I have a random urge to +10 Luke for god knows what reason. So I thought i'd save up for his revival banner when it next rotates around. I already have him at +2 merges as well from random pity breakers over the years, and a recent free summon of him off his previous rerun last week. And if anyone asks "But why Luke?" Because I can. In the first year, I remember spending about 2,200 or 2,300 Orbs on BB!Cordelia on the Bridal Blessings Focus and I got 22 copies of her, and that is with regular rates with color sharing, so it averages to about 100 Orbs per copy. If you are doing units from Revival Foci, it should be cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you got very lucky, that's not representative at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also got around 18 or 19 BB!Lyns, and accounting for that, that is 50 Orbs per 5* Focus unit and that seems a bit unrealistic, so maybe I misremembered. I will have to go back and check, although I am not sure if my bank statements go back that far. I specifically remember spending 2,200 to 2,300 Orbs on hunting for a specific Trait in the first year, so if it was not BB!Cordelia, then it would have to be NS!F!Corrin.

Faellin Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Got an Igrene duplicate pitybreaker from the plegia banner, and thinking who would make good use of that fodder. I already have a +attack copy of her that I use for other things, so no need to merge. My current idea was Sothe, already have him heavily merged at +7 with a special spiral build. So this leaves me open for L&D4 and pulse smoke fodder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Player phase units simply do not need it since units built to retaliate with an immediate Special trigger cannot be stopped via Pulse Smoke.

Xenomata Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) Are there any 4* gen 1 units or Grail units that I should really consider building at this point in FEH? Below are the ones I have already built and actively still use in various modes (and looking again I realize all the ones I still use are all +10, so... yeah): Fates Selena (TA Green Armor killer) Sophia (EP tank) Lukas (physical melee tank) Oboro (mixed melee tank) Roderick (melee firesweep nuke) Cordelia (brave galeforce nuke) Nowi (mixed DC EP tank) Odin (spectrum Link Smite, also has CC for pretty good performance on EP) Legion (galeforce offensive) Cherche (Brave nuke) Fae (mixed DC EP tank) Nino (PP Bladetome nuke) Gordin (Brave nuke) Wrys (inflicts Sabotage Atk, Res tank, Melancholy+ staff) I really don't have any solid plans for who to build next, I need inspiration. I almost considered Reinhardt, but I'm not sure if he's even still considered any good. Edited January 19, 2021 by Xenomata Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seliph is amazing with divine tyrfang giving garunteed followups. And his regular refine makes him a unique miracle tank. The only other unit like this is Hel, but Seliph has the advantage of being easily merged. Male Corrin is a fantastic support unit. Being a potent babysitter unit. Also solid all around stats that leave him open to alot of flexible builds. Hawkeye hits hard, is decently bulky, and has a lull refine. Overall solid.

Black Knight, Gwendolyn, and Sheena are great too, if you're down with armors. Gwendolyn and Sheena need some help getting good skills, but BK is pretty great even without that. I also use Merric in AR-D as an Infantry Pulse nuke alongside Gordin, but he's a bit more niche than the others. Of the +10 units in my sig, Cherche is the only one I've really been unhappy with.

I lean towards player phase units myself, so I recommend Eliwood, ITM!Hana, and/or Raven for Galeforce, and maybe Lon'qu, Ogma, Caeda, and Clair too. I also recommend Tharja since she is basically red Nino. Tailtiu plays similar to Lysithea if you can get Time's Pulse on her and get her to below 75% HP. Reinhardt is also okay, but slow Braves feels a little lacking in my opinion compared to fast Braves lately. Hitting twice slightly harder does not seem to do as much damage as hitting four times with a guaranteed Luna trigger. Klein is also decent, although he really needs the Flowers to compete effectively. Edited January 19, 2021 by XRay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSilentChloey Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Building Male Kris (Axe Cav) what C skill should he have for a mixed team? He's got Lull Atk/Spd 3 and Atk/Spd Solo 3 in his B and A skill slots respectively (that I had on hand). Since he's a cav he can't get times pulse (which I think would be perfect but alas, it's not to be). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It significantly increases his bulk when paired with Plegian Axe, and he will need that bulk as a dual phase unit. Since he should not be near allies a lot, I would not bother with Hones or Tactics.

I don't see him as dual phase though. I'm thinking more enemy phase with his build tbh. @Othin It's about the Vault of Heaven with there being an error and if you had bookmark data to try resuming. In addition they said if you lost Aether due to the error to contact Customer Support from FaQ Etc menu. They're assuming the issue is fixed thus far.

Then I do not recommend Solos for A since Stances can provide nearly the same amount of stats, is not dependent on positioning, and provides Guard effect on top. Even then, I I would still recommend Atk Smoke due to its synergy with Plegian Axe. Since you gave him Solo on A, you might as well use him as a dual phase unit and let him do player phase from time to time when an opportunity arises.

SuperNova125 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) My Ashnard's build is the following. His weapon, Reposition, Sol/Aether, Distand Ward, QR, Atk/Def Rein. What's a good seal for this build? I am thinking deflect missile to protect him from bows and daggers. Any suggestions?

I would not bother with Deflect Missile if he cannot counter attack against them archers and thieves. I do not recommend making builds strictly to tank things and not fight back, as that can lead to the enemy getting Danced/Sung to and wipe out your tank with a Special trigger. I would go with Mirror Stance so he can better fight off mages. Personally, I would not bother with any Wards or Foils as they are inferior to Counters. The only reason to go for Wards and Foils is if the unit has bulk that is so lopsided that it is not worth trying to salvage the weaker side of its bulk. Ashnard is a fully capable mixed tank, so Distant Counter is much more appropriate in my opinion. I would only give Distant Ward to maybe someone like Selkie.
