Fire Emblem Fan Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 15 hours ago, Ice Dragon said: Only if you consistently see opponents with Spd-boosting skills that are active on enemy phase (Darting Stance, Life and Death, Fury, Atk/Spd Solo, etc.). Simply giving her the Darting Blow Sacred Seal is sufficient to meet the Spd check on most relevant opponents, and even that might not be necessary (unless you see a lot of Sothis or Dark Corrin) since her base kit already gives her 42 Spd on initiation before accounting for buffs. If you're currently using +Atk right now, keep that Asset and test it out to see if you really need the extra Spd or not before changing it (that's what I'm planning on doing). EDIT: @Fire Emblem Fan Brain fart. Mulagir's effect activates based on stats at the start of combat, so her default Swift Sparrow wouldn't do anything, but neither would any enemy combat buffs. That gives her 38 Spd on initiation before buffs, which is a bit less impressive, but Hone Cavalry does bring that up to 44 Spd. If you're using Fury or Life and Death instead of Swift Sparrow, you can push that even higher. The point about Fury and Life and Death being less common these days with most fast units getting a default skill that gives a combat buff still applies, though. Would skills like Phantom Speed change anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Dragon Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 11 minutes ago, Fire Emblem Fan said: Would skills like Phantom Speed change anything? Yes. Phantom Spd applies to all direct comparisons related to skills (any time you have a mathematical expression containing 2 different units' Spd stats), so Mulagir would count Lyn's Spd as 10 higher than it actually is. The downside is that Phantom Spd doesn't apply to getting a natural follow-up and also costs you your Sacred Seal slot (which could have been used for something like Sturdy Blow). (When Chill Spd was released, Phantom Spd did not apply to Chill Spd (which doesn't have a mathematical expression for the comparison), but I don't know if that has changed at all since then.)

mampfoid Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 With the new refine, the DEF boon of my B!Ike (+DEF/-SPD) isn't all that useful anymore. I could merge him to +1 with neutral nature and +HP/-RES as my further options (one copy will remain fodder), if that would give him any significant boost in performance. +DEF isn't that great anymore, but perhaps -SPD would be smart to maintain?

Parrhesia Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) Nah. Pretty much any modern PP unit will double Grike anyway at 28 (maybe 29 after merge, though I doubt it) speed. There might be a few edge cases in HBs, but there'll be more edge cases where the extra durability and damage keeps him alive. Besides, Grike doesn't actively need to be doubled (unlike, say, QR Lukas, who relies on getting hit twice so his second counter is Ignis), it's just that the second hit (should it arrive) is mostly neutered. Obviously it helps Aether timing if you don't run QR on him, but it's not essential. Edited September 6, 2019 by Parrhesia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean the extra durability from a +HP boon? If not, I'll just leave him unmerged. 20 minutes ago, Parrhesia said: Besides, Grike doesn't actively need to be doubled [...] Obviously it helps Aether timing if you don't run QR on him, but it's not essential. No need, but that's the fun part of his new refine: the second hit gives him more advantage (-2 CD) than disadvantage (low amount of damage).

Humanoid Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) @mampfoid Pondering my own copy too. My only options are +Def -Res and Neutral. If I merge, I think Neutral wins because it gives an extra point of Atk. Neutral +1: 45/38/28/36/20 Def boon +1: 44/37/28/38/20 However if I choose to fodder one copy off instead to Fae, it's a bit of a wash. Balanced bulk is nice perhaps but without Distant Counter it's not like I'll be using him to bait mages all that often. Normally when I have a 50/50 choice like this, I go be seniority - i.e. the unit that has been in my barracks longer. However I think in this case it makes sense to keep the neutral one because of F2P guides. Edited September 6, 2019 by Humanoid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll survive a lot of mages and gets his Aether charged for a PP one-shot. F2P guides won't influence my decision. I think I'll just keep my +DEF copy, because the difference isn't that big anyway.

BoaFerox Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I just got a +spd -res Mareeta as my free pull. I imagine this is probably her best IV spread, so I was wondering what would be the best way to build/use her? I could also fodder her for Flashing Blade 4 and Null Follow-Up. I have an extra Mia that I could use to give both skills in that case, but are there any other noteworthy units that even wants Flashing Blade 4? If I'm not foddering Mareeta I think I'll merge the extra Mia as well, but then I need to decide between +atk and +spd for her. What does she want the most?

Flashing Blade 4 with the Darting Blow 3 Sacred Seal is competitive when compared to builds without 4th-tier skills, but 4th-tier passive A skills are so strong that it's better to use them over Flashing Blade if you have spare copies of them. The only reason you'd want to use Flashing Blade 4 is if you're never planning on giving the unit a better skill (or if you're running a Galeforce team that needs more than one unit with Flashing Blade). For example: Swift Sparrow 2 + Flashing Blade 3 = Atk +4, Spd +4, conditional Special charge rate boost Flashing Blade 4 + Darting Blow 3 = conditional Damage +5, Spd +6, conditional Special charge rate boost Swift Sparrow 3 + Flashing Blade 3 = Atk +6, Spd +7, conditional Special charge rate boost Atk/Spd Push 4 + Flashing Blade 3 = conditional Atk +7, conditional Spd +7, conditional Special charge rate boost, recoil Keeping and using Mareeta is probably more worth it than handing out Flashing Blade 4.

Instaburst Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) I think foddering her while you got perfect IV spread is a waste but if you're not interested in here, many units benefits from flashing blade 4.

What does she want the most? For Aether Raids, I generally go with +Spd for fast nukes. The only reason I would go with +Atk is if the unit is running double Brazen Atk/Spd or a similar set up that pumps out a shit ton of Spd. The only unit that comes to my mind so far is just Celica who can achieve 57 Spd at merge +0 with neutral and Life and Death. For units who are just super fast in the normal way like SK!Alm and Mareeta and you do not plan to give them Brazen Atk/Spd 7, I would go +Spd. If you are prioritizing clearing Abyssal maps rather than PvP, +Atk might be better since enemies outside of Aether Raids are generally much slower. 1 hour ago, Instaburst said: Some units which can double instantly benefits greatly from flashing blade 4, like Lewyn per exemple. Flashing Blade is pretty bad on Lewyn in my opinion.

For the moment I'm thinking about using Lewyn and Dancer Ishtar so I have 2 places left in my team. Hones and Fortifies are perfectly fine because they are extremely flexible. For Player Phase nukes, all you really need is just Hone Atk/Atk Tactic-Hone Spd combo on a Dancer/Singer. Since Lewyn is not a Blade mage and he got reverse Desperation, there is no point in giving him bonus buffs for Def/Res. If you are using a Player Phase team, the only reason to bring bonus buffs for Def/Res is if you are utilizing Blade mages. And if you are using a Player Phase team, I highly recommend bringing a second Dancer/Singer rather than a buff bot. Being able to Dance/Sing-Reposition twice per turn is far more important than giving your Blade mage an extra 4 Atk from using Titania with Def Tactic. Additionally, Marth, Kaden, and M!Corrin have Drive effects, which means they cannot support nukes who move more than 2 spaces away, which is pretty often. Drive units are better on an Enemy Phase team composition to be immune to Panic. For a nuke's C slot, Drive Spd and Savage Blow are cheap, effective C skills. Drive Spd can be used to support Lewyn's ally nuke if they are close. Savage Blow is essentially Drive Atk 6, but Lewyn can also take advantage of it himself.

If you are running Steady Stance, BH!Ike is vulnerable to both groups.
