Astellius Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 (edited) *pant pant* After much frustration, I managed to score a personal best of 4830! I did it with a mixed run of Hector, Camus, Xander, and Celica for the first 3 matches, and then Camus, Xander, Cecilia, and Reinhardt for the last 4. I really don't like using Hector all that much, but his presence boosts the strength of the enemies I face to an average of 690. Tier 20, here I come! My previous score was 4,810, which, as of earlier, was just above the cutoff mark for advancing to Tier 20 -- which certainly won't last. My defense team of Est, Azura, Camus, and Reinhardt has scored twice this week. It's the first time I've tried color-stacking. Interesting to see it work! I'm sure that all the Arena quests have something to do with it. Edited July 1, 2017 by Astellius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any evidence to support that (e.g., attrition rate trends for this score)? I'm nearly certain it will be enough. I had 4,810 earlier today and was ranked at around ~4,000 in the tier, so even that was above the cutoff for the moment. It gets significantly harder to obtain higher scores than even 4,820 if you don't have merged units or ones with high BST. 4,830 is ranked 2,681, which has a significant buffer between it and the cutoff. There's only a couple days left, it should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last days the people Plays hard. I dont have merged units Too, and not have horses, amd hectors and reinhards and dollars jajaja but It doenst matter for nintendo.

Kuroi Tsubasa Tenshi Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 It'll probably be pretty tight if those scores do make it. My 4842 was fixing to be around 3500/4100 by the end of the season. A gap of 12 points is a pretty big gap in ranking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After I am done with my triple Reinhardt defense team. I think I will try to make a triple Hector defense team. If those Hectors all had Ward Armor, would that have been more difficult for you? thanks! omg..noooo! why are you doing these thiiiings?! (but yes Ward Armor would've probably been difficult, maybe impossible for me..i don't think -Atk Corn can ORKO a warded Hector even with the Moonbow...make those Hectors hard to kill) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am only going to use three Hectors though, so if you do face it, it should not be too bad. Haha. I need the last slot to be filled with a bonus unit.

I could have gunned for 5,180 again, but 鏡mochi's team dropped from 740 points to 738 halfway through the run, and I ended up spending a bit more than 50 orbs hunting for わぁい's team before I gave up and just settled for lower scores on my last 3 matches. Ugh. That's 50 orbs I could have saved to expand my barracks when update 1.5 hits. Tier 20 Score: 5,174 (deathless, 728-740) Rank: 17 (out of 4,374, 0.4%, 20→20) Defense: 598 (9) Offense team: +10 Hinoka [+Atk, -HP] (Brave Lance+, Blazing Wind, Life and Death 3, Hone Fliers)+10 Tiki (Mystery) [+Spd, -HP] (Lightning Breath+, Reciprocal Aid, Aether, Triangle Adept 3, Quick Riposte 3, Fortify Dragons)+10 Ninian [+Spd, -Res] (Lightning Breath+, Dance, Aether, Triangle Adept 3, Escape Route 3, Fortify Dragons, S HP +3)+10 Fae [+Atk, -Def] (Lightning Breath+, Reciprocal Aid, Aether, Triangle Adept 3, Quick Riposte 3, Fortify Dragons) Since we had to do a million Arena runs for the Voting Gauntlet quests, I got bored and ended up trying again. This only took something like all of my dueling sword restores and 5-10 orbs this time. Spoiler Tier 20 Score: 5,180 (deathless, 728-740) Rank: 1 (out of 4,403, 0%, 20→20) Defense: 598 (10+) I ended up finding the teams worth 740 points a lot more easily this time. 鏡mochi's team is back up at 740 points (previously 738) and @Whistle's team got there, too (previously 728?). I think I ended up beating 鏡mochi's team 3 times and Whistle's team 4 times (or maybe it was the other way around). I don't know where わぁい's team was hiding, though. Whistle, though, 'grats on your defense team. Honestly, it wasn't hard to beat at all since my team is basically all Triangle Adept dragons, but it was pretty fun. I realized halfway through my second match that even without Fortify Dragons, Tiki still took zero damage from Hector and could double attack on player phase, which helped me deal with Panic Ploy a bit more effectively. Basically, I could separate Tiki from the rest of my team and let her charge in and roast Hectors unbuffed on her own accord. One thing I found interesting was that all three of the 740-point teams are running two green armors, which means Tiki has Aether fully charged after the killing the second one, which lets her one-round kill Draug since Ninian isn't fast enough to double attack, and I'm not using Nowi on this team.

Hawk King Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 @Ice Dragon so is 740 the highest possible score? Or is that just the highest you can find with your team? Grats on the #1 rank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grats on the #1 rank. I do believe it's possible to get more than 740 per run, but that requires there to be someone with a defense team worth more than 740 points to begin with, and I don't think any such team currently exists. 1 minute ago, Rafiel's Aria said: *bows down to @Ice Dragon* This is the coolest thing ever.

Rezzy Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I spent 3 Crests just trying to get better match-ups, and it simply refused to give me any match-ups above 688. I finally got a 692, but this reminds me why I don't go fishing for better scores. That only raised my score to 4830, which is rank 2725/4097. I guess we'll see if that's enough to move up to Tier 20 next week, but this is getting a bit annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuroi Tsubasa Tenshi Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I also typically don't fish, especially when we get tons of Arena quests like this that encourage just doing a large number of matches. When there's dozens of matches involved, I figure one of these strings has to give me something at least halfway decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pretty much never fish, but all of my scores were still giving me just 4828, which I guess is about 689-690 average. And for some reason, even when I did fish I was getting even worse ones than normal. I went and promoted my extra Ursula to merge, and for some reason, my match-ups are consistently worse than before the merger.

Kuroi Tsubasa Tenshi Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 That mostly sounds like bad luck. I've been kinda missing out on big ones the last few streaks. Last week and the one before I got one or two 698-700s in my scores, but I haven't seen much above 694. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a couple good matches to finish out the latest streak, but I wound up with the exact same score of 4830. I might finish out another before the season ends.

MonkeyCheez3K Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I'm surprised that I am apparently at the edge of staying in T20 with my score of 4870, with still a bit more than 200 spots to lose before I fall off. Did not expect the possibility to present itself so soon and assumed a necessity for more players at this rank. Anyone knows where the threshold was for staying in T20 last season? Admittedly, I got lucky with Hinoka being a bonus unit, but I wouldn't mind the extra 1k feathers twice in a row. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Should I worry about Nino more than I do Hector? I see Hector in like 90% of the teams, and Nino's only really about half of those or whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srsly though since hes an Armor and he normally did not run Wary/Brave Hector isnt really a threat unless your team is just poorly built. You happen to have Sanaki to one shot him so he(and Nino) shouldnt be a problem on their own Hes common but that only goes as far as affecting you by giving free win 80% of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
