dragonlordsd Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 So, here's a question someone's probably answered: Is it worth it to wait to get the third level of quick riposte, or should I just go with 2? In my case, I'm using it specifically for Xander, and I have a few 4 star Tsubaki's I can just throw away. But is the extra 10% hp a big enough difference? Hector handles just fine only having 2 on his weapon, and 5-starring a Tsubaki is a big investment. How do the numbers play out on this?

Magical Glace Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Xander has 44 HP at 5* level 40 according to the wiki. 80% is 35.2, 70% is 30.8. So how it depends on how often he finds himself in that 31-35 HP range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locke087 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) 2 works well enough I have it on a number of units (Sharena, Cecilia, and soon Xander) though I recommend a defensive special to go along with it so you can maintain it longer (Reciprocal Aid/Ardent Sacrifice or a Healer is also helpful for this) 3 is better if you have a TON of feathers but in my opinion you have bigger fish to fry.

Thanks, that sounds good. I'm not entirely sure how many units hit exactly in the 9-13 damage range against him, but as you point out, there are probably better things to do with those feathers. I don't usually use much healing, I just mainly rely on Julia to keep people up, but that's worth looking into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astellius Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 The difference sounds pretty trivial, certainly doesn't seem worth it to me to throw down 20k feathers for. I don't think I would even really notice the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Dragon Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Test him out and see how much damage you're generally taking from the opponents you intend him to fight. If you find yourself commonly in the 70-80% range, then it's worth it to at least consider upgrading to Quick Riposte 3. If enemies are dealing more damage than that on a consistent basis, there's no reason to upgrade to Quick Riposte 3 immediately. Furthermore, ask yourself if you have other units that could use those feathers more effectively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
