Those are my friends units She has an Olivia too* I'm thinking something along the lines of using Lancina's spurs and Nino to tank the mages (she's +Spd/-Res and Fury) Still need this? I can see what I can come up with, I guess. I don't actually have every unit though, from that particular list, I don't have Summer Robin, and my Summer Corrin is probably incompatible with any strategy that would work for your friend, unfortunately. That said...I do like putting together "for fun" strats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already figured it out LOL She's going to use Ike, jeroge (brave bow inherited), Nino, and Nowi She just needs to train Nowi up tomorrow (my friend is UK time so she's sleeping now) The strategy is to let Nino tank the mages on the breakable block, Jeroge kills the green mage with hardy bearing, Nino steps back and kills Ephraim, while Nowi draws back Nino to safety Ike repositions jeorge and is in range of the Dagger and Sword Guy. From there it's pretty simple if you want to try it yourself~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have to see about building unmerged, no-inheritance versions of "good" units after "Operation: Death From Above, Arena Edition" is finished (only 100k feathers to go! ........ yeah it's going to be a while). Edit: Just peeked at Maria's stat line...why is she that fast? O.o ... not gonna lie, my first instinct after that would have been to try putting something weird like Maria, Jeorge, [someone], [someone else] together =P .

Kaden Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) 10 hours ago, mampfoid said: I followed your link and there was also a 4* only (Gordin, 2 Olivia, Nino) clear without SI/seals/merges/support: -snip- Nino and Gordin aren't free units, but they are pretty common. With how Infernal maps are, 4* free units-only strategies are very limiting. Off the top of my head, Alm & Celica's BHB and Berkut, Clarisse, Legion, Lloyd, and Narcian's GHB have 4*-only or lower strategies. Granted, most of those maps have defensive tiles. Cecilia & Lilina and Eirika & Ephraim's BHBs and Valter's GHB do not with Valter's being a zerg rush with fliers map making it even more difficult since neither Gordin or Klein have been made free units. Anyway, @Arcanite, what units does your friend even have? If she has all the free units so far, 5* Clive, 4* Donnel, Olivia, and Ursula might be the cheapest way to beat this map. Otherwise, maybe BH Lyn -- assuming she chose her or has one -- and 5* Camus will work with Berkut even though he's a blue and not a red like Eliwood. Edit: Never mind.

O.o ... not gonna lie, my first instinct after that would have been to try putting something weird like Maria, Jeorge, [someone], [someone else] together =P . Okay @Arcanite, I know you have your strategy already, but I couldn't resist putting together a clear based on Maria tanking the mages; the idea was too intriguing. Team and requirements (yes, there are requirements, unfortunately) -- Spoiler Nino: +Atk OR Atk-boosting inheritance +3 buff OR +2 buff and Atk +1 seal Spoiler Ignore the +10, it's unneeded. Maria: Reach 34+ Spd. Achievable with neutral Spd 5* or some combination of Spurs and/or Seals (my first attempt was with a heavily merged Sealife Tome Summer Corrin). Spoiler Abel: Whatever spurs or buffs needed to get Maria and Nino to the buff/Spd requirements. I used Spur Spd 1 and the Fortify Res 1 seal, but with a 5* Maria any old Lv. 2 (or Lv. 1 Hone Atk) buff will do it. Brave Lance and Swordbreaker (natural) Spoiler Merges not necessary. Quad-ing Eirika with +0 is perfectly fine for ORKOing her =P . Ike: Vantage and Quickened Pulse. Not -Atk, -Def, or -HP. That's a lot of restrictions, unfortunately, but...MARIA. Spoiler And the battle in pictures (& words): Spoiler T1: Nino breaks the wall. Maria enters enemy range. Abel moves in behind her. Ike does nothing. Spoiler T1 EP: Blue mage attacks Maria. Other enemies advance. Spoiler T2: Ike moves diagonally up and left. Nino moves left one space. Maria moves down two spaces. Abel moves below her and Repositions her out of danger. Spoiler T2 EP: Blue Mage rallies the Thief. The Thief attacks Ike, activating Vantage and charging Aether. The Sword Cav attacks and gets Vantage'd, and Ike heals enough to survive (neutral Atk heals 2 less and should survive with 2 HP). The Green Tome Cav attacks Ike and gets Vantage-OHKO'd (neutral Atk also achieves this). Ephraim and Eirika advance. Spoiler T3: Abel ORKO's Eirika from the right. Spoiler Nino ORKOs Ephraim from below. Spoiler Ike finishes the Sword Cav from the right. Spoiler Maria heals Nino for the heck of it. Spoiler T3 EP: The Blue Mage rallies the Thief, who proceeds to suicide into Ike. Spoiler T4 and possibly 5: Finish the blue mage however you please. I used a combination of Ike and Abel.

Give me an interesting enough character pool to work with and I'm good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roflolxp54 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Renais Twins BHB is being rerun! The quests took me a few tries only because I was trying to clear all quests in a single run. Used the following units on the Lunatic map: 5* Sharena: Reposition, Escutcheon, Swordbreaker 3 (ORKOs Eirika and the sword cavalier) 5* Anna: Reposition, Moonbow, Darting Blow 3 (finishes off Ephraim; tanks and ORKOs blue mage) +Spd/-Res Deirdre: Draw Back, Glacies, Fury 3, HP +3 (baits and ORKOs green mage cavalier) +HP/-Spd PA Shigure: Hone Atk 3, Spur Atk 1 (Sing+buffs support; lands the first blow on Ephraim, which puts Ephraim in KO range for Anna) Edited January 6, 2018 by Roflolxp54 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLordIvy Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Eggh I’ve got a headache I’ll do the quests in the morning but I did do this real quick. I really do remember Infernal being maddening during the first run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexmender Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Hmm...Turns out a 3* Anna with only Darting Blow 1 can double Ephraim on Lunatic to kill him. Thought this would be harder but I overestimated this BHB. I did everything with my Eirika, Tailtiu, PA!Olivia and Sharena/Anna. Took 2 runs to get everything.

Technically, we should up the challenge now to infantry only because of the infantry only quest because the original challenge was "all quests cleared on a single Infernal run" plus the unit and weapon restrictions. So, that wasn't too bad, though I did bring Fae out to play because Myrrh isn't in this game yet. +10 Fae [+Atk, -Def] (Lightning Breath+ [Def], Reposition, Aether, Triangle Adept 3, Quick Riposte 3, Fortify Dragons, Distant Def 3)+0 Sharena [=] (Fensalir, Rally Atk, Speed +3, Hone Def 3, Close Def 3)+6 Lachesis [+Spd, -Def] (Absorb+, Physic+, Solid-Earth Balm, Spur Res 3, Atk Ploy 3)+0 Anna [=] (Noatun, Astra, Vantage, Spur Res 3) The usual imgur gallery with annotations: https://imgur.com/a/2OIvP.

Oh, really? I somehow missed that... I just did the quests with infantry anyway lol. It's kinda sad that Infantry are so vanilla and get no help now... Only Infantry Pulse ever came out. Maybe we'll get a Infantry Spectrum or something someday. Damn dragons are ridiculous now. Do you still run your dragon core in Arena?

LordFrigid Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) I did it the lazy way and adapted the strategy I posted earlier on this page. 5* Sharena - Fensalir, Reposition, Moonbow, Fury 3, Swordbreaker 1, Hone Atk 3, Spur Spd 1 seal 5* Anna - Nóatún, Reposition, Glacies, Fury 3, Wings of Mercy 3, Spur Spd 3 5* Ike: Young Mercenary (+Atk/-Res) - Ragnell, Reposition, Aether, Heavy Blade 3, Vantage 3, Hone Spd 3, Quickened Pulse seal 4* Maria (+Def/-Atk) - Panic, Rehabilitate, Imbue, Live to Serve 1, Fortify Res 2, Squad Ace D 3 seal. 3 cheers for Maria!

I use Windows's Character Map program, which basically gives you every single displayable character in any given font. The program from a user interface perspective is complete garbage (which is to be expected because the UI hasn't changed at all since Windows 95), but it gets the job done.
