Rex Glacies Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Surtr is the ruler of Muspelheim, a realm of fire in Norse mythology. It is largely the opposite of Nifelheim, the realm of ice and snow. Just to shed a bit of light on the Nordic inspiration on this game. It should also be noted that Surtr's invasion of Midgard (i.e. Earth) was one of the many indicators of Ragnarok and the end of the world, if anyone is interested in the story.

LuxSpes Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 The one thing about weapon upgrade is that the material requirement is pretty high. Hopefully it won't be too hard to get them in a reasonable manner. Just now, Alkaid said: I'm only kinda upset that I blew so many orbs on Ayra's bait banner just for her to be at 8% on this upcoming one. That stings a bit. I feel worse for the people that really whaled hard for her amidst the Eldigan scourge. There's 12 focus characters though, which mean the chance of getting Ayra is 0.67%. In contrast, Ayra had a 1% chance of appearing on the TT banner. Not to mention that there are two other red characters on the banner, though Celica and Ike are quite good.

Lightchao42 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Wait, Lute and Dorcas are in the same banner? It's time to pull a Monsoon and... It's nice to see that Elsa is in Fire Emblem now, she was always one of my favorite Disney characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoirCore Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Little side note, but I just realized Cindy Robinson likely voices Feh. Not the first time she's voiced a game's primary mascot... :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Marth 64 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) Oh by the way, I just looked at the Trailer for the three characters. Lute is voiced by Brina Palencia (the same voice actress who voiced Ayra from The Genealogy of the Holy War) Lani Minella is returning voicing Mia (she looks like she managed to get into Cup of Tea Productions since she didn't return voicing Lyn and Sarah was voicing Mist), I could see she could voice Micaiah and Rolf incase if they add them. Dorcas doesn't have his voice actor's name shown in the trailer Edited November 15, 2017 by King Marth 64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 So a 12-character banner is fucking weird, but an 8% focus rate helps with the odds of getting ones you want. Taking away the regular 5* rate for the banner is a fair trade, to be honest, since it's largely other low-priority units, like any banner units you're not going for. Each color has three heroes: Ike/Celica/Ayra for red, b!Caeda/sf!Xander/Fjorn for blue, Hector/Dierdre/s!Camilla for green, and bh!Lyn/Genny/b!Cordelia for colorless. Your odds of getting the one you want while pulling their color are a bit less than if they were one of four characters on a 3% banner, but not much more: it'd basically even out if the rate was 9%, but at 8% you lose a tiny bit of chance. Personally, I'm not really planning on going for it, since what I really need is Henry and other non-infantry mages. Hector, s!Camilla, and bh!Lyn are all noteworthy, but I have all three of them already. Still, it's good to know that if I do miss Henry, he might not take a whole year to come back.

DefyingFates Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I legitimately burst into applause when the stream ended, this is amazing! I'm not even mad at the lack of Micaiah since the new CYL focus is half FE8 Heroes (hint: check my favourite game)...and Joshua is the TT Reward, so I can just pull Blues for Lute! I'm so thrilled and can't wait to see what the scenario for the TT is, since it seems to be focusing on FE8 - maybe the final map is the one where you meet Joshua? The staff buffs are also awesome, as are the Special buffs and the weapon forgery. I imagine they'll buff daggers next time alongside Sieglinde (come on, Ephraim, share with you sister). We can all have Slaying Weapons now! And that's not even getting into us all getting a free 5* Hero and a "super Hero Fest" with an 8% start rate, no off-focus units and returning Seasonals, with the only one blocking Bridelia and B!Lyn being each other! I'm looking forward to Book 2: Fjorm and that new cutscene look awesome and it looks like Kiran sees some action on the field, maybe they'll be playable soon? And of course, finally we can buff Legendary Weapons to their upgraded forms. You can finally be useful, my +! Seliph! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenzen12 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Poor Sharena. Her supposedly new "bestie" looks like is gonna shaft our cute princess hard. Why is Fjolrm also Lance infantry again? Well she is also cute so I forgive her. As for forge, it sound pretty meta changing, well my Sol Katti will be first on list. Hmm was Armads also listed?

Nope heard it too. 16 minutes ago, Armagon said: God, i want Mia so bad. She looks so cute. Joshua being the Tempest Trial reward is nice, and bonus points for sharing his voice actor with Natsu Dragneel. Staff buff, Special buff, weapon forging. What is competitive? What is balance? Fjorum looks amazing. And she's guaranteed. Good. And Sutor looks great too. Funny, we got Sutor in Thor: Ragnarok and now we got Sutor in Fire Emblem. Was it wrong that I wanted him to be voice Dante from DMC? 14 minutes ago, NoirCore said: I'm sorta surprised they got Lani Minella for Mia, her original VA in RD. Can't help but feel like she sounds a bit too older than she looks like Smash Lyn was... Might've work better when if they use Mia from Radiant dawn but I don't know what she looks like in that one. 14 minutes ago, Alkaid said: I hope they go down in order. I need CYL Tharja and Camilla. Right now. CYL Hector would probably make the game explode as well. If Hector uses a sword would that make him any different from Zephiel or BK?

That's true, though I'd take getting pity broken by Ike or Celica over Elidgan any day. I don't know who to pull for on this thing. Try for a +atk B Cordelia? Get Celica since I don't have her?

Hawk King Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Holy shit that was a lot of great news. My wallet is in for some serious trouble. I'm glad I don't have to sacrifice Nephenee to my newly built Steady Breath +10 Lukas. I almost went ahead with it too... Hahaha, Dorcas got a major makeover. I expected him to be Arden levels of ugly. Lute and Joshua hype! More SS characters are always welcome, but why are all of the TT reward characters Swordies?? Seasonal units coming back is awesome. I just hope they are split into more than 1 banner. Or no more than 2 per color. I didn't get a good look at which ones were shown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILikeKirbys Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) So, um, I just typed this while the stream was on (and then added to it once it was over), so it's a bit hype-y. Also there may be spoilers, so it's in a spoiler. And it's kinda long. Sorry 'bout that. Spoiler JOSHUA IS A TEMPEST TRIAL REWARD YES ...So does that mean we'll be able to pick one of the 3 CYL Update heroes for free like the last CYLs? I hope so. Also OH MY GOD MY HEALERS JUST GOT BETTER SAKURA GOT BETTER ALL THE HEALERS GOT BETTER MY GENNY JUST GOT MUCH BETTER I REALLY HOPE ABSORB+ IS GOOD SO SHE CAN RUN IT BUT EVEN IF SHE CAN'T FEAR+/SLOW+ MIGHT WORK TOO SINCE THEY'RE 12 MTI'M SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS YOU GUYS ...THEY MADE NOONTIME AND SOL FASTER YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES I FINALLY HAVE A USE FOR ALL THOSE DAMN OGMAS I KEEP GETTING WHEN I PULL REDS AND FINALLY THE BARRACKS ARE GONNA GET BIGGER WITHOUT BURNING ORBS FOR IT WOOHOO! AND STAMINA COSTS ARE GOING DOWN I APPROVE OF THIS WHOLEHEARTEDLY ...They added forging? Wut? Still, more chapters isn't something I'm gonna complain about. ...Oooooooooh, I like where this is going. Especially if unique weapons can get new skills on 'em. My Roy'll hopefully get something good on his Binding Blade Although, new currencys... I'm gonna get annoyed by that. I know it. AND THEY DID IT THEY JUST ALLOWED YOU TO GIVE KILLING EDGE+ UNITS SLAYING EDGES I WAS KINDA HOPING THEY'D DO IT I REALLY LIKE THIS AND SELIPH CAN GET DIVINE TYRFING THAT MIGHT JUST MAKE ME REGRET THROWING HIM OUT ALL THOSE TIMES AND MY JULIA'S GONNA GET DIVINE NAGA THAT'S GONNA MAKE CHOOSING BETWEEN HER AND DEIRDRE EVEN MORE DIFFICULT DAMNIT INTSYS STOP MAKING MY CHOICES HARDER ...They're gonna give us Zacharias in a summoning pool? Okay. Damnit they said "she" so it can't be Zacharias ...8% 5-STAR RATE8%ARE YOU FOR REALHOLY SHIT THAT'S AWESOMEWould be more awesome if I didn't already have most of the seasonal units making a return on this banner, but still Oh hey, a trailer thing And Alfonse getting to fight reminds me that I wanted to build him and Sharena up once, before I got distracted by HEY IS THAT THE SUMMONER HAVING A GUNFIGHT WITH VERONICA?...How does that even work? Shouldn't the Summoner just shoot heroes at her? Unless that's what's happening, and Veronica is killing them after they get one attack on her because they're Level 1 since Summoner just summoned them so he's just pulling the trigger and praying he gets a 5-Star with high ATK to target her lower DEF stat to eventually wear her down and WOW I am putting way too much thought into this THAT DUDE IS HOLDING A SUN HE'S SPIRIT BOMBING THEM WITH A SUN AND ICEGIRL COUNTERS WITH UNLIMITED ICE WORKS THAT ACTUALLY LOOKS REALLY COOL AND THERE'S NO WAY WE'LL BE ABLE TO REPLICATE IT IN GAME AND THAT MILDLY ANNOYS ME BUT OTHER THAN THAT I LIKED THISI hope I got that Unlimited Blade Works reference right, it's like one of the two things I know about Fate ...King Surtr? I'm getting Norse vibes... which I probably should've gotten sooner, in hindsight, given there's already a Loki. Not sure where Fjorm's name is from tho. Or what it means (TO GOOGLE TRANSLATE!). But she looks cool. We're gonna get Fjorm for free? Nice. ...Did she just completely ignore a magic attack and then retaliate with a flippy thing? I like her already. So, yeah. I'm pretty excited about this. Good show Intsys. Also Feh is adorable, and I don't usually say that about owls that aren't Rowlet.

Only blue seems bad here since you might get Spring Xander (who's both weak and one of the least liked seasonals) while trying for a non-neutral Fjorn.

My beautiful Eirika deserves love too! The list they showed of legendary weapons that can be refined only had weapons available on 5* exclusive units, so that might be why they left out Eirika. TThey don't seem to have the same restriction on evolving weapons since Durandal, Excalibur and Tyrfing can all be upgraded to their shinier version despite being on 3* and 4* characters.
