Ice Dragon Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 4 minutes ago, Rezzy said: Per usual I'm behind the times, since I've been at work until now, but are the new Fighter Skills going to be Armor-locked, since they sound a bit like Wary Fighter? The Japanese names often give a better clue, and we've also got the confusion of whether +1 means the special triggers faster or slower. The names of the skills in both English and Japanese follow the same pattern as Wary Fighter, and the skill icons use the same some-arrangement-of-circles motif. It's pretty much guaranteed that they're locked to armors. My explanation of skills that affect the special trigger is here: 5 hours ago, Ice Dragon said: Also, since I saw this mentioned over and over in the past however-many hours, there is a difference between "cooldown count±1" and "cooldown charge±1". "Count" refers to the actual value on the gauge and "charge" refers to the amount of cooldown consumed ("charged") per action. 40 minutes ago, C.

Virion has been replaced by Fjorm in new character trailers since the trailer for the Legendary Heroes banner, if I'm not mistaken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went ahead and checked, and at least for the English trailers, the Legendary Hero trailer and the Children of Fate trailer did not end with preview of a new chapter/paralogue, so this is the first time we've seen Fjorm taking Virion's place.

Something bothers me about doubling up on the infantry lance blonde girl for the canon team. Why couldn't they have given her a different weapon so she just wasn't better Sharena?

It was already bad enough that Sharena required a bit of effort to build, then they just introduce this chick that's better for free? IS is cold as ice.

Ah. I figured out what I was thinking about now. At the end of the last Feh Channel, they had a single cut of gameplay with Alfonse, Sharena, Anna, and Fjorm as the party. True, they were showing off Fjorm at the time, but it was a convenient time to get Virion out of the picture once and for all. 3 minutes ago, Rezzy said: Forgive me if this has been answer, but how the heck is Tharja an Armored unit? Pick your explanation: There's sheet metal sewn in her cape. RPG bikini armor too stronk. It's cold and she's not wearing much and she probably can't move very fast because it's cold.

A lot of the armours added recently have been questionably armoured at best, (looks at every seasonal armoured units) but how a bikini can be considered armour is one of video games great mysteries.

That doesn't seem like it would fit with any patterns of how they've been distributing refinement bonus effects so far. If they wanted them to have different effects, I think they would have given the base weapons different effects.

They could slow the power creep by just adding the older useful skills to the 4* pool, rather than feeling they need to come up with better and better skills with every Banner.

Most armored units are kinda slow, and their speed would only be hardly sub par after a +7 buff in speed.... but I'd imagine ALL the units on this banner would have at least decent speed Even so, having that broken power on a mage is very satisfying. The brazen skills work really good player controlled, while on an enemy they might get one shot anyway Embrace the future! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's to say these skills aren't going to get powercrept out? It's just an endless cycle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
