Azz Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) Credit to @bk2128 and @therprinceofiris on Twitter. Spoiler New Characters: -Owian -Tharja -Olivia Character Skills (Translated by @VincentASM) -Olivia has Galeforce, which raises Awakening and Warrior gauge each time a strong enemy is defeated. -Tharja has Destruction Pact, which increases attack power with low HP, but causes HP to slowly decrease with time. -Owain has Balancing Resonance (very loose translation), which increases attack power the smaller the difference between the STR and MAG stats. New Costumes: -Exalt Chrom -Sage Lissa (Emmeryn) -Dark Flier Cordelia Other Updates: -Level cap raised to 150 -New blessing called Infinial Blessing, which raises all enemy levels to 150 -A new weapon skill that raises normal weapon power to the same as personal weapon (480) -You can reset character level to 1 in exchange for materials -Another new blessing called Strategist Blessing which means your controlled characetrs can't deal damage but NPCs will fight a lot better as a result. Apparently the pack releases on the 22nd in Japan. If this is the case, then that means it shall come out at 9.00 a.m JST, so that means it should be out midnight GMT, 8 p.m EST ( think) and 5 p.m PST (Again I think). That's today. Yes I know we have the update topic but that has gotten fairly bloated, and I think this deserves its own topic. If a mod feels it doesn't feel free to lock it.

Shadow Mir Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Looks like the Sage's Hamlet is a map. And where was the Exalt costume taken from?? I don't remember seeing Chrom look like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmurr Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Yesssss I've been so excited for this one. Glad to see Olivia and Tharja's renders look good, after Linde's looked so odd. ...I'm not sure what's going on with Owain's pose in this though, lol.

r_n Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Man what on earth is going on with Olivia's sword. There's just...a lot...going on there. Some of the new stuff added is kind of odd, isn't it? -A new weapon skill that raises normal weapon power to the same as personal weapon (720) This for example. Why...? We have hero weapons. or this blessing Another new blessing called Strategist Blessing which means your controlled characetrs can't deal damage but NPCs will fight a lot better as a result. Which I have to hope is a mistranslation because there is no situation where this is a good thing? I AM pretty intrigued by the character reset ability. I wouldn't necessarily do it now, but if it gives a lot of materials i will gladly throw Xander into the chipper, relevel him, and do it again and again. Also bummed we got Dark Flier Cordelia instead of Dark Mage Owain. And surprisingly Owain is the first character whose model did not match their official artwork. strange, since i'm pretty sure he mimics it perfectly in his intro scene.

Anacybele Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) No costume for Frederick. Just as I figured. Not even a broken armor model which is rather surprising, so he's the only one of the Awakening cast getting literally nothing here. Disappointing and rather unfair imo. There seems to be nothing interesting/good in this pack, so I'm passing on it. Edited March 21, 2018 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owain actually isn't the first, both Takumi's and Sakura's renders are different from the OA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r_n Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Wait this launches tonight what? What????? I had assumed it would be next week since Hyrule Warriors came out today and they usually ran the famitsu a week ahead of time. ????????????????????????????????????????????

According to BlackKite on twitter who I got most of the translations from, yes, the DLC is out tonight. Side note, Owain's render is based on one of his Cipher cards: Spoiler Edited March 21, 2018 by Azz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh huh, you're right. Surprsiing for Takumi (he event has 2 pieces to go off of), but Sakura I guess makes sense. Elise's artwork (featuring a staff) works pretty well when you swap the staff for the book, but it'd be a little awawkrd to swap the staff for a bow.

Frederick will get his broken armor model and his own prf weapon just like everyone else. There's plenty of interesting/good in this pack, imo.

nocturnal YL Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Now that I think about it, how is tactician mode going to work in missions where you can use only one character? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can afk. but even with more competent AI this seems ill advised since you can't deal damage but you can pretty certainyl take damage.

It'll probably work. Horribly.

I still know nothing of his prf weapon, and I'm not spending money just for a weapon. I disagree. The character choices are not good imo. I would've rather seen Inigo or Lon'qu or Stahl or Panne or Maribelle. Costume choices are meh. And Frederick didn't get anything. Can't believe how hard he got shafted here. I mean, I knew he kinda would get the short end of the stick, but not this badly. I thought I might at least see his broken armor model here. If others like this, go ahead, have fun. But I don't like it and choose to ignore it. But imo, I think every character should've gotten at least one new costume.

Get the blessing, enter battle as the sole unit, fail to attack, get a game over, try again, wonder why nothing works and slowly go insane. 12 minutes ago, Anacybele said: Then why show off all the other models?

EDIT: Oh, Robin's isn't here either, so I guess he/she also won't have one. They didn't show Robin either. (EDIT: okay, you noticed that as well.) But yeah, armor break models apply to all characters in that game. DLC1 gave all Fates characters armor break models, and DLC2 did the same to all Shadow Dragon and miscellaneous characters.

I don't know if you have been following the DLC, but every character has gotten a broken armour model. They always only show of three in the Famitsu scans, so both Robins and Frederick will get a broken armour model. Also, not every character in each pack got a new costume. All the Fates royals (But Corrin, Azura, Takumi and Camilla), the Fates DLC characetrs, Anna, Celica, the SD DLC characters and now the Robins and Fredericks along with the Awakening DLC characters have not gotten costumes.
