Vaximillian Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) All aboard the new Tempest Trial event, subtitled Loki’s Flames, scheduled to start on May 25th and last until June 3rd! The story involves Loki and Laegjarn this time. Will Masked Marth reveal himself before Prince Marth? Time will tell. The most anticipated reward for the event is Marth: Altean Groom, marking the moment when the OG lord finally gets a Heroes alt. Both bridal and vanilla versions of Marth, Ninian, Sanaki, and Tharja will be our bonus units: These are our important rewards this time: 1,000 points: 4★ Marth; 6,000 points: Atk/Def 1 seal; 10,000 points: Spd Smoke 1 seal; 12,500 points: one Wind blessing; 15,000 points: 5★ Marth; 20,000 points: Flier Formation 1 seal. Show off your Marths marrying your Caedas, folks! Edited May 25, 2018 by Vaximillian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethany81707 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Hm... there's also the Voting Gauntlet, which I doubt is identical... but if it's a Tempest, I suppose that's some Merit to go to that old Caeda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C. Turtle Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Marth and the Brides being bonus units would make sense. But then again, Marisa and the Sacred Memories units being bonus units for her Tempest would have made sense as well. The title seems to imply a more story-driven Tempest like Shrouded by the Storm, but then, the Tempest doesn't coincide with a Legendary Banner to provide a source for the bonus units. As for the final boss, making it Loki would make sense, given the Tempest is named after her, but she is a shapeshifter, and she was technically the boss of Shrouded by the Storm, just in the form of Fjorm. It's possible that Loki will be the final boss, just not as Loki. I dunno. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowi's Husband Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I'll be using Bride Sanaki as my bonus unit, along with Groom Marth when I get him. Will give her Guidance seal so she can ferry Nowi around. Can't wait to learn what new seals we will get, that's always the most exciting part of the gauntlets for me besides the free 5*.

mampfoid Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 7 seasonal 5* exclusive bonus units? Seems unlikely to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korath88 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) I'm predicting a bonus set similar to the "shrouded by the storm" tempest, which probably will be a mix of legendary and CYL heroes with Marth. The brides already have their voting gauntlet Edited May 19, 2018 by Korath88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmy Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I would have thought the bonus units would have been from one of Marth's games, but it doesn't look like the voting gauntlet has it's own banner, so I'm thinking the brides might be the bonus units too.

Nowi's Husband Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 With the new scoring system there's barely any disadvantage to not having your own bonus unit, you almost instantly get at least the 4* freebie which counts the same 40% as the others. So I could totally see them making it all the brides now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cute Chao Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Honestly, I'm expecting the brides to be the bonus units. I don't have any nor do I plan to pull for any, so I'll just muddle through until I get Marth <3 At least it's not as detrimental as it used to be :) I really want to see his art >.< I'm hoping it's not awful, since I don't really like how two of the brides look this year and didn't like how two of them looked last year... But fingers crossed :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javi Blizz Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 The only think I want to know atm is which seals will be given in this TT tbh xd Speed Ploy seal pls, I need to finish my quad ploy Arvis with something better than Threaten Speed xd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkaid Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I'm glad that wondering who the bonus units will isn't an issue anymore. The freebie TT unit giving the full bonus was a great change. I'll probably just auto battle with Marth + some armors, which worked well enough with Finn in the last TT. I'm gonna guess we get another threaten or seal skill, plus possibly Spd Ploy and Res Tactic. Hopefully they don't skip over Spd Ploy for a worse filler skill. I'd like to have that one, since I'd rather fodder an Arvis for Def Ploy and then use Spd Ploy in the seal when possible, since we have more fodder of him than Saias.

EricaofRenais Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I am guessing all the brides will be the bonus units so it looks like I will need to build a team around bride!Cordelia which will be easy since she is one of my best archers. I want to see the seals for this one since I am sitting on 100+ coins waiting for a seal I want to max out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Branniglenn Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I'm gonna wait for the reveal of the next legendary banner before deciding what banner deserves my orbs. So that means I've got Cordelia, Charlotte, and later Marth. The TT will be mostly over before I could add another bride to that team. Interestingly, I have two spare Brave Bow+ and a spare Firesweep Bow in case I want to equip my +Atk/-HP Cordelia. My Charlotte is +Atk/-Res as well, good natures.

r_n Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) I highly doubt all seven brides will be bonus units. It will probably be the new 3+marth+4 others. Like I could see Fjorm back as a bonus unit. It's also possible they just go with an entirely different theme. Marisa was on a tempest (coincidentally, the last time we had Loki as a boss) that was made entirely of Legendary Banner units (Fjorm, L-Ike, Gunnthra, PA-Azura, B-Lucina, S-Robin, S-Xander) Edited May 19, 2018 by r_n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolu-Chan Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I hope the bonus units are the brides. With the new system basically the only thing you need for getting the 4* Marth is one or two runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charmeleonbrah Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 The Tempest Trial name is alluding to the fact that Loki used to be a very active poster on the FE7 Gamefaqs forum and would frequently take down arcane sh*tposters with hilarious flames.

Spiral the Gamer Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 While I think Groom Marth will be a bonus unit, I'm not sure about last year's brides. I'm more looking forward to the orbs 40+ orbs we'll get so I can spend those on the next Legendary Banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezzy Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 It would be nice if I could use my Bridelia as a bonus unit. If I'm lucky enough to get Bride Ninian, I can use her, since I always have a dancer on my Tempest team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexmender Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Damn, that Spd will make her hard to kill without the bonus stats. Thankfully my Cordelia will be able to destroy her easily. 1 minute ago, Sentinel07 said: Welp, no new unit outside of the Brides (and Marth) in the new update, so I'm guessing the reward for this will be a repeat. Marth is going to be the reward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she actually has a speed stat. Doubling 41 by onerounding will be a bit difficult without something like bold fighter or a heavy hitting brave lance. That is if you don't get hit first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
