So now that its out there a bit, how much does real money help? Is there a TON of RNG in the character stats that we're going to curse about? Why won't the iTunes store updateeeeeeeee?!

I got my first empty level up a while back, so yeah, there's going to be some RNG.

Is this like FFBE where 3 stars can eventually evolve into 4 then 5 stars, and the only difference is that 5 stars just give you a head start?

Yeah, I guess what I'm asking is if there are any traps that you shouldn't invest resources in.

It's a phone game, just play it on mute like I imagine a lot of people would by default if the occasional voice clip bothers you that much.

From the looks of it, yeah, everything can eventually evolve into 5*.

Buuuuuut, there are 5* bases that only drop at that rank like in FFBE.
Still waiting on Canadian launch, but I'll probably reroll for a 5*

How complicated is rerolling -- do you need to make a new account every time or do you just delete account and recreate? Remembering login info for a fake account is a tall order.

Quick method of rerolling I'm using.

1. Download Nox
2. Download apk file
3. Install Nox and add apk file to Nox (turn on root mode in settings)
4. Do tutorial, get 2 bonus owl orbs, do next 3 missions
5. Summon
6. If not satisfied exit out and go to File Explorer and then go to data->data->com.nintendo.zaba->shared_prefs and then delete the deviceAccount.xml file. (hole the file to delete it)

That way you don't have to redownload the patch either.

Everything changes, Pit.
Even gods.

just started chapter 7 of the story. threw $40 at the game because that's how much Google Money Stuff I got for my birthday a few weeks ago and what else am I gonna use it on? so between the cash and the free orbs and the story orbs so far, this is where I'm at:



pretty satisfied with things overall, probably going to save stones up for the first special event now unless I get The Urge To Splurge

also very convinced Ryoma with Raijinto is OP as hell. just throw him into danger with a defense buff and let all the enemies suicide onto him, heal him up, and do it again. the only problem is he ends up being an XP hog.

nobody else i've gotten so far has felt broken like that. Lyn is really strong, as is Corrin, but Ryoma just feels super busted. lots of fun

Pulled 5* Lyn, 4* Matthew, 4* Virion. Not sure if I should save this and keep rerolling or just go with this. hmmm

First pull, all 3 stars. Normally I don't bother rerolling in games like this, but that I think deserves it. As I'm just playing on my phone at work, I think I have to delete the client and redownload. Didn't seem to be any way of wiping the save game in client.

So typically iOS is poo poo for re-rolling. I'm going to assume that would be the same for this game as well.

Their skillsets actually look pretty solid but it'd take a lot of work to get them to 4/5* right now. I can see them being a good choice to level second after your A team.

That's why you can link your Nintendo account, but from what I've seen you can reroll until you do that.
