For a swift one at the wrist, down on the old main drag.

Nino is one of the best units in the game

The difference between boosting Camilla and Nino is prob pretty big then yeah? Just wasn't sure if Eirikas buffing power would bring more than the increase between Nino and cam. Thank you very much by the way!

Oh speaking of 5 star guys, I'm assuming most people would mulch seliph and m corrin for feathers right? Brash assault doesn't look like a world beater and it doesn't look like those two would do anything all that much better than eldigan does already, unless I'm really missing something.

My Life and Death 2 Julia (+atk/-hp) can safely bait most Takumis with a def buff and can OHKO most Takumis with an atk buff. You might not need a dedicated Takumi counter if you have Julia (though obviously run the numbers with the one you actually have)

I forget what her IVs are but I'll have to check cause that'd be really useful, thanks for pointing that out.

Regardless of liking him or not, leveling him up for the quests was some of the least fun I've had in this game.

He's a glass cannon, except despite his good Speed, his Attack is garbage. So you get to watch him be unable to hurt most of the green axes and die to green mages that he can barely kill with a Rally Attack + Dance.

For the unforgivable sin of having a single merged unit (a 40+1 Eirika) in arena, I have been consigned to life of facing 694 rating teams with 3 vantage hectors (three!!!) or 3 40+4 units until the end of time

after burning 8 dueling crests, I decided to just take the single unit death I got and settle for a score of 4731

whoeever told me that having a merged unit would have little or no consequence, I DISAGREE

I vote that all lava maps be banned from the arena. Just had a good arena streak end because of dumb chokepoints. The opponent team being Takumi/Lucina/M!Robin/Julia didn't help either.

See, this is why my Olivia has TA3. She takes about 4 damage from Hectors and murders them continuously.

Navarre's cuter.

But idk is it really better to have less def/res if you're trying to level someone up? It's not like Navarre is swole enough to kill in one shot.

No Ike yet, but I did get a 4-star +spd/-res Nino, which I assume is roughly tied for best IVs. Guess I know what my next project is!

3 5 pulls and I got a 4* Roy for my troubles.

I'll save up more orb and then maybe try a fourth.

EDIT: I hear you, brother, I hear you. I got three fuckin' Hinatas.

Got a 5* Eirikia (+HP/-SPD) and a 4* Camilla(+DEF/-SPD). I'm dry on orbs but I'll be able to make another roll before the banner goes away.

How's Eirika anyway? I'm not even sure how to use her or what team she goes in other than as a Rallybot.

Eirika is an amazing buffer, handles greens and is good vs. swordlords if you give her swordbreaker. She fills the red slot really well.

Cute but I've already got Subaki for every red unit and a Hector for most other stuff. I've been running Spring Camilla in my third slot.

So she'd be good for handling greens but otherwise she's just... a Roy (which I already have) that can buff. A nice sidegrade.

Got up to 4,50% and felt pretty pissed, but then I got Hector and two Titanias. Yeh, I'm fine with that.

gently caress me I was not ready for this banner at all but thankfully managed to get Ike, Soren, and Titania with the meager ~100 orbs I had :stare:

I don't give two figs about art quality or stats or IVs, all I wanted was Boyfriend Emblem so I'm set for life or until they release RD variations.

THAT'S SPECTACULAR.
Did a pull and it gave me 3 colorless orbs and 2 blue orbs. gently caress you too, game.

Also, does anyone know what the hell Bruno's deal was supposed to be? I know from one of the paralogues that there was some backstory but, lord knows, I can't remember it.

Also, also. My Carrot Sword/Ardent Sacrifice/Renewal/Breath of Life-faux healer Bunny Chrom is THE BEST on these defend maps.
