Very first Voting Gauntlet match: my Priscilla, Anna and Felicia vs TA Robin, Klein and Eldigan.

... This is going to be a bit painful.

Edit: decided to make Hector my lead unit so others can go tell TA Robin to gently caress off, I have a feeling he's going to be extremely popular during this gauntlet

Wait, isn't the voting gauntlet supposed to pull one ally from your friends list and one from a random on the same team?

'cuz something happened to me just now that definitely wasn't that. :smith:

I've got 20k feathers, is it worth it to blow it all to +1 a nino or reinherdt? Also what the hell do you put on a ninian for her special skill since she's not that great offensively.

For Ninian, Moonbow/Luna is fine. Maybe Iceberg, if she isn't -res. Or save yourself the effort of an SP grind and don't bother. :v:

Unless you really need the +1 to get better arena scores I would just save my feathers. There will inevitably something you want the feathers for.

It'll help nudge your arena score higher, at the very least. That's why all the tip-top people at tier 20 pretty much have Aether on everything since it takes so much SP to learn.

Done, username's the same as here. Pick a buddy, I'll shuffle my defense team around.



I've also got a lv. 37 Legion who might be fun with the clerics, it's certainly hilarious training him up :v:

Bless you, friend! Do Reinhardt, if you would. I have him as my lead unit.

Btw I think the unit you give your friends is unit in the first slot in your leftmost team. But check for me! My lead unit should be Reinhardt. If it's Camus, I'll need to shuffle my defense team around.

EDIT: Yesssss it worked! Reinhardt worked like a charm. You've just made my life a lot easier, bud, thanks a ton!

You're right, your loaner unit is Reinhardt; I just haven't changed my def team because :effort:. Is there still a cap on the number of friends you can have, btw?

There's a cap, but I'm not sure what it is. Didn't bother counting. You have to have over a certain number of friends on your list for the daily piddly greeting feathers (like 20, I think?).

Lemme know how my Reinhardt works out for ya. He should be able to handle anything you throw him at, short of green mages.

I'll be your friend and lead with her if you lead with another horse unit. As long as you have no other Elise friends my Elise will always be in the lead.

I've noticed that the score multiplier when your army is behind is dynamic. I think it used to just be a flat 3x. Right now Team Clarine has a 3.9x multiplier. Maybe it's dependent on how far behind your army is?

two new colorless units, and both are something that I want. i can finally pull colorless, and even if I don't get either of the focus units I'll probably have a few more Virions and get closer to the +10 :allears:

Yeah, it increases based on how long the army had been behind and goes up as high as 7.5x(!)

Eesh. Clarine vs. Priscilla sure is swinging wildly. I've had 3 score multiplier rounds and this last one was a 4.1x. Pretty crazy!

I'm doing well in the rankings but I've just about used up my flags. I'm holding at rank ~600ish.

Seems like it could go either way but I hope Clarine wins... she's the only cleric I have in this thing even closed to properly trained up.

Arena was completely painless this week. Got my full run (probably not enough for tier 20, but enough that I don't feel like a bad) in the process of setting up my quests to finish tomorrow

Saw multiple flier teams but no horse teams, and weirdly few dancers. Both broken wall maps are annoying but neither is nearly as bad as last week's lava or boats.

Since I have no chance at Tier 20, I'm just going to play enough arena to finish the quests. It's nice to have a breather since we have both the gauntlet and a new incoming GHB.
