who needs micaiah anyway



tbf he doesnt actually ORKO supermerged WTharjas on defense tiles but this is more than a good enough check. I can provide spurs and buffs to make him get there too

I went in for a third time for Micaiah and got basically no blue orbs and pity broke by another Takumi. Super tempted to give Close Counter to Oliver but I'll see what's on the horizon first

So has everyone figured out their 7 votes yet?

I've got a few ideas
1) Tibarn
2) Lethe
3) Merlinus
4) Pelleas

As for 5-7... What do you guys think?
Dart, Gatrie, Ross, Percy, L'Arachel, Vaike, Gregor, Cormag or Ewan?

I'm trying to vote for new unit types and get new characters instead of another Ike (Who is still great).

I feel like they've learned enough about how OP they made Reinhardt that a Brave Rein would probably end up being worse than standard Rein.

I'm in the middle of building up a +def/-hp Fae. Can anyone help explain which special (non-aether) I want to give her? I read a lot about the differences between glimmer and moonbow and still don't know if one is better or if I should be running ignis, bonfire or glacies even with the extra cooldown or are they not worth it if I don't have a spare steady breath?

I’d probably look up a table of all of the heroes’ stats and see where Fae stands in comparison to others. If she has one of the highest DEF totals in the game, then put Bonfire on her. If it’s RES instead, then it’s Glacies. I put Glacies on Eliwood because his RES is quite good for example. Obviously this is just a guide to figure out which special to put on characters and not a specific recommendation for Fae.

Aether is an expensive special so it boosts your team BST in general, which also means a higher arena score so if Fae is in your core, you prob want it on her for that reason along with making her harder to kill while boosting scores. Thread, feel free to correct me though.

Try her out in combat first, then see. If she has trouble scoring a kill during the initial engagement (where she's defending with QR), then Moonbow is probably your best bet. If she kills the opponent fine, then give her either Bonfire or Iceberg (depending on whether def or res is higher after you tally up your A skills, seals, weapon refinements and buffs) so she can make offensive kills after defending for a round.

Cormag, L'Arachel and maybe Dart are the ones I could see bringing different as unit types, even though I can see new stuff brought by the others...



That said, my ballot is looking good with:

1. Hector
2. L'Arachel
3. Tibarn
4. Niime
5. Maribelle
6. Canas

But then I'm a bit stumped with my 7th choice. I'm leaning towards another guy from the Jugdral or Tellius Games.

7. Thracia 776 Finn to switch it up

Don't even care which Finn they end up using in this game (though Thracia 776 Finn on a banner with Leaf and someone else seems pretty likely), I just want Finn so I can put him on a horse team with Sigurd and Titania.

Is moonbow the better choice over glimmer? I was thinking with the way that the ++lightning breath worked glimmer may work better since it targets the lesser of the defense stats, but I didn't know if the math for moonbow just worked out better regardless.

1 vote for Nasir.
1 vote for Ranulf. (Please give Ike ALL his boyfriends)

In all honesty, aside from her funny name and being one of the few manaketes we haven't gotten, I actually really don't like Nah. Terrible supports with maybe only one or two decent ones.

Also someone has to marry Nowi to get her to exist.

Nah and Cynthia put Nah as one of my favorites. It’s just hard to compare to Severa, Owain, Inigo, Noire, Cynthia and I guess Lucina.

Laurent's not fun either but he has better synergy with the characters he's interacting with, like Gerome and Yarne. Even his romance supports kinda work.

Nah is basically just the contrast to characters like Cynthia where she just gets exasperated with their high energy. Also even her romance supports just have her acting weird, like being convinced Laurent is a stalker and threatening to eat Inigo.
