all my units died, except for takumi, who then solo'd the rest of the map I really hate that one arena map with the two columns of breakable walls with trees in the middle, never able to figure out how to position my units in such a way that I don't lose at least one in a skirmish

If Takumi could solo the map, why didn't you hide your units behind him?

Holy poo poo. I've been levelling Ursula's Mounted Deathsquad to tackle the Training Tower quest and holy poo poo does she tear poo poo up with Blarblade and Hone Cavalry from Gunter. Like holy poo poo. She's a bonus character for the Arena this cycle, yeah? So help me I'm considering replacing Abel of all people with her for the cycle. She should play nicely with my Nino, Eirika, and Olivia.

Anyone figured out what the tiers mean? Is it just another layer of match-making?

So I am sitting on 20K feathers, so I think I'll ask you all who are better at this than me for advice on whom to 5* and party composition. Previously (thanks to suggestions from here), I've been using Hinoka-Caeda-MRobin core, which works OK, though Caeda is a bit underpowered. Since then, though, I've gotten Hector --- but I am not sure I can use him well due to poor mobility (Wings of Mercy, maybe?), and now an option to 5* someone else. Obvious suspects would include MRobin, FCorin, Kagero, Sharena or Anna, but maybe I am failing to see someone's potential.

Ive been placed against tier 2 as my advanced opponent and t6 as my easy one.(while i was using a lvl 28 ursula) Normally i get a mix of the top 2 tiers. Since ive gotten max feathers every week ive never seen someone a higher tier than me. Though i never place higher than the 10k-whatever bracket.

I think I'm bowing at, at least for awhile. Skill inheritance doesn't seem like it Ruins The Game, but the specifics of the implementation give me pretty strong decision paralysis, and it looks like I'm going to have trouble maxing feathers every week while ignoring it. Which isn't really a complaint, but I could probably spend the time another way.

You have S tier red, S+green and either A or A+ blue. The way i see it is you can move Kagero up for a really good 4 squad. But you can also upgrade mRobin for a fantastic 3 squad and rotate for whatever bonus hero you want. Edit: there's plenty of mobility skills to throw around via inheritance to help Hector move around. Nasgate fucked around with this message at 20:55 on Mar 21, 2017 |

Clarste posted:Linde was good pre-skill inheritance because she basically had the perfect stats for a mage, plus a passive +3 speed. No one really cared about any of her other skills. Now that Nino can get Fury or Darting Blow, Linde lacks the decisive speed advantage she used to have, so she's been reduced to just one of several top tier mages. With Blarblade though, she's a blue Nino, which is arguably a better color for that role. I think green is better than blue for mages bc what high Res reds are there running around anyway? A buffed Fury Nino can gib Y Tiki and that's about as bulky as reds get. Other than that green matches up better into everything except Tharja and Ryoma. But that's just my opinion

E: ^^^^^ it's funny how the little girls in this game destroy everyone. Nino and Nowi can get pretty scary Who wants Vantage more, Lyn or Ryoma? I only have one Lonqu to give atm. I also tossed Darting Blow on the Lobster, fwiw. Lyn is unaltered though. eggrolled fucked around with this message at 21:41 on Mar 21, 2017 |

Lovechop posted:i just got 5*s of karel and ryoma trying to pull a tharja - are either of these guys worth doing anything with if i already have a swagged out lucina? their weapons seem cool but i don't know if it's worth the effort. Different styles of play. Lucina is better buffer, straight up fighter, and can heal herself. Ryoma is a better tank and ranged killer. If you have the other two, I would dump Karel for skills

Other than that green matches up better into everything except Tharja and Ryoma. But that's just my opinion Thing is, aside from easy and guilt free access to Blarblade and Moonbow through Odin, Linde also has easy access to Desperation and Fury (Jagen and Shanna), plus starts with a slightly higher base ATK than Nino to begin with. Nino has no access to Desperation or Moonbow as far as I can tell, and even if she did no way to reliably activate the former (Linde has Ardent Sacrifice). Both have access to Luna, if you happened to want that instead of Moonbow, though Nino's choice is easier to sacrifice than Linde's (Frederick vs. Catria).

That's not how skill inheritance works. If you can learn the skill, you can learn it from anyone. Shanna gave my Nino Desperation 3. It's usually quite easy to activate even without Fury or another specific skill. Nino can survive a baited attack from Takumi, destroy him on the counterattack, and then take advantage of desperation to kill anything nasty that's left over (say Hector)

Hector is the unequivocal selection, Abel/MRobin, then Kagero if you pick Abel or Caeda if you pick MRobin + 4th Arena bonus hero. You could also run a flyer comp for shits n giggles Remember to throw pivot/wings of mercy on hector, triangle Adept and Blue tomebreaker on Robin if you end up using him, or death blow on Kagero.

Anyone whose gimmick is being a narrow counter to mages better be able to bait and then revenge kill all of Nino, Linde, Julia, and Tharja. I don't think any such character even exists, so I don't think I'd ever put a narrowly-focused mage killer on my team.

Are there any good A skills for Sharena besides Fury 3 (I only have a 3 star Hinata left and don't want to spend 2k feather on him, but if it's the best option...) or is just leaving it as Spd 3 fine?

Without a speed boost, Sharena gets doubled by Lucina. Unless you plan on giving her swordbreaker, she pretty much has to have one of +spd, fury, or life and death to fulfill her primary (or secondary if you're a blade team I guess) role.

sassassin posted:Why not just use Olivia? Not strong enough at 4* and level 40. She's plan B if charging up Blazing Thunder doesn't work out, but I'll need to raise her to 5-star or inherit something anti-Hector onto her in order to make her a reliable option, and I don't have the feathers to spare yet Speaking of inheriting onto Olivia, does Fury trigger HP loss after dancing, or does it not apply to assists?

Fury activates after combat so Dance does not trigger it. If it did, there'd be some interesting things that might be possible.

MRobin Caeda Hinoka Hector looks a decent comp to me. The Caeda/Hinoka synergy is too good to ignore since you have them both at 5, and MRobin/Hector are both really decent solutions to the archers who'd threaten them. Kagero is also tempting, but that would leave you with nobody who hits res, which I think is inadvisable. Getting Reposition on your fliers, Draw Back on Robin and Pivot on Hector will really help with his maneuverability, and give you lots of nice options for hit and runs. It does look like you're a bit short on units to donate those skills at the moment though. hit button fucked around with this message at 01:44 on Mar 22, 2017 |
