Two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight and barbecue your own drumsticks!

Flier Team is doing beautifully in the Tempest. Elincia almost has enough SP to learn Fortify Fliers. I'm even levelling up Priscilla! (I took away her weapon. Healers cannot be trusted with them.)

I don't have enough feathers to promote the 4* BK so I'll have to wait to get the 5*. He'll go on the list of +1 promotions though! I look forward to getting him kitted out. I already have a 3* Subaki and Draug ready to promote and feed to him. I'll keep the rest of his base kit for now.

This TT has been painful for me, since the only bonus unit I have is an unbuilt 4* Soren.

And I can fully attest that unbuilt 4* Sorens are, in fact, very bad.

I'm probably better off foregoing the bonus unit and run a real team instead. I think being able to handle the 7-map still outweighs a measly 20% bonus on the 5-maps.

You can go in with the 4* Soren alone, immediately surrender to your real team, and still get the bonus.

I spent so many orbs during the brave banner and finally got my +atk Priscilla wrathful staff: the first thing she did in these TTs was almost suicide herself on an Olwen.

No weapons for Priscilla after that.

The tried and true Nino+Rein+Dancer+Tempest Unit (Ike in my case) can clear everything. Rein can solo the last stage if you have a lucky enough spawn. Glass cannon builds with reposition/draw back/dance can tear through the trials.

If the weekend SP bonus actually went for the whole weekend I'd bum rush 30k points today and take a break from TT to level BK tomorrow :saddowns:

Edit: Probably gonna hit like 15k today just the same though. I want to make as much use of the daily 3x bonus as I can since I'm down to only 19 stamina pots

I know it's also Friday, but TT started today. I finished off my Titanic yesterday, ended up giving her attack +3 for her a slot since I didn't want fury to mess up her reciprocal aid.

Edit: lol Titania

Is leveling BK in the Warriors maps better than leveling him in the low level Tempests? There is literally a level 8 tempest after all

Is a +spd Titania worth a promote to 5*? I'm very short on good green units, guess I could promote a Soren but my 4* boy has been pretty bad thus far.

I rolled a crap ton of orbs for Summer Elise and Sonya but the gacha was not kind :(

Depends on what you need her to do. If you just need someone who can tank/kill blues, she does the job really well with her emerald axe.

As a bonus Titania is also really cool.

Heck yeah her art is awesome. Maybe a Reinhardt killer if I could ever get distant counter to give to her, so + res would probably be better. She sucks against bow Lyn though. Another green cav for my horse team would be nice to give Cecilias back a rest from all the carrying she does.

A neutral Titania will take 21 damage from a +10 +ATK 5* Rein with a hone, DB3 and QP + Moonbow.

She really doesn't need +RES.

Whoever suggested my lovely Titania over Soren made the right call. She's easily pulling her weight even against nonblues with her respectable (buffed) speed and defenses. A+ axe mom would promote.

My god, I finally got caught up on this thread after not reading it for a while because the 1.5 (or was it 1.6?) update made it so my emulator no longer ran this game. I for some reason decided to read this thread recently to see what I missed and boy did I miss a lot. I missed a free 5* Brave Hero, which makes me sad, the new arena assault and bound hero battles, and this makes me sad.

Oh well, I wish you guys luck with your future endeavours in this game (Good Job Hana Goon on getting your 5* +10 Hana, I believed in you), and even if I find a way to get my emulator play this game again, I probably won't join in, because not playing this game has been healthy for my wallet. Keep having fun, and don't spend too much money. Fare thee well.

I can have moments of... eccentricity and sometimes be quite curious about things. Please forgive me if I do something foolish or rude.

I have an old Iphone that though I tired to play FEH on it, it didn't really work, but the phone works fine for everything else I use it for, and I see no real point in upgrading it. That, and I used an android emulator, which would mean I wouldn't to be able to get my progress back anyway, and starting from scratch is highly unappealing.

The Black Knight has a Distant Counter weapon. Using him as fodder sounds like an incredibly poor choice.

Have you ever played Dynasty Warriors? The Black Knight is basically Lu Bu. He shows up fairly frequently throughout PoR and is nigh invincible so he's this constant imposing force that you can't do anything about until Ike picks up Ragnell.

Retcon

There's not really much to get about the Black Knight, he's not a very complex character. Mostly he's just a cool dude wearing huge armor that is really, really powerful and every time he appears on the battlefield it's a big "oh poo poo, it's the Black Knight "moment. There is more to him, but most of that is revealed in Radiant Dawn and you can't get into that without spoiling a bunch of stuff about both Tellius games.

He's a mysterious, inscrutable figure who shows up out of nowhere and murders Ike's father, which sets up his motivation for the next significant chunk of the game. You learn that he has a reputation for being literally invincible (because his armor is blessed by the goddess), and no one knows his true identity. Ike has a solo battle (his sister can help) with him that caps off the first act of the game.

He also has really incredibly badass battle music.

You get a 4* and a 5* version of him. I don't really why you wouldn't use the 4* as a fodder if you aren't interested in using 20k for a +1 upgrade.
