Fire Emblem Heroes

I've had far too many FE talks in Tohjo from my modding days of every and any Fire Emblem game. And I know @Joeypals!! at least is versed in the subject a little bit lol. Also Canas gets MAJOR bonus points for being an additional unit that can hurt the Dragon without an S rank weapon. Just fyi.

Anyway, pulled a Roy and Frederick is a nice axe user until I finally someday get Hector onto my roster. Plus I've gotten lucky with Jakob and Hanzo, amazing thieves for different reasons. Clarine is also pulling weight as a great healer since she can buff speed universally when healing, and multiple turns in a row if attacked as well.

 

Agh he's seen my collab! (I hope you liked it?? Also, he's the only Shaman in that game, which is the equivalent of today's Dark Mage, and people rank him as the best of that class out of all Dark Mages. And I'm sorry but Henry is a LOT better, but I digress)

Fire Emblem Heroes, oh shit, OK. Lemme give you a rundown: I've beaten the entire story mode on Normal already and the first three chapters on Hard (stupid Stamina). My first draws really ended up making the game for me: Raigh (from Binding Blade), Matthew (from Blazing Blade), Olivia (from Awakening), and fucking Corrin (from Fates). Corrin is by far one of the most overtly broken units in this game alongside the likes of Lyn and Takumi (fucking Takumi...), and is currently my highest unit at Lv. 29. While my balance does put me at 3 Red 1 Colorless, and while Lances do give me trouble from time to time, with Olivia's dancing, Matthew's debuffing, and Corrin's fucking OPness, they're ultimately taken down rather swiftly.

Long story short I love this game.

 

So, since the arena closed and we got those feathers, I decided to "promote" the 2 star characters specific to this game, and for only 200 each it was well worth it.

I don't know if the higher star characters have better growths or I got shafted before, but Alfonse already has the same speed at level 9 that he did at 21. Anna is much more usable thanks to actually gaining Defense and Resistance this time around, and Sharena is still a female Ephraim so far.

 

They keep both the skills and SP, @Professor Oak. In that vein the advantage of waiting to increase stars is to rack up more SP since you get more through leveling up past 20.

 

I'm on the Lunatic missions right now and almost cleared out hard mode of the story :) On Chapter 9-4 right now, still rockin Corrin (who's almost Lv. 40 at 4 stars, it's gonna be a WHILE before his ass can be 5 star), Olivia, Matthew (who's now three stars) and Raigh (now three stars).

 

When is this game getting released in India? ;-;)/

 

As someone who hit the upper rungs of the League, yes I do!

Like you pointed out, Takumi and Hector are stupidly broken, as is Lyn because she has just the right mixture of offense and defense. Tiki and Ryoma are pretty damn good too, and Robin can be a REAL pain in the ass.

Forget Wyrs and the default characters. They're literally the WYRST in the game.

 

If you mean Wrys, he's actually quite the capable healer. It's not his fault Clarice is objectively better in literally every way, unless you consider going into trees an invaluable tactical maneuver (it's not).

Anyway the standard characters are nice fill ins for units you don't have yet, and it's an okay investment to bring them to 3 stars at least. If you're going to spend the feathers on 4 star versions you might as well commit to the 5 stars because their final weapons are why you'd use them.

Anna has been a good fill in when Frederick would have been a bad choice because of his speed and resist stats, at least.

I'm currently waiting on my Stamina to refill so I can finish a hard mode mission and pull another 5 units. Hoping for a 5 star since my Roy is getting so fucked by speed it's not even funny. 22 at level 32. He gets doubled by everyone. Makes me want to drop back to tier 1 for a bit.

Edit: Pulled a Robin!
As a 3 star
fuck my luck, seriously.

 

I'm considering him against all the other healers he currently competes against: Azama, Sakura, Lissa, Elise, Serra, Maria, and the aforementioned Clarice. Wyrs objectively gets beaten by all of them. Hell he was replaced by a goddamn staff at one point.

 

Well arena for a F2P player is absolute hell now that people have had time to pull more units. I can't win intermediate battles anymore, I don't have the 5 stars or the stats on other characters to make up for only having a really slow Roy.

 

I started this the day it came out, I finished all of normal quests and I am at chapter 7 hard mode and chapter 2 lunatic mode.

Honestly I haven't played much of fire emblem except for the newer ones like awakening and conquest so idk much characters as much as u guys do. I was somewhat confused when I started FE heroes because I thought it'd be like 20-25 chapters long like in the games but it wasnt.

When I first started out my team was really shit lol but once I started getting orbs I've been getting good characters, my first good one is my 4 star Chrom and I really liked him since he's one of my favorite characters in the game but I really wanted Marth or Lucina over him, the next person I got was Roy but only a 4 star but I can't always make it a 5 star, the next one I got was a 5 star focus tiki. I was so hyped up when I got her cause she's one character I always wanted and right after I got her I reseted the summon cause I needed a blue orb next and I got 5 star focus Robin.

I changed my team a lot and I'm still changing it but this is my squad atm
I am using Sakura (for pvp mainly)/Niles (for story mode so I can hit long range with robin), robin, chrom, and I change from Roy and to tiki.

The next person I'm trying to get is Camilla then I could use my teams differently.

Edit:
Add me

 

accepted :]

 

I'd think characters like Kagero and Camilla would have gimped speed stats carrying around those assets.

I did get a 4 star Kagero from my Robin pool, so I'll start giving her more attention. Was wondering if poison dagger would be worth it but I guess the damage buff from being super effective outweighs only adding 2 Attack.

Also, might as well post my friend code:

7507185619

EDIT: After grinding during the slow hours of work I have found that yes, the damage boost with poison dagger offsets the low power lmao

 

I've had some pretty good luck with my summonings except my most recent one where I got all 3 stars and 1 shit 4 star. My current team Is 5 Takumi,4 Corrin,4 Marth,and 5 Tharja. My friend code is 0245241714

 

Got a 5 star hinoka

 

Too bad Hinoka is one of the worst princesses in Fates (I personally love her, talking statistically) ('-')_/ Nah but good job, I've yet to pull a 5-star

 

5 star Roy is still performing under par compared to other 5 star sword wielders. Still my strongest unit but it's really hurting my arena performance.

EDIT: He isn't Abel but I've got a 4 star Donnel and with Brave Lance he's able to alpha strike most of the 5 star sword lords alongside Kagero. He's a pretty useful unit to have around if you need a lancer.

 

I'm just mad that Roy's critical animation with binding blade isn't a special skill of his in the game. If they just balanced his awfully average stats (and very low speed for a sword lord) with either amazing skills or having the binding blade do much more for his stats like his home game does it would be so much better.

Roy is just a bunch of wasted potential at what could have been an interesting lord. Kind of like how he is pre-binding blade in his game.

 

I'm excited for the new summon and I wonder what other new things will be added into this game

 

I got bad summons this time and I really want julia

 

Good thing I've been training up Raigh since the beginning (words I never thought I'd type). Should be fun, doing the maps now... and by doing I mean letting auto-battle handle Normal for me while I skim the semi-existent story.

--- Post updated ---
Summons time! Let's see what we get.

2 Green, 1 Red, 1 Blue, 1 Colorless, hmm...

Colorless gave me Serra (four stars). I think I already have a 4-Star Serra so that's OK I suppose.
First Green gave me... Cherche (three stars). I think I have a Cherche too so *shrugs*
Blue gave me... Est (three stars). Not impressed, trash. NEXT
Red gave me... Laslow (three stars). My first Laslow so I'll take it but honey, mama kicks your ass.
And finally, the second green gave me... Frederick (four stars). Not bad, not bad.

Could be better obviously but hey, I'll take what I can get.

 

Theres no female robin playable character yet so that's a load of bull.

Female Corrin is a deer dragon magical bruiser with massive debuffing power so that's not surprising in the least lol.

They did make child Tiki better than the adult version, probably for the same reason Nowi exists whilst being 1000 years old.

And yes, Roy is a walking shitshow of disappointment. He's all I have until I pull another good 5* though, so I've at least learned to build a good 4* supporting core around him.

 

Abel is an extremely good unit because he's a Brave weapon user on a horse. That kind of mobility coupled with killing power is extremely nice.

The all knight team is a fun concept. The only problem would probably be that a Nino might still blow you up, but other than that getting in range is the only problem. You could always use Roy to shove them!!!!

I mean Roy isn't bad, he's just not good. Though for a 5 star focus unit, being mediocre is probably the worst thing you could be.

Honestly if I get Eliwood I've wanted to do a cavalry team since Gunter has a goad cavalry ability as well, Frederick is already close to max level 4* and I'm building up a mounted magic user in Cecilia. Mainly because their mobility will let me kite units very well and Clarice would be an all star healer with defensive buffs and Fear.

 

Halfway through Chapter 7 on Lunatic, maxed out my 4 star Corrin so I'ma need those feathers to come in baaad

In the meantime, got 5 more rolls, let's see what we got!

3 colorless, 1 red, 1 blue... first time without a color so interesting.

First colorless... 4 star Felicia! Considering my other two Felicia so far are 1-star and 2-star, I'll happily take it and sacrifice the other two for feathers.
The red gives me... 3-star Lon'qu... yay...?
Second colorless... 4-star Gaius! I don't like Gaius to begin with (see: Top 10 Overrated Fire Emblem Units w/BLAZINGKNIGHT) and I already have a ninja, so he'll just be nice eye CANDY.
The blue gives me... 3-star Robin, but he had a unique animation when I summoned him... odd. He'll be on the backburner.
And the last colorless... another 4-star Felicia... OKAY! (she'll get the Feather treatment too)

 

Yeah all the focus units get that animation even if you don't get the 5 star version. It's just all of them besides Robin were guaranteed 5 stars iirc. Happened with my Robin and I was pretty pissed.

 

So he's still Focus, cool

 

Robin's main shtick seems to be countering colorless units not named Kagero. He is one of the few mages that match up well against Takumi, and his high defense is pretty decent for killing archers in general. Against anything else he does fall a bit flat in my use of him though.

EDIT: Okay, now that I've leveled her up a bit more I can confirm Nino is incredible. Her tome converts any boosts she has into raw Attack, however she also gets to keep the boosts you stack on her. This compounds with attack boosts as well, which means you can stack every kind of boost possible onto her and watch her nuke enemies whIle probably doubling them if you raised her speed. I think they made her green for a good reason, because being blue would mean she could completely dominate the sword lords. Hell even doing neutral damage as a red unit would give her an edge in the arena.

And she's currently only a 3 star!

 

pls don't infract me for double posting oak, I swear it will only probably happen again!

Got a Julia off of the huge amount of free orbs they're giving away from the new quests and new special maps. She's a dragon slayer; Naga is effective against all of them and she gets the Resistance+ skill line. Also starts off with 23 Attack for me so that's cool. Even though she'll do her best, Nino has someone to fight for a spot now though :/

AND I GOT FUCKING EPHRAIM! He doesn't look like anything too special, besides being a 5 star he mainly buffs and debuffs on the physical side. Still, I needed a 5 star blue unit, so this was nice. 2 focus units and some 4 stars to send home for feathers.

And I got a laugh after it asked me to rate the app with this pull.
