Well, I'm kind of a stubborn person, so I went back to pulling on the dancer banner:

First summoning session:
  • Jagen 3* (get lost Jagen)
  • Female Corrin 3* (well, at least I can say I have all blue dragon ladies)
The rest was grey orbs, so I said "nope".

Second summoning session:
  • Jagen 3* (screw you Jagen)
  • Adult Tiki 4* (*shrugs*)
  • Lukas 4* (heh, I like this guy in Echoes, so I'm happy)
  • Oscar 4* (well, that's becoming interesting)
  • Inigo 5* (oh boy) - +ATK -DEF

I just drew Cordelia and Minerva on the same draw, and didn't have either before. I'm taking this as a sign that it's time to build a flier team for the first time. I have five star versions of the following. Which four should I develop and use? Obviously I keep Elincia, since she's the only red there, but then I have two blues and two greens. Who should sit out?

-Minerva
-Cordelia
-Elincia
-Summer Corrin
-Spring Camilla

Tier 20 isn't worth staying in really. There be too many whales there. I flip-flop between 19 and 20 each week with no serious effort using Xander 40+1, Bow Lyn 40 , Reinhardt 40 and one of the Askr units (got them all to 5 star and with decent skills inherited) and that's fine for me

Yeah, I can easily get the same score. Brave Lyn, Brave Ike, Brave Lucina + Inigo with TA3/Raven/Bowbreaker and I breeze through it. It's honestly the Lyn show with random baits by the other 3.

Accidentally hit quote instead of edit...my bad

I ran Elincia, Summer Corrin, Cordelia, and Gren Axe Mystery Dancer in arena. Doing a ton of fights for quests as well. Trucked everything other than brave ike, and all I had to do is have corrin soften him up first before Elincia kills.

Corrin: Blade tome, fury, desperation(not even needed)
Cordelia: I just have a deathblow brave lance setup, not even the ridiculous firesweep build, which I actually have that setup on Clair
Elincia: default DB3 and Amiti, luna

Reposition on all and hit and run on melees.

For your green since I'm running dancer, I'd say get camilla set up with a blade tome. Elincia and Cordelia will run over blue mages and corrin and cordelia can still kill most blue melees. Camilla with blade tome can deal with annoying high survivability blues.

By far the most annoying unit will be brave ike, seperate him out and hit him with mage then Elincia. If hes not running Beorc's Blessing then Camilla can probably 1 shot him, if he is then be prepared to have to hit mage > elincia for the kill.

Out of boredom, I gave Firesweep L+ to Oscar, and, man, he is something! Just don't take him to the special map for SP grind with the weapon it doesn't really work there.

Still pulling for another dancer and... Blue, 5*, Tana. Where were you on your own banner? I don't even know what to do with you, because my flier team is Elincia, Spring Camilla, Summer Corrin, and Hinoka.

At least there's still the rest of the month left!

Also, will have to recommend Bowbreaker 3 for Inigo for anyone running him in arena. Some fancy Lyn's won't die in one counter attack and if there's a dancer with them, rip the dream. Inigo's fast enough and Rein is fragile enough for him to either get doubled or just die in one blow, so you always have him covered.

Tana is good for a mixed infantry or armor team due to her Guidance skill. She becomes a dropship for Hector and company.

Finally pulled Inigo! +HP, -Def but I dunno if I'll have the dedication to actually build him up so it's fine.

Also got my first Leon, +Spd, -Atk so probably to the bench with him.

Managed 4900 in AA. I finally realized that items exist which makes this way easier. My favorite is probably the infantry boots. Temporarily turning infantry into horses (and horses into cars). Definitely came in handy one map where I needed to move Robin out of the way and replace him with Julia but they were 2 spaces apart and clashed with each other.

Couple things I need to remember to do

1. Make a green Raven user
2. Put sword breaker on a couple lancers

Click to expand...

On the current Arena tier meta:

New Azura is S tier because she has virtually the same stats as regular Azura, and she has a legendary 16 might axe weapon that should work well on infantry teams.

Inigo is S+, because he's a great check against both Brave Lyn and Rein as a Green tome mage if you give him Gronnraven+ and Triangle Adept 3. And when he's not used for checking Blues or Colorless, you can still use him as dancer support.

I love her. I use her as a dancer who also rally while doing so. She has the super rally skill that rallies all of them. It works great for me. My atk+ one isn't too bad on attack agsinst blue either thanks to TA3.

I'm actually running a TA3 Raven Inigo, PAzura, Blucina, Ike in Tempest right now and it absolutely wrecks. My new favorite infantry team. Move over Olivia/Nino/TA Raven Robin.

It's probably just the Tempest boosts, but after a PAzura dance and being in range of Blucina's buffs Ike is an absolute monster.

Forgot to mention, some of my Auto-battle TT runs were ruined because of Elincia and Titania doing an Ardent Sacrifice -> Reciprocal Aid Infinite Loop.

I had to fix that. lol

I want to use a 5* Felicia but I have a few things to go through.

First, I have both a Felicia with Spd Up/Def Down and one with Res Up/Def Down.

I am limited in what skills I can give her so she'd only be specialised at being a mage killer.

So for example, I could make her a Res tank by having her use Rogue Dagger+, Iceberg/Glacies, Warding Blow/Resistance+3, Quick Riposte/Cancel Affinity and Atk Ploy/Def Ploy.

She could get up to 49 Res with the effects of Rogue Dagger and Warding Blow and then deal 24 extra damage with Iceberg or 39 extra damage with Glacies.

Or, I go with the Spd Up Felicia instead. Use Silver Dagger+, Iceberg/Glacies, Fury, Desperation/Cancel Affinity, Def Ploy.

I would get 43 Spd and 38 Res, still do decent extra damage with either Iceberg or Glacies.

I can still makes tweaks here or there to improve it. (I don't have skills like Distant Defense though.)

I'm in no rush but I wanted to try building some colourless units.

I think the +res Felicia is a better unit. She doesn't have the advantage of color and TA, so she needs the res if she wants to tank a Reinhardt, and she already has good speed.

Guard would be a good B skill to stop QP Moonbow, but Cancel Affinity might be good for all the Raven mages that are becoming more common. You're more likely to be tanking hits rather than attacking so I'm not sure if Warding Blow is all that good. Distant Defense is a luxury option if you're willing to spurge.

For her dagger, if you can afford Seashell then that's the best, since Rogue Dagger only applies the buff after attack. If not, I think just sticking with Silver might be OK. I wish there was a Killer Dagger.

That's why I said I was limited, I have plenty of Mathilda and Titania but I never got Celica or Summer Frederick.

I do think +Res would be better, just difficult trying to make her good.

Yes! I got Young Tiki finally. I had two red orbs on my free summon, I picked the wrong one so if I didn't pick the other one afterwards with some orbs I wouldn't have gotten her.

Noooooo...

My other free summon gave me Female Corrin when I wanted Nowi.

I already have a level 50 Female Corrin, I don't know whether I should send the new one home or save her for Dark Breath+ to give to another dragon.

Another Ninian banner and no Ninian. Don't really care anymore since I scored 3 from the other banner.

Seriously, how many banners has Ninan been on?

I think best budget build would be Iceberg/Res+3/Guard2(or CA3 if you're willing to sacrifice a 5* Matilda). Not much in terms of good A skills otherwise that is cheap enough.

This is why if I had the skills required I'd build something like this:

Felicia Res+

Seashell+
-
Iceberg
Distant Defense
Cancel Affinity
Atk Ploy

But instead, it's going to look more like this:

Felicia Res+

Silver Dagger+
-
Iceberg
Fury
Cancel Affinity
Threaten Atk

Only reason I was thinking Fury over Resistance+3 is because it's a higher SP skill for point cost in Arena.

Otherwise, I also thought about Defiant Res over Resistance+3 because a +7 Res boost would be pretty good, but then again, it might be difficult if I can't tank hits before that.

She's been on so many. She's still an enticing pull, but I'll just hold on to my Orbs.

I got two Dancers to make up for my huge failure to get her, and I will stay on the lookout for any really special banners. Block A is pretty good, though.

I can confirm that it's possible to merge allies after you maxed out the level.

Went to check that I could merge my level 50 5* Female Corrin to my Level 1 5* Female Corrin.

So if I had ended up with a nature I didn't like, I could still merge the +10 unit to another and change the nature while keeping the +10 levels.

I got up to 4842 in Regular Arena, which is my highest yet.

Was actually not that hard with Hector, Nino, Nowi, and Alphonse. Nowi can easily handle Brave Lyn with +DEF, Fury 3, Distant Def 1, and a Spur DEF buff (from seal). Nino tanks and kills Reinhardt. In a few battles, I didn't even see them at all.

I formed a support between Hector and Nino, and they are at B already. Arena Assault is rough, and I still haven't attempted a real streak yet.

I'm at 88,000 points in Tempest Trials after my bonus runs. I consistently get over 4000 points totals from the bonus runs, so I unfortunately have to grind an extra 7000+ points if I want to get 99,999.

I'm skipping out on the gauntlet, so wake me up when something exciting happens.
