Truly a battle for the ages. Thanks voting gauntlet.

I actually had to manually corner the enemy team so Hector could slowly move towards them and eradicate them. It might have gone on forever on auto-battle.

Still haven't managed to pull any other CYL characters outside of my free Lyn but I have three Reinhardts now.
 
Wow. I missed a multiplier because I didn't wait a few minutes for it to pop up. That's some BS.

EDIT:
Yeah but then Lyn will be left vulnerable if Ike lives. So Ike is dead if Lyn is buffed. Gotcha.

Don't Lyn's buffs get nullified because of her horse?

EDIT:
Oh. Regular Ike. Nevermind then.

EDIT:
Is the Kagero Chart calculator updated? Steady Blow isn't giving Ike +4 Def for being attacked. He should survive with 8 HP.

Speed is one of his best boons, with 31 it allows him to avoid doubles.

Anyway, Team Ike has bonus hour right now!

Yeah got lucky I just logged on, woohoo.

After placing 998 overall in the last guantlet by playing underdogs I hadn't gotten a single multiplier and am not even ranked right now by rolling with Ike.
 
Went with Camilla this time just because I have her, not the others. Keeps things simple, although if this was a straightforward actual vote it would just as simply be for Lyn. Ehh, win or lose this thing, some good feathers come in. Got my 2500 from Tharja time.

Also, last team up was an oddball. All blue enemies including an Azura. I get stuck with a healer and a sword but happened to bring my Amelia. Heh.

edit: Figures, now I randomly bring Rein and get a Rein, MRobin team...against Julia. Funny. Should have just brought Camilla.

Picked Brave Lyn as my free Brave Summon. Then I went fishing for another Brave Hero. I didn't care who I got, I would have been happy with any of them, even another Brave Lyn. After 100 orbs, I got Leon and Innes. I got 3 more archers now. Uh.... thanks Fire Emblem Heroes?

Both are probably the best archers after Lyn and Cordelia.
 
+SPD/-RES BIke this morning! And I used my free summon on BLyn... just need BRoy now.

I gotta level them to 40 and think about SI though.

Edit: or feed Bike to Ryoma?! Hmm.

Titania is a monster due to her speed and res. If you are running Rein/Xander/Camus she is the perfect fit cause they all have weaker res. I spent 40k feathers decking out a Cecilia with Barblade+, etc, and I still use Titania on my main team. That being said my Lyn, Cecilia, (Hopefully Roy), and Mathilda team is almost done.

Just finished leveling Clive, Amelia, and Lyn together. Popped Amelia into my Arena team to replace Legion to do the voting quests and landed 4812 without cherry picking a single matchup. Her BST is crazy, I don't even have an A, B, or Support skill on her. She's actually useful too. 4812 will definitely be good enough for T20, 4806 was cutting it close.

Don't have a Bridal Cordelia, but I wasn't expecting 3 archers.

I think this game doesn't want me to get an Ike, I spent about 500 orbs over various banners for Ike, any version, trying to build up a pity rate on the Hero Fest to 7%, sniping for Reds on his initial banner, having 4 greens, and 1 colorless on the CYL banner, and the 1 being Innes.

So I pulled 2 bIkes, +HP -DEF and +SPD -DEF. Confused on which one is better. The concensus on Reddit appears to be that SPD boon is bad since his speed is mediocre anyway and he wants to get doubled as often as possible to trigger his special. But then I see some comments like Roman's above that +SPD is very good. Which one should I use?

+HP will help make up for the -def. Especially since he mitigates most of the damage from being doubled (which is where more Def is more useful than a bigger health pool).

+spd will allow you to double Hector I think, but I don't know if Green Ike is the unit to bring for green armors. He's there to tank fliers and horses.

All this talk of Titania. I have a +SPD -DEF. I should go hunting for Distant Counter, Quick Reposte and/or G Tomebreaker.

That's the best Titania. She want DC, GTB, and *thing*.

i have a +spd/-res titania and i think she's trash ¯_(ツ)_/ ¯

maybe the res bane is why

She's nothing special outside of Horse Emblem because her attack is kind of low. Even in Horse Emblem she's still a specialist against blues, but with buffs she can withstand green mages. Her speed with Fury 3 gets really crazy, into the high 40s after a single Hone Cavalry so taking single hits from a Nino is possible. Iceberg is her ideal special due to her high Res.

Definitely a niche/specialist unit but she does fit perfectly into the current meta as a blue sponge. Mine is +HP/-DEF so she can't really take on green axe users but slap ATK Ploy seal and Reciprocal Aid on her and shes a great support unit.

-Res isn't great, but the way she's used it's fine and she's a 4* pull now so you can always upgrade later.

I want DC so badly for mine. Hector still avoiding me though.
 
What nature is your Ryouma?

He's -DEF/+RES, but a +2, with +1 bonuses in HP, ATK, and SPD. So yeah, he could really use that +4, since I (for some reason) run him as a Fury/Vantage/Noontime damage soak.

Same thing I do with Hector.

It's not optimal, I guess, but they just heal themselves consistently.

I'll likely keep BIke for now, since I'm really hesitant to sacrifice a 5*. Only thing I've really done with natural 5*s is feed DC to Zephiel.
 
Neat, just got Brave Lucina, good enough +atk -def on a 5 orb one shot. I really can't complain about the decent number of 5*s I've been getting after only short lulls. I usually throw orbs at the summons as soon as 5 or 9 unless there is a big orb dump at once. Sometimes at 4 orbs for that one extra after the new banner freebie. Personally just not keen on sitting it out to build up a pile of orbs and watch them all go down the crapper at once.

So, spent a few orbs on the Hector banner, since I didn't have him yet, and I pulled 2 of them, yeah!
First one is +spd -atk, second one is +hp -def... am I right in keeping the second one and feeding the first one to another unit for DC?

Note: I'm not an expert in this game.

But that's what I'd do. I sacrificed a -ATK Hector for Zephiel, and I know others have sacrificed -ATK Hectors for Effie.

Gah, I'm so torn trying to get more Brave units or keep going for Hector. I'm at 4% pity rate on both and have used up all my free orbs, so now I'm just doing a full pull every few days.

Yes, I have a -def Hector and he still walls attacks really well. It just means he is more susceptible to swords is all. That high HP pool will be great against Reinhardts as well. I actually think defense is his second best bane, first being speed. HP bane leaves him with lower pool to field the before mentioned Reinhardts and res banes makes that trickeir as well.

So yea, feel good about that Hector. 34 defense is still really good, especially with the extra HP.

Yeah, atk does seem like an important stat to him, so I suppose I'll hang on to the second one and who knows maybe one day I'll pull a better one!
Still don't know who to give DC to, I have a +atk Effie on which I really like death blow, so maybe that'll give me a reason to promote zephiel...

Yeah, I got really lucky on the CYL banner, got Ike and Lucina in less than 25 orbs, with the free Lyn I'm only missing Roy but eh, I can live with it. ^^
So I decided to push my luck going for Hector, and got two in 60ish orbs... and even a Seliph (meh) with it, so that's 5 five stars in less than 100 orbs, I'm rarely that lucky.

OK, cool, thanks! That does sound quite a bit better than I thought when explained like that! :)
