Rather than Zelgius, given that Oscar's on the banner, I can see Boyd or Rolf as the Tempest Trials unit.
A single 3-unit banner, with 2 of them being blue is indeed rather weird. It's making it hard for people to justify pulling. It feels more like a "Heroes with X skill" or BHB banner rather than a new flagship banner. Wouldn't a 3-unit Crimea banner and a 3-unit Daein/Begnion banner at the same time have made more sense, just like Alm's army and Celica's army?
Anyway, guess they will need to have 3 "random" characters in the arena bonus char set as opposed to the usual 2 then, something that has not happened since launch.
Oh, didn't know they had Zelgius as the Tempest Trials unit, just that Nephenee was on a banner.I mean, people aren't guessing, here. The Nephenee/Oscar/Elincia banner was mentioned by the same person who leaked the whitewing/narcian twitter campaign ahead of time. That person also said Black Knight would be a Tempest Trial reward.
It's pretty funny/sad how that other lance guy is obviously inserted purely to be the dud pull for people trying to get Nephenee.
Time to waste all my orbs not getting Nephenee!
Really weird there's only 3 characters and not 4. Why not Shinon or Mia?
Decided to spend my orb stash on my alt to try for a second Hector, since I really don't have any of the pieces for a flier team. 80 orbs later and all I got were 2 Sonya's with meh( +hp/-Res ) to bad (+Res/-spd) IVs and some SI fodder. I don't even know the odds of getting the same off banner 5* unit twice in that many orbs, but I'd have to believe it is far less than getting a single Hector.
The only downside of BK being a TT reward is that we won't have Eclipse as a skil. The upside is that we won't have to spend 20k feathers.
Why not? They've been building him up for a while now... I don't think he will be your run of the mill fodder unit.
Damn, I really want Elincia and Nephy, but Oscar feels so weird as the 3rd PoR unit lol (only three too? Mia pls ;
Oh well, got 89 orbs saved; might as well go for the first two.
Only seems natural that after Oscar turns up, his 'rival' follows!Tune in next banner when they announce even more fan favorite Tellius units such as Mia, Skrimir and Kieran! Marvel over Mia's legendary Super Wo Dao+, cower before Skrimir's terrifying +10 Attack ability, and hide in fear as Kieran rides into the battlefield with a his fearsome Emerald Axe+!
speaking of massive amounts of SP...

you're not doing it right the lame unit has to have color overlap with one of the others
But merging Cecilia would be a better investment considering the bullshit GHB, SA and CC to come.These brave Lyns and reinhardts got me considering merging my 4 Soren's at 4* and promoting an extra Cecilia to give him Gronnraven+. That plus TA3+Bowbreaker makes him a hard counter to Lyn AND Reinhardt at the same time. +3 4* is meh but I imagine I will get more in the future.

That's an insane amount of green pulls. Now you can save for a 5*+10 lolWhat if I told you I have a 4*+10 Cecilia AND a 3* and 4* Cecilia?
Some people get Barst and Batre, I get Cecilia.
Stretching things out now.
The real trick is the Dawn Brigade banner where they inexplicably have Sothe, the new best Dagger user in the game and Leonardo, actual trash on legs.
4820 should do. At least that's what I got last week and I'm in tier 20.what kind of score was needed to get into T20 last week? I easily got in with 4806 last time but from what I hear scores are inflated right now due to the free CYL pick.
6/7 on my run with 4144 points. I usually like to take a small score hit and coast through the final match with cavalry, because I routinely get trolled by the last fight. And this is boat/breakable walls defense tile bullshit map week.
I think I should really hold off pulling from PoR Banner II and wait for PoR Tempest banner instead. I really want Elincia, but I don't care about Nephenee enough, especially when she's sharing the blue chance with Oscar the Uninspiring. If I can just stay strong and wait a little more than a week, a banner more worthy of my orbs shall arrive.
Think about it. Ike is definitely a 40%, there's just no way he isn't. He's literally expected to duel BK in this Tempest. Judging from past experience, the 40% set is likely going to be comprised of 2 units from PoR banner I and 2 from PoR banner II. The 2 from PoR II are likely Elincia and Nephenee. The last one from PoR I can be any of the 3 besides Ike. If it is Soren then the banner is pretty good (Ike, Soren, Elincia, Nephenee); it covers the 3 non-hellish colors with good units (Soren isn't top tier but he's still a solid Reinhardt counter useful in AA). Even if it turns out to be Mist as the "theme" requires, which is the worst case, Elincia + Nephenee + Ike is still better than Elincia + Nephenee + Oscar.
But we all know someone won't be playing a Gacha game if he is rational; I will probably still fail to resist the temptation and waste all my orbs tomorrow on reds. Sad.
But I don't want Ike to break my pity rate.
Ike?But I don't want Ike to break my pity rate.
or this guy
Ike as a tempest banner unit with those boosted stats will be extremely satisfying.
I only had Lyn (and Eliwood, but come on...) for this Tempest until like 2 hours ago. Even with boosted stats, Lyn wasn't all that great. Especially coming off Delthea and Celica last time.
I'll throw renewal 3 on Ike, along with Aether and let him go to work.
Not against inflated Hector he won't. What a beast.Ike is the god of autobattle even without boosted stats. He'll damn near solo Lunatic 5 in this one.
Scrounged together ten orbs to make one last stab at a second Hector after blowing through 80 last night. Go to pull and get no greens! Rage pulled with my last 5 and get presented with two green orbs, argh! Chose the right one because....because, and low and behold a Hector appears! Going to hold him for now but I have a +spd/-hp Titania at 4* that would love to take it. If she is a bonus unit for the next TT I'll do it definitely.
Back to saving for a potential Halloween banner.
DCers are generally good in Tempest auto-battling because the AI can't "stupidly move units into attack range of an enemy your units can't counter" anymore. lol Plus Aether's healing is also helpful in Ike's case.
BTW, I just noticed the new story chapter will feature enemies like BK and Bike. I can't help but start worrying about what kind of BS lunatic CC 13 & 14 can be. Good thing we will know what BK look like soon enough though.
