Eirika, the in my opinion most versatile and overall useful sword in the game right now.

I've been using neutral Sanaki for the last several seasons, but she'll be replaced with Ryoma soon.
This seems like one of those high level training tower missions lol
still using my day one Lucina -spd. i counter the bane with fury 3 and speed seal. so i get 43/53/37/28/25. run her mostly with vantage 3 and draw back.
-spd doesn't ruin Ryoma. It makes him Ike.
Not much of a fan of PvP, but I'm still rocking my +SPD -HP Eirika. \o/
really good roster! check iv's but ike/julia/azura seem to be a good choice. you have a lot of fury3 and vantage 3 chars. use them as si food.

Posted a 4670 arena score, my highest ever. Using a blade team with Tharja, Ephraim, and Azura. Used Cherche as my bonus.

After spending money on this game and getting just 4* and 3* roll after roll, I feel like I wasted money on unnecessary drinks for unknown people after being absolutely drunk in a party.
My first gacha game TBH and this is scary. Doing maths since release I have spent like 50 dollars on this. Nearly a full priced console game. Crazy stuff.

Yep, as much as I like Eldigan and Roy, Eirika is never not useful.
I am really hoping to pull Tharja on the female mage banner coming up so I can run Blarblade+ Linde, Nino, Tharja, and Eirika

They got me with this banner, put in for the $27 package and a $20 package, and got two 4*s and a 5* Roy on my last pull. I even have the moral hangover of going out and dropping $100 at a bar.
But I justify it that I've played the game like a full release for free up until now, $50 isn't outrageous for the time I've gotten out of it, but now all I want to do is buy more orbs since I've broken the seal.

I've spent over $100 total on this game, but I don't even regret it. I haven't had a desire to spend on any other entertainment for months, and there's nothing that I really want.
After I've accumulated all upcoming free Orbs, I'm sniping blue stones for Azura. If I don't get a 5*, I'll spend until I get her.

Hope you like Oboro!
Blue is a great color to snipe. Lot of great units and almost all 5* outside of Clair are good to great whereas the other colors have some terrible 5* pulls. Some good SI fodder in there as well.
I'm still using my +spd desperation lucina. But nowadays she's pretty much just a nino and hector killer, since reinhardt takes care of pretty much everyone else
Sophia!
Well, a Rauðrraven, Moonbow, Triangle Adept 3, Quick Riposte 2 build of her. She tanks green and kills colorless. Even Kagero. Especially Kagero.
I will admit that this is not, by any means, a conventional choice, but it works surprisingly well.
I've got my fingers crossed for Tharja too. 😜

I will be disappointed if the blue summon isn't actually Azura, but Ninian would be a very acceptable alternative.
With that said, you're mostly correct. You didn't mention Peri who stinks even more than Clair. Blue is overall fine if you don't summon either of those two, though.

on my main account I sniped over 300 orbs over 3 banners trying to get a good blue unit and it was awful. No Azura, Ninian, Reindhardt, Nowi, Linde or Effie. best I did was a bunch or 3* Robbins and FCorrin. I wish you better luck.

Built in distant counter is why people go Vantage. Allows him to bait Nino and Julia while taking no damage.
Yikes. The odds of something like that happening have to be nearly the same as getting Azura AND Linde in the same number of orbs.
Okay thanks. What should be my 4th unit? Is tanking a thing or is the goal to kill everything?

lol probably.

Leveling up dancer/singer/healer is always a hassle.
Well, Azura actually hit very hard but she dies too easily thanks to my -DEF.
Look forward to level up my -ATK Spring Xander

Best to unequip dance/sing from the one you want level and use one of your free Olivia's to dance them along.

My Tharja does most of the work usually coupled wtih a hone atk 3 Ninian
I wish I had an Eirika though.

I have a Hector, Eirika and Azura that are locks. 4* Tharja and 5* Reindhard both -ATK are my options for 4th slot. Who should I pick?
the goal is to have a great match up coverage. for example with your red you want to be able to kill hector, survive green mages and kill them in one round and kill other reds before they kill you.
You want to bait the ai in a bad position for the enemy phase and then nuke'em away in the next player phase, without suffering to much(dance, draw back, reposition helps there).
for the 4th place ephraim or the arena bonus hero? what you lack is a great blue mage like reinhardt or linde and an axe user. you have cherche, if she is atk+ its worth promoting and give her brave axe.
in general you should check ivs of all 5* to see if they are worth using. check also effie

Probably Tharja. Eirika will cover up that loss of 3 Atk and make it look like a minuscule loss. Put Rally Resistance on Eirika for an extra buff even and to protect Hector when tanking green and blue mages.
My Oliva was at level 35 for over a month. Just got her to 36. Just isn't worth the effort to train directly.

My Julia has the same nature and I just gave her deathblow 3 without thinking too hard about it. it works for what I need her to do but she loses significantly more matchups than if I'd have just given her life and death. So i'd just go life and death 2 if 3 was out of the question. Fury works fine too.

Won't L&D make her too squishy? Well I don't even have her, haha.

Anyone know when x2 SP event ends? Might as well use those unused stamina pots and grind like hell
CrackPebbles

She's already too squishy to be honest lol. Gets doubled by alot of the cast and has low def. I feel that L&D just greatly improves upon whats she's already good at, allowing her to be a nuke and orko many more units. And for a character like her I feel that's more important than trying to balance her lower def and maintain her good res stats out. I guess there's an argument for L&D hurting her good res. But she isn't really gonna be having any problems with mages other than strong reds like Sanaki, Lilina and Leo. Especially if you run G tomebreaker which quite a few julias are doing to deal with opposing julias and ninos.

Double SP event ends on May 6 at 11:59 PM.

Oh plenty of time then
So I have a 5* Soren that I've almost levelled to 40. He's -DEF +ATK. I also have a 4* Nino who's ready to promote and she's -ATK +SPD. Do you think I should just work on putting together a good Soren, or just promote Nino? I don't really have the buffers to put around Nino. I haven't used any SP on Soren so he's got well over 1400 just waiting to be spent. Right now the main staples on my teams are Lucina, Effie, Reinhardt and sometimes I'll sub in Roy, Elise or Karel.

Sounds pretty good. Thanks for the advice.
I have the same IV on my Julia and I swear by darting blow. With a buff she can get to 40 speed on attack and double a lot of people. I haven't crunched the numbers tho, so possible that something else is more optimal. That said, she has done so well for me, from killing hectors to Ninos to anything blue that I'll never switch.

Hoping I can pull something on the hero fest banner before giving up on it. Kinda want Julia from the mage one coming up but she's a bit too similar to Sanaki which I tend to use a lot. It'd be nice to give no fucks about Rein and Linde. Don't have a particularly good answer to either at the moment. Robin with blue tomebreaker gets almost murdered with a single hit from Linde and Reinhardt don't care about no tomebreaker
No Nino?
