I would say it's a conflict of interest as we burn down our flags the chance for another multiplier gets lower. Hmm.

nah 400 per hour means he can (barely) get them all off in time
Yeah, forgot it was 200 tix per 30 minutes, not 100.
Still cutting it pretty close.
Kept waiting for a 3x that never came...

True, but Tharjas are in the same situation of needing to unload flags so it could even out.

Missed Ike. I'm through spending money on this game, man. Every time I do, I get literally nothing of any value. Feel like a fool for cracking and dropping real cash dollars into this game...
Got a decent team; Takumi, Hector, Azura, and Young Tiki. Was looking to round it out with one last S+ tier with Ike, but guess I'm hoarding orbs until he is a 5 Star Focus again, whenever that is...

Team Robin needs to spend their damn flags. I'm in top 8k and I joined from Team Julia with 200 flags
Waiting and praying for another triple. I don't think it'll happen though.

Guess it is a good thing I wake up around 6 am edt because I think I have hit every 3x Robin has had this round outside of maybe one, so my flag hoarding has paid off. In the top 300 now with 785k this round and am rank 20,059 overall.
Sitting on the last 400 for hopefully one last 3x

if it happens, it will be at the very last hour. I'm spending down to 400 and waiting for that, 11PM EST is when I usually get in a little training tower before bed anyways.
I thought I got them all but I must've missed one, unless you had a ton of flags from previous rounds. I spent everything from round 1 on Linde 3x and I used a little bit in Round 2. 609,100 with 600 flags left.

You can only get 2 in. The muliplier runs from XX:00-XX:59
in my experience more like ~ x:04-x+1:04. Even if the countdown is away, you can still snatch the 3x if it says weaker.

You ever noticed how the biggest boobed character in the gauntlet always wins?
theprodigy
Member
ah yes, Lucina definitely known for that
(the obvious most popular character has won so far, so, anything other than "the most popular character always wins" is stretching)

Uhhhh Lucina is flat.

I can fire back with Camilla and (soon to be) Tharja.

look, if Kagero beats Hector or something, then I'll believe that theory
until then, nah
I prefer QR for his B skill, but i do want to put TA on him. Still have never pulled a Roy though.
I'm also considering putting a healing special like Sol on him. I don't think Noontime would heal for enough and Aether takes too long to charge, but Sol should fully charge when he gets attacked as long as the attacker doubles (attacker>Xander>attacker>Xander w/QR), allowing him to heal up during player phase.
But i'm running him in a horse emblem team w/ Elise, blade tome Cecilia, and Jagen (gonna be replaced with Reinhardt once i finish training him to max level), and with Hone and Goad buffs he'll be at 34 SPD, which means he won't get doubled so much.
Also not sure if a healing special is really needed since i'm running Elise.

I like Renewal+Reciprocal Aid for him on that team because he is only there to battle greens and refuel the other units who are better than him at facing their opposite colors. I went with Fury+QR on my horse Emblem team that runs Wrathful Staff Elise.

Got back up to 20'ish Orbs, did a 5x pull. There was a lot of shock on my face:
Celica's weapon seems really...strange? Like powerful for one hit then just ok. Are people using it or giving her a different tome?
Wish I had Mae before I leveled Bunny Lucina and then Reinhardt twice =/.

Breath of Life, Ardent Sacrifice & Reciprocal Aid are all things. Celica is one half of a terrifying combo.

just rolled celica!!! neutral stats. what's the best builds for her? I was thinking renewal, and do ppl keep her A skill?
Pejo
Member
Good point. I gave her Renewal 3 from a spare Fae I had, she'll be ready to nuke every other turn if I protect her with movement skills.
Out of 4*s, which would you guys promote out of:
Ursula, Xander, Nowi, Zephiel, Cherche, Michalis or Klein.
I don't really need any certain type of unit, though I don't have a lot of flying units in general at 5*.

At a quick glance, I think her A-slot is fine. Reducing damage she takes from ranged targets reduces downtime from fighting said targets. You'll have to play with her a bit to see the damage she takes in your average fight, but I think you're looking for sub-20 which can be covered by a Renewal proc and Ardent Sacrifice. Any more, and you'll need to use Reciprocal Aid or a healer to get Ragnarok up again in a reasonable amount of time. If it reaches that point, maybe you'll want to use Life and Death instead.
Well, until some major power creep comes along, you can't really go wrong with more 5* cavalry.
Speaking of it though, I wonder when Hone Dragon'll come...?

So what are the chances we do actually get a last hour x3 multiplier?
Don't count on it.. I've already spent all of mine
poking my head into this thread is insane
i just play this game to pass the time at work
i roll with the free orbs
i level people i get from grand hero battles and 3* rolls up to level 20
i send home every duplicate i get and didn't even know there were IVs
at one point i built an arena team of azama, my highest level lance flyer (est), nino and gordin in an attempt to cover most enemy team compositions i could cover.
and those are my only units appreciably above like level 25, they got to level 40 and i use them to get some amount of feathers from the arena each week
although that rebalance of the feather distribution hit right as i was starting to enjoy getting 2k+ feathers per week and changing all my 3* into 4*. I have like 2 or 3 "bronzes" left right now
the buy to win mechanics are starting to piss me off and I don't know if there's a way i can deal with all the hector teams in the arena anymore without building up to like 40k feathers to turn my silver arena team gold and picking up a hector killer on the way back up to level 40, I can beat someone's 3 team members but then hector's distant counter will annihilate every unit i try to bait or plink him down with aside from a just hard high defense red sword character. of which mine are all around like level 22-27
can you rank up in the arena by making a "low level" team and fighting at those rankings? I tried it a few times and it seemed like it would put me against teams of units on average 5-10 levels higher

Can't wait for a Gauntlet where we won't be able to call the winner before the event even starts.

Gauntlets are pretty underwhelming IMO. Only the first one was any fun, due to the Chrom x Ephraim content.
As it stands right now, the top waifu will still always win (except perhaps versus Ike), and yet, in the grand scheme of things, whoever wins is basically meaningless. There's no real incentive to get involved, and having to constantly check in to remain competitive for feathers is tedious.
The 3x boost didn't change much either. I'd like to see the whole concept scrapped and replaced with more interesting events.

Wouldn't Reinhardt win for horses? If grand battle heroes are not eligible, who else would compete?

that's the September gauntlet, where Leo finally wins one after coming in 2nd place in the July gauntlet
Eliwood would have a good shot.
I find it a bit sad that Eliwood isn't even in the 5* hero pool. Dudes the main character of the first English Fire Emblem game!

His art is too bleh.
Leo or Elise cuz of cinnamon roll status.
I'm confused. Aren't you like the world's biggest MRobin fan?
