So what's a solid Nowi build? I've got her at + speed and -res which is apparently pretty alright. I have the 20k feathers to get her upgraded. I also have fury 3 and Vantage on deck as well.

This whole multiplier thing literally made me drop over 20k places compared to the previous two gauntlets. Wonder how a Merric->Leo->Robin player ranked.
Reeeeeeeeeeeally hope they overhaul it
hmm thanks. don't think i have any spare TAs though. does that same build work for azura? fury / swordbreaker?

the most widely used one is TA + QR, which destroys all reds and most physical damage blues.
This was from my last round in the voting gauntlet but it didn't count since it went past the closing time.
So often I kept fighting Azura in that gauntlet, it was a pain. I couldn't beat her normally in this situation so I kited her around the map.
That's a WoW term, just giving a hint if people haven't done it. Basically the map was to my advantage because I had a ranged attacker and the opponent can't counter.
So what I had to do was keep running around in circles on both sides of the map where I could hit her but she couldn't close in on me. It finished when I went behind the wall next to me, as in when I got the last hit on her and won.

You loser, Robin. I thought he'd be the clear winner. Should have known to always bet on waifus

Triangle adept and quick riposte, got it.
If it were me though I would pick Vantage.
After experiencing fighting an Ephraim with distant counter and Vantage, he really screwed over my perfect win streak in arena because I couldn't​ find a way to beat him.
So basically I would prefer characters that hit big and are slow to have vantage if they can counter at any range because they are so dangerous.
Well, we've got Lucina, Camilla and Tharja out of the way now. So long as the next voting gauntlet doesn't include Ike or maybe Lyn, we might actually get something without a blindingly obvious outcome next time.
I sure hope IS isn't taking the results of these gauntlets as feedback for the next Fire Emblem title otherwise we could be in for the worst game yet in terms of characters.
Didn't like the 3x multiplier all that much. Every time it followed the same pattern of swinging the lead backwards and forwards for the first few hours before plateauing as people ran out of flags. Essentially, if you weren't there at the start of the round where the 3x bonus kept switching sides, it became hard to get a decent score and you had to keep checking in every hour on the hour to see if your side got the 3x bonus yet. It also didn't really alter the results so much as just making sure it wasn't a one-sided stomp while screwing up the flag management and ranking systems and making things tough on people that can't check-in every hour (or half-hour in 3x periods).
Voting gauntlets kinda suck, actually.

Is there a detailed online guide for the inherit skill system? I've got a ton of 5 and 4* lvl 40 characters. I haven't inherited skills for any of them. Just seems kind of overwhelming with the amount of skills and which should be be used for which type of character etc. Don't wont to screw anything up since it seems to permanently destroys the characters you take skills from.

10th stratum has the weirdest things man
I'm pretty sure Camilla and Tharja being popular wasn't an earth-shattering revelation for IS. They'll keep providing a range of character archetypes with an eye towards maintaining merchandisable visual appeal.
There are recommended builds for most characters on sites like the FEH wiki or Gamepress.
Alternatively there is a link to our Discord server in the OP of this thread where we are always glad to help newcomers with building their teams.
What if the release for launch popularity vote contest....was a gauntlet?
With + speed fury puts her into a respectable doubling avoidance tier
BTW is there a reason for 5 orbs today?

Yeah, the NA Echoes release. It says so on the notification.

Lloyd has Pass and Threaten Atk.
You could've done that just looking at his face

The only Pass this Lloyd can do is pass the meth.
His Sword grants +2 ATK/SPD when foes have 100% health.

HAHAHAHAHA
At least I'll be able to give Seliph Threaten Atk now. The ultimate Hector counter.
Last Lunatic quest for Rite of Shadows was brutal. Ended up using a blessing of light :/ All the others just required a different mix of units/strategies than I normally run. This is basically the anti mage group of enemies.
Had beaten it previously with Kagero doing work, but breaking up their starting positions to debuff them almost always resulted in a dead unit.

Let's see if Nino's role model is as good as Nino.
I'm fishing for her as well, got 10 orbs and very tempted to do a yolo pull. Do we get the 20 orb bonus tomorrow?
Just pulled a neutral Genny from the free orbs. Are people moving Wrathful Staff to other characters? I don't have an Elise, but have 5* Maria (Never checked the IV) and Lachesis (+ATK/-RES). Anything worth doing with them? Lachesis attack is 45 but Maria's speed is out of this world tied in with Miracle could allow you to take a hard hit, not die and then counter.
Hmm research tends to indicate to maybe hold off for an Elise especially if I'm going for Pony Emblem (which I am, have Rein and Xander and another 20k feathers ready).

The announcement only states "near future" but not a specific date. If past experience is any indication, it probably won't be that soon. We might need to wait a few days, but it should at least come before the Celica banner ends.

At least she's good Wrathful Staff fodder.
I saw the tweet about Lloyd being in the GHB tomorrow. Now I see what everyone was reacting about.
Don't know, they said "in the near future".

Maybe wait till you get 4* Cain? He gets Wings of Mercy 3 at 4*. Granted, I am still waiting for one since Day 1.
I'm sure you must have a bunch of Fredericks to steal Wings of Mercy 2 (and New Moon if you need to build up to Moonbow etc.).
I'm sketchy on giving up a 5* for skills that are available at 4. I've only used up one 5*, and that was an Odin I promoted just to give away his tome. I was going to get rid of this -atk Roy for TA3, but right after I pulled him he was an arena bonus character and I need to use him. So unless I have extras I'd rather keep them around.
There's also the event starting presumably next week, we have few details but we do know if a unit is lost then they can't be used again for the event. So I'd rather have a decent pile of characters to use.
