Tempest Trials banner is so good, I blew 50/100 saved orbs and landed one five star. Wanted Celica, would take Sonya because I already blew a ton of orbs hunting her last time, and would be very happy with a non -spd Delthea.
Landed a neutral Delthea. And my first Chrom, and some Jagen fodder.
Merge or save for SI? Death blow is useful, but it's only feathers to promote a Hawkeye or the like for it. Klein isn't happening because colorless hell. Drive attack seems a bit niche, but also pretty great as a c skill for a non-horse or flier who isn't busy buffing.
If I land Julia before I run out of orbs I may come back for a second chance at it. Choose your legends is set back to hopefully it's a month long banner status or still a couple months away, because I'll probably be empty next month.
Arena assault is pretty frustrating. Ended up with 4718. Around rank 3000, but I'll bet I'll drop into the 5-10000 range soon. Will try again. Frustrating limping through battles. Basically I did advanced to set the tone, easy to restart if my non ideal team drops a unit, back to advanced with my two elite teams for final two battles. In between went beginner or intermediate depending on strength of team and enemy lead unit.

draug = killing edge + bonfire + darting blow
4335, made it through on Arena Assault with 6 deaths and only picking Advanced matches (682-688 range) and it was my first run so I had no items. Not bad. I'm in need of more positional assist moves and a Ninian to help out. I have a bunch of 5*s with no SP spent ready for some SI too, guess it's time to get at that.
Glad I have a squad capable of doing it and I'm nowhere near maxed on potential. Now I'll go for a Flawless run using items on intermediate, should be easily doable since you can see the maps ahead of time.
Really fun mode.

Budget build for Zeph is to put Attack + 3, Wary Fighter, Pivot, and Hone Armor.

Well, I'm back to saving until next month. I really won't have much for Hero Fest.
Couldn't really resist the urge with such a big Orb count, so I summoned for Celica. After about 100 Orbs, I get 5* Tharja. This is my first one ever, and this would have somewhat made up for Celica.
I check the stats, and the nature is...+DEF/-SPD. -SPD is deflating for this otherwise good summon. I'm super disappointed about the spread, but I just have to make due with what I have as a F2P user. Tharja will be leveled up regardless.
There was pretty good fodder at least. I salvaged 2 Hinatas, 1 Lon'qu, and my second 4* Eirika (+ATK/-RES) from the wreck.
Hero Fest is good for the rates, but nothing here honestly matches up to what I already have. Ike is great, but I can't really expect any pull to beat +SPD/-HP Ryoma. Genny is only good option for me, but I can live without her for now.
I'll be destroying the trials with Sonya, so this month is still exciting overall.

I am in Hero Fest just for Ninian.
I need 3 Dancers for the new Assault modes.
(Plus I was sad that I didn't pull her during her debut months ago.)

Then upgrade to Slaying Edge when you manage to pull Saber.
Chain Challenge 11 + 12 Hard was awful, especially with all the strict time limits. My working plan ended up being Ephraim/Tharja/Cherche/Olivia in order to make it through that defense chapter. Then Eirika/Nino/Lucina/Olwen to power through as much as they could until they died. Needed them to make it as far as they did so that Horse Emblem was as fresh as it could be to tear through the remaining levels. Not looking forward to doing that on Lunatic.
Cheers, lads.
Having a hard time finding Setsuna, eh?

At this point I think it is only worthwhile merging 5* that can also be summoned at 4* and/or don't have all that useful skill fodder. Nowi is like the queen of this. I've gotten 3 of her at 4* and two when she was on a banner, and she doesn't really have skills that are really desirable for other units. Units like Delthea have insanely good skills and can only be had at 5* so getting multiples her is a low chance and it really isn't worth the +1 to HP and one other stat.
Speaking of merging should I merge +Atk or +Speed Olivia at 4*? I have enough to be at +7.
Speed imho. You either only use her to dance or you will give her gem weapon/TA to make her at least competent against greens. With dancers' lowered BST, even a +Atk Olivia isn't really going to excel in combat, but +SPD improves not only her offense but also survivability, which I consider to be more important for her role. I say this as someone who have been using a -Atk (a really nasty -4) +Spd Olivia 5*+2 with Ruby Sword+ and Fury 3 for months.

Been getting 4* units like Chrom and Seliph that I never saw before. Might be that increased rate at work. Was looking for a 5* mage like Celica or Lilina though. And really quite set for swords at this point.

What A and B skills do I put on Eirika?
Still not sure how to handle the infernal battle this time around. Every successful strategy I've seen seems to rely on some super strong nuker like B.Cordelia, Nino, a fully SIed Rein, or a blade tome horse of some sort.
It's making me realize that I have a lot of tank units, but very few offensive nukers.

Killing Edge over Wo Dao or Slaying Edge? What why?

I generally agree with the merging. My spare Bunny Lucina is definitely Swift Sparrow 2 fodder, though I haven't found a candidate. DB3 is a fantastic skill, so -SPD Delthea is good fodder. I spent 20K Feathers on Hawkeye solely for my Bridelia to have that skill, and the cost was absolutely worth it.
I think that +SPD is the best nature for Olivia, so I would use that as a base.
I'm coming to peace with Tharja, since she can at least OHKO without a huge Feather drop.
I also overlooked the defensive capabilities of the Blade tome. The extra damage from the buffs prevents Tharja from losing to Nino on enemy phase, so she's not quite the sitting duck I mistakenly thought she was.
slaying edge if you're lucky enough to have pulled a saber yeah. but dunno why you'd want 10 damage over a 2 charge bonfire
I thought about Wo Dao too but my Draug has Bonfire. 2 goes to trigger it seemed much more fun though. 🔥
This is mine.
One of my favourite units in the game.
you need to get a rally def/res +3 on her if you really love her
Advice duly noted. Anything that keeps me out of the dog house. 👀
I'd build Draug with Killer/Slaying Edge/Wo Dao, Life and Death (or Fury), and Vantage. Basically like other fast killer weapon users except he can get triple Ward Armor buffs and destroy the metagame with Bonfire. Even with Life and Death he'd still have 46 Def, which means 36 Bonfire damage.
Zephiel is practically purely Enemy Phase so the best build is Distant Counter/Wary Fighter and probably Wo Dao Moonbow, but his personal weapon is fine too.
If your unit already has the prereq, then you don't need to inherit it again when sacrificing another unit for SI.
For example, you can do this:
one SI sacrifice onto a unit: take Level 1 and 2 version of a skill
another SI sacrifice onto the same unit: take justthe Level 3 version of the skill. Don't need to take the Level 1 and Level 2 versions.
ah ok.. but the receiving unit, along the way, HAS to have all 3 levels of the skill?

*prepares a hand*
yep. you can't get fury 3 without getting fury 1 and 2. and some skills have different named requirements. i.e. swift sparrow 1 and 2 need deathblow 1.
Yep. The receiving unit has to have all prerequisites to get a skill. Progressing past what you want is optional, though.
For example, if you want Fury 2, then the receiving unit needs Fury 1. But you don't have to have Fury 3 if you don't want to get it.
Interesting. So if you move a character into damage range but then drag them back, it will still get the enemies to move from their first spot? Does that always work?
Yes, otherwise you could just snipe down any map with Reposition spam.
I like how two of those rare units are dupes. You are a friend to IntSys!
Goad isn't that great, as it needs you to attack to proxy. You should farm some of the old man paladins and pass on their hone cavalry and fortify cavalry skills to your horse units. Those have start of turn proxies and are easy to get.

Tried pulling for celica and failed. Now I have no orbs for hero fest RIP. At least I pulled my second ever hinata for fury fodder.
Not sure if this was mentioned earlier but there is an easy way to get arena assault items if you're looking to farm them. If you start with one lvl40 unit and and fight on beginner difficulty it will put you in a 1 v 1. From then on you can use a full team against beginner difficulty and it will always be vs 1 hero.

Woah. That seems like a big loophole

Seeing as you can't use the same character again on chain maps I actually like having Goad off of Reinhardt and on another unit. Reinhardt is the best Calvary unit to give Fortify Calvary to because he operates on the assumption of not getting attacked and would benefit from a Goad buff way more than a Fortify buff. Unfortunately the only way to inherit Goad is 5* Rein or 4* Camus. I sacked a 4* Camus to make the following.
Xander - Hone Calvary
Blade Cecilia- Goad
Reinhardt- fortify calvary
Camus - Goad Calvary
Wait. Do hone and goad stack?

Yes. Not only that, but goad stacks with itself. Making a cavalry or flier team far more effective if more than one member has it.

Yes.
Goad is like a super charged Spur ability. It does both speed and attack +4 and within two spaces.

I wish that I would pull S.Corrin already.
