Anyone knows why the childs of Awakening (except Lucina) and Fates are missing eventhough the parents can be obtained?

For now probably best to use both - but once they no longer fit into teams then merge after comparing stats.

I got no idea about FE but gatcha logic suggest they will be added later.

I've played multiple, but I've literally never had the problem of not being able to do stuff because I have no actual way to get a proper amount of things like wings (I can't fucking believe you need 20,000 to raise a 4 star character) and the level up crystals. If there was an effective way to grind then it'd be less of a problem, but that's near impossible here.I don't know, maybe I'm just a bit worried since it's their first go at a mobage game. FE's popularity can only carry it so far.

For people worried about feathers, arena actually pays out feathers in 3 categories
I didn't notice this so I thought it was super slow and crappy. This is very reasonable

You can also get feathers by dismissing duplicates, though I don't know if that's a good idea or not. Sure wish I'd known before randomly fusing 3* characters I didn't want, though...

That's fine for getting a 1 to a 4 star but that's way too slow/expensive of a rate to get a 4 to 5
I don't know if I agree.
The people at the top of those lists will be people who already have a lot of 5* characters. It's just another case of the stronger players getting stronger.
Unlucky players who don't already have good 5* characters will still probably be waiting months to get enough feathers to make a single 5*.
I mean, that's how it always works.
Besides, we don't know how arena tiers work. If whales go up in tiers but the rewards don't go up substantially it will balance out somewhat. Whales v whales for slightly better prizes while us scrubs fight against each other for slightly lesser prizes. Being in the middle of a low tier could give more rewards than being at the bottom of a higher tier.
I whale a bit, but i'm getting devoured by the true whales atm.

Even if you get in the top 50,000 you still get 1000 feathers from rank alone
You still drop hard. I am probably not even in the ranking anymore with my measly 2,1k ranking.

Hm, maybe they should force a star limit so non-whales can stand a chance. 4-stars and under only, maybe? Or 1 5-star max (because everyone should at least have 1 of those if you do a few re-rolls and aim for Focus)?
That's why tiers exist.

You don't have much control over defense - I stall have 0 points there.

Hm? Tiers? Sorry, I haven't actually had a chance to see the arena stuff personally as I'm in re-roll hell. >.>
I agree that those requirements are absolutely out ofthis world.But I have faith future events will make them trivial. No other game I can think right now, let you maximize your character on the fourth day of its life without heavy spending, that's way I see no reason to freak out for now.
I'll give them one month to give us a good idea on how they will balance things out,at least initially. Considering DeNa helped develop it, I have faith this game will have a very bright and consumer-friendly future.
If you score high enough you get bumped up a tier and thus will face people in your tier.
So whales and other strong people will constantly go up and face each other while the plebs and unlucky face each other. Since this is the first week everyone is together.

Kinda. Archers will still be good against flyers, but they don't have weaknesses.
Kinda. They're color agnostic but not 'class' agnostic.
Archers are good against flying units, no matter the color. Ninjas are good against Mages, no matter the color.

Does increasing a hero's rank reset skills or do I get to keep my sweet, sweet Dark Breath
Some heroes like Cecillia have innate advantage vs colorless though.

Could give this a shot, be careful of marth/crom/lucinia though.
The positives of this team is it handles how strong armor units are very well
Sadly i didnt have much time to play the game this Weekend - hope i can get some more time in later before going to bed.
How many Story Chapter are there ? I just reached Chapter 9 and its getting a bit tougher, though i have a solid crew.
Also whats the most effective way to level up your units once you hit level 20 ? Also anyone attempting to level/evolve Robin 3* ? Is it worth it ? Havent even looked into what is needed to get him to Rank 5.
Yeah, you cant get out once confirmed...if you dont need the other colors its better to limit your loss. Just pull once and try again once you are back at 20 stones.

I single rolled twice because I wanted only a specific color. If you are just starting I don't think it's that great, but if you are trying to get a good unit of a specific atribute and you dont mind the higher exchange rate go for it.
When I did this with 10 orbs I pulled a 5 star m.corrin and Lyn xD
Uninstalled, but now the play store says my device is not compatible.
Nintendo pls! I've been playing with no issues all weekend long prior to this!
I'm gonna try to manually install the Apk and see if that works. If not I guess I'm done playing the game.

I've been rerolling for four days straight and I'm so tired of it all, I just want to start playing damn it 
To make things worse, on my 5th reroll I happened to get a 5* Takumi... But he wasn't an SS unit on the Altema ranking at the time and I haven't played Fates, so I kept going. If only I had known...
Anyway, I just rolled 5 4*s: Camilla, Sheena, Eliwood, Jakob and someone else. Is this a good roll even though I got no 5*? Should I keep going? I don't intend to do too much PvP so I guess that it doesn't matter that much, but hey, I want to get at least a 9/10 initial roll...

LOL you didn't check out their skills on the summon screen? The close counter skill insta screams bullshit
I just use gordin or setsuna vs takumi (gordin i find more consistent since he just out rights kill you and he has vantage, so he still kills you. Just keep him out of melee range). people sleeping on that brave bow wielder.
For most people even getting into the top 50k is tough with the amount of people playing right now. That and 1000 feathers a week isn't that much. The average f2p player is looking to pull around 2100 feathers a week. Game is still young though, may be other ways to earn feathers in the future.
I did a 7 streak on hard and I'm in the top 2000.
Hmm, I suppose that could be it, seems like I just rolled over a level barely, then the next battle the exp was as if I had rolled over but didn't gain the level. Maybe I'm just imagining things.
So about Odin and the Blarblade that could make up for his mediocre attack stat.
It works by totaling the buff stats Odin receives and adding it onto his attack. For example Hana has a rally +4 atk buff. To Odin that's a +4 default atk buff plus another +4 atk to him, becoming +8 atk. Caeda's +4 rally speed also gives him another +4 attack. That means you could potentially buff him to be a OHKO monster. Unfortunately I missed that Odin was blue and attacking into a green so the math above looks a bit off.
Also same attack buffs don't stack. You can't even trigger rally attack twice on the same unit, and Lissa's +4 atk buff didn't add to Hina's +4 rally atk.
Interestingly Odin also has Defiant Atk passive skill, which gives him Atk +7 if he has less than 50% hp at 5*. That means that alone can give him +14 attack which seems pretty crazy. And then he also has a special skill which resolves combat as if the enemy has 30% less def/res. Stack that up and it can get pretty insane.
But... he probably still sucks because his stats sucks. It was pretty difficult to even level him up to get his Blarblade skill at 3* because he was barely denting enemies. His def and res is also mediocre which means getting him to stay at <= 50% hp isn't that easy. Maybe he has specialized use cases where he can OHKO a big boss.

Odin, Selena, and Laslow are in the game though.
Also is it possible to unlock every 5*' character's skill? Asking mostly because I'm trying to unlock Galeforce for Lyn and Cordelia and its behind a 700 SP wall (200 for Astra and then 500 for Galeforce).

So far my strongest units are:
5 star Takumi
5 star Tiki
5 star Chrom
4 star MCorrin
I'm tempted to roll and get some more blue and green units, but I think it might be better to wait until top tier blue and green units are featured in the banner. I gave up accounts with Lyn and Roy because I really wanted Takumi, so I chased Lyn on this account a bit and was unsuccessful.
