Good to know, I keep him and robin near each other so he typically lives through stuff and slaughters everything. I don't use an archer to tank haha I have them to manhandle stuff in these games

Why not Robin for the blue? He's pretty tanky too for his healer and decent enough at 4*.
No that will be the Dark Knight with a 1-2 range sword, eclipse as his special, and he will be tanky to both physiical and magic.
It will be like mission in PoR where you have to avoid him cause he will tear you up if you don't.
But yeah hopefully they don't do that.

Oh woops didn't notice him for some reason, yeah Robin works as an alternative, gives you a counter vs colorless foes as well.
Lili is just really really strong haha. Honestly if they wanted to do a no healer team I'd put lili and robin both on
Rob goes behind lyn, lili behind gunter
I am looking forward to the day these stealth brag posts stop. *sigh*
Yes, dear Razmos, your 4 5-star characters are good!!!!!! You're aware of the tier rankings so I don't know what you are looking for from any of us.
Hey I deserve this after the way Final Fantasy Brave Exvius fucked me and didn't even leave me their number

Where do you see this stuff at?
They did this in Fates. Your characters have their stats decided on first encounter, like IVs/Natures.
Wait, no they didn't. Unless you mean having set level ups, but that was on Lunatic mode only. And even then, maxing out stats was still possible via stat boosters.
It seems like now you need to cross your fingers twice (though I think most nature set ups should be fine)
This is the most complete set of average stats I've seen: https://www.reddit.com/r/FireEmblemHeroes/comments/5se1ep/average_stats_of_some_5_heroes_at_lvl40/ It's mostly right as far as I've observed.
What seems to happen is that each hero has a high stat (+3) and a low stat (-3). With HP it can sometimes be +/- 4 which is why you can have two level 40 heroes of the same type with different total ratings.

Yeah, I was thinking Robin could replace Jacob because he serves the same purpose (and gives defense to allies) So I'm gonna go ahead and level him up to 19 right now and see how that goes. Thanks guys.
hey thanks
I wanted to tell her this but I wasn't completely sure if the chances thingie "refreshed" every 5 summons or not.Hopefully I'll convince her to play a little more.
Which stat do you generally not want?
Would depend on the character/role. All stats are important. I think they did a pretty good job with that.
Wondering if I should pull on these banners anymore or wait for the next.
I have Marth, Lyn, and Camilla at 5* (super lucky so far. After rerolling a bit and just starting the game when Marth showed up, each subsequent pull as resulted in a 5 star). Following that up I have a 4* Sully as my Lancer with 4* Donnel around too. Unfortunately for me Marth and Lyn cover pretty similar roles but I'm using them anyways.
There are big holes in my team in both magic damage and healing, I have no 4 stars in any of those roles. I'm working on a Celilia (green mounted mage) and Giaus (dagger) who are both 3 star ATM, but I don't think they'll be anything to write home about. Zero healers whatsoever! I also lack Armored Knights.
Basically I'd be shooting for either Robin or a Takumi in each banner. But other than those two, these banners are flooded with red red and more red.
What do you guys think?
I was thinking of slow rolling for Grey (maybe blue too) and just eating the orb costs if I get unlucky. Is that worth doing?

That's what I did, that said I got lucky in that I only had to do 2 grey pulls to get Takumi.
Further evidence that Sharena and Anna are really good units.
Yeah I am willing to sacrifice a few orbs in order to get better chances to pull what I want. I simply don't need any more red units!

Looking like my high score will be 3.5k with my ragtag team of one 5* Roy, two 4*s and a 3* healer. Rank 11,910. Shame I couldn't get a single defense win.
That's probably going to depend on what the hero is for.
For anything that's already really slow you want -Spd. That's free stats. But for anything with a Spd in the high 20s or low 30s I could believe that +Spd is the best possible roll.
I think that generally things with good Res have too much - you'd really like to trade off points of Res for something else. It still won't be worth it to bring a mage within two tiles of them.
A lot of fragile things are probably happy losing Def or Res since they're going to get killed in one or two hits anyway. They might even prefer HP to those since it gives a little extra one-shot protection against everything, and they're generally never going to want to give up Atk or Spd.
Come on, son. Takumi is so FOTM.
Yeah indeed, that was my logic. xD There's just too many.
Since I don't have 4 5*'s I've been using Robin 4* as a 4th and he's been solid for me.

While 5* Robin is good, I feel like he's one of those characters where the 4* is GOOD ENOUGH.
I'm currently running 5* Lyn, Tharja, Roy and 4* Felicia. But I'm wondering if I should drop our boy Roy and slot in Robin instead?

Kinda iffy but plus speed isnt bad. She's mostly there to oneshot someone and blow up the team getting a x4 swing off just gives a free ult and most likely kill
I use a 4-star Robin on my main team (and kick 5-star character to the bench) and I would have to agree with this post. Even at 4 star he is pretty darn awesome. My first 20k feathers are going to him or Chrom, depending on my needs at that time.
I'm currently in reroll mode right now. I should have just stayed with Leo or Lyn when I had them, but I honestly want Hector/Takumi/Ryoma.
My most recent run is: 5* Jeorge, 4* Tiki, 4* Lilina, 4* Felica, and 3* Cherche.
Should I continue my reroll journey or settle with these units for now?

Yeah 4 star rob is still good, it's just 5 star rob IS THAT MUCH BETTER kinda the same thing with fem corrin
No. You start from scratch (except skills).

Can probably do a little better than that, honestly. Though, I feel bad saying that because I have a 5* Jeorge and he's easily one of my MVPs.
Man, I'm just finishing up hard chp 9 and holy shit that stamina cost per stage.
No, it's ok game, I didn't want to play you for more than 3 minutes anyways.
Cheers mate
I would reroll tbh. But as a heads up, Ryoma and Hector are not boosted, so the odds of getting them are very, very low. Takumi IS boosted though, so 6% is pretty good odds, as these things go.
FGO's core strength is the story. Late game chapters are fantastic, and made everything worth it. Having gone through it all though I do admit I'm burnt out on the game... I mean, how the hell do you plan on one-upping that? At best I'm expecting the kind of letdown going from UBW to Heaven's Feel on the original Fate/SN. I'm collecting dailies, going through the revived event quests and mostly sitting on a full stamina bar while I see what they plan to do next. Lack of competitive MP means I don't need to force myself to upgrade this and that.
Granblue's strength is the core gameplay. Its downfall is excess grinding and guild events and MP bosses that require way too much coordination outside of the game and way too much commitment in-game to be successful. The story has always been trash and a waste of a great cast of voice actors. I log in occasionally when there's free pulls but that's about it.
Over the long term I feel FGO's way will prevail. FEH's arena point system is great for casual play since it's not completely about who can keep their phone glued to their face all day long. There needs to be a tweak to the number of arena tokens you get daily, but otherwise there's a foundation for a good story mode complemented by a competitive mode that doesn't turn into something you absolutely loathe.
Also, considering how much of a trainwreck FGO was when it first came out IS is in a great spot w/ FEH. Yes, there will be a fair number of people quitting over the next few weeks, but refinements can and will be made if they at all care about their IP.

There isn't yet, but it does show you what the enemies weapons are before you start a map. As long as you're sensible (bring units at a higher level and don't only bring sword users to the map with 3 lancers), you should be fine, barring maybe chapter 9.
That's true. I still have a little way to go before it's kind of set in stone. I'm guessing that out of the given stats, middle of the road would be best for her... or maybe +ATK/-RES?
Unfortunately she's my only 5 star, so I'm putting a lot of pressure on her, heh.
