Alright, alright calm down i'm not here to pick a fight. Traditionally, doubling has been the primary of method of dealing with tanks since that's how you kill them in one round. Ideally, a tank buster should be able to kill a tank by themselves and not have to rely on a teammate to do it for them. But maybe I am looking at it the wrong way; Ephraim has an amazing proc skill, good defenses and high attack; he's like an armor knight with average mobility.
I wish I got my hands on him...
You have to beat level 6 and up. I feel like they are more common on level 8 and up. That might be confirmation bias on my part though.
I would definitely go with Corrin then.

Trying to improve my rank, and it looks like I can get to 4200 offense. My previous score of around 4000 has me ranked at 22700, so I'm excited to see what 200 extra points will do.
I saw tons of Lucinas, so that's making me speed up Linde's training. She's at 29, and I won't continue the streak till she's at least mid 30s. I'm doing fine, but I wish I had better colorless units. Takumi or Kagero would be really useful.
Jakob just doesn't cut it at this stage. I'm using Lissa, because she is literally my only healer who is above 3*. Banner units are basically mandatory for points, so the Red lords aren't going away anytime soon. It's why I use my own Marth.

I don't know the rates but, if you beat the tenth stratum you can earn 3 great badges.
Hope you didn't spend too much. I dropped 6 and got 5* Ogma - I know I shouldn't complain, but mrggrggr...
RnGesus will come through for you another time.

Whoa I just got four on my first try!
I think Robin would be good for the current meta but I prefer Corrin overall.
If you can get at least 4400 points it could ensure you stay in the top 5000 ranks.
I am just below 4500 points and that was on my first streak. Decided that was it for arena, I check my rank and I am still below 1000 in rank so I'm not dropping that much further any time soon.
What I can expect from future arena seasons, especially for people that play for free. I expect that Alfonse and Sharena will be permanent 'bonus' heroes for Arena. Otherwise, the people who play for free wouldn't have a chance of getting into the rankings.
Sorry. Didn't meant to come off super aggressive. Not my intention so apologies. That being said, I think a unit that can seal Def has a bit more use than a unit that can straight up destroyed armored units. Overall, I think this makes him more viable than going into like super niche territory. You are right in the analysis above though.
Lol I'll never be a top arena person. As long as I can make him fit a team that holds it's own during the story I can have a story team and an arena team.If that happens, just build your team around him. It's not like you have to max your arena score every attempt. It's fun.
I just really like my current group and would prefer to be able to slot soren in than hope my mish mash of viable units can make a working team with whatever he brings to the table.
Then again a week ago i was all high on my brave Lance donnel plus Olivia combo so what I think are fun teams changes as I get new units to play with.

What's a good tier list? I saw this one https://feheroes.wiki/Tier_List and lucina has been bumped to SS, don't understand why. Funny thing is that I miss only Azura to have an SS team lol
I'm still surprised that Anna isn't a bonus character. Since she's a free character and is the best 5 star other than Sharon.
To go with the Gacha, they should fill the rest of the bonuses with "free" characters like Nacien and the future Marx, Female Reflet, etc.
Gamewith is probably the most accurate one for the time being.
But you should go look at skills and party composition to come to your own conclusion.
How good a character is should be judged at their capabilities at Lv40 and what skills they have between 3-5 stars.

Self-healing, and life leech, debuffs, and effectiveness against dragons. I don't see why she wouldn't be.
If I could. I would try getting 5* Wrys, Hinata, Bartre and Jagen.
Just to see how good they are with Fury and Wrys has the AoE Heal to heal all of them and Rehabilitate (which I've been using with Lissa) is insanely good, it's the only staff that can full heal someone (on the condition they are almost dead).

SS in cute!
Yeah, it's weird and, it's the only reason I would have made Sharena 5* first and not Anna
If that had happened, they're still 4*.

I don't have this yet.
What is the general impressions of the game so far?

Probably mankind's greatest achievement.
It's fun, but expect a gatcha game.
I got 4518 last round and didn't make the top 1000. I have 4378 right now and I'm barely inside the top 5000. I'm pretty sure 4400 isn't enough for top 5000.
I'd love it if Sharena remained a permanent bonus hero, I'm planning to make her my next 5 stars.
Probably because of her buffed damage against dragons, as well as her high and well-rounded stats. Being able to kite knights and endlessly refill HP every few turns while kiting makes her pretty godly in such situations, too.
It's a shit-tier excuse of a Fire Emblem game. Not worth playing at all.
And no, I'm not being sarcastic. It's a terrible game and very disappointing for something that uses the FE IP. Nintendo can and should be doing way better than this.
Heh, that's 3/4s of my A team (Robin, Roy and Camilla). Just missing Peri (or Nowi as soon as I make her 5 star)

Super team brought me over 4100 but I still can't get 7 perfect runs. Had two characters die on me twice in the first three games. Had an earlier streak going and thought surrendering would take me back to menu without breaking the streak. Nope. I dunno what gave me that idea.

Tier lists definitely can't be taken as gospel. For example I see Perri consistently ranked pretty low and I think people are really sleeping on her. She is a lifesaver for some arena matches and later lunatic stages. She has great movement as a calvary unit, good resist for tanking a mage hit, good speed and ridiculous uptime on Glimmer. Towards the end of lunatic she cleaned more than Takumi for me when he began falling off.
I think lists will shift a lot more once people actually play around more with different units. Some just look good on paper like Leo, who was SS on the wiki, before people realized his skills and stats are kinda bad by themselves. He may shoot back up if paired with a dancer.
Also, I gotta ask one more time peeps. Camilla or F Corrin for promotion? I'm close to flipping a coin here.

It's fantastic, Fire Emblem perfectly distilled into the mobile format.
A superior game to Fates.

Do you have a good blue unit or green unit?
I submit to you every cutscene and line of dialogue in Fates.
My Abel is so good though he ORKO Lucina, Roy and other red sword units though he is hurt afterward

Both! Pulled Julia today and have Azura. #5*problems.
Basically the only holes I have left to fill are green physical and blue magic damage.
really doesn't hold a candle to the riveting tale of heroes, i agree

*a superior game to Revelation (and Gaiden)
Heroes has a story? I can't tell.
I counter with Conquest chapter 10.
Run the dragon, Camilla isn't worth running at the moment. She's too much of a liability.
If not, Anna or Sharon are good investments.

it's the self-insert fanfic you interact with occasionally, yes
either way calling a game explicitly designed to be a stripped down FE experience better than the most mechanically sound FE game is asinine.
Thank you! Having extra attack is awesome, but the speed is a bit of a bummer. Hmm.
Forcing myself to finish Conquest was one of the most painful gaming experiences in my life. I can handle wasting hours fighting the true arch nemesis, the RNG, but when my thanks for all that trouble is that torturous excuse of a narrative then it's a little like getting nails pounded into your dick after finishing a triathlon. Congratulations, you win! Now unzip your pants while I get the hammer.
Heroes is plain and simple fun. I will take that over Fates any day.
cool
it's still a fuller, better designed game than heroes. i mean i guess there's nothing wrong with valuing the more stripped down take on the mechanics of the series but at that point you'd probably wind up considering heroes superior to every other FE game
Nah I had more fun with FE7, 9, and 13.
Save. Julia is more useful than Camille imo. And you have Azura.
