Have to wait two days just for the March quests. I need to pass the time while waiting for the Switch this week.
My opinion would be the second one if I had to choose.
My Nino is Spd up, Def down and her speed is 39. Throw in Hone Speed and it makes sure that she can attack twice almost every enemy.
Attack up, speed down with buffs may at least let you one shot Takumi with Res up or health up but then you wouldn't be able to take out Lucina in one round because she is fast.

You can always just burn 1 stamina (which shouldn't be the end of the world) at the First Stratum to get all the Stratums to refresh their levels and color composition though.

This whole nature thing is kind of annoying tbh. Its not like pokemon where you can breed at a fast rate and the chances of getting the right one are terribly low.
Yes Im bitter because I happen to have a - atk + def Robin.

ends in about 5 hours I think.
Finally managed to pull Juila, the only character I was missing from the incest banner. So having spent all of the day's stamina leveling her up to 25, I just went into the arena to see how the "focus" team would fare
Julia turned out to be the MVP in most fights; even managing to out-level the rest after a few rounds. But the team as a whole wasn't very viable. Seliph seemed to be useless fodder in most fights.

Mine is +DEF -SPD and I need to flee from other Robins since they ORKO me, at least Takumi tickles him I guess
PS: I only have 2 defense points, a 260 and a 265 and I still have no idea What The points means
It's similar to offense. The points you receive depends on your team rating average.
If it's too low, your defense team fights lower rated enemies and if they win they might not get 250+ points for winning.

Haha same here. Other Robins outclass me and I have to use other units to kill him. At least ours take hits better I guess?
It might be by how much your team won, whether it be by how many units survived or what kind of units they are and how much hp they had left. Not 100 percent sure though.
That's a good idea. I'll switch in Kagero since she's got some great options for countering all those reds in the Arena.
I lucked out on getting Seliph and the Twins during the week they were released, but it took a lot of pulls to get Julia (like over a hundred or so paid+free orbs). I was focusing solely on green to get either Julia or Hector, but kept getting a 3* Bartre every 20 orbs. I was about to give up, but on the last 5 orb pull, I finally got her.
Finally pulled off a flawless run and man that just feel great. Still falls a little bit short of 4500 of course but that's ok. Every member of the team performed respectably and with each passing day I'm loving my team more and more
Even Catria at a humble 4* handled Lucinas, Tikis and Ryomas really well, giving the team the much needed breathing space in the heat of battle.
And the reason why I didn't upgrade my Catria to 5* was of course the fact that I was waiting for a competent green (or to a lesser extent, blue) mage, for which I have spent 80 or so orbs to no avail. To rub more salt into the wound, FemRobin turned out to be a crushing disappointment. So I said, fuck it, let's dump my last 13 orbs (I've cleared all the story missions at all difficulties) before Julia vanquishes from the banner. Entered summon screen and saw 3 green stones, alright, looks promising. Opened the first, Gunter, ok, probably my 4th Gunter already, but hey, Armored Blow 3 might be helpful in the upcoming skill inheritance, right? Moved on to open the second, Arthur, uh, started to have a bad feeling about this. Had to muster all my remaining courage to open the 3rd and last stone, and it's...
Almost burst into tears when I saw this cutie. Although she came out as a 3*, although she's +Atk -Def, not optimal and will be squishy as fuck, although my 3.75% or so increased 5* pull rate will go into the drain with the banner, I don't fucking care anymore because the RNGesus has finally heard my plead! Dumped 22K feather in Nino and had been leveling the shit out of her with 2 Olivias like there's no tomorrow
Now thinking about what my defense team should be. Takumi and Nowi are pretty much given, for their full range counter. What should the rest be? I have a 5* Iilina, though she is +Res -Def so she's not that much bulkier than my -Def Nino. So, Marth + Nino? Lilina + Nino? I had no problem racking up a few 260+ denfense wins for the past few seasons but with people improving every day, I don't know how long that peace of mind will last.

as much RNG as there is in this game, they seem to be wanting to keep it out of the actual gameplay.
As much as I like the thrill of the evasion mechanism in the mainline FE games, in this game however, it will only ruin perfect runs and induce rage like you have never seen before. Imagine if you miss a 98% attack and lost a unit as a result in your 7th match in a streak; it's not like reset is a thing in this game, remember? So no, please no.
They must be new units but I havent heard of anything
This get me every...single...time. "Oh my sword master will just dodge...fuck wrong game"

No datamine this time?
Thanks!
Hopefully you're right. I've been waiting for Tellius characters since launch.

I think something like that would have been more hyped up. TBH, I don't know what to expect for tomorrows banner.
Best case scenario is probably Hector.
Use whatever orbs you have and only open red. You might not have this chance again for a while.
Yeah I used up all my orbs already.
There is... another option.
Only notable from the twin banner I've gotten was Julia, but holy smokes she's no joke.
Grinding out a few B Teams somewhere in the mid 20's now. Have 2 40's and just getting nowhere on Lunatic 9-X, Gotta find my right balance. Stoked for the next set of quests/banner/pulls.

Julia is a glass nuke.
She can't take any hit. But she'll nuke people out to oblivion.
Julia and robin are my nuclear duo. Seliph and eirika just make sure the nukes done get defused.
Ok guys, looking for some roster advice. I'm struggling to get a flawless run despite many attempts.
Here's what I've got to work with.
Kagera 5*
Cecilia 5*
Lucina 5*
Young Tiki 5*
Erika 5*
Ephraim 5*
Hinoka 5*
Abel 5*
Notable 4 stars that I could upgrade...
F Corrin
Olivia
Marth
Tharja
Cordelia
Nino
Gordin
I've been running Lucina, Ephraim, Cecilia, and Kagera. It feels a little like Ephraim could be the weak link or that I'm just not tanky enough. I'm consistently ending up in the 4000 to 4200 range, and can't quite get over the hump.
Any pointers that can get me closer to a flawless run would be hugely appreciated.

New banners for FE Heroes datamined.
Looks like anti-Ursula banner for the Ursula battle, and Eltshan/Raquesis get their own paralogue.

First pull!
OH SHIT
NEW SHIT
Kagero, Lucina, Ephraim, and Cecilia at level 40 should be a winning combination by itself. You've got magic damage/colorless advantage in Cecilia, you've got a tank in Ephraim, you've got the best sword user in the game in Lucina, and you've got the infantry slayer colorless in Kagero.
If you want to tinker and go for something more complicated you could upgrade Nino and FemCorrin to 5* and then run with something like
Eirika, Nino, Corrin, and Kagero
Nino thrives on buffs and both Eirika and Corrin can provide those. Your Nino in this lineup would be absolutely fucking devastating. You've got magic damage, range, a dragon tank in Corrin, and a strong red in Eirika.
