Well, considering that there are no more 5* Robin(M) at the moment, 3* isn't a bad pull. I upgraded mine all the way to 5* and he's paying out beautifully. Just a lot of feathers involved in the process haha.
well, I only have two armored characters, but the reward is mostly meaningless and it'd be a fun challenge. Not opposed to this kind of thing as long as the important rewards are not gated behind character requirements. The single armored ally requirement to finish normal quests is more of a problem IMO.
I think Robin is my next 5 star... maybe Nino.
You must be in high BST tiers. I still see Takumi all the time.

I still see them daily, myself. I faced two level 40 Takumis simultaneously in the arena just this morning, lol. Had to sacrifice my Tharja on them to keep the rest of my team alive.
Depending on their IVs, Nino is better than Robin in my opinion. She obliterates him in the head-to-head, and there aren't too many red mages in the meta right now (although that may change this week). She also has Hone Attack if you don't have an attack buffer in your party.
Edit: I also have my own Takumi, though. If you're facing a ton of archers, Robin could still be better.
I've seen the power of a buffed up Nino and I agree. Robin causes a lot of problems for anyone without a green, but you let Nino get a hit on you and it's goodnight.
Definitely going to pull for her on the upcoming banner.
Robin is kinda bad in all honesty. A good Nino or Merth would be my choices.

What type of damage do the dragon people hit with? Do you need def or res against them?

Are we getting another event for feathers? Feels like they are hard to come by.
Magic damage, so I think it's res.

Ty.
How do you find the team average rating, or did you do the math yourself?

Imho any mage without insane speed is average at best - someone like Julia who is still glass canon can only one shot few selected enemies.
Meanwhile Linde/Tharja/Nino will double attack killing almost everything that isn't opposing element.
But seriously I can't belive they took arena quests away.
I use a lvl. 40 Young Tiki, Kagero, Olivia and lvl. 20 Narsian :shrug
I see Hector all the time for some reason.
Yesssssssss
But I don't have Reinhardt to compliment her Cavalry buff. I do have Eldigan for other cavalry units.
That is my 2nd Klein, going to check his nature to see whether I should merge him.
Edit: This Klein is HP Up, Speed down. I'll just merge him.

Sort your characters by rating like with rarity in the filter.
Add up the ratings of each character in your team, divide it by 4.

Um... you only need one bonus character. Having two doesn't get you any more points than having one FYI.
Narcian is actually amazing at killing Lances thanks to Emerald Axe and Lance Breaker.
My main offense team is 4* Adult Tiki, 4* Kagero, and 4* Olivia, and non-infantry Blues were my biggest problem (other than multiple Takumi teams, fuck people who run those) until I realized what a baller Blue-killer Narcian is. I'm actually going to promote him eventually unless i pull a better Green at some point.
Gotta promote Kagero to 5* first though. At 4*, even with being +ATK -DEF and Hone ATK from Olivia, she can't quite 1-shot Lvl.40 Takumi unless it's -HP or DEF (and not + in the other).
I have to use Tiki to bait/counter those Takumis, but then she's left with like 8 HP.
Should be next week. It seems to be alternating between new character banner and battling ___ banner

Problem with that is that without any boosts on either side Julia can survive getting double shotted by Linde and Tharja and kill them when it's her turn
I feel people forget that while Julia is a 'glass cannon' in terms of physical damage she's the 2nd tankiest character in the game in terms of Res, only beat out by Felicia.

So GAF, assuming that skill trading works for all non-class-specific/character-specific skills/passives/supports.
What would be the best set up for Navarre? I know he's not the best red sword, but his art is too good, so I am OBLIGATED to use him.
I was thinking +Atk -Res would be best (although -anything that isn't Atk/Spd would be fine, I think).
Then, since he has a pretty low attack stat (even with Atk as his boon), Luna would be a good skill. He would proc it often with Desperation + Killing Edge.
I was wondering between Death Blow, Defiant Attack, and Life and Death for his A skill. I like Life and Death the most, but I'm not exactly sure how optimal that would be.
Desperation would probably be the best B skill, although Vantage could be useful, as well.
And the best C skill would probably be either Threaten Atk/Spd/Def.
Hm. In any case, I just want my perfect Scarlet Swordsman.

How bad is a -spd nino?
Better than nothing, worse than pretty much any other nature you could've gotten.

Boo. Rolled a 5* -hp/+atk tharja, 4* Nino, and 2 3* Olivia and plan to use Sharena as the fourth on an alternate account. Going to hoard orbs for the next banner.
I like Olwen but oh man, I hope she doesn't have attack down because her attack is low.
I checked tier lists and she has 148 rating at level 40, just one point less than Klein.
I could definitely make her better with skill inheritance using glacies or iceberg with vantage.
Plus her Reposition skill is good for slow moving units.
Portrait shot:
While on the other hand, I am leveling up Eldigan and he is going to be insanely strong thanks to Fury. According to tier lists he will have 182 rating, that's 4 points higher than Seliph.

Yes, got Eldigan and Reinhardt. Bring on the next arena bonuses.
I'm playing Path of Radiance to show someone all the characters that may come along for the ride when Ike eventually hits.
Man, what a bunch of thickies the Greil Mercs are sometimes.
Oh damn it. My Olwen is attack down, Res up.
That explains why she can barely kill anything.
What a pain...
Edit: But my Eldigan will have Def Up, Res down which gives 40 Def at level 40.
He will be tankier than Seliph which is nuts.
Ward Cavalry from Olwen would boost it further by +4 when he is in combat.

It seems Reinhardt is more aggressive and Olwen leaning towards more supportive.. I don't know where does 148 total come from, but feheroes.wiki has her at 154.
That was what I counted so it could be a mistake.
https://fireemblem.gamepress.gg/hero/olwen
Has her rating listed at 149.
Edit: I may have miscounted Eldigan as well, they list him at 181. Still very high.
Yes.
It's apparently a problem with iOS phones when they have low storage space remaining.
I don't know the whole details, I don't own an iPhone.
I have a +HP/-Spd one and I'm honestly considering rolling just for green on her banner. This is probably literally the worst nature for her. I still hate natures.
WOOT! Finally got my first perfect run! I almost got whaled on the final match, too. My heart sunk when i realized that I was up against Takumi +1, Young Tiki +2, Hector and Cordelia. I'm not ashamed to admit that my hands were sweating a bit as I closed it out.
Couldn't quite crack 4500 though due to Kagero and Cecelia having low stats

Which is not so important against AI because you can kill her with other team members and since she doesn't one shot things she usually ends in position where she is vulnerable to counter attack.

Translated interview with the developers about the game:
https://kantopia.wordpress.com/2017...-interview-nintendo-dream-vol-276-translated/
Main points...
-Content is already planned out through the end of the year. (The first batch of main story chapters is "Season One".)
-Paralogues every other week or so.
-More original characters are coming.
-Tokyo Mirage Sessions characters are not being considered for inclusion at this time.
-They want to include character from across the entire series initially, instead of focusing on certain games.
-Poll Results: Lyn is popular across the board, Ike is more popular in the West, while Lucina is more popular in Japan.
-Poll Surprises: Lyn's overall popularity, Awakening Tiki over original Tiki, Marth's "low" placement, Donnel's rank, which they still don't understand.
-Outside events with things like Cipher are being considered, but it seems no definite plans at the moment.

Yea I am hoarding for the next banner. Then I am going to go in, and get a bunch of 3*. I'd be ok with getting a 5*effie as well though.
