wait, robin can kill the knight? I'll try that next, out of stamina for now as my strategy didn't work at all. Abel can't survive one hit from Ursula and my Camilla can't one-round the ninja, also apparently every fucking unit on this map has Wings of Mercy or some other teleport. I'll try running a healer for Robin and just hope he can kill everything himself.

What I'd do: run Sharena and Azura for 3 buffs, then promote up that +atk -res Nino once you have feathers. Nino with 3 buffs would basically just one shot everybody. And I guess keep using Takumi. I could probably beat anything with that team.
The +atk Nino might be good for eventual promotion. She's not supposed to be taking hits anyway, I think.
Robin seems good too. The -HP hurts but the +SPD might help both offensively and defensively, since it might keep him from getting doubled.
Azura is probably good too, since her attacks aren't harmed. Sure, she'll be singing most of the time, but she can hit pretty hard as a blue lance if you need to take out a red.

Hm ok. Would super buffed Nino take out Hector? That's my one concern with not having any Red unit. I think Sharena at full health can barely tank that first hit, but I've been using Olivia thus far for that.
Hm ok... yeh the 3*s there seem ok, but it'll take forever to get the feathers up again (I just promoted Sharena to 5* last week and have like 3K feathers).
the counterattack might be a problem for squishy Nino but with +16 attack she might just straight up one shot Hector. I guess just do the math first. But yeah obviously you'd want a strong red sword instead of Takumi.
edit: oh man picture Ryoma instead of Takumi on that team. +20 Nino. Shit I wish I had that.

Jeez, my Hector must have a bad boon/bane then. Maybe I need a better team around him.
EDIT: And what do you know, after tinkering around a bit, I won with Hector, Maria, Lyn, and Camilla. Letting the Knight warp right by Lyn was key. Camilla turned out to be the MVP by the end, Hector just tanked hits and dealt chip damage.
Since we are now under community, I figured I might as well mentioned this: a new trailer for Shadows of Valentia has just come out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7CKYVgVuO0
The more I play Heroes, the more I wish I'm playing a full-fledged FE game. Fortunately, we don't have to hold out for long
Man, I'm so ready to play SoV on day 1. I can still remember vividly the day I first played Gaiden via a Chinese bootleg NES cartridge. It was back in the 90s before emulation becomes a thing. We had access to only a limited number of games so we play any game we can get our hands on over and over again. I can't count how many winter and summer vacations I have spent playing Gaiden. It's still hard for me to believe that 25 years later, we can expect a remake of it in just a little more than 2 months (1 if you are Japanese)!
I hope they promote the shit out of SoV in Heroes, make a super awesome Alm/Celica banner, paralogues and events so that more people get interested in checking out SoV.

Btw, Azura doesn't have an Attack boost though... That's what Olivia has. Azura boosts speed. So I don't think Azura would help Nino all that much. I guess I'll go with my original team plus an eventual Nino for Green and possibly use Azura along with Olivia when I want to just kill everyone as Takumi xD

Well holy shit, just pulled, was planning on only pulling blue to try to get Effie (or always hoping for Azura), and of course the first set of pulls had no blue. Picked the lone green amongst colorless and reds and out pops 5* Nino (-SPD,+RES - sounds like it sucks but oh well, free 5*). I go back in a few times and get 1-2 blue orbs that of course give me 3* donnel and est, who i have gotten like 50 times now (not literally), and then the 4th blue single pull nets me a 5* Effie (another totally shit roll at -ATK, +SPD - fuck).
Still, don't have to waste the feathers on them now, and I actually really like Ursula's skillset, so I might 5* her. Or Tharja since she's -HP +DEF and I don't have any red mages at 5*. Thoughts?

Not as good because high speed is one of the things that makes Lucina good. She might still be viable depending on your team, though.
Huh? Sharena has rally attack and fortify defense. Azura has fortify resist. That's 3 buffs. Unless the wiki is wrong, I don't have an Azura obviously. Sharena's attack buff does not stack with Olivia's.

Approaching 200 orbs soon.
Come on new banner!
Come on new banner!
Wow this is a doozy. Robin can tank the ninja's and kill them in a bait and attack but then I get charged and can withstand the initial assault if I tank Ursala and the Red Horse with Subaki but he actually kills the red horse and the green knight slides in and takes him out. If I can hold off on Subaki killing the horse I think I can keep the Ninja at bay in time to get Robin healed up again.
I've tried a few strategies and I think what's ultimately going to do it for me is Robin with a Healer and then Subaki for his tank abilities on the Ninja's. The last spot I'm unsure if I want Nino to take care of the knight and horse mage or a dancer to give Robin and the healer more moves.
Also got an Erika yesterday Plan on leveling her and replacing Roy for a permanent spot on the team.

Plan on leveling her and replacing Roy for a permanent spot on the team.Think I'm going to promote my 4* Camilla for Ursula insane.. I got pretty close to beat it but Reinhardt wasn't able to finish Ursula in the last turn.
Also used a bit over 80 orbs and got Effie from the new banner, she'll definitely help too. Now back to saving orbs again, would like to pull whenever Hector gets featured.

Sorry, yeh you're right it's Res not SPD. Wait, Nino gets better attack from a fortify res with her weapon?
?If so, I also do have a 4* Eirika...

Sigh I have the other issue. I get to the last poison dagger user and he doubles up my Camillia and nobody can save her. Literally the last person everytime.
Guess I need to train a Calvary unit
I took down 4* Ursula with Hector, Julia, MRobin, and Olivia. Julia took down the green knight. Hector was able to eliminate the ninjas and Ursula, MRobin removed the cavalry unit. Olivia danced for all three, each on different turns to take down the respective enemies.
I'm at 226 Orbs right now. Part of me wants to try for Lucina, but knowing she'll be in the Choose Your Legends banner as well, along with Ike, Lyn and Roy, makes me want to wait. I just wish we'd get it already so I could stop hoarding. :/
~100 orbs on Princess banner -> No 5*, nothing notable at all.
~100 orbs on Nino / Effie banner -> No 5* but a bunch of Robins (+ATK, -RES seems best of the bunch). I guess the game just really wants me to use Robin(F) as my green mage.
On one hand, I'm glad I have the two accounts so I can do things like this but at the same time, leads to bad week of pulls like this :|

Ursula isn't even the threat to me on this map, the Ninjas and the knight are the real threats.
Julia is just too fragile once they get close to her but she's also my ace.

If they are clever they will add a mission on My Nintendo rewarding like 20 orbs if you buy the digital version with the associated NNID.
And maybe add some flyer with a code in the physical version.

Lol yeah I had to burn 200 flags to even get into 100k rank in best waifu army
Lucina swarm is countless.I've blown 40 orbs on today banner but Nino wasn't doing her best and I still only have 4* version of her.
I just cleared it with this strategy, except I had a 4* Felicia in place of the Peri. First few turns ran fine with Camilla taking out the north ninja and MRobin taking out the green knight.
I think Ursula actually hit Robin when she went in, instead of going after Felicia. I took her out with Camilla, but the south ninja and red cavalry guy was still there. I think I did something weird like making Robin go in to land a hit on the ninja, then danced Robin with Olivia to get Robin to safety (he was down to 1 hp), then moved Felicia in to both finish off the ninja and bodyblock the choke so that the red knight couldn't go in to hit Camilla. The red knight severely injured but did not kill Felicia on the enemy turn.
Next turn, I moved Felicia to the left to safety (she barely survived the turn), moved Olivia in to attack the red knight, and then had Robin hit the red knight again to finish him off.

I regret not training my 4*s. I've got almost nothing to deal with this special mission, can't even beat the hard version
is their a website which tells you which characters are better with what stat?
Just as an example, i have this:
+hp/-spd nowi
+atk/-res nowi
+atk/-hp ephraim
+res/-spd ephraim
I have no idea which one is better or not and which one to sacrifice to the other.
Thanks in advance

Imo, the +ATK Ephraim is much better. Ephraim is slow enough as is, and you don't want him to be doubled by even slower characters. Plus then he has fantastic attack with +ATK. With Nowi I'm assuming the +ATK is better as well. Typically +ATK/+SPD is best for boon, -HP is usually best for bane (unless it's a defensive character). Effie's good as -SPD though because of her Wary Fighter ability and her speed being so low anyways that it doesn't make a difference.
Search for fire emblem heroes IV calculators. There are a bunch out there, though some are better than others.
5 ★ Ursula is looking good. Death Blow effectively gives her 45 attack (mitigating her low bst), and she has Threaten Res on top of that. 32 Speed is pretty good too, since it she can start doubling a few threats with Hone Speed support. And while mounted units are niche, her weapon destroys enemy mounted units for free. Her stats are too low for serious arena runs, but she's a solid unit overall.
I think this site has limited coverage of different natures for each hero, but I really don't know how reliable they are: https://fireemblem.gamepress.gg/heroes
The basic principles are pretty simple, though. People generally like offensive stats - Life and Death is seen as a good skill. Almost every character benefits from +Atk or +Spd. Some characters have special features that change this up a bit. Effie doesn't benefit much at all from Spd because of Wary Fighter. Heroes with Brave weapons want +Atk at all costs. Of the defensive stats, HP is typically the least valued - if a character is going to take at least two hits in a match, 2 HP is never better than 1 Def and 1 Res. But some fragile characters are happy to take a minus to Def or Res if they never expect to survive two attacks from that type anyway.
For the two heroes you have, I think there's really no contest and you should go with the +Atk versions.
What's the rating range I should be looking for when it comes to arena runs?
Any team that can put you in the 4.5k range, basically. 170 BST average can do that (at the moment...)

I really don't have the characters to deal with ursula, the only 5-stars I have are Takumi, Shareena and Camilla...
Olivia works at 4*, the only thing she gets at 5*, is the silver sword I think. Keep her at 4* and just fuse future Olivia's to that. She barely attacks anyway.
Can't withstand the second ninja that comes along, of my Nino had 1 more HP I think I could do it, maybe get him a defensive buff.
I was thinking about 5* Kagero anyway with my 20k feathers. She useful for this for the other ninjas?
I tried turtle traffic with a healer, Olivia, Nino and Robin but they rush too fast.
