Since the old one's dead. Have fun folks

Isoprene the only unit I even remotely care about is Tiki. Though I don't mind F!Robin's new look either. At least now I've got an excuse to pull green after so long xD Also don't forget about paralogue orbs and the new orbs from July's quests! :D

Finished Hard/Lunatic of Clarisse's GHB so far. Haven't had time for Infernal yet, but I did get her to 5* and lv 36. Just need to think of a build now...

Edit: Finished Infernal after just two tries. Was significantly easier than Legion (not that his was THAT much harder...)

Now I'm wondering what the next Tempest Trials will be like. Or what theme it'll be *hopes for not another Awakening theme*

Isoprene

Bummed that Lissa lost, and I would've hopped on Team Elise but I have a 5* level 40 Priscilla so I might as well keep getting extra points for my flags to beef up my score since I missed the entire first day!

Also lots of interesting stuff coming up for the new update: https://fire-emblem-heroes.com/en/topics/index.html?id=detail-20170630

And I lucked out and got Summer F!Robin! Unfortunately she's +Def -Atk, so... that kinda sucks. It won't stop me from using her, though, since she'll be a bonus unit in Arena next time like usual and I really like her design. After experimenting with matchups, I decided to lean fully into the Fury aspect of her weapon and thank goodness for the bonus SP weekend event:

Haven't given her Swordbreaker yet because I only have one more spare Sully... but even with speed buffs I'm not sure if she'll be able to outspeed Ryoma (who's historically been my #1 enemy in Arena), so in retrospect it's probably worth putting that on her. Also gonna be running Genny since I'll need a healer to keep her topped off and functional, so this Arena's definitely gonna be interesting next week... gonna pretty much be a team of tanks in a world of hyperoffensive so we'll see how things go!

Isoprene yeah I'm pretty bummed as well. I was really surprised that Priscilla did so well. I didn't think she was as popular. D:

The new 1.5 update is looking reaaally good. Saving my orbs for the update (for potential orbs in new modes). I'm looking forward to it, and in anticipation have been building up my 5* Legion and 5* Clarisse. Yay for double SP :D

omg summer robin is soooo cute!! I'm glad her artwork is so nice this time+__+ not sure if I'd actually use her but at least she'll make it easier to sp train my lancers when I need to! 

also currently training up more green units for the next tempest trials or the chain battles update . . . ugh. there's so little green compared to the other colors............

Renne Araa HeroofEnelios

216th if you have him, train up Legion! He makes an excellent Brave Axe user and serves well as a frontline green unit.

I'm hoarding orbs to pull for Summer!Tiki. Then I'll have all the Tikis...

216th

HeroofEnelios I have him but his face and personality drive me up the wall >_<;; I have Hector, Soren and trained up rn and Minerva partially done, doing Cherche and Nino next! 0w0)b so I should be goooood hopefully! 

Papes

oh jeez i haven't been on fe:h in days,

time to start stockpiling orbs again

Isoprene

Next season's bonus heroes!:

The voting gauntlet wound up being pretty close... I was wondering for a while there if Priscilla was going to win out like she did with Lissa. The bonuses worked in a weird way for her where Priscilla would get a bonus and her points would shoot up just high enough to have a lead on people, but not high enough for the game to label her opponent as "weaker." I think this is the first gauntlet I've lost since I usually switched to the "obvious" winner at the end if I wasn't on that team from the start, but I only missed out on 500 feathers so it's not that big of a deal.

Also looks like the new Tempest heroes are Alm, Mae, Boey, and Faye! I have a +Atk -Def Mae which is pretty good, but I'd have to replace Linde and spend 20k feathers to 5* her. Without being +Spd she just can't really replace Linde all that well, especially since her tome is situational and I don't have any spare Blarblade+s lying around. I decided to roll for Faye since she has a niche that no one else I have does (preventing counters,) and somehow wound up with a Boey. Which is cool because he's +Atk, but not cool because he's -Spd. It's not like he's a super fast dude or anything, but the poor dude'll get doubled by everything and even with +Atk he's not gonna OHKO much.

If I had a spare Close Counter then that'd be fun because he's so tanky, but unfortunately he just can't replace Spring Camilla because she trades in some beef for being faster and a heavier hitter. Kinda interesting that I'm running into issues now because my core team of Ike/Linde/SCamilla is too good... every time I need to replace someone with a bonus unit I struggle because they're not good enough to take anyone else's place. With Arena it's not too big of a deal since my core is three people, but with Tempest I always bring Genny for healing so I don't get much wiggle room if I want a balanced party.

I think I'm just gonna end up training Mae and wishing I hadn't spent any orbs; it seems like Tempest is going to be a bit easier now anyway so I'm sure she'll be perfectly serviceable. If she ends up being a horrible burden somehow I can always just do what I did last time and throw her or Boey out to die on the first round and then switch to my "good" team afterward.

216th

Oh god tempest trials is back already . . . I don't think I've even recovered from the last one yet >_<;; 

And I only have an untrained Boey from the bonus list T_T but I will try my best!! 

Dolce

Same tho 216th :'D Of the bonus list, I only have Faye all trained up. But I personally found her pretty bad when I had to use her for the arena score bonus... so we'll see I guess >_<

Honestly for the gauntlet I sided with Elise aha;; Priscilla wasn't very useful to me in my Rekka no Ken playthrough and I didn't have either of them so the bonus score didn't matter to me.  Ugh her magic growth rates was just so... average. Side note to those who played FE7 as well, do you just call it "Fire Emblem" since that's the localized name, "Rekka no Ken", or "Blazing Sword"? :') Pretty obvious but I call it RnK haha.

Also, last thing I'll say for now, I tried to pull Summer Gaius on that banner and pulled a normal 3* Gaius lol ok game, I see how it is

HeroofEnelios

Looks like I'll be using my 5* Breath of Life Owltome Mae again for TT :D 

*still hoarding orbs to hopefully summon Melon!Tiki*

Isoprene don't underestimate the flexibility of Owl-tomes. I have Blarblade+ on my Mae, and to be honest... I've found more cases where Blarowl has been useful compared to Blade-tome. Plus I think the playstyle is interesting (and honestly not that situation, since the effect of Owl tome and spur effects will stack, along with hone buffs)

216th

HeroofEnelios oh that Mae build sounds interesting! I don't have her but I'll def try that if I get one +_+

Was rolling for a better IV Soren yesterday, got a roll with all greens and still no Soren T_T but I did get a +atk Julia and +atk 3* Nino so is all goooood I guess I will end up with too many green mages XD

Papes

WHAT. TEMPEST TRIALS IS BACK? WHAT???

ofc it returns when i have absolutely zero motivation to do anything besides play shadows if valentia....... OTL
