Board 8 > Fire Emblem Heroes Discussion Topic Part 27: Still hoping for Resplendent Lloyd.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Not in the game itself, as yeah they probably don't want you easily knowing exactly how much you spent. I checked my purchase history in Google Play.

When you promote a unit they lose all their merges, so yeah the flaw would return if you're 5*ing a merged 4*.

On that subject, merging up 4*s isn't recommended, that's more of a 2017-2018 habit due to feathers being much harder to come by.

---

They are sure making us wait for the damn channel

---

For real. Like I get wanting Book 4 to just "sit" with us for a bit (Even if it ended a bit anti-climatically because IS really hates permanent consequences from actions) but geez. This VG sure isn't holding my attention.

---

They really need to spice VG's up. It's been stale for far too long, yet they don't see it that way. Give us DF based on the winner and throw in some Trait Fruit

---

wow i got Arthur today while trying for Jaffar which i think was the last 4* unit i didn't have? so everyone else i don't have in my Catalog is 5* exclusive and Resplendents i think?

...how about some demotions eh? what am i supposed to do with all this useless fodder piling up? i swear it seems like there's only like 10 useful fodder units from that pool

I bet the channel will be disappointing with all its "hype"

Yeah. Doesn't help that IS has been stingy with fodder these days. So many grail units with nothing interesting to offer us. The next grail unit will probably be a Winter armor with Wary Fighter or something... At least someone like Seteth managed to avoid getting the shaft.

Yeah they more they drag it out, the higher everyone's expectations will be. If it was just refines and the usual mentioned right away, no one would be too anxious. But now? They're going to really disappoint if they aren't doing something major. Though they'll probably introduce Book 5.

Maybe we'll get lucky and get some juicy QoL.

---

I don't care for another poorly designed mode, just up the HM cap because it hasn't been done in forever

---

FEH channel tomorrow then.

---

That's awful

---

Is this the channel for finding out what the christmas units are? This is your chance to draw me back in FEH! Don't blow it!

---

No, the Christmas units should be on the following banner about two weeks from now

---

I think it's more of a Book 5 Feh Channel, but they could slip in Christmas units detail depending on when they're coming out.

Predicting 190 BST armor that's idiotically broken.

That's not much of a stretch!

I'll predict Echoes for the New Heroes banner. There's not much left from the game and they may want to round it out with the book 5 unit

---

honestly if orb prices were a little lower i would have probably spent a lot more

as it is now, every time i get tempted i'm just reminded how insane the prices are and i can't even rationalize it

Yeah, the pricing is crazy. In certain regions, the prices got even more crazy! Don't recall where and why at the moment though.

I try to only buy packs. Forma packs are my personal favorite because you get a unit tailor made to your design, along with 60 orbs. So even if those orbs didn't pay out, you have a unit you wanted with the skills you want on them.

Anyway, maintenance begins at 7:10 pm EST today and will likely last until reset. If you had any ingame plans, keep that in mind.

FEH Channel better damn well show up tonight.

ooh but also meh for the new characters. but i looked at who's not in from that game and honestly not that big a pool

WOW the SUMMONING CHANGES

Book 5 seems to be very Steampunk.

We of course have events to celebrate the new book.

Log in bonus, up to 1000 Aether stones(lol) and a free Book 5 castle design. Also new structures that don't do anything but look neat.

Reginn will, of course be our freebie hero. She looked waaaaay to heroic to be an antagonist, even if she started fighting Alfonse at first. And she's Astra, so people finally have a guaranteed free Astra unit

New Heroes form Scared Stones.

Duessel
Caellach
Selena
Knoll
Natasha

Some fan favorites here.
Knoll is obtainable via the Book 5 begins quest
Caellach is a GHB unit.

Neither with very good fodder.

Info update!

Changes to Aether Raids: Oh boy...

Rule Change - Base Lift is increasing from 80 to 100.... and so is what you lose in defense battles.
And Tier 28

Each season will always have a bonus Mythic for offense and defense.

Apparently using a Light/Astra hero will give you full lift even if you lost a unit. Losing two units counts as if one fell. So basically, a free death?

Losing a defense match with a mythic will have you lose 20 less points than normal. And if your team defeats one hero, it counts as defeating two in terms of scoring.

And... we're getting a new Mythic Effect(In addition to what we already have).
If a new mythic hero is added during the proper season, you'll gain an additional slot to add a unit to your team. This slot can only be used for that season's mythic or legendary hero. Or a hero with the right blessing. No change to the lift value from that extra hero.

Summoning changes

You'll be able to see your pity rate for 5*s on the summoning screen.

Okay, this is a big one. Pitybreakers no longer reset you... entirely. Non focus 5*s will only drop your rate by 2%(1% for the focus and 1% for the non focus chances). You can now cry a little less when [Insert 5* that has no business being a 5*] pops up when you're aiming for something good.

Winter Heroes teased. And it has a spark! That you can use three times! A seasonal banner getting a spark is a new one, hopefully we see more of this in the future.

And that's about it. No mention of the refines, but we'll find out about those soon enough.


---

I'm not looking forward to dealing with an extra defense unit in Aether Raids. The new OC seems pretty busted with Canto on that weapon. Her special is nice, but Galeforce would be pretty silly on her.

Summoning changes are pretty good, and I'm hoping the special heroes spark continues. Guaranteed Duo/Harmonic

---

Canto being in the game is interesting. Also terrifying. People are absolutely going to put Galeforce on her.


---

you know more is coming after they keyworded that also.

anyway, I'm glad she is free. I don't have much interest in the rest of the banner

---

I know whenever I see a FEH channel that long that half of it's gonna be about Aether Raids stuff that I don't care about at all lol

Sacred Stones banner isn't super exciting so I'll probably save up for the Christmas banner. Free Knoll is nice, though I'd be surprised if he isn't completely unremarkable. Hoping that a Sacred Stones banner means that the upcoming resplendent hero might be Ephraim, fingers crossed.

Kinda hoping we get expanded barracks and an increase in the HM cap soonish. And mass demotes of course, but that's unlikely to happen in my lifetime.

---

As expected, it was disappointing, though I expected the channel to hit later tonight. I like the setting of Book V, but I hate asymmetry and Reginn's hair bugs me. 1000 aether stones is nice, not sure how to feel about the new AR changes, but it feels like defense is going to get even harder

I really could have used the new summoning changes for Duo Lyn >_____>

---

Also expecting TMS to make a return because things like mecha pegasus actually somewhat fits thematically now.

---

pls no

I know this is long past the point of being surprising, but it is endlessly frustrating how IS just craps out useless F2P unit after useless F2P unit. Knoll, Caellach, and Natasha are all basically completely worthless as units and as fodder.

As long as they add my boy Touma, I'm fine with this.

---

This update really pisses me off. Sometimes, I wonder why I'm still playing this piece of shit

---

There's a reason I love fire emblem enough to be a regular in this topic for over a year, but can't stomach downloading the game again

---

I don't like the extra slot in Aether Raids, but the other stuff seems fine. You'll drive yourself crazy trying to stay on top of pvp modes without shelling out money.

The new OC is fun to use, and I like the book 5 theme. Knoll, Caellach, and Natasha are pretty underwhelming, but it's nice that they are easily accessible. I just wish they had some worthwhile fodder. It's past time that we get 4* QR3

---

I think it's pretty hilarious story wise when hearing something for the first time, and all the characters go "Oh yeah, that place!" as if it's common knowledge.

Well at least the audience is familiar with the place thanks to Infinity War

Just saw this on Reddit.

https://old.reddit.com/r/FireEmblemHeroes/comments/k8zmo0/youre_no_longer_allowed_to_summon_if_inapp/

Whoa, what the fuck? You can't summon if IAP are disabled on your system? Hopefully it's a bug and not something deliberate, because that's a pretty terrible move.

Nintendo has not been making themselves look good lately.

---

That sounds like a bug to me. It would previously display that message on the shop page, and they may have broke the summoning page when they implemented the new changes to it.

---

Yeah I really hope it's a glitch, otherwise holy shit that's scummy as fuck. Unfortunately Nintendo has been doing a lot of stupid stuff lately so I can't even be certain.

RIP Knoll. I was never into him but I know it can't be feeling good for his fans.

At least Caellach can reach the 180 bin...

Calendar is here

Looking at the skill banners

Heroes with Chill Skills possibilities

Tibarn
Eyvel
Laegjarn
Midori
Ranulf
Tsubasa
Ylgr
Brave Claude*
Kliff
Fallen Celica
Jill
Flying Olivia
Byleth
Horse Chrom
Brave Alm
Sue
Hubert
Ophelia

That's... a lot, and that's excluding seasonals. Brave Claude very likely as I think they'll save him for a Hero Fest. They're probably not going to put Horse Chrom on there since he'll likely be on the upcoming New Power banner. If he isn't though, then 99% chance he'll be on here.

Honestly my only guess is that Tsubasa is going to be on this banner.

Heroes with Luna possibilities

Velouria
Horse Chrom*
Fallen Ike*
Mia
Dieck
Edelgard
Ike*
Brave Ike*
Ced
Lucina*
Fallen Celica
Mareeta
lolCatria
lolFederick
Perceval
Fallen Mareeta
Petra
Sirius
Zelgius

Asterisks are more known for Aether than Luna, additionally Lucina and Chrom are very unlikely to be on here. I could see Fallen Ike being here for bait. Dieck is probably too new to get another banner....

My guess... one of the Mareetas, Perceval, Edelgard

Heroes with Draconic Aura possibilities

Brave Lyn
lolAres
Karla
Brave Alm
Kjelle
Alm
Kana
Quan
Adrift Corrin
TIbarn
Male and Female Byleth*
lolFemaleCorrin
Keaton
Catherine
Brave Ephriam
lolCamilla

Jeez, they really not making these skill banners easy to predict. Bylethes are better known for Ruptured Sky.

All I know is that the banner I'm looking at is going to arrive on Christmas Day, unless Christmas 2020 banner ends up being amazing.

---

Oh and apparently the summoning thing IS a glitch.

Torches put away... for now.

---

Feels silly to have Luna and DA banners when they're so accessible. Would much rather have Lull and Solo banners

What stuck out to me on the calendar:

• Frontline Failanx is even longer this time around. Definitely curious what changes they've made to it
• PoL is happening three times within a short span of time. Not looking forward to that
• The Winter and NY revival banners are seeing simultaneous releases when they have been trying to space those apart

Why isn't ID dead yet

---

Each Pawns of Loki event is now three times shorter and one needs to get slightly less than 3 times fewer points to get the max cumulative reward. 60k is two battles a day. One battle a day if you are good. So more or less it is just spreading out the event more.
---

Nobody is summoning on Luna, Chill, and DA banners for those skills. They'll put a few busted units on those banners that just happen to have those skills. Like Jill, Mareeta, Tibarn, Tsubasa. My orbs are safe until Christmas at least.

Splitting up Pawns of Loki is nice. I actually enjoyed it last time if I stuck to intermediate

---

The most interesting thing to me is that it looks like there are two special banners this month (Christmas and New Year's) and then also still a New Heroes banner in early January. Wonder if there will be a third special banner in mid January too.

This is normal for December to January. In 2019, there was an extra January Special Heroes banner (Hot Springs). 2018 and 2020 just had regular banners between New Years and Valentines.

New topic is up.

nice nice

So Delthea is getting the next resplendent. It's our first dkklfar(Nightmare Fairy) outfit, and I think she looks absolutely adorable.

Combatwise she's around the level of Linde, outdated. But still!

---

i briefly looked into this and it looks like you can't access a backlog for resplendents? so if i don't have feh pass during the initial distribution, i can't ever get it?

ok well i hope they never make resplendents of characters i like then >_>

You can purchase resplendents you missed, you just need to be currently subscribed to the Feh pass to get them.

For reasons.(Costs $5 each iirc)
