It's nice to Pent and Louise break out of alt prison. Her art doesn't look good to me, but I like Pent.

---

Finally!!!! Pent not being blue is a pretty weird decision, but maybe it's for the better so he doesn't color share. I also don't like Louise's art, the chibying thing really does not end well. Erk is a pretty great demote

I am so screwed though. I had to buy an orb pack and the starter pack on the MH banner and used up most of the orbs, so I don't have nearly enough to spark. I did get nice pulls, but didn't get a Freyja that I could feed to Raven. Will have to be patient on it

---

How many orbs on average does it take to +10 the 4* on their debut banner?

...Not that I have anywhere enough to even think about it(Also lol RED). Gives me another unit to look forward to(As I pull yet another Henry).

---

goddaaaaamn it i literally want everyone on the banner nooooooooooooooooooooo my orbs

i saw the posts about Erk, Louise and Pent who i would have been hype for but no mention of Farina who i would have been most hype for so i got a moment of genuine surprise and hype watching the vid

I'm actually surprised they waited until now to tie a skill to DF's. I don't like it at all

This VG is full of memes. All three males survived R1 and Wrys killed not one, but TWO 5* female healers. He has a real shot of winning. The finalists' names are pretty similar, too. There are many players that actually went out of their way to make a 1*+10 Wrys, it's hilarious

Including the 4 tickets we get, about 390 Orbs for a 50% chance to reach +10. 475 Orbs for a 75% chance. I assume you won't use the Spark on a 4* Focus unit.

As an aside, Red, Blue and Colourless units all cost about the same to pull these days. Green is still the cheapest, though.
---

Wonder if green will forever remain the cheapest

There were four males in this. And I'd say Wrys/Rhys are more than "pretty similar", I pronounce them exactly the same.

---

Well, Brady is forgettable lol

---

I'm glad that Morgan that pity-broke me can finally stop being a joke. He wins this round of refines @Dark_Young_Link

I really thought I still had my 5* Marisa, but it looks like she was the one I foddered to Nowi for IP. She seems fun to use now though, but does need some investment to be really good

Wait, Sonia has a green tome's animation but is green? She also doesn't come with a PRF. IS just has to fuck up somewhere

---

Happy for Morgan.

....Utterly confused for Sonia because I thought she'd get a prf. Ironically she'd make good use of Pact Blooms at least with her statline(If if only I could pull a nice Kiria or Guinivere to give her Atk/Res Lull...

Erk gets a Spd Superboon which is nice. Puts him at 43 speed unmerged, which is way more than I was expecting for him.

Thinking about what they'd do for the BB banner next year, I'm not sure how they'd go about it. Sain is pretty much guaranteed, and Kent will likely tag along, but there is also Marcus, and I don't think they've ever done a banner with three cav units. Out of what I remember, the unreleased units left are Will, Guy, Oswin, Isadora, and Dart. There aren't much in terms of banner sellers, unfortunately

They're really holding off on Marcus and Nergal, moreso than any other game it seems

---

Off the top of my head I remember the Lif banner being three cavs, and by Lif banner I mean "Actually, Reinhardt alt is the star".

As for playable FE7 characters not in yet(That you didn't already mention)

Wallace
Lowen
Geitz
Harken
Vaida
Renault
Athos

Athos may be a mythic one day. Kent and Sain are probably the most popular out of the playable cast still not in yet. While I like Vaida, GHB flying lance...


---

I didn't mention Athos because I really hope he gets the Mythic status, and Vaida is likely going to be GHB. My bad for forgetting Harken and Renault, but who cares about the rest lol

I think it took me 474 so that 75% chance was almost exactly on the dot.



Can't spare much in the ways of fodder at the moment. Plans are Swift Sparrow 3, Spd/Res Lull(Lys on the next FB revival can give him that), and C skill is "Whatever" as always.

Along the way...

4* Ryoma
5* Leila
4* Fallen Celica
5* Kliff
5* Kjelle
5* Adrift Camilla
4* Leo
4* Amelia
5* Nah
5* Lethe
4* Lucina

and I picked Pent as the spark.

Fortunately most of the 5*s came with little to no pity to break. I'm happy with Leila and Kliff. I sacced Nah well over a year ago to give Nino BD. Glad I didn't wait for a spare since Lulls are a thing now, so Nah gets to chill in my barracks this time.

I.. legit don't remember what I wanted Armor March for, just that I was waiting for one to give and couldn't because it was either on a character I wanted to keep(Like Halloween Henry, Valentines Lyn, or Winter Nino)... or I couldn't justify passing up their better fodder(Special Fighter for Brave Eprhaim.


---

How long ago were you looking for Armor March? Since Armor March is a seal now, maybe you didn't need the skill anymore.
---

2018ish I think? There's a chance I wanted it for Sheena of all units, if that's any indication of how long I've been waiting.


---

Congrats! I'll probably build mine in a year or so whenever I get enough copies. Leila is a pretty nice pull on a FE7 banner

I free pulled Pent so I'm good to go on this one.

---

I"ll give him Lull Spd/Res later. Glimmer is probably better than Moonbow with his passable attack, but grinding for the Rally+ was annoying enough for today.

Congrats! What luck. It will probably take me all the way to the spark to get him. Having double orb promos this month is good timing

---

Erk is looking good. Will you ally support him with Serra?

Good luck with that. Dagr too many orbs to get so I needed it

---

Thank you, and absolutely. I've always loved their dynamic.

---

Matthew/Serra and Erk/Serra is great. That duo will never happen, but I'd love either

---

Too bad there isn't much Erk and Serra interaction in the FB

All the new art is off. Pent is the only one who looks closest to the original. Erk looks like he is two years older here? As for Sonia, I prefer her original face, and I think her full body art makes her look a little chunky

---

Did you want her because you like her?

I think the artist wanted to go for a thicc mom look.

---

i'm all for sonia's artwork

holy shit i meant to merge and didn't realize i was on the inherit skill screen until the warning popped telling me to merge

the skill screen after would have also told me but where is my mind

barreldragon88 posted...

Did you want her because you like her?

Aether Raids, Pathfinder utility, and extra Hels or Edelgards are fine. I like her well enough and she fills a role I didn't have as a fast green galeforcer. I don't care at all about getting Nott when she is inevitably released

---

Yeah I"m thankful they give that warning since I would have made that mistake once or twice.

---

Got +HP/-Res Pent on my 13th summon and -Atk Asbel on the way there. I think I want to keep going for another Pent to feed to NY!Alfonse, but going to see what the Bridal banner has in store first

I haven't played Genealogy or Thracia, but Asbel has one of my favorite art in this game. I really like the conjuring of wind in his hand and wish these neat touches were more commonplace. Maybe I can pair Sumia with him now that Sumia can warp all over the place and he will easily fall below 80% with Fury4

---

Isn't Alfonse ready to go out of the box? What do you need from Pent?

I could actually make good use of a spare Times Pulse now that I have Sara. I will have to think about that

---

I run Alf on my AR-D teams and he is usually fine out-of-the-box because I have double Nils to instantly charge OtF. However, when I need to run Triandra or Mira (when I get her) as the bonus, he would be off one charge and using QP will lessen his ability to tank. I do have Lif I could feed to him, but that would be a huge waste of DC

Alf could also use ARD-Def/Res from Kjelle to be even tankier

---

In celebration of Sonia getting in I present... The Four Fangs!



---

Jaffar only at +5? You've been slacking, DYL!

---

Imagine having Infantry Fl-

Oh... I actually do have enough? LOL
(I know you're just joking around. I legit thought I had like 200 of them)


---

Schedule is here

nice

how long did the whole process take?

i've been trying to think of theme teams myself but i couldn't think of any i would have interest in completing the set for besides the Pent & Louise fam

said before but Lloyd art is the definitive 'look how they massacred my boy' case in this game

=/

Lloyd and Jaffar desperately need Resplendent's. Ursula can also use one. Her refine still irritates me. It was so lazy and could have been so much better

I guess they didn't want to continue spoiling the new story banner with the BHB. The next story banner definitely won't be 3H-themed

---

Oh it's been so long, I've forgotten how long it took. All I truly remember is that Jaffar was completed during the first Revival banner, needed 5 copies. Linus has the most recent fodder since before he was running LnD 3/Despo/his base C skill. I'd love to get my hands on a Igrene to give him LnD 4. Combined with his weapon and seal, that'd be a FUN meme.

80 Atk, 57 Spd, with 19 Def and 6 Res. Unbuffed mind you.

I'm holding out on a Resplendent for Lloyd.

---

Did we have a Radiant Dawn banner last year? I know we had a PoR banner, but I don't recall one for RD. Feels like it's been forever since the last one

---

No, since Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn share a banner slot. The last RD banner was Caineghis's banner in April 2019.
---

Right, I remember the last RD banner had beast units. Why do PoR and RD get shared banner spot while Genealogy and Thracia don't O___o

---

PoR and RD have a very large overlap in cast. FE4 and FE5 only share a few characters.
---

Even with the large overlap, the cast is big enough to warrant two banners a year. 3H gets two a year and I'm sure it has a large cast, but it gets the exception because it's "new and exciting"

---

Three Houses gets special treatment because it's absurdly popular and brings in the most money.
