Elemental Hero Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) It's not DST that's messed up*--it's the way they publish the event schedules. The west coast gets their reset at 11 PM now, and for some stupid reason the event schedule's times are based on that region. So the majority of the playerbase is told the wrong date so that a few people who stay up late won't sometimes think they have to wait an extra hour if they don't check the game. *in this very specific context Edited November 19, 2018 by Destiny Hero Quote Link to comment
Stephen 776 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Yeah, I'd honestly wish they just added a day to each event with some footnote saying 'note that each event actually starts at 11pm PDT the day before' or something. Quote Link to comment
Tyranogre Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Who should I spend my Grails on: Walhart or Black Knight? Quote Link to comment
Surge135 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I'm going with Black Knight, personally. Quote Link to comment
Elemental Hero Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 My interest in the arena modes has declined exponentially. I didn't touch either until the final hour this week. Standard arena, unless I have some amazing bonus units, I couldn't care less about. The bonus kills update was the final nail. It's a luck-based grind. It has no redeeming qualities. There is nothing fun about this. I'm dropping to tier 17 and I don't even care. Arena Assault just gets worse over time. I did the first battle with a random team, lost the second, and that's it for me this week. Again, can't give a fuck. Aether Raids might be a decent replacement once IS goes full Yugioh and outright bans Reinhardt and Veronica. Because that's all this mode is. It's the Reinhardt and Veronica mode. When your entire game revolves around just 2 of your 320 characters, one being a launch unit, you've got a problem you're not gonna solve through skillcreep. Quote Link to comment
Alice Phantasma Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) They won't ban them. They'll try to nerf but I doubt they'll ever ban them. I'm expecting eventually a whole horse army once people unlock the 5th and 6th characters. BTW Reinhardt isn't even that bad, he's hilariously easy to bait with a green counter unit. Lyn and veronica though.. Edited November 20, 2018 by Alice Phantasma Quote Link to comment

Lyn and veronica though.. Exempting the first month, this game's entire history has been dominated by and built around Reinhardt, and then also Brave Lyn, and now mainly Veronica. Everything gravitates around just a couple of stupid design mistakes the developers made and refuse to ever directly address. With one compromise after another, IS has failed again and again to make a truly enjoyable game mode out of an otherwise fantastically designed game. Hyperoffensive ranged cavalry units are a cancer, but there's no other way to build that archetype, because there is almost no such thing as a reliable defensive ranged unit, because of dragonbreath's adaptive damage. Then we've got Wings of Mercy dancers and Fighter skills demanding that every engagement results in a ORKO. Quote Link to comment
Stephen 776 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 so, uhh, who do you think the ghb will be? Quote Link to comment
Elemental Hero Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Ylgr seems pretty cool. But leaving Surtr's Sinmara untouched? SERIOUSLY??? AND he powercreeps two skills at once? tl;dr Surtr shows how comically overpowered units need to be these days, especially armor units. Our first two-unit focus is a real drag, but on the bright side this makes sniping easier. Quote Link to comment
Surge135 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I am severely disappointed at this banner... Quote Link to comment
Alice Phantasma Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Fuck off Surtr. No one likes you. I'm actually mad they brought you to being playable because of how much of a worthless character you are xD Quote Link to comment
Elemental Hero Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Note: Ylgr's Sorcerous Blade skill will be inheritable. It grants dragonbreath's adaptive damage while the user is adjacent to a mage. Even if it doesn't turn out exclusive to daggers, I doubt it's going to see use. There isn't much need to turn your damage output from physical to magical when you're already accompanied by a magic user. Quote Link to comment

Alice Phantasma Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Huh. Neat. If this is @surge135 then we're around the same rank right now. Link, the Hero of Dreams and Doc Brown 2 Quote Link to comment
Stephen 776 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) hmmm? https://guide.fire-emblem-heroes.com/en-US/eve006/ very interesting image from here: Two things to note: - there's a four star halloween henry here - the source is the FEH website (the Sharena tutorial), so it's probably not photoshopped. What y'all make of this? can we get easily summonable year one seasonals? will chrom make an army of +10 spring chroms? Edited November 21, 2018 by Arvis Quote Link to comment

Chrom Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 Whether it's deliberate or an oversight, I don't think anyone should be surprised at the idea of older seasonals becoming easier to obtain over time through whatever means. Quote Link to comment

Chrom Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 They really need to demote five stars again soon. The pool's gotten really stale again so it doesn't make summoning as fun anymore for older players. Link, the Hero of Dreams and Doc Brown 2 Quote Link to comment
