I have all of those horse units. I will have to try them out, although I need to put work into them to make them work. My Rein/Eli are 4* and Cecilia is 3*. 5* Xander though (both blue and red, although red seems better overall)

My standard arena team is:
Nino 5* - Desperation, Ardent Sacrifice
Nowi 5* - Moonbow, Swordbreaker
Olivia 4* - no SI

Plus whatever bonus unit. Alfonse tends to work the best since it covers up the gaping green weakness. Olivia just does not cut it against a 5* Hector usually.

My team just does poorly to ranged units in general. Especially green tomes but blue tomes like Linde that can dent Nowi hard while taking minor damage in return sucks as well since I tend to need to bait them in with Nowi to revenge with Nino. Lucina also sucks a bit because I always need to avoid them on enemy phase until I can safely one shot them by initiating with Nowi. Also, Vantage Hector. I saw those a few times and those usually mean I lose outright if bonus unit is not Alfonse.

I'm thinking of putting Life and Death/Moonbow on Nino, Fury on Nowi and Fury/Ruby Sword+/Hone Speed on Olivia eventually but most of those are pretty far off (no Roys or Hinatas ever)


I think Fury is better on Nino. If you can buff her enough, she should be able to ORKO Vantage Hector, I think (Julia can if her speed is high enough).

Can you not bait Linde in with Nino? Assuming Nino has Desperation I'm pretty sure whatever damage you take just brings you one step closer to ORKOing everything before they can counterattack. Throwing some C Ability buffs on your other units (instead of seal res on Nowi, e.g.) to make full use of Nino's tome is also probably a good idea.

I run
5* Nino, reposition, moonbow, fury3, desperation 3, hone atk, quicken pulse/ +spd seal
5* Celica, reposition, blazinglight, fury3, desperation 3, hone spd, +1 atk
5* MRobin, reposition, bonfire, Tri Adept 2, Quick riposte 2, fort def, fort res1 seal

Main goal is to bait all their ranged units and kill them on return and freely reposition out of the way to kite the melee units.
Nino blows up all the blue units, celica same to greens with her unique weapon giving +5 atk +5 spd is normally enough to double so its actually +10 attack. MRobin with triadept has no problem baiting any of the ranged reds or colourless.

Rotating: Sharena and Anna when its their turn (i dont like alphonse so i probably wont 5star him for ages) and if its not sharean or Anna i can normally find a banner unit to run.
I can hit 4800~ but never above 4850.

Pull from Alm's army banner: first round, thinking, "Okay, I want either Delthea for offense or Matilda for cancel affinity. I've saved plenty of orbs up so I'll just pull all 5 first to build pity %." Pull all five, get Gray. Think, "Okay, kinda backfired, but whatever, 5* is 5*. Can't complain, still have plenty of orbs." Pull all five again, get (my second) 5* Azura.

Can't decide if good luck or bad.

The joys of a -res Nino. I do bait with Nino sometimes, just only terrain dependent or if there's a good defensive tile. Otherwise, I just activate Desperation with Ardent Sacrifice. Also, I tried the Hector matchup before having good buffs or Desperation and it didn't work so well. I just bumped into another Hector a few days ago and comfortably one shot him from full so I guess he's not an issue now at least.
There is no need to be mad.

The free units rotate through to help f2p & brand new players be able to always have someone so it was her turn.

Also, I'm sad Berkut sucks with 22 speed because he seems really cool.

So I decided to grind out and hit rank 20 to see how hard it is to stay in the top bracket with all the whales. Had to break my record high score by a decent bit and dump a lot of swords (about 15~) on re rolling matches but I think I'll pull it off. The team I was running up until now caps out at around 4810~ total score, so I had to cutCecilia and and add a dead weight Hector just so I had a high enough total BST to make the cut off for the bracket (which i think is around 4820~).

Wow that is nice.

I only go between rank 17/18 all the time.

I did some focus on Celica's banner to try for a Delthea or Sonya. Instead pulled 5* Azura, 5* Gray (I got entire thing when I hit Azura), and later got a 5* Catria, 5* Roderick, and 4* Boey. Boey is surprisingly good so far, although I feel that giving his tome to someone with actual stats would be way better. And Gray is hilarious. Watching him green horse units for 70+ damage at level 30 is amusing. Even when I throw him at blue horses he just kills them instantly. The Zanbato+ is really nice.

I have like 225 orbs and no idea what to spend them on. I skipped both summer banners, honestly at this point I'm just waiting for heroes I like/are decent to pop up lol, rather than saving them for COOL NEW CONTENT ~ ~ ~!

There are 9 heroes extra show in one of the updated pictures for the upcoming events, one of them is a grand hero battle unit and the other 8 will probably be two new banners, so we might be getting some good units there

Oh neat. Yeah a lot of the newer characters lately just haven't seemed that strong. Not that my current loadout is totally decked out and inherited perfectly and all that, I really only have ~2 teams for doing lvl40/tempest stuff, but I've been holding out for something that seems ridiculously good I guess. Probably not too likely at this point. I should just start spending for characters I like that I don't have yet.

TIL: some banners give you a free summon before you have to pay with orbs

... or has this only been implemented recently?

all new banners have this feature, the there are some banners that were already present when this feature was rolled out so they dont get the free summon.

It is worth noting, that if your actively going to pull from that banner, the free summon takes counts as the 5 orb summon cost, meaning if u were to pull the rest of the orbs that would be 4,4,4,3. So bascially if ur willing to pull from that banner in the future dont go wasting that orb as soon as the banner is released, best to save up 15 orbs so if that banner did pop up with all 5 colours (or if u want to pull all 5 anyway) you would be able to take advantage of the free 5 cost orb.

New banner for Sacred Stones coming soon.

Characters seem interesting, although none of them seem terribly strong on their own. Looks like good SI though. Nidhogg bow, March armor, Guidance 3 all look nifty. Might make an armor team actually work now.

I hit 20 for the first time a couple weeks ago. Subsequently got a perfect streak, still wasn't high enough to maintain rank, decided I didn't care enough about the feathers to grind out matches. Long as I get my 4 orbs! That said it was pretty cool. Having played since release and spent barely any money, my team is slowly but surely getting to look like the lineups with all the 40+gazillion 5*s.

Also, Gray is a beast. I was bummed when I got him but 53 atk and 32 spd (usually buffed to 38) is no joke. Not so pumped about Ninian, whom I also just got. Seems like a strictly worse version of Azura unless you have lots of dragons? Idk, just leveling her to 40 has been a huge pain.
