Guessing the one star and two star version like it has been for the other characters?

We don't know, but I doubt that. The daily ones reset after 12 days and start anew, this event only lasts 4 days, so I wouldn't be suprised if we could get him at least as 3* or 4*.

You can get a total of 6,000 feathers from missions this month from doing 140 total arena battles + 40 on hard + 20 on lunatic. It sounds like a lot, but over the span of 20 days it's not that bad.

You get 60 free reset swords over that span. And each mission tier gives you 10 swords, so another 90 battles on top of that if you spend it.

On top of that, you can get feathers from ranking.

So if you're able to hit the top 1,000 or 5,000 rank each week, you can get a total of at least 4,600 feathers each week you rank that high.

So combine that all, you can get at least 22,400 feathers each month if you try and put effort into it. Granted you need to win consistently, and you may need to spend orbs. But spending orbs to do this is a more than worth it investment if you're not strong enough.

That's pretty fair, Nintendo's learning how to run a smartphone game and listening at least.

Oh did they announce that?

Yes, on twitter. It's also in the announcements you see when you start up the game. (though they don't explicitly tell you who it is in either announcement, the silhouette and quote included makes it pretty obvious its Narcian)

And yeah, I recall reading Narcian'll be three stars.

Is there anything better I can do with the 1* daily characters other than just convert them into 5 feathers? It feels like a waste.

Some of them can be pretty good depending on what you're missing and feather costs aren't out there until you start promoting into 5*s.

So with the way Arena is currently set up, people without 4 excellent units (but whose units are mid 30s or higher) are better off just taking their best 3 and a low level healer with a decent heal skill.

You could hold onto them, it seems we can only recruit each version once even after it resets after 12 days. To do anything useful with that character you have to upgrade him to 4* or 5*, which of course takes time and feathers.

How much do you get off of this? I wouldn't say all 4 of my units are amazing but I think I still finished with a decent score.

Yeah, but I'm already getting the 2* version of that character. Why bother keeping both?

U WOT M8

Where are you getting this from? That's a pretty significant piece of information.

It's written at the bulletin board information about the special missions. I just saw that myself yesterday.

Make a low level team and level them up when you're low on stamina. It also doesn't cost that much in the way of crystals and feathers to just level/promote them straight away.

my team is lv33-36

Marth 5*, Robin 5*, Camilla 4*, Clarine 4*

3 succesful defenses this season. Win intermediate consistently, hard is 50/50.

I'm right on the edge of the ranking, going to try and see if I can string 7 hard wins together...

I am also seeing you get more points if everyone survives?

Getting a 3 star version of a banner card is a real kick in the teeth. It's so difficult to get them to 5 star. I've never seen a gacha this stingy with their awakening materials.

It depends on the level of your characters, but between 4000-4100 for an average level of 32.5 on a 7 level advanced run.

I was basically getting 565-585 a match on advanced, with full survivorship, and usually near full health. I haven't experimented with how high you can bring up the character average before you start seeing the return of the Takumi, Lucina, M Robin, and Azura Level 40 super teams, but the trade off of a lower point cap is worth it for me, since I was getting lower scores on at least 2-3 battles of 7 each round. Occasionally significantly lower.

Of course, if your team is amazing, there is less need to take a point hit.

That's pretty good. My score was a bit higher but I had risky points lol. Might give this a try.
 
Oh, the gacha gods. After rerolling and getting Takumi and Lyn on my first roll, I get nothing but trash on my next 3 normal rolls.

That's a lesson to us all.

I want to buy stamina potions with my Nintendo Points... but i'm also hoping for AMAZING deal when Switch launches...

I hope they add some daily/weekly my nintendo missions. I need more stamina potions. ;_;

If you have a 3DS/Wii U there is a weekly 70 coins (connecting to Miiverse/eShop +30 each, clicking the coin next to your Mii on https://my.nintendo.com/ +10 iirc) and another 10 coins monthly for subscribing to the newsletter.

I kinda expect some nice MyNintendo missions with the Switch, dunno about deals.

I'd just wait and see. You usually can't even get max awakening mats in FFBE outside of events, though fortunately their events are pretty frequent.

Hurray, got Takumi and Tiki, just need Hector and Robin now.
Managed to get 2 Camilla though, Hector isn't as necessary as Robin.

Whoa. Never expected that coin to actually be something you click on.

Your amazing Switch deals with be 10-20% off a few virtual console titles that you have already purchased twice.

Man Takumi is broken good.

I'm so glad I deleted my last save (1 5 star after 19 rolls) and rerolled until I got him (Goal was Takumi or Hector plus another 5 *).

Definitely worth it. Plus there's so little content right now that I would recommend anyone who haven't monetarily invested in this and have had terrible roll to just start over. Takes like a few days to finish most of the content again.

Just a thought- do you think there will be universal badges that can be used on anyone? The two spaces in the inventory make it seem likely. I wonder if they might appear as rarer items later, or maybe in the training tower on Mondays (once the stamina cost goes back up on the 21st) but with a very low drop rate compared to the other colours.
 
I really like this game. A lot. Just a nice bite sized phone game and the battles only take a minute or so. I've gotten 4 5* summons and a ton of 4* summons. Just wish there was more to do...
 
I did it! Hector Takumi dream team!

I keep getting trolled in the arena by Elise who I can't oneshot with my dragons and has enough movement speed for Takumi to hide behind. :(

Hector really isn't all that good for arena defense is he? Whenever a hector pops up in my fights, I focus on killing the other three characters, then make him chase me in circles until I have all my characters back to full health. I can let him spend an attack on Chrom to avoid his defensive double, heal up most of that damage (Thanks to the favorable weapon triangle, Hector against Chrom is usually 10-15 HP), and then finish him off in a second hit.

Given that half of the 5 star units seem to be Red, I would imagine that most players have some counter to a single Hector.

No he isn't. The AI is stupid and just leaves him behind lol.

Your first team is your defense team so make a defense focused one and have a second team be the one you pvp with.
 
Question, to get a Greater Verdant Badges, I need to beat the training tower at level 6 or above. I have cleared it like 7 times, but still just get the reguar badges. What do I need to do to get the higher tier ones, is it just a % chance I will get the Greater badge?

I love my Azama so much. He can take many hits despite being a healer and his upgraded attack skill is amazing for training lowbies quickly and safely

I should promote him to 5

As far as I've seen it's random. I don't know if the game tells you but you definitely don't get them every time.

I usually get them at level 8 and above.
 
Did a reroll with 4 x 5* for the first time.
All under "A" tier in list unfortunately. Very frustrating.

Lucky in a way, but crappy in the end.
I must be the only one still trying some rerolls. o.o

it's random on the higher ones

Question about the star stuff. Are characters stuck at their star level? Or can they be promoted?

And also the star difficulty on the levels, is that saying your characters should be that level?
