Oneshotting Ryoma is easy, with the default Death Blow your Delthea is already oneshotting most common Ryoma with Fury. Most people won't run a +RES Ryoma so unless he is close to +10 your vanilla Delthea can blow him up quite comfortably.
Tanking Reinhardt though, is next to impossible especially with the ocean of Reinhardts with +ATK Death Blow Quickened Pulse. It's not worth trying tbh. Your Delthea has arguably the best IV; you should go crazy on offensive instead. You can tank most blue mages without problem, it is just that most likely Reinhardt isn't one of them.

Good for you. I feel so much better without the grinding and I can live without those orbs.
Are you really grinding for the remaining 9 orbs? I'm not sure if it's actually worth it dude. I'll be stopping at 40-45k for sure.
EDIT: With the colour palette we've been used to with the majority of units, Gray's darker colours keep tricking me into thinking he does not have a turn because he looks greyed out. That will take some getting used to!
Why? 10,000 points for 3 orbs seems like really poor time/reward grinding (as you say), so why bother?

People just like to complain.
It makes a difference when there's so many banners to pull from right now.

Tempted to grind out the 100k Tempest score myself. Managed to hit just under 50k grinding out max HM from Alfonse, Sharena, Anna, and Sakura. It's also nice to have more orbs~
I couldn't grind to 100k for the last Tempest Trials because it was much harder than this one.
In this one I have been consistently getting 646, 676 or 705 points.
Klein which I don't use in Arena unless he is a bonus hero has the most SP gained in the team used for Tempest Trials that I am wondering if it will cap at 9999.
Edit: Just hit 80k points in Tempest Trials, I can now take a break from it and do the chain challenges in Story mode for now.

I can't really judge the last Tempest's difficulty as I just Pony Emblem'd my way through it. lol Far as I can tell though, it isn't actually any harder? Maybe less annoying though when there aren't as many trees or mountains in your way.
I would get that too, if I had a 40% bonus unit. As it stands now, I don't even get 600 points (unless I change teams and somehow survive with my Sharena team). The Trial itself is easier, I loose much less than I did last time. But that I miss out 20%, uuugh. I am at 31,5k and I could be nearly done by now. >_>

Whale power is truly something terrifying to observe.
Desperation and Draconic Aura. Nice invitation to be tanked and 1RKO'd on enemy phase by a +0 B Tomebreaker Linde with a HP+3 seal.

Got a +SPD -HP Delthea. We did it boys.
Now she only needs a billion SP.

Good thing it's 2x SP weekend, get to farming!
I still can't even invest in a Cavalry Emblem because the necessary characters I need aren't 5*.
Technically, I have 5* (Eldigan, Cain, Titania, Olwen and Mathilda).
But not 5* Cecilia or Reinhardt.
I could set up a Cavalry team using Cain, Titania, Mathilda and one other but the Hone/Fortify Cavalry buffs don't make them as devastating as buffing Cecilia does.

Her unique weapon combined with Attack Drive makes her very useful as a support unit. I got a -Atk/+def and I am kitting her to just check falchion users on a dragon team.
If only. All I get are 5* healers.
Well it's my fault for pulling colorless.
Edit: I finally get Rebecca and she's -att. Kill me.

Hey, my Genny is -Atk
Double SP came just in time for me to train up my newly acquired Olwen and Nino. I've spent 150 or so stamina with them in training tower and chain challenges and now they are already Tempest-ready and started grinding Tempest for HM and SP. That's even faster than I thought.
This duo's early performance in Tempest has been delightful, they have cleared through 7 stages reliably without any issue so far. I've used Nino on my other account before so she's nothing new to me; Quadwen (+SPD, L&D3, Desperation 3) on the other hand though, is really a pleasant surprise. When supported by Hone Cav she literally quad 90% of the Tempest-inflated enemies. And those she can't quad are normally squishy enough to die to 2 hits anyway. I think she will replace Reinhard to lead my Horse Emblem 1st team (yeah, I think I'm building a second Horse team with all these good horses we are getting lately) so that my Reinhardt can concentrate on my conventional mixed team (aka arena core). I look forward to finally not needing to switch my Reinhardt's C skill back and forth (generic buffs <=> horse buffs) all the time

Nice. Gotta farm those SP together this week.
Luckily passed my 40k TT few hours ago.
Hey, can always give her skill to the better girl Elise

I think you miswrote worse.

Teehee, I can't even be mad anymore. Pulled only Greens, and a colorless when I didn't have greens, trying to get Sonya. Of course, the colorless turns into the bow guy on banner. +HP -SPD. Yeehaw!
Few more pulls on greens, get Sonya! +DEF -ATK - Yeeeeeeeehaw!
Have a few spare orbs, back over to the swimsuit banner - pull green. Tikibikini! -ATK +RES - YEEEEEEEEEEEEHAW!
3 5*s on ~50 orbs, every single one with bad IVs. I could almost predict this stuff. Doesn't matter though, got the units I wanted. Still, you'd think just by sheer probability I'd have a decent IV on ONE of my units soon. It's almost always -atk or -spd.

Cecilia does just fine at 4* so long as you give her a Gronblade. A couple fewer points in Attack isn't gonna prevent her from one-shotting just about everything.
Valbar might have been on the original game's box art, but he's not that major a character - not to the extent that including other random party members over him is somehow strange. Conrad isn't all that significant either, but I would have expected him to be something like a Tempest unit instead of Tobin - carrying on the 'masked knight' theme is a bonus. Then maybe they could have used Sirius for the next one...
It remains to be seen how Clive will be distributed, but not choosing those antagonists over Berkut is understandable - Jedah, while a major antagonist, isn't anywhere near as appealing a character, especially visually. And while I'd have preferred Rudolf over Berkut, I can admit he'd be a poor choice as an incentive for the same reason.
Faye's Alm side (unlike Conrad or Valbar); and Celicia's three initial companions were Boey, Mae, and Genny.
The initial banners should've had Clive and Conrad instead of Faye and Genny.
Valbar should've been in the current one instead of Leon.
They're both far more significant than Faye and Genny, particularly the latter. I mean, Genny only has a single support in the entire game, and it's one a lot of people may have missed.
Then Berkut and Randolph or Jedah as the Grand Hero Battles.

Faye and Genny both gave us awesome stuff so no. Conrad doesn't even belong in the beginning.

What's the multiplier on the new Calvary Killer weapons? Gray at level 12 is doing 40-50 dmg to green Calvary on each Atk, so nearly 100 on doubles. At level 12.

Sounds like my luck recently with the summer banner. Four pulls as well, no greens, and then when I finally did get one with 4.25%, it was a 5* Merric. Summer Tiki's definitely been the toughest banner unit to get.

So what're the recommended builds for +SPD Delthea? Is going the Nino route with desperation + either deathblow / LnD3 / fury the best bet or is there something interesting to do with a unit with single digit defense?

Why is it Berkut's Lance?
