Cool, IS is making comic shorts about FEH.

https://fire-emblem-heroes.com/ja/manga/part/index.html#part01

Here is Cordelia watching Kiran attempting to summon her husbando Chrom but Felicia wasted all their orbs pulling on blues because Chrom hair is blue when she was supposed to pull on red. Cordelia laments how even in this world she will never talk to Chrom. Pretty much sums up everyone feeling when they are trying to summon their favorite character.

Got Dorcas in 8 orbs. Looks like he's +SPD -RES which isn't really all that exciting but it's not crippling so it's fine.

Spend a lot of orbs on the last two banners and got Delthea, Lute and Dorcas best case scenario but in the context of a new hero fest banner coming I think I should've just have hoarded, I lost 190 orbs on the 210 I got. I have great units but I could have spend for way better choices....

Just finished watching that Feh Channel.

I didn't expect the weapon refinery to happen so soon. I did expect it to happen in general since the slaying weapons were introduced (You know, power creep).

But with Book 2 of story mode appearing, it looks like they put in a decent budget for the cutscene but will the story quality be improved?

If you look at the top page https://fire-emblem-heroes.com/ja/manga/index.html you can see Veronica playing with toy puppets. She especially likes toy Reinhardt and Lyn.
This one is very cute.

Bleargh. Spent 100 orbs on this banner and nothing. Not even a pity breaker. What rotten luck.

Free summon was 5* Reinhardt. I mean merge fodder is good, but he's not my arena unit. Same session I got -Spd 5* Mae. Wheee. And with a total of 14 summons I owned +HP/-Def Dorcas. Well I want Lute, but he's the best unit, he'll carry TT easily, and I'd rather not push this good luck, so I guess it's time to save for Bridal Cordelia.

Well that was crazier than I expected.

Edit: I didn't even want Mia but I had 3 red orbs on my free summon so opened them all and got her. Up Def Down HP. Guess I'll have to upgrade Phantom Speed at some point.

Did Ayra already get powercreeped by Mia lol

No lol.

Second when they show gameplay with Fjorm if you watch closely at her portrait at the top there are two small icons. One is the 'speed' icon in green font and the other looks like a droplet or a lock(?).Wonder what are those...

Good spot. Another gameplay element yet to be announced. I guess we'll get another update before Book II begins which may explain that.

Hooray, got all new heroes with the orbs i've saved and dropping 20 bucks! *Checks IVs for fun* Hooray, i got all new heroes with -Spd IV!

... Seriously? Ok, not the biggest problem with 2 Spd Seals at Lvl 3 ... and not a problem on Dorcas in generals as he is ... just slow ... but man, if i'd still care for IVs i know i would be furious.

*Sees the 8%-No-Off-Focus-banner* Why didn't i save my orbs??? ;_;

So Fjorm has DC built-in her weapon. If Ice Mirror negates the damage from a magic hit and add the power to Fjorm's attack (https://youtu.be/RGFbiZ9Rl3g?t=17m), she can be a great mage counter.

Yesss, finally got Henry. Never ever, am I pulling on a seasonal banner again. I'm probably gonna skip all banners until after Christmas but damn at that 8% Brave Lyn...

I managed to get Lute on my free summon.
+Res/-HP.

I'm leaving the banner at that and saving my orbs for that legendary banner.

Man, this 8% banner is going to be unreal. No sniping for me this time -- I'd be happy to pull almost any of these units, even the half of them that I already have and use. +10 Brave Lyn, here I come!

Not to mention New And Improved Sharena 2.0 With New Hat, who looks downright ridiculous. I didn't expect an infantry lancer to replace Brave Lucina in my roster so easily, but I'm already sold on Fjorn.
The new units for Heroes continue to show up the Warriors original characters in design, too.

yeah this, after the initial hype has settled down, im sort of disappointed we didnt get a new game mode.

She's lovely. Wonder if we will be able to pull multiple copies of her.

Well you still have some time to hoard orbs, and even a TT next week. Alternatively, dropping more $ works as well xD.

Isn't she in that 8% banner?

I'm skipping the new banner so hard, BCordelia is THE one unit I regret not having pulled, I'm going all in for her! ^^
And I wouldn't mind a good IV BLyn or some wrathful staves, so it's all good...

Yeah but its just so weird that they would let a story character be pullable like that (see The Askr trio).

I don't mind it really, its just blue is probably the weakest "color" on the banner (why Spring Xander...I want Bunny Lucina ;-;)

It's a bit weird indeed, but at the same time they seem to be treating her a bit differently than the initial trio, giving her at 5-star and all... But I wonder if we'll ever be able to pull for the trio, I wouldn't mind a merged Sharena!
And yeah, my only gripe with this 8% banner is that blue isn't really attractive: I need to pull blues for a chance at my first Reinhardt, goddammit IS! ^^

Right now we have:

Ally
Alphonse: Red, sword unit
Sharena: Blue, lance unit
Anna: Green, axe unit
Fjorm: Blue, lance unit

Enemy:
Veronica: Green, mage unit
Bruno: Blue, mage unit
Loki: ?? , mage unit
Sword loli: Red, sword unit
Surtr: Green, axe unit

Seems a little unbalanced war for now..

Spring Xander and Deidre are the only two disappointments in the lineup, I'd say. I'm still going to pull blues for Bride Caeda and Fjorn, but it'll feel a lot like a pity break if I end up pulling Xander.

Deidre is a good unit though, unlike Spring Xander.

....I will however say that seeing her has brought myself to again question my decision to whale hard for her during her banner (and also pulling two sub-par IV copies of her and then never using her after building her..)

Do we know the theme of the next Tempest Trail yet?
I think the only thing known so far is that Brave Ike appears on the TT mode banner and some text between Marth & New Heroes from the start/end of the TT.

Btw, with the new cooldowns, do you will use some of these skills ? Isn't Glimmer a better option than Moonbow now for some builds ?

Hmm I'm not sure about Glimmer, but I think Sol and Noontime have some potential. Will need to see what all the upgraded weapons do first.

I kind of wish they had announced all these things as they were implementing them. Right now no one is pulling because of the 8%, and I feel like I shouldn't do any inheritance until we know exactly what all the weapon upgrades do.

Red: Ayra/Celica/Ike
Green: Deirdre/S!Camilla/Hector
Blue: Fjorm/B!Caeda/S!Xander
Colorless: B!Cordelia/Genny/B!Lynn

8% seems nice and you are guaranteed to get a 5 star from the actual banner. Only character I want is Celica, but I gotta go through Ike and Ayra to get her.
That's a really strong banner. I might just throw my orbs at it to upgrade my Brave Lyn and Bride Cordelia, let alone the others. Most of those are strong units.

I never play gacha games with unit quality in mind -- that's the quickest route to disappointment! So my rating of a banner is always a bit off from most people. I just focus on the units I think are coolest, kinda like Pokemon logic.
...Which actually means I should include Bride Cordelia in the disappointment category too, come to think of it. Never did much like her.
It's a bit hypocritical of me to not call Camilla a disappointment, since she's a pathetic character, but darn it, I want another blade tome on my Flier Emblem team! I put up with Nowi, and I can put up with Camilla!

Okay, thanks. Hopefully I'll have a 40% bonus unit by the time it starts.
I would advise against pulling at least till the TT is out (unless you really like the new heroes releasedd today)

Its possible we may get another Ayra situation since we dont know the 4th bonus unit yet.

Oh thats perfectly normal, I myself only pull for the waifus and nearly always neglect the guys (unless they are gamebreaking ofc).

Well if you try to pull for a unit that shares a color of another focus unit you need to prepare for that to happen. At least Jakob is a good unit compared to the other times IS made focus units share color.
Its gacha, in well aware that it's garbage, but I'm more likely to send Jakob home than use him. Shit character

Just watched the FEH channel video- when the owl says 'chapters 1 and 2 of book 2 available immediately', does that mean immediately upon the update's release on 27/11 rather than right now?

Just ignore the character and keep him for AA/armor quests, even if you dislike the character it can still be useful. The feathers aren't worthy imo.
It is just my opinion ok, but if you try to see the worth of every unit, the gacha system seems less garbage.
