Damn, I got excited when I first saw the Legendary. I liked the concept of Fallen Robin, and now there is one for the female one, and in legendary form!

If anything, it annoys me that it's a flier, and for no apparent reason. They did make her levitate but come on, that's more like an excuse for the flying mobility. Feels like an overkill when it's already unique as a Colorless Dragon and a legendary.

I find a bit ironic that dragonskin protect from flying bonuses instead of, you know, dragon bonuses.

 

As for the rest of the banner, I'm looking forward to Brave Lyn and Nowitch. I wouldn't mind getting Blyn instead of L Grima.

I would really like F!Grima but I'm also partially hoping to get a 2nd Bowlyn so I can give Atk Smoke to Hardin. Red is just a fantastic color this banner, too. H!Nowi's super adorable and has a cool tome so I wouldn't mind attempting to pull for her as well.

Was kind of expecting a water legendary hero, given we haven't gotten one of those in the longest time. I believe Grima was classified as an earth dragon, it thus makes sense in that regard. My female Morgan already had the earth blessing (Ike's "defense tactic" helps her take advantage of "Blárblade"), so she will benefit greatly from her "mother" being on the same team.

 

Stats I'm expecting for neutral Robin based on the video: 40 hp, 32 atk, 27~35 speed,  29 def, 31~39 res

  • We can see that "Fell vessel:  Robin" has 40 hp.
  • Her damage without special would be 28 against Chrom. He probably has 20 res (17 base + 3 fury), which would put Robin's attack (with weapon) at 48. Subtracting the weapon's might (16) leaves us with 32.
  • Neither Chrom or Robin doubles the other. This puts Robin's speed in the range of 27 to 35; slower would let Chrom double her; faster and she would double him.
  • Bonfire deals an additional 15 damage on initiation, making her def 29~30. Chrom most likely has 56 atk (37 base + 3 fury + 16 weapon), which becomes 84 thanks to effectiveness. As the forecast had the damage at 55, 29 defense is most likely for Robin.
  • She didn't battle units with magical damage, so that is a mystery. Assuming she has a similar stat total to Myrrh (167), you will look at a res of about 31 ((167 total - (40 hp + 32 atk + 27~35 speed + 29 def)) =  31~39). Most recent heroes with complete sets had a special which would fit their stats, which makes me wonder why she doesn't have "Iceberg" if these stats turn out correct.

Assuming those are correct, she seems slightly underwhelming thanks to her overly balanced stats. We will find out in due time.

Actually, the more I think about it, the less excited I'm about F!Grima. It feels like they tried too hard to make her special that it comes out as lazy. It's the first Colorless Dragon + Legendary + Flying and on top of that its starting kit conveniently nullifies 2 of its weaknesses. Not to mention it re-uses the concept of evil Robin as Grima, consequently making M!Grima less unique, and so far legendary heroes have been either new characters, or lead characters of their games, and while Robin is indeed a lead character, Grima isn't so much, and in that way it feels out of place. Unless Legendary Heroes shift to including main villains as well, which actually is something I would welcome.

 

Also, I had adopted this trend of picturing Robin Grima as an evil big bro with a soft spot for his dragon sisters, going as far as to protect them with Ward Dragons. And the arrival of evil big sis twin may shift that dynamic.

Gotten a "Gentle Nekomata: Sakura" (+atk, -hp). Seems pretty good, though a bane in defense might have been slightly better. Now I only need "Tropical flower: Elise", ""Normal girl": Tharja", and "Youthful gifts: Roy", at which point I will have all "valor" skills.

 

It seems Robin came with her own set of maps for a few free orbs and an Earth blessing.

Bragging time!

Took the free summon on F!Grima's banner, and it showed 2 colorless, 1 red, and IIRC 1 green and 1 blue orbs. Rolled for the Colorless, nothing, decided to keep going with the 2nd colorless and red, and to my surprise, the red one is Nowitch with +Atk/-HP hell yesh!

Decided to roll for the other 2 just in case the Rank5 streak kept going, but nothing.

Still, I got my main interest of the banner. If I get Spring Sharena before it ends, I will give it more shots for colorless orbs.

Only done the free summon off the Legendary banner getting a 4* Jakob. Also did another summon off the Spring banner, getting managing to pull a S!Catria. She is +HP/-Spd, but as she still has better offensive stats, she'll probably take Ursula's place ony cavalry team, as I have a spare Blarbalde I pulled from a neutral Tailtui on an earlier summon.

Was trying to think of how I wanted to build my H!Nowi and then I saw suggestions of Escape Route, that's hilarious. While above 50% HP she can teleport to nearby allies with Grimoire, and when below 50% HP she can teleport to allies anywhere on the map. Give her the Guidance seal on top of that and it's just a big old warp party.

 

Also thank goodness for Hardin, with the hard(in) carry on the F!Grima Infernal map.

 

EDIT: New weapon refinements coming! https://twitter.com/FE_Heroes_JP/status/979614395905933312/

 

I'm assuming Ephraim and Hector will just be able to refine into their alts' versions of their weapons. I'm most happy about Fir getting a Prf refinment, though.

Ephraim and Hector's weapon upgrades have been confirmed to be "Blazing Siegmund" and "Berserk Armads" respecively. That Ephraim gets another upgrade for his weapon opens up the possibility for others to get one as well; Merric probably has more use for another upgrade than a "Wo dao" for example.

 

Already gave my Ephraim the refinements for his weapon that improves the buff in addition to letting him double based on hp (it however only works on your own turn). So I will leave the new upgrade for what it is. As it is an upgrade instead of refinement, I expect it to cost 150 divine dew instead of 200, making it a budget option of sorts.

 

As if we didn't have enough units with a personal sword, we get two more (although they get the same personal weapon): Fir and Karel. I' epecting a stronger "Wo Dao" or a "Slaying edge" (and other unique effect) for them. Forblaze probably gets effectiveness against dragons, which could be useful with all those dragons running around as of late; but we are still lacking blue/colorless ones.

 

Roy and Lloyd finally get a refinement, which was somewhat overdue if you ask me. I wonder what effect they will get though.

I finally rolled and got Spring Sharena. I hoped I would be done with the banner but I took a look at the boon/banes and... +HP/-Spd. It's like, opposite from desired boon/banes. I can take 1 bad boon/bane, but 2? Guess I will continue rolling for her.

I'm glad I got so lucky with that banner cause didn't get so lucky in the legend banner...well that's a lie. I got +atk -def zelgius which is good but I also wasn't all too interested in zelgius over others. But still, I do intend to try and "collect" in this game so it's fine.

 

Also I am out of space in the barracks so I was getting rid of 3 star dupes to start with but wondering is there any three stars that are worth keeping for skills and such?

I'll keep three stars I don't have four/five stars of but other than that probably won't ever try and train them so was curious.

It is unfortunate that your Sharena has such a bad nature. She can still be somewhat useful for debuffing the enemy team, without needing to get involved in combat, thanks to her default weapon. But it is quite limiting. Success when trying to get a better one.

A lot of skills on the 3 star units are either exclusive to them, useful on a lot of units, or great budget alternatives for rarer skills. Hinata (Fury) and Shanna (Desperation) are probably the some of the best units to keep around. Units that come with a 3-charge special at four stars are typically also quite nice to use for inheritance of said special (Shanna and Niles for "Iceberg", Robin and Tiki for "Bonfire", and Corrin for "Dragonic aura"). Selena and Barst come with "Reposition", which is a great assist skill (especially in an all flying team). Most healer units on the other hand aren't that great for skill inheritance, due to them having most skills locked at 5 star (or uninheritable otherwise); that isn't to say they are bad units if you are willing to invest some feathers (and refining stones) in them.

In the end I never got F!Grima, the first time I've missed a Legendary Hero the first time around. Ah well, she'll be back.

 

I've decided that Draug will be my first 5*+10 project, so far he's +2:

Only 160k feathers (or more depending if I need the 2k to go from 3* to 4*) to go.

I regret spending my orbs on this legendary banner when the *4 banner features L'arachel. Skipping Leif Nanna Finn going to be pretty painful, but anything for Larch.

 

and I suppose I need four more Draugs to finish my armor emblem.

I feel your pain. I got another Fjorm.

 

As for orbs, saving them up. True I'll miss last year's spring time banner, but new Thracia 776 characters are welcome.

 

And for feathers, I used them on my 4* Felicia, gave her her plate, and now...

This banner is great. Nephenee and Brave Ike were my starting Rank5 characters and soon became my personal OTP. I would roll for it to try to get better boon/banes but... I'm short of orbs and I'm still hunting for another Spring Sharena.

 

On another note, I went for Spring Sharena in the gauntlet, but as you know by now she lost, then chose Spring Alfonse without a second thought since I got him as a unit and now he is being destroyed by Spring Kagero xD

At least he gets plenty of point multipliers.

I DID THE SAME THING

tho I chose Alphonse cause of the spoon and lop bunny ears.

Also last I saw he was actually barely ahead.

Edit: Just checked and holy cow that shifted.
