Fire Emblem Heroes

Bump: Well, Heroes now has its first casualty. The sad part is we don't get her as a freebie. And She probably won't be available for any more Legendary Heroes banners.

Notes on the previous legendary banner indicated that the next time Gunntrhá is planned to appear is the end of May. It is thus assumed that the next legendary hero will be a green unit, similar to how Ephraim and Fjorm alternate. As for who it will be? I have no idea.

 

It seems that we won't be getting Gunntrhá for free then (even if just at 1 star). So the team I have built around her, will have to wait a tad longer.

But Gunnthra is dead. We can't bring her back.

...First, spoilers, dang it.

Second, you realize how many dead people and multiple copies of people run around in Heroes? I doubt they'll remove the hero.

April-May calendar:

 

btw, "Combat Boosts" refers to Blow skills since it uses "一撃" on the Japanese calendar which is what is in all the Blow skills' names. Examples, Darting Blow > 飛燕の一撃, Swift Sparrow > 鬼神飛燕の一撃, Death Blow > 鬼神の一撃.

[Azure Wolf]

Managed to pull a +Def/-Res WT!Owlen, which means Gunnthrá/LA!Lilina (both +Spd/-Res) are still my best offensive green mages. Gunnthrá has more Spd, with Lilina more ATK + Blade tome. Still having a definite bonus unit for the Tempest Trail is good. Just need more Desperation fodder and that'll be Olwen finished with inheritence, outside of a second C skill for mixed teams possible Res Tactics.

[Astro Dude]

Man, my team is gonna be totally monocolor for the next Tempest Trial.

[Shradow]

Decided to go for some fodder and after about 100 orbs spent on the Cooldown Bonuses banner I ended up with +HP -Def Olwen, +HP -Spd Nephenee, and +Atk -Def Bike. Crazily enough, all of them came as the last three separate summons I did, and after Bike I decided to call it there.

 

I do like Nephenee but I'm not a fan of her IVs so she's gonna get foddered. Now I just need to decide who I want to give Wrath to. I'm torn between Draug, Fir, and the Black Knight right now.

Fir, Black Knight is already OP.

[Yemachu]

The bonus units for the tempest trials I have include: "Reinhardt: Thunder's fist" (+speed, -hp), "Olwen: Blue mage knight" (+res, -speed), and "Seliph: Heir of light" (+atk, -res). Will probably be using Seliph; his nature isn't as pointless as the others, and he isn't a cavalry unit (which I somewhat dislike using). I however haven't refined his weapon (yet), so he will have to do with its lackluster effect for now.

 

I cannot remember prior announcements listing the sacred seal as a prize (though you could sometimes spot it). "Drive atk" seems quite nice, and will probably work better for Marth than "Drive def" which he currently is using.

---

It seems that my team for Grand conquest put in some work overnight; when I went to bed we had only 2 zones (which includes the one with your leader), I woke up to 13.

[Shradow]

So the Saias map is actually mislabeled, it's supposed to be a GHB. It randomly being a "Reward Map" was weird.

[Shradow]

 

Note the M!Kana (who will be a GHB) and Kaze on the map at the end.

[Yemachu]

Between Myrrh, Robin and Fae, I already have enough green dragons. So Kana (F) doesn't really appeal to me all that much.

 

It looks like this Shigure doesn't sing. Slightly unfortunate, but to be exected. At least he comes with a somewhat cool lance. My guess would be for him to get demoted.

 

Hinoka looks quite amazing, with her bow that is effective against armored and flying units, while also having "Drive atk 2" built into it. Combined with the "Drive atk" sacred seal and skill (or "Goad fliers"), she can boost the attack of allies within 2 spaces of her by 9. As a flying unit, she can be easily positioned in such a way.

 

Kind of interesting that Kana (M) will be a grand hero battle. So far most of them have (arguably) been enemies at one point in their game, if I'm not mistaken. The only thing I can think of, is him going feral in his reqruitment chapter; but he was a neutral unit that helped you.

 

I wonder how Kaze will be distributed. The schedule doesn't have a tempest trial coming up, and Kana will be part of the grand hero battle. I don't really expexct him to be a legendary hero (who is presumably green), as he isn't a main lord… or villain.

---

On another note, I mnged to get a 5 star for my free summon on the battle boost banner: "Deirdre: Lady of the forest" (+def, -res). Not quite the unit I exected to show up, but I didn't have her yet. Her nature isn't the greatest, but she can at least be used to take care of some dragons in arena assault… I think.

[Azure Wolf]

Hinoka is the only unit that appeals to me, though not going to be summoning on the banner outside of the free pull. I have one of each of the other green dragons, so F!Kana doesn't appeal that much, and I'm not in need of more blue fliers. M!Kana is probably going to be used, depending on stats, to replace F!Corrin on a dragon team. Kaze I'm not that interested in as I don't really use dagger units outside of Arena Assault.

[Astro Dude]

Hinoka is a  great unit and the first Kinshi Knight, since they use lances and bows. Now, if Hinoka was voiced by E. G. Daily, like in Fates, everything would be perfect.

[Darj]

Have mixed feelings towards "Kinshinoka". On one hand, despite not playing Fates, I like Hinoka for her appearance and personality, so her getting an alt, and a first one of its kind, is welcomed by me. On the other hand, I understand the users who state they would have preferred Reina over yet another alt character. Other than her, not really excited about the banner, as I'm not familiar with Fates. I will take the free session to roll for colorless, if any, but that should be it. I would have rolled for Kaze as well, but it's not known yet how it will be obtainable.

[LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow]

Honestly I want to get Female Kana because, well mostly cause she's cute, but also because now I can it's possible to have a full team of green dragons and that amuses me.

[Phantom Roxas]

So, Matt Mercer voices Shigure. He also voices McCree in Overwatch. So, Shigure's "Noontime" is hilarious.

 

And they tease me with Kaze. I've been waiting for him since the game was first announced. GIVE HIM TO ME ALREADY, INTSYS.

 

Well, at least I'll have Kana. After the Morgans, having Kana makes sense. Though it's weird that we only seem to be getting the Female Kana. I'm wondering if Male Kana or Kaze would be Tempest Trial rewards, or if there's another Summoning Focus coming up with them.

[Shradow]

 

Also, M!Kana has Brazen Def/Res and Fortify Dragons, holy crap. For a free unit he's a treasure trove.

The notes that came with the reveal trailer have Kana (M) as a reward for besting him in a grand hero battle (starting on the 3rd of May). So we are almost guaranteed to get him.

 

In a similar vein, the data has already been mined.

 

Kaze supposedly comes with "Barb shuriken+", which is just "Kagami mochi+" (slaying weapon for dagger users). His sread is very similar to that of Felicia, but with 7 more attack.

 

The Kana (M) comes with "Fortify dragon" and "Brazen def/res". He is basically a faster Nowi, with slightly less hp and attack, but mire bulk. He unfortunatly cannot have a boon or bane (and can have less merges), so he probably won't be as great as Nowi.

 

Kana (F) has a very similar stat line.

 

Edit: And it seems that Shradow was way fster; didn't get the popup of new posts though.

[LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow]

So yesterday I dropped about half my orbs and ended up with a +Spd -Def Bow Hinoka

Today I rolled a single green orb and got Kana. Though she's +HP -Spd and I...don't know what would be good on her looking at her balanced stats. Any thoughts?

[Azure Wolf]

Not summoning off the Wings of Fate banner, aside from the free summon which gave me Niles. Did do a summon off the Combat Boost banner getting a 3* Lon'qu and Brave Lyn (+Res/-Spd). Lyn is probably going to be Swift Sparrow (possibly Male Corrin if Yato ever gets a refinement, or Brave Lucina) or Atk Smoke fodder, though I could merge to bring my +Spd/-Def Brave Lyn to +2.

[Darj]

@Cow That Kinshinoka is great!

IDK about Kana with those boons. I read that it's akin to a green Female Corrin, so you could take some tips from her suggested builds. However, -Spd hurts a bit since it's one of her highest stats.

Maybe try to patch up her Res and keep Water Breath for a mixed tank?

So I was thinking about it at work and I might try and roll some more to see if I can get a better one

But interestingly I realized -Spd might be the way to go.

Cause I kind of want to try and get a second Hector eventually to give her Distant Counter and make her into a range killer.

Which might be best with +Res -Spd (maybe Def?)

Since with +Res she has

40 HP

33 Def

30 Res

Which seems like a good base to work with.

Might be able to do it with +HP but unsure.

 

Edit: Tried to roll again and ended up with +Res -HP Fallen Robin (M) which I think should be usable?

Also got another Kana but +HP -Res so I really don't know what to do about her

And cause ended up rolling a blue got a Shigure which was +Spd -HP

[Azure Wolf]

Decided to spend a few orbs on the Fates banner getting a +Spd/-Res Suicide which is great. Might 5* a Hana I have to give Life and Death, and inherit a Firesweep Lance I gave to Shanna as Shigure is a better player phase unit. May replace Normal Hinoka on my flier team as both H!Nowi and Minerva both have Hone Fliers, so having another way for defences go be boosted would be good. Fortify Fliers would be better but I haven't pulled a Caeda in a while so I would have to either toss my Tana or S!Corrin.
