A new event is coming soon in Fire Emblem Heroes! A special, smaller version of the Tempest Trials is about to begin: Tempest Trials Mini: To Die on the Battlefield. The title is likely a reference to Hector from Blazing Sword, as he accepts his fate to die in battle when he chooses to claim the legendary axe Armads.

A new Summoning Focus for the Trials is already available! In this banner, you can summon 5★ versions of important characters from Blazing Sword: Eliwood, Hector, Lyn, and Ninian.

As expected, all four of these characters will be 40% Bonus Allies within the Tempest Trials themselves. Ursula, Lloyd, Masked Lucina, and Anna will also be available for use as 20% Bonus Allies.

Additionally, Heroes has shared some further news about the Mini Tempest Trials and what changes we can expect. The event will run for a shorter period of time than previous Trials, and rewards will be easier to earn. At least some rewards will also be repeats from previous events. For example, you can earn a 5★ Masked Lucina at 15,000 points.

Tempest Trials Mini: To Die on the Battlefield starts this Friday, 8 September, and lasts only a single week. Both the event and its associated banner will end on 15 September at 6:59am UTC.
