June 26, 2018 FE Heroes, News 4 comments

Prepare yourselves! As Tempest Trials+ winds down in Fire Emblem Heroes, a new event begins! Assemble your strongest brigades and take part in the 4th Grand Conquests.

Like previous Grand Conquests, participating players will be placed in one of three possible teams throughout numerous Outrealms. Vie for territory against the other two teams; the more areas your team owns at the end of the round, the more Arena Medals and Hero Feathers you earn! The location for the battles this time is the continent of Valentia.

Remember, quests for each round offer a variety of rewards, so be sure to complete them! Advancing your GC Tier will also net you Orbs, Badges, Refining Stones, and Sacred Coins, making it well worth your while to participate.

Each round will last two days, with a total of three rounds. The final round of Grand Conquests will conclude Sunday, 1 July.

On another note, Version 2.6.1 has started rolling out today. This revision fixes a bug with Infantry Rush affecting enemy units. To apologize for any inconvenience, compensation Orbs will be provided starting 28 June.
