It’s the weekend and I’d rather be in bed, but here, have another Fire Emblem Heroes news update!
Top of the news post today is the reappearance of Kana, in the Grand Hero Battle Revival – Kana: Dragon Spawn. If you missed out on obtaining any copies of him during his original run, here’s your opportunity to grab him. Defeating Hard difficulty will net you a 3-Star Kana, while Lunatic and Infernal difficulties both grant a 4-Star Kana each. Completing Infernal gives you an additional 2,000 Feathers.
Since this is a GHB Revival, there are now Quests available where you may earn Orbs and 3-Star Kana for completing them! This GHB Revival ends on the 18th of October, 6:59AM UTC. Claw up all the rewards before time runs out.
Next Arena season’s bonus Heroes have been revealed. They include: Legendary Young Tiki, Halloween Kagero, Halloween Myrrh, Halloween Mia, Halloween Niles, Halloween Dorcas (upcoming Tempest Trials+ reward), Saias, Legion, Lon’Qu, and Alfonse.
Raise any Bonus Heroes you may have and defeat enemies with them to earn up to 60 extra Arena points to your total Arena score (3 points per enemy defeated with a Bonus Hero).
Heroic Feats Round 1 was successful: We hit 12,639,853 points out of the needed 10,000,000, so every player receives a free 4-Star Hinata: Wild Samurai!
The reward disappears on the 27th of October, 6:59AM UTC, so make sure you log in between now and then to pick him up.
With that, Round 2 of Heroic Feats begins today! This time, we must all use Mage-type Heroes a total of 30 million times between now and the 17th of October, 6:59AM UTC to obtain a copy of 4-Star Berkut: Prideful Prince! The final 24 hours of the event will grant double points for every Mage-type Hero used!
This rather mad lad is normally GHB-exclusive, so this is the perfect opportunity to get yourself an extra copy for merges, or for his elusive Resistance-granting Spear. I think I know what new weapon my Effie,s getting!
Wave goodbye to Rival Domains for the time being, because Relay Defense is back! Rejoice! Use all 20 Heroes in a Brigade to defend your Fortress and Camps. It will be active from today and will disappear on the 27th of October, 6:59AM UTC.
The devs have made some changes to the game mode since its original iteration:
- Relay Defense now costs zero stamina to play, and
- Difficulty has been adjusted.
There were many complaints during the original Relay Defense about how the difficulty ramps up exponentially. Hopefully this has been addressed so we won’t have to rely on ridiculous chokepoint strats to survive this time. Chances are we will probably will still need the help of those highly sought-after f2p guides.
That’s it for today, and remember to field all the mages.
