Røkkr Sieges has begun!

Røkkr Sieges is now live!

There are a number of changes since the previous RS:

  • World Damage Rewards: Earn extra feathers each round by reaching damage goals together with other players in your World.
  • Damage to kkr Rewards: Earn new accessories by dealing a high amount of damage to a Røkkr in a single attempt.
  • Number of Røkkr each battle: Reduced to 2 per battle.

Accessory rewards are called Remnant accessories. You can view these rewards in the “Check Rewards” menu. Aside from these, everything else is the same as usual.

Røkkr Sieges will have 3 rounds, each being 2 days long, and will come to an end on the 30th of September, 6:59am UTC.

Cipher Series 18 Pre-Release Livestream: New Cards & Art for Upcoming Sets!

Ryota Kawade and Kubocchan held the exciting Fire Emblem Cipher Series 18 Pre-Release Livestream this past Saturday! Hibiku Yamamura (voice of Rinea and Shade) and Yusuke Kobayashi (voice of M!Byleth) joined them for a fun couple hours of news and pack opening.

The main focus of this stream was to show off cards from Series 18, Oratorio of Embarkation, which releases later this week! The set features characters from Three Houses, Awakening and The Sacred Stones.

We also got to see this set’s Tournament Promo cards and a sneak peak of some art from upcoming sets. Read More below to check it all out!

Correction: Originally I posted some untrue information about a few rarities of cards in this set. These mistakes are now corrected. Sorry for any inconvenience!

Fan Feats: Fire Emblem Planner, a big planner with a ton of sides that would compliment any fan’s setup. Preorders open until October 1 or sold-out.

In an attempt to make up for my sorely disappointing previous attempt of promoting impressive fan projects in the past, I’m taking this time to reassess my approach, and have decided to kick off a fan work appreciation series, of which I’m coining as Fan Feats. Kicking off this Fan Feats appreciation and awareness series will be the Fire Emblem Planner, also going by FEH Planner.

This planner contains a beautiful assortment of monthly illustrations, and comes with an optional leather cover, depending on your purchased bundle. It’s a 160+ page [A5 size] planner, with weekly and monthly features (as well as others, such as notes pages, fun themed pages and artist credit pages).

I’ve had a chance to sneak-peek at some of the artwork, and every page is downright gorgeous, themed appropriately for the month and compliments with the alternate merchandise perfectly.

Heroes: Astram Grand Hero Battle is now live!

Today’s FE Heroes update brings us Astram: Midia’s Hero from Mystery of the Emblem as a Grand Hero Battle reward!

This GHB begins today, and is available until the 3rd of October, 6:59am UTC. Rewards for completing all three difficulties is three copies of Astram (1 x 3-Star, 2 x 4-Star) and 2,000 Feathers.

Astram is yet another sword infantry unit, but has some pretty great stats at 5-Stars, level 40 which potentially put him above many other sword infantry reward units: 44 HP, 35 Atk, 36 Spd, 36 Def, 21 Res – 172 BST, which is joint-highest BST for sword infantry in the game, right next to Brave Alm.

On top of that, he comes with the Prf weapon Mercurius, with a description as follows: Grants Atk+3. At start of turn, if unit’s HP ≥ 50%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+4 to unit and sword, lance, axe, bow, dagger, or beast allies within 2 spaces for 1 turn (Bonus granted to unit even if no allies are within 2 spaces.). He also comes with Bonfire (at 4-Stars), Wind Boost 3 (at 4-Stars), and Wrath 3 (at 5-Stars).

If you choose to merge him up, he will receive +2 HP, +2 Atk, and +1 Spd upon his first merge.

To sum up, as long as he is at 50% HP or above and has been merged once, he will have 46 HP, 60 Atk, 41 Spd, 40 Def, and 25 Res in combat. That’s not something to sleep on.
