New question: So I have a +SPD -HP Oscar. His defense is ok enough for a Bonfire, but not great. I mean, he can take on the Black Knight mano-a-mano. I went on gamepress and looked at the top specials people put on him and they are all offensive skills. That's fine and all, but his defenses are just so low that I was thinking he might fare better with a defensive special like Escutcheon or Pavise. So between the two, which do you think would be better on Oscar? I am thinking with his high speed, Pavise might be able to process nearly as often as Escutcheon. I'm running Sapphire+, so I wouldn't intentionally be facing axe users like Hec. Mages and now users are still a threat no matter the color, so those anti-range skills might be worthwhile too, but since he is a melee unit, I think melee defense is better... Or would an offensive skill still be better?

The Quickened Pulse skill is awesome in Tempest! It reduces your skill count by 1 each battle, so over the course of the trial that's up to 6 (or 7?) charges! If you ran one of the AOE 5 charge skills and just hold back every fight, by the time you get to the last trial it will be fully charged - and you didn't do anything!

so you are saying that running a team full of level 1-3 units on insane difficulty would net me, say, only 150 points while a level 40 team on insane would net me 500 points?

It occurred to me, what with merging allies allowing you to carry over learned skills, that if you built up a crappy nature hero to full skill set, then merged said crappy nature hero with another crappy nature hero, you could run low-level arenas with fully buffed units while your opponents would likely still have no skills on them at all (except maybe in Insane). Then when your team starts to get too strong after leveling up too much, you merge across to another crappy nature hero and repeat. Depending on how the Insane mechanics are handled, you could potentially crush nearly any team you went up against simply because your team would have full skill sets out of the gate while the opponents would likely only have their starter skills. But then my question is would it be worth it? Would you still get the same points from a low-level Insane arena stomp as you would from a level 40 Insane arena stomp (assuming you could pull that off routinely)? Or is there a significant hit to points awarded based on opponent level?

Yeah, after I posted this I thought about Savage Blow. I think that's what I'll go with just because I have a spare. I should already have ways of getting her out of harm's way if need be.

What B skill to put on Faye? If I keep her Firesweep, then her role becomes that of a poker/peeler, so I was thinking Poison Strike to help peel. But then I was looking through my heroes and thought about Bow Breaker to make her a Takumi/Klein counter instead. I mean, that is a bit two specific of a role for my tastes, but against any bow user she would not have to worry about her horrible speed. plus if I swap out her noontime for something else, then she could activate her special a lot faster if there was a bow user on the enemy team. unless you guys have another idea. also, I can't keep her C skill forever, so what would be a good C skill for her? Aura buff? Aura debuff? Something else?

I know the wording is different, so I am inclined to think the answer to this question is no anyway. But, I figured I would ask because maybe someone else tried it out already. If you gave someone like Azama Breath of Life in addition to his Earth Balm, would Breath of Life proc Earth Balm when he attacks?

Want to give a B skill to Sanaki. currently with my roster my best choices I think are poison strike or Brash assault. what should I give her? Or should I hold out for something else?

If you forget to log in one day, when does the daily login bonus refresh? Or does it ever? (I just got an event bonus and not a login bonus when I logged in. I forgot to log in yesterday.)

I've seen Roy with Drag Back and Sheena with Triangle Adept. My Roy and Sheena don't have those. So do NPCs have their own skill sets?
