I'm still trying on the Halloween banner.  499 total summoned units. Send help.

Spoiler

Once again, one of these things is not like the others!

For boons/banes:

Spoiler

Donnel (+Atk/-HP): I think he got the hint, after I turned another one of his instances into Brave Lance fodder for Luke.  This one's worth keeping~!
Nino (+Spd/-Def): This is excellent, but alas, I already have an equally excellent 5* version of her (also +Spd/-Tank).
Priscilla (+Def/-Spd): WHO WANTS REHABILITATE?
Merric (+Def/-HP): On one hand, that's funny.  On the other hand, Boey exists.  So yeah. . .
Tharja (+Atk/-Spd): It's an improvement over the first -Spd one. . .but what the fuck am I supposed to do with her?  Slap an -owl on her and call it a day?  37 Spd on attack isn't why she's threatening.  I'd rather build up Raigh, TBH.

I guess a better Tharja makes it worth it?

Honestly, you're probably best off just foddering less than perfect Tharjas. (Red's the only -blade tome that's not available at 3*, so, yeah, I'd use a Tharja that's better than neutral, but I wouldn't promote one to 5* unless a near perfect one shows up. Except for foddering purposes, I mean, I'd still promote non-perfect Tharjas for those.)

 

That said, should probably wait just a bit for the new blacksmith or weapon enhancement or whatever we want to call the weapon upgrade feature to come in, maybe non-tomes would finally get a few days in the limelight.

(I might sound tierist as hell most of the time, but it's not like I don't prefer to use units that I like... who are also high tiered.)

Regarding Nino, if your 5* one is -Res I'd suggest merging into this one. (Her matchups vs. Rein is shaky enough already, she's fine as a offensive unit, of course, but it never hurts to grab another check for just a slight IV shift.) Unless by 'tank' you strictly mean defense.

 

Also, I don't know why, but I like Priscilla's art a lot.

*cries with tears of joy* I had been wanting to pull for a while. It's not the Dawn Brigade, but Mia's in my top 5 favorite Tellius characters, so I was definitely ready to spend orbs on her. Got her within 70 with no pity breakers. :3 And she's +DEF -RES! Gives her some respectable bulk kind of like Arya without killing the best parts about her. I've been keeping around Swift Sparrow fodder for an occasion like this. :3

Now to do story chapters and build up my stock pile again.

New banner time. I'll be happy with any of the focus units, so let's go!

  1. 3* Raigh: Darn.
  2. 4* Hawkeye: Wrong FE7 axe user. He can't even give Death Blow 3...
  3. 4* Mae: Already have you at 5*. Guess you're Draw Back fodder.
  4. 3* Subaki: Meh.
  5. 4* Est: No thanks.

Let's go again. I like these characters and they're very powerful, so I can ignore the obvious powercreep for now.

  1. 3* Olivia: Maybe Hone Atk 3 fodder.
  2. 3* Lon'qu: I've been short of Vantage fodder.
  3. 5* Mia: Boom! There we go! She's honestly the character I wanted least from this banner since I have a glut of swords, not to mention I can't stand her voice, but her IVs are freaking outstanding, so that doesn't matter. +Spd/-Def makes her a little bit too vulnerable to lances for my liking, but that 43 Speed is absolutely godly. I can already see her being a monster with Desperation and Moonbow.

The other 2 orbs were grey, so no point there. 28 orbs for a fantastic unit, even if Mia is a swordie, is well worth it in my book, especially after the Geneaology and TT banners were miserable failures. Not to mention Lute and Dorcas don't seem all that good stat-wise, even if their skills are great.

I decided to spend 50 orbs on the new banner even if I didn’t really need or want anything from it. I got a 5* +Spd -Atk Soren for my troubles.  If I was going to bladetome him I’d be ok, but this does make 5 out of my last 10 5-Star units as -Atk.  Maybe a -raven build?

The three Bartres and one Cain were far more exciting to refill my fodder stores.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! That's a scream of happiness, for the record.

She also happened to be the free pull, so now my free pull 5* total is 3. She's just +Def/-HP, but I'm more than fine with that as even getting her with my free pull in the first place shattered my expectations. I also take this as the game making it up to me for my now 4.25% and still going rate on the Death Blow banner with no Elincia to show for it. Throwing a Klein in there was certainly a nice bonus as well.

I had a foolish hope that I would get Mia in just three summons again, but that did not become reality. Just got a 4-star Palla, a 4-star Seliph, a 3-star Palla, and for the two times there were no reds, I got 4-star Cordelia and 3-star Oboro. Seliph, Oboro, and 4-star Palla were sent home (bad boon/bane for all of them, although I was an idiot and forgot how good Palla is for fodder), but the 3-star Palla is +Spd/-Res, which is exactly what I've been hoping for! Shame she's 3-star, but she will be kept for sure. Cordelia is a garbage +Res/-Spd version, but I have a use for her 5-star skills, so she's being kept for now.

I'll be pulling on this banner until I get Mia, and then I'm completely done until the Legendary Hero banner. I need Hector, I need Deirdre, and I need a tome flier who isn't Nowi, so I'm setting my sights on greens once that begins. Celica, Ayra, and Ike would all be nice too, so reds are next if I get everything I want from greens.

How do you know her IVs? I got Mia too but I can't find her base stats anywhere.

I don't know about Soren but in 5*+10 tier (top tier 20), -ATK+SPD is one of Nino's most desirable natures. You aren't gonna miss any kills from -3 ATK thanks to -Blade tome as long as you can double.

I had 144 orbs. Was sniping for reds and blues. Got a garbage Tana (at least I have a good one already so merge it is then), a def bane res boon Ninian (yeaaahaaaah), a few 4 star Oscars (which is great cause I kinda wanted him in his banner, but lacked the orbs and courage), Hinatas (fury fodder). Then bought a 23 orb pack in euros. Got a neutral Mia. Then bought another 23 orb pack and got a attack boon def bane Lute. Though I did get a lot of Tatianas. Any idea what to do with them?

Was hoping to get Lute, since she's one of my favorite characters from Sacred Stones.

Suffice to say, I think Reinhardt got nervous about getting replaced as my blue mage, because he showed up instead lol. Don't worry man, I still like you too.

Unfortunately, no Lute yet. Oh well.

The previous +Res/-Spd Tharja gave her tome to a +Spd Raigh.

Current 5* Nino is +Spd/-HP, so. . .more feathers, here I come. ;/

Thanks, though~!

Now up to 509 pulled units.  I couldn't resist.

The irony is that Mia's the one I don't want. Go figure.

As for boons/banes:

Spoiler

Est (+Res/-Atk): Bad nature on a unit that only fodders one skill.  Go figure.
Cain (+Def/-Spd): This is. . .interesting.  He won't necessarily hit harder with a Brave Sword, but 31 Defense on a Brave user means that I can slap Bonfire on him and call it a day.  He also doesn't mind the Brave Sword, since he'd shank his own Speed.
Cain (+Def/-Res): You, on the other hand, make great Wings of Mercy fodder.
Azama (+Spd/-HP): Merge fodder.  I will have my +10 Azama soon enough!
Serra (+HP/-Def): I think I have a merge going on with her or something.

Gaius (+Atk/-Spd): Even if a Brave dagger existed, his base Atk is too low to warrant it.
Tiki (+HP/-Def): Speaking of Bonfire fodder. . .
Felicia (+Spd/-Def): Uhhh. . .if I don't have a good +Atk one, she'll do.  I think.
Selena (+Def/-Spd): Thank goodness Reposition is a good inheritance skill!
Lon'qu (+Atk/-Def): I've lost count of the number of godly Lon'qus I've pulled.  He's right up there with Gordin and Virion!

Lots of merge fodder, some good SI fodder, and Lon'qu.  It works, I guess.

Had about 30 orbs, and I put them all towards reds, hoping to pull Mia. Curiously, I pulled a pity-breaker Brave Roy, which is pretty cool, since I didn't have him. But this is the wrong CYL banner Roy!

Then I gathered a few orbs from the new paralogue... and, well, Mia came to me! Yes! The nature isn't optimal, it's +HP/-Spd. Oh well, I can live with that. Spd seems to be my most common bane.
