Florete Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Suddenly we're actually getting Grand Hero battles again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NekoKnight Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Could it be Myrrh's time to shine? Hone Dragons come at last? I'm happy for another mini, anyway. TT is a good way to grind HM and SP but I like getting it done with in shorter time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korath88 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Given the placement of these events, I assume we're getting a 3 unit SS banner, Lyon GHB and a fifth SS character as the TT mini reward please don't be Marth again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C. Turtle Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I hope the Tempest is Sacred Stones. Even if I fail to obtain any of the banner characters associated with the Tempest, I have enough SS characters trained up that I should at least have a 20% bonus. The title doesn't really give anything away, but considering both Lyon and Valter are being rerun then, I'm going with the assumption that it is. As for the bonus unit, while I would prefer a new unit, if only because more Sacred Stones is never a bad thing, I wouldn't mind if they did a repeat unit like the first Mini, if only because Tobin is still the only TT unit I'm missing. Although maybe if they do a repeat for this one, they'll do Joshua because SS, like how Marth*DeMasque was repeated for the Awakening Christmas tempest. In that case, new unit please. Either way, I'm just glad they've taken our feedback after the whole Christmas Tempest debacle. The Tempest is still a slog to get through, but at least the minis are a slog for a smaller amount of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecrimsonflash Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 (edited) I'm gonna call it right here. Dussel Myrrh L'arachel all are plot relevant, all offer something that we don't have a ton of, and none would be complained about and all are ephraim's love interests. and ewan or ross as as a TT reward. or masked marth edit: given that we have no real precedent for tempest trial minis with new units as the focus there is not anything to go off of for whether we get marth or something new, the new years TTm was a seasonal, so it could be a one time thing (new TTm unit), and the original TTm was centered around units already in the game guess we will have an answer to this question that no one asked on the 23rd.

Alexmender Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I bet the new SS characters+TT reward are going to be the 40% bonus while Eirika, Ephraim and Lyon are going to be the 20%, could the 4th bonus be an Askr trio member? Or will it be one of Lute/Tana/Innes/Amelia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember, the first Tempest Mini had both Blazing Blade GHB characters as 20%, and Valter is being rerun during the Tempest. Although that might cause complications with the associated banner, since they can't just make the banner the 40% characters like the first Tempest Mini, so maybe not.

mampfoid Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Wow, not even 1 week break between the Mini-TTs? Better than a VG though (I don't see any VG scheduled btw.). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zangetsu Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 It would be nice if they gave us a manakete as the reward unit. I mean they gave someone as ridiculously good as BK so why not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice Dragon Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I would rather Myrrh not be a reward character. The lack of access to merges makes it difficult to use such characters in the high Arena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's pass time you guys get more rep. 34 minutes ago, Ice Dragon said: I would rather Myrrh not be a reward character.

That being said merging units always looks like another tier of how you want to play the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkaid Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Hopefully they'll stick with putting the TT reward as a 40% bonus again. If not, maybe Lyon. I'm unfamiliar with Sacred Stones and I don't intent to pull on the new banner, so it'll be a relief if last 40% unit being a free one remains a trend. I'm guessing Eirika, Ephraim, Innes/Tana and maybe an Askr unit will be the 20%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Mage Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Considering Lyon’s GHB, it’s likely that this will be SS-themed, but thr name confuses. Say, what’s the japanese name of this Tempest Trial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hoped for Myrrh on the 1st SS banner. She is so needed. Dragons in general are way too scarce, and Fae can't keep going on as the only green dragon. I'm hoping Myrrh gets the special unit boosted BST as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redlight Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Isn't it alluding to Lyon's summoning abilities? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Shogi Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 (edited) TT Mini's Japanese name is あなたを信じます, which means "I/I'll trust you," not 倍じます, which isn't a word. No idea who the boss is but I'm guessing it's SS themed since Lyon is available as GHB before the TT starts. Arvis was a bonus unit in the Holy War TT so I'm thinking they'll do something similar.
