Obstruct is Verdant, Res Ploy is Transparent. I don't quite have Def Tactic yet, but I bet it'll also be Verdant since that's the type all the other Defense related seals use.

Humanoid Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I lied. I decided to promote Robin after all. After all, how can I promote Chrom if I can't promote myself? With HM gains on 3-4 units plus the next two feather rewards from TT I can promote both her and Lucius and level them both via TT. Caeda can wait a week instead and potentially get levelled alongside any new units I get from the seasonal banner (boy is that tempting fate). And Mae, who was next in line, is not a unit I'd use much anyway so that promotion can be held off indefinitely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t have too many blade mages. I promoted my Spd/Res Mae exactly because of this reasoning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is +atk, and while another blade mage would be useful, I have +spd Tailtiu and +1 Neutral Summer Corrin as my designated blades already, and I have one of Linde or Delthea which I can convert into an additional one. Ursula too if I ever get around to it. (Also a -atk Bride Caeda but meh) I was thinking about using Mae as a specialist tomebreaker instead mainly for use in AA, but I'm undecided on red or blue.

I’m thinking to convert her into Drive Spd for Sharena. Ahem. Among these, I only have Ursula and Mae, and both are doing their best at blading stuff into the ground. Also Mae has amazing (amaezing?) voice acting, so that’s a plus in her favour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdgj1994 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) I hope I’m not the only one experiencing this, but the enemies I encounter are such hard counters to my team, no matter who is in it, I’m calling bs at this point. So you want to use Gerome and F!Robin to get the bonus? Here, have some Ruby Sword users. Oh so you want to counter that with Legendary Ephraim? Have a Rhajat! Oh as well as a Leo that you have to bait. I would use others but I want to balance between bonus units and favourites otherwise its more of a chore to do. But if the game just keeps pulling this bs on me I don’t even want to continue. Edited March 16, 2018 by sdgj1994 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, use counters like archers, wolf tomes and such. My last 2 top difficulty runs have been A in both survival and speed so it might have done the trick. I'm not exactly sure how the TT system chooses your opponents, but I think it's likely that it wants to counter your team since it has predetermined units to select from.

I’m so sick of the game cheating, why the devs can’t make it fair I have no idea. It's supposed to be challenging. While Heroes can be fun it doesn't stray from it's roots in the fact that it wants to provide a tactical challenge with GHBs, BHBs and such. It's actually being helpful (like Chrom) in the fact that it forces you to build better teams and builds. You're forced to make a team that can take on any threat. I can understand your frustrations and where you're coming from, but trust me in what I have to say. In the end it'll help you reach greater heights.

But there's no point doing any of it if I don't feel good about it while doing it, it makes the reward feel less desirable and worth doing. I suck at all the hard stuff like Infernal GHBs and usually I can never complete them without a guide, and even then sometimes I still fail because of differing IVs and merges that affect the AI movement. At the end of the day I just want to have a good time building and using the units I like. With GHBs as long as I can clear the Hard difficulty I'm happy because then I at least have one copy of the Hero on offer, and that's better than no copies at all. Whether I invest in them fully or not is up to me. TTs have never really been too much of an issue up until now. But maybe today I just need to set it aside.

That's a good idea, the problem with TTs is that they're very repetitive. Something I do when to mix things up is drop down a difficulty level. Even if you're getting less points, the satisfaction of getting a perfect run makes it more fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the clear up It has certainly come a long way but I wouldn't call it precise. @Ice Dragon It has been a while since I have really looked at Gamepedia's Tier List. I suppose my biggest issue with it right now is the inconsistency it has with it's own criteria. My personal dislike for it comes from the fact that is based entirely on how well the units are able to kill things with a heavy emphasis on the player phase. As for this TT, day 1 closed with just over 16k. I'm going on vacation with 2 or 3 days left of this so I want to get my score as high as possible before then. 10,000 feathers would be nice, but I would be happy with the 8,000 feather reward as well. I just need to put in a couple 50k days and I should be set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to struggle with different teams for that, and it got boring and repetitive once Reinhardt and Xander (the only two I seem to be able to do it with) capped HM. Nowadays, I run Lunatic 5 (occasionally 7 for the bonus rounds but not always) and just make my goal 8k. It's easily doable, leaves you with leftover stamina if you want to do something else (not much, mind) and gets you all of the rewards. I'm not the best at this game, and I like to use the units I like (don't we all), so I hope this helps in some way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So even if you have to use a unit with capped HM, Lunatic-7 will be more efficient from that standpoint. You also get more points even if you go all the way to your 4th team so Lunatic-7 in more efficient from a stamina standpoint as well. If I am playing manually I always try to do Lunatic-7. It's only when I am doing other things (or just don't feel like thinking) that I will do auto-battles on Lunatic-5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
