Ike is really a fantastic free unit. If that was castling, then I violated no less than three of its rules right there. Yeah, a Swap or two would have been nice, but oh well. Agreed on Ike, I may or may not have voted for him for his free clear potential... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcsilas Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 @Zeo @mampfoid I mean now that I think about it, Deirdre can survive the Saias's super Glacies, but she needs Distant Defense to do so. Still I see that +Res and I just think of Ploys straight away haha Speaking of Glacies, maybe I should give my Fury Halloween Henry Glacies instead of Iceberg one day. 40 Res is really tempting.

LordFrigid Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 @mampfoid Staff damage penalty is truly the worst...that, and Wrys’ Atk is kinda sad to begin with. I had no idea on the “Rochade” meaning/translation; good to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnox Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 God, passing it on infernal was quite the challenge. I don't memorized my actual strategy, the only thing I remember is merging my free BIke, with one I've got in the last legendary banner (+att/-hp), giving my VIke swordbreaker in order to survive and kill the sword cavalier, and starting with each of them in opposite sides of the mid lake, in order for the green mounted mage attack BIke, and the sword cavalier attacks VIke. It was trial and error from there on. But it was satisfying to defeat a master tactician. Now I can feel myself worthy of Reinhardt's comparison XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time TA3 for Cherche, perhaps she didn't need the Savage Blow by Roy. Since killing Saias was the last action on Player Phase, I didn't switch off the battle animations afterwards, but I guess it doesn't hurt. It's always fun watching your Galeforce team in action. Good job! Are they your arena offense team too? Maybe Brave Roy will be on the next Legendary Banner. You going to try for more merges for him?

Saias' army's strategy and team composition was air-tight. Because of the tactics buffs and the Gronnblade mage (as well as Saias himself) and the map layout, there was no way for Matt to survive the initial attack the first enemy phase no matter where I set the team up on the map. So after a few failures, I realized I needed to take a different approach. And this is when the realization came that there's more to my team than just Matthew. Now, in nearly every stage clear I've done, Inigo has been strictly support. And where as Genny has had a few spots where she needed to tank or attack, or even a few cases where she shined along with Matthew, she, like Inigo is nearly always primarily support. Not here. For the first time, Genny stands at the heart of the strategy I needed in order to beat this one and Inigo stands by her side. They're the real stars here. Matthew and Ayra were bit players in comparison, crazy as that sounds. And while they did still fill crucial roles, frankly speaking, I could have swapped the two of them out with different units and still got the job done. But I couldn't have done it without Inigo and Genny. It really just cements the amazing synergy of this team and that any one of these units can shine bright under the right circumstances. Genny has been waiting for her chance to shine, and she finally did here. [VIDEO] Enjoy the show. It was enjoyable indeed~! Nice use of Gravity. I never would have thought of a strategy based on using that staff. Good job, nice video! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps I should have started to merge another blue unit than Cordelia, since I need her for Galeforce SI, but she deserves it. I have been very lucky with my Roy pulls so far, I never went specifically for merges and I don't think I'll ever get him to +10. The legendary banners are bad to snipe for one unit, the other red units have to be good as well to make me do some pulls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(My Azura will get Galeforce sooner or later). 2. Desperation + Brash Assault beats Wary Fighter! I used that combination so often on Valter, why didn't I think of it when I breaking my head on Zephiels map? 3. You beat the map even on Player Phase 1, I needed also Enemy Phase. 4. Where are the weird skills? DEF Ploy and Savage Blow are pretty useful for these kinds of clears. Roy needed the DEF buff. 5. Welcome aboard, congratulations!

I think Cordelia’s actually better for one-turns on PvE content (+1 Atk/-1 Spd compared to Tana, when PvE enemies tend to not have a ton of Spd), but Tana is awesome too. Well, you have to take 1 action to get Brash active, so it’s really only breaking one Wary Fighter (two with Sing/Dance, maybe), when Zephiel’s map has four. Maybe that was it? That’s the Caeda factor. Maybe it’s just the Arena-optimization tendency in me saying that. It just felt weird doing something like giving Def Ploy to a 22 Res unit. Thanks! I’ve got some catch-up work to do... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilda Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 @Zeo @mampfoid I remember back i coudlnt beat this on Infernal with the Askrtrio because none of the 3 units could tank the combo of red horsie + buffed gronnblade madness. Luckily the Weapon refine and Veronica make this one very simple to clear now. Askrtrio & Veronica vs Saias Infernal, Anna quest done. No Skill Inheritence, just Seals.

Punished Dayni Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 So, Saias tries to hold the river again. Saias fought himself with M!Robin, M!Morgan and Sonya (Yeah, I should have added F!Robin). Morgan tanks the sword and 1-rounds the mage with Spur Def/Res on Robin and a +1 Res seal (If he wasn't -Def...), while the others move in. Morgan takes out the cav, Saias waits for himself and Robin distracts destroys the archer. Saias finishes himself on player phase, the flier moves in and eventually in range of Saias's ploy for M!Robin to 1-round. Askrtrio cleared with Canas. CC Canas doesn't get to 1-round the sword cav, but 1-shotting the mage with a Luna helps to clear things up. Saias and the rest are in a line around the liddle lake, allowing me to easily divide them for Anna to wreck Saias, Sharena to beat the mage and Canas to break the archer. My original plan was to have Alfonse tank the mage and sword, but that didn't pan out for reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garlyle Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Oh, a GHB from my early months when I didn't even bother with Infernal difficulty. That means I can go fetch myself a 4* and a 3* copy at home. And motivational 4 orbs on missions. I'm going to have fun with GC and GHB tonight.

Diovani Bressan Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Five easy quests. I didn't have any problem with Saias defeating Saias quests. Thanks to Fury and Marth's Refined Falchion + Drive Atk + Drive Spd, my Saias destroyed enemy Saias. Anna's quests were easy too! Easy 4 orbs and a 3* copy of the Bishop of Flame, which already become a Combat Manual. I used the orbs in the Múspell banner, but no General for me yet. At least I got 2 copies of Soren, so now +8 Soren is possible (once I have enough feathers). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mampfoid Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 @Hilda That was nice, I already thought you would let Alfonse tank the first attacks. A bulky red TA unit is perfect for the job. Also Anna's Astra came into play to finish the armor. Nobody should complain anymore about the free units we've got. Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mampfoid Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Cant edit my post anymore. Since I've done my One-Turn Clear already months ago, here Celica's and Oliver's clears: @Zeo @mcsilas I tried something new with the music, I hope it's not too extreme. @Nanima @kirauza343 @SatsumaFSoysoy I gave Celica her merges, but OG Celica #2 is save since the next merge wouldn't raise ATK or SPD. This clear was fun, I had to switch some skills. FH!Celica needed Close Def 3, TA2 (good that I always raise Selena to 4* before inheriting Reposition), double Spur DEF 3 (vanilla on OG Celica) and Drive DEF 2 to survive the initial attack. OG Celica needed Fortify RES to survive the counter of the green mage. BH!Celica (I really should pick some nicknames) had to proc GF and move up to lure the Archer. Music is from the Starific mobile game and is available on soundcloud. . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Oliver now knows how to panic enemy mages: This was tricky. First I had to help Stahl to survive the inital attacks (panic the mage), then Takumi had to ploy the archer to make Oliver tank his Brave attack. Music is Buongiorno a te by Luciano Pavarotti.

Cute Chao Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I managed to do all the quests by myself, which made me feel quite proud, since I usually get bored quickly and go for guides. This time, though, I decided to stick at it since I had an idea of what to do. Infantry Team: A!Tiki, Shiro, Lyon, Sonya It took a little while to get on this team. I kept trying different red mages before finally remembering that A!Tiki has absurd defence and distant counter, especially since I've given her the defence refine on her original weapon before Breath of Fog was a thing. The rest kinda fell into place From there, I figured out Anna could easily replace Sonya, since my Lyon has Reposition, so she could dart in to kill Saias and get out of there again. Saias took a bit more doing. That stupid Chill Res kept taking him down so he kept getting ployed by Evil!Saias so I had to work round it. QR and an attack boost by Lyon, as well as some careful positioning, finally did the trick. No one else laid damage on Evil!Saias. He took down himself :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
