that's really good strategy, means you've got not only an orb stash but grail and feather stashes too :3 hopefully we'll get exciting new units

I really wish IS would just release more original units even if that means putting them in the 3/4 star pull like they did with Benny. Surely, with the profits they're making, they can whip out more characters but it feels like they only care about that maximising profit margin. :l

ooh, congrats! c: the new GHB is so boring art-wise, too, and idek what is going on with his hands, awkward

also I wanted to share one of my favorite summoner greetings I've seen in my feh castle .. Hello powercreep!

It gets me every time. xD

- for all my apathy I pulled literally nothing but 3s units. Thankfully one of them was Ilyana, so now she's up to +9!

- Hellooo powercreep indeed! That's great.

The more I use Balthus, the more I want to +10 him. He's kind of like a substitute Vaike combined with Saber in my brain lol. must. wait. it. out.

- Passively build him as you summon him? Kinda like what I'm doing with Lex. He's got good stats, I don't think you'd be disappointed with building him. He's 3-4s pool, so (hopefully) no need to break the bank summoning for him specifically.

Oh My gawd! Hrid is sooooo outclassed OTL I'm trying to use him as my bonus unit for arena and he can't kill sht, and can't take a hit for sht. He was SO GOOD when he first came out. Leg Redux when? Am I'm going to have to switch to Anna to get my bonus kills this week?? Come on Hrid!

omg i knooooow, I used Hrid to do my cavalry training tower quests and that was difficult enough! The man could really use a new paintjob.

Fortunately I've levelled Scion Nanna to 40 since I found my staff roster a bit lacking and Staff of Twelve is quite good for stuff like Mjölnir's Strike.

- Yeah, I could use Nanna or Fiora instead, might have to. OTL But I wanted to use Hrid, cus Hrid!

Ah… I had saved 260 orbs for the remix. I spent 210 and I came away with one Duessel and one Ryouma (not including spark). I can’t help but feel pretty sad about that :( while I wasn’t expecting to get the +10, I wasnt picky with my orb colours so getting so little kinda sucks. At least Ryouma is +7 now but it’s so long before he is re-run again…

Banner is here for a couple of weeks so I might save a bit more and go back in before it ends.

(Sorry just needed to whine)

- Boo, that sucks :( That is a lot of orbs for only 2 5s units. My friend who has all the Ryoumas at +10 spent upwards of $200 each time his banners came around to get all the copies she needed. (I, for one, can't imagine being that obsessed with a fictional character that I would be willing to spend almost a thousand dollars to get fancy pixels of them that don't even have any physical value, but each to their own) I think you are doing pretty well with +7!

oh noo that sucks! :( you'd think 6% would yield some better drops. if i recall you were looking forward to this banner, too.

i only used my free summon for the legendary remix banner, even though i quite like l!ryoma. after caving in an getting constance to come home i'm down to 175 orbs and i almost always want the new mythic/legendary hero that drops at the end of the month.

- Should have taken your luck as a warning, I decided to go for something... anything, from the remix banner, so far have nothing to show for it but a 7.75% pity rate. I got a +att Lex, that's about the only worthwhile thing. Not even a 4s special OTL.

oh man, that sucks D: I wish you guys better luck ;3;

I’m sorry my luck for this banner rubbed off on you :C i hope you got something at least. Congrats on Lex, I’d like to build him sometime but a lot of the newer demotes just don’t come home for me.

- thanks guys :3 I was super excited for this banner so it did sting a little. I went back in (against better judgement) and managed to get another Ryoma and a Hrid so it wasn’t a complete bust in the end but it’s still an easy 300+ orbs I spent.

This morning I got a free Mareeta from the vg banner… that was pretty neat. She’s going to be fodder… just need to decide on who.

- Mareeta is good fodder. I didn't even get any red orbs to try and summon for Igrene. OTL I summoned a few more times on the remix banner with HoF orbs, and now I have nothing to show but an 8.25% pity rate OTL

8.25... dang, that's cold D: IS is being frosty!!

congrats on another copy of Ryoma, I'm sorry it wasn't a better pulling banner ;3;

- Right? I'm almost at the spark, and nada OTL

I'm not sure I can keep playing this game OTL I had 250 aether energy this morning and didn't win A SINGLE AR. Also had to use a crest to win 2 arena duels for the feathers. I dunno if my desire for a tiny army of FE characters can keep up with this insane constant power creep.

I hear you on the lack of motivation. I used to comfortably stay within tier 21 for arena and now I'm fighting for tier 17 or 18. :l I'm down to tier 18 in AR and making sure I don't drop is a hassle.

I upgraded my 4 star Benny to 5 and fed him dragonflowers and he's got higher def and res than my +10 (I think gen1 armour) Effie like okay.. xD Even though he won't be anywhere near her atk even with buffs, it just kind of sucks. :'D (but yay for Benny for being the epitome of I protect)

yes I feel you on the power creep! I just tried to up my score before the season ends and getting a deathless run was impossible. Enemy units feel indestructible at the moment.

- I spent SO MANY crests this week to get a deathless run. Finally got one, but I missed getting some bonus kills, cus I'm using Nanna as my bonus unit, she can't do very much damage. I've encountered so many Airzura + Brave Eirika/Crusader Leif/Alm And their range + canto + dance is just IMPOSSIBLE to deal with! And stupid Leif/Alm's Miracle eff. makes him really hard to kill before he wipes out my whole team.

it's sad but my new AR offensive team is just the most power crept units I have, I think I have one +10 in there, the rest are just one copy of some good unit :'D /cry

the only reason I'm promoted to tier 19 in arena this week is because I used duo Leif as my arena bonus unit and he really annihilates a good chunk of the competition, maybe I need to change my permanent arena team too T_T

- Yeah, I should probably change up my AR offence. Neither season has a counter for edelgards, or leg claudes, or any of the brave units. Duo Lief is an insane unit, between his prf special and canto, and stupid miracle, he's a great sweeper. I just didn't care enough about any of the units on this banner to pull. Definitely feeling some burnout. I don't want to pull for any of these new units, let alone build them, even if they are stupid broken.
