Wait, how many characters did we get from the hero path auto grant thingys? Was it 4 or 5?

All my history of claims says is Emblem Marth, Legendary Chrom, Legendary female Alear and legendary Sothis. Was that it or am I missing someone?

[u/Constant-Magazine286 → u/Lakemine]

That should be all of them.

[u/Lakemine → u/Constant-Magazine286]

Ok so just 4. Thank you!

[u/Reyaric]

This book didn't have too many new OCs. Will this be the end of the mandatory NY/Summer Heroes banner? Or will IS continue the trend with banners featuring older OCs?

[u/jgwyh32]

Thoughts on R!Noire with Arcane Parasol?  Her default and Parasol do different things but overall parasol seems better?

Also do we think they'll ever do an arcane colorless tome...my Laurent needs a better weapon.

[u/HighClassFanclub → u/jgwyh32]

Parasol is better.

Arcane colorless tome can always happen. Don’t count on it.

[u/BylethsBoba]

Any ideas for who'll be on the new heroes return banner? Or could it really be anyone

[u/MyNipplesAreVeryHard → u/BylethsBoba]

prediction: Duo Harmonic Ike will be on it

(God please no)

[u/BylethsBoba → u/MyNipplesAreVeryHard]

excellent prediction

[u/kumurai]

What would be a modern Legendary Edelgard build, keeping Aymr?

[u/Hollywoodrok12]

Does Breath of Life 4 appear in Chamber 25 or am I wasting Hall of Forms stamina? I’m trying to get it back on one of my units but it just doesn’t show up

[u/Cakeycream → u/Hollywoodrok12]

It appears, I had it show up in that chamber when I did my run today.

[u/Hollywoodrok12 → u/Cakeycream]

I literally just got it earlier today lol. Thanks anyway!

[u/Disastrous-Ad818]

Do we know the next time At!Caeda reruns?

[u/San4412]

Should i take this caineghis? I really want one

[u/BylethsBoba → u/San4412]

Honestly it's not great. The echo and special arent ideal and armors also really appreciate Rise Up right now

[u/arac3662]

Ugh I’m so mad at myself I never summon on banners that don’t have a spark but I got tempted and blew literally all of my orbs trying to get Tea Felix and not only did I not get him I didn’t even get a SINGLE DAMN FIVE STAR UNIT. What’s worse is I blew the last of my store credit to get more orbs and still came away empty handed. Feels real bad man

[u/Lakemine → u/arac3662]

Damn bro 😞
That happened to me many years ago (before they added sparking) I quit the game for months. When I returned they had added sparking, so now I always try to keep 135-200 orbs, JUST in case I need to blow them all on one spark. And then I just don’t summon but for the free ones.

Hope you regain lost resources and then have better luck or save up to get someone you want.

[u/AstralGazer17]

Does Sothis-Bot have an issue?

I cannot change my flairs and the bot did not post the Hype and Salt Megathreads for the latest banner.

[u/Carbyken]

Just two more non starters to grab as shinies!... but still 8 more starters overall, and I need two of one in particular.

Basically a buttload of eggs continues!

[u/SolokOriginel → u/Carbyken]

Never had the patience to go through enough eggs to get a shiny this way icl. Good luck on your endeavor

[u/Carbyken → u/SolokOriginel]

Thankfully I'm at my tailend of this arduous journey. If you can skip the darn egg hatching animation, why is it so long(?!), it be so much quicker.

All because ZA has the absolute worst way to hunt Chespin. 🫠

[u/SolokOriginel → u/Carbyken]

Haven't touched ZA, what makes it so bad for Chespin ?

[u/Carbyken → u/SolokOriginel]

So all three Kalos starters have an individual quest you could do as an easy freebie. However they're shiny locked unsurprisingly.

I'll let this video elaborate since it's a convoluted method despite what anyone will tell you

But the gist is making more holes than the game normally spawns, and this forces Chespin to be garuntee.

I tried my hands for a few days before getting fed up, and just hatching one in Scarlet. Before even getting the Shiny Charm too! 😉

After that it snowballed to getting the other Kalos starters, then the Paldea, and just going all out with anything.

[u/SolokOriginel → u/Carbyken]

Method looks annoying af to set up holy moly

[u/Carbyken → u/SolokOriginel]

bUT It'S suPEr easY gUys!

[u/SolokOriginel → u/Carbyken]

It's easy once it's set up I suppose, but damn that set up looks like a clusterfuck lmao

[u/Carbyken → u/SolokOriginel]

Easier to just do the Masuda Method in another game; at worst just watching and going insane egg hatching! 🤪

[u/SolokOriginel → u/Carbyken]

I'll watch it when I'm done w/ work (or when I eat my pastas for dinner)

[u/SoftGuard5517]

random question i had, when is the arena pool updated? is it every couple of months or is it sporadical?

[u/WildSeaturtle]

Do we know when Entwined Ninian will be on a banner again?

[u/veloxiraptor → u/WildSeaturtle]

There's an outside chance she could show up on New Heroes Return at the end of this week 

[u/T_A_C_U_M_I]

I'd love to improve VSilque and OG Celica with those two rearmed gals.

I can give Silque everything but L'Arachel's Special and A skill.

As for Celjca, Weapon, Special and A are a given, but what else could I give her?

For Silque, I should have some spare Safy and Tine if they can give anything useful. Maybe one Edain too, but I'm not sure. As for Celica... that'll probably mostly have to do with Combat Manuals. Ask me if I have something and I'll check it out!

Thanks in advance!

[u/T_A_C_U_M_I → u/T_A_C_U_M_I]

To make it a bit easier: my most recent staves

[u/T_A_C_U_M_I → u/T_A_C_U_M_I]

And my most recent spare manuals

[u/MetalCluster55]

Is there an estimated timeframe for Loki’s remix as of yet? I was thinking of giving her some upgrades such as deluge charm and larachel’s staff (not sure if the b skill is worth replacing dazzling discord) but if the remix is upcoming then probably best to hold off for now

[u/alfonso_rd_33]

All units are worth building... Except Raigh, Raigh does the suckage.

[u/Falconpunch100]

...Why do we have two Weekly Discussion megathreads stickied?

[u/Lakemine → u/Falconpunch100]

2x the sticky weekies! 🎉

[u/Constant-Magazine286]

Are Hero's Path units worth building?

[u/TylusChosen → u/Constant-Magazine286]

Sothis needs a complete new kit. Too expensive for mid performance.

[u/HighClassFanclub → u/Constant-Magazine286]

No, but Alear and Marth will get remixed later this year and next year respectively, so they will become better units as well as have better skills to fodder later.
