    So I think daily orbs may be gone for good. Which has lead me to reconsider unit building a little bit.

    Ive 4*ed Alfonse and Anna as a result, since they seem to be common quest completion and arena units. I have also looked at some of the more intensive monthly or event quests for additional orbs, because that seems to be the approach IS wants us to follow by leveling up the required 3* units.

    Doing Barst and Hana right now, as I believe this isn't the first time they have been required for quest completions. Is there a rhyme for these selections that anyone has discerned, or is IS just picking units at random and saying "Kill lvl 35+ foes with Matthew/Arthur/Wrys" for fun?

    Just seems random as fuck, far as I can tell, thinking of the recent Pegasus Sisters event, too.

    There's a defenseless healer in 8-5 Lunatic you can use for Barst and Hanna. There's also a defenseless healer in 1-3 Lunatic you can use for Felicia.

    Very tempted to chase Charlotte/Lyn, but I'll wait and see what their stats are like first.

    I like this kind of banners a lot. They're a great opportunity for saving orbs, since I don't like units not from the games themselves. And even if some skills there sound really good, I don't pull for skills. Hopefully I'll have a bunch of orbs saved when a banner with units I like show up.

    Turns out all these units are pretty good. Caeda be work as a very good Blade tome user, Charlotte has the highest attack stat of any Infantry lance user, Lyn is a great poke unit as well as healer, and Cordelia is the best Archer in the game now.

    Wanted Lyn and Charlotte but got Azura, Cordelia, and Caeda. Not too shabby.

    Really need to stop pulling on banners I don't need anything on.

    Did get 3 Odin's, a Sully, and a much needed Perri for skill inheritance though. Not the worst use of 35 orbs.

    For 4* "Theme" emblem teams, how do Sully and Catria function for their respective Cavalry and Flier teams? Perri is sadly insta SI bait.

    I think this is the first banner ever where I spent more than 50 orbs without getting a Focus unit. My good luck was bound to run out eventually.

    Edit: Sully isn't that bad but Catria's stats are pretty mediocre and she's a sword unit so she's either even or at a disadvantage against a lot of popular Arena units currently. That being said, you can make just about anybody usable if you feed them enough skills.

    Meh, even the "Good" units get one shot by whatever their particular foil is.

    Camus is fantastic!

    My horse Emblem Team consists of follwing 5 Stars:

    Xander
    Weapon: Siegfried
    Assist: Reposition
    Special: Aether (bye Chrom you wont be missed)
    A Slot: Heavy Blade (bye Ike you wont be missed)
    B Slot: Quick Riposte 3 (bye Subaki you wont be missed)
    C Slot: Hone Cavalry (ATK +6 and Speed +6)

    Camus +1
    Weapon: Gardivus
    Assist: Reposition
    Special: Galeforce (bye Cordelia you are missed a bit)
    A Slot: Heavy Blade (bye Ike you wont be missed)
    B Slot: Desperation 3
    C Slot: Goad Cavalry

    Reinhardt:
    Weapon: Dire Thunder
    Assist: Reposition
    Special: Bonfire
    A Slot: Fury
    B Slot: Vantage
    C Slot: Goad Cavalry

    Priscilla +2:
    Weapon: Panik (reverses buffs on oponents to debuffs)
    Assist: Rehabilitate
    Special: Imbue
    A Slot: Atk+2/Def+2
    B Slot: Dazzling Staff (Cannot be countered)
    C Slot: Fortify Cavalry (+6 Def +6 RES)

    I love this setup, not only can i nullify and cripple Tome-Blade users with Priscialla or Emblem users, but Camus gets an extra round due to Goad/Hone Buffs + Heavy Blade and just colors the floor with Blood.

    Currently working on an Ursula setup

    If you can manage to get Genny to feed Elise Wrathful Staff, she can murder a lot of people.

    Edit: Camus is also a complete monster.
