    Honestly, I find FEH to be pretty well paced in terms of being able to accomplish stuff being F2P. Im sitting on ~80k feathers right now and have already promoted maybe 8 or 9 units from 4->5 for either skill inheritance or to use them. Arena, Arena Assault, daily missions, and monthly events (Tempest Trials and Voting Gauntlet) easily net in the 30-40k feather range per month. You can even cap out rewards on Tempest Trials through auto-ing the middle difficulties and spending a few stamina potions without much effort at all.

    As per merging 5* units, keep in mind they are technically "worth" 5 orbs regardless of how you obtained them (summoning or event rewards). And you also have to weigh if that 5* has optimal IV's for their use. My general rule is that making a Unit +1, for example, isn't as important as giving a unit that "free" 5 orb ability they have to make that new unit as functional a unit as the original unit. But that also only works for rarer skills like Swordbreaker, Quick Riposte, Vantage, etc.

    You honestly get the most bang in hoarding common 4* units and making them +10 - especially colorless.

    NEPHENEE!!!!!!!!!

    Thought to be a Tempest reward, so I won't even have to use orbs on her.

    Also means a new Tellius banner or two are on their way.

    Damn, that's a good Lyn, and a pretty unfortunate Ike.

    You're also a brave man for pulling colorless orbs to get her haha.

    Damn that sucks, I picked Lyn for my free one, went to the new banner, on the first pull I got green Ike, haven't checked his IV's yet. Feels good man.

    I'm actually surprised Nintendo/IS even bothered to add english to the end of it over the JP version.

    It makes me happy they're wholeheartedly putting so much effort into this game.

    And yeah, I think September will be heavy Tellius focus. Black Knight GHB will hopefully come of this as well.

    Edit: Went Lyn for free, and got a -spd +def Ike within 20 orbs. I may cut my losses and stop.

    -SPD is a pretty good bane for Ike I think, even with +SPD he's only hitting 31 and getting doubled by a lot of units anyway. With +DEF he's sitting at 38 before Steady Breath which is kind of hilarious for a non-Armor. I'd say -SPD or -RES are ideal for him, and +ATK is probably the best boon. He's a monster enemy phase unit.

    Tried a few more times to snipe a Lucina, but stopping. If Tellius is coming, Micaiah is a near guarantee and Sothe/Jill/Elincia/Haar are probable. I'll certainly want to try and pull there.

    Got a 4* Hawkeye and Abel out of chasing Lucina a bit, so its not a total loss for Swordbreaker and Deathblow fodder.

    I really wanted her lucina and ike. Lyn the most.

    I normally pull only the color I want. I did all 5 summons a few times to get bonus up first, then start going for only color. I got my first Leo on accident as my first 5 star. Got a my first 5 star ephraim too. Then got Lyn. Pretty happy.

    Also, I didnt know Lucina was a member of Spectre.

    Yeah, in thinking about the more diluted blue and red pools and the fact these characters are added to their respective pools after the banner is over once you get Ike or Lyn (plus your free pull) it's a smart move to stop pulling, unless you really want that Lucina or Roy.

    Still got time before I decide who to choose between Ike and Lyn :/

    Edit: Fuck it- Elise, you made it to Horse Emblem with Xander, Cecilia and Reinhardt. Camus...u didn't make the cut.

    Well I may have burned about 150 orbs trying to get Summer Corrin and failed, but I did just get Lucina from my freebie pull on the CYL banner, so that's something. Time to focus on green orbs for Ike and hopefully get him so I can take Lyn for free.

    Edit: And she's +SPD -HP so, yay.

    Edit: And although no one is really talking about him, Brave Roy is pretty busted.

    took Lyn for free pull.
    got a +hp -spd B.ike which is quite interesting since -spd might be the best thing for his weapon, not sure how to build him yet. I'll probably use his base kit and replace his B with quick riposte or vantage.

    Quick Riposte and Sol or Noontime will work really well on him because of Urvan's cooldown reduction and Steady Breath. He'll have Noontime charged in every engagement. You could also just obliterate somebody with Ignis on every enemy phase.

    Would Noontime or Aether be better? Math wise, it probably breaks down to Luna vs Moonbow.

    Whats a good A skill for Ike before Distant Counter? Probably won't have it on him for a while since im keeping my first Hector pull. Def or Res +3 just for the bulk?

    Just keep his natural A, its heavy blade but for defensive purposes

    @ Adajer, Lyn's at 2,388,210,110 vs Lucina 2,340,379,800 - winner of this match will be in finals vs Ike

    As of right now when I looked, Lyn is ahead by 40k, so its really close for now. So if you want her to win, pick her now and dump more points there. But even if she loses its not like you can't pick an other side later on anyway.
