Social Corrin Social - Still Fire Emblem Social

Ryoma and Chrom are getting quite competitive with each other!

It's Matt Mercer fighting against Matt Mercer!

Anyone else get them some Corrin P2? Got mine, and she's honestly quite possibly the nicest piece of plastic I've ever held.

Nope. I got Cloud and I am happy about that.

I decided to promote Alfonse not too long ago, and I've finished training him up. Now, the Askr trio is complete! Since a member of the Askr trio is always on rotation as a bonus hero in the arena, I will always be able to field a team of fully trained 5* units.

Here's the final product:

Spoiler

They look pretty good, don't they? I may swap out a few skills for something better down the road, as Glimmer isn't all that good of a special and Anna could use something better than her native Spur Res--but that's low priority.

Sharena is the first of the trio I promoted to 5*, and she's been quite a useful lancer ever since. For awhile, I used her with Quick Riposte 1 and her native Spd +3, but she really works a lot better with Fury 3. She's strong, pretty bulky and quick, and the setup I have let's her perform support functions really well too.

Anna, my second Askr promotion, is both fast and powerful. With 41 spd, she pretty much doubles everything, which is great for Desperation. Fury 3 has great synergy with both Desperation and Noatun, which has a built-in Escape Route 2. I especially liked that setup in the Tempest Trials, where she would reach 1 HP, and be able to warp all over the map and quickly deliver her Reprisal special.

And, last (and probably least), Alfonse. He's quite strong, but his slowness is certainly an issue. He'll be doubled by most things. However, he has a really nice Atk, and reasonably nice bulk. I went with a Brash Assault build, which synergizes with his weapon, which has built in Defiant Atk 2. If he's under 50% HP, he will have 62 Atk on the offense, and, with his respectable bulk, Brash Assault works well to allow him to wipe out most things if he can survive the counter. I might give him Armored Blow or Defiant Def later on, but this is good for now.

In any case, it was a lot of work to get them up to this level, and I think it has paid off!

Yo, just a head's up, new Heroes info coming today at 8:30 PST.

Edit: LOL, never mind. It's tomorrow at 8:30 PM PST. Nintendo goofed up here.

Cloud is all I need right now. Love the quality of this thing.

 

[Kotor]

That Feh Channel news thing is happening at 11:30 PM EST is you're able to see it.

 

[ZephyrZ]

Oh wow, they really did give Valter a signature cursed lance, even though he never used it in SS. It just goes to show that the developers really know their source material. Anyway, I hope this marks an upcoming SS update.

 

[Kotor]

There's just something amusing about this being Leo's third Gauntlet appearance. Either the man is desperate for a win, or Intelligent Systems is desperate to have this guy win a gauntlet.

 

[Armagon]

My thoughts on the livestream (copying from my SerenesForest post).

• Valter: Oh hey, finally more Sacred Stones characters. And he's using the Cursed Lance that's mentioned but never actually seen.
• Lilina and Cecilia Bound Hero Battle: Meh. Also, the pronunciation of Lilina's name massively triggers me.
• 4-Stars have higher chance now. Good.
• SUMMER NOHRAINS+F!CORRIN
• SUMMER VOTING GAUNTLET! IT'S GONNA COME DOWN TO ROBIN VS CORRIN! THE GAUNTLET IS ALSO ENTIRELY AWAKENING AND FATES THEMED SO IT'S FAIR THIS TIME!
• A Log-in bonus series that can earn me 60 Orbs in totally. Can't wait to waste them all in Subaki.
• Oh, free first summons for every banner starting from the 7th. Nice. Can't wait for my first summon to be Subaki.
  • Speaking of, i literally just pulled Subaki went i wanted Delthea. My Subaki hatred burns deep.
• Arena Assualt.
• Pokedex Hero Catalouge is nice.
• Another Echoes Tempest. Expected. That multiplier is really nice.

 

[Erureido]

Might as well share my thoughts:

Next banner to be another summer theme and it will feature the Nohrian royals? Not interested.

Cool that we can get up to 60 orbs next month, and that free summon deal is great too.

So Clive will be the unlockable unit in the next Tempest Trials. I'm cool with that.

And I saved the best news for last:

Heck yeah, my dream came true! I knew Valter would've been perfect for a GHB. Glad to see he's in. Nice that they're giving him that Cursed Lance he once owned as well. It's a nice way of bringing in Sacred Stones lore to Heroes.

I was expecting the reveal of the Sacred Stones banner when they talked about Valter, but it turned out to not be the case. Disappointing. Hopefully, it will be revealed later. I really want Joshua and Forde in Heroes already, as well as Seth, Lute, Garcia, Ross, and Innes.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, the trailer is out for the upcoming Beach DLC:

Female Corrin and Xander appear to be the best of the four based on their skills.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Additionally, someone on Serenesforest might've figured out who the characters will be in the next Hero fest by comparing the silhouettes to four certain characters that appeared in Heroes:

Spoiler: The four possible characters in the next Hero Fest

Pretty good banner if it turns out to be true!

It's also Elise's third Gauntlet appearance as well, only she has the bragging rights of winning a previous Gauntlet compared to her older brother.

 

[Astellius]

Just watched the Feh Channel video--lots of really great information! I'm especially excited about F!Corrin. The artwork for her is super good, and she's a flying mage! The artwork for her regular portrait is pretty bad, so I'm glad she finally will be getting some really nice official art for the game. I'll definitely be putting orbs into trying to summon her! If I pull her (please RNG Goddess?), I'll probably immediately promote an Odin to give her Blarblade+.

As for the Voting Gauntlet, if I summon a Corrin, I'll be torn between her and Tiki.

There's also another Hero Fest banner coming up (no one mentioned that yet). Who do you think will be in it? I think Ike has a good chance of being in it.

Anyone else get them some Corrin P2? Got mine, and she's honestly quite possibly the nicest piece of plastic I've ever held.

Glad you got her! I don't have a lot of money right now, so I didn't order one, although I would definitely like one. I'm hoping that fortune will favor me in Heroes though, and allow me to pull a Summer Corrin once she comes out!

• Lilina and Cecilia Bound Hero Battle: Meh. Also, the pronunciation of Lilina's name massively triggers me.
  [...]
  
• SUMMER VOTING GAUNTLET! IT'S GONNA COME DOWN TO ROBIN VS CORRIN! THE GAUNTLET IS ALSO ENTIRELY AWAKENING AND FATES THEMED SO IT'S FAIR THIS TIME!

What was wrong with how they pronounced Lilina? I also wouldn't write off Tiki, I expect she'll do quite well.

 

[Armagon]

What was wrong with how they pronounced Lilina?

I've always pronounced it "Li-li-na" but Feh pronounces it "Lee-Lee-na".

 

[Tino]

I just saw that livestream presentation earlier. Lots of good stuff they talked about. Best part for me is the appearance rate of 4-star characters will now be higher (I was getting fed up with too many 3-stars). And Valter appearing in the next GHB does bring hope for more characters from The Sacred Stones to appear. I mean it would be nice too.

Not interested in the Nohrian Summer banner nor the upcoming gauntlet.

There's also another Hero Fest banner coming up (no one mentioned that yet). Who do you think will be in it? I think Ike has a good chance of being in it.

It's anyone's guess who will be in it. I'll just let time do the talking because I don't like guessing games.

I've always pronounced it "Li-li-na" but Feh pronounces it "Lee-Lee-na".

The way Feh pronounced her name is exactly how I pronounce it. I even call her Lily for short. I don't see what the problem is here.

I decided to promote Alfonse not too long ago, and I've finished training him up. Now, the Askr trio is complete! Since a member of the Askr trio is always on rotation as a bonus hero in the arena, I will always be able to field a team of fully trained 5* units.

Ah, you promoted all three of the main trio I see. Mines are still at 4-stars but I will promote them someday but only after I promote some of my favorites first. I recently promoted Mae and Xander to 5-stars and I plan to do Catria next.

 

[Armagon]

The way Feh pronounced her name is exactly how I pronounce it. I even call her Lily for short. I don't see what the problem is here.

It's only a problem for me. It's like when you pronounce a Pokemon's name a certain way, but then you hear the official pronunciation, but you don't like the official pronunciation, so you still pronounce it the way you've been doing it anyway. It's the same deal here.

 

[Astellius]

I've always pronounced it "Li-li-na" but Feh pronounces it "Lee-Lee-na".

Feh pronounced it "li-LEE-nuh" (so the first two syllables are pretty similar to 'lily'), and this is how the name is generally supposed to be pronounced. It's not like IS invented the name or anything like that. But, yeah, I can understand getting attached to certain pronunciations.

Ah, you promoted all three of the main trio I see. Mines are still at 4-stars but I will promote them someday but only after I promote some of my favorites first. I recently promoted Mae and Xander to 5-stars and I plan to do Catria next.

Yes, they're all promoted now. I had delayed on Alfonse for awhile, since I personally find him to be super lame, but I decided to just get it out of the way so that I'm always guaranteed to have a fully trained 5-star bonus hero for the Arena. I like both Anna and Sharena, so I was happy to promote them, and they're both really good units as well. I've promoted a good amount of characters I like, and most of the people on my waitlist perform fine as 4* units. I'm also hoping to pull a Palla with a more ideal nature sometime before I promote her to complete the Whitewings.

 

[Kotor]

Round 2 is going to be hectic.

 

[stop ok he's top 10]

Only 2 summons!!!

They put Kamui and Robin in the same tier? Why the hell would they do that? Someone teach IS how to make tournaments....

 

[Armagon]

It's almost as if they want the Gauntlet to follow a Boys vs Girls format.

 

[LordTakeo]

Ah, all the newcoming changes, august will be a good good month.

Just wish I had the luck for female camui. Have yet to pull a hinoka for flier emblem, but having two good tome flier, would be pretty nice.

... also I just like her artwork, seen the quality on her simple standard portrait? Amazing!

 

[ZephyrZ]

Honestly, all these characters are pretty popular. Corrin will still probably win, but I suspect that this will still be really close, even not factoring in pity points for the losing team.

On a different note, I think I'll be rolling for beach Corrin. I'm honestly not too excited by special event characters most of the time, but having a magic flier who isn't Camilla or the inevitable Aversa is a really tempting.

 

[Metallinatus]

It's almost as if they want the Gauntlet to follow a Boys vs Girls format.

Which is even worse, because it was supposed to be a Ylisse vs. Nohr gauntlet, even the banner clearly points at that instead of on a boys vs. girls format. And of course, Ylisse vs. Nohr would be muuuch more cool than that super overdone boys vs. girls thing....
The potential, the potential they are losing with that format!!!

IS is saving that for the Hoshido vs Nohr gauntlets.

 

[LordTakeo]

IS is saving that for the Hoshido vs Nohr gauntlets.

Where Leo will have his 4th apperance, of course.

I am kinda happy with the lack of Camilla and Lucina. Quite surprising.

And am unsure if I don't want to save up orbs for the legendary hero banner...

 

[ZephyrZ]

Apparently by comparing the little bits of the silhouettes we saw in the Feh channel, people figured out who the hero fest characters are going to be.

Spoiler: Hero Fest

Ike, Ninian, Julia and Genny.

Honestly, I'm not super excited. I already have a Ninian and Julia, and while Ike would be nice, I already have tons of sword units. It'd be really cool if I could roll Genny a couple times, but I'm not counting on it. Still though, a 5% chance to get a 5-star character is really nice, so I might end up spending most of my orbs on that banner anyway.

At least three out of four of them have unique skills to use as fodder if you get more than one of them. Heavy Blade (with Aether) on Ike, Wrathful Staff on Genny, and the (admittedly niche) Fortify Dragons on Ninian.

I am kinda happy with the lack of Camilla and Lucina. Quite surprising.

I guess it's because they already got the Easter treatment. I mean, I guess they did make an exception for Xander...but his Easter costume wasn't at all sexualized, and that Lilith Floatie is now the absolute silliest weapon in the game. I actually kind of hope a roll a summer Xander so that I can use inheritance to give that weapon to someone it'd be even sillier on.

Bond Support sample between Corrin and Xander.

Translation:

Corrin: Ah, there's a beautiful colored bird over there. Haha, it's cute isn't it?

Xander: Haha, you look like you're having fun, Corrin. Are animals and birds really that foreign to you?

Corrin: Of course! It's because I'm just seeing these for the first time. Besides, given the circumstances saying this is a bit out of place, but I'm a little happy to be able to go around seeing various things with my older brothers while being outside of that castle.

Xander: That's right. I too was just feeling the same way. Also, in all honesty I'm relieved to finally see your face so full of life.

In Fire Emblem Warriors news, Cordelia and female Robin have been both confirmed to appear in the game as playable characters:

I'm really hoping F!Robin is a pallet swap. Hyrule Warriors had Link, Toon Link, and Young Link, but they were all unique. F!Robin in those screenshots appears to be identical to M!Robin.

 

[Nah]

The Robins being palette swaps of each other would make most sense/is probably the best way to go. Not really sure what would be the point in having them be separate, idk how you'd differentiate them enough to warrant it.

Mildly interested in seeing a gameplay trailer with Cordelia in it, want to see how a flying unit would work in this game.

 

[ZephyrZ]

They'll probably fly close to the ground, but come with a ton of aerial combos. What I'm curious of, however, is if there will be movement restricting terrain or shortcuts only fliers can take.

Cordelia's appearence also feeds my suspicions that we'll be seeing the popularity poll winners. Prepare for more franchise milking, everyone! Hopefully Owain won't stop being funny after his 4th appearance in a game.

 

[Tino]

I'm curious to know why most folks like Cordelia, who is such a boring as **** character in my opinion.

 

[DarkAuraful]

Fliers are going to be particularly interesting. I wonder how they're going to fare with archers, since that's what they're vulnerable to. Though I can't really say or think that the bonus damage mechanic might come over in a Warriors system either. More curious in what kind of design KOEI is going use to animate the musou specials in particular.

 

[Armagon]

What I'm curious of, however, is if there will be mobement restricting terrain or shortcuts only fliers can take.

Maybe. I do know they will take more damage from Archers, which is expected.

 

[Armagon]

So the Famitsu scans got translated. Here's what we know (taking this summary from SerenesForesT)

• F!Robin likely an alt, unavailable in story mode
• There are flier exclusive routes on maps
• Characters permanently retreat in Classic Mode-- still alive for story scenes and convos, but unable to be deployed
• Weapon attributes migrate over from Warriors proper
• Weapon Triangle is literally DW8's Storm Rush system (which we already knew from footage)
• You can tweak AI controlled character's tendencies as well as issue orders

 

[ZephyrZ]

I was rolling for a summer
Corrin, but Hinoka decided to jump in as my blue unit instead. Up until just now, Hinoka was one of my most wanted units, so I'm 100% okay with this. Besides, Hone Fliers will be nifty when I one day do manage to get a magic flier.

 

[Nah]

One detail the new update mentions is that "For new summon events, the first time you summon, you won't have to use an Orb"

Is this for one whole summoning session, or merely the first stone you select on the summoning pentagram?

 

[Skyward]

It's just the very first selection. After that, it's 4 -> 4 -> 3 -> 2 like normal.

On another note, I can also vouch for the fact that you are now more likely to get 4 star Heroes. I did a quick summon, and all 5 pulls were 4 star.

The did swapped the chance for 3 stars and 4 stars. Was in the video too.

 

[Kotor]

Well I cleared the Infernal C + L Bound Hero map.

Admittedly, it was done using Horse Emblem, but hey, as long as it works.

 

[ZephyrZ]

I just cleared it as well. I didn't go all-out horse emblem, but Olwen did carry the day with the help of hone cavalry and dancer support. She managed to take out half the enemy team by herself. Even going only partial horse emblem can be far too much.

 

[Deleted member]

I was able to clear it, but it took me hours to figure it out. The problem I had with it was that I had a difficult time choosing where to start, as both paths were nicely covered.
Go on the bottom path and I get screwed by either the cavalier, Lilina, or Cecilia and the top path is the same, but replace the cavalier with a pegasus knight.
With some Sacred Seals, Skill Inheritance, and luck from manipulating the AI, I did manage to beat it with Ryoma, Azura, Reinhardt, and male Robin.
