Social NintenZone Social 6.0 - L'Arachel Edition, Apparently?

[Erureido]

Did my free summon when the banner began:

I went with Veronica! I needed a healer who can both pack a punch and heal/support the allies well, and since I have no Elise and Maribelle, I figured Veronica would fill that role.

I was about 500 crystals from grinding her from just crystals, so when she was level 39, I grinded her up in the 10th level Training Map. It was there I got to experience Veronica's usefulness first hand, and boy, is she really good! That staff hits quite hard, and combined with the stat boosts it provides after using it, she can hit even harder! Her exclusive special is also really good too!

Most of her skill set is already there. The only thing she needs is Atk/Spd Push 3, which is really good. Well, looks like I now know what I'm pulling from the Hoshidan Festival now: Dancing Elincia! She has that very skill after all. For now, my A-skill of choice will be either Attack +3 or Speed +3.

I also went for one full round of summoning after clearing all the paralogue chapters on normal to see if I could get anymore of the new Brave Heroes. Sadly, I didn't get any more from it, but I did get my first Ares.

I've decided not to spend my orbs on the CYL 2 banner for the time being. I want to save up for Legendary Hero banner in the hopes of pulling VA!Hector for Distant Counter and Hrid to add to my team. I'll focus on pulling from CYL 2 once the Legendary Hero banner ends, or I get all the the characters I want from the coming LH banner.

Good job on the luck man!
That Grima, Hardin and Effie banner were my lucky points, because I got a +Attack -Speed Grima and two Hardins. One was +Attack -Speed loool.

SC6 has a second story mode

Custom characters and you can even change the species.

Oh and Tira is a pre-order bonus character

Good now all 3 of my favourites are in SC6. I’m surprised Cervantes hasn’t been shown yet.

Someone put the Ultimate roster through a translator 30 times and I'm honestly losing my **** at some of these.

Spoiler: Incredibly Stupid

I decided to take a trip to memory lane, and....

This is my first post in NintenZone 5, the place when I found NintenZone.

Also back then I had no idea what Reinhardt was because I never played FEH. Now I realized he is from FE 776 and used to dominate the meta.

I thought he was from Fire Emblem Warriors. Wow I was so uncivilized back then.

Also....

This was the post that started the mayonnaise tsundre joke.

You know me, I love my corny jokes.

 

[Deleted member]

Finally got Veronica to work. Perfect for my bulky Renewal team for picking off and weakening foes, and I use Olivia for obv Dancer stuff but also her ability to make armored units go near her which is useful for Tharja. Also have Reposition on Grima for added movement options as well as Pivot for Tharja.

The healing with Veronica + Renewal keeps the team alive along with the buffs so it's perfect for Chain Challenge.

 

[Z25]

I chose Veronica and did some summons. The first red orb I pulled was this:

Not quite the brave hero I was after but I’ll use him. I merged my old one with him because this one is plus def minus res so he can be a little bulkier until I get a plus speed or attack one down the road

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

deciding factor if I get Veronica. Is her staff inheritable?

 

[Deleted member]

Man, I wish Ostian Counter was inheritable...

No, it is not.

With Ostia's Counter and being very easy to build, I have a feeling that this new Hector is going to be busted.

Here comes another "long essay" lol

Developers are not obligated to give any reason at all why their game isn't coming for a specific platform. You buy a system knowing full well that all your favourite games probably won't come to that system. If that system doesn't get all of the games you want, then either too bad, or you go buy another system.

So... I know you definitely not mean this way but... I really hope you don't mean that game studios are allowed to lie to their audience? From my own perspective, Gear fir Breakfast somewhat lied... And this won't be good for the studio... Because after this I will only take their every tweet with a huge grain of salt.

I checked Gears for Breakfat'a tweet and there was one tweet said they will never put the game on Switch, yikes...

Or they shouldn't be that straight up deny. They could have just say "No plans for Switch" like how other studios do.

And don't get me wrong, I think Gears for Breakfast is a great studio, just that they may have to be more good with their social media next time lol.

Spoiler: Long text

Edit: Just my own personal speculation here, but regardless if you think Gears for Breakfast or any studio should not be obligated to give reasons why their game is not coming to Switch. First off, it all comes to the requests, if a game has been highly requested for Switch port. The developer should give out if they want to port it or not in my opinion, if yes then okay if not is it no plans? Or the game just really can't run on Switch? Or just they simply don't want to because they don't see the market for their games? Because if they don't or being too brief ... And again just my personal speculation here but you might have people don't want to buy the game because they want a Switch port if it or just move on to next game since there's more similar games on Switch (I am somewhat on this boat, I decided to boycott A Hat In Time on Steam because I prefer it on Switch, plus Odyssey was enough for me at the time) , that being said yes I do agree that just go buy other versions if the game that you like doesn't come to Switch. When it eventually does come it is up to you to decide to double dip or not.

Also if you think many expected A Hat In Time is gonna be on Switch. You really can't blame them since A Hat In Time was planned for Wii U back then. So it was safe to say that they were trying to release their games on Nintendo console. Plus Switch is way more easier to develop games on than the Wii U, plus how well the systems sells, so there's no technical excuse for Gears For Breakfast besides of just them not wanting to port it. Which is okay. I never really demanding A Hat In Time to come to Switch, it was just safe to say they will miss a huge audience if they didn't.

In AHiT's case, they gave a perfectly reasonable explanation in that their game engine wasn't natively supported by the Switch. Don't see how that's "too brief", if it's literally why it isn't coming.

That was from most possible explanation from the media's, I don't think Gears for Breakfast ever said it from themselves. But then you have Rocket League was made from the same engine as A Hat In Time so it somewhat raises people's eyebrows a bit back in the day.

Regardless, they got it all sorted out now. Either someone helped them get UE3 working on Switch, or they rebuilt the game on a new engine altogether (like UE4).

Both are highly plausible.
What I care the most now though is when will it release and how will it run on Switch lol.

From A Hat In Time on Switch which we never expect after that very blatant deny tweet... Tells us that, studios will port games to Switch as long as they see the how popular the system is. Never say never.

Also Grandia 1 and 2 is coming to Switch so this adds up two more games on my list along with A Hat In Time. Grandia's battle system looks really really dope imo.

No, it is not.

damn, oh well Guess I'll get Ephraim then

You know how bonkers a mixed phase Grima can be?

His default kit is basically a powercrept version of that. All you need is a Heavy Blade seal and you're done.

 

[ChikoLad]

Man, I wish Ostian Counter was inheritable...

Same, my Clair would love it. Hinoka and Chrom might too.

I know. I am just curious, are you going to use the +Attack -Speed Brave Hector in your main team?

Same, my Clair would love it. Hinoka and Chrom might too.

Indeed. Only thing is it would make all three Hector forms more powerful but I feel like it would also give more units that rely on Distant Counter a better chance.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

I know. I am just curious, are you going to use the +Attack -Speed Brave Hector in your main team?

Definitely.

Went from having no mixed phase units on my main team to having the option of using TWO of them.

Today's a good day.

You have fun with your unit. I am glad you got that perfect Brave Hector after loosing around six hundred orbs.
*Licks Ice Cream*

I beg FEH to make Ostian's Counter inheritable.
Now I can make LA Hector even more busted.

 

[Moydow]

Better that Ostian Counter isn't inheritable, anyway. With how the game heavily favours defensive enemy-phase units, Distant Counter is already more than powerful enough, and needs nerfing, if anything (should probably have had three tiers and a HP requirement, where it only works if you have more than 50% HP or so). Having an inheritable form of the skill that also boosts your defensive abilities would just be dumb.

Someone has to spoil the fun by bringing actual logic in, right? :p

I don't like where they seem to be going with Death Blow 4, though. The only way I'll find that acceptable is if they eventually add some sort of skill refinery in, so that you can get skills like that without having to fodder off rare 5* exclusive units.

Special Fighter seems a bit silly too. Armours don't need any more special, exclusive skills like that. Not that it's going to displace Bold Fighter for too many people anyway, but still.

Yep team is good, just beat Lunatic Tempest Trial and made it to final round before losing two members for a mistake I made, but easily won with just one team.

Only once I decide which is better between Even Res Wave and Ward Armor.

Wave skills are inconsistent, which is why I have that dilemma.

Does anyone have the answer to today’s feh summer quiz?

 

[Deleted member]

I have a feeling that this Hector is going to be extremely busted.

+He is very easy to build.
+Move over LA Hector, there is a new Hector who has superior defenses with Ostia's Counter.
+Ostia's Counter gives him top tier attack.
+Good resistance.
+Fits onto teams very well.

Only shortcoming is his low speed.

 

[Mythra]

Can I get an F for our unfortunate Komrade? :V




Meanwhile Im sitting at 3.50% in the Hoshidan Summer and 3.25% thinking on which pityrate I should invest.

 

[Moydow]

Does anyone have the answer to today’s feh summer quiz?

Spoiler: For cheaters

Spoiler: An actual explanation

The correct answer is C. If you look at the video, in the situation as it stands at the end, Sharena can easily defeat enemy Alfonse, Alfonse has Triangle Adept so he one-shots enemy Anna, and ally Anna can then teleport to deal with enemy Sharena.
