So, which Ike won?

SSBB Ike or SSB4 Ike?

Path of Radiance so SSBB.

Aw, I voted for the other one.

Lol even though Lyn won, the girls were completely dominated by Awakening and Fates. Didn't know people liked Donnel like that much...

Finally finished up chapter 9 tonight, and have started to breeze through the early missions on Hard (Gives me a good reason to use my lower rank characters again too. No reason to use my good characters if they aren't going to get any experience from replaying the older missions).

Should have enough Orbs for a full summon tomorrow.

@RR529 Same here.

Found the sub boss way more challenging than Veronica tbh. Just noticed he doesn't appear to have a name yet. He's really cool (annoying to fight though), I'd love to have him as a unit someday.

Already started farming the lower end of the Hard, I'll take a peak at Lunatic once I've gotten as far I think I'd be able to at my team's current levels. The training tower was absolutely tedious at first but I think I've gotten the hang of getting the most out of it to level up more quickly. Upgrading the castle has also been making a huge difference but I'm going to leave it at 80% for now and try to build up another 20 orbs for summoning.

Man, I'm sure going to miss this easy farming. With just two new chapters a month, it's gonna be drier than the Sahara from here.

Auto fighting makes grinding a bit more tolerable.

Indeed! I have come to the point where I have just 7 lunatic levels ahead of me in order to get sone orbs. So the next summoning is rather away. Without the prospect of having a satisfying number of orbs within reach the game loses its appeal. I dont mind the grind, its rather yhe waiting stamina time that becomes ridiculously long if you want to level up characters above level 25.
Part of me wants to delete this app, part of me wants to continue and see what the next maps, modes will be like. This game somehow has no satisfying goal besides leveling up and collecting 5 star heroes, which are generally hard to come by. Overall its a memorable experience.
I think I might need to make long term plans for this game and do only sessions all 4 hours when stamina has been repleted.
My last two summonings came with seven 3 star heroes and three 4 star heroes. That was disappointing.

I haven't obtained a single five star character in the three summons I've been able to do.

As a personal project I have been leveling and ranking up the a rank one character. It's currently rank three.

I think I've finally reached the point where I have to do something to get better characters. I'm on the third level of chapter 5 I think, and I am just using my original team of four that I got at the beginning, but there is one blue guy that I just cannot beat to save my life, even with my green person. The red and archer people both do 0 damage to him which doesn't help.

@Meowpheel You should really be doing 5 summons at a time. It is cheaper and you are more likely to get a 5 Star. In 15-20 summons I got four 5 Stars (Lyn, Sakura, Lucina, Tiki) and mostly 4 Stars.

@Andrzej777

What most games of this type tend to do to keep things interesting is hold events weekly that usually have some type of special reward you can get like a new card/unit. Our first one will begin tomorrow and last through the 14th. I'm hoping the 'big' reward is at least a four star (though a five star would be most appealing) with some smaller rewards you can earn on while you complete missions like orbs, stamina potions, dueling swords, and crystals/shards. I'm assuming the schedule's going to end up like Event-->New Chapter-->Event-->New Chapter each month. Then you add in the daily special maps, Arena Duels, mission sheets, and leveling up cards in the training tower, I think there'll be plenty to do gameplay wise in the end. It's just as things are right now, there's not a more generous source of free orbs which is going to be rough on F2P players as summoning your favorite FE heroes is such a large part of the appeal. I'm hoping events will aid this by offering orbs as tier/point/mission rewards. They could also add more orb rewards to the monthly mission sheets and daily login bonuses.

Yeah, the event going on now is an Arena thing, and they just gave me 10,000 Feathers as a log in bonus!

@DefHalan that's what I meant by 3 summons. 3 full sets of 5.

It's been mostly 3* characters.

I really hope so. Truth be told I was very sceptical about this game before it launched. Its actually my first ever mobile game (5 minutes of pokemon go dont count I presume). I intended to see what it is and discard it very soon.
But I actually like it very much - but not that much as to invest money into it.

Yeah, if I run out of Orb opportunities, I'll probably spend my time in the Training Tower & Arena leveling & ranking up my lower rank heroes. Just playing a few quick rounds of Fire Emblem (as simplified as it is) is fun enough by itself I've found.

My Gunter is finally rank 4, he's awesome. Next up, Robin and Cecilia.

All that training also gave him more than enough points for his skills.

Didn't get anyone particularly exciting in my last summon...

4 Star: Gwendolyn (Probably my best pull of this batch. Don't know who she is, but I needed a high rank spear wielder, so she'll be useful), Laslow (I'll probably level him just in case, but I'll probably just keep Caeda as my main sword user for now).

3 Star: Henry (no one can replace my 5 Star Tharja in terms of red tome users), Stahl (yawn), Clarine (she's a Mounted Cleric, and I sure as heck didn't need any more clerics. Give me my Kagero, or ANY archer at this point, 'cause I need one).

My main blue unit is the blue Pegasus sister.

She gets her "limit break" like every other action. She's merciless.
