Fire Emblem Heroes (Android & IOS)

Anyone else playing this? I've never played a Fire Emblem game before this one, but I have to admit, it's pretty fun. I'm on chapter 8 now and starting to get my butt kicked so I was trying to see what type of teams people were using. Currently I have Lucina, Hector, Sharena, and Oboro. I have Lucina doing most of the attacking, and using Sharena to help her rally attack and and Oboro rally defense. So far it's been a pretty good strategy.

I have it downloaded but am dreading having to reroll to get decent starters, so haven't started it up yet.

Re: Fire Emblem Heroes (Android & IOS)

I'm probably missing something very basic here never having played any of the games in the series, but what do you mean by reroll to get better characters? I thought you either had to level them up by playing or through rubies, or by luck using the orbs?

Re: Fire Emblem Heroes (Android & IOS)

It's a "gacha" game, and some units are obviously better than others so people often reset the game to get new starting units until they get a decent pull. In this case I think you have to delete the app. While it's true that power creep will eventually make these units obsolete, it helps a great deal to get optimized units early. Or people just really want certain characters.

Re: Fire Emblem Heroes (Android & IOS)

I haven't put any money into it, but I'm kind of obsessed with it right now. Playing it at least once or twice a day for about 20-30 minutes at a time.

I've leveled up the three original (and un-summonable) characters to 4-star. Eventually 5-star, just for the novelty of it. Of course, only being able to get 1000+ feathers from the arena once per week is incredibly tedious. Hopefully they have more promotions coming up, or loosen the restrictions around that a bit.

Here's my roster:

★★★★★ Marth, 22
★★★★★ Raven, 22
★★★★★ Tiki (child), 22
★★★★ Kagero, 21
★★★★ Anna, 20
★★★★ Tiki (adult), 20
★★★★ Laslow, 13
★★★★ Sharena, 13
★★★★ Alfonse, 12
★★★★ Sophia, 1
★★★ Cherche, 13
★★ Olivia, 12

My arena team is the first four, but I can only consistently win in Beginner.

Finished the story on normal and now on the final chapter on hard. I really like the game, so hopefully they add some more content soon.

Re: Fire Emblem Heroes (Android & IOS)

Finally finished on hard and am now on chapter 5 on lunatic difficulty. I really wish they would do something with the stamina system. It's pretty broken on higher levels. You can only play 3 rounds before you have to stop for several hours to let it recharge.
