Fire Emblem Heroes

[Hyroen]

One of the most recent free-to-play tactical role-playing game developed by Intelligent Systems and Nintendo for iOS and Android devices. Using the basic premises of the classic Fire Emblem series, Fire Emblem Heroes brings us the heroes we love with the skills and animations that we've grown to love.

This game is the shiz.

My current (major) team of 40's include my 5-star Lilina (Fire Mage Goddess with inherited skills!), Corrin (Female blue dragon), Athur (Axeman), and Lissa (Healer).

I forgot my Player ID, but I'll add it once I check in later. Putting this in my bookmarks and thanks Hyroen for starting the topic!

I am a fan of fire emblem and have heard mixed reviews on how good/bad this one is.
Is it worth downloading?

I definitely give this game a 9/10, if not a 4/5 star rating. Free to play and pretty addictive depending on the heroes you use. Plus, if you like Fire Emblem or are interested in the series, this is a nice mish-mash of all the heroes of those games that allow you to play the main characters or lesser known NPCs within those games - you can use a ninja maid, a lightning breathing dragon (disguised as a human, obviously), a variety of swordsmen/women, mages, healers, archers, and tanks, and whatnot.

I absolutely agree with Kuro. While I've heard it's not quite the same as Fire Emblem, I think that's no surprise. It is quite well done and highly addicting on the go. I'd say it has some potential to improve and there are several updates that are coming this month alone. The developers seem to also pay attention to the community and in the 2nd month or so after release, one would expect nothing less.

Definitely a game worth at least trying out once.

Also, you can get silly characters such as this dapper fellow.


Yes, he has quite the large carrot.

(5* Spring Xander: get!)

LOL

Gotta love those lance users, but I'm still hoping to get a tank that has far more defensive muscle, if you know what I mean.

Great day to log in, some interesting and pretty massive log-in bonuses (10 Orbs, 5,000 Hero Feathers and other goodies).

Also, 1 day left to finish the Grand Hero Battle for a chance to get Navarre.

[Hyroen]

New Grand Battle out today: Zephiel! Probably one of the best so far.

Also, the game is now in version 1.2.0. Changes include:

Energy cap changed from 50 -> 99! This is huge!

Sacred Seals have been introduced!

Units can now be rearranged before battle starts!

Make sure to check the current quests as some even give Sacred Seals, extra Orbs and even some units!

Oh and once again, be sure to add me.

Can someone explain why people are putting sword/lance/axe breaker skills on their ranged units?

Let me give you one scenario:

Suppose you don't have a good duelist/tank (like me), but you DO have a pretty badass nuker. Enter, Lilina:



(I need to shrink this down ^^; )

The purpose of having sword/lance/axe breaker skills on ranged units is that usually, those ranged units (such as my mage above) are pretty damn weak to one of them. Swords users tend to be extremely fast [coughLUCINAcough], and as such, my main damage dealer would be demolished very quickly if they got within range to kill her. By having the B-slot passive though, my red tome user can take out Lucina via a double attack (with no possible retaliation at 2 range) and a majority of sword users (assuming she has +70% HP), which is huge, given that there are a lot of sword characters in the game.

While it would be equally viable to place the Swordbreaker on a blue mage/lancer, giving it to my fire mage makes her far more of a threat to various types (swords, axe users, wind mages, green dragons, low resistance units, etc.).

Do any vets have suggestions to someone just starting out? I'm on chapter 6 and can't decide if I want a bowman or a priest, or if I should switch, or what. Can post pics if requested.
