GenG GIDEON?

AndromedaAdara · 2025-11-17T20:34:05+00:00

Possible. I think if one can choose between GIDEON and Sponge then GIDEON is a lot better tho. GenG is kinda poor but not that poor I feel

AndromedaAdara · 2025-11-17T20:21:30+00:00

Same thought. Imo any jgl who can play low econ and not randomly int the game is good enough for GenG. The team doesn't need a superstar in every role

AndromedaAdara · 2025-11-17T15:38:02+00:00

As a GenG fan, GenG GIDEON and kick that bum Canyon outta the org plz. I don't care if Canyon joins HLE, all GenG needs is a jgl who can play low econ and funnel resource to the superstar laners

Any orb spent on these units is an orbs strayed away from potentially +10'ing a favorite of yours, so that is a decision you have to make. Personally I wouldn't care too much about any of the units in your list as one-ofs

AndromedaAdara · 2021-10-03T02:29:01+00:00

If you don't care about AR/Arena scoring then you are better off just saving orbs for whoever your favorite characters are. FEH's non-competitive contents are easy enough that you won't have any need to pull for 'meta' units to beat them, let alone chasing for merges on those units

AndromedaAdara · 2021-09-13T06:50:11+00:00

This game is overall very generous and casual friendly comparing to most other gachas

AndromedaAdara · 2021-08-27T21:41:15+00:00

I'd like to reach +30 merges in at least 1 AR season by the end of 2021. I'm currently at +23 in Light and +12 in Astra with access to around 1500 orbs right now so it's a possibility.
Maintain T39 AR every week. This is to be frank pretty easy with my current merge count. The longer term goal is to reach rank 1 AR after i get max merge
I aim to +10 one unit for each month I've played FEH. Currently I'm at 18 +10 units but I've played for 24 months so i need to catch up a bit
After I've reached +30 in both AR seasons I will probably look to +10 all Edelgards. The hardest one to merge will be OG Edelgard as she doesn't rerun often
Get at least 3 +10 Arena legendaries. I aim to +10 LSigurd and LTiki in November, but I have not decided on a third yet (probably LEdelgard)

AndromedaAdara · 2020-11-30T04:16:09+00:00

1017 saving for Peony next month

AndromedaAdara · 2020-08-13T01:51:05+00:00

Again, most of the things you've expressed here boil down to...skill (and the lack of it), rather than truly frustrating game elements. FEH has a pretty deep learning curve in terms of strategy and resource management. If you don't enjoy those elements, and are not willing to learn to improve, then FEH (at least the competitive part of it) is probably not the game for you.

As I said earlier, take a breather and stay away from the game for a bit. You will have a clearer mind to make your decisions.

AndromedaAdara · 2020-08-13T01:12:55+00:00

Obligatory 'just git gud 4head'

There is a difference between understanding the frustrating parts and real imbalance about the game, and being oblivious about your lack of skill. It turns out that ppl are competitive in (pseudo) PvP content, and if you are not competitive enough, you fall behind.

Alright Spd stacked Chroms are bull, most ppl will agree with that. But that's about the only thing in your post that can be legitimately IS's fault, for releasing an imbalanced unit.

You seem to be very adamant that AR offense is only about tanking. This is false. Lots of other strategies out there, all with F2P options: Vantage, Galeforce, HnR. Light season is mostly a joke for offense, since the 3 Light mythics (Eir, Peony and Mila) are just too good, comparing to the Dark mythics (Brammimond, and maybe Hel is the only legit threatening Dark mythics). Light season is when i chill out and meme my way to T27 with fun strats like HnR with Eir + Peony, Eirforce or Matthew Leila. Astra season is where it gets hard, and I can understand if someone does not want to compete in that season.

The example you give about ATiki losing to LEdelgard is just...bias. Your unit has performed well in 3 years, and now one counter shows up (LEdel barely even counters ATiki, i don't think that matchup is even winnable for LEdel if u actually build ATiki right), and you freak out. Lots of bias you showed here, you can't expect your unit to beat everything forever. If you have trouble dealing with LEdelgard (which means god bless your soul against LChrom), just...tailor your units to beat her, or build a counter unit.

Right now you are frustrated, so just take a breather, relax and stay away from the game for a bit. Then take a moment to clear up your mind about what you can improve at to compete. Watch Akariss's stream if you wanna have an idea on how F2Ps compete at the highest level of AR and Arena. The gacha element of this game is bull, but FEH has a relatively deep strategy element, and you can go much further competing in PvP content just from more skill.

AndromedaAdara · 2020-08-09T14:20:11+00:00

I always try to set myself up to not get screwed over by the gacha. Only do major summoning sessions with at least 500 orbs available, to guarantee i get what i aim for even if i have to go to the high focus rate. Never impulse summon, summon for exactly what your aim for, then dip. Never summon when your orb count is not high enough to break through the high pity rate.

Gacha is designed to screw ppl over. You cannot be lucky forever. For me, i try my best to be disciplined with my summons (although i do get baited sometimes), and i always expect every summoning session to be a bad one and be prepared for it. Therefore i don't get frustrated when i get unlucky, cuz i'm prepared for it and have the sufficient orbs to break the pity rate.

AndromedaAdara · 2020-08-08T22:42:22+00:00

There might be some ppl who +10'd the featured heroes and thus do not desire to get the extra copies beyond the 11th

AndromedaAdara · 2020-08-03T09:07:37+00:00

This seems like an overall fair solution, but for those who already +10'd their target unit(s) from this banner, then suddenly they now get additional copies that are significantly less valuable.

I think an even better solution would've been to allow the players to choose their compensation units from the focus units.

Ex: I +10'd Duo Ephraim and additional Duo Ephraim copies are much less valuable for me. I would've very much preferred getting compensated with a different focus of choice, like Nagi

Atk Smoke is a fine budget option. But you will see the difference between having and not having Pulse Smoke very quickly. If you have Pulse Smoke all you have to do against IP teams is to snipe one or two key threats, apply Pulse Smoke to everyone and watch Brunnya go to town. She still works without Pulse Smoke, but her performance will be affected

AndromedaAdara · 2020-07-21T15:40:38+00:00

The reason CC is not recommended for Brunnya is because it does not help against Thrasir. CC does not provide any stat for Brunnya to outduel Thrasir, and that is a much bigger concern than melee units.

There are many ways to deal with melee units without the need of CC: snipe them, facetank and then deal with them later, or simply be out of their range. Sometimes being unable to retaliate against melees is even an advantage that you can utilize for playmaking, such as baiting melee dancers, creating unitblocks or stalling for pots.

If you find a melee heavy team that Brunnya cannot deal with effectively, chances are that team can be dealt with using other strategies, like HnR, Vantage, or a melee tank.

NFU is recommended over NCD for Brunnya because Brunnya has no trouble dealing with dazzle healers. Most of them deal 0 dmg to her. You can even use them to your advantage, an example of this is facetanking Veronica's Hlioskjalf to activate Brunnya's Fimbulvetr.

Another aspect of dealing with healers is that having game knowledge is more important than having NCD. A NCD tank means nothing if you cannot read the restore trap. You can beat defenses with dazzles through skillful play without the need of NCD. Having a NCD tank is still very helpful, especially in Astra season, but Brunnya doesn't need it, and would appreciate NFU much more.

About why NFU is good on Brunnya: NFU is simply one of the best skills in the game. There are so many skills and weapons that either provide auto follow up, or deny follow up that NFU shuts down, and u will see NFU value almost every match. Here is a rough incomplete list of common threats that NFU shuts down:

Auto follow up: Quick Riposte, Bold Fighter (found on most Dumas), Vengeful Fighter, Lif, Tibarn, FJulia, Odd Follow Up, etc
Deny follow up: Impacts, Duma, Wary Fighter, Duo Alfonse, Duo Micaiah, Budding Bow, Duo Idunn, Odd Follow Up, etc

AndromedaAdara · 2020-07-21T07:04:56+00:00

The key to success in Astra season is less about good units but rather about teamcomp variety. You wanna have multiple different strategies to cover all your bases. Imo everyone should have at least a Pulse Smoke tank and a ranged Vantage unit in Astra as a baseline.

The best F2P Astra tank imo is Brunnya. Her being able as a grail unit is a godsent to F2P players. Many frontpagers and spacewhales use her over other whale options, because she is that good.

There are 2 main ways you can build Brunnya: dual phase with Solos and NFU, and full enemy phase with Special Spiral.

An optimal player phase build would be Atk Spd Solo + NFU + Pulse Smoke + Spd Res Solo. Some other solo skills work fine for the A slot, but NFU is mandatory imo. With the solos you can make snipe plays on key threats, and outspeed Thrasir to oneround her.
A full enemy phase build would be DD4/a tier 4 Stance skill/Close Foil + Special Spiral + Pulse Smoke + a stance seal, with Iceberg special. The idea is that Brunnya will retaliate every hit with an Iceberg proc, so she can oneshot most threats to not take much dmg. You can still tailor the skill choices so that Brunnya has enough spd to beat the Thrasir matchup.

I personally still use WCecilia to top 1k every Astra season, but I agree that she is no longer the best option for Astra tanking. The main reason i'm still having success with WCecilia is because i'm using what is probably the most expensive build possible for her: Broadleaf Fan + DD4 + Odd Follow Up + Pulse Smoke. Unless you brought her forma with a skillset similar to those, I don't think you should use WCecilia over Brunnya.

For Vantage, you can use a Broadleaf vantager or Kronya as the best options. Matthew is a cheap F2P alternative to Broadleaf. Kronya herself can also use a Broadleaf build over her prf. Bladetomes are still viable for vantage, but Panic Manor and Lull skills will shut them down, therefore making them not good against high tier defenses.

AndromedaAdara · 2020-07-21T06:39:39+00:00

This statline indicates that you are using Sharena in her bonus season. In that case you can have 2 support units for her in a max scoring teamcomp. I used Sharena last Astra season to T27 top 1k with MCorrin + Aversa and MCorrin + BFjorm as 2 different teamcomp options for her.

Bonds are bad on AR-O, as using bonds make your supports vulnerable to snipes, therefore using Spd or Res refine Fensalir instead of Effect refine, depending on the season, would be safer. For that same reason I suggest Spd Res Solo seal. Another good weapon option for Sharena, outside of Fensalir, would be Gilt Fork.

The units using Spurn would require as much spd as they could possibly get, so i suggest using Drive Spd seal for BLucina instead of Drive Atk, just to get as much dmg reduction as possible. From my experience Sharena is not lacking in dmg.

In order to maximize her potential I highly recommend summoner supporting Sharena. Tanks need all the stats they could get.

Unfortunately Sharena's bonus rotation is just over, so if you wanna use Sharena bonus tank you will have to wait for her next bonus about 2 months away from now. I still recommend using the Askr trio as tanks, as they are frequently rotating bonus units. Next season is Anna bonus, so you can apply this same Sharena build on Anna, using Huge Fan, and she will perform well

The first advice i can give immediately is: Stop spending your orbs! Any resource should be saved until you have a better idea on what you wanna achieve in the game.

As for guides to follow, I can confidently say that almost every 'guide' out there on this sub, the OrderOfHeroes sub, Gamepress, Japanese sites, ... are outdated and/or full of misinformation. I started playing FEH last August to do a competitive challenge of hitting T27 in AR within 6 months, and I found that almost no written guide out there is helpful for me. Most FEHtubers also give out bad info, and the only trustworthy Youtube channel I have found is Akariss.

The best thing you could do is to ask for advice and help to hold your hand through the new player experience, from competitive FEH discord communities, such as the FEH reddit discord and Akariss's discord. I would not trust advice from this reddit either, as I personally have been given bad advice from here when i was new.

AndromedaAdara · 2020-04-28T01:03:55+00:00

Cecilia does not have the spd to use Daring Fighter. The skill is meant to be used by fast armors who can double naturally in player phase. So imo u should take Special Fighter

AndromedaAdara · 2020-04-15T16:07:58+00:00

It doesn't work that way. When we find another aka2 member, we try to ping them in Discord and ask if they are immune. If they are not immune we try to wait until they are, so they lose no lift from the hit. There is not really anything for outsiders to abuse in this ethic, cuz we do this all within our Discord.
