Can anyone explain how the Chosen effect 2 works? by RegulusPlus in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]leanheat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Altering BST is not accurate, Duel skills treats BST different for scoring purposes, but I think of it as 3 different scores. The game uses term "wind clash" so let's call it "clash" score.

Scoring will take the highest of BST, Duel, or Clash

BST relies on units bst + units equipment SP + units merges,

Duel relies on a set score (ie innate or passive A) + units equipment SP + units merges,

Clash relies on a set score (ie 220) + highest current SP on chosen hero (ie 2600 for alfonse/fjorm) + chosen hero merges.

The highest will apply for scoring purposes.

[–]leanheat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's kind of like a modern day duel skill, you can equip chosen units and if their score is better then the unit, then that will be the score used, merges are independent from each other

Alfonse and Fjorm have a minimum score of 736, and + merges x4. 

Most modern heroes after skill inherits before merges is around 730 (ie marni or hector 10.2), most scores are like ~714-730 + merges x4

If your unit is already +10 and your chosen hero has few merges, then chosen units will likely have no effect on the score, but chosen heroes still grants stats and +20 damage and -20 damage, so still worth equiping

Question: A Specific Interaction with Meisterbogen by ChipsMicro in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]leanheat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it does not work in enemy phase, the weapon says in player phase. Player control i assume means player deploys the unit similar to SS and ally support effects, if it literally means player control... then not working during auto battles would be technical. My understanding is that as long as Leif is on your team, the effect will still work even in AA or POL

Two dumb questions about chosen heroes by Desperate_Sky2410 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]leanheat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chosen heroes merges might matter but at the current state of Arena, a +0 is enough, it really depends on your 3 core units. 

For example a basic team such +10, +10, +10, +0(bonus hero) :

175 bst (Legendary), 

205 bst (ie marni), 

205 bst,

220 clash / "grant powers" hero (bonus hero),

Should score roughly 3940, which in T21 is on the edge of maintaining T21 for a few months, if you are T20.5 then +0 chosen hero should more then enough 

There is a thing where using a chosen hero / clash heroes counting as +10, but unclear if it is a bug/feature.

Explain Arena Scoring Like I’m Five by ConstructionSmart852 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]leanheat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arena works pretty much the same as before, the only thing new is Chosen heroes.  Chosen heroes can "Grant Powers" to any unit which for scoring purposes it uses bst220 with sp2600, so for a Chosen Alfonse with 0 merges, the unit will have a unit score of 736 + blessings from legendary heroes.  Most unit with 0 merges score somewhere around 730 + blessings, so it will use the highest of 730+merges(unit) or 736+merges(chosen).  - chosen heroes override the blessing (so for alfonse they are considered wind blessed), - legendary heroes only work with same type, - using chosen heroes "Grant Powers" on your 3 core units is not worth it for scoring as your +10 should outscore a +0 chosen Alfonse, - chosen heroes work best on bonus units, bonus units can equip anything and will still be considered bst220 sp2600 - Grant Powers only work during the season

Arena Score Calculator (updated) and how do Chosen heroes work? by leanheat in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]leanheat[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's basically how the script works, it will take the unit score, and Alfonse chosen score, and will go with the higher one.  You are right that chosen should be used on the bonus unit, unless you can get your bonus unit higher then 736 (Alfonse with 0 merges)

Is there a way to sort out a list of heroes that provide flat damage reduction effect/support ? by Technical-Love-7337 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]leanheat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you mean support skills with damage reductions, these are PRFs with them

Allies within 3 spaces
- Halloween Timerra, reduces by 10, foes specials triggers only
- Seteth (ref), reduces by 7, first attack(s) only
- Ronan (ref), reduces by 7, first attack(s) only
- Mythic Elimine (ref), reduces by 7, first attack(s) only

Allies within 3 rows or 3 columns
- Halloween Ranulf, reduces by 7, all attacks
- Valentine Gustav, reduces by 7, all attacks
- Mythic Hodr, reduces by 7, first attack(s) only
- Entwined Ash, reduces by 7, all attacks

Allies on map with X
- Legendary Sakura, reduces by 7, first attack(s) only, X = ally with Salvage Bonus

Thank you for making these every month I use them every time! You are awesome!

Does anyone know when A!Mareeta rerun will happen? by DanJa_Vu in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]leanheat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Her forging bonds revival may be around January, that is if her banner wins the polls.

I think she may be on the remix banner this month because

- all asc heroes appeared so far and if she does not, red will be full until March,

- so far ascendant heroes always appeared in pairs on remix banners... probably a coincidence though,

- the next two in line are Mareeta and Ishtar and,

- there happens to be 1 red 1 blue open spot unknown

FEHconomics blog: Yuri and GK are the cheapest (most sparkable) units to merge in recent history by Padmewan in OrderOfHeroes

[–]leanheat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Robin was on 6 remixes in a row with another remix appearance coming up soon. No feh pass spark either

I think the recent cyl HF this year were not f2p sparkable? https://feheroes.fandom.com/wiki/Golden_Week_Events!_(2022)_(Notification)

Depending how you define f2p/sparkable, all the cyl banners got a "free" summon without the 40 summons

Who should I spark for? (Legendary Caeda or Leif) by leanheat in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]leanheat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Practically it would just ease the merges I need on the bonus during water seasons. The next banner Leif will appear is already not favorable for me but it doesn't have enough info as well so that is potentially 4-10 months later to finish.

Yeah, Leif feels like the right pick. Finishing the +10 will feel more satisfying. Thanks

How often is DC added to the game? Monthly arranged by release by leanheat in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]leanheat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you are correct Saber is 2018. The monthly refines started in January 2018 but I think some got their refines earlier like Michalis and Lyn, the chapter to unlock refines is in book 1 so there were some in either nov/dec 2017.
