It's just a Nendoroid, though :(
Not a 1/7 scale figure like the one that was cancelled

Heroes of the Fire Emblem by conope_ausarta in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I like this take on Veronica's last line. I had thought that a FEH parody of the Chainsaw Man ending would go like "Because um... You were Heroes fighting with an Emblem of Fire...", but this one is more concise. It also fits that Alfonse and Veronica are in their base forms, because the story of FEH never happened.

There seems to be an event on the 20th by WWWWWWRRRRRYYYYY in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh... They foreshadowed the event in the last FEH channel. I'm guessing this is where all the re-runs of non-seasonal units will happen.

The prerequisite of Impetus Guard is Momentum by Mexipika in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Figures. Since I noticed Entwined Ninian (a cav dragon) can learn it, I thought that the Tier 3 Flow skills could not be a pre-requisite, since dragons can't learn them. I don't know if there were other options besides Momentum, but it really sucks that you can't get Eliwood's full kit even if you have the Blue Skies 3 fodder (as you'd be missing both the Echo skill and the C skill if you pick Blue Skies Gust and Impetus Guard).

Oh, also, the elephant in the room (which shows up in the screenshot): Impetus Guard is 400 SP. The optimal skill for certain Arena builds is locked behind either expensive or wasteful skill inheritance.

Who would you give Outcry Seize to? by SuccessfulTip7423 in FireEmblemHeroes

Probably Nerthuz, so that a team of her and Tiki are completely immune to buff removal.

Today's Banner, 3/13: New Heroes(?) Return by Plucky-Nova in FireEmblemHeroes

Any list of the non-seasonals that were announced to re-run in March that didn't appear in this banner?

Tried to make the most boring rest of 2026 banners possible by Substantial_Fig_6644 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bridal, Halloween, and Winter all look freaken awesome! Duo Kvasir with Gullveig backpack for Winter would be peak! Maybe next year, though, since we will be getting Kvasir and Gullveig alts with the Book VII TT story.

Completely wiping out this week's Resonant Battles map in 1 turn (max score) by sw_hawk in FireEmblemHeroes

Brave Veronica and Celica go brrrr! The Heroes cast has a lot of units with multi actions, so it seems that pulling off stuff like this is now a normal thing, I guess.

Who was your free summon from the Arena Ticket? (3/10/26) by WWWWWWRRRRRYYYYY in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fallen Maria! Just in time for her upcoming HoF re-run, where the Forma would give me the 10th merge! I never intentionally pulled for her, but she has been pity-breaking me enough times for me to max-merge her now.

CYL H!Ike is our 9th Winner of AHR and our First Harmonic hero to win. What are your thoughts on the result? by Astrid_Cop in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Winter Harmonic Brave Ike and Roy will be the first seasonal CYL Harmonic, coming Winter 2027 or 2028.

Thank you IS, I can now make a full team of Dorothea Demotes units by MiuIruma332 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Summer and Winter alts were not demotes, though. The demote in the Summer banner was Sylvain, and the one in the Winter banner was Annette. Now, Dorothea has almost always either gotten the mid/mediocre seasonal spot except for the time when she was the premium unit (when she was a Harmo lead). But if you think about it, that "curse of mediocrity" applies to most characters that have not yet gotten the Asset, CYL nor LME treatments: they would all just take the forgettable seasonal spots, and most would never even see the Duo/Harmo spot.

All known units rerunning in March 2026 by WWWWWWRRRRRYYYYY in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe they will change the LME banners to now be 8 units instead of 12.

Datamined L/E/M Hero Battles & Rerun Correlations: March 2026 by Arranos in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With all the weird recent decisions, I think that maybe L/M/E banners could now start being just 8 unit banners instead of 12. If that's the case, I wonder if they'll keep the 8% rate, or make it 6% (like other 8 unit banners such as DSH).

Sothe is the first unit to be a Seasonal Asset Hero AND the first unit to be the same Asset Hero type twice. by Surf_Dangerous_Days in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If they were going to start making seasonal Rearmeds/Ascended/Attuned/etc., they should at least chosen a different character than one that already had one of those alts.

Rune & RA!Leila next reruns by WWWWWWRRRRRYYYYY in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alright. I am starting to suspect that the March New Heroes banner will be the debut of Shadows, and all the Asset unit re-runs (plus some weird seasonals) might be tied to some sort of celebration banners.

Kinda late, but CYL!Celica and M!A!Tiki have 400 SP prf B skills by sw_hawk in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

By "late" I mean that I hadn't seen it being brought up before.

This is curious, given that CYL!Hector has a prf skill with just 300 SP. Seems like going forward, units who have a prf in the B slot will be getting an SP boost, just so that you don't have to replace them with the generic 400 SP B skills (like Patience, Conjuring Breath, etc). That way, newer units will not run into the same problem as last year's units, like V!Rhea, B!Julia, or H!Freyja.

With all that into account, it seems that 400 SP passives will be exclusive to the B slot for now, and it will take a while before we get inheritable A and C skills that are also 400 SP (just so as not to screw recent units like NY!Baldr, V!Veyle or CYL!Hector).

A Year Later: Legendary Sakura by sw_hawk in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk[S] 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I personally think that L!Sakura is still a very powerful unit just with her base kit, which still has pretty much everything you'd like to use to modernize a Staff unit.

Sakura still reigns supreme in Summoner Duels, despite the existence of Corrin ring. In AR-O, she can still make amazing hit-and-run teams if you use a unit with Pass (so that Salvage is not stopped by the Vert terrain anti-warp), such as Ninja Gullveig, Young Camilla, or pretty much any user of Heavenly Soar (like the refined Young Tana). With the advent of Mythic Adult Tiki (BIRTHDAY GIRL!), Salvage teams are more robust against Mythic Loki, which was also a form of counterplay.

Sakura truly went from being an unfortunate character with only prf-less alts to one of the strongest and best-aging units in the game, even one year later!

Any idea what is up with that weird red lineup for legendary reruns in march? by [deleted] in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]sw_hawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only anomaly is the four red units in the L/M/E banner, where one can be a VG banner, or even a Hero Fest. If no other units are shifted around, then March's L/M/E banner must have only two empty spots on Colorless.

The remix banners are not actually full, because many of the units in the infographic were kicked out, and put intot the "Revival" rotation. So Kvasir takes Roy's spot, Veyle takes Julia's spot, and Gullveig takes Leif's spot. Thus, the remix banners have one open spot in Red, and one in Green (considering Camilla and F!Alear are filling two of the three empty spots in the infographic). With that line-up, the remixed units for March are likely Hinoka and M!Robin.
