    On the one hand, would love to see Pent and Louise and Tanith etc. On the other... Ugh goofy costumes. Their commitment to having fully half of the new banners in the game be seasonals is really annoying. Pent and Louise deserve their normal versions to be there instead.

    I do love the "Isolation" effect. Dance counter is long overdo. Putting it as an HP requirement on a non inheritable healer weapon is weird though.

    That just gives it a check. I like it having some gate

    I really hate the healer AI when doing auto-battle.

    It just wants to fling the healer out front to blast some unit and then get killed. And removing the weapon isn’t even that great anymore, since the good ones have additional effects ON the wep.

    So tired of my healers ignoring a hurt unit to go attack some other unit.

    Dancers do that a lot too, but not as bad since most of them are melee.

    Two options I’d like: A checkbox on a unit to “only defend”, and a “stand your ground” for the whole team when auto-battle.

    My solution to this is to take off their weapon if I'm gonna autobattle. It usually works pretty good. I agree it would be nice to not have to do this though (afterall their healing is based on the attack stat)

    I feel like they could easily allow some ai options for tuning.

    Aggressive
    Defensively
    Playing to advantages
    Baiting etc.

    It would be cool if they hd some learning mode where it gives you a situation and sees how you deal with it

    It's annoying because enemy healers don't do that. If there's an ally they can heal and an enemy they can attack both in range, they always go for the heal.

    Edit: Actually, I can't remember if I've seen what they do if they're the only one within attacking range; they might attack in that case, I know that's the case for non-healer enemies with Assist skills.

    So us Belgians got the news on the bulletin board that we won't be able to play the game past 27th of August. This really sucks.
    Belgian gambling laws really has em spooked if they would rather stop the entire service than, lets say, disable the buy with money function. :-/

    Wow, that's BS. Is there any way for you to fool the game to think you're from a different region?

    Side note, this banner hates me. Had to spend waaaaaaaay too many orbs to get everyone. Kept getting a shitton of pity breakers. Not that the pity breakers in the new pools are bad anymore, but still.. I'd rather have a Tanith than another Selkie :P Also my Tanith and Sigrun IVs were kind of garbage. I did get +HP for Fjorm which I think might be optimal with her weapon (it felt weird cuz I also got a +ATK and I ate it...)

    My pity breakers:
    -Nailah
    -2 Leannes
    -Selkie
    -F. Morgan
    -Mordecai (the 5* version)
    -Laevatein
    -Zelgius

    Installing a VPN may be the only way forward. I have yet to test it.

    This is an issue for a lot of gacha games. I play Girls Frontline, and IIRC gambling restrictions on the horizon spooked them away from even officially releasing a client for Europe. They have an English server, but IIRC the client is only available in app stores for residents of North America and Australia. IIRC European and South American players need to download the client and updates from third party apk distributors, and that the process of purchasing anything from the cash shop requires jumping though some hoops since purchases are handled via Google play. Fortunately for them, spoofing their location is a bit easier since GFL endorses play on pc emulators.


    The question is, how will FEH block you? If it's via your ip address then VPNs should suffice. If it's because your app store account or Nintendo account is associated with a Belgian address, then you might be in a stickier situation.

    I was thinking along the same lines, feeling uneasy about every step.
    My google account is set to Belgium, so is my Nintendo account, so are my payment options (not that this one matters much since it's all EU wide).
    Google allows you to change country once a year. Not sure what the fallout would be on this one - I use it for everything. The Nintendo setting can be changed relatively easily, though I'm really unsure what the consequences would be.

    Not sure if this is correct but:
    https://serenesforest.net/2019/05/21/belgium-fire-emblem-heroes-unavailable-27th-august-2019/
    For those of you in Belgium who still play the game, there is a fairly simple way to get around the ban before it happens. Assuming you’ve linked your game to a Nintendo Account, all you have to do is log in via the website, then edit the “country/region of residence” in your profile.

    This will allow you to keep playing the game after the ban is in place. Changing your region may have some minor side effects though. For instance, Gold Coins from your original region will become temporarily unavailable if your new region has a different currency.

    It seems I'm to become a Dutchman.
    The availability of the app on the play store is still in question though. This may involve having to download the apk for it with each update.

    Wow, I've actually managed to create a successful beast-focused AR defense without having Tibarn. Instead I use Lethe as a Tibarn-lite to start the carnage. She sits next to Leanne and Naesala, protected by the fort and traps on an infrequently used terrain (snowdust). The key is the follow-up denial, just like for Tibarn's sturdy impact. If she survives, it's a major problem for the enemy.

    I have evil LAzura and Hardy bearing Yune in play as well, so it can handle the vantage shenanigans.

    Just had 5 straight defense wins with 4-5 kills. Of course, I've been losing some this season too! Just can't handle infantry pulse teams. I don't have a good galeforce team (or any galeforce team) for AR offense, so if my tanks get nuked I am done.

    Can you post a screenshot of your defense team? I'm contemplating something similar.

    Wow, this really is the worst banner in history. Two middling healers and a C-tier sword lord, none of which with inheritable skills.

    If they ever posted the revenue numbers per banner, I'd love to see this one.

    The AR skills are just trash in general. I'm most likely giving mine distant counter

    I do wonder if her weapon counts C skill interactions. I assume so?

    Well the only Legendary hero scheduled for June is Ryoma, who presumably will run beside New Year's Hrid. That leaves a slot open for Tibarn! ...Or Hot Springs Elise. Orrr a new red Legendary Hero.

    Actually, July only has one red slot open and Elise and Valentine's Ike are probably competing for that slot as it is. And since every seasonal banner this year has had a red unit, and red is so crowded and will eventually receive new heroes.... Tibarn might never be on a Legendary banner. At least not for a long time.

    I had forgotten how much I hate sniping single colors in banners. Everything costs 5 orbs.

    It took me 160 orbs to get another L!Tiki and Naga! While it was nice to get Naga, the return rate on orbs to 5* was not good for a legendary banner. She’s -spd, but at least I got her!
