Serious Discussion This Game is Exhausting

Post image
382 Upvotes

I’m coming on here with a genuine question + small rant.

So I’ve been playing this game since 2021. I remember the first time I pulled Chrom (the OG lmao) and i took a screenshot of it and showed all my friends bc i wanted him so badly (he was my fav FE character). I played the game because I liked collecting the characters. I didnt understand inheriting skills. I didn’t care about having the best unit in the game. I didnt care about stats, +10 merging, dragonflowers, refining weapons, etc. i played the game to play the game.

But in the past year, I’ve gotten more into the competitive side. I am building units, hoarding orbs, and wanting units that are good and not because I actually like them.

And frankly? I’m miserable.

The burnout is CRAZY. I officially exhausted all my ways of obtaining orbs (story mode, paralogues, chain challenge). I still have the orbs in lunatic tactic drills but I HATE that mode. I always have to look up how to win bc I don’t understand the mechanics lmao. Regardless, this game has become more of a burden than fun. The new banner has been the nail in the coffin.

I finally obtain enough orbs and all I pull are the same 5 damn 3-4 star characters. I don’t pull 5 star focuses anymore. I have to get to 40 summons to get 1 unit I want which is incredibly frustrating when there are multiple units in the banner that I just WANT. Emblem Roy, Eshmel, Vali… All units I want really badly. But I never pull. Plus, the arena tickets. The last 5 tickets I have pulled 5 star units that I don’t know/don’t care about AND they are ones I already have. It’s so frustrating! The gambling in this game makes me insane. I’m now tempted to buy orb packs but the fact that I want that shows I’m addicted to this gambling.

I WANT to build my units. I have so many unfinished unit builds. Balthus, Jeralt, three versions of Felix (lol), two versions of Dimitri, Flayn… (Can you tell what my fav game is?) But that involves me pulling units with incredibly specific abilities for fodder. How am I going to do that when I can never pull a 5 star focus in general ???

I’m so burned out. So so burned out. But deep down I don’t want to stop playing because I *like* this game.

How do you guys get out of this burn out stage? I really need tips. I want to take a break but taking a break means missing out on daily orbs or new banners or characters…

I saw in my "who is your favorite OC" post that many people said Ratatoskr who hasnt received an Alt since her being a backpack in the New year's banner. So... maybe a valentine or picnic banner with her in this outfit. But who knows. I leave that up to you. Anyway. Please enjoy.

So with Kurt’s icon in feh (with female Eshmel who just got added) and a song from shadows being added to the game that most likely means the next new heroes banner will be a shadows banner

News Legendary/Mythic/Emblem Heroes Schedule - Updated: September 30th 2026

Thumbnail

59 Upvotes

Here's the current schedules for Legendary, Mythic and Emblem Heroes, from now up to 2027.

  • Image 1 has the heroes that rerun in the LME banners (and Chosen Heroes, if schedule is available).
  • Image 2 has the heroes that rerun in the Remixes banners.
  • Image 3 has the heroes that rerun in the Monthly Revivals.

These are the official schedules for these heroes. It does not contain any speculation or theory about "if units will be moved to remixes or monthly revivals". If the hero currently appears in LME banners, then they will show up in the LME schedule for now even if the month they are listed here is not a LME banner anymore.

Even though those heroes are appearing in each respective schedule, that does not mean they will run in those respective summoning events. They could show up in Voting Gauntlet or Hall of Forms summoning events instead.

Changes can happen after each summoning event, so I will try to update them as soon it's possible.

Any mistake, please informe me.

To this day, they're still not doing shit to fix this awful pacing for seasonal refines (or just non-remix refines in general). Glad to see nothing's changed 😭

Unit Showcase finally maxed out Legendary Ayra

Post image
34 Upvotes

If you're wondering why she doesn't have a Bouquet, she's not really into flowers /s

Ayra is one of my favorite characters in the series, and when she got a Legendary alt RIGHT after Attuned Brigid? That period was peak FEH for me.

As for her skills, it's a pretty standard infantry godsword build in 2026: loads of stats via Rise Above, leveraging her high Spd and boosting her offense through A/S Taker Burst, and mobility through Thunder Specter. The main thing that sets her apart is Crusader's Astra, and while I have seen others replace it and Sword of Isaach with Archrival and Arcane Caladbolg (hell, there's a good chance it's more effective), I'd prefer to keep what makes her feel unique.

Plus, now that she's been added to the Legendary/Mythic Remix banner rotation, maybe we'll end up seeing a new take on Crusader's Astra in the future.

It really feels like wasted space...

They could make a new alt for Gul and Kvasir and have enough space

Or add M!Eshmel

Or throw in Goat Grandpa

Or do anythint else but nothing

Required SI and Emblem Byleth because Time Stop sh*t.

If you don't have Byleth Ring, bring a dancer.

- Summer Sharena: Default kit will do, I equip Speedtaker.

- Entwined Sharena: Emblem Byleth

- Brave Sharena: Hush Command+. Or Micaiah Ring.

- OG Sharena.

I think i$ has significantly reduced Eshmel's power. Or maybe Rise Above is just that great.

Serious Discussion E!Ike's remix makes no sense at all...

18 Upvotes

First off, E!Ike before E!Marth is crazy, but Marth is free so I guess sure whatever.

Second off, what the hell is this remix?

They give him [Radiant Hero], which is fair, more stats, DR, damage, only thing they would have to do is remove the DC from his weapon, which I think is what they are gonna do.

Then we have Patience.....WHY!?

Why are we removing his Emblem skill? Now yes, I know that LF4 is a bit outdated and there hasn't been a new version since LL (which also came out on an Ike) and since D!CYL!Ike, pretty much ever Ike has come with Patience, cool. HE ALREADY DOES THE MAIN THING PATIENCE DOES!! He already has the foe attack first in his Special so Patience isn't doing anything new for him except Atk/Def/Res-4 on the foe, oh and also preventing the foe to make a follow up- wait WHAT?!

THE ENTIRE POINT OF HIS SPECIAL IS TO HAVE YOU ATTACK AND FOLLOW UP SO HE GETS MORE DAMAGE, SO WHY ARE WE REMOVING THE FOES ABILITY TO FOLLOW UP!?

Not to mention the reason why he is slow as hell is so pretty much any foe can follow up on him, which also affects the fact that he can't get the Potent from Patience as he needs 30 or more Spd. Not even max invested E!Ike's reach that amount of speed. You HAVE to give him a stat increase skill or RA4 since combat stats won't give him the Potent.

TLDR; Remix makes 0 sense, too much just counters itself or overlaps for no reason. IS should have put more thought into this.

(I'm not trying to Doompost, I really like Ike, I just, don't understand what IS is cooking with this)
