I completely forgot to mention that voice lines have been datamined for Hrid. Considering he is not the next GHB that increases his chances at being the next Legendary Hero. Or maybe we’ll get him in another way. Either way seems like he will be joining his sisters somewhat soon.

Surtr = Steady stance 4
Steady stance exists*

Me: Arden is gonna get an early christmas gift I suppose.

If Ylgr is faster than an opponent, then she is guaranteed to double with Sylgr.

I know the 4th tiers of skills is a blatant powercreep, but Steady Stance got a whole new affect unlike Death Blow, which just received two extra points of ATK. Even Sinmara isn’t that bad because it’s a Prf weapon, Steady Stance 4 is Guard+Steady Stance so the utility gap between tier 3 and 4 is way larger than Death Blow’s 3 and 4.

The only thing I’m worried about is the meta of really rare units having skills that are so good they’re actually two or even three skills simultaneously, all of which skills would be inheritable.

I don’t mind 4th tier skills but introducing tiers that straight up add another skill into the same slot could get scary.

Young Azura, and Ylgr can sync extremely well with each other.

Young Azura being a mage unit with relatively low stat spread can always enjoy backup by a more offensive unit, and being a dance unit can obviously provide a lot of utility. Meanwhile Ylgr covers for Azura's weakness against Red units as well due to her having an advantage against them. Azura's weapon also requires an ally being nearby her to make full use out of similiarly to Ylgr. With their requirements of being next an ally it's almost like they were made to be in the same team.
They're both also kids and the depressed child Azura needs a friend.

Strange. My surtr is 3 star and has Reposition as only fodder Skill :/

[argonaut]

I just thought of something evil for Surtr
Run him with Fallen Takumi, Garon, and whoever our Blue Unit with AOE Chip damage at the start of a turn is with all of them having AOE specials and Savage Blow/Poison Strike.
Welcome to indirect damage city.
I'd call it the Splash Zone but I think someone may have already used that name.

[Anthony-dycv]

Surtr is why you fodder MCorrin’s from Adrift unique skill to make every battle a simple speed check. Then you give it to a red nuke and pair them with a dancer to nuke Surtr before he can activate his effects. Thankfully this man is an armor unit so you can outrun him if he doesn’t have armor march. If he is running vengeful fighter, just use bladetome Calvary with desperation on your nuke. Idk these are just ideas that popped in my head to counter. I don’t know much about FE obviously, but hope it sparks an idea for you reading.

When will IS realize that powercreep in every banner drives away players which slowly kills gachas.
You'd think that with the revenue this year being noticeably worse than last year, especially this quarter they'd have already realized.

[johanngonzalezmunoz]

I always wanted to +10 Legault. I think I'll give him Sorcery Blade. It should help him hit hard with The Cleaner, Glimmer and Desperation.

[odindarkll]

Sorcery blade on dagger units and DC prf weapons will be pretty interesting. I imagine Sothe, Ryojma, and Ike can make use of this skill, for example. Brave weapons are also good synergies to consider

[kiet]

Been waiting for this. Quality opinion as always.

[LordAtmaF]

Hopefully my triangle adept armorsmasher Tobin will crush Surtr like he did in the storymodes.

[d_fendr]

Can't wait for steady breath 2, where you get +6 defense if foe attacks, special cooldown -1, distant counter, and adaptive damage.

[CrashAriMPNO]

Sorcery Blade could find great use for tank busters who want to hit res like most armored units. If the effect counts staff allies, you get a sustaining set up as well.

[toshio]

The next banner is gonna be a legendary banner... I think we're gonna get the Ice Prince which would then allow us to have all of Book 2 Units. Plus it would make sense since his two sister are legendary units.

[Vinardo]

Got a +Spd/-Atk Ylgr for a free summon and I'm glad that her weapon and A skill patches up her atk alongside Atk/Def bond

[Debloko]

I believe the bodies on the ground are Sharena and Fjorm. The body near Alfonse has a headgear very similar to Sharena's.

[Suzduko]

One important thing to note about Ylgr's special weapon is that, since it only requires Ylgr to have 1 more point of speed than her opponent to grant the attack and speed bonus, and the bonus is 4 points, she's guaranteed to double anybody that's slower than her unless a skill that prevents follow-up attacks, like Wary Fighter, is in effect.

[alphx]

Hey, at least IS isn't planning on making the last chapter of Book 3 have all the Legendary Heroes. That would be worse than anything sinmara can do.
