anyone else feel like they’re running Seasonal heroes into the ground???

Answers

Well, it was because we were in the holiday season. So many holidays at once. I think they're gonna taper off.

There's special heroes on the calendar for February.

Think seasonal shit is here to stay.

What makes it even worse is new unit banners have been just 3 units lately. Stupid were geting more banner seasonals than new units.

I mean..it's to be expected near the end of the year since things like Halloween/Christmas are typically in gacha games. I don't mind seasonals, I just wish they'd stop using Camilla, Lucina, and Azura.

We have 4 Lucina's | 3 Camilla's | 3 Azura's.

Let's not, IS. Let's not.

we still need one more camilla and azura :v

You mean one more Azura... that isn't a dancer so I can use her offensively ;_;

And raise the unit limit to 8 so I can use all of them at once.

I still need at least 4 more Lucina.

Are you upset because you're unable to obtain them or because it ruins your arena experience? I understand what you're getting at, but I also know that this is a great way for them to not only make money and flourish, but it is IS giving us something, as the game would be far less lively without them. Sure, they need to introduce new shit and fast, but this allows them a safety net for a longer duration.

I don't think that's an excuse. They can introduce new characters without them having to be constant seasonals, let alone re-using the same 3 characters (as someone mentioned, Lucina, Camilla & Azura). Not only that, but it's actually a bit counterproductive, since it takes a bit of their worth away. Aren't they supposed to be rare and limited? Their re-introduction on the "Legendary" Banners doesn't help.

They are also harder to catch on Legendary banners because of the two additional units in the color pool. So you can end up with a character that is less desirable. A possible fix for this would be to split the banner into segments like:

Block A, Block B and Block C

They did this with first CYL in Late August/September.

It was just the time of the year that gave us so many seasonals. Basically from Halloween to the New Years are guaranteed to have seasonal units in Gachta games, since they make bank on these limited time units. I hope we don’t get more for a while, since there haven’t been enough regular units for the past two months.

I enjoy seasonals, Flyzura just didn't hit me like Axura did though. God I was hyped for her, just this new one wasn't quite revolutionary. Flying dancer, yes, but no new fancy weapon.

Seasonals have been going downhill in general as in having the most insane new units. But, if IS can get their heads out of their *cough* and give us some NEW characters, I think we'll all survive. It's just the blandness of reused characters like Lucina, Robin, Chrom, and Camilla that is killing the fun IMO.

(*would not mind a nice Elise for valentine's, but please, do a new Ninian or something...)

I don't really like seasonals.
Because it encourages QUALITY skills to be locked to units
that will NOT go back into 5* summoning pool once the banner expires.
Also, as a F2P player do not like this trend of 40% seasonal TT bonus units.

its gonna end around march i guess or whenever easter, its going by holidays basically and easter is pretty much the last, everything from that point to september theres no holidays so you can probably see like 4 good months without any seasonal units, and i think someone said that there have been many banners with 3 units tbh thats good too cuz at least we get a tempest trial like rn where we get plenty of orbs and a free 5* unit, theyll probably do another banner like the performance dancer banner last year but aside from that inbetween the empty season i dont think we'll get much of seasonal banners in that time

Odds are we'll get more bride and swimsuit units over the summer, so very low chance we go 4 months without seasonal units. I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't any seasonal units in March.

Seasonal are most annoying when they're powercreep. I would appreciate seasonals more if they included more games for representation.

THIS! THIS! THIS!
So much THIS!

I do agree, they have bogged down the game with limited release units, but unfortunately there are a finite amount of heroes in the Fire Emblem franchise. If they release all of them instead of peppering in seasonal heroes, then they would be able to only give out seasonal heroes rather than new heroes (or they would have to come up with new heroes on the fly). I understand what they’re doing, and just roll with it.

It's been pretty consistent at this point. The game just came out last year and had 7 monthly seasonal banners since then. I personally think it's fine.

Instead of adding seasonal s they should add more actually new characters.

I agree wholeheartedly with this statement.
At the very least if they are going to do seasonals they can share the love with other games in the franchise.

As I said earlier I do not like seasonal banners.

The Christmas seasonal was a prime example of FUCKERY.
First time I ever had to roll on a seasonal.
Get off bannered twice in the same session rolling for Winter Robin and Lissa. Make a second attempt a week later get only one Christmas Tharja (and a loli Tiki) at a 4.00% or 4.50% pity rate. I blame myself honestly for falling for that shit legendary banner that I had to abandon with 80 orbs invested in with nothing to show for it. Taught me a lesson and I will never roll on multiple banners at ONCE again.

I am certainly not the only one with this misfortune.
An example of such a case.

Which brings me to question of my own.
Why do seasonal banners have such a high rate to get off-banners heroes?
