A banner in the life of an f2p...

Spent a total of 236 orbs on the CYL banner for a +atk -spd Celica, a +hp -res Ephraim, and finally tonight, a +def -atk Veronica. Getting 3 out of 4 is great and I'm happy, it means I can use my free summon on Hector so he can finally make my armor team into something worthwhile. But spending that many orbs only to get units with *those* IVs? Kind of demoralizing. The units are still useable, of course, but certainly less than ideal (especially Veronica). At least -atk Veronica and -spd Celica clearly deserve each other.

+Atk/-Spd Celica - Merge fodder
+HP/-Res Ephraim - Merge fodder
+Def/-Atk Veronica - Close Guard fodder, maybe.

I have a -Atk Veronica and she's perfectly fine. I gave her an Attack +3 A slot skill and either an Attack +3 seal or a Speed +3 seal and she's ready to go. She's the best healer in the game, and is perfectly fine and usable with practically every IV set.

Celica reaches, what, 45 speed with her 'recommended' build? Not to mention dual Drive Spd thanks to the Drive Spd seal from this current Tempest Trial.

Honestly all these units are so good that I'm not too fussed about imperfect IVs, still gonna use them all, but it feels a bit silly that both Celica and Veronica ended up with such bad banes. And Ephraim's IVs are fairly useless to him, but at least they're not truly harmful.

Veronica with -att sucks, but her debuffing capability is still really good. Maybe +def will at least help her take a hit or two?
Celica is so good, even with -spd her speed is still really high, so she is still a good unit, especially with +att
Ephraim will do good regardless of his ivs, though -res hurts against mages

At least you didn’t get a -def+hp hector like me.( brave hector of course)

Ouch, that sucks. I'll definitely count my blessings.

With Veronica, that's pretty much what I'm hoping. I'm most interested in her for her utility anyway, and given that I want to put her on a team with Celica and possibly Ephraim too, it's not a team that will be hurting for firepower.

With Celica at this point I feel like +atk almost makes up for -spd anyway. She may not always get four hits, but she'll get two that hit *really hard*.

The summon pull is so random. I wanted only Ephraim (he was my choice) and Hector (neutral Ivs) and got them both. I usually dont save orbs and gdt EVERYTHING I want. Also wanted Myrrh and got her 2 times in 2 days (with a BIke and Sigurd pitybreakers. Sometimes I get them with bad IVs and sometimes with good IVs. This game is so random xD

I got decently lucky with +Atk-Res Celica, Neutral Ephraim and -Atk+Spd Veronica in around 140 orbs
