I AM SO TORN

I've been saving up orbs for the eventual Choose Your Legends banner (Ike, Lyn, Roy, Lucina) and I'm hoping these units will actually stay as swords and not be reclassed (believe it or not, Lucina is the only good non-GHB sword unit I have, and I got her from 250 orbs on the Awakening Tempest banner).

However, they just released what I think is a really good banner. I'd love to pull some merges for my 5-star F Corrin and Nino, as well as get Sanaki for the first time (at the very worst, she has TA if I get a bad IV and don't have the patience or orbs to pull for another one). Of course, I'm also paranoid that if I drop all my orbs on this banner, they'll release a QR or LnD banner shortly after.

I don't know if I should save my orbs for my greatly needed CYL sword lords or spend them on this Hone Atk banner.

I think this banner is a bait.

Seriously Nino, Sanaki and F Corrin are so common ! Save your orbs :))

Sanaki common? I don't even have one!

Yeah, you're right about Nino and F Corrin though. I guess I was just excited that I wouldn't have to spend feathers for merges. We're all too familiar with bait banners as well.

Okay, maybe I've exaggerated a bit about Sanaki's commonness.

The other two definitely don't make for a good banner but if you need a Sanaki you should try your chance at pulling nice reds :)

Would not pull . Most in time this skill Banners are Horrible simple reason only 3 Heroes to pull out. You may get only 1 good Hero out there here example Sanaki.
Yes Nino and F Corrin are good but you can get them with 3 or 4 star version and have with that a better chance for IVs and then just make them to a 5 Star up.

It sounds like any of the focus heroes would be a luxury for you more than a real improvement to your roster. I'd stand pat.

I was actually going to ask the same question... hate seeing people saying 'but Nino is so common!??!??1?' when I've only gotten one, total, and she's +def/-res... also my F! Corrin is okay but not awesome and I don't have a Sanaki... I was considering going in on this banner for a better (read: usable) Nino but now I'm not sure with all the negativity.

No idea how everyone seems to have at least 4 of every character in the game. 'Oh, just use your spare Hector' like yeah, ok.

Report

My Nino is +spd/-def and my F Corrin is +def/-res so I definitely got lucky there. Despite Nino being common she does seem tough to pull (at least from my experience). I don't even think I've ever pulled a Beruka (another supposedly common green unit), and I've pulled just one Cherche (+atk/-res) that I also 5 starred.

But yeah, with everyone's comments taken in consideration I'm actually just going to save my orbs.

But its the truth, nino IS comnon.
I was in a similar situation to you not long ago, with only one nino, and not great ivs.
Now, 1 month later, i have a 5* +spd -hp nino+2, with four extra 3* waiting to be merged too.
Be patient, the only real pull here is snacki, this banner is bait.

Sorry, I understand your frustration ... Everyone seems to talk about how common Hinata is as a fury fodder ... i just pulled ONE in like 300 orbs total.

As in every randomized pulls, you are not going to get the same as your neighbour ... Fact is that Nino (findable at 3*, 4* and 5*) is quite common. If you didn't pull any yet, you will someday.

Personnaly I've drawn just one Hinata but 5 Nino's (none of them with optimal IVs, I'm currently using a 4*+Atk -HP).

Depending on what you already have in stock I would not recommend pulling. Sanaki is definitely not common, but Corrin and Nino have decent chances of dropping in any banner all willy nilly.

If you want Sanaki, I say go for it, increased chances. But if yer doing it for Corrin/Nino, I'd recommend saving it for later. You'll get them without too much effort if you blast all orbs on a REALLY good banner. Sure, they might not be 5 stars, but I don't feel like they are worth getting an instant 5 stars.

Personally for me, they are more like Heroes that you should work up to be good. Triangle adept Corrin, and Desperation Nino... SP farming gets tedious. But for them, I'd recommend just using hero feathers. It's what I did with my +Def -Spd Corrin. Worth it.

If you don't have much orbs, pulling 5s in hopes of increasing your plus 1 is a waste if you have holes in your group that needs filling. Plus 1 your hero is a luxury best done through feather grade or when your roster is set and then target pull.

In any case, yes nino is very common and yes I understand some people have few of them, but in general she's very common. Eventually you'll get more than u know what to do with them. This game may be random chances, but it seems to come in spurts too. I went first 2 months with over 1.3k pulls and zero tharja or peri. Then last month and half I got 25 tharhas lol....
