What if there was a banner that was free to roll, however the units obtained from it could not be used as skill inheritance fodder, nor could they be used as merge fodder, however they COULD be SI'd and merged into other units pulled from said banner, with the units obtained from the banner being deleted at reset everyday?

Kinda like "borrowed units"?

You have them on you for 24hours and then after that, they're gone? I wouldn't mind having some +10 units so I could beat chain challenges and getting more orbs.

Something like that would obviously be perfect for the normal day-to-day life of the game, but I think that it would simply just decrease the amount of orb purchases, so it would be a big no-no.

This game can't work without exploiting people's gambling problems and emotional connection to certain characters. Gamblers would have a permanent and free fix for their mental issues and people who like certain characters could just roll other heroes for free and then focus their savings on that one single hero.

If these two major exploitation points were removed by the introduction of the "24h borrow banner" the game would just shatter....but maybe that would actually be the best outcome.

Wow you're pessimistic today, Guts.. whats the matter... but yeah... still fighting with spending money in FEH, and still not winning.
Interesting idea and maybe even manageable with more restrictions

That's mostly personal and it doesn't really matter anyway, but lately the game has been feeling like a chore..I mean, even just the 10 minute time window to complete all the daily stuff just feels like a chore and not like an enjoyable thing to do.
The devs really need to speed up their v.3 implementation, because we had like two months of nothing significant apart from the classic scheduled stuff like we get every month...the october update (for example) is an absolute joke.

It's better to keep it FEH-related here. My bad pessimistic mood mostly comes from having an excessivelly long week at work and I feel like all life has been sucked out of me. 12 hour work days usually don't affect me too much, but it just didn't sit with me well this time.

But still, even if I had an optimistic outlook on things, I'd still say that FEH is dangerous when it comes to exploiting people with gambling issues. I'd probably scrap the "game-shattering" point, but the rest would stand.

I guess it's best to leave it here then. I have a bad feeling my curiosity is gonna spoil things.

Sucks to hear about those work hours tho. At the very least you're getting that paper. 😤

Its not that, its just that most people would rather not share personal private problems or dilemmas in their lives online on a mobile game forum with complete strangers. I can kinda understand if it was a social media platform with friends/family/acquaintances like facebook or twatter or whatever, but even on those things I think its too much to spill out your dirty laundry for everyone to see

He's not pessimistic... he's stating the truth of the nature of this game and other gatcha games as well. Have you read the statistics on how much money FEH makes for Nintendo from in-game purchases

Report

I wonder how much money our favorite leaderboards whale Yaboong (or whatever the name is) contributed seeing that they are always in top 10 with the most recent units.

Report

I'm sure either he's a millionaire or his mommy and daddy are. Most likely the latter. I don't think even people well off would regularly +10 all the units on every new banner

Oh yea, I ran into his team in arena earlier this month. Killed one of my guys and ruined my streak, but I redid it after

Report

I can only see this if they introduce some limit, like 5-10 per day and the banner resets each day.
