The new banner looks like a joke

Why do I want 4* focus heroes?

Fodder I guess? Every unit on there is good fodder lol. And also merges.

I like the concept of 4 star focuses. Banners like these will hopefully end Hinata (or other fodder) droughts for some people. If IS continues doing these, I hope Lukas appears on one since I'm making a 5 star super merge of him.

For someone like me whose been contemplating on promoting a couple of Selena's to 5* just for TA 3 because he's only been able to get one Roy since launch, it's pretty good.

I'd kill for some Oscars. I haven't pulled a single one and I really want Rally Spd/Def on some units, but oh well. I'm not wasting orbs on this banner.

Well I need some Fae, but tried some green orbs and didn't get her. So eh, it just sucks.

I admit, I got a little excited at first when I realized what a comparatively huge chance I'd have to get Hinata. Upon reflection, though, there's a lot of downsides to pulling on this banner (a 3% 5* focus rate feels really low when divided among 12 heroes, and what would most of us do with a 5* Laslow or Rebecca???). If they wanted to make this a truly good fodder banner, they should ditch Laslow and Rebecca for Soleil and...probably Leon. (Desirable special and actually decent unit, unlike Rebecca.) Then, they should reduce the 5* focus pool to only one hero of each color (keep the 4* focus pool the size it is). 5* focus heroes would be Soleil (especially attractive because lots of us still don't have her), Mathilda (Ridersbane or actual access to CA3), Fae (a really good unit who all of us should be working on 5* merges of), and Klein (I really hope I don't have to explain this one.) They could also potentially ditch Mathilda all together and replace her with Subaki. (Subaki in the 5* pool means a chance of free QR3!!!)

Sadly, of course, nobody asked me. ;)

I wanted to pull a Klein from this banner for my free summon. I guess no ultra fodder unit for me this time around because... 4 red stones and 1 green stone. I got a Fae... yay for Renewal fodder I guess.

Why? Here's a few reasons...
-Possible 5* Setsuna for free Guard Bow
-Klein, King of skill fodder
-Hinata, Fury 3

Or merges.. because you know, some people out there are making a 5* +10 Setsuna, or something. It's not a banner that EVERYONE wants to pull from. You either want to pull from it or not. If you don't, then good for you, you can save your orbs.

I'd have liked it more if it had featured different 4* units. Also, would have been cool if it were rare 5* available as 4* temporarily.

I like the idea of a fodder banner in concept, my free pull got me a Roy, which I’m pretty happy about because I have no TA3 fodder otherwise. I’m just not sure about making ALL of the focus heroes potential 5*s for that banner...I feel like if they really wanted to make a fodder banner, it might even just be a better idea to only do one of each color as 5* focus (the ones that get rare/good skills only available on 5*s) and keep everyone else as 4* focuses (the ones that get good/rare skills at 4*)

Though, not sure I’ve ever heard of anyone really using Laslows or Rebeccas as inheritance fodder, so I’m not really sure why they’re there? I’m not complaining, though, because I’m one of those crazy people who’s 5*+10ing Laslow and the game keeps giving me Firs instead, so I welcome a better chance at pulling him.

I could really use Hinatas but am out of orbs and will still try for Micaiah with every orb I can get as she seems super. (Like Celica a mage I'd really love to use but the late Celica I got had unsavable IVs)

Might go for a 5* Promotion for Jagen to fodder his fury off haha

Report

Almost all of them have useful fodder skills at 4 stars. The only ones who are less useful in that regard are Barst(Spur atk, but he's got Repo, so...) Frederick(Fortify Def) and Matilda(Hone Atk, which comes from Olivia as well, who is a 3-4 star summon) Personally, I wouldn't mind pulling a 5 star Fae. Save me 20,000 feathers. A 5 star Barst would be great, as I have a +atk/-Spd Frederick in need of a Brave Axe.
