Who do think is going to recieve the next buffs?

You saw the title.
There are a crapton of Heroes with good potential for a niche or to be a top tier threat that just don't have a good enough weapon, or lack damage output or consistent tanking.
They've fixed heroes before in both creative and straightforward ways, and I look forward to buffs even more than new heroes.
I personally want them to give Odin a Wo Dao tome with some kind of an "element boost" effect on the refine. That might let him fight other mages and squishies and help him retain his strengths. Your thoughts?

Corrin M and Roy are overdue.

Give Lilina Forblaze, you cowards

Or Armads. :)

Well, that's the Brave Lilina I hope to see. But she could really use a special tome.

Rebecca needs a unique niche. Right now she's simply in the middle of all archers. Hopefully she gets Rienfleche.

Roy and Corrin desperately need refinements.

The Askr trio DEFINITELY need a buff. But they should get something as the story progresses, something that Alfonse hinted in the Book 2 storyline.

^ this ^

Rebecca's in that really hard to work with area. She's really expensive to set up as either a Brave archer (which she doesn't do as well as Jeorge did before he got his niche) and her defensive stats aren't good enough for a Guard Bow build, nor can she work Slaying as well as others. I'm working on getting her to a 5* high merge (because I can), and she's just hard to level up.

She as one of my first summoned 5*, i really like her.
But she is so weak, and no niche, she is just waiting(maybe forever).

I would love them to give Fir a boost. Although I have doubts that will happen as in FE6 she came carrying a Wo Dao which can already be inherited (which I have given her) and then the legendary sword that anyone could wield with S rank in FE6 is Durandal. Which just happens to be Eliwood's exclusive sword in 7. Now maybe a little more like, I would love to see them give Nephenee the Wishblade. Unless they want to give us a GHB for Levail, however I'm not sure they would do that given how they could do a GHB for Ashnard first, who I think has been more popular among the CYL votes.

There's quite literally nothing stopping them from creating new weapons for characters should the mood strike them; Soren's personal tome is one that they created for him, since there's no "Wind's Brand" tome in any of the main series games. I could see them theoretically making a simplistic weapon for Fir, but I wouldn't really rate it too highly.

Ashnard... unless you count Lyon and Zelgius as being "final bosses", it's hard to argue for him showing up, so Levail can't be written off as a GHB.

You mean Zephiel right? And idk maybe I just feel that Ashnard would revel in the opportunity to see/join in all these heroes from different worlds fighting, being the Mad King that he was.

Yeah, I mean Zephiel. The red sword armor that I always forget about because nobody uses him anymore.

Fir have no attack stat, any upgrade is welcome.

Nephenee is much powerful already, i always said that Soren is strong and he gets a upgrade, why not Nephenee, then?

I'm so down for Odin to get a unique, though it won't be as nice as getting him as Owain with the Missiletain at some future point; it'll still work.

Henry's another mage that doesn't really have a niche; other than "omnomnom Archers" with that monsterous defense/Raourraven combo.

I doubt that they'll ever give old seasonal units buffed; and he's not one that I have either, but Spring Xander has the reputation of "worst lance unit" for a reason; which implies that he needs a buff.

Spring Xander is bad, really bad, but the Carrot Lance+ refinement have a +1 Atk for any upgrade. He will be bad forever, but at least he can tank very well.

Just for curiosity i hate him, but he have 3120 HM for some reason that i can't explain.

Out of ones not mentioned before, Palla could use something as she has been left behind now for flying swords. All the lance heroes from SoV in Clive, Clair, Berkut, and Mathilda. Florina needs something as well. Clarisse needs some help, as do most archers.

Okay. We have a photo that showed a glowing, Omega Yato in the og announcement for the Fort Capture gamemode. So Id say Corrin is kinda assured. However, he could be for a later date. I would say that Roy and Odin could use a boost as well.

But if IM honest, the characters I have in mind are Alfonse, Sharena and Anna.

I don't know if Azura needs a weapon, but her artwork portrays her using a Blessed Lance and it is her signature weapon in Warriors. If IS doesn't release it as a inheritable weapon, a Prf weapon sounds feasible.

For units that desperately need a refinement, Corrin (M) and Roy. Yato got powercreep'd by Siegbert's Dark Greatsword and Binding Blade by a refined Silver Sword+, Yato too.

For units that need a completely new weapon, a lot of units from Heroes 1st Generation needs them. Hana, Rebecca, Camilla, Fir, Hawkeye… I don't know if they have a Prf weapon in their games but something like Fir's Blade (Slaying Edge + Wo Dao a la Hauteclere) would be nice.

Fir's blade, a completely new weapon (like Soren's Wind Brand), might end up being the name if Fir ever did get a prf weapon, I'd love her to get one. But in FE6 she did not have one. She came wielding Wo Dao, which I think was locked to swordmasters, and the S rank legendary sword that she can wield in FE6 is Durandel. Which because of FE7 is Eliwood's prf weapon, so I can't see her having that.

I think both M!Robin and F!Robin are due for a new weapon. Their niche as TA-Raven users has worsened dramatically since the early days of skill inheritance due to Cancel Affinity. And it doesn't help that their stat spreads are so mediocre (jack-of-all trades mean they fail to specialize in anything) that other mages like Mae/Oliver and Boey respectively can probably do their job better than they can.

Also, given that they both are pretty popular, I expect we will see them be given a new weapon in the future.

Either a custom or Mjolnir for M!Robin; probably a custom or something like Celica's Gale (green Brave tome) for F!Robin.
