Review:
Fire Emblem Heroes Book 2 is an update to Fire Emblem Heroes, a free-to-play online tactical role-playing game for iOS and Android. The game has in-app purchases, and now is the best time to buy with the rarest heroes having an 8% drop rate instead of the normal 3%! The Legendary Hero Summoning Banner will take care of you. I’ve received 4 five-star heroes out of 6 summonings! You get an extra 100 slots for free as well so no need to worry about inventory space! Note, I didn’t spend money to get 120 orbs, I saved up for the event thanks to news on Phoenixmaster1’s YouTube channel. I’m glad I did since my boy Hector is a part of the team now!
Fjorm Breakdown: Fire Emblem Heroes Book 2 gives you a free 5-star unit, Fjorm. Fjorm is our first Legendary Hero. She’s pretty good. Her speed isn’t at a high tier, but she comes with a built-in distant counter legendary weapon and good defenses. Fjorm is best when paired with a unit due to her Atk/Def Bond skill. I like Brave Ike as her partner. Especially with the Tempest Trials pumping him up! Fjorm will always gain double SP (reaching 12 SP on double SP days) and you’ll need it to unlock all of her abilities! Every time you summon her, through the story or on the banner, you get a Water Blessing. It doesn’t appear removable at this time. The game mentions new blessings will cancel out old ones. I hope this means you can bless units multiple times and only have one active at a time.
New Stuff: The plot thickens in Book 2! The cut-scene builds up the excitement, and new backgrounds grace familiar areas like the Training Tower. The Weapon Refinery will cause the inner tactician in you to drool at the possibilities when you can upgrade Linde’s Aura to Dark Aura! Other upgrades will allow you to make non-legendary weapons increase various stats. Every weapon has an SP and weapon refinery cost (Arena Medals, Refining Stones, and Divine Dew).
Overall Impression: If you love Fire Emblem Heroes already, you’ll be psyched for Book II! If you’re new to Fire Emblem Heroes, now is one of the best times to jump in and gain some valuable 5-star heroes! Just use every orb you have on summoning!
Fire Emblem Heroes Tips are in GTT 6,7, and 12!
I hope the review helps you out, dear reader! Save Askr, defeat Embla!
