Boom. As soon as the Tempest Trials ended, I got all my Training Tower stratum quests finished, finished the paralogue quests, and did all the Michalis Grand Hero Battle rematch quests. Pretty much just have arena quests to work on for the next couple of weeks, and getting back to skilling up my backbenchers with all the feathers I've been amassing.

I just set my personal best Arena score (4844)! I'm Tier 20 right now, and that's enough to put me at around 1200th place, which is (so far) enough to stay in Tier 20 next week, assuming a bunch of players don't all start improving their scores over the weekend.

I'm neck deep in this month's Tempest Trials, so I'm saving up the new Yamada special maps, the new story missions and quests, and the July quests for after the Trials are finished. That'll give me a lot to do in only a few days.

I can't play FE Heroes anymore. My phone doesn't have enough memory for the updates and I don't feel like upgrading at all. I've been playing Echoes SoV a bit. I really find it mediocre to be honest, but the characters and story are good at least.

SoV is not too bad, but I get what you mean. The characters and story are definitely a step up from Fates. I kind of prefer the old(er)-school feel overall, actually.

Fire Emblem Heroes has apparently been downloaded/installed 10M times and has brought in $100M since it launched earlier this year.

Fire Emblem Heroes channel is doing a short broadcast tonight, probably going over upcoming features and updates for the next few months. My guess is the Choose Your Legends characters, at least one new Grand Hero Battle, and some mechanics/gameplay improvements.

This is something like 60 free orbs (not counting quest orbs, of which there will be a lot); probably 25,000 feathers (not counting quest feathers, of which there will be a few); and 9-12 free heroes (depending on how many Legions you got during his last GHB). You have a free draw at each new summoning focus starting 7 August, which actually means it could be more than that.

Nintendo has teased another FEH Channel reveal, starting Sunday at 8:30 p.m. PDT (just after midnight Atlantic time). This one is about the Choose Your Legends event.

Before the game launched, everyone got to vote on their favourite characters, with the promise that special versions of those characters would make their way into the game. The winners were Ike, Lyn, Roy, and Lucina.

Another update dropped for Heroes today, and it adds a support mechanic. You can choose another unit for each character to support, and as you do more battles with them together, their support rank increases. Higher rank = higher stat bonuses. It's a nice little nod to the main Fire Emblem series while tweaking the mechanic to make sense in Heroes.
