>>406 I just remember by the phrase 'in combat.' In combat buffs stack, pretty much all other stat boosts like from rally or weapon descriptions do not stack but only the highest for each stat applies - though weapon traits not mentioned in the description are permanent and do stack I believe. As a result I tend to underemphasize rally skills and rely for the non-stackable bonus from Elimine's weapon and Earthfire Balm+, by herself she applies virtually all the non-stackable boosts. (A/D/R+6)

>>404 Thanks for the help, for the past week i have been looking at builds and trying to build teams but maybe i should spend some time on the basics first. Save myself some resources in the future.

>>402 We've updated those pages, including the other movement types.

>>403 Visible buffs (the blue stats) do not stack. Only the highest one is applied. Examples of skills that apply these kind of buffs include Hone, Oath, Rouse, Tactic skills. Passive or invisible buffs stack. Examples of skills that apply these kind of buffs include Spurs, Drives, Close and Distant Guard, Goads, Wards, and anything that says "during combat".

I have a a question about atk/spd oath and Azura's dancing flames. My unit gets the oath buff at the start of the turn and then i gray waves it. The unit gets the +6 buff on def/res and only +1 on atk/spd. My only guess was that gray waves was removing the oath buff because of the does not stack clause on the movement buff, but i equiped sing and the same thing happened. Do buffs not stack? Im kind of new and maybe this is common knowledge but idk whats going on.

The list of flying units needs to be updated. I see many units missing including NY Dagr, Elimine, Thorr, Eitri, Legendary Caeda, Legendary Ryoma, Constance, Pirate Hinoka, Winter Mirabilis, Spring Maria, Spring Sonya, Halloween Sothis, Ninja Igrene, etc. Also, Laegjarn's rating there is 7.5 instead of 9.0. Flying ranged units with Canto would especially benefit from Pirate Hinoka's duo skill. Eitri for example becomes a holy terror. A/D Near Trace 3 could be put on one to ensure Canto 2.

There are very few units I know of that can instantly boost a whole team's movement range to cause mass disruption in Summoner Duels, Legendary Sigurd and New Year's Dagr are the other two, both 9.5s. Pirate Hinoka does so while also limiting the movement of all opposing non-flying ranged units to 1 space with gravity, stranding normally mobile ranged units out in no-man's land unable to move. She's one of the most dangerous Summoner Duels units possible as a result.

I just faced an opponent in Summoner Duels with Pirate Hinoka who used an all-flying team, then boosted the whole team's movement range while constricting the movement range of all my non-flying units with her Duo skill. I didn't have my best team with BHector (it was vetoed) and that Duo skill by itself was a match-ender, capable of effectively destroying units like Ninja Corrin (F), Scion Leif, and NY Fafnir who depend on their mobility.

I strongly suggest making Pirate Hinoka a 9.5 instead of 9.0. Not only does she have high Atk/Spd, adaptive damage, effective against flying/armored, and canto, but she has one of the most overpowered Duo skills in the game, simultaneously boosting movement while buffing all flying units including herself and at the same time inflicting gravity to restrict movement for all non-flying ranged units. In modes like Summoner Duels, Arena, Aether Raids, Grand Conquests, etc., that is overpowered.

>>397 This has been fixed as well. Thank you!

Sure, no problem, this site is my go-to resource for learning about FEH, and I'm happy to help improve it. Also, Spring Luthier's page is missing stat ranking comparison info.

>>395 Thanks for bringing this to our attention! The page has been updated.

The Special Skills list could use updating. Staff skills I notice are missing include: -Earthfire Balm -Earthfire Balm + -Kindled-Fire Balm -Solid-Earth Balm -Still-Water Balm https://game8.co/games/fire-emblem-heroes/archives/265414

>>386 Sorry for the delay; we have updated the Weapon Refinery tier list!

I've been experimenting with Eir as I level her more fully and she's not as good as I thought. She's got great Res but even with her bonuses her Def is still on the weak side. She doesn't prevent counterattacks just follow-ups which I see now is different, and with her low HP that makes it difficult for her to win match-ups. She's still a good team healer for boosting Res but all her bonuses and effects don't help that much in combat. If she prevented counters not follows she'd be an easy 9.0.

Also, I realize it would take lots of reinvestment on A/C skills, require BHector replacing Ostian Counter, and make AIdunn's anti-armor less applicable, but wouldn't BHector actually make the better Near Save Unit and AIdunn the better Far Save unit because of her better Resistance and calculation of lower Def/Res for ranged units, since Near Save units only need Res for facing dragons?

With a good A skill like Atk/Res Unity and a decent special, plus a good seal, I can see Eir with a refined Lyfjaberg, Mystic Boost 3, and Sparkling Boost 3 being one of the best supports/team healers and one of the best dagger units in the game, probably worthy of a 9.5 rating. Her low Atk/Def stats are drastically improved by her combat boosts of Atk+13/Spd+8/Def+8/Res+13. She simultaneously boosts team Res/HP, skyrockets her own stats, and prevents enemy follow-ups.

I've been looking at filling out my Brigade, and I think Eir should be at least a 9.0. Despite her low stats she gets a ton of bonuses from her refined weapon and Sparkling Boost +, including: +8 Atk/Def/Spd/Res during combat, +5 res to all allies during combat, 20 HP healing to most damaged ally, enemy follow-up prevention/cooldown debuff, bonus to unit Atk/Res = 20% of HP, Dagger 7, Res +3, and 7 HP healing to unit/allies after combat. Properly invested she's probably one of the best daggers.

>>388 It's probably because even if they have the same name, they are not considered as the same character

When showing units of the same name for Selena and Summer Selena on their pages, Selena (Fates) isn't shown. https://game8.co/games/fire-emblem-heroes/archives/312476

I just got Nott during the recent Summon event with 40 summons. She is invaluable for Aether Raids Defense because she is the only Dark defensive bonus mythic, so she is required to get the extra unit when defending during Dark seasons. Her Pathfinder isn't the gamechanger that New Year's Dagr's is though because she can't apply it to all teammates per NY Dagr's Duo skill - which is a phenomenal skill for Aether Raids Offense and Summoner Duels because it allows a rapid round team advance.

Hello! Could you please consider an update for the Weapon Refinery Tier List? Thank you!

A good addition to the Aether Raids Guide would be a list of Aether Raids-specific skills/weapons, e.g. Upheaval, Disarm Trap, Mila's Turnwheel, Detailed Report, and AR-D or AR-O skills. Also, Aether Raids party bonus heroes could be mentioned, e.g. offensive (Ash, Elimine, Ashera, Dagr, Reginn, Thorr, Ullr) and defensive (Otr, Nott, Seiros). https://game8.co/games/fire-emblem-heroes/archives/288478#hl_6

>>383 Thanks for pointing these out, they have both been fixed.

Just noticed that: On Luthier's recommended IVs, it state +Atk/-Def, but in the text, it is written +Atk/-Spd

Sara shows as a 9.0 rating here but as a 9.5 on her page. https://game8.co/games/fire-emblem-heroes/archives/268942

>>380 There will be a Legendary and Mythic Hero Remix banner this month. Azura will be present on that banner.

Hello, I’m looking for details on when Legendary Azura : Vallite Songstress will return. https://game8.co/games/fire-emblem-heroes/archives/267221#hl_9 I was told March 2022 but am struggling to find when. Any help appreciated.

I realized Earthfire Balm + doesn't stack that well since the boosts aren't during combat or permanent bonuses. Elimine already grants Def/Res+6 so the Atk/Def+6 of Earthfire Balm + only boosts Atk, the Def overlaps and doesn't stack. The Atk boost is still useful but an Atk/Spd skill would be more useful. However if pairing with Flayn, Flayn's Deluge Balm + would provide the speed lacking from Elimine, for +6 boosts to all stats.

The description for the Close Guard 3 seal is outdated and doesn't mention that it also applies to beast damage now as well, so the seal now apparently applies to all close-range damage. https://game8.co/games/fire-emblem-heroes/archives/279482
