Pull for Duo Ephraim!

Duo Ephraim is the most powerful hero in this banner. His weapon, Reginleif is effective against armored and cavalry foes. It also grants him guaranteed follow-up attacks if his Atk is more than his foe's Atk or if an effect granting him bonus movement is currently active on him.

The latter condition is very easy to trigger and make use of thanks to his duo skill that grants him and all infantry and armored allies within 2 spaces an extra space of movement for a turn. This allows him to dish-out a guaranteed follow-up attack at will as he can still take an action even if he has activated his duo skill.

Should You Pull From This Summon?

Don't spend your orbs here!

For the most part, this summon does not warrant spending many orbs on. While the heroes here are certainly not bad, none of them are good enough justify wasting tons of orbs for, so other than the free pull, we recommend skipping this one. CYL Banners will come soon and it is best to save your orbs for those banners!

If you want to pull regardless, we recommend just pulling all the blue stones for the chance to get Duo Ephraim.

Pull if you want Duo Eprhaim

In addition to his powerful weapon and exclusive duo skill, he also possesses the very rare Heavy Blade 4. It is a powerful offensive skill that allows Ephraim to speed-up his special cooldown and deal additional damage just by beating his foe in an Atk check! This makes stacking huge amounts of Atk a good idea for Duo Ephraim.

Pull if you want their skills

All of the focus heroes from this summon have rather useful skills that you may want another unit to inherit. See the list below for the most useful skills from this batch of units.
