Fire Emblem Heroes Mobile: Opinions, tips and strategies

[isiolia]

Not sure how it would perform on phone, I only play games on tablet. About an hour in and no need for money in sight yet. FE games are perfect for touch, and the presentation of cut scenes shows a lot of effort on Ninty's part. Happy about this game.

I have a Moto X Pure, and it's fine on that.

Definitely a lot of room to do in-app purchasing, but it seems like if you're not trying to play it constantly that it won't be a huge issue. Not sure how the orbs for unlocking stuff will pan out long-term. I already got Tharja though, so, I'm pretty set.

The small team compositions seem badly balanced too. Healers so far seem like they're pretty worthless.

My one healer doesn't restore -that- much, though she's not completely useless. The harder one to justify in one of my teams is the tank/knight type with next to no mobility. Unless he starts on the front line or something, he's probably not even going to get in range. Maybe it changes on harder difficulties.

Isola, I have a tank a tank character I use CONSTANTLY. The limited mobility isn't a big deal due to the small map size. Plus, this character's assist move pushes characters up two spaces which can really speed up the matches.

Also I got a 5 star Tharja as well. The chances for that are 3% to get 5 star people. Call us lucky.

let's get some friend codes exchanged though!

no idea about Friend Code - I used the "sign in with Google" option.

I unlocked 2 characters last night, and one was a 5-star. I don't remember who they were, it was right before I went to bed.

My Tharja is only 4-star, haven't gotten any 5-star yet, but I have several 4-star characters. I think they can be upgraded later? Or do you just hope to get a higher rated one and combine them? It seems similar to how the Final Fantasy game like this did things, but I barely played that.

So far though, high range and offense often just takes out enemies in one turn or so, which has often meant my tank gets little chance to do much. I still keep him in one of the teams, but just notice that I'd often have to go out of my way to use him, depending on initial placement.

Probably a similar rationale for healers, if your offense is strong enough.

So, to find your friend code, go into your castle home and touch the stone on the bottom left corner. Click on the search icon and your friend code should be listed there.

As for increasing the star potential of your characters, I belive you can upgrade them to 4 star with the use of an item. My 5 star Tharja is an absolute beast that just demolishes everything she attacks.

I think that as you increase the difficulty things will definitely change and you need a more robust and diverse cast. For now it is just smash smash smash.

And then... what does a friend code do in this game?

[BogusMeatFactory]

So you can greet your friends and it gives you in game items and your generals can visit their castle.and chat....all I know of so far.

greeting does not message a person or anything it just gives the player items. No begging there like in other f2p games
