- Sharing my 4*+10 Est project and the Pure Atk Slaying Spear+ Build I’ve given her. It started off as a joke, but turns out 62 Atk is pretty darn effective.

I should be using Glimmer with this build, but I was having so much fun recording gameplay that I forgot to actually inherit it to Est. I seriously enjoyed using this build and I am thinking of trying out the same thing with my 4* merged Cherche in the future. Another thing to note is that I could use a Brave weapon and it would probably yield good results too. However, I wanted to do something different and I’m glad I tried out this build because I actually had a good time watching Est 1-shot so many different units.
The Sacred Spear just imagine Astra…
You forgot two other factors that raise her ATK further, S rank support with someone and then Goad Fliers.it leaves her with a whooping 76 ATK.
Going for a LAD3 route, her Base ATK is 68, with S rank support from an unit and the earth blessing, Goad is 72, Hone fliers nets her a 78 ATK.
With the support, refine, blessing and ATK+3 seal, her attack is 63, Death blow ups that to 69 when Attacking, +10 from goad and hone is 79. Disgusting lol.
I use her as an armor counter/res tank with distant counter, but 70 damage is still nothing to scoff at
I actually just finished building my +10 Cherche, and I’m not using the standard brave axe set, instead I upgraded her slaying hammer, and men, she terminates any armored unit, literally. This est would be even scarier if she was 5*
You could give est def ploy for more damage on the enemy
With the same method it's possible to get Cherche to 78 atk
5*+10 +atk = 45
Slaying hammer +atk = 16
Death blow 3 = 6
Atk +3 seal = 3
L!Ike blessing = 2
hone fliers = 6
This is the build I'm currently working on, at 4 merges and just waiting on feathers to get to +7 then I need to summon more cherches
If you use dark aura instead of hone fliers and the spur att skill and seal on linde/delthea plus two goad fliers you can get that number up to 94
Just run slaying hammer on desperation brash assault
Marriage makes it 82
Dunevarion Don't forget about spur attack
To rise it even higher :
Linde/delthea with dark aura and
double spur atk
Two fliers with goad fliers
Threaten def / def ploy
86 atk and -5 def on the enemy
I know its unlikey that you will ever be able to pull off this setup, but sometimes its fun to think about how high you can raise a single stat.
Est is the best!
but still a pest to other people. #feelsbadman
Her tiny chest...
Idc sao ruined my wige

I plan to create a +10 5* Est with DC. She can reach almost 75 res. It's insane
In a completely optimal situation with Berkut and fortress def with full buffs, you can hit exactly 75. I built my own est to just get to almost 60 with buffs and then still have manageable over 50 attack. You can hit 80 if you have fortress res 6 but that's a waste because you can't capitalize except with hyper glacies. Honestly, Est is great for mage tanking in my opinion
Edit:
Sidenotes- you can always run double ploys on her and if you get her to 5* +10 she can hit over 60 attack and 60 res (on EP). Final stat line without buffs on the Est I run IF +10 (only at +3) would hit 50/58/36/30/46 [atk boon hp bane]. Adding Berkut is an extra 7 to res and then add 10/14 for double goad hone/fortify (or one of each for +10/+6) and you got a massive tank of 63 res and 72 attack PLUS Glacies. It's beautiful with the -5 atk/def ploy that hits almost every unit with this statline. Have fun with Est!
I just maked a 4+10 Donnel (+atk-hp) with Slaying lance+ spd for 57atk and 39spd (fury3+spd seal), glimmer. No regrets.
The other day while trying to get (f) Morgan I got pitty Broken by Ephraim and Clair. I realized He has similar stats to Donnel.
I though the same thing. Build a Donnel with a Slaying Lance instead of Brave Lance. He will be awesome.

I think i love invest into supermerged 4* units more than promote to 5*, i actually have in my colellection: +5 Est, +6 Gaius, +7 Saizo, +5 Merric, +5 Boey +6 Beruka, +8 Caeda (with ruby sword), +5 Sophia (with raventome+), +7 Batre, +6 Felicia (with kitty padle+), +5 Priscilla, +8 Clarine, +8 Azama, +9 Effie (with brave lance+), +10 Virion (With desp+brash assault brave bow+ build), +10 Cherche (with brave axe+) and +10 Gunter (With Poleaxe+).
It's really fun turn unit's who doesn't had nothing to inerit into strong usefull units for situations instead send home, you always will have someone to use in arena assault and they score well in arena thanks to the merges. The summoning sessions become less more frustrating even when you are being unlucky, even pity breakers became viables to give 5* weapons or skills to your supermerged units.
Admittedly its becoming a favorite thing of mine to do as well. The allure of that 5* border is nice to look at plus you get those extra voice lines, but for the units who I don't have a personal attachment with its been a lot of fun to just merge them at 4*. Definitely makes summoning slightly less disappointing and its fun to use someone considered "low tier". I appreciated that FEH allows just about every unit to be decent if you invest some resources into them.
My own Est is an unmerged 5-star, but nearly the same in build and role! There's already so many good units for the usual Brave and Firesweep lances, but Est with her pre-packaged armorslaying lance is surprisingly (or not) effective at her own thing.
The route I went is slightly more generalist - a +spd IV, spd refine on the spear, Iceberg, Fury, Lancebreaker (so she can ignore Effie's Wary Fighter), Def Ploy, Quickened Pulse - but I'm considering eventually merging with a +atk IV and switching the weapon refine to match, same as yours. I don't find myself using her as much as I'd thought I might, since she was partly made to deal with W!Tharja who ended up not being as common as I'd expected, but it is *very* satisfying to know that Est can safely demolish even a 3x Ward Armor, +def, def-refined Candelabra W!Tharja parked on a defense tile. :D
I had a lot of Bartre, and some unwanted spring chrom, so I made a 4 star merge of Bartre +attack, -resistance, with the carrot axe (+defense), and fury (2), everything else is flexible. having a 60 attack ish and a 40 defense is a strong combination. It preforms well enough in arena assault arena to assist the "main bait of dangerous meta units" who cant really handle "bulky dangerous" physical unit.
I build Est for AA since I fight so many armor units now... she is +atk, 5* with 56 atk (with armored Blow 3) or 59 atk using +atk for slot A, and with +2atk seal. With the anti-armored team she reach 68 atk with armored blow 3! Very good!
Ah I love Est, I have a Brave lance + / Death Blow build on her and it is so fun to watch her obliterate pretty much everything. This build looks really fun too, definitely worthwhile with the armor-meta right now.
I have a 4*+9 Marth that I used, and inherited my 5* -atk one into. He's really great as a buffer, and he can take care of those pesky dragon units too. It's pretty great.
Only things i would change is
Atk +3 --> Fury 3
C skill--> def ploy
This is a slightly less budget build but I'm certain this can work wonders and help her score even more kills on green armour units. This is better for mixed teams tho since it is better to have a flier buff on her in a flier team.
Why invest into Fury if +Atk allows her to ORKO armored units almost always in one shot? Waste of resources with little gain, imo
Innovamania to increase her res for def ploy
And for scoring in Arena. He described all of that in the original comment lmao.
StuffedBodybag if the main reason for doing this is scoring, don't bc you will be using this as a 4*+10, which means she won't be in your main arena team anyways
Disagree. 4*10 merge is really easy and cheap. Not everyone can afford a perfect 5*10 team
4*+10's are a lot of fun to build. Right now I have +10 Eliwood and a +9 Cherche. I'm thinking of making 4*+10s of a bunch of the 3-4 star heroes.
I like these kinds of videos. Make more
Sounds fun to do with Est; although mine is a +SPD/-RES variant.
I think I might pull off a doubling variant since I tend to run lots of Emblem teams. My flier teams tend to be 3x Goad + Hone Fliers for a delicious +14 ATK/SPD for the three members on a good day. The Hone Fliers source gets +12 ATK/SPD at least when in best/ideal position.
"Everything just dies. It's so much fun!"
Muahahahaha!
this is pretty good, a fun and useful project that also clears space on the barracks
This is the exact reason why I run Svallin's shield and close defense on Fell M. Robin.
That is insane, I havent seen any Way build like this. Brave lance or ploy was the only ones and this is unique. Have fun with one shots!
I tried also to build a armor smashing unit with a +atk 5 star Laslow with Armorsmasher+(+eff but I will change it to +atk), Reposition, Dragonic aura, Death Blow 3, Swordbreaker 3, Hone Speed 3 and +3 Atk Seal. He is pretty fun to use in arena assult because he one shots nearly every armor unit despite Effie with a Hone Atk buff
Excellent information and build!
To stay competitive in AA, you need to build up some good anti-armor unit. Armor slaying weapon is a must but you also need as much attack as possible. Most armor units you'll see run the best skills available and if you cannot kill them in one hit, they'll retaliate with a special and that ignis/bonfire/glacies/iceberg will kill even if your unit has color advantage. So Est is quite a good candidate in this case. Mine is at 4*+4 and I'm always happy to get some more. Other good units are Cherche and Tobin. Maybe Oboro as well since she's available at 3*.
I'm trying to work on a range tank Gordin.
Guard bow
Shove (don't know what else to put)
Bonfire
Distant defense
Quick riposte
Atk smoke
Distant defense seal
He's only a +2 merge and he's +def -spd, but I can't wait to see how it is when he's complete
Damn! That build is impressive!
Est!!! I'm currently building my Est up and have her at +9. Maybe I will five star a copy of her just to give my future +10 the Slaying Spear and refinement option. Currently, I'm using her with Slaying Lance+, Swap, Death Blow 3, Hit and Run, Hone Atk3. She is partnered with Gerome. I plan to incorporate them to a team with Sanaki and her tome refinement that works with flying units.
Est is a lot of fun to use. I have Catria in a team with Marth, Bride Caeda, and Sheena. Palla is on my main flying team with Spring Camilla, Summer Corrin, and Hinoka. I have to use all the Whitewings somewhere :)
I don't remember if it was featured in your other video but I started making a 4* +10 Cherche inspired by you, I finished it around 2 weeks ago right in time for the TT and holy cow she's amazing.
Right now I'm working in a CorrinF (4*+9), Sophia (4*+5), Nino(4*4), Beruka(4*+7) and Est(4*+3)
SacredSpear, this might be an 'out-there' request for a video, but can you consider giving us a box tour? Maybe show the 5 stars you've pulled/built so far and talk about the experiences pulling for them? I would love to see that!
I run armorsmasher Soleil on my main offense squad. 😀
After your 4* merge video I started merging units I used to just release. So far my best is a 4*+10 Cherche with a Brave Axe+ and Death Blow 3. Base ATK is 43, 51 with her weapon. Sometimes it feels like cheating the game when I deploy her.
I got a 4*+10 Est as well xD She does have the brave+ but I think having the heavy spear+ is going to be great as well.
I did the same thing with this Est but with Slaying Spear+ Speed refine.
I'd have to inherit the heavy spear from oboro or florina to do this build. Her attack is super high still.
I prefer the feathers I can get from Est instead, but if building her up is fine and dandy for you, then more power to you
Est is my red check for arena assault.
With Triangle adept and an upgrade-def spear she pretty much do a great job.
When the new refines exist and I give Ephraim his own Flame Siegmund and Attack +3, he'll have 60 attack and (basically) guaranteed follow-ups. Desperation, Heavy Blade, and Glimmer and I, too, will destroy things with a poke poke stick
the build that may even kill unlimited hp works arden
I'm thinking of doing this as well. One skill that will help her do more damage is Def ploy. Since she has a lot of res it makes sense to use ploy skills.
Est I'm so sorry for sending you home! What have I done!? *sobs in a corner*
Just like your sisters? Sis, you outshine them...
For once.
I have the Slaying spear on Gwendolyn, but I don't really see the need to counter armors in general as they are the easiest to deal with in my view. There are just better things to invest in.
No def ploy? You're a madman
I am actually building a Est just like this but she's Res+ instead of Atk+ because I have Def Ploy on her and by the time she's +10 she will have 36 Res so she'll destroy a lot of units and her attack will be 54 plus with death blow and hone Fliers (since I'm running her in a Flier team) together will be 66 attack
Hmm I am thinking of making either a super merged 4*+10 saizo or azama. Both are very bulky units and I need bulky units right now. Though for now I need to save the orbs and feathers to promote and summon skill fodder for them.
My Est is a +5 right now. Instead of being an Anti Armor though, she's an Anti Mage Counter unit. Practically any mage except for some like Flyer Nino will fall against her because of the high res and Distant Counter.
Seems fun I’ll try it
You asked if you had a unit that you made to counter things (armors and such)
She doesn't have any anti-x weapons but im proud of my Masked Marth at +4 (missed one ;-;) she reaches 38 speed at base
But I gave her darting blow and her bond refine which grants her +10 speed in total without others buffing her
She reliably kills most armors which the rest of my team struggles with
My 4*+10 Est saved my ass so many times in Grand Hero Battles (Arvis for example) and in Arena. Brave Lance (not even +) and Deathblow are so disgusting on her with +atk
Cordelia is currently my only Brave Lance flier, but in the future I'd love to try it out on this Est to see the destructive power. Brave weapons are still very powerful and I don't see them going away anytime soon.
My 4 star Plus 10 project I'm planning is Beruka because is pretty fun unit to use :)
Now imagine this with *death blow 4*
... well I am saving my 4 star Est.....holy crap
Ur videos are awesome
i just brave lance+ & 5* her and she gets the job done. i might just try armor smasher for arena one day.
Here's Sacred Spear again showing that even the so called "low tier units" can shine under the right spotlight. Nice video
Est isn't considered low tier. She's usually A tier in tier lists.
I've done the same with tobin est oboro and bartre, i summoned so many of them and they are so useless so i decided to merge them and give the breaker skill to make things easier in arena assault
Tobin was the main inspiration for wanting another armor unit counter because while everyone gives him a hard time he has really come in clutch in Arena Assault when I needed him. Oboro, Bartre, and Cherche are the next candidates I'm looking forward to merging for this type of build because its been a fun experience.
well done!
If you wanted you could give summoner support and ally support to increase attack by another 4
I have a similar build with my 5* +Atk (-Def) Lilina, but with Fury and Vatange and Keen Raurdrwolf just for fun and is funny she even one-shot some blue cavs, but I went to the Res refine because for her managed to tank a bit if needed and I was thinking about using Iceberg but I changed the special later to Glimmer.
And combing with a I-Pulse ally she can do so much damage if she is attacked on enemy phase.
But I not like much effective weapons... But for tomes the red owl being locked to 5* and not wanting to use Bolganone, the only choice was with the Wolf Tome. And this build I wanted even before the refinary because Lilina has a high atk to patch the 10 MT from the regular Wolf tome and had a lof of horses in arena. (And now is hard to see them...)
But now Lilina will receive a new weapon that totally throw away my build (And I'm fine with that), I hope for something like Hinoka or Sanaki :P
Btw during TT I used Gerome, Female Morgan, NY Azura and Sanaki (Refined Cymbeline) on the team and once an Oscar appeared, since was the last map and he was the only enemy left, I managed to make NY Azura and Female Morgan give Gerome the 2 Goad Fliers and with Sanaki Cymbeline effect, he basically turn Oscar into dust with 108 damage without the special and he still have the Fortress Def on A and he is merged. Was so much fun looking, specially because the preview has a max of 99 dmg.
But I personally think Slaying weapons (From the regular pool) are still the best weapon for optimized builds since all units can use for any build, being offensive or defensive. (Excluding Bow users since Guard Bow is the best bow for defensive when Slaying is better for offensive)
I like the video, but what is it with FE Heroes videos (in general) and terrible audio quality? Use an aux cord to plug your phone's headphone output into your computer's mic input while you record. Record phone audio with audacity or something and sync up in a video editor. The shite audio really bugs me.
*laughs in 5★+10 Est*
Gioele Pagani cries in minus atk laevatien.
I prefer 5*+10 Raven, dual L&D with Basilikos is... Amazing.
For a little girl, she packs a punch
-Def? I have the same Est right now(!), without all the fancy weaponry. Just normal Brave lance for now and Death blow. Will do this when i get the feathers :) Also, no Def ploy seal? I guess, like you said, seeing that 62 atk is satisfying.
I gave her Brave Lance, since I don't plan to use other Flier with brave pance (my Cordelia will have Slaying lance + Heavy Blade), but I think this build is also pretty good
BTW I think Fury should be batter in slot A 'Cause it raises both per attacco and Speed, and also defense
are you tryng this build with Glimmer?? i think that could be better than moon bow because i watched that Zelgius recived 93 damage and was increased to 106 with moonbow, well with glimmer that damage could reach to 129 damage, because 93 + 46(is the 50% added effect of the especial) , i will like to see it
even tho its much cheaper feather wise it would bother me a to no end if i +10 a unit at 4 stars. it feels like they will forever be incomplete. I made it a long term project since the start of the game to +10 a unit at 5 stars and I did it with a +Atk -Res Corrin and it has been the mvp ever since. Regardless this is an awesome Est build and if I ever do it ill commit all the way.
UNDERATED
Should do Life and Death?
Nice build!
Can we get a catria build?
Player~Kun i have one. But it is fairly stsndard
At 2:37 to see her atk
Is it heavy spear build or slaying lance build? I see effective against armor damage early in the video, but you say it's slaying lance build, so idk
Just now when I finished my 4*+10 Fir they're releasing Nameless Blade which most likely will be a 16 Mt Wo Dao. Thanks IS, 4*+10s will definitely become weaker over time compared to 5*+5s or even 5*+1/2s
You can promote one Fir to 5* to get her new weapon and then merge down into your 4*+10 if you are worried about not getting it. You can continue merging a +10 unit over and over again and that is how you can change their nature too if you wanted a different one.
The Sacred Spear Oh haven't thought about that, I thought that Legendary Weapons are generally locked to 5* but this changes things. Thanks for the clarification
I know merging can be dangerous and not something you want to screw up, but to make sure you have the outcome you want you can hold down on the "new" merged unit on the right side and inspect their skills. In the case of Fir if you can see the Nameless Blade without that 5* requirement lock then your 4* merge should have the weapon after merging. I''m not sure if she would have to actually know the skill by using SP, but its always safe to double check.
Dang good thing I have a lukas
I have a 5* anti-mage build on my Est. she takes no damage whatsoever from almost all mages and then burns a +40 glacies
*panic ploys you*
Hear me out. Est is much better than you think
Honestly, I believe Est deserves an S tier rank. In fact, her brilliant qualities even make her a top contender for the S+ rank. While I do agree mostly with the Gamepress list, I truly think they are overlooking many of her overwhelming strengths. Before I go on, I would just like to note that I have been playing since release and am currently a Noble tier 18 player, so I am well familiar with the meta. First of all, her attack stat (with a boon) rivals that even of Black Knight, and Neutral Hector.
Of course we all know the memes about Def Ploy, but this build. I honestly I think people don't really understand the usefulness it adds to her utility. This allows her to plow through even the most defensive units such as Hardin when triggering Moonbow while utilizing Death Blow 3, the safety of Hit and Run, and the buffs from flier support skills (which makes her pretty easy to build as these skills are on Donnel and Klein because of their rarity). Also, with the addition of Sacred Seals, she has the luxury of running double ploy. Because of this, not only is she able to support the team as a whole, but turn her into a destructive juggernaut.
Aside from the def ploy meme builds, her color, class, and stats also give her many varied and viable sets, such as a bulky set witha Berkut's Lance set, or a Firesweep Lance+ set (with +3 speed seal and speed boon and also works great with emblem teams with goad or hone fliers). With a team consisting of Est, Myrrh, Marth and Azura NY, I was able to beat Chrom and Lissa's BHB on my first try. Not to mention her great availability and access, which makes it easier to give her an optimal IV, she can be easily merged giving her amazing arena scoring potential and buffed stats. This makes her an amazing stand alone unit, but becomes an absolute monster that rivals FH Robin in stats.
Her art is also top tier, hailing from the only the greatest artists that Pixiv has to offer. Not to mention, she has one element many of the units in the game lack. She has the cool factor. Est is so insanely rogue, that every top tier player will respect you to no end. Lastly, she is objectively the best Whitewing, but to I will not elaborate as to not spoil the story of the Archanaea saga. To conclude, I believe that many people need to give Est a better chance than saying she is simply tier 3. Give her the skills and merges necessary and she won't disappoint. The FEH meta fears the day she gets a PRF weapon.
...and I thought I was cool with my brave lance+ and Death blow.
Garrett Marzo Same here
I wonder if Eirika can do this as well.... Because I have 4 eirikas. And as far as counters go... I have like no one who counters specific types aside from marth and caeda.
Eirika has terrible attack, though. If she's not running her refined Sieglinde, she's basically just a buff bot.
is a 4* +9 better than just a regular 5*??
Emen Bollim a 4*+9 is usually equal to a 5*+4
John Roberts ty!
Basically and generally, every 4★ unit is equal to his/her 5★ counterpart with 5 merges on the 4★. Eg, 4★+5 = 5★, 4★+6 = 5★+1, etc.
Statwise yes but you get more arena points with a 5 star.
If she can reach 70 as a 4*+9, Imagine a 5*
Hey Sacred Spear, do you think Flame Siegmund for Normal Ephraim is worth compared to his effect refinement?
I plan to make a short video about this topic (including Hector), but in summary I don't think its a strict upgrade. You lose the buffing capabilities and it will be slightly harder for regular Ephraim to position correctly for the guaranteed double effect. If you have both Ephraims I really don't think its worth it to spend more Divine Dew to make OG Ephraim into a lesser version of his cavalry variant. Regular Ephraim & Siegmund benefit more from being around his team and giving them some support, while Legendary Ephraim and Flame Siegmund want to be on their own sort of acting like a strike team that can flank the enemy from the sides.
The Sacred Spear yea i thought so too. Thank you!
Imagine this build but with Effie or W!Chrom. Scary.
Ikes. 70 Atk on the armor can be really Dangerous. Tip of the day: if you see this combinacion on the Arena , wacht out.
Looks like I'm going to enjoy build a Est (I igonored at fisrt, but this video change my mind). I want to try the same tactic but with deseperion (or quick response). Any tips for other shots outside of hit and run?
As for my uses, asside for Arena, it can be used for GHB and BHB and arena assult, I think.
I would like to recebe feedback about this, any tips will help for my case and build.
You could try out Desperation with the Brash Assault sacred seal. Use Fury for the a-skill and she can safely get into Desperation range and then melee units are in trouble with her high Atk power. Personally I use Hit and Run because it just further increases her effectiveness against armor units because they can only move 1 space normally and its nice when in a flier team.
that est its really op
Imagine using her as a +10 merged 5 star.
Wouldn’t LnD as an A skill push it even further?
Just a question though, why not use Glimmer or Draconic Aura/Fang?
Glimmer is better than Moonbow here, I just didn't inherit it because every time Est used Special she killed her target anyway. With this build its actually a little hard to build up special because since Est 1-shots her target I would need her to do that to 2 enemies before she was ready to unleash special on a green unit.
The Sacred Spear
I guess yeah but it's more about having her kill high def non-armored units. Her only real issue should be Lukas.
wait, should i merge my 4* hawkeyes? i have so many and i dont have a good 5* axe unit
That's up to you. 4*+10 units can be nice if its a character you don't really care to 5*, but you have a ton of copies laying around. They are also nice with builds more suited to specific counters that you can call upon for Arena Assault runs. You can invest in them to be pretty similar to 5* units, but their potential is capped compared to an actual 5*+10 unit. This is a resource management game and each person is going to have different priorities when it comes to investing in certain units.
With Def ploy she's eSt+ tier.
What are her full IVs, though? I got a +ATK Est too but mine is -SPD. Is it viable or should I shoot for another type?
Erynis Agni Perfect IVs for a Brave Lance build
I have a -Def Est, but I would prefer -Hp. For this specific type of build -Spd would be okay since I want to 1-shot units anyway, however I would recommend trying not lower her Atk or Spd if you can. The great part of a 4*+10 merge project is that you can start merging extra copies together now and in the future when you get the perfect nature you want, then you can merge into that copy. As the other comment mentioned, -Spd would also be fine with a Brave Lance build, so I say just try her out if you want. If you aren't satisfied, then you can wait for another nature later on.
Much appreciated.
Why not use the silver spear+ Atk refine?
Wow so many Est's I've given away for feathers feelsbadman
How merged are your opponents in this video
I'm kind of curious how well Caeda could pull this off.
While Caeda now has her own Wing Sword, I choose to use Est because she ties for 2nd highest attack out of all fliers + the merges grant another +4 Atk. Meanwhile, Caeda ties for the lowest base Atk out of all fliers with 10 less Atk than Est. She will still tear apart green armor units, but for red and blue armors it will be close. That being said, Caeda gets to blow up cavalry as well so I think she has her own benefits as well despite having a very low starting base Atk.
I'm pretty stupid but... Why not desperation?
Hit and Run is nice in this case because Est can easily retreat away from Armor units and their 1 space movement, so she stays safe after attacking. I'm also not investing in Speed with this build and a lot of new armor units are decently fast, some of them faster than Est. It can work and would allow her to set-up green armor kills, but I would have to support Est more for Spd.
Wouldn’t five starring an oboro have been better for getting heavy spear or est? So you could have plus 10.
You don't have to use skill inheritance to pass along a weapon if you are merging a unit. Merging will pass down every skill the copy you are sacrificing knows to the one receiving the merges. I promoted 1 Est to 5*, learned the Heavy Spear+ and then upgraded it to the Slaying Spear+. Then I merge this 5* copy into my 4*+8 and then I end up with a 4*+9 that knows Slaying Spear+. This is how you can get a 4* unit to learn their 5* unique legendary weapon if you are making a 4*+10.
The Sacred Spear oh
Is this a neutral IV est? Or is it a atk+ and def/res-??
+Atk/-Def
wHeReS dEf PlOy EsT (But seriously tho nice build!)
All I need is hone fliers...
So you're telling me.. Est is the best? ;D
