AHHHHHHH RIGHT AFTER SWORDHARDT TOO ITS HAPPENING-
Hello I just wanna pop in to say MEISTERSCHWARTZ GOT IT GOOD I AM A VERY HAPPY CAMPER CAUSE SWORDHARDT REALLY NEEDED SOMETHING LIKE THIS TO MAKE HIM DEADLIER
Much as I hated to say this Keaton and Altina kinda overshadowed him before
Refines are out. They’re neat.
Let’s start with me being angry: I hate that Mom’s Forsetti got a refine before like...anyone else who needed it more. It’s not too devastating either. They just gave Swift Sparrow 2 and a lower HP threshold for his desperation effect. So called that. The second effect is if Foe’s HP is over 75%, gives him +4 attack/speed, neutralizes his penalties to those stats, and neutralizes bonuses to foe’s attack/speed. So it’s damage and speed control, but with a frankly hefty condition. Good. Fuck Lewyn.
Genny’s fun. Attack +3, Dazzling effect, and Gravity effect. If within 2 spaces of an ally and initiating for some reason, +5 attack/res. Restores 7HP to self and allies within 2 spaces after combat. Decent effect but nothing as crazy as the last two. Let it be written: any unit who is the last of their weapon type to get a refine within a set shall be worse than what came before (Effie, Nowi, Genny).
Arden’s hilarious. Dual phase Brave sword, and if he’s at 50% or more HP, gets +4 attack, +6 defense, and Guard. Nice. I don’t care much about Arden but that’s a solid refine.
Last up is Bownoka. It’s not too bad, and reminiscent of Camilla but less restrictive. Attack/Speed +4 to her and all allies within 2 spaces, as long as there is such an ally around. Refine inflicts -4 attack/speed/defense on foes within 3 spaces during combat. All in all, that’s...actually amazing. It plays really well into her own offensive stat spread, seriously benefits her team regardless of composition, and provides a very nice debuff for all allies fighting near her that also stacks with Rein skills. I like it a lot.
Overall solid. Nothing feels too ridiculous, and I’m glad Forsetti’s refine isn’t that fantastic. God I hate him.
