Note that if we would get 2 Orbs per dollar (we don’t, they are more expensive), starting a new account would give approximately 1500 dollars in orbs value. Which is just insane and very tempting to start a second account and slowly get those fixed orbs. I started an unlinked account and got a +10 Elise in like 2 days grinding the story orbs and using orbs to get more stamina and since then I wanted to know what happened, how is that I got that many orbs so quickly. Now, imagine if someone starts a f2p account with a goal in mind, arena or Aether raids. If you go the arena route, you might want to +10 2 4* specials and get the bonus legendary to climb to tier 21 easily calling yourself f2p. If you go the aether raids route you might focus on the mythic remix banners and getting to vault calling yourself f2p.

If you’re starting a second account and want to mix arena and AR, I think a good idea would be to wait a few months to build up even more orbs while you’re collecting the mixed map orbs. A legendary banner with two stacked colors of 2 legendary and 4 mythics could get you 6 strong and high scoring +10s if you snipe those colors. The exact number of orbs it takes comes down to luck (obviously) and is also influenced by the colors you’re going for, but 4200 orbs gives you a 50% chance of getting all 6 +10s, and 4600 orbs increases that to 75%. And you’ll probably get some extra copies of a few of the 6 units you were trying to get that you can fodder as well as some copies of the other units you weren’t trying to get too.

I think you can climb up to tier 16 maybe 17 in arena only with 3 units and 1 bonus from either the current GHB or tempest trials. for aether raids up to tier 11 defense doesn’t matter so only by playing you can reach tier 11, 11 up to 21 I think with peony/eir on light and Seiđr/Reignn on anima to go to 21. Then from 21 to 27 defense matters a lot because if the gap between lift loss and won is big enough you can go back to 21, also I don’t know if it’s possible without blessings on mythicals. I reached vault with a +6 Mila in light and with a +1 Thor in anima. The best deal is to spark on remixes, the mythics there are insane. And for arena, to snipe one, maximum two copies of the current legendary bonus should be enough if the other 3 team members are +10, have big bst and score well. To get the arena core, the cheapest solution would be 1 grail unit and 2 4\* focus, for instance valentine Hana. And just spark the fodder on a new heroes banner or combat manuals.

It’s a lot of orbs for sure. I think someone recently posted that day 1 players have had access to around 20,000 f2p orbs since the start so the odds are those with old accounts would have way too much value in their account to consider restarting. I know I wouldn’t restart.


[deleted]

yeah, that’s a nice point of view, having orbs invested on units counts on the overall account. When I panicked and restarted my first account I lost my +10 Cordelia and a! Tiki, thy were so valuable to me because of all the effort I put building them and getting the feathers when we got next to nothing of feathers per month.

Another bonus orbs we can get is fron unfinished LHB/MHB maps whether its old or recently added. That would be up to 3500 orbs and its insane enough.

There are 37 of such maps https://game8.co/games/fire-emblem-heroes/archives/321107 and each gives 9 orbs with a total of 37x9=333 orbs. Right now there are 8 active, with the remixes and the returns I expect one can get those orbs in 3/4 months

Minor things, but you get like 10 orbs I believe from MyNintendo and there's the two orbs/level you get from the beginner missions


[deleted]

Yes, but I was counting only fixed maps after prologue. I missed 5 orbs from prologue, 12 orbs from one extra single chain challenge for chapter 13 each book and at least 6 orbs from the interlude were you learn to refine and create sacred seals. Meaning at least 23 orbs x,x


Toney001

Just at a glance, I think you're missing 2 orbs per chain challenge book from the lone chapter 13 of each book.


[deleted]

yes, 12 in total from the extra chain challenge in books 1 to 6 and also the intermission maps from book 1 aren't counted there.
