font-size: 12pt;\">But in regards to FEH, I still play because I have these pointless hopes of assembling perfect teams that can run roughshod throughout the game, be it in the arena or any of their rotating challenge modes, but in order to assemble what I believe to be perfect teams, I have to get the necessary characters in order to build them, which has been about as possible as making pigs fly, yet I still keep on trying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Or, in the case of October, there are sometimes just characters that are released that I simply want, usually because most of the time they\u2019re sexy anime wimmins that feed into my inner-15-year old that wants to fill my roster with gold five-star sexy women characters, so that one of my set teams can be \u201cSexy Team.\u201d\u00a0 And the crown jewel of the October Performing Arts roster to me, was the special green-class Azura, and I really wanted to get one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">But, because FEH has worse odds than winning at a slot machine, such a want was one that was going to be something with an extremely unlikely chance of happening, but it still wasn\u2019t going to stop me from trying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">So all throughout October, I sat on my orbs and opted to simply hoard and save as many as I could, until I reached the point where the Performing Arts promotion neared its end, and then I would cash in all my orbs and try and get the Azura (or Hector, since he\u2019s also a green unit) I was hoping to get.\u00a0 And because I thought it would be fun to document the shit show, I notated every single pull and result, just to really get some concrete evidence of just how much of a yeoman\u2019s job acquiring choice units is in FEH.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">I amassed 203 orbs throughout October by the time Performing Arts reached its final day.\u00a0 My rules were quite simple: only green or clear pulls, since at the time, I wanted to get a special Olivia as well.\u00a0 I actually got an Olivia fairly early on, which salvaged the entire experiment from being a completely utter failure, which allowed me to target only green units afterward, but the bottom line was no red pulls; they\u2019re simply the most abundant class, and I certainly didn\u2019t need anymore red units than I already had.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">Ultimately, I made a total of 45 pulls; ten were clear and three were blue pulls, in those unfortunate draws where there were neither green or clear pulls to take, and the orbs were already used (naturally, these themselves were a tragic waste like Subaki and Donnel), and I made a total of 32 green pulls, with hopes of acquiring just one special Azura or regular Hector.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">This is where I say \u201cnaturally, the results were underwhelming\u201d or something as equally nihilistic at the shit show of garbage that I actually ended up drawing, but because I diligently documented all of it, I can actually be very specific to the crap that I amassed:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">5 Cecilias<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">4 Gunters<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">3 Ninos<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Lora;

font-size: 12pt;\">The bottom line is that in the end, and to absolutely no surprise at all, I did not get the Azura I was hoping to acquire.\u00a0 I was salty the last time I hoarded up 200+ orbs and went to town trying to get a single unit and fell short, but by now, I\u2019m astutely aware that regardless of the statistics and the chances and the numbers, getting some characters are borderline impossible.\u00a0 As far as I\u2019m concerned, Azura, Hector and Takumi aren\u2019t actually available for regular players, and those who have them are hacking cheaters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">So until next time I decide to hoard orbs for another try at imaginary characters, I probably won\u2019t be posting about FEH again, but rest assured I\u2019ll still likely be playing on a daily basis.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Because I apparently like being in abusive relationships, yes I\u2019m still playing Fire Emblem: Heroes on my phone.\u00a0 Mostly on account of the fact that I\u2019m kind of OCD and I tend to do the same things every day, all the time, and playing FEH is kind of one of those said things that\u2019s kind &hellip;
