Some important Guide updates after the recent patch.

Post Body

Just a few heads up, this recent batch changed quite a few things so I've gone and updated some of the guides and analyses appropriately.

The biggest things are the following:


Douglas

  • Basically got completely destroyed by the patch.

  • His SBB's -50% BC drop rate penalty now works as written

  • Base drop rate for all moves is 35%

  • This means Douglas' SBB has -15% drop rate now, try it, his SBB produces 0 BC.

  • I can only assume this is an unintended result of a balancing act, so it may change in the future but for now, you can consider Douglas absolutely unuseable outside of metal parade.

  • FH teams are going to have to find a replacement for Douglas. He will no longer suffice.

  • EDIT: Gave Deemo a go, Deemo 3 Douglasses (I... did use Maxwell as my 5th, but any high hit count unit will do here) with a Grah friend and the Marauder item set was more than adequate in allowing me to get the Legwand in Terminus and the Sphere frog in End. So Douglas frontier still lives... sort of!


Zebra

  • His Leader skill has been nerfed to 150% like JPBF Zebra

  • This makes him outright worse than Maxwell and hurts crit teams quite a bit.

  • Still a strong leader skill now.

  • Mariudeth is now looking very nice as a leader too.


Mare

  • Her LS now does not apply to units dealing weakness damage through the element attribute buffs

  • This is the same as JPBF Mare.

  • Otherwise unchanged.


Maxwell

  • Like Mare, Leader Skill only applies to unit's original element, elemental attribute buffs do not work with her Leader Skill.

  • Zebra's nerf makes Maxwell even better by comparison though

  • Team building for Maxwell is now quite difficult.

  • Douglas nerf makes Maxwell even more top tier for FH.

  • Max Damage Reference Values guide also updated to be up to date.


More as things are revealed. Bear with me!
