It's Joshua. I'd use him even if his stats were crap lol.
So far he's been tanking even Lances in the training tower. He's pretty great.
It took me the longest time to figure out he was cheating when he said “How about a small wager on the toss of a coin? Heads, I win. Tails, you lose.”
A common trick no one guess
There I was, 5.25% pity rate on the Halloween banner, I had run out of candy to bait Sakura with. Orb after orb was simply a 4* archer or cleric. I open up my summoning session this morning and see my five orbs.
Green
Green
Green
Green
Blue
I let out a pained cry, and open the lower left green, not knowing whether I wanted a release from the torment or another chance at Sakura.
*HELLO, MY NAME'S NNNIIINNNOOO*
And there I sat, wondering if I would continue to let this banner steal my orbs away from the 5* heaven banner, or if I would let this 5% pity rate go. I searched my mind for the answer, and two crystal clear words emerged.
*I REFUSE*
I opened the green on the upper left and got Henry.
Great video, Pheonix.
Garrett Seno okie dokie then
*slow claps* *gets up from seat* *applauds loudly* *crowd follows*
I got a Sakura in 15 orbs while trying to summon for Henry, if only there was trading
Lmao i've been trying to get a nowi and got a 5* ryoma 5*sigurd and a 5*caeda. I've been blessed with amazing bad luck. I just want my flying loli :,(
I had a similar situation. I was green sniping for Henry, and had gotten up to 4.25%. I then proceed to get 3 circles with no green orbs, with the last one popping a 5 star Luscius and no other 5 stars. The Troll Engine is strong in this game.
its a bit more expensive, but i found spd ploy on a DC build to be more effective than def ploy to help against the really fast units like Ayra and Mia
Joshua one of my favorite myrmidons in the entire FE franchise. A little sad he's not as good as I would have liked, but I'm glad he's pretty good and a free unit. Lets just hope when Rutger is added, he's good as he is in Binding Blade
Yeah, hope so for rutger, but remember what seth became in heroes in comparison with sacred stones
yeah, they did Seth dirty, as well as Roy with his Binding Blade... and Shiida, not giving her the Wing Spear...
Binding Blade should get a buff with Forging. Where it actually increases Roy’s defense and res by 4. like Blazing Durandal or Divine Tyrfing. Thatd make Roy more viable
Brandon Martinez agreed, it's totally unfair with roy, binding blade is one of the best swords in fire emblem, and its effect in heroes does the same as the normal naga tome, but the naga tome is actually effective against dragons :/
Brandon Martinez make it 25 might with distant counter and give Roy +5 Def/Res just like in the game.
Joshua can literally do anything. It’s amazing that one of the best Sacred Stones characters is so unique when it comes to Heroes
Yay! I was hoping this video would be out by the time I got home from school, and it did! Thank you for all of your hard work Phoenix!
Dear IS,
Enough units have Moonbow. Give us more Bonfire and Iceberg.
I'm a little sad that the Artist didn't draw Audhulma as his sword instead of the weird one we got.
Mmmmmm that Sacred Stones music in the back makes me so happy.
My name is Joshua so he is instantly SSS+++ Tier
If your favorite character has your name or your name is similar is it narcissism
Of course he's good.
Have you see his hair ?
John Jonas Or when he says "Hello"?
I love that quote, the way he says it.
John Jonas so do I
Best boy is FTP, which is great that I don't have to sell my organs to even summon him. Plan to give him Distant Counter, QR, and Speed Ploy
This certainly gave me some ideas of what I can do for my Joshua. Thanks for this video PM1 and have a happy Thanksgiving.
Happy thanksgiving Pheonixmaster1!🦃🥧
Caellach disliked this
Puffrexpuff they still friends... I think
End me Umm...You remember what he did to Joshua's mother. And what Joshua said happened to Caellach when Dorcas asked him.
He can't dislike if he is dead
Woomy speaking of the "Hero" villain, hope he's a future Grand battle like Valdier
I got a Nephenee for the free summon on the new banner. Your Fury-Wrath build was the first thing I thought, nice to see it is viable.
I was thinking of doing a Fury Vantage/Desperation set with threaten Spd or Def while giving him the Close Defence sacred seal and also having him use Iceberg or Glacies cause his high res during enemy phase with this build allows him to be a good damage dealer
106 Orbs ... I have 106 Orbs. Next week is going to be a RNG feast. I swear if dont pull at least 3 5stars i will be mad.
I wish you good luck for next week my friends.
I just got Joshua at the same time this video came up so Lucky me!
Just like in Sacred Stones, Joshua is definitely solid for most of the Heroes content. Balanced bulk and good speed. With the right support, he can be pretty flexible if you can build him correctly.
I saw the Swordbreaker Alfonse as a counter and I thought to myself after your explanation “Alfonse is seen in Arena as a Joshua Counter? Never thought I see the day.”
Good analysis as always! Can’t wait to build him!
Happy thanksgiving Pheonix! Hope you have a good thanksgiving! I know I will on top of celebrating my mom’s birthday!
It's a miracle, Alphonse may no longer be a bench warmer
perfect timing with the upload
I literally just clicked off of a video when this released
One unit you didn't mention who has good synergy is Brave Lucina/Lancina.
With Ally support (and 0 merges on both) She successfully raises Joshua's speed by 7-8 depending on spacing. And due to the effect being invisible (spur like) they are not victim to Panic Ploy. Joshua can have 41-42 speed in combat, which means he is not doubled by most of the common lnd/swift sparrow users. If someone were to use Joshua in Arena, I would recommend Summoner Support to fix his lack of merges. And allow characters like Lute, Dorcas, and Lucina to get +10 merges who imo, do very well with him.
FuzzyKuriBalls I have B!Lucina so I might just do that
Add a spur spd to Blucina and a hone speed dancer or axura and he pretty much doubles everyone.
Lancina already has Drive Speed.
Drive Speed > Spur Speed due to spacing. yes, 1 speed more is nice. But I'd rather have Drive over Spur imo.
FuzzyKuriBalls oh i meant a spur spd SEAL.
Very nice PM1, you sound so professional now, keep up the good job
Thanks!
My set is enemy phase with Iceberg, Steady Breath, Windsweep (would be changed to wrath once I have nephe) and Def Ploy. Close Def for seal.
Mine is audhulma (no shit) re position iceberg so that's a lot of fun fury (I have an S support with arvis with ardent sacrifice) wrath (I have so many God damned nephenees) and speed ploy (is that kinda odd, idk but I have so many God damn diedres lol) and close defense seal, he's pretty damn good
My build for Josh is Distant Counter, Vantage 3, and Threaten Def. His Sacred Seal is Distant Def 3. He's pretty amazing.
Perfect timing. I just got him in the tempest trials.
Just +1 merged my lvl 40 5* joshua. He's good.
What stats boost when you do that? HP and Speed?
LPJackal ^
Let me see who do I kill, Hector or brave ike?... oh wait! I have neither XD
Try using a villain team. Black Knight, Arvis, Ursula, and Valter.
One of those is not like the rest
PM1 everyone is always stacking DD 3 with DD 3 Sacred Seal but doesn't anybody realize if you take, say the DD 3 Sacred Seal and stack it with the CD 3 slot A skill you get +6/+6 Def/Res at all times on enemy phase. Slap it all on a distant counter unit with Quick Riposte, and Bam! A terrifying enemy phase monster where you don't need Steady Breath or Wrath. Thoughts?
Good point, Joshua is the perfect candidate for this since he has such good defenses
Ik I'm really late, but happy Thanksgiving to everyone! ^^
I'm probably going to sacrifice my 4* Joshua for his Windsweep; I'm planning on eventually building a Felicia with the perfect IVs eurgh this set:
*Poison Dagger+* (most likely, bit I still have to look into this)
*Flexible*
*Glacies*
*Distant Def 3* if available, if not then it could be anything like Fury, Warding Blow, Death Blow, so on...
*Windsweep 3*
*Def Ploy 3*
*Distant Def 3 Seal*
If you wanna quick set that doesn't require much money from me
I would give him
Auldhulma
Swap/Reposition
Moonbow
Close Def3
Quick Riposte/Desperation (Desperation is Optional if you plan to hone his speed like I might)
Threaten Def/Threaten Atk
Sacred Seal
Distant Def (if you have it I didn't get it)
Or if you wanna deal with Brave Weapons or Desperation set Units Deflect Melee 3
What if they make Fujin Yumi's upgrade into an Amiti? (-2 spd Brave weapon)
I'd love that.
No way, that would shoot Takumi straight back up to being an S+ Tier archer....in other words, that's wayyy too much lol
That would be nice tho huhu. Haven’t been using my takumi, he feels so obsolete now
SKADI
Hey, it WAS in Fates, and Heroes loves Norse mythology especially soooo.
That along with Fujin Yumi's original effect would mean the weapon would have 3 effects on it, and they've never done more than 2 effects on a weapon.
Takumi Needs this, FOR HOSHIDO
I was summoning for lute on the farfetched hero banner and ended up getting a 5 star Tailtiu. Since I already have her who should I give her Blarblade to? I wad thinking of giving it to either Ursula or Bunny Lucina, but I can't decide.
Bunny Lucina, more BST and already has a great A skill and stat spread. There are better blue cavalry mages for Blarblade like Olwen.
I would consider inheriting her abilities instead of her tome. All of them are generally good for buffing. You can inherent both her double rally and drive attack 2 if you have the right units to inherent, both of which are both 5* exclusive abilities
tailtiu gets drive speed at 4 star rarity iirc
Blarblade+ and Atk/Res+2 are the two 5* exclusive skills Tailtiu has, so you should probably inherit one of those rather than one of her 4* skills like drive speed or her double rally. I'd recommend inheriting Blarblade+ onto Bunny Lucina over Ursula, unless you have a good Olwen, Linde, or another better Blarblade+ user.
just keep it on Tailtiu. shes literally just Nino but blue. bunny lucina is not a good investment and Ursula is decent but not better unless that Tailtiu is -atk or -spd
New PM1 video life is good
You should not be surprised at the +5 res stat given on Joshua's weapon. Just look at the new weapons refinery upgrade options for the silver lance +. The Atk one essentially gives +3 Atk and +5 Hp, the Spd one gives +1 Atk +5 Hp and +3 Spd, and the Res/Def ones give +1 Atk +5 Hp and +4 Res/Def. It's pretty obvious that IS has realized that the value of the offensive stats (more so Atk than Spd) is much higher than defensive ones, and this is their attempt to find a fair balance.
Unlocked is great, the only way to see the streams though is when they are up
I love how you keep on with the smiling Reinhardt meme
Slap Iceberg on him. Pair him with Dorcas (Infantry Pulse). That gives him a 1 cooldown iceberg at the beginning of the map. Plop him in range of some melee unit. Close Defense seal along with his A skill gives him 42 DEF 45 RES against the attack, and Iceberg procs on his counter attack.
I got Joshua today thank you for this video pm1 your awesome😄😄
I'm going with a Distant Counter/Vantage set on my Joshua. with Close Def seal. You could he'll be a real Wild Card when I give him what I need for him
its impresive all set have joshua its really surprising counter
I see Rasouli's build is here.
i think I'm gonna do your steady breath quick riposte and but use speed ploy instead of defense ploy and use aether, I kinda have two joshuas what not have two different load outs for the, right?
hmmm I actually have an extra B!ike and a Chrom who I don't use because I have better sword units (plus he doesn't have the best IVs) so I might actually put Aether and steady breath on him
gave him my distant def 3 seal and he's just too tanky as a bonus unit in TT
This might be dumb but how about a windsweep savage blow build. It would lead to free damage and good poke
*but not Joshua , like a different unit
Nice job pm1 ^^
I think IS is more open to giving defensive stats to legendary weapons.
+3 spd or +3 atk max, but +5 def and +5 res is fine
my Joshua build rn
Audhulma
Reposition
Iceberg
Close def 3
Quick riposte
Threaten atk
Close def 3 ss
His special annihalates all melee units, and he's an amazing tank (unlike ss)
Okey what do you think about a team made of B.Lucina, Mia, Dorkas and Josh, i find it pretty good, idk if they really need a mage
I inherited Windsweep onto my Hinoka because of her weird speed stat so she can make good use of Phantom Speed.
*laughs in Dire Thunder*
Edy Ric define everything in *dire thunder* please
*Laughs in Deflect Magic 3*
Edy Ric sigurd
Piccolo he still dies to rein. It's just a little bit harder.
Andrew Kim magic is everything
12:20 But what if Joshua has his own swordbreaker?
Question, Promote and merge for a plus one Joshua or use the extra one for Windsweep fodder?
Haven't finished the video, but I'm pretty sure phantom speed will work for him.
Question: does wrath 3 give +10 damage from special if the unit’s HP is not below or equal to 75% (the wording indicates that only the cooldown is linked to the HP threshold)?
Only gives +10 Damage when below the threshold.
Thank you for clarifying. Poor wording on the ability. Great vid as always!
If iget hecto and dirdre on the legendary banner I will use him with DC quickreposte and deflect magic
nice touch with the music.
Is it that song from FFVI?
Would Blazing wind be a decent skill to get since it is getting a buff next update and this is to go with the windsweep.
Is that THE Pheonixmaster1
Is it just me or could Joshua run a dc build with his high defenses
PK Tim Yes he could! With high def/res, Joshua runs DC very well alongside QR. :D
HeroofEnelios in order to give him more survavibility i would suggest this: Dc, Noontime (which gets to 2 with 2.0), Qr and Distant def sacred seal
Sam il dracofono noontime is not good
Woomy
Yup
It heals miniscule amounts
Pheonixmaster1
Phoenix I have an interesting idea :
Because sol is having its cool down reduced to 3, it'll be a 2 turn cool down special on Joshua if he runs it. So, I thought about running a set with fury, wrath, def ploy (etc.), and the sol skill. If you consistently proc sol on him with wrath while having fury buffs, fury should help keep him below 75% health and wrath would help him heal more from sol when it procs while making a 1 turn cool down on player phase if he's in range. I'll call it "unkillable Joshua", but I never got nephenee for the wrath... If you could build this once the update comes out and if you deem it worthy that would be cool.
Summary:
W - Audhulma
Assist - flexible
S - Sol (2 turn)
A - fury
B - wrath
C- flexible
SS - close defense
Also, I think the reason Joshua gets +5 res AND special cool down charge from Audhulma is because, if you compare him to the previous units with complex weapons, the brave heroes / CYL treatment units, the heroes that had defensive buffs like lucina and Sigurd had CRAZY effects. Sigurd is he prime example, giving him insane survivability but when compared to Roy or Lyn, their weapon abilities are crazy but not as good. Ike is also a good example, I really like Roy and built him a life and death set, but Ike's weapon effects and synergy are simply better, because they're mainly defensive. +5 res on a weapon isn't as bad as +5 Atk on a weapon. To prove this is how NintendIllegentSystems thinks, if you look at the performing arts banner units, Olivia and Inigo had B slots that buffed attack and speed respectively of the unit you dance, while Shigure buffs BOTH Def and Res by the same amount (4).
Jared Burnett Nephenee is in a new banner so you can go get one now. Sonya's there too.
Tyto 31 That's what we call a 'bait' banner, though
Triverr Doesn't matter if the bait is actually good shit that people would want. Ayra was a true bait banner because of Eldigan cock blocking everyone that summoned for her.
Tyto 31 I mean, in the end it all comes down to what you want the most. If you prefer a Nephenee over any of the units in the Legendary Summoning Event banner then it's not a "bait" for you if that's your preference. It all comes down to what unit(s) each player specifically needs.
Is it good to use the second build in arena because i have merged all the arvis
Hey. You should do a unit review of Fjorm when she comes out. Because. Yea.
Add life or death 3 to him and he'll be an excellent offensive player phase unit. It requires taking his close defense off, but it's either that or mediocre offense good defense stats for him.
Adrian Brooks I don't think that's his best option though. Masked Marth would do that better imo. Don't get me wrong He's still really good.
I mean that just seems like a waste of his good mixed bulk.
Good thing I pulled a Deirdre yesterday xD
Even though we’re still getting mostly reds from Tempest, at least Joshua is rather good.
I’m just glad he’s free so that my orbs are safe for Fates kids banner
a lot of the more popular heroes are sword units for example joshua, black knight, arden, etc.
Booty McMuncher Still could use other units like a tome maybe
Im just gonna go Iceberg, CD, QR, whatever C and CD3 seal. Melee range ultratank. If his weapon was Falchion with the 5 res as he is he would be the single biggest dragon counter in the game.
I just noticed that only parthia and gradivus are the only regalia in the game, when are we gonna get the third.
I put lnd 2 on him with attack 2 sacred seal cause i dont have a 5 star hana with desperation 3 with threaten speed 3 he gets 52 attack 39 speed and 25 in both defenses :P
Charles Banks lnd is a waste of his defenses
I use him with quickened pulse seal ,threaten atk , renewal and close def
My five star Joshua is running audhulma (no duh) re position, moo bow fury quick riposte and speed ploy, he's pretty good
Moo Bow? Did you inherit it from a cow?
.....................................................................fucking auto correct.....................dammit
Yo when you gonna post T20 arena videos?? I've recently been kicked out of T20 so I gotta see how it's like now lol
I know this is rather random but, do you have any ideas for good units to give Watersweep? I have a bunch of Soren's I’m never going to be using, since I have other Good green mages already.
Reinhardt is a solid choice for Watersweep you could fuck up your opponents who face your defense team REAL good if they bait Rein with their mages. Use Phantom Speed 3 seal on a +Spd/Hone Cavalry Rein.
Low Res ranged units like Saizo/Summer Freddy/Matthew can use it.
Watersweep doesn't have too many uses compared to Windsweep.
Pheonixmaster1 Omg I never thought of putting Watersweep on Reinhardt nice idea
Well watersweep doesnt have many canidates but you can never have too many good green mages and in sorens case he is pretty above decent
I never thought you would swear
damn! I only have one Arvis, can I give him something else? Peri huh? if I get her 4* then maybe.
Im plus oneing him when i get the five star one i already five starred the four star one :3
Hey PM, why did it take so long for your video to get uploaded? I'm just curious
I was busy with some college work.
Pheonixmaster1 oh ok, great work as always!
I'm thinking that they see defensive stats as less powerful, so they don't mind giving him +5 Res in comparison to an offensive stat's 3.
his c skill I gave him def ploy and his sacred seal I gave him atk ploy is that bad?
You rock, thanks!
:D
2:00 IS can do whatever they want with their game, just look at Reinhardt, IN THE EYE!
Hi, I'm Joshua, a swordmaster. I'm also a mixed tank, yeah, I don't understand either.
A little note if I may. It's actually spelled riposte, not reposte :)
i gave him fury wrath and def ploy hes 👌
Moonbow is overrated I'd go with luna tbh but thats just me
Agreed. Luna, sword breaker , The Reinhardt destroys Sigurd/ moonbow does not. Also can't say enough praise of how Luna saved my heroes asses in infernal battles while moonbow failed to kill the enemy and led to defeat.
why not iceberg? since it is guaranteed at least 16 damage (without bonuses from fortify/rally/spur/etc.)
With joshuas sword it lowers the cooldown to 2 which is just as good and actually guarantees kills unlike shitty moonbow skill.Moonbow is praised too much and isn't really a good skill luna is always better because it allows for more kills.
Moonbow is overrated and is only good for a low cooldown but on physical units its not that good.Luna is always the better go to option especially for tanky units.
What if you gave him Wrath for +10 on each moonbow proc?
Aw yeah Joshua. Can’t wait to finish this video
*insert def ploy meme here*
Der Kuchenmacher DEF ploy Est is the best
Angel Madrid oh god pls stop
Chicken Men i'm joking
Angel Madrid ik but I still have bad flashbacks
Chicken Men oh god don't
*doesnt run distant counter because i rarely get a hector*
I subbed today
Thank you so much for subscribing,I hope you enjoy my content!
Who the FUCK would sacrifice Arya for a swift sparrow
Dhruv Mehta She's not the only one to have it, she's not even nearly the first one to have it.
I would lol
Robert Kane Yes but I’m saying why would you sacrifice such a great unit? I have a -attack aria and she’s still A GOD
Because some people prefer not to use such cancerous units.
Epic Manky But shes goooooooooood
Would fury be a better skill for him since all the buffs help him.
Swift Buizel I have a fury Desperation Joshua and he’s a monster. He bested an Ayra during player phase.
Piccolo do you use ardent sacrifice desperation
i was thinking steady breath guard aether. he can heal with aether to stay in guard range
he doesnt have the speed to double back so he wont actually proc aether that often
if you run steady breath on him you should go with quick riposte or wrath
Ah, good thing he has qr on him already from my shitty Leo. I need a bike tho
Booty McMuncher True but B lucina and buffs fix that no problem but I guess Quick ripose is still better in the enemy phase
Pheonixmaster1 I have 62 5* Units and I'm F2P Player, how many 5* units do you have now?
Johan Guzman F2P my ass
crap, beat me. 48 5*
I slapped a distant defense on him and with the buffed defenses, he's kinda unkillable without most of the enemy team
Distant Counter... the only reason why you added it is because of Rasouli.
Nah, Pheonixmaster's builds are always fresh - never frozen.
Distant Counter combined with a Killer weapon opens up a great enemy phase: Take a hit, hit with Moonbow active. I would like to try it, once I get a Hector or two to sacrfice to Joshua and Amelia.
Yeah because only Rasouli comes up with interesting builds. Foh
Joshua has high Speed, Defense, and Res. His Pref weapon increases his Res even more.
Distant Counter almost instinctively follows.
Naw, PM1 knows what he's doing.
+spd Hector reaches 28 spd. Windsweep on him is powerful on defense teams because it can force an attack on him while he is still in Armads range. It's pretty cool for defense, but there are better skills (vantage, renewal) for him in other game modes
I take he's not good with Wo Dao? I have a spare Karel and don't know what to do with him.
Use his prf weapon, literally no reason to run Wo Dao+ on him.
Pheonixmaster1 alright thanks! What units are good with Wo Dao?
Huh it's ll4nce Good Wo Dao+ users are Athena (but she has it by default), Lon'Qu, Gray (He can also run a Slaying; however), or Draug and Hana. If that Karel has good IVs; you can use it tbh
Mattroid nah I got 2 in one batch, one was -Hp/+Spd, the other was +Res/-Spd so I got a good one already
I like Joshua but how can I get him???
Joshua my boi
can you show us your F2P teams? and also teach us how you build teams?
Lmao his weapon is just like in fe saceed stones by giving 5 res and i cant wait till they realease vanessa with vidofnir
