DLC pass trailer dropped on a random Wednesday night when I'm kinda sick and I still get excited enough at the lords to be route confirmation that I blow out my voice even more. I love this game so much and I'm so happy that more content is on the way

Enlist the aid of powerful gods Mars, Aurora, Smyrnos, and Jurah in battle

Wave 2

Releases: Winter 2026

• Enlist the aid of powerful gods Mars, Aurora, Smyrnos, and Jurah in battle
• Gain the ability to wear new outfits

I tried to pin point out which marvel hero it is till my friend gave me the right hint haha

I made the spear itself out of wood and hand-wrapped the handle with exactly 100 feet of paracord. I only know it was exactly 100’ because I was shocked the 100’ roll I bought covered exactly the entire thing. It’s about 8’ long in total, I’m not exactly sure if I got that dimension correct as I loosely based it off of in game screenshots. Can’t wait for someone to figure out how to rip models from this game as there are a lot more weapons I want to make!

I highly recommend that everyone try opening the final door before finishing the second arc of any route, just to see what happens. You can even play through a bit of the main story battle!
(I’d recommend reaching at least Chapter 3 of the second arc first, though, so you have a better idea of what’s going on.)

Not only will you get yelled by doing so, but the enemies also seem genuinely confused, like, “Wait… huh? Just the three of you?”
And if you lose, the game literally push you out of the door.

DLC got announced yesterday with 4 other stories for the other lords. I'm still going to do the discussion threads for the lords and their group as I had originally planned. When the DLC comes out some time next year I'll redo the threads for the lords and their crew depending on how the DLC goes.

The order for recruitable enemies I'll be going in is going to be Kiroc(done) -> Majide(done) -> Zarcone -> Jasmine(done) -> Benditz(done) -> Alexandra -> Nuzzuo -> Inyoni -> Peppe. After that we will then start with all the lord groups.

Alexandra is a lovely pegasus knight who serves at Jurah’s Temple at the upper levels of Dagsion. She’s known as the “Silver Maiden” and has many fans. Since she’s from a renowned family, there are also many who envy her privileged lifestyle. She joined the Heroic games at her uncle's demand and advanced through the early rounds without fighting anyone. Her first fight she does in the Games is against Dietrich, Theodora, and Leda's group.

A lot of people have worried that with a full eight paths, even if the story and presentation are great, the game will simply be too bloated and tedious to play. But while tediously grinding my last unrecruited characters on Dietrich's path, the thought occurred to me: Almost all the things making the game tedious and less fun will be significantly mitigated by having a full path for each of the sublords.

Right now, the only way to have about half of the cast feature in the game at all is to relentlessly grind meals and gift-giving to get them up to the requirements for recruiting them. Not only that, but characters often have a high renown threshold as well for recruitment, which drives the player to complete lots of sidequest content they might otherwise consider skippable. The effort expended raising character relationships with the main lord, in turn, makes it harder to get the supports you might want to see between two secondary characters. And all of this is doubly unrewarding, because in Part 1 deployment slots are very low; on most missions you'll only have your core squad + mandatory recruit, and you'll never see more than 1-2 added on top of that before Part 2. So, completionists recruit a bunch of characters that end up just riding the bench.

But if every sub-lord has a full route, this is all greatly mitigated. Now, almost 100% of the cast will be part of a team automatically -- rather organically, every team will be just about complete with its core 4-5, 1 mandatory recruit, and 1 recruitable boss. Now, if you think Ursula or Sha Lan or Diego are cool, you'll get plenty of time to play them in a part 1, and they'll carry over into Parts 2 and 3 without needing to grind a zillion meals with them for the opportunity. That means less time doing busywork that most people seem to hate, and a lot more time doing fun battles while still getting to see the whole cast.

That said, I really hope Nintendo patches meals/gifts to be more powerful, because man seeing the great supports is still a chore.

So in part 3, you can send out several squads of up to 8 units each. If you park your squads on the same feast spot, and then eat like one small vegetable, those that heal 2 HP, and 2 Magic, all those units will build supports with each other, so basically like meals at the inn, with up to 40 units at a time, 5 times each turns. So if you want to max out supports between everyone, this is the way to do it quickly

Edit: I would add a clip to show how degenerate this is, but the only clips my switch 2 can save by itself are 30 seconds long and consist of me spamming A for bond pop ups

What do you mean Aswan learned about Bertrand being alive because of Dante's play about him ? Holy butterfly effect, without it, she'd never brought the Blood Axe, so Bertrand either lose against Orchel or Dietrich, and we never get him as a Flame Lord since no Blaze Arts ?

What can't this messy redhead do

Olympia is probably one of my favorite new characters in Fortune's Weave so far. Her personality in Leda's route really shines. She has so many funny moments with the rest of the cast, her sapphic coded rivalry with Leda is entertaining, and when Leda's doing the most it's always Olympia who puts her in her place.

Not to mention she's a Nosferatu queen in battle.

I wish she had more supports because she steals every scene she's in.

Mother!

The game's got so many randos with one or two supports, guest characters playable for like 2 chapters, and NPCs that fall off the face of the earth, so which of these obscure characters is your favorite?

Personally, I love Inyoni, the slayer of the endless waves of flying reinforcements during Part 2 and my S support of choice at the end of my playthrough.

I'd also like to mention the GOAToh Klapka, truly the most powerful endgame character since the Laguz royals. Shoutout to all the true Mosa patriots™ out there!

This is probably Balor's human form.

Long hair, muscular arms and legs and abs, unlike his brother who is fat and bald.

Assuming the dlc routes follow generally the same structure as the four base game routes, I tried to find the first recruit in the dlc routes. My choices are based on what weapon types the teams already have access to, what niche the teams lack and what neutral characters are left. With neutral characters, I mean any characters that aren´t already participants in the Heroic Games, as well as characters that are already the first recruit in any other route.

Fiery Mane

Betrand-Axes

Gaitz- Lances and Mounted

Dante- Black Magic

Goliath- Axes and Armored

Jester- Swords

I think Peppe is the most likely choice, since Bertrand's team lacks a bow user, and you need to do Bertrand's paralogue to recruit Peppe in the other routes. However, his team also lacks a dedicated healer. Something every single other team has access to, but there aren't any neutral healers left. Dietrich gets Yang Jie, and Theo gets Sophia. I guess they could also do a repeat with the first recruit.

Tale of the Moon

Talimun- Black Magic

Ursula- Bows

Simon- Axes

Ludia- Swords

Fiana- White Magic

What Talimun's team lacks is a lance user. There are two neutral units left (Leda gets Catania), who could fulfil this role are: Nydine and Io. Both of them are mounted as well, so a perfect fit.

Bridal Party of the Pale Raven

Anatolia- Gauntlets and Black Magic

Shan Lan- Gauntlets and White Magic

Nezha- Swords

Dadao(Ugh)- Axes

Halvin- Bows

Again a lance user is missing. So Nydine or Io.

Linaria Dewdrops

Orchel- White Magic and Axes

Diegos- Bows

Seteh- Lances and Mounted

Ninae- Lances and Mounted

Loretta- Swords

The fact that Seteth and Ninae fulfil very similar roles is very strange. A dedicated Black Magic user would be best here, but there aren´t any neutral units like this at all. Another thing this team lacks is a Gauntlet user, so I think Noctula could be the first recruit. She is easy to recruit but isn´t the first one in any route.

I’d hate for him to still not get any conversations with him considering both him & Talimum have major beef with each other.
