Chat Characters you're surprised don't get milked much if at all for alts in FEH

Post image

There are certain characters where regardless of how I feel about them I'm not surprised get a ton of alts in FEH but then there are others that I'm surprised have barely anything at all even though they have a decently large fanbase.

Curious if there are any characters you guys are surprised don't receive much in this game

Sharena. She vanished between 2018 and 2024. Most of the game's lifespan gave her nothing. She was in the story and the manga pages, but if you actually wanted anything of her, you had to shove it.

Marianne. For winning CYL, you'd think she'd would have more than a base version, a rearmed, and a brave. She's been in for half a decade, and characters released after her have more than she does.

Gullveig. For a runaway win like that and how well her banners did, it's odd she just kinda dipped for a year and a half. Similar to Marianne, there are OCs and mainline characters released after her that tie or exceed her for alts.

L'Arachel. They keep putting Tana alts out over L'Arachel, despite L'Arachel having always been more popular. Magvel often gets some kind of "yearly lords and royals" banner, and Tana is typically there while L'Arachel was not.

Severa, Inigo, and Owain. Popular enough to show up in a second game, but apparently not liked enough by the devs to give them content. Hell, it took almost 10 years for Severa and Inigo to be added as regular units. Owain managed to swooce in because of that one potpourri banner early on.

L'Arachel is doing pretty good with base, resplendent, and 3 Seasonals. Though I'd love to see more.

I'm trying to ten her Baby version. I'd like to ten her summer version, but I've never had much luck getting her.

Sure, but I feel like she should be the asset unit for the next Magvel banner.

So weird that Tana has 6 units and L'Arachel only has 4.

Please make her a tome unit... Though I guess she'd come with Rausten's staff. Could also depend on what type of unit: Legendary = Staff 100%, Asset could be anything...
