Getting The Most Value Out of FEH Pass

With the FEH pass, you get two quests which give you a bunch of free things and two resplendent heroes.

These refresh on the 10th and 25th of each month (with the exception of the first month’s refresh period being different). This means that if you buy the FEH pass somewhere between the refresh periods, then you’re able to get three Resplendent Heroes and complete three quests-worth of content.

Basically, in order to get 1.5x value out of the FEH pass, you have to overlap your buying of it with the refresh period.

Nintendo confirmed that this was allowed. You can see that post here.

So, instead of costing $120 per year to get all of the resplendent heroes, all you’d have to spend is $60, along with receiving all of the bonus orbs, divine codes, and grails from the FEH pass quests.

This means that if you bought the FEH pass on day 1, you’re wasting a little bit of money. Not much, though.

The only problem with this is that you have to be very adamant about canceling your subscription and rebuying the subscription every other month. I recommend setting up calendar reminders using your calendar app to do this.

Overall, I believe it’s a pretty good deal when compared to the price of orbs.

If you want to buy orbs, then each orb basically costs somewhere between $0.50 and $0.60 if you’re buying the medium-large sized orb packs (see more about the $/orb ratios here). With the FEH pass one-and-a-half-month strategy, we can get 15 orbs for the price of $10. If we take the normal price of orbs to be about $0.55 each, then after the price of orbs are subtracted, you’re paying $1.75 to get:

  • Three 5* units (with +2 to all stats)
  • 3 x 120 divine codes
  • 3 x 50 grails
  • 3 x 120 aether stones
  • 3 x 35 divine dew

Considering that the “normal” price of food in the US is $42 per person per day ($17/meal) according to budgetyourtrip.com (here) and about $17/homecooked meal according to valuepengiun.com (here), $1.75 every other month doesn’t seem as bad, and $10 every other month also doesn’t seem to be very much.

Just for your information, the orbs received from the FEH pass quests count towards the “bonus” orbs. Though they are not “true” bonus orbs, they count as such.

However, if you don’t support this business practice, then of course, you can choose not to purchase the FEH pass. Nintendo did make this deal pretty enticing, though.
