Tae posted:Hmm, it might be route exclusive or it requires bringing him to the battle. Cause I'm black eagles and didn't bring him (despite him on my roster), and I got asked if I wanted to keep it or not by Rhea after the battle. i brought him + had him fight his brother and the monster as yellow deer, i also gave it back because i assumed it wasn't a real choice

Well missed out on op weapon. On other hand, he's been sitting on the bench since I poached Lysi, Marianne, and Shamir. (I need to recruit a heavy hitter, my team is like 90% range people)

Lord Koth posted:If Lysithea isn't an offensive monster then something has gone very, VERY wrong in terms of RNG. She's super min-maxed, with base Mag/Dex/Spd growths of 60/60/50. The problem is that all her other growths are literal dumpster fire levels of bad (seriously, she's got 25 Res/Cha growth, 20 HP, 15 Str/Lk and 10! Def) so don't let her get hit by anything - including other mages. I was honestly considering slamming Lysithea into Hero/Mercenary just to get the pity strength/defense boosts to make it easier for her to double people and not die. Thoughts? Also it doesn't seem terribly worthwhile to stick around in the beginner classes long enough to master them for a measly +2 stat ability you probably won't have room for long term.

Well, here’s a better question - is there a “best order” to play the stories? I was thinking Black Eagles first originally, but then I got kind of excited by Blue Lions because of Dmitri’s look in the 2nd half.

Well, it's a relief that the stories are different enough then, would be a giant slog to play through it twice more after finding out how late the time skip is, I've already put 10 hours in and I'm only halfway there

praising a character for being boring is just so crazy to me corrin is naive and kindhearted to a fault, which are their defining character traits whether or not you liked fates story is another story but at least corrin has defined character traits i couldn't really tell you what byleth's defining character traits are outside of being slightly snarky

Does anyone know when Manuela becomes available to recruit? I’m in Ch. 5 and still hasn’t even given me the option Morden, you’re absolutely right about Byleth. It’s just that zero is greater than a negative number so they’re still better than Corrin. Tae posted:After two rounds of attacks, if you don't win, you lose. That’s hosed up

Since the other characters in Three Houses are actual characters it makes Byleth's dullness a character trait as it gets pointed out as well.

I'm avoiding reading too much of the thread for spoilers so sorry if this has been answered already: - What does the WT stat on shields and equipment do? I'm assuming it's a downside? - How do I give gifts or return lost items to people? I've tried speaking with them but the option never comes up

I took down the bonus boss in Chapter 4! Here's how I did it: These are the Death Knight's stats. He can counterattack from anywhere, is sitting on an obnoxious +40 Avoid tile, has 15 AS, and gets a powerful weapon with a high crit rate. He doesn't move at first, but if you ever attack him, he will activate on enemy phase and use his 8 Movement to kill someone.  For my strategy, I wanted a Lord, who provides +3 damage to adjacent allies with the Charm skill; a strong bow unit who could attempt to get chip damage from the other avoid tiles; Byleth; and a powerful Lance user with C Lances. Since I'm playing Golden Deer, Claude was my Lord and my bowman in one, while Leonie was my best lancer. Leonie works particularly well because she gets +2 damage from being adjacent to men, and my Lord is male, so she gets +5 when she's next to him. By this point, I had also raised Byleth to level 10 and promoted him to Mercenary. Other characters chipped in too. Hilda's personal skill gives a damage boost to men:  And I got Ignatz up to D Authority earlier, which unlocks Rally Speed for him. That let him rally Claude, pushing Claude's AS high enough that the DK couldn't double him.  If I hadn't rallied, I would have to pray for at least one miss and no crits. But now, Claude only has to avoid the crit. You might have noticed Petra over on the other side of the boss; she's there just to provide support bonuses, giving a small boost to my hit rates.  Now my Lord is on a diagonal from the boss. Anyone adjacent to him will get +3 damage, so in particular the squares above him and to his right get the boost. Before I exploit that, I move Hilda up. I need to block the mage in the north, or else that mage and the one to the west would both be able to attack a single unit. That would be bad news because the Death Knight cripples anyone who attacks him.  Byleth moves in. He also needs to avoid a crit, but his Speed is naturally high enough that he doesn't get doubled when using a light enough Sword. If it weren't that high, I would have to use a Gambit from Jeralt's Mercenaries for chip damage instead (with a much worse hit rate), and my other attackers would have to use Steel weapons, which have worse Hit and would weigh them down.  Lastly, Leonie finishes things with Knightkneeler.    She gets a nice reward for her efforts.   We're not out of the woods yet! Since Claude didn't dodge, he's so weak that the western mage will one-shot him.  But Marianne is here to save the day with Physic.  So the three mages around the Death Knight move in, but everyone lives, and we're ready to take on the rest of the map.  Zoran fucked around with this message at 20:33 on Jul 27, 2019 |

You take your speed stat, and then subtract the weight from equipment, and that's Attack Speed, which is what gets checked for double attacks. Your strength stat mitigates weight, and there are skills that do it too (I don't know exactly what they are) It'll come up as quests in exploration. I believe lost items won't even spawn until you're assigned the appropriate quest.

I found like 7 of them on the way to Jeralt to learn how to give people lost items. It was very silly

Finally downloaded the game today and I’ll just sell the CE off when it finally shows up. (I’m keeping the steelbook though.) I’m loving the game so far.Endorph posted:there's no best order except that black eagles are the one with the biggest split, so i wouldn't recommend saving them for last because then you'll do them twice in a row Could you elaborate on this please?

Oh that’s cool. Thanks for elaborating.

PSA: if you get an item during a cutscene, and Byleth's inventory is full, the prompt is to discard an item, not send it to convoy. It's almost impossible to believe but it just happened to me.
