Sadly on hard mode gambits do like 1 damage to him because of the ability he has. You could try fishing for Hilda's crest proc using divine blessing to reset, but that's iffy as hell. If you recruited Sylvain early you would have had the option to keep the special lance from the previous chapter, which combined with the anti-horse combat art should oneshot him.

Lmao I finally beat Golden Deer route. Felix and Leonie, two of my strongest units, end up together in the epilogue. What do these incredibly powerful warriors become? Street performers, because no one needs them for mercenary work anymore. In a sea of positive endings this just struck me as especially sad, like drat Byleth why not give them a pension or something these two singlehandedly defeated Nemesis after he one shot you

Honestly the dark seal classes aren't great? Like the only one who actually really gets use out of it is Hubert, and even then it's not great use? Neither mastery is amazing. Dark Mage has the better mastery if I had to judge, but yeah. Dark Mage is Posion Strike - If unit initiates combat and lands a hit, targeted foe loses up to 20% of max HP after combat. Dark Bishop is Lifetaker - Unit recovers HP equal to 50% of damage dealt after defeating a foe. The only Dark Magic bonus uses it gives is to Miasma. Though unless you planned to make him a Dark Knight or get him to S+ he won't get Dark Tomefaire so I guess his class doesn't honestly matter. I think Warlock mastery is better though.

so level ups are not changeable with a soft reset, but tea parties and certification trials are changeable does anyone know if Faculty Training can be changed if you keep at it? I'm short just enough gaining a level in riding that getting one "great" instead of "good" would probably push me over, should i keep at it or just give up and keep going?

I'm at the Chapter 4 fight and I didn't know it was going to be the Death Knight's first appearance (even though he's been mentioned if you talk to people while exploring). So while I did change Byleth to Thief meaning that he's got Steal, his speed is three points lower than the Death Knight. Luckily, I actually managed to make Hilda master her budding talent of Heavy Armor (because I wanted her to do something other than just axes) and unlocked Seal Speed. The only problem is actually hitting him since he stands on a avoid panel which I'll likely solve by using a Gambit to push him out of the panel.

It can take a while though. I know for a fact it isn't true (I've managed to go from Good to Great in one load) but at times it's felt like they got locked in a loop and I had to do another activity like fishing to knock them into Great. Again, certainly not how it works, but it can feel like that.

Made it to the end of part one and have many thoughts of which these are but a few: This exchange was probably my biggest lmao of the game so far (Black Eagles). Paraphrasing, but it was just the fact that it was all played completely straight: Ed: We should call ourselves the Black Eagle Strike Force Prof: I love it Ed: Wow thanks, I was up all night thinking of it Doing a whole bunch of A rank relationships for a single character in a row makes them seem kind of sleazy. When you see your war children all grown up for the first time filled me with straight-up joy in the way few, if any, video games have done before. This, more than any other moment, made me start immediately planning my next two runs. Encounters with former students and allies are kind of brutal at first but become more comedic as time passes. I think part of it is the constant tonal shifts between fishing and chior practice and the battlefield combined with how quickly things happen Oh cool it's Ignatz, I never recruited you but we were friends, I'm sure you're retreat and we'll fight again soo.... nope. Oh well. See you I guess. Oh look it's Claude.... etc etc And now I don't get to play for a couple of weeks

I finished edgelord route with no deaths. Heckin woof that was tough. That said boy, that ending really REALLY cheaps out on you huh. Just "by the way we went and started killing the slither guys off screen don't worry about them." Super lame. Edit: Lmfao Caspar married Edelgard what the gently caress haha. That said general FE credits thing but it's always a weirdly sad note whenever it mentions the units aging and dying. Even if it's happy and they changed the world for the better something about it always gives me a bittersweet feel. I usually walk away from these games liking the cast and trying to save everyone so ehh. Just me being odd. ThisIsACoolGuy fucked around with this message at 11:13 on Aug 4, 2019 |

Dark Mage in particular is such a strange class. The only characters who get dark spells naturally are Hubert and Lysithea, and the class is genderlocked so Lysithea can't be it and Hubert can't be recruited, leaving it only as an option for Black Eagle (unless you like the idea of someone else picking it up just to use Miasma forever). Not that it's that great on him either since the class doesn't even get Dark Tomefaire, it just has Heartseeker which isn't that great, and just going regular Mage gets you Fiendish Blow. I feel like the game would just be straight up improved if the genderlocked classes just weren't. In short: Dark Seals are a fairly baffling and only marginally useful item in the first place, don't feel bad about losing out on them.

Minus Peg Knight the genderlocked classes are so random that I wouldn't be surprisedi f they just didn't finish male/female costume/animation variants in time rather than anything to do with intentional genderlocking. Especially since Dancer not being genderlocked is in stark contrast to everything else, and there's tons of random ones like girls getting mercenary but not hero, girls getting warrior but not war master, gremory having Dark Tomefaire but Dark Mage/Dark Bishop being male only. And there are girls with brawling proficiencies that can barely use them.
