Gyoru posted:I'm about 20 hours in on Maddening/Classic according to my save. It starts pretty rough and you need to rely on the lone Armored unit you get for the first few chapters to wall or have Alear/a thief evade tank. There's a set of battles that I beleive are going to cause people to the lower the difficulty or switch to Casual because of the threat of units getting perma'd. Those encounters took me 5 resets because you lose the ability to rewind among other things so your army is at its weakest it has been for hours. Also skirmishes won't have unlocked at that point so no grinding your way out of it. How is it compared to like Conquest Lunatic or 3H Maddening? I'm debating whether to start on Maddening now simply because there's no route split so I'm unsure if I'm going to play more than once. And my frame of reference is that Conquest Lunatic is the least fun thing in the world that almost killed my interest in Fire Emblem and 3H Maddening is probably some of the most fun I've ever had playing an SRPG.

oh speaking of options, can you still only adjust the difficulty downwards during a playthrough

You move something and suddenly there's a fuckoff glowing trail from half the map across and you don't get gotcha'd by a unit you literally can't see on screen.

From what I've seen in gameplay footage, the lines are still there, they just don't tell you exactly who will get attacked. They show you which enemies a character is in range of. Triangle Strategy does the same thing. So you'd still see a line when you're moving a unit into an enemy's range, it just doesn't mean they're the unit who'll be targeted. They're basically threat lines rather than perfect targeting predictors.

Another unit I'm unsure of is Yukana. Poison still isn't great, and having no primary weapon break ability in a game that's greatly based around them seems iffy.

That’s how it works. When you put your cursor over a guy it shows you which enemies are all in range, but in my experience they seem to attack whichever unit they’ll do the most damage to.

It is kinda finicky in my experience, with Three Hopes it refused to unlock well past 9PM on the west coast and eventually I had to switch my console time to EST and do a full power cycle for it to recognize the game should be unlocked and let me launch it.

I haven't had any luck with a dodge tank, but maybe that's the one niche of Micaiah's otherwise bleh weapon blessing?

So is the story is at least as simple as Path of Radiance or more a Dragon Quest level here? I really liked 3H so I'm warily the story has moved to a children's level basic.

Second Seal options for obvious targets: Clanne/Anna, but otherwise it's kinda hard to justify using them? Even sword soldiers have value because they promote into heroes which have better passives than a sword peg.

Lapis, if you don't wanna reclass her, really has to go Hero (axe variation) if you don't wanna double up on classes, huh? Cuz Goldmary already has Hero (lance variation) and Kagetsu has Swordmaster. It's weird that they re-combined Myrmidon and Mercenary for this.

jean is kinda constrained by being a healer if you want him to throw his stats around. still not sure on how his skill works but his growths seem better than cyril's and also i think he has like a 25% build growth and fists are really light.

if you forge your fists into +2 for some reason then go from doing 0 damage to doing 11-16 and that's excluding x2, so that's a good investment i think there might have been a typo on the standard ones

Jean's stats are good enough you can kinda throw his stats at anything and he seems to work out. I'm making mine a Swordmaster because the idea of this british doctor kid turning into a katana master amuses me. I think he's probably the best person in the game to go Martial Master though, and since that class seems to be the only one that gets S rank martial arts that might be useful somehow?

Very initial thoughts. gently caress me the combat forecast is terrible Like it's real difficult to see what's actually happening in combat. I don't know why its been relegated to a tiny portion of the bottom of the screen.

yeah it's weird how the game refuses to tell you what actual weapon stats are and just gives you the difference from your current equipment. you could show both of these, it wouldn't be that confusing, i promise!

Eh, myrmidon/mercenary were always just basically the same thing anyway only myrms got to be worse most of the time by being more min/maxed with less strength and overkill speed/skill, if this game just gives you a big old list of master classes based on your weapon proficiency to promote to having having both just seems silly.

This time I have a massive portrait of Alear where I could have combat info instead. Also the combat forecast is annoying with the break system because I consistently think I'm going to take counter damage when the break will stop it.
