Anyone can open any chest, don't need to be a thief. And if an enemy thief does get to them yeah you can just kill them.

also to be clear unlike previous FEs if a thief grabs multiple chests hell drop all the items he nabbed when you kill him, not just the most recent one

So what does the actual Thief class do that's unique this time around?

Whoever said this is like a saturday morning cartoon was right on. Though I did like it when I did an arena battle and the first character had a fancy introduction then Boucheron shows up and is just all "IT'S ME, BOUCHERON!!!!" Shez is better than Alear.

That's unfair, because Shez is the best main character there's ever been in Fire Emblem.

Are there any like level 15 skills this time, or am I okay to just start promoting as soon as I hit level 10? Aware there's second seals so hitting level caps shouldn't be a worry.

The only concern is money and exp are both kinda tight in this game*, so you shouldn't do it with no real plan. But no, there's no level 15 skills. *If you don't do skirmishes.

I like how Sigurd was like “I remember that one time me and my friends were all killed. It sucked rear end.”

Yeah, the main downside of promoting at 10 is that it will significantly slow your EXP growth. I think waiting a few extra levels is a good idea unless you really need that extra movement now but there's not much reason to wait longer than 15 or 16 if you have access to the Master Seals.

shez is the best character because they're also the gaiden game character, so they didn't need to be a complete springboard for everyone's gimmicks. alear is a good mc, DIVINE ONE withstanding, because they have their own poo poo going on while still playing the increasingly more incredulous straightman to everyone

From what I've read promoting doesn't slow down EXP gain and the EXP rate is just based on internal level (so a Level 10 would gain the same rate as a Level 10/1 promoted unit), so you do want to promote ASAP.

Okay wow, what a difference of like 3MT does to Framme. She went from healbot to actually a good option VS mages and archers. Is there any consensus on which units enjoy most which rings? For now I beat Chapter 6 and got Marth on Alear (Yunaka probably enjoys him too thanks to avo bonuses?), Celica on Celine (I guess any mage likes her), Sigurd on Louis to make him a murderball who distracts everyone and I guess Micaiah prefers to be on mounted units for more mov? No idea who to give THREE HOUSES to though, too many skills to check.

I've been happy as I always am in every FE giving the most mobile person the mobility buff. Chloe needs a little bit of help to be able to lunge with Sigurd, but if you give her a forge and angelic robe she's durable and powerful enough while being able to do sigurd tactics over flyer-only terrain

I think people are going to be discussing the ideal use for each emblem for a long time to come. There's a lot to be said about reinforcing existing niches vs adding to a units versatility, for instance. Hell, it's not exactly an idea *completely* without merit to toss Celica on someone like Louis and just use Warp Ragnarok as a "surprise, there's an armor knight in your backline" button.

Long-term the Three Houses Bracelet should go on someone who gets two of axes, lances or spears for the "+7 to damage when weapon matches current partner" bonus. In the short term it should go on someone who's staying right up front, because 1/3 of the time Dimitri lets you ignore the next ranged attack you take (including any debuffs it has, like Poison or Freeze) and Falling Star is a super longbow that also lets you completely ignore the next attack you take (and as an Engage skill it doesn't actually swap your weapon, so the user can counter melee right after without issues). Boucheron as a Warrior is probably the best long-term fit if he gets good levels, but it seems like there's a soft cap of 10 on the normal rings early on and Alear will hit level 10 with Marth about then, so putting it on Alear for a while isn't a bad idea. Etie's a good choice for Marth's ring if Alear's not using it, since IIRC there's the traditional mounted sword-bow promoted class and picking up the sword evasion and extra sword damage skills would be good for her. She's kind of a glass cannon.

Micaiah's knife proficiency: just because of the Sothe connection, or specifically a reference to that time she shanked Pelleas?

Also I've just been tossing Edelgard and pals on whichever member of my current group is at the lowest level to benefit from their 20% EXP growth bonus. They're versatile enough they can really go on anyone. Tiki is currently on "trying to salvage Alfred" duty since I want to use as many of the royals as possible.

blizzardvizard posted:The key was to give Sigurd to Louis and have him Override during that one turn 4 enemies are lined up in the corridor, thus blocking the thief I still had Sigurd on Alfred when I did that mission but I had him override through them like that while Celine+Celica warped in front of the hallway so the enemies were trapped in there

It feels like Etie keeps getting MVP on my maps as her Longbow gets stupid amounts of mileage. I’m even finding it hard to justify using Alcryst, who seems really good, because I’m just committing to the Etie train. Her speed is dire but I’m still getting good results.

It probably isn't gonna work forever, but I love love love how useful Warp Ragnarok is for utterly removing enemy thieves as a threat. No need to strategize a way through multiple enemies to catch up with them, just press A a few times and boom, dead thief. In a similar vein, the Obstruct staff might be one of my favorite new additions to FE. There's a lot of shenanigans you can pull with that thing to get around some map designs.
