My Alfred is level 12, and is doing good in every stat except speed which clonking in at a solid 8 has made him the slowest man in the army not named Louis. Trying to decide if i want to try and save him with some speed wings or not.

Seems really, really useful for Maddening.

Harrow posted:Really the only earlier game units who feel fundamentally doomed to warm the bench are Boucheron and Lapis. Everyone else has a pretty strong chance to keep up if you keep using them. Boucheron just kinda gets outclassed early on, and Lapis has the unfortunate fate of being introduced precisely one chapter before a royal who does everything she does much better right off the bat. That's not to say Boucheron and Lapis are unusable, even on Maddening, just that using them is likely to be a conscious choice and not because they turned out so strong that they feel too valuable to replace. Lapis, at least, gets a personal skill that helps her be a little more dodgy and has no competition for going into hero, which lets her chain attacks double. Hero can get up to some shennanigans with the right support. Harrow posted:Speaking of mid-game recruits: Hortensia. I took one look at her stats, with her high Speed and Dex but pretty low Str and Mag for her level, and decided I'd rather use Ivy and Chloe as my fliers, but am I missing out? Does she have a niche I didn't notice right away? It's only been a handful of chapters so she's not so far behind that she couldn't catch up if I start using her. Maybe she's meant to be your dodge tank flier if Chloe didn't turn out? You shouldn't underestimate natural +1 staff range from her personal skill. That can be a big deal in a lot of situations.

Even though they're both swordsman, Diamand and Lapis are not that similar in roles especially when you try to factor in Emblems like Ike which is more suited to the former. It's Kagetsu that utterly shits on Lapis as a unit if you want to compare investment.

Looks like the developers accounted for dodge tank vs face tank matchups in the arena and will end a fight in a draw if it goes on for too many rounds

Really big fan of how incredibly weird the entire cast is sans Alear, and also how quickly they let everyone around immediately them know how weird they are. Yunaka owns because she's just pretending to be weird, but she is still also incredibly bad at letting it slip that she's not.

I finally got around to looking at character growth rates and Clann despite starting as a mage has a MAG growth of 10%, which explains a lot. Kinda wishing I'd seen some second seals by now, I can say that much.

Pants Donkey posted:Just as a heads-up, but if you have no one to attack you can switch weapons by going into items and equipping the weapon. It doesn’t even use up your action for that turn. The additional tip to this is that trading works the same way. You can put a unit next to one that has already moved, reorganize the weapon of choice to the top slot, and then exit out and still attack with the original unit. Note that once you trade you can't move again, so you'll have to commit. For example, Unit 1 moves next to an enemy and attacks with an iron lance. This leaves them open to ranged attacks with no counter, so Unit 2 moves behind Unit 1, trades to swap their iron lance with a javelin, and then does whatever (like attacking the original enemy unit with a hand axe).

I appreciate that all her crit quotes are some flavor of a low menacing "you hosed up" followed by "Zappity, I did it!" after the kill. Also speaking of Yunaka if you get her to Bond 5 with Ike the conversation is him going "Oooooh I get it you're an assassin, yeah I worked with a guy like that before, good dude" and Yunaka getting flustered about how she has no idea about this whole "assassin" thing.

The highlight of the game for me so far is chapter 8, where I was using Yunaka to shave the boss down so I could get EXP on someone else. I think the boss had a 40% hit, and Yunaka was at like 3% crit. Boss whacks her for 80% if her health, and on the clapback she does the "you loving idiot your life is mine" crit and then the chapter just ends. So funny and appropriate

What are you guys spending bond points on? I'm on chapter 8 and there are so many little systems/shops in place.

the best use seems to be levelling up emblem bonds in the arena, it's pretty cheap

Once you get Leif Emblem you can try gambling for Olwen's S Ring Otherwise using them to befriend the Emblems in Arena and unlock those sweet skills seems to be the standard.

Yeah the only real use for bond points is leveling up your emblems and engraving at the forge. Don't spend any points leveling up those noname bond rings. Just make sure you have enough to equip your roster with them.

Why does Zelkov talk like *this*? Adding *emphasis* to seemingly *random* words certainly was a decision. (I'm assuming that in japanese the words in question were written with katakana instead of kanji, which is something that... really doesn't translate well to english at all.)

Out of a bunch of odd character quirks his has got to be the weirdest for me because it's so slight and, just, what is going on with you my guy. I haven't seen anyone comment on it yet so it just makes it all the more strange.

lih posted:the bond ring gacha is so weirdly expensive for what it is Yeah I don't quite get that one. Like yeah everybody who doesn't have a full emblem ring wants a bong ring so they can get some SP but the stat buffs are extremely minor even on S rank rings. Also melding rings gets hugely expensive for no reason. Honestly the whole ring gatcha mechanic feels kinda half baked.

I think Boucheron is in a weird spot because there’s such a dearth of axe users. You have Vander, who is destined for the bench after the early game, and Anna, who really needs to Second Seal out of axe fighter to get rolling. Axe engages aren’t really a thing for like a third of the game either. You could use Aymr, but it’s a situational weapon at best, so you have to wait until Chapter 9 for Leif’s Killer Axe. All this kept me using Bouche when I would’ve benched him and he’s an A lister now.

Boucheran's niche is that he's fast and has high Bld growth, so he's probably one of the only characters that can double with heavy-as-poo poo Silver Axes. And Chain Attack IIRC is based off the HP, so he's a good supporter in general.

What would be a good class to reclass Rosado into? I reclassed Jade into a Wyvern Knight with the exact same weapons as him and I don’t want them competing over the same niche.

Boucheran feels like an ode to Nolan: an early game axe fighter with a surprisingly high spd growth who can do a little tanking on the side in a pinch if needed.
