From a while back but,MythosDragon posted:It makes plenty of sense. This game is nearly 30 years old originally, and they didnt really put any effort into cleaning, improving, or expanding it up beyond the graphics. They actually DID improve a fair number of things, its just mostly mechanical and little to do with map design and plot. Off the top of my head: Stat cap formerly 20s across the board, now has class caps. Hunters, knights, and pirates can promote. On that note berserkers(and horse bowmen?) exist Weapon ranks formerly governered by a stat that rolled on level up. Bonuses at weapon ranks c-a (previous games only gave a crit boost for s) Added weapon triangle First game to allow marking unit ranges on the map. Covoy is built into marth and not a building. First game with Reclassing Added forging Save points. The wing spear? And im probably missing some. Sadly none of these can fix the boring late game maps and lack of personality to the characters. I could definitely buy that weird executive oversight theory with how much the overhauled the game mechanicaly while leaving other areas almost untouched in their ancient, dated state.

Miacis posted:but I kinda miss the FEGBA supports giving strong, affinity-based bonuses that don't require glueing two characters together. Once they've supported sure, but you have to glue them together for an eternity to get those bonuses in the first place. I think PoR did supports best in that you unlocked them just by using the two units on the same map.

Ah, using the devil axe. That takes me back to Tena Crane's lp. They're such fun weapons in the dwarf fortress sense of the word.

SonicRulez posted:Dracoknights are probably my favorite unit. Movement tends to be super important the later you get in Fire Emblem games. Half my team in Awakening was on some kind of flying beast. It's a shame you can't make Draug one, the slow movement hampers Knights in my games. Except Oswin. I loved pair up when they introduced it because I could suddenly get their slow buts to the front quickly and easily and knights were suddenly super cool.

Off the top of my head you can empty level in: All the gba games Awakening(although you have to cap drat near everything to have good odds of seeing one) The ds games Path of radiance (maybe) And you cant in the original two games(hardware limitations cause the game to pick from 1 of 10 or so static level ups) and fe10(guarantees at least 1 stat up) Dunno about the rest of them

Truly they are works of art. You can just feel marth's dog like disdain for having a hat placed on him and being forced to take a picture

chiasaur11 posted:I'd say the story is good about three quarters of the way in (if a bit rough to keep track of) and then it denigrates into "Look! Demons!" Same. I'd say fe9 has a better plot than fft because it doesnt piss all over itself halfway through and retroactively ruin something that had been amazing. Well until radiant dawn anyway.

Camel Pimp posted:Isn't there a patch out there that will unlock the gaidens without the stupid "murder all your own units" condition? I sure as poo poo won't judge if you use it. Its a part of the game that should be shown. Especially since Tena Crane didn't archive his adventures with it. Like if hes not having fun and burning out from the extra load it's the obvious thing to cut, but mass murdering dudes in fire emblem is strangely cathartic.

Camel Pimp posted:It's especially egregious that it's on Navarre, a character carried by skill and speed. The class itself? It's got ridiculous bases and anyone you reclass into it will double for days and never miss. The people that start as them? Oh god did they. Still perfectly usable as they come, but reclassing them will gut the character. FoolyCharged fucked around with this message at 02:57 on Feb 3, 2017 |

We gave Lenae a chance. There exists only one real call here. Have cord solo the next chapter and promote him to become our healer. I guess Maria is technically an option if you don't believe in cord

You think too small. The theif ballista does not attack, it merely fires an endless wave of thieves across the map at key targets and THEN destroy the towns, clerics, lords, etc.

RydogZeta posted:I found that northeast save point very handy when beating this level manly to test who will survive a ballista bolt. Linde isn’t too hard to level up on normal since nobody seems to have good res. Caeda’s max speed is nice but that 5 strength could be a problem soon. At least with clerics not gaining magic could be offset by higher tier staves.

Camel Pimp posted:I wanna say this map caused me to have a mini-heart attack when I first played it, because I wasn't sure if the items thieves steal in this game up and disappear into the ether (they did in the original). Yeah, thankfully they don't (and I'm pretty sure in the original the thieves aren't in the treasure room to start off with.) Even if they didn't you have enough warp staffs to commando mission the thieves turn 1

EclecticTastes posted:They also won't generate as any class that's had its reclass limit maxed out, but you'd be hard-pressed to manage that for most classes, given that you need to murder your whole army just to unlock these guys. Berserkers are capped at two and the only class that is likely to encounter this, another sign that intsys hates the best class

I think they've had that for a while. I know it was in games as early as Path of Radiance, it might have gotten axed since though, I've never used it.
