A lot of the negative aspects of the reviews are the same things everyone else complained about: Bad maps, long tedious maps, lack of variety in maps, and the dungeon crawling is really underutilized. Basically anything Echoes is carrying its weight, anything OG Gaiden is what's bringing it down.

Avalerion posted:No weapon triangle, guess that means you just whack away with the strongest thing you got? There's no axes at all, so terrain is king because stuff like Tombs give +60 avoid (but magic negates terrain). And things generally die much, much slower. In most other FE games, you end a fight at 2 fights maximum. Echoes is more like 2 minimum outside of specific situations.

I would heavily recommend SoV if being different is the thing you're looking for and you never played Gaiden before.

If you make Silque the only healer, how exactly does she replenish her health? Nosferatu prayer?

I'm confused, is Mae and Boey really unrequited or was this changed from the japanese?

Seems like the Cipher dlc characters will have conversations with themselves and some bonus items. Still no clarification if it's an Anna thing or not.

marshmallow creep posted:Do Kliff and Faye have supports with anyone on Celica's side? Is there a good reason to have her get them besides doing it for the sake of it? I mean, she apparently has her share of peg knights and mercenaries, so I guess they could be her cavaliers? No, supports in general is really tiny compared to most games.

More details on the Cipher DLC: https://serenesforest.net/2017/05/18/echoes-details-cipher-collab-character-introductions/ They're battle maps, you get two characters per DLC (4 bucks each, 8 total), and they have supports+Base conversations with each other. Also exclusive spells and items.

Who did you give the +3 speed to?
|
# ¿ May 19, 2017 19:15 |
|
My Kliff got +3 speed via levels, so I felt like that was a waste. I ended up giving it to Tobin because him only hitting once is really mediocre. These weapon skills seem stupidly cheap for how powerful they are. Straight up +5 might and 10 hit for 1 HP? Why not.

My Faye is currently a Nosferatu tank with the leather shield

The Cipher DLC could be good, but in general just wait for a sale. These new deliverance guys kinda suck. I guess Python is okay if you never have a sniper?

Booky posted:I'm eyeing the Cipher DLC, tbh. Promotion in Echoes/Gaiden is that units automatically get brought up to the base level I.E. if Lukas has 6 defense when he promotes to Knight, he automatically gets raised to the Knight's base defense which is higher. The exception apparently is Alm/Celica.

Booky posted:Ohhh, ok. Thanks for the help, everyone! They still get the indicator just like villagers I.E. I got Tobin the "He is now ready to be a sniper!" message. Also there's a marker over their name or something as a constant reminder.

# ¿ May 19, 2017 21:03 |

I regret not giving the +3 speed to Faye because with the leather shield, she's my 2nd best defensive unit. It's basically Awakening again.

Kilff is too useful because he's the only one hitting 95% while everyone else is struggling to hit 70.

# ¿ May 19, 2017 22:32 |

I kinda feel like the levin sword is wasted on Alm since it's flat damage and he has ridiculously high strength. But my only other sword user is Tobin who gets free attacks with the iron sword.

Some of the recruits require backtracking. I've seen a lot of people miss out on the whitewings.

Man, they do not want you to backtrack in chapter 3. Got annihilated by Gargoyles when I wanted to promote Python and Clive when I tried to go to the Thieve's cave. They double everyone and even Alm could barely scratch them.

The Dragons double everyone on Hard, otherwise I would just box it in without problem.

I think I need to start grinding. Midway through chapter 3 is kicking my rear end because if there's 3+ gargoyles, I'm dead.

Zore posted:I have Kliff (mage), Alm and Grey (Levin sword) who can all one round them, 2 knight who can completely tank them and most of the rest of the team can chip one down. If Faye gets a little lucky she can one round them as well with Nosferatu. They only have 10 speed, right? Are you playing on normal, because the gargoyles range from 12-15 speed. My fastest unit is Clair as a Falco Knight at 14 speed

Zore posted:Im playing on Hard, but I haven't hit that tier of gargoyle yet I guess. Im in chapter 3 but I've mostly done Celica's stuff. Yeah my kliff has 9 speed. Alm has 10. Gray is my fastest at 16 but currently at 13 because he's got the lightning sword.

Turns out there's an auto-level fountain at the end of this dungeon. I leveled Kliff, Faye, and Seliph to promotion and now Gargoyles aren't a problem. My units must godawful though if it weren't for Gaiden's promotion system.

Zore posted:The worst part of this game is how tedious the random encounters are, holy poo poo. Especially the ones that spawn on the overworld, they're just the same goddamn thing over and over. Eh, if the game didn't have extra EXP after every battle and skill learning, I would be more annoyed. Extra Tasty posted:I would love if Python could hit something. I think that would be cool and good. Python seems to be by far the worst unit on the team. He's slow, inaccurate, and generally doesn't have the stats to survive hits partly because he gets doubled by everything.
