It's kinda weird. While there are a lot of characters who learn Physic if you take them into Faith, out of all the characters who are naturally on the path to learn Faith (And I mean like, Linhardt, Marianne, Manuela, Flayn, etc), only the three Primary Healers of the three houses (that being Linhardt, Marianne, and Mercedes) learn Physic. Flayn, Manuela, Yuri, Balthus, even Byleth if we count them, none of them are among the crowd that learns Physic. You know who does? Dorothea, Bernadetta, Ashe, Sylvain, Ingrid, Ignatz, Leonie, Shamir, and Hapi.

Including her shared voice actor character Shamir I'm mid on Dorothea overall, but she does have the most heartbreaking line in the entire game. If you recruit her and end up killing Ferdinand then talk with her after the battle.

Thinking “huh let’s try a magic mc this time” has been a terrible mistake for playing maddening for the first time. My other mistake has been gearing Anette and Mercedes toward becoming dark fliers thinking “I’m sick of playing around pass” and forgetting this means they get garbage battalions and no adjutants.

Magic Byleth can be ok, but they're usually better off going for physical classes. Dark Flier is a great class, but the lack of flying battalions that go well with it means it usually doesn't feel worth it to have more than one, MAYBE two. There are plenty of other good options for female mages though.

I’m sticking to the dark flier duo for now, it’s actually been pretty good so far despite giving up on the insane mage battalions. On the other hand I just made Lysithea into a bishop and she got 18 points worth of stats for it, 8 into defense alone. Seems legit.

If you can get Anna and Candace's battalion you'll be able to get them both decent ones at least! Wishing you luck with the mage air force.

Well I'm glad I kept the flying mage squad because I have no idea how you do Blue Lion Chapter 13 maddening with Mercedes and Annette on foot. Actually I have some idea because I looked up a video of it and it apparently involves stride / impregnable wall abuse with a flying Byleth. Happy I have the pay to win dlc that let me just fly Mercedes and Annette over to the rest of the units and then use canto to blow up enemies while staying out of trouble. It was still a hard map but much more doable that way.

I'm back on this again. Can someone please tell me what I was planning with Ferdinand. This is my fifth run so I'm not taking it seriously but I clearly had plans and haven't played in months. He's mastered Brigand, is level 20, has clearly been working on sword, riding and faith. Was I going for trickster? I thought so but then discovered that Petra is close to that, already has Thief and everything. Everyone else I can figure out (Valkyrie Lysithea is a monster). e: he already has lance C! Was it Holy Knight? why the hell does he have sword goals then? eating only apples fucked around with this message at 00:22 on Dec 19, 2023 |

I've been through this process several times and my advice is to just give up on trying to figure out what you were trying to do and instead just look at what he has and come up with a new cool idea lol With any luck it'll even be the same one and you'll be none the wiser!

You got Brigand for Death Blow. You got Sword so that you could do Trickster and then move into Holy Knight later.

Playing this for the first time and I'm always not really sure what I'm doing when building my units. I'm around level 13 and so far I've mostly just put points into weapons and everyone has followed the most obvious path I don't want to just follow some build guides, but are there any general tips on what to do/what NOT to do that might not be immediately obvious?

If you’re not on Maddening you can just go with the stuff students occasionally suggest themselves, at least one of those are their “canon” class you see them as post timeskip as NPCs on the other routes. It’s probably worth noting if you’re on Black Eagles and are using Hubert that Dark Knight is the only male class that actually makes dark magic better, which needs a riding/lance proficiency. Theres probably a bunch more I can’t think of, but it’s been years and years.

Dark Knight is also important for Hubert because otherwise he's lagging behind on movement compared to the rest of your team, and he doesn't have the range of Dorothea. He does also get Frozen Lance for Dark Knight. Linhardt also suffers from this to a degree but at least he can still sling Physic. I recruit Ferdinand every run but I don't think I've ever had an amazing Ferdie, he's mostly just been 'oh yeah, you're on a horse, great'.

I'm around level 13 and so far I've mostly just put points into weapons and everyone has followed the most obvious path What you're doing now is a good start, but here's a few tips: * Look at which of the advanced/master tier classes use a character's weapon of choice and pay attention to the other skill requirements they have. A lot of them will require a character to be trained in riding or flying or even another weapon type. * Even though some later classes require you to be trained in multiple weapon types, they usually only have a -faire skill (gives you +5 damage when you use a specific weapon type) for one so that's the one you should be using in that class. * All magic users want both Reason and Faith, at least to D rank in the latter to pick up a heal spell. As long as a class can cast magic they can use both types so there's no reason not to. * Every character wants to be trained in Authority. Even the ones who are bad at it. Even the ones who have personal skills that might suggest otherwise. * Most classes aren't worth mastering, it's generally better to move on to a higher tier class asap. The big exceptions are any one beginner tier class (Myrmidon, Soldier, Fighter, or Monk), Brigand for physical characters, Mage for magical characters, and Pegasus Knights for women. Don't feel like you have to veer a character completely out of their way into the latter three, but if you don't think it would be too much trouble then they are extremely worth it.

Dancer Ferdinand is one of the best dodge tanks in the game with his personal skill + Sword Avoid. But it's not super in line with his character so it's not recommended for a first run anyways.

If an advanced class doesn't have an obvious promotion in master tier, it's fine as an endpoint for your character. They are about equivalent power levels, but master classes are more specialized. Not every bishop needs to become a holy knight, for instance. Or maybe a better example is Assassin, no need to force your sword characters into Mortal Savant unless you really want to have one. (Not getting into class v class power comparisons, on submaddening you should run whatever classes you like best without worry.)

The class design is definitely an oddity. Half the Advanced classes are incremental steps to obvious upgrades in Master tier, and half of them are endgame-worthy capstones that can promote into hybrid sidegrades.

Zore posted:Eh Bishop kind of does want the master tier because goddamn is 4 move brutal. I personally prefer the bonus to healing over extra move, and patching them with the +move ring if absolutely necessary. My bishops are usually using physic and fortify if I run one anyway. TBH I don't run holy knight or bishop at all usually (unless it's Lindhardt and I don't have him in dark knight), I just have all my offensive mages also packing heal spells and some mixed supporters that can heal too. But if I'm going to run a dedicated healer it's gonna be a bishop. mycatscrimes fucked around with this message at 20:26 on Feb 3, 2024 |

I mean, there's a lot of ways for slow units to get around low movement in this game. Warp, Rescue, Stride battalion, dancing, Fetters of Dromi if you have DLC, march ring, range-increasing staves and abilities for mages, and positional combat arts like Draw Back, Reposition and Shove. I'm not suggesting that having high movement isn't important, but slower classes can keep up well enough if you don't have too many of them in your party. I generally prefer for Hubert to stay in Dark Bishop and just focus on high authority and magic, rather than waste lectures giving him a horse he's only going to use late in the second half of a relatively short campaign.
