Did you folks see the advanced class stats breakdown? https://serenesforest.net/2019/07/04/three-houses-advanced-classes-via-japanese-website/

Paladins have the same speed growths as generals (fortress in FE16), I can't remember them having that low speed in the previous games.

Paladins had pretty abysmal stats in RD, speed among them

Just going by pre and post timeskip designs this game seems really good. And personalities seem— for the most part— at least not one dimensional so I’m hyped. Being able to poach most units helps too.

I’m mostly a strong bases man but I want pretty much all of my friends to succeed.

Cyril has the same funny thing as Hayato did where changing his class immediately inflates his muscles to a size that doesn't suit his character gimmick at all.

yeah, you want to promote as soon as possible. the beginner and intermediate classes don't really have as many skills that are worth having, so feel free to move up as soon as you have the weapon ranks

the only one you really want is the Mage skill which is +6 Mag when you initiate the attack, and Vantage from Merc. everything else you can live without

What about Death Blow from Brigand.

i just started playing this, is there a FFT/TO-esque barracks where you can recruit non-unique characters or am i stuck with all these dang anime kids?

Shadow Dragon let you kill off your units and get generos named Lucer, Wymp, Auffle, etc. Doing this even got you extra chapters.

This game no.

Concrete durability numbers like HP, Def, and Res mean a hell of a lot more when you don’t just peace out when your HP hits 0. Iron man runs are cool too.

But whatever, there’s a casual/classic choice in this single player game and it doesn’t bother me one iota how someone else likes to play, I just know the way I want to.
