Playing Golden Deer to start. Lorentz sucks. His speed and defense are trash. He's going to get dropped hard for Cyril. Ignatz is a mysterious monster. I'm on Chapter 5 I think. End of the 10th month. Somehow he excels with bows, swords and reason. He's the only student I've managed to put into 2 intermediate classes and next month he's going to unlock archer in case I need the extra range. Claude is a loving monster, as is Lysithea. If Raphael isn't punching things, you're doing it wrong.

Harrow posted:Yep. Every type of monster drops a different kind of material when you break their armor. Demonic beasts drop Umbral Steel, giant wolves drop Wootz Steel, and giant birds drop Mythril. Those are the most common ones. There's also (possible spoiler?) Agarthium, which comes from the robotic enemies you occasionally encounter in battles with Those Who Slither in the Dark. You also get the spoilered bit from the snakes in the desert. And there's venom stone if you really want to poison enemies. I've only ever saw it drop in Marianne's Paralogue.

Where are people getting that Claude isn't Almyran Royalty? He's literally the son of Nader, the Almyran king. Hell, his paired ending with Lorenz has him abdicating rule of the Alliance and returning years later as the King of Almyra to negotiate a peace treaty.

Harrow posted:There was a brief flash of people believing that Nader is Claude's father and Judith his mother but there's nothing in the game to support that. It's clear they're both mentor figures though. There's pretty strong evidence for the former, but the latter is way out of left field.

Conquest only became unfair towards the late game. 8, 9, 11, 12 and a few others absolutely are breathers compared to many others. Even Ninja Cave is only a bitch the first time through. Kitsune Lair, Eternal Stair and Ballistic Taco can gently caress right off though.

The problem with axe girl Annette is that her strength is anemic and she doesn't gain enough speed to offset the more useful axes. I did Wyvern Annette with Bolt Axe and Crusher in my Blue Lions run and she was by far my slowest unit in end game. She also lacked defense and health so I ended up not using her much compared to Sylvain, Dedue and Seteth.

Flayn makes a perfectly fine Pegasus once you raise her sword and lance skills. She learns Frozen Lance and one of the magic based sword arts. Pair those with a Levin Sword/Killer Lance and she can dish out some respectable damage. My favorite game is Fates: Conquest, and one of the reasons for that is that every character has a secondary class which is no less viable than their primary. Three Houses gives you these same insane builds to the extreme. Marianne can be a healer, a black mage, on a horse, flying or a scary sword girl and all are useful and useable for the whole game, just some builds are easier than others. And the same is true for every other unit.

Maid Effie is perfectly viable, especially if you grab Wary Fighter. It's a gimmick build, and a fun one and it works. Kind of like Swordmaster Marianne. Her best class is Gremory just like every female mage but she works fine as a Swordmaster or Pegasus or even a Paladin. The physical classes aren't as strong, but outside of Maddening she'll be able to contribute through endgame.

Zulily Zoetrope posted:Marianne’s best class is Holy Knight, actually. It may be statistically worse than Gremory (most classes are), but she gets to ride a horse, and will politely ask you to train her as one once you get to the appropriate levels. My first run was a blind Golden Deer run. Marianne was a Holy Knight, Dark Knight and Gremory. She performed best as a Dark Knight but Holy just looked better on her.

VC1 and 4 are very good games. 4 has more QoL improvements but the gameplay is 95% the same between them and more properties should do fantasy WWII. VC3 is Japan only but there are fan translations floating around and it's a PSP game.

Thinking of doing a new Golden Deer run. It was my first run so Claude is the only Lord without maxed supports. Thinking about Dancer Lorenz, Dark Mage Ignatz, Mortal Savant Lysithia and Pegasus Marianne. Could be fun times. I'm really leaning into Hard Classic, no Renown or Divine Pulse just to see how well I do.

The good thing about Lord is all three lords have strengths in Swords and Reason so it's easy to qualify for if you want to.

Rimusutera posted:Assassin has thief move built in. Not terrain res. They should have made that a named skill. As for Holy Knights, I've used one in every run. My favorite is still Marianne from my first run who was a Holy Knight, a Dark Knight and a Gremory but stayed HK for endgame because it looked cool. Because my criteria for a good class in FE is if it looks good.

I enjoyed my time with 3 Houses. I'm sure I'll play it again but I put over 200 hours into it and haven't done the DLC or Silver Snow yet but right now I'm burnt out on it. I vastly prefer the class system in Fates. Everyone gets 2 classes and you can marry someone and be besties with someone to get 2 more. Also I can play the game in less than a dozen hours giving me much more replay value.

The Deer turn out great if you base their final class around their hidden talents. So Swordmaster Lysithea, Falcon Marianne, Mage Ignatz ect. Lorenz actually performs decently whether as a mage or a fighter but he's poo poo in mixed classes. Ignatz has heavier offensive magics but usually has the speed to double with them.

Lysithea makes a great Swordmaster even without pumping her magic. She can grab the Thunderbrand right away and once her rank gets up she can use a Killer and Levin sword and her Soulblade art combined with effective weapons delete any difficult opponents. Marianne also makes a great Paladin/Falcon Knight with Soulblade and Frozen Lance.

Bearhugg posted:Great advice. With COVID, Three Houses might warrant another playthrough. Give it a shot. The Deer are probably the most versatile class so they're easy to mess with. I mean, work on getting Lysithea a bow rank and give her a Magic Bow + as an Assassin and she'd probably wreck everything. If you have the DLC classes that opens up even more options. Also if you haven't done it, I think Ferdinand and Linhardt share Paralogues with 2 of the Deer students. I keep meaning to get to these things myself but I'm burnt out on 3 Houses.

Bongo Bill posted:I interpreted that as her identifying with the Seiros illustration. Same really. She is the straightest woman in Fodlan but she also wants women to be presented as more than the traditional nurturing figures. I think it's just a mess because the setting wants to have the historical misogynistic medieval view of women need to be properly married and women can be strong martial figures and those 2 things simply don't work together. Especially since Ingrid's whole deal is she's expected to marry up to increase the wealth and prestige of her family and she doesn't want to do that because she's still in mourning for Glenn.

night slime posted:Is there a non-spoiler explanation why Jeritza was added like that, as DLC? Seems weird, like the game was behind schedule. The game was behind schedule, in part because of firing Christina Vee shortly before release. Edit: On second thought, the voice direction probably had nothing to do with it but it seems like it was known on release the game was rushed though I couldn't say why now.

Eimi posted:I definitely think it's missing a difficulty between hard and maddening and would be the better for it. Maddening just has some difficulty curves (that are totally surmountable mind you) that just require playing in a way I don't think is that cool or fun. That's true of every game with a Lunatic or similar mode though. The only one I enjoy playing is Lunatic Birthright because it avoids many of the pitfalls of other Lunatic modes, but even then it's still piss easy.
