Now that I have this dating robot I can take it easy.
drat the backgrounds in cutscenes look like dog poo poo! Rest of game is good though. Most the characters seem like more or less normal people with quirks instead of massive idiots.

The optimal strat is to give your jacked mc crappy weapons so they don’t kill enemies and the rest of your scrubs can get free exp

Byleth has been strong but he's not like Chapter 1 Paladin strong for my squad. At least so far

Everyone went on about how great and epic and refreshing Fire Emblem Awakening was so I went and got it and all it did was convince me Intelligent Systems is Dead.

Does anybody know what the level cap is? Getting the class mastery skills before classing up seems to take a while.

yeah i'm really digging the characters, they feel like they have actual depth to them. like initially i hated felix for being a massive douchebag to everyone but i'm liking him more as i read his supports

Felix ftw. I started making him a swordmaster but there's not a single person in Blue Team who could wield a bow worth a drat so I decided to make him a assassin and he's unstoppable.

does anyone else try to hold back the mc/house lord characters in battle? if i push them too far they draw all the enemies' attacks and counterattack everyone into pieces and soak up the exp

its normal for the mcs to be stronger .. in fact if u make the mc the mvp in story missions it maxes everyones motivation out so its worth doing for story missions

my edelgard is literally unhittable though cos i made her a fortress warrior think. and her speed is so high she always hits twice for like 30+ ea. only a mage can make a tiny dent in her 50 hp. other strong characters are sylvain (horse lance), bernadetta (pure archer), shamir (basically almost as good as bernadetta, dorothea (dancer who hits insanely hard with magic).

im not even bothering to do that. you can go back and get them later anyway once youve passed the exams. ive mastered some classes but not all. theres no way im forcing edelgard to use a sword to get whatever OP poo poo lord gives her

A lot of the beginner class mastery gives push/pull which is god tier moves.

I have recruited four people just by giving them food and singing with them. Completely bypasses the requirements for recruitment. They just end up joining me.

Are all of the recruitable characters just the members of the other houses? I’m gonna miss the that lil feel you get when you go into a village and the music plays and you get a solid new character

I got through the cutting point at 2/22 (chapter 12) and ended up not recruting 3 students and 3 teachers... unless you are not supposed to recruit seteth, flayn, gilbert and the lightning sword teacher if you oppose the church

yeah they're all loyal to the church, you get them all if you don't stick with edelgard, but you lose her and hubert.

hubie rolled some real good magic stats in my first play through. I stole the dark seal or w/e from the death knight and made him a dark mage. I’m on like ch 7 I think? and he is whipping rear end right now

It feels necessary to do this if you want go recruit as many people as possible... kind of weird but it's fine

Dumping all stat boosters on one character has always been the right strategy tbh
