This should be good. Even in gameplay fates is pretty out there for fire emblem. Conquest gets very complicated very quickly

Hey, there's no agonizing over goddess icons. They get immediately pinned to Arthur's chin. No questions asked.

We'll see how this works on lunatic. When I did it on hard for an all wyvern gimmick run it was surprisingly effective and she turns into a goddamn monster even before promotion when that bolt axe shows up. Ironically the biggest downside to turning your staff bot into an axe murderer is that for a long while we're stuck with Jacob and consumables for healing.

Faillen Angel posted:honestly i think the best "pure" mage in gen 1 is hayato and that's real sad considering his whopping level 1 start in br For all of Odin's faults he can pair up with his daughter and vantage + nosferatu solo maps on hard, nerfs be damned. Never tried it on lunatic, so I dunno if it holds up there, but I'd say that puts him above hayato.

Cythereal posted:tl;dr (and please don't jump down my throats for this) there was an interview after the game's release where IntSys described Crimson Flower as the 'supreme ruler tyrant' route and that Silver Snow is the 'true empire' route, and that Edelgard was designed to be Byleth's dark mirror and arch-enemy. I will never understand the thoughts of the doofus who decided that the tank unit should be near incapable of being the first unit to reach the fight. I understand even less how nobody changed this over the course of more than a dozen entries in the series.

Along the way she ditched one of her kids and then had her kidnapped back when the tyrant kidnapped the other kid. See it's simple and totally makes sense! *I'm totally pulling this from what I remember from playing revelations once, years ago. It's probably not accurate and likely makes more sense than what intsys published*

Ah, I mostly just remembered that after 5 million supports of "no really, here's why it's technically not incest" they just randomly dropped that corrin and azura shared blood and let them boink without any of that.

SloppyDoughnuts posted:I just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly. Are you saying that ALL level ups FOREVER are determined when they first join you, or that at the start of each chapter all their potential level ups are calculated? Because if a unit's entire future viability is determined before you even get a chance to use them, then, well. That sucks rear end. Also, if that is the case, how does it work when you change class? Yup, it saves a string of the rolls, so changing class would still change their growths the roll is compared against. In theory you could class change around to get a stat point you would otherwise miss, but that's a cool 4k in cash per level up you do that for. It's not exactly sustainable.

Yeah, it changes that godawful feeling of getting a reset after a string of really good levels. It means your mistake just cost you time and not a super good unit.

Don't worry, I have a solution to your status booster dilemma. Give them to Azura. All of them I guess Camilla can get the magic boosters or something since azura can't use them. Or give them to azura anyway because I'd be funny, I'm not a cop. E: also, for all the crap fates deservedly gets about it's writing, Shura vs The Boots is hands down one of the best uses of a good/evil choice I have ever seen in games.

Unpopular opinion: I really like how crits work in fe and enjoy the way they force risk mitigation the same way miss chance does. If there is a chance for a crit, your plan needs to include a response to a crit. Yes, sometimes a unit will get an unlucky series of crits against enemies and get overwhelmed instead of leaving an enemy alive and blocking further attacks, but overall it adds much more to the game than the downsides detract from it.

You can actually send an army of 20/20s at end game if you abuse the scaling child chapters. Just wait until towards the end of the game and marathon a bunch of them and you'll get a ton of end game exp level kills.

Welcome to every Niles support midnight lasagna posted:About time these two hit their S support. It's surprisingly difficult to build supports with Azura, despite all the dancing she does... Fun facts for why: 1) dancing gives 2/6 of a point to dual attacks 1/2 2) the number of points you get is capped at 3 for the highest scoring partner a unit has, 2 for second place, 1 for 3rd and none for the rest So basically Azura levels up supports slower to begin with and can often have her support growth shoved aside entirely by combat units. Staves have a similar issue.

Eh, part of the big selling point was pick who your friends are and who you have to kill because you didn't pick them. They seemed to like the idea a lot considering they turned around and did it again in three houses So having to kill the other sides party is fine, what makes this so dumb is that 1) the map itself is bad somehow being ball bustingly hard to play normally and yet boring as sin. 2) the story does a big "WHYYY?!?!?!!" moment about the whole thing despite them pissing away the conceit literally almost everywhere else so the fact that you killed them is undermined. The same way it was when they did the same thing with scarlet.

ajkalan posted:By "it does not work on anybody else" midnight lasagna meant that the skill does not work on any enemies other than those in My Castle battles; it can still be passed down as normal. The skill's description mentions "Foreign Army" units, which sounds like it might mean whichever of Hoshido or Nohr you didn't choose, and would be infinitely more useful than what it actually does. The wording actually made me think of Valla, but a buff exclusively in the funsies online battles that don't kill anyone is even dumber than that.
