Oh hey, I'm playing this now!

I don't know if they raised Lillina's growths or if she's just determined to solo the entire game, but she's maxed drat near every stat and is easily my MVP.

Shanna has a (deserved) bum rap, but the biggest perk of being a GBA Pegasus Knight is that, unless the RNG just actively hates you, they can at least function as a dodge tank

I am curious to see how your Lillina turns out. On my playthrough she maxed drat near everything, only falling a couple points short in defense and HP

I am always down for more knights, but I might be biased ever since a knight named Wallace stole my heart.

Also that extra move actually makes them viable in this mod. The creator did a good job making them all unique as possible, but I don't think deploying more than 2 would regularly be a good idea. I like versatility in my team

Agreed. The army has 2 missions, in order if importance.

2) Save the world if they get a minute

It's really hard to end up with a completely useless Shanna because even the worst GBA Pegasus Knight can usually dodge-tank but...seriously girl, you better get some Pledge and clean that bench because that'll probably be your new home soon

My favorite thing about supports is their existence implies that when someone isn't plot relevant or on the battlefield, they're just following the resident Lord in silence which makes the army seem like a cult.

And to be fair if I saw a completely silent group of 50 or so people I'd be far more terrified than if I saw a rowdy one

My favorite quirk in the GBA games is that a single blessed Pegasus Knight can pretty much solo the entire game

I still remember having a Florina in FE7 who snowballed so hard after several blessed levels that I started letting her handle tricky situations on her own. That was a fun run for sure.

I once had a Vanessa I'm still not entirely convinced wasn't Ephraim with a wig. It was the only time I sent her down the Wyvern path because she was determined to get big without suffering a scratch

Get Cath later. Chest keys exist for a reason. And I kinda like the idea that while Roy is doing all this Cath is having her own adventure and finds another legendary weapon

:confused: I like Geese fine, sometimes things just don't line up and that's OK. Bors and Barthe didn't get any levels either, it happens. Hell, Geese got more experience than both of them and also Roy, but he had to start from literally zero thanks to not getting a chance to do anything last time.

The thing about Gonzalez is also that he's relatively RNG-proof. Not quite as much as, say, Jafar, but close enough because of 3 reasons (unless PE changed anything)

1) He gets an insane Skill boost upon promotion
2) He promotes to a Berserker in a GBA game
3) His starting HP

The absolute worst case scenario for Gonzalez is he's a Berserker who misses 1/3 - 1/4 of the time and gets knocked sideways by magic, but criticals don't miss and he should be carrying nothing but Killer Axes by that point anyways

I'm reasonably certain that you have to roll a successful hit before a potential critical is considered. I could be wrong, but that's what I remember.

Oops. I haven't played these in years and never actually delved into the mechanics. Either way, anything that promotion boost doesn't fix a Secret Book or two will but really he'll still be more than usable without them. He's just even more murder-y with them

That Lugh isn't useless. He can do two damage. Twice. That's four damage.

That Sophia is starting off strong, though. She's actually showing promise. Kinda like a not-late Nino

Gonzalez is the exception to my "promote only at 20" rule. He's gonna slam into his HP, Strength, and Speed caps hard no matter what, and he REALLY wants that insane Skill boost he gets at promotion (although I don't know if they kept that in Project Ember).
