Protip for anyone unaware: if you scan a fire emblem amiibo*, you don't get that character's outfit, you instead get a daily ticket that can be used to purchase any of the past lords outfits, as well as one for songs. Lord outfits can only be worn by the Royal Characters™ but you only need to buy them once. "...Well, ONE of us is going to have to change." *or, you know, a spoofed NFC tag because amiibo prices are annoying at the best of times

i already liked framme so the fact that she's determined to apparently get almost every stat up across the board nearly every level-up is making her a fantastic character edit: Hellioning posted:On one hand, a lot of the Alear worship is annoying Blaziken386 fucked around with this message at 14:40 on Jan 22, 2023 |

the thread keeps talking about reclassing anna into mage because of her ridiculous growth rate, so i just have to ask can you get a second seal earlier than chapter 13? because that seems like. a long time to wait.

Harrow posted:Something I really hope they keep in future games is the unit type system, the types like Mystical or Backup or Covert. They do a really good job of giving classes strong identities and are also an elegant way to make classes like Sage stay relevant when Mage Knight or the couple flying mages you get are an option. also i love that the designated healer in this game is also the dedicated "punch the poo poo out of things" button. framme was my healer who occasionally killed people who weren't wearing armor. then i got lyn's ring and she became the world's strongest kung-fu master who will occasionally begrudgingly heals people

avoraciopoctules posted:I've been taking my time with Fire Emblem: Engage, but I'm enjoying it so far. On Hard/Casual, I started having a really good time with the tactical gameplay around chapter 5. Just finished the first paralogue and started my first skirmish, only to discover that I was probably going to have to actually think a bit about my unit placement, since I REALLY should have put a sword unit and a mage on the second placement group.

okay i am now genuinely mad I scanned in two fire emblem amiibo the other day, and each one gave me an outfit and music ticket. "this is neat" i thought, "it's annoying that they would lock this mechanic behind amiibo in the first place, but that just makes it a daily thing. I'll just unlock Micaiah and Celica's outfits for now, and unlock the other ones when they become available." HAHA. FUNNY JOKE. because I scanned in those same amiibo tags today, and I got: 1x relay ticket, 1x potato you get one outfit ticket per amiibo. want to unlock all the outfits? gently caress you, you need all twelve.

i just used Lyn's shadow clone jutsu skill and i cant believe i didn't realize it gives your clones the Mani Katti  the dodge and critical rates were already disgusting on Framme, I can't imagine what kind of nonsense Yunaka could get up to with this thing. Sadly, it seems you can't move them around after the fact, but it's great for enemy phase silliness.

i just got to meet fogado and wow this game really is Awakening 2: This Time It's Good same basic character conceit, but with a couple of tiny tweaks and now it works. Chrom is the Crown Prince and is supposed to be responsible, yet he's off galivanting around with his increasingly frustrated retainer. He's not even mobilized to deal with the threat of the Risen, he learns about them the same time you do. Robin gets brought to meet the queen because, uh. plot. Fogado is just a Prince, and second sons are generally given carte blanch to just do whatever the gently caress, even before Solm's more free-spirited nature is taken into account. He's out protecting the border because there be monsters about and, as shown by Alear & the rest of the cast, it's really easy for people to get lost in the wastelands and die. Alear is brought to meet the queen because she introduces herself to everyone with "hello, I'm dragon jesus : )", and is therefore Important. Which makes it funny when the guy you assume to be the Captain of the Guard strolls up to the palace and goes "heeeeey guys, I'm hoome~!" Just tiny tweaks and suddenly it's fun and good!!

Why does Zelkov talk like *this*? Adding *emphasis* to seemingly *random* words certainly was a decision. (I'm assuming that in japanese the words in question were written with katakana instead of kanji, which is something that... really doesn't translate well to english at all.)

ike having an actually good voice actor now is once again making me wish for a hyptothetical FE9&10 HD remake that bundles both games together you know you want to do it, intsys. you put him and micaiah in the game (and apparently have soren planned as DLC), you clearly like the tellius cast as much as anyone else

fun fact i learned in chapter 16 - is your Ike ring on a unit who can't quite reach the enemy due to those pesky tiles that restrict movement? Worry not! Great Aether can be activated right before you have an ally warp you into enemy territory!! anyways i know Panette is the current favorite for Ike because lol wrath, but I'm having a lot of fun sticking him on Diamant and letting the guy smash the poo poo out of the enemy. He's a walking tank of doom.

Barreft posted:Diamant hasn't left my party since I got him. he's a goddamn monster along with Kagetsu and Yunaka   he's 5 points off of louis' defense score... but not only do Ike's weapons all have their own innate +def buffs, but he also gets +def skills AND the buff from great aether. Combine that with Sol healing him (and, with a Crit weapon + Wrath, Sol basically always heals him to full health) and he cannot loving die. oh, and in contrast to Louis, he has 22 speed and 6 move. the only thing louis has over him is the fact that he can get broken by enemy attacks. But considering the enemy loves to try and break you, even if they only do 1 damage doing it, that might be a good thing?
