My husband and I are gonna play together, so we'll probably stick to Normal for the first route since he's somewhat of a beginner. We prefer Casual mode just to save ourselves some time, since both of us would want to reset to keep everyone alive anyway, but because of the Divine Pulse helping alleviate that, we may give Classic a try. On the second/third routes, we'll go for the harder difficulties.

My husband should be buying the special edition for me as a birthday present... My birthday is two days before release, so if he forgot I'll just preload.
-
I don’t own any fire emblem amiibos but if I did I’d probably want the Celica amiibo just to hear With Mila’s Divine Protection every time I’m grinding.
-
I’m interested in Catherine or Shamir for M!Byleth and Seteth or Yeritz for F!Byleth.
I probably won’t go after the students but if I did my choices would be:
Black Eagles: Caspar and Petra
Blue Lions: Felix and Mercedes
Golden Deer: Claude and Leonie

Byleth is just so tired of teaching they take a 5 year power nap.

Tbh I’m liking him more than I thought. I imagined just a snobby posh person from his brief line of dialogue with Caspar in the footage we saw, but him being mostly lazy unless when it comes to something he’s passionate about is a big mood. I’d like to see more of their friendship.

Sorry for the lack of updates, but I'm getting married in six days so I've been understandably busy. Also Chapter 4... Chapter 4 took a couple of hours due to several resets. They kind of blend together. I just saved the screenshots from the successful attempt, but even that had some bad luck.
SpoilerSo Chapter 3 was pretty straight-forward. I moved Neimi up to recruit Colm and had her damage the wall on the way. That's all she did this battle and you could argue I shouldn't have even used her for the wall damage but I didn't see the harm in it.
Then I broke the wall with Gilliam so Eirika could go in and fight.
She got an okay level up from killing him. More skill means more crits hopefully.
Then I picked up Colm who will hopefully be useful not only as a theif but in combat as well. I could solo the game with my Eirika, but I'd rather not.
He can deal with the guy up top while also pilfering the chests. Not like I need anything that's inside them but hey, free stuff is free stuff.
Eirika unlocks the door and the bandit suicides into her. Gilliam takes down the one in the corner after a couple of rounds.
He also takes out the archer that swoops in afterwards and gets himself a good level up.
Colm finally takes out the bandit and levels up for the first time.
oof
Fed a kill to Gilliam, he needs the experience more than Eirika.
Meanwhile Moulder does some chip healing. Maybe someday he'll get his first level up.
Then I fed Colm a kill too because he's gonna need a lot of level ups if he's gonna keep up.
Bazba was an easy kill for Eirika. She get's another Strength growth to show off.
Now the game really begins.
This might be a controversial decision, but I ended up bringing along Vanessa to recruit Lute, even though she technically isn't necessary. I did about three attempts of the map trying to do it without Vanessa's help, and it's incredibly difficult to keep 4 units alive (with one of them unable to defend himself) on this map, and still make progress towards Lute. You get swarmed so incredibly quickly because of the sheer amount of monsters. Both she and Artur were unequipped, and literally the only thing she did was fly to the village to get Lute, then stay on the village so she was out of the fight. Even with Vanessa I still had to reset once, so this chapter was just a huge pain in the ass.
Anyway, onto the successful attempt, aka Attempt #5.
I brought Eirika down to fight the monster by the tree, though I didn't really have to. That was sort of habitual from when I would send Eirika down to recruit Lute, but Eirika is fast enough (or should I say the monsters are slow enough) that she can double with the Steel Sword so she can take it out in one round.
Then I position everyone so they're ready to tank/dodge the first wave of attacks, which go without incident.
Bringing Vanessa down, I can pick up Lute early instead of having to spend 5 or 6 turns getting to her while everyone is surrounded.
Colm gets a level up and gets a point in Strength, thank god. However, you can see that even at a 34% hit rate, the Monsters are still managing to hit him. Monsters hitting at low hit rates were the biggest killer in this chapter...
Moulder finally gets a level up, and it's another 1 pointer, but at least he got it in the most important stat.
Gilliam fights a monster in the mountains while Eirika heads straight for the closest Evil Eye. Those fuckers were the harbinger of death in this map.
oof how many 1 point levels are we gonna get today
Meanwhile Artur does the only thing he can do at the moment which is dodge-tank.
After Enemy phase we get a brief peek at the last unit we drafted, but alas, he won't be joining us for a long, long time.
Skipping ahead a bit, everyone who can is trying to take down the monsters, but it doesn't take long for them to close in around the group. Moulder heals Artur for some exp and also because he was still getting hit frequently.
Eirika takes out another Evil Eye even though doing so exposes Moulder because those eyes are such a problem.
Gilliam gets a nice level up.
Three characters got unlucky with dodges but still had enough HP to live.
Lute got her first level up, and she got Magic so that's really all that matters right?
Artur fails to dodge-tank and dies, but since I'm not using him, it's not reset worthy. I'll forever remember his sacrifice.
Gilliam and Eirika put in work while everyone else heals up.
The following turns were more of the same and pretty boring to describe so I'll just put in the highlights.
Colm leveled up and also got a weapon level.
Gilliam can actually double some of the enemies which is something I never expect to see.
Moulder lives on 1.
ANOTHER 1 point level up. What really sucks is that I got some really good level ups in my failed attempts that just went down the drain. At least it's Strength.
At least Eirika makes up for it with a nearly perfect level.
Gilliam and Lute get a level too.
I feed the boss kill to Colm and he gets a good level out of it to redeem himself.
Thank god it's over, I never want to see another monster again. (When I do fight them again, I'll be in better shape.)

This is on the Japanese side of things, but I’m hoping for Tomokazu Sugita to do another role. He voices Chrom, which is such a big role they might not want to cast him as a major character again. However, I feel he’s at his best playing a comedic or villain role, and since he already voiced a comedic side character with Oliver, I think it would be great to hear him as a maniacal Fire Emblem villain.
-
I think you could argue Mercedes isn’t a true commoner since she did come from nobility originally. We don’t know her full story yet, but maybe her family moved because of a political situation but otherwise are still rich and noble?
-
I don’t get where people are coming from saying Lysithea is young looking tbh. Like she doesn’t look any more young than the rest of the cast, she’s just flat. I can easily argue that a ton of the roster “look young” but I don’t think any of them are gonna be like Child Prodigies where they’re significantly underage.
-
Like I said before, there’s gonna be some fake stuff even in credible leaks so I’m definitely not gonna trust in everything she said, so once the game comes out we can see what was real and what was a red herring.
And also Scarlet isn’t “locked behind DLC” she’s in Birthright and gets to live in that one. It sucks she dies in Revelations too but I just sort of think of her as a Birthright exclusive unit.
-
Oh okay, I misunderstood the rules of what undrafted units are allowed/not allowed to do, so that's a relief. I can save my money for things that actually matter.
EDIT: this post was gonna have my update in it but I accidentally posted it too soon lol
EDIT 2: I'll try not to clog this up with too many screenshots since it's just the first couple of chapters which are not too exciting.
I took over 100 screenshots which is way too many.SpoilerEven though Seth is technically usable until Chapter 4, I did my best to give him as little to do as possible.
Eirika crit on her very first attack which was a good omen for things to come because this Eirika is gonna carry me.
She didn't crit on her second attack so she got hurt, but I just healed her up and stuck her on a forest tile.
Easy prologue is easy.
I missed the first level up because I hadn't figured out how to bind the screenshot function to my gamepad until after the prologue. But it was a pretty good level up.
The first part of Chapter 1 was more of the same with moving Seth out of enemy range and putting Eirika on forest tiles in their range, so she got all the kills.
Second level up wasn't great but I can't complain because she's about to get a lot of levels in the span of a couple chapters.
Also, my first non-free actual drafted unit shows up! Gilliam was good in my last playthrough so hopefully he can be good in this one too. Though my last playthrough also had a cursed Eirika that never got Strength levels...
I use Gilliam to deal with this soldier up here, and I get Franz to run away out of range.
I decided to play a bit aggressive instead of playing it safe but it managed to work out.
She lived on exactly 1 HP after being attacked by both Soldiers which I would like to say is because I carefully calculated it but in reality I was just being reckless. I proceed to play it much safer after this.
aka running into the forest and popping a vulnaryOh and she got a point in Speed which is always good.
When the reinforcements showed up I moved Eirika and Gilliam down to meet them and popped another Vulnary because Eirika had taken more damage.
I didn't expect all of them would target Eirika but they did and Gilliam missed out on the experience points. Oh well.
ive never really looked into how the ai works in these games im a casualAnother good level up for Eirika. She's gonna be the MVP I can tell.
I let Gilliam soften Breguet up just a little bit but he just healed the damage off so it didn't accomplish anything. Not like it mattered though since Eirika did 11 x2.
After that Chapter, I did some item management. Traded everything my drafted units could use and then stored the rest.
For Chapter 2, I got my next drafted unit, Moulder. He's not super exciting since he's a staff bot, but since I expect Gilliam to tank a lot of hits, Moulder is useful to have.
I use my mounted units to visit the villages and pick up Ross so he doesn't get murdered. I didn't draft Ross or Garcia so it doesn't really matter to me if they die, but hey I can sell their items if they're alive. Afterwards I use their bodies as meat shields to help protect Moulder from being exposed.
This chapter is pretty boring since I'm mostly just slowly taking down the Cutthroats one at a time with Eirika doing most of the work and Gilliam occasionally contributing. Even using the Slim Lance his hit rate against the enemy wasn't too great.
Gilliam's first level up is unimpressive, while Eirika is RNG blessed.
Bone had just enough HP that he would barely survive Eirika's attacks so I got Gilliam so do some chip damage and she took him out. And got another Level Up.
After the Chapter ended I sold some stuff and loaded up Moulder with some healing juice. Stay hydrated, folks.
To Be Continued...

Somehow I knew I’d get stuck with the worst character in the game but hey, maybe he’ll be worth the 9980 gold I’m gonna pay for him? Rennac please prove your worth.
-
I’ll get Innes and Syrene. @Lunarly

To be honest I don’t mind if the cast is relatively small as long as there’s still a decent amount of units to deploy if you want to do an iron man run, even if it’s just kind of generic units. A smaller cast means that they can spend more time developing that cast rather than spread the writing too thin so the characters end up feeling shallow. Of course that’s not guaranteed to happen. It’s possible to have a small cast that feels shallow and a large cast where all of there characters have depth, but I feel like you’re more likely to have depth with a more contained, interwoven cast of characters.
(Also I never do iron man runs because I get sad if anyone dies so it would be nice to be able to use everyone and not bench half of the army just from lack of space.)
-
Maybe they realize people are reading the file names so they don’t want people to read into them too much?
Anyway, the fact that she mentioned Lorenz is a good sign that there will be cross-house interactions at the very least, maybe even some supports.
-
For my picks I’ll go Gilliam and Lute. @Lunarly
-
I don’t care much about Canon classes. Regardless of everyone’s preferences, I’m putting them on a flying mount. Alternatively with Dimitri I’m half tempted to make him a fist-fighting class since that seems funny. I like the idea of making the characters excel in things that go against their image.
-
Ohhh it’s a snake draft, gotcha. I didn’t know for sure. With an early game pick secured, I’ll pick up a late recruit: Cormag.
-
Well instead of picking up a cavalier or a flyer, I’m gonna break the mold and grab Moulder.
-
I’ve never taken part in a draft before even though I’ve always wanted to, so sign me up.
-
I’m general I don’t believe leaks fully even if it’s coming from someone credible because generally with leaks that get things right, they also usually have false information thrown in as well. So some of this stuff might be true, but at least some of it is probably fake. Regardless of the validity of this information I feel pretty confident that I’ll enjoy the game from what we’ve seen from Famitsu, so I’m not too invested in the legitimacy.
-
Yeah, considering anyone can use any weapon, classes are more about the class exclusive skills which can only be used while in the class. While the Dark Mage and Brawler are male exclusive, the Mage and Brigand have the same weapon specialties so they’re probably gonna be similar classes, just a slightly different skill set. The most restrictive thing I’ve seen so far is just that you can’t punch on a mount, which makes sense logically.
-
He’s all about being a swordsman, huh... Well buckle up Felix, you’re learning how to punch people.
“Unconventional” Builds you’ve had fun with
in Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Posted
What are some builds that diverge from a character’s canon class line and specialities that you’ve had a fun time with?
I recruited Ingrid in my Church run, so during my Blue Lions run I decided to make her an armor unit and because of her good speed and res, she’s basically unkillable. I’m gonna make her a Great Knight but I gave her the March Ring so she’s still managing to keep up with everyone else decently enough at the moment.
During the Church route I basically made everyone a Flyer, and while pretty much everyone did decently, Wyvern Lord Ferdinand was the ultimate dodge tank with late game enemies having a 0% hit rate against him if he waits at full health. (Everyone knows flyers are busted in this game by now but it’s still very satisfying to see.)
