...this is not a patch or anything to modify the rom with. It's an EXE that generates a text file with randomized list of classes. Basically if you want a challenge run with characters using specific classes. Also, are you a necromancer?

Arthur: A +2 special charge for him, but +1 to his opponent. Sure, it would probably suck, but...

Well CF at least drops Chapter 13 (aka, the most hellish chapter on Maddening), and from what I saw, Jeritza is outright insane right out of the gate (huge bases, insane class with Counterattack mastery, Scythe of Sariel, and also only male character other than NG+ Byleth to get Darting Blow to become even more insane)

Warp is not the only reason she's liked, she also gets THREE effective spells (Dark Spikes vs cavalry, Seraphim vs monsters, Luna might as well be effective against high res units like mages or pegasi), and she also has multiple nukes to call upon (Hades and Abraxas). Plus Mastermind means she doesn't have to spend most of the game getting those ranks (only about half of it 🙂). She has her flaws (no 1-3 range without a staff, Warlock is useless to her, squishy as hell), but she IS one of the top mages in the game.

Speed+2 is not as great for mages, since you have to take them out of mage class for at least 30 battles, and thrown them into the thick of it (and most mages are made of paper), though you can still use bows to avoid 1-range.

It's also only usable on an altar... which Medeus sits on. So still RIP Lena.

RIP Lena.

Three ways - grind him down to 50% with gambits, rely on dodgetanks, or enemy phase him with 1-3 range of your own.

1. In Book I yes, but in Book II you also get Jubelo and Arlen, who both promote into generic bishops. 2. Definitely show it off, idk about overginiding with it.

I'd say Mage Knight (advanced, mounted, +2 Reason/Faith/Riding, can use magic, class skills: Canto, Fiendish Blow, master skill: Seal Magic), Trueblade (master, +3 Sword/Axe/Brawl, class skills: Swordfaire, Fistfaire, Avoid +10, master skill: idk), Baron (master, armored, +3 Axe/Reason/Authority, can use magic, class skills: Axefaire, Black Magic uses x2, Dark Magic uses x2, mastery skill: General), and Archsage (master, +3 Reason/Faith, can use magic, class skills: White Magic Range +1, Black Magic Range +1, Dark Magic Range +1). Opinions?

Alright, thanks for clarifying that. Still wish you had less memes on your channel, but it's your channel.

You can still give him an Angelic Robe? And transformation formula changes again in FE11 IIRC. At least his level got reset? Buttt, yeah 🙂 Also, Mage Dragon. Hope you got wyrmslayers.

If we're talking Maddening, then it doesn't matter how high or low your speed is short term - if you're not Byleth, Petra or Felix, you will get doubled by 60% of enemies, and it's debatable on Byleth.

Didn't think about complete non-recruitment run (by virtue of lacking a Switch 🙂 ), but I did think of a run where you recruit everyone you don't encounter as an enemy or NPC post-timeskip. Which basically means that some are on every route (Marianne, Lorenz though, you have to beat some sense into even if recruited), some miss only one route (Raphael, Hanneman and Manuela miss AM, Ashe, Alois and Shamir miss CF, and so on), and pretty much every Black Eagle aside from Caspar (who gets an exception and is recruited on AM due to additional scenes his paralogue unlocks) is stuck being a Black Eagle.

Weren't we discussing early game usefulness? Not to mention he still has Rally Strength, if you have a spare slot you might want to keep him around just for that?
