Whoops, that was supposed to be Lon'qu. Edit: yeah, upon review there's very little reason to do it this way and not with the secondary options. So, it'll be: Cherche x Henry Cordelia x MaMU (+MAG -LUK) Lissa x Ricken Maribelle x Lon'qu Miriel x Gregor Nowi x Vaike Olivia x Stahl Panne x Virion Sully x Donnel Sumia x Chrom Tharja x Gaius The only one of these I'm still somewhat conflicted about is Panne and Virion. I picked Virion because he was the only remaining candidate who could pass down the archer line for Hit +20, but I'm wondering if Frederick wouldn't be a superior option for Dual Guard+ instead.

So, I've been playing around with pairings for a potential Lunatic run (I've only played through the game once on Hard), and I've come up with a set of options I'm leaning towards, and an alternative set. I do own the DLCs and I'm hoping to take a shot at Apotheosis eventually. Here's the "Plan": Cherche x Stahl (or Henry) for physical support Gerome (pair with physical Lucina) Cordelia x MaMU (+SPD or +MAG / - LUK) for Dark Fliers Severa and Morgan Lissa x Ricken for Galeforce Sage Owain (pair with Severa or Morgan) Maribelle x Lon'qu for Galeforce Sage Brady (pair with Severa or Morgan) Miriel x Gregor for Sorceror Tank Laurent (pair with Cynthia) Nowi x Vaike for Manakete Tank Nah (on bench) Olivia x Chrom (or Stahl) for sniper Inigo (pair with general/hero Kjelle) Panne x Virion (?) for physical support Yarne (pair with sniper Noire) Sully x Donnel for physical Kjelle (pair with sniper Inigo) Sumia x Henry (or Chrom) for Dark Flier Cynthia (pair with Laurent) Tharja x Gaius for sniper Noire (pair with Yarne) Alternatively I could make Gaius!Noire into a Dark Flier and Severa into a sniper instead, flipping their supporters.
