    Use Erik, this sad wet little man only believes in his own strength stat, he can get one rounded by generics in his join chapter I gave him speedwings and you should too.

    Also you should kill off Tick to not reach the 52 character hard limit.

    Anyway good hack fun, funny, deliciously f*cked up at times, competently written too, and with such a dashing author too. 

    Well thats enough stroking Ruben's ego from me (for now) you should play this hack and ptaise the good herr Saint as well.

  2. This seems like a fun time. Havent actually checked the game out yet so this should be a good indicator to know if i'd enjoy it. My biggest question is does it have more of the good Thracia jank (fun hidden mechanics, wacky growths, nonstandardised enemies) or the bad Thracia jank (Invisible warp tiles, no map preview, player only ink of war). 

  3. So I dont really have anything to say about Sacae (based)/lIIia (cringe) that hasnt already been said other than the fact that if you dont recruit sue you cant go Sacae. But the other splits are pretty cool. 

    For Thracia what i haven't seen brought up in this thread yet is all the cool items that the b route gives you. Luna manual, a 2nd Vouge, Berserk Staff, Heim Scroll and 1-3 master swords depending on how capturey you feel. So the choice becomes do you go A route to get some strong units for your army or do you go B route to make your pre-existing army better. The only problem with B route is that 16b is the 2nd worst map in the game only losing out to the "Whacky Statue Heist of Blindness and Teleportation". Conomore is nice for the few outdoor maps you have left, Shannam helps oufit your goon squad with Silver weapons and I do enjoy Miranda if only for the absolute hilarity that is Wrath meteor shananagins. 

    But enough about the best game in the series its time for the real big route split.

    Eirika route has some of my favourite map ideas in the series. Revolt at Carcino is such a cool map conceptually. Normally maps where you save a bunch of green units they are on the way to the seize point, but this map has you approach from a weird angle where you need to get to Innes and co and form a defensive position using the little box and the walls while you divert another squad to rush Pablo. It would be such a good map if only Fe8 enemies knew what stats were. 

    The aias map is pretty interesting too as it puts the player in a pincer attack and forces the player to rush down Aias (or would if again Fe8 enemies were strong in any way). The maps biggest problem is that if you play too fast you miss Cormag which ruins the payoff for the whole Valter/Glen mini-arc so that kinda blows. I think the map would be better if it didnt have just Aias as a win condition but also Pablo too but hey I actually enjoy 5x so what do I know. 

    The Ephraim route maps are all kinda bleh with the exception of the Gheb chapter for entirely meme reasons. All the Ephraim maps are just kind of slow and boring. The only map thats more fun than its Eirika mode counterpart is the castle map, but thats just because the architects all suffered from heatstroke when designing Jehanna Hall.

    Ha you failed Butterman, you said you'd post more often but didn't.

    Moving on. 

    How dare you! I'll have you know, there's roughly 60 characters that beg to disagree. There's even one or two that were my enemies when my wrath consumed them!

    *67

    Why, you little-- That wasn't necessary, Butterman!

    Nyohoho

    Valora kinda reads like Valery

    Get it now?

    Sure I guess. 

    You fool! I shall instead wait patiently and politely for the next update! I have foiled your plans with my tactical genius!

    Ruben will wait patiently for his revenge but only for 7 months, after that something something Inevitable End. 

    Oh no, these guys look really powerful. We should layasu down our arms.

    you've Fightba'd yourself again Ruben. 

    Why are they talking like they die after their pokemons get beaten up? That's not how this world works! After you lose you don't die, you just make a dumb face and die inside!

    Look dont question this okay. 

    Wasn't Buttface's name different last we saw him?

    Different guy Ruben. 

    Armor knight pokemon! Armor knight pokemon! Use it.

    N O. 

    So many evolutions today. It's almost as if the title of the update itself said that there would be many evolutions.

    The rest of my responses are me reacting to your review of mons, so I'll just put it here:

    Cool

    Why does Spark disappoint?

    Beats me man. 

    So they did him dirty, ooof.

    Gyro ball's formula doesn't really work for the stats in this game, that's one issue, at least it can be a literal wall?

    it can wall, but chokepoints are too rare for walling to be considered a good trait. 

    Also, at least Wigglytuff exists, the other two are screwed (get to fix abilities but not change moves, how unfortunate)

    it aint much better but it's something. 

    Innate Regen, range, power and speed, this is legit class cannon here.

    Oh Kadabra's great. 

    So Charizard doesn't get Fire Blast?

    Nope that honour goes to Darmanitan, and it's one hell of a move. 

    That and having the same move as fliers in FEH aside, Charizard seems alright.

    It's pretty damn good. 

    >That Attack stat.

    Indeed. 

    Wasn't Ember at 1 range? And you know, not dropping an icicle on someone?

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Still better tank than Foretress stat wise.

    I mean there is a 10% Link difference but yeah. 

    Sure that typing, but still.

    it's cool fairy type doesn't exist yet. 

    I mean, more Power, right?

    It's a coin-toss between the two really.

    As always Oichi gives us advice for the coming battle. 

    Sb4u0vto oGv7iq5f5 oXm0bwgfy o

    The team today is smaller than usual, partially because this map can be awkward to move a lot of 'mons on, but mostly because I want the space to do things in the Kingdom this month ( I didn't end up doing anything in this kingdom because nothing I cared about was in the wild.

    This map has two gimmicks. Snow that reduces movement and Ice that really really increases it beyond control. Thankfully you an undo any slide movement which is just a Godsend. 

    Eaixy6xs oX4ea9ksd o

    Movement on this map can be kind of awkward, and I took these screenshots 7 months ago, so apologies if I can communicate what's going on very well. Anyway, turn 1 movement. 

    Lrkabxpl oBwtn1weo oKf83zwyl oJpmbgjl9 o

    Did I say this map has 2 gimmicks? Whoops, it actually has 3. The Ice panels over water move when a 'mon steps on them. Anyway, the enemies move and Gracia has a line. 

    S54xfdkq oApyie7xz oHleq8mzk oPxe0v99g oRqwbngcz oKnufyy4q o

    Anyway, Charizard melts Cubchoo, Vaporeon acts out that one part of the Bible and Conkeldurr breaks a Tree for a Potion. 

    Ypekdyrp oOohqdaec o

    They move. Did I say 3 Gimmicks? I meant 4! Thin Ice turns into Cracked Thin Ice when a 'mon stands on it, and well, you'll see.

    Tz37mfny oBtjzdkgo oPjbqwxox o

    I think Vaporeon got hit last turn for lol damage, but because quality LP I didn't catch it. Anyhow, we attack and move. 

    Cpegaf1t oCsx98eno o

    I didn't even get any shots of EP, aren't you glad this Quality LP is back. 

    4czh9mmk oUmwviwwh oAa7ykke9 oB5fzqsbf oKyl5hz9n oK6zmyzkn o

    Anyway, Vaporeon smashes some Ice through Lapras and using some cool positioning, Charizard and Ampharos attempt something cool, but Amphy whiffs it. Conkeldurr will do something any minute now. 

    Xtndwyj8 oI9slj8rx oTopko8v8 oIxcj1jnr oPisin2vo o

    Conkeldurr falls asleep, truly a vital part of our team and Mitsuhide does whatever his Warrior Skill is (Crack Shot, not that I took any screenshots of Mitsuhides team comp, goddamn 7 months ago me, were you even trying?), hitting his Teammate to hit us. Talk abot cold *badum-tsh*

    Rpal8c2i oEkfru5u7 oMimwcpch oGrelsfqw oEdyj9f16 oZxpfwylr oRvhwph8m oIbgw8cv6 oRn66k3oa o

    The team pull off some awesome moves, dealing hard hits and managing inventory, while Conkeldurr does nothing, the lazy bum. 

    6ruvfn11 oZosazt45 oZdm1ztvk o7nwrweah o0ut7hedl o

    D-did I just catch an entire enemy phase extremely well, 7 months ago me was inconsistent as hell. Anyway, we take some hits and Munna is reapplying Hypnosis so Conkeldurr won't wake up (which isn't even how the game handles Sleep, but since it can't make any other actions, it will keep on trying)

    Zvrawfus oQgwiz9xi oE9ehrvl9 o07r2eafa o4jhgdf9k o

    1 hit, 1 heal and 2 immobile. How exiting. 

    Yvvb3ilm oXu4lbldy oVf6xef2b oFz4p3om4 oKodvye9p o

    Sealeo gets Paralysed, Munna applies a 3rd coat of Sleep, and Musharna fucks around and finds out with the Thin Ice. (it drops you in water, and if you aren't a water type the game forces you out the same way GBAFE units are when their rescuer dies on a peak tile). 

    3ci5nlhx oUkn4adur oUeyzkrb8 oIugj7nv7 o7qzjnzh0 o

    Mitsuhide is gone Krabby (not in the game) Rave. We also hit the others. 

    Ukhqxokv oMkfrajsd o

    Love how due to the fact Mitsuhide is gone the camera pans to Gracia who is second-in-command who is just dicking around at the top of the stage. Also nothing of note must have happened. 

    S8rnqin8 oJi6nljdi oQ8obnyox oWupwwlrf oOehjaylh o9kdcggyu oBdwfswjm oHevyjfon oH8rpr5hs oLsawdzjn o

    Conkeldurr wakes up and chooses violence and Charizard and Vaporeon, do to Sealeo, something they call Blanching in the food processing world. Sadly funny Ice physics do not apply to shoved 'mons, but then again a Munna carcass sliding across an ice field like a goddamn curling stone may not have been PG.

    All of this stuff happens. 

    Now an unfortunate incident occurred after this. As you know, I try to feature two battles in every update so that updates have substance, usually I do the battles on separate months for better pacing of the update, which means I don't take screenshots of most auxiliary grinding battles, this coming battle was no different, however...

    ...Yep, we lost him in a non important battle. Charmeleon then attempted to evolve, which I had to refuse as his Pokemon was defeated and losers don't get to evolve. So yeah.

    Vq9m7ua1 oGwcn8arm o

    On a separate note, Chikamasa's Empoleon has reached its Link Cap. Sadly Chikamasa's Perfect Link isn't empoleon (It's Wooper and Quagsire if you want to know) so his Empoleon will never get any stronger than it is now.

    Uujhl5x9 o30thi1en oJwe5gbud oHhzvf0jl o8iofkzyg o

    Continuing from where Luxio left off Luxray is kind of just a worse Ampharos, along the line Luxray lost it's advantage in power against the sheep Pokemon to go all in with speed, which could have been good if it weren't for the fact that they're both locked to Thunder which is inherently sorta inaccurate, so you have the choice between the actually significantly more powerful and bulky Ampharos or the slighty more accurate and dodgy Luxray. It's actually a kind of sad mirror of the rivals in Pokemon games, where they start off even with the player but by the end of the game you stomp them into the dirt. 

    Anyway, moving on. 

    Lcakfg8j oRu5qtfde oOvujonay oZqy2hazn o

    This also happens. 

    Nvgxv8nc oPs2qmxj2 o

    And now we grind Ryhorn.

    10 turn rout map. 

    Pbifcns1 oMybuon3d oSe4gggmk oWo1cdhgs o

    This map is small, so we can actually look at it from all angles. 

    Juzoduwb o9vyyzy5o oSi0cbwcb o4oqixsar oXc7kjfxt o

    Our first turn we make a formation and Ryhorn picks up 2 items, the potion was obtained from destroying a tree if it wasn't immediately clear. 

    Aet2tfyd o1lr6chpo oD8hmriug oLbnpkxok oSiaqjdoi o

    Empoleon and Vaporeon soften Spheal for Ryhorn to Bulldoze. Conkeldurr takes a trip on an Ice Floe. 

    Gjuxfdxh oFrw9czlg oTzelxg9f oWd3laq15 oYf0yl9rz o

    Ryhorn misses a bulldoze and Vaporeon wipes out a Duskull, also items. 

    Av2lejqy o62ashc83 oTfv5f2jx oRgfevkiv o

    Wa1lhldb o

    Ryhorn lands his Bulldoze and we grab some more items.

    Avh4qavn oVkvaf7az oBrauqrmn oMm3cctzg oRz9ycjhw o

    We grab some more stuff and Ryhorn closes in on the last enemy. 

    72pl6miv oG54ywq4f oBny3zzw7 oX6qdbjfm o

    We grab everything and...

    4kqfkptp oCnw09r2e o

    That's a wrap. 

    Rvkkrkzd oN0j9wdab o

    Some nice stuff here. 

    Zq9tq2df oGhso1nhu oGxwg1g4k oQtxl6fil o

    Rhydon Time.

    Vlxa3eit o

    Rhydon is pretty darn good, its power and bulk are great and it doesn't have Rhyperior's ass-bad Range or Move. Drill run is like Gyro ball but not horrible. Its strong and has a high critrate. If you play right Ryhorn can move 3 times as far as Rhyperior in 1 turn. See now how bad Rhyperior is?

    I2k5dx8m oMngbf5eo oNribnrgy o

    Onward to Spectra.

    Boy am I glad to finally have this out. I still intend on completing this LP (for the main game at least) but don't expect updates frequently, as I'm currently busy with college stuff. There probably won't be another update until at least October, but as can be seen from the 7 month hiatus, I'm not too good at keeping a schedule. 

    Until next time folks, stay buttery.

    You know, if all you wanted was a chunky wall, beating Desaix for his Draco Shield and shipping it to Celica  would be all it would take. +13 Defense would make Genny as durable Barron Valbar when promoted to Saint for 5 Base Defense.

    Giving that to some physical unit sounds a lot more convenient than having to grind Valbar in dungeon encounters.

    There are a few issues with this approach.

    1. You'd have to play halfway through Alm act 3 before you could even transfer the dracoshield, and at that point you're better off finishing the Alm section so you dont have to deal with more reinforcements.

    2. The Dracoshield ruins a characters speed and prevents them from wielding a weapon, so any unit with the draco shield loses any ability to reliably kill enemies, while baron Valbar has base 22 Atk and can wield a weapon, making him a more useful combatant than any Dracoshield user. 

    3. Getting the dracoshield off Desaix is a very, very time consuming task, as you either have to grind two ram villagers up to high level mages, which takes a really long time in the deliverance hideout, or surround desaix while healing through all the damage he does to whoever fights him. all the while Slayde is running around either killing your squishies or getting himself killed, and if he croaks thats a lost dracoshield. But by all means this is oh so much more convenient than getting Valbar some exp in 1 runthrough of the seabound shrine.

    The fact that you've thought this all out is making me irrationally angry. Like, something about Valbar taking 30 turns or so to clear out the Archer Fort (but doing so without any realistic risk of death) makes my efficiency side experience increasing groans of discomfort.

    Good, it is my life's work to spread the agenda of anti-ltc. 

    19 hours ago, AnonymousSpeed said:

    It's efficiency of brain power. Once Valbar is not at risk of death, he can be thoughtlessly thrown at enemies. No mental energy required.

    Use big brain to negate need for brain. It's automation at work.

    Funny thing is that I realised the *potential* of baron Valbar by complete accident. I was just trying to not waste exp beyond promotion thresholds on team Celica so I had a level 6 Valbar when i reached the exp fountains and I had tge funny thought of act 2 baron Valbar as a meme run for Celica side. (it should be noted that i was doing an all cavalier run of Alm route featuring pitchforked Lukas, Silque and Clair) It was only on a dedicated attempt that i got a (mostly) reliable replicatable route to the funny.

    This is one of the spiciest opinions I've seen in a while. I implore you to go on.

     

    In terms of levelling Valbar need to get to level 10 to become a Baron. However, since he gets the last 3 for free, he only Neede to reach level 7, or rather, he needs to level up 6 times. 

    The first map Valbar takes part in is the Cantor boat map. Valbar is able to tank Revenants for days, so as long as you arent trying to LTC, he will be able to get an easy level off of the revenants, Maybe even two levels if spawns are consistently large, an optional 2nd (or 3rd) level can be gleamed if Valbar kills the boss, but he is not the best choice for this, as Celica may still need Seraphim. Due to the many kills he gets Valbar should obtain 40-50 bexp. So we will assume he is at level 2 with 90 exp. 

    There are now 2 options for which map to take, however it is recommended to battle the pirates, first, as this will make it easier to promote Valbar. Valbar easily beats this whole map, meaning he will be able to level up again and should be given the bosskill unless Celica has not learned Seraphim (in which case, what are you even doing) for a 2nd level this map. He should gain 20-30 bexp. We will assume that Valbar is now at level 4 with 20 exp (blaze it Valbar) He needs to level up 3 more times to promote. 

    You could go onto that Arcanist boat next but 1. Valbykins doesn't eat mages and 2. You don't need to. Onward to the Seabound shrine. Valbar will gain like 6 exp total from the necrodragons, unless he kills one in which case he gets 30 ish exp for the small one and 50 for the boss, don't bother with that however as it requires some specific damage outputs from your mages to set one of them up. Valbar is now at level 4 with 26 exp (bye bye funny number). 

    You will find 2 bonewalker encounters and 1 revenant in the first room and 1 revenant, 1 bonewalker and 2 gargoyle encounters in the second (disregarding rare spawns). Valbar will be able to get 1 level in 2 (individual) bonewalker encounters from kills and bexp, easily enough and shouldnt have any trouble getting some good exp from the rev, at this point he will be around level 5 and 60, he wont level off the revenant in the next room, but if fed the full encounterhe should come out at level 5 and 90 give or take a few points, he will come out at either 6 and 10 or 6 and 40 depending on whether you fought them one or two encounters at a time. The gargoyle encounters will most likely be faced at the same time, so just send Valbar straight in to get that epic victory royale, but you gotta be quick kid, and move all of Celica's crewmates away so as not to divert attention from Valbo. He hits level seven, eats an apple and drinks some water and bippidy, bobbidy baron, there you go. 

     

     Now as for Valbar over Palla, it comes down to Palla not really needing her promotion at that point (the only thing that Falcoknight significantly contributes to in act 3 is 1 rounding summoned gargoyles, but expel does that anyway) she doesnt gain any attack, only gains 2 spd (for a whopping 12 speed unarmed about as fast as an unarmed mercenary) and she has enough base HP and a 50% growth that she only gets on average of 4 hit points on promo. She gets 4 def and and 7 res, the latter of which sounds impressive but this is SoV where magic enemies are either too weak or too strong for 7 extra res to matter. The extra point of move doesnt even help get Palla anywhere she needs to go any faster. 

    Baron Valbar however with his chunky 18 defense takes a single point of damage from every Melee attack thats' not from Deen or Blake throughout the entirety of act 3 without having a Shield equipped. This allows Valbar to absolutely demolish the Archer fort, the Deen map (leather shield Valbar takes 1 damage from Deen at base) and as long as you take care of the witches and arcanists, the Grieth map as well, all of which FalcoPalla struggles to survive in. Sadly, the Mila temple is a bit to mage powered for Valbar, and act 4 is just not friendly to armor knights, the exp shrine in the tempel basement will allow you to get a falcoknight for act 4 where they are actually good. Also give Valbar the Dracoshield for Duma Tower Funnies

    Thus, Valbar is a better user of the Seabound exp fountains and apple, than Palla.

    Clint got killed in two hits.

    Clint more like Clout. (I think ive used this one before, Also the image of his death isnt loadingfor me atm, so heres when he died I guess. 

    Normally, this is where I would pun the entire death count, but I've been half-assing my replies this whole LP and I see no reason to stop now.

    I love how someone finally, FINALLY broke the tie at the poll... Immediately after the LP ended

    Hmm, is that so?

    It's been a fun ride, thanks. 

    Now if only I could get back to my own LP...

    Okay, so, chapter 8 is done. I had a very Ruben idea to dash forward with Silas carrying Elise so I could freeze the soldier before he reached the village. When Flora froze him, I was still feeling confident. I had gone a long way, I was sure Elise could reach after a quick swap.

    Then I checked the range and Elise couldn't reach. And Felicia was too far away. So the soldier reached the village and plopped 5 enemies on top of me. I panicked a bit and retreated, then began to pick off enemies... Except I couldn't pick off enough. One fighter survived. Felicia was forced to heal Elfuigi in roder to avoid the quickest run end in the history of Ironmanning.

    Aaaaaand then the fighter decapitated Niles, which means I've lost Niles, Nina, Haitaka, Kumagera, Candace, Nichol and all of my freebie generics.

    ...I think my only consolation is that I look forward to Shrimpy's reaction to this. His blood's going to fucking freeze lol.

    Bwahahahahahah. 

    Niles, more like Bye-byeles. 

    Also you managed to make Christine the first Death in a Berwick ironman again, and you werent even playing Berwick this time.

    There's a better word for that than "instances", but I can't remember it and it's the most fucking frustrating thing ever. I've been on this fucking sentence for a full minute just trying to remember the word I'm thinking of and getting angry at nothing in particular, what a great LPer I am.

    Iterations.

    Certain people are starting to suspect foul play on my part

    People would have to reply to voice their suspiscions so you're probably good.

    Carter has made his Departer. 

     

    Also, just wanted to let you know that you can probably expect my LP to pick back up next Weekend. 

     

  13. The real problem is that Fandom, will continue to earn revenue regardless of whether the content is 'accurate' or not, so a lot of people don't see much point fixing the entries, as it will only make Fandom more money, and Fandom don't care because they still make money anyway. 

    Other people don't see any reason to edit the Fandom wiki as the most important character info (base stats, growth rates, starting inventories, weapon ranks, classlines, support partners, skills, bloods/crests, etc.) is available and almost entirely accurate, while Chapter, map, class and item entries have almost no issues. 

    If you really want to fix up the Fandom site you're probably better off looking on the reddit because of the higher traffic. 

    Good luck anyways.

    Bella went to Hella (ignore that I've totally used this one before)

     

     

  15. As Saint Rubenio says, the best way is to kill them all (or just 1 gender) just have them empty their inventories and walk into the desert and they go down hard. But dont worry, as long as you dont put male and female units next to each other too much and avoid the big love boosting conversations (especially Lewyns). You can still do some of the early convos, like Lex/Ayra and Dew/Lachesis since these characters have slow Love Growth and wont be next to each other very often. Also once you kill Chagall in ch 3 seize Orgahill as fast as you can, because Finn has ridiculous love growth with Taillte and Brigid. 

    As for inheritance, it depends on whether or not you want to do a lot of inheritance (id reccommend against this, as it can make the run triflingly easy. For my run, I gave Seliph a Steel Sword and a Res ring. Leif got the light brand, an iron blade and a defense ring. Altena got Gae Bolg (obviously) a Javelin and a Return Band, and Finn got his Brave Lance, a Javelin and a Speed Ring. 

    If you want to do lots of inheritance for some reason just give Seliph every Sword as well as Paragon Band and Leg Ring, Leif every other ring/band, Finn every lance you get up to that point and Altena will have Gae Bolg. Do this and the game becomes so easy its not even fun (just like every fe 4 run where you use the child units. 

    Also, for chapter 7 theres a common glitch (because fe4) where Seliph and Daisy become lovers in 2 turns (it gives Daisy, Julia's base love of 490) which causes you to miss the Brave Sword so make sure you reset the game on that map. 

    The base cast (don't call them substitutes reeeee) don't need improving. They have their own special events that make them strong enough to beat the gane while still keeping it challenging. 

  16. Shooter (unless it's Kid Icarus uprising, but that's honorarily not a shooter) - because move reticle onto enemy and hold button until dead never really appealed to me

    Horror - I spook really easily and don't enjoy getting scared. 

    Dating Sims - Just not intersted. 

    Visual Novel - because 80~ percent of them are just Dating Sims. 

    Online - If I need internet access in order to play, I'm probably not going to pick it up. 

    RTS - I don't get this genre. 

    Also games that list themselves as Platformers first and foremost are uninteresting to me. I do enjoy some level of platforming, but not a whole game based on it.

    Castlevania getting equal billing in the name "Metroidvania", when Metroid has ten more years of history in that style of game and the primary innovation of the SotN-and-beyond games is just grinding experience and drops. 

    I mean to be fair Metroid only has 4 games (and 2 remakes) in that style, whereas Castlevania has 7, and who's really played Return of Samus? Also, randomized castlevania is a lot more interesting than randomised metroid, but that could be more my opinion due to preferring rpg elements over skill based challenges.
