Hey folks, I'm gearing up for another run of FE4, and I'm considering trying out different pairings than usual. I usually pair Sylvia with Claude and Bridget with Dew, but I wasn't sure if there are any other fun pairings I should try. I hear Holyn is a good pairing for Bridget - is there a good benefit for that pairing over Bridget x Dew?

Hey folks, I know we just got a new FE game a couple months ago, but what are you all expecting from tomorrow's Direct? Should we expect more FE news, or do you all think that will be at a later date? Any non-FE news you're expecting too? Edit: my hope is either an FE4 remake or Tellius HD re-releases, but I doubt there will be anything FE-related.

Hey folks, I'm playing hard/classic, and I'm currently doing Chrom/Robin's paralogue. One of my units just got KO'd, but instead of a death quote, it was a withdraw quote. Does permadeath not apply in the divine paralogues?

Hey folks, have any of you done the Soren paralogue prior to chapter 10 (Hard/Classic)? I've been trying to do it early since [insert spoiler here], but I've had a hard time beating it without promoted units (I only have one master seal so far). I'm able to make it through the bulk of the map okay, but then Soren shows up and wipes out half of my army in one fell swoop. Any tips? I did the Tiki paralogue as soon as it was available without much issue, and I haven't done any of the other divine paralogues just yet - I'll probably do the Hector one too, and get the others as I feel like it.

Fire Emblem character designs have always had an anime aesthetic, even going back to the first games. Many characters have been pretty young too, with a lot of teenage lords and whatnot. I do see what you mean though. My real concern is that it seems to me like they're milking all the early lords as much as they can, and might not leave enough breathing room for the new characters. Part of me actually went "If I wanted to play Heroes, I would pick up my phone and play Heroes!" while watching the announcement.

Me, just hoping we finally get an announcement for an actual mainline game or remake if/when a September Direct comes around:

I know this thread is basically dead, but does anyone know if any other rumors have been bubbling to the surface? I know it's full promotion mode for the new Warriors game coming out later this month, but is there a chance we'll hear about a new mainline/remake soon?

I started a playthrough of Radiant Dawn yesterday, and I'm hoping to plan ahead for what skills I should give to which units. Any recommendations? Of course, I'll eventually give Ike Aether and Nihil, but what else?

Revelation is the best Fates game.

Does anyone else have trouble leveling Arden, Alec, or Noish in the first generation of FE4? Are there any good tips for training them? I've had success with the other units, save for maybe Taillte, but even with the pursuit ring on Arden and arena abusing with Alec and Noish, they seem to get nowhere once Ch 3 hits. Even the paragon ring could only get me so far with them. Edit: Any tips for Dew as well? Just trying to plan ahead for my next FE4 run, so I can try to promote everyone.

Nevermind, I found it out!

Hey everyone, I'm about to start FE4 for my second play-through, and there's a mistake I made in my first play-through that I don't want to repeat. What pairing should I do to make sure Ced gets the Forseti tome? I forget who I paired Lewyn with the first time, but it ended up with Caipre, who couldn't use it, nor could he even sell it to the pawnshop for Ced to buy.

So I'm playing FE1 for my second time, and since I think there's only one Orion's Bolt in this game (aside from the secret shop near the end of the game), I was wondering whether to raise Gordin or Castor. I've used Gordin before, and when I did, he completely outclassed even Jeorge upon promotion. Is Castor's mount worth using him instead? I used Wolf in my last playthrough, and he more or less fell off by the endgame.

I'm honestly wondering if it's worth starting up a new file on the double exp mode and re-doing the villager classes. Would any of you say that that mode is too easy?

Hey everyone, I recently started my first playthrough of FE2, and I was wondering how much grinding I should plan on doing. I'm at the beginning of chapter 3, and already, I'm starting to struggle with the first wave of cavaliers/armored units in the map at the beginning of Alm's route (the only units I have promoted are my villagers to their starting classes). I'm also kicking myself because I didn't realize that Cliff was one of the best mages of the game, and I made him an archer instead lmao
