Hi there! I decided to give Conquest Hard another try and maybe I can finally beat it... or so I thought. I found out a thing that bugs me to no end:
If Corrin doesn't have a Defence of 9 or higher and Speed of 10 or higher (not counting Kaze-pair-up, which, along with the 10 Speed, is necessary if you want to One-Round the Faceless) by the time Chapter 4 rolls around, you're screwed. The Faceless WILL steamroll you and kill you in a matter of seconds, but if you take it slow, Hinoka and Sakura WILL die, meaning you don't get the Concoction, which will be very useful in Chapter 7.
So, the game basically becomes unwinnable just because the RNG screwed you over on your level-ups. I had to start the game over and decided I would save before every level up until I get the right amount of stats (playing on Hard/Casual btw).
And then I found out that you cannot reset level-ups with regular battle-saves, because you get the same stats no matter what you do.
If you want to get the right stats, you will have to start the entire map over or have a metric crap-ton of luck. And with my natural bad luck when it comes to level ups with Corrin if I don't put Aptitude on there... Well...
I'm slowly starting to think that the additional class growths are a red herring and don't actually exist...
Thank you, IntSys. Thank you.
Well, anyway. Thanks for hearing me out, you guys. I'll just... sit in a corner and cry.
