luigi bros Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 (edited) In this game the arive victory goals are pointless because it's never just arrive it's always (insert character name here) arives. They're really just a seize goal that the main characterdoesn't have to do the seizeing and a specific character has to. Did anyone relize this?

_____ Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 They're basically Seize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibari Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I guess you could look at it like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bros Posted January 14, 2009 Author Share Posted January 14, 2009 I guess you could look at it like that. At least in Radiant Dawn. In Path of Radiance anyone can arive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Would you rather there always be some random building for people to seize instead of having to arrive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bros Posted January 14, 2009 Author Share Posted January 14, 2009 Would you rather there always be some random building for people to seize instead of having to arrive? No I'm just saying that in Path of Radiance arive goals were seize with any character but in Radiant Dawn it's just seize with a specific character.

I always had Ike arrive anyway. Edited January 14, 2009 by Hibari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanarkin Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Seize is taking over something not arriving to a certain position. I don't see how Laura would have the right to seize the mansion or whatever that is. She just wanted medicine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herr Wozzeck Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Eh, at least they have survive, guard, and rout (otherwise known as 'kill every last mother****er in the vicinity' in our imaginations) to spice things up. For some reason, that just made me think of Laura charging through the manor with 50 or so soldiers,and it made me laugh. I lol'd hard as well. "I want my medicine, bitches!"

Penitent Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 The one thing that bugged me about missions is there isn't really any/much differentiation between the objectives in Radiant Dawn, as they all amount to the same thing; wipe out the other guy and make it to this point. The only possible exceptions are some of the Defend battles (3-13), Geoffrey's Charge and the Dawn Brigade's escape missions, as Arrive and Seize missions demand you make your way to the boss - and thus, wipe out the enemy army. That's the vibe I kept getting. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_____ Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Fire Emblem is all about wiping out the enemy army. FE10's probably got the most differentiation out of any of the games. FE1-6 are all seize missions, iirc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_____ Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 FE1/3/DS didn't seem to be much different, either. I haven't played FE5 or FE2, so I wouldn't be able to tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dondon151 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 FE5 has a good deal of annoying escape/defend missions, considering that for most of the game your rebel army's running away from the Empire's forces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Poleax Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I love rout missions. It's good exp for your characters. No matter what the objective is, I always turn it into a rout mission. Arrive is basically seize with different characters but there are only like 3 arrive missions in this game. 1-2 I could understand being arrive but it could've also been seize (maybe). 2-2 should've been escape, it would've made more sense for everyone to escape the cave plus you'd get some bexp for having everyone escape. 3-4, I don't know what else it could've been besides arrive.

Even Geoffory's charge (forgot the chapter number) where you get BEXP for enemies thst survive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drayano Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I sometimes rout all enemies but not always. I usually don't bother on chapters like 2-3 and 3-2 because it's too much work to truly rout everyone and in 2-3's case you get BExp for enemies surviving anyhow. I sometimes wish 3-6 actually lasted longer so I could kill more of the laguz though ;-; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Poleax Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) Even Geoffory's charge (forgot the chapter number) where you get BEXP for enemies thst survive? No, I try not to kill them unless they end up blocking the way. I usually kill the two crossbow warriors, the horseslayer paladin, the speedwing halberdier and the boss. 3-2, I don't have the patience to lure the boss away so I can kill those enemies. I did it once with Ike but it wasn't worth it to me. Those are the only exceptions. I wish 3-6 and 3-12 weren't defeat X amount of enemies cause the DB really needs that exp. I was disappointed when 3-12 ended so quickly. After seeing all the enemies on the map, it just feels like wasted exp.

Herr Wozzeck Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Not to mention "Defeat X enemies", which I'm pretty sure is unique (so far) to Radiant Dawn. As far as I know, it is. Especially 3-F, where the counter isn't mentioned in the mission objectives at all. IIRC, its FE6 that's all sieze missions (FE4 as well, I guess). Yeah FE4 is all sieze, although there it's not as big a problem since there are four or five places you can sieze in any one chapter. I love rout missions. It's good exp for your characters. No matter what the objective is, I always turn it into a rout mission. They're also a good way to vent your frustration at the enemy army for all the trouble they've caused you throughout the past several chapters.
