CT075 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Oh, joy. I beat the first few chapters, anyway. (READ: 1-5) The prologue's a joke and the other ones involve Titania killing everything. So does this one. Next chap, I get Shinon and Gatrie back! And yes, this is on HM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlejack Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Good luck with Ch. 7, 8, 13, 18, and Endgame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 Good luck with Ch. 7, 8, 13, 18, and Endgame. Ch 7 I can beat by having Ike and co. hide in a corner while Tits goes around murdering people. Oh, and Shinon/Gatrie, too. In Ch8 I can have Tits rescue Ike unequipped and have her load up on Vulneraries. In Ch13 I have promo'd Kieran, Zihark, Tits and Jill. Also Gatrie and lolAstrid. I think this is the point when Titania stops doubling, though T_T In Ch18 I get Shinon back, not to mention I still have Jill and Kieran (this being when Zihark and Tits become obselete) As for Endgame... crap. I'm more worried about Ch17, right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEST TRYNDAMERE PLAYER Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 (edited) Endgame HM can be done with Nasir+Wrath and/or Resolve but then you probably won't get Nasir on a 0-growth run since Ike will have NO chance against BK.

Mekkah Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Means what it says: everyone has 0% growths across the board. Of course, FE9 has bands and Knight Ward, so he might still be able to get speed levels in there and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 About endgame, I can prolly abuse Ena with Bands and then waste RNs so Ena can kill Ashnard. Then Giffca can eat him. Anyway, report: I'm up to Ch 12. Yay for laguzslayer, Zihark murders these chumps. Only problem is that Zihark can't double Seeker. 'course, I can always try for a crit.

CT075 Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 The desert's a bitch. Anyway, Ch13 involved Gatrie, Tits and Mordy walling while Volke got the chests. Ch14, Tits and Kieran cleaned up shop. Ho-hum. Now, I have to find a way to recruit Stefan without getting my team eaten alive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunny: spider bitten Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) This honestly should not be awfully hard - The game is loaded with great prepromotes. Even after that, Laguz, skills(some of which are broken), BEXP, weapon forgery, growth bands, and the Mag/Str split(to a small extent yay stat boosters) make the issue easier.

Yeah, but the main problem is Ch15, and Endgame. In Ch15, none of my units (Sans Lethe, Mordy and Gatrie) can stand up to laguz for long because Lethe and Mordy are off getting Stefan for me, and in Endgame Ike nor Ena stand a chance against Ashnard.

CT075 Posted November 1, 2009 Author Share Posted November 1, 2009 Save some speedwings and seraph robes for Ena and give her resolve. All my Seraph Robes are reserved so Ike can survive a hit or two from Siege Tomers. Although, if I save all my stat boosters and abuse bands with Ike, I could conceivably "kill" the BK and eat Ashnard with Nasir... Anyway, I eventually won the game Ch15 by ferrying Zihark with a Laguzslayer with Laguzguard!Jill and having Marcia ferry Volke. Took about 15 turns, since I had to wait for the Tigers by Muarim to revert before I could safely drop Zihark. Recruited Stefan and made the executive decision to give him an Ashera Icon, since he's going to be one of the few units that will remain viable for more than a couple chapters. In chapter 16, I recruited Danved/Devdan/whatever and got all the chests in 10 turns. I'm still finding ways to make base level Marcia useful. Chapter 17-3 will be hell.

dondon151 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 All my Seraph Robes are reserved so Ike can survive a hit or two from Siege Tomers. Rescuing exists for a reason. Roy doesn't need any Angelic Robes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy doesn't need any Angelic Robes. Unlike in your situation, none of my fliers can take a hit either. In fact, I think a few of them can double Marcia IIRC. And I can't just waste RNs to force a miss, since I'm no good at it. Edited November 1, 2009 by Fang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dondon151 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Rescue him with Titania/Kieran. If you can't find a way around it without dumping all of your Seraph Robes on Ike, you're not doing it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't find a way around it without dumping all of your Seraph Robes on Ike, you're not doing it right. Fair enough. Although I've already dumped Kieran (Too inaccurate- even with Swords) and Titania is quickly becoming obselete. Mak/Astrid/Oscar suck, and I don't get Geoffery for a while. Also, I'm not trying to low-turn this. But besides that, chapter 17.3 is really getting on my nerves. I can't rescue Ike to get him away from the action, I can't kill all of the surrounding enemies and Ike isn't good enough to survive long enough for me to hide in the corner, like I usually do. After doing some experimentation, Ike can survive a hit from the Bolting Sage at the start of chapter 27 (the one in the locked room) if he has a Seraph Robe and a +7 Pure Water. Or I could just kill him with a Calill/Bastian crit, but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vykan12 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I believe the best character you'd have at this point in such a run is Muarim. Make sure he has the demi-band, and have him do most of the fighting. There are a lot of 1-2 range enemies (particularly mages) in 17.3, so that's a bit problematic. What are your supports like? Do you have any spirit water currently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tits and Ike have a B, Ike and Lethe have a C,& Stefan and Mordy have a C. I guess I could always Shove Ike to safety... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 Right then, I've been too busy playing FE4 to notice this, but then I remembered to update. Ike promoted. Not that it helped, but... At any rate, I have Unkie Shinon back, and he kicks ass (For now). I also have Reyson (Yay) and Tanith (Yay x 2). I'm on Chapter 21, right now. I can't seem to figure out how to recruit Taur, though. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dondon151 Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Rescue Reyson, use your Restore staff, use a fairly durable unit to lure Tauroneo (assuming he moves, otherwise Ike can just walk in), etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
