Tome Users only, No Avatar Hard Playthrough

[Vashiane]

Oh no...I messed up real badly in Chapter 8. Apparently I forgot to actually VISIT the village in Turn 5 because I can't find the Master Seal anywhere. GG me. GG

Oh NO. And the next Master Seal is in chapter 10... DX

[PKL]

Luckily, the chapter is so easy that I just redid it in like 3 minutes :P. It's the same strat as the old one but the stats have changed.

Miriel 10/18.90 HP 44 Str 4 Mag 18+2 Skl 17 Spd 21 Lck 16 Def 11 Re 16 Tome A Frederick S

Ricken 18.99 HP 33 Str 5 Mag 20+2 Skl 11 Spd 18 Lck 18 Def 13 Res 8 Tome A Cordelia C Claire C

Ricken didn't make it to Level 19 which is odd. But he got even MORE spd wtf is going oooon. Miriel also seems to have gotten a better level, barring no mag proc.

[PKL]

Chapter 9

Ricken goes down and kills an Archer, getting a level. Miriel also goes down and kills a Wyvern. Chrom stays put. Everything in the area dies to both mages in EP. Turn 2 I have Ricken go down and promote to Sage. Miriel stays in range of the Javelin soldier so she can kill him in EP. Turn 3 Miriel goes down. Ricken goes right and kills things in EP though he's not in Tharja's range obviously. Turn 4 I have Ricken use Rescue on Chrom so he can talk to Tharja and pair up with her so she can ORKO the remaining wyvern. Libra is done with enemies on his side and Ricken finishes off the chapter by killing the boss.

So, to those who have used Tharja before, who is her best pair up partner? I'm thinking Gregor.

Paralogue 4

I gave Tharja a Godess Icon before the chapter. I had Tharja and Miriel take down 2 enemies on the right side and Ricken took on a bunch of the enemies on the left side. Chrom just hid. Tharja killed 2 things in EP. Turn 2, I have Ricken rescue Anna and Chrom talks to her and pairs with her and they hide. Tharja is healed by Ricken and in the following turns, I feed a lot of kills to Tharja, making sure she doesn't face any enemies with crit. Then Miriel Ricken and Tharja made their way up and Miriel ended up taking down the boss and luring all the other enemies. Tharja got those enemies and she also killed the rest of the map.

Gregor is defenitely a fantastic partner for her. It affords her with the bonuses she wants- And those happen to be Spd & Def. Heck, I think most people would love Spd/Def. They're great bonuses.

Well I liked Lon'qu because it helped her not to get crit all the time. I think I will keep it like this for now.

Chapter 10

Ricken rescues Miriel forward and she obtains the Master Seal. She uses it in Turn 2 to promote to Dark Knight. Ricken obtains the Seraph Robe in Turn 3, Tharja gets another kill and Miriel ORKOs Mustacha.

Hmm...I wonder if Chrom and Avatar will get married...I really want that Naga Tear. I imagine they will, since they spent Prologue together...though they didn't get a C support, they must have support points. I hope I don't get maiden! If that happens, I will end up getting a late Naga Tear I guess, If I pair Claire with Henry instead of Sumia.

[PKL]

Chapter 11

Ricken rescues Miriel down and she KOs all the enemies near Gangrel Turn 1 and counters Gangrel for 15 damage. Tharja Nostanks on the right side against the mages and Ricken goes for the hero. In turn 2, Miriel killed the thief and in Turn 3, she killed Gangrel. Ricken used Rescue on Tharja so she could get a level up from the remaining mercenary.

I think I'm making Tharja a sorcerer because I need a Mire user for Chapter 23. Although I guess Miriel Tharja could go Dark Knight now and one of them could later reclass to sorc. Henry is definetely going Dark Knight for the better spd promo gain over Sorc.

Err, ok?

Chapter 12

Miriel heads to the west. Ricken takes the middle and Tharja takes the east in Turn 1. Turn 2 I have Ricken heal and go up towards the Bow Knight and Cav co. same with tharja. Miriel also sits next to the bow Knight on the west. In Turn 2 EP a loooot of things die to them and due to a miscalculation and bad luck with 30-ish hitrates Ricken was left with 1 hp, heh. (literally everything hit him wtf). He used an elixir in Turn 3 and went up, same with Miriel and Tharja. Everyone but the boss died in EP and the boss fell to Tharja in PP 4.

Chapter 13

Tharja took the east side enemies, picking off the Longbow archers in each Player Phase she could. Miriel took the west side and the some of the southern enemies. Henry+Sumia sat on one of the 3 forts in the south and killed enemies that spawned there with Ruin. Ricken took on the north portion of the map. After everyone was done, Ricken finished the boss in PP5.

Paralogue 12

Ricken rescues Morgan out of the way and chrom recruits him. They both hide for the rest of the chapter. Miriel got the Bullion and went back to handle the fliers that rush from the east. Henry promoted by Turn 3 to a Dark Knight. The majority of the kills went to Henry and Tharja and I had to be really careful and heal/rescue them away from danger multiple times with Ricken. After I was done routing, I rescued Tharja and Henry up to the boss so they could kill him. Henry ended up getting the kill.

Wow...my Tharja is so spd screwed. I now have:

Seraph Robex1

Energy Dropx2

Spirit Dustx2

Secret Bookx2

Godess Iconx2

Talismanx1

Naga Tearx1

I'm thinking the Naga Tear should go to either Henry or Tharja, leaning towards Henry. The Robe on one of Ricken/Tharja/Henry. The Energy Drops probably sold because they're useless to me. The Dusts maybe to Henry or Tharja? The books and Icons probably sold or on Tharja if i dont need the money. Talisman im not sure.

Should I recruit Laurent now or when he can get Lifetaker + Luna?

EDIT 2: I'm an idiot, he will never get Luna because Fred learns it at Level 5. DERP.

I've decided to wait on recruiting Laurent just so he can have Lifetaker. I gave the Tear to Henry and Henry Tharja received one Spirit Dust each. The Robe was put on Tharja.

Chapter 15

Miriel moves left and is in range of the Dark Knight by the boss. Henry goes up towards the Say'ri area. Ricken rescues Say'ri and Chrom recruits her and pairs into her and she gets out of range. Tharja heads left through the beach. Turn 2, I have Henry finish off the Dark Knight because Miriel didn't ORKO or crit (37% with focus and all that jazz) and he's also in range of the lone mage in the west. Ricken heads towards the armors that were supposed to attack Say'ri. Tharja gets in range of the group in the beach and kills all of them in EP. Miriel dealt with the boss in PP2 and the General in EP.

Ok, scratch Noire being recruited right now. Her Paralogue is ridiculous.

Chapter 16

Ricken took the west. Tharja and Henry took the east. Miriel went through the center to the boss area. Henry also got the Falcoknight in the far northeast. The thieves were the priority in PPs. The boss fell to Miriel just before the reinforcements came.

They appear from the sides of the map. So get your squishies back to where your guys started... and of course, mind the Falcon Knights (which appear on the right side)!

Ah, the right side. The thing is, I have to have Cherche move the right way because she is carrying Chrom away from danger. Laurent is also pretty bad at defense so yeah. Thanks.
