DragonBladeSniper Report post Posted August 19, 2008 (edited) Did anyone actually kill Ike or his team? I would just run away and try to use the allies as meatshields (except 3-13 archer or course). Edited August 30, 2008 by DragonBladeSniper Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rehab Report post Posted August 19, 2008 I would've tried with Nolan and Edward, but then I realized Eddie didn't stand a chance in hell against a 20/20 mostly capped Ike. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zanarkin Report post Posted August 19, 2008 Nope i always run away Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xanatha Report post Posted August 19, 2008 I didn't fight him directly either. But it would be interesting to try. If I maybe could get Edward or Sothe or maybe Volug to a vary high level, then maybe... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xanatha Report post Posted August 19, 2008 Yes i did on my lance only run through, i equiped ike wth an iron sword beforehand then got my 20/20/10 stat/boss abused aran to impale him And what happened? Did you win the battle or did it continue without Ike? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

noremaC Report post Posted August 19, 2008 (edited) i had him support with nolan so he got avoid and had him stand next to a boss that had a low hit rate (the one on the level you first get tormad) with paragon so he got 2 exp a miss, it took about 4 days.

Canas_and_his_Monocle Report post Posted August 19, 2008 Oh lordie >.< That level was just terrible for me, I had most of my units down there and suddenly Ike starts moving >.< It took me 4 tries to get away without anyone dying instantly (I had battle saves). Stupid Tauroneo... Seriously, Ike is like murder incarnate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Knife Report post Posted August 19, 2008 Ike is actually pretty easy to beat. Just have Laura use a Sleep staff on him. You should get him with a 100% hit rate. Though the hardest part of it is defeating Ike in one turn while still being careful of the other Laguz/Mercenaries. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though the hardest part of it is defeating Ike in one turn while still being careful of the other Laguz/Mercenaries. Yeah... even with that trick it's hard to kill him with 4 units (if you surround him) or more if you count ranged units. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SilverSilence Report post Posted August 19, 2008 I've actually killed all of ike's team on my easy mode run. but i used battle save abuse to get an average of 4 or 5 points on a level up to all members beforehand. I didn't use any other forms of abuse to manage to kill Ike's team for this mission. I also didn't have any tier 3 units yet on Micaiah's team. My Ike's team had 1 or 2 tier 3 units and a few units almost stat capped. It's definitely humanly possible, just very dangerous. The exp was somewhat rewarding though. During the missions where Ike Vs Micaiah or vise-versa, feel free to kill anyone on the opposing side. the only potential concern would be the other team's weapon utilization.

xanatha Report post Posted August 19, 2008 Are you using meatshields or not? Using other units as meatshields help a lot. I know it's a good idea, but I would feel a little bad about sacrificeing the others. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DragonBladeSniper Report post Posted August 19, 2008 I know it's a good idea, but I would feel a little bad about sacrificeing the others. You could use prepromotes as meatshields so that they don't die. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Florete Report post Posted August 19, 2008 I've killed Ike, but usually not the others. Laura's/Micaiah's sleep staff works wonders on him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xanatha Report post Posted August 19, 2008 I've killed Ike, but usually not the others. Laura's/Micaiah's sleep staff works wonders on him. But Micaiah can't step outside the green line. Does she reach anyway, or do you wait until Ike moves? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
