Sword of Seals HM Casual

[PKL]

Wow, you're getting some rather nice level ups. That never happens to me when playing this game.

Don't jinx it man.

I hope you're planning on using a healer long-term despite not having gotten one picked for you...

Yeah, probably Elen/Saul until the great Niime comes.

[dondon151]

It still messes up the save. This time, it's the stats. Is there any way to fix the save or should I just redo Chapter 1?

if gringe used FEditor, it's probably due to one of the FEditor autopatches.

[PKL]

[spoiler=Chapter 3: Late Arrival]

Zephiel is such a douchebag. Should've died in Night of Farewells. Brunya is cool.

Hector NO ;_;

Chad joins. He's useless in combat, but I will use him to loot stuff.

Too bad he dies...I wonder how this game would be with a competent lord like hector?

Lance is doing amazing!

Marcus may be old, but he's still strong!

I'm surprised Lance hit those 2 hits with 48 hit. He's the best.

That ain't Lucius. Also, I don't get what Lugh is saying about not running away anymore.

So, are you gonna do well with speed too? Sheesh. This run has been very kind on the levels so far. I'm not gonna use Allen longterm though.

Lance gets another kill with relative ease...

Meanwhile, this guy here can't into hitting stuff even with Weapon triangle advantage.

And then there's Deke, who cares not for silly things like weapon triangles

Then there's Marcus the BRO

Elen heals Lance because he needed it

I'm a genius, don't you agree? ...yeah, I fail at this game.

Deke the mighty weakens this guy in the enemy phase

Roy lures this one and weakens him in EP

The archer actually missed. I guess i'm not the only one falling victim to high hit misses

Wolt chips the soldier Roy lured, so Roy can kill him. I don't trust an 86 anymore in this game, so I decided to use Rapier instead.

Lott freaking fails at life

Deke is great.

Shanna softening up this soldier

Ok, whatever. You can both be benched forever.

Well, shit...time to improv

Lance dodges this soldier but it wasn't neccesary. There's 2 soldiers that I couldn't get rid of though, but I have a plan

Chad trades his stuff to Shanna and Shanna to Chad so that they can't counter the first soldier and die (since he has 4 HP)

Now I can have Elen heal this useless guy safely so that he doesn't die thanks to the Chad/Shanna wall

If they had stayed, I'm pretty sure FE6 would only have 3 chapters.

These guys are the worst

Chad for best wall

This is the first time an FE mercenary does well for me.

Marcus recruits Lugh and he gets his first kill

Their equipment is back where they should be

And Shanna gets a kill

L o L

He missed one of the Javelin hits

The soldier misses Lugh thanks to the forest and Lugh retaliates.

Alan actually doesn't double loldiers wtf

Shanna gets another kill. She's actually not that hard to use in HM like I was told IMO

Lance gets another kill.

Elen heals Roy just in case

Alan missed this guy

SO FAST

The soldier missed Lugh again even though Lugh left the forest tile

Lance keeps killing everything, holy shit

Lugh finishes the loldier off

Alan actually doesn't miss this time

Deke finishes another guy off

Oh yeah, these reinforcements are kinda annoying. They spawn from the east part of the map, where the boss is. It's nothing Lance can't handle though

I guess these hits have to happen eventually

Oh, right, I'm a pro, so I rescue chain Lugh to the action with Marcus, Wade and Lott

Even the best need a heal from time to time!

...I give up. I'd rather not give any more kills to him.

Deke and Lance tag team one of the cavaliers and Lance prepares to lure the next wave!

Lugh is dropped here so that he can chip the Javelin cavalier...

Yeah, I'm still treating this AI like the FE12 one. Derp.

Not a bad first level

Elen the best.

I rescue her with Wolt and had Chad drop her out of range of the Javelin cavalier

Lance <3

Lugh gets another kill thanks to Lance

Marcus "chip" is best chip

I'll keep trying I guess...for now. One more lame level and I won't bother feeding him anymore, though :V

Lance weakens another dude for Shanna

Lame

Since Shanna missed, Wolt had to kill him. WTF @ this level though

Lance practices his lance twirling a bit.

Oh, look, another above 80 miss.

This guy has way too much def to be an earlygame armor. It's kinda lame. Lance doesn't care and just wants to skewer things though. It's funny how the lance is actually penetrating all the armor and looking lethal, but it only does 1 damage.

Just.freaking.die.already

Yeah, that's more like it.

Rescue dropping Lance closer to the action.

Marcus reaches C Swords! Oh yeah

He has as much speed as Shanna now wtf?

Deke ORKOs Fighters, he's kinda awesome

I have people rescue Elen and Lugh closer to the action

[PKL]

[spoiler=Chapter 3 Part the 2]

Marcus is still almost ORKO'ing everyone <3

Eh

EHHHHHH

Another one of these lame-o's

The Iron Sword broke

Roy is so bad

Lugh is best armorkiller

Shanna takes one of her bosses' swords without permission so that Marcus can use it to finish off this guy

It's ok, Deke will kill you.

If the RNG isn't lame and he stops missing, that is

Elen heals him and she gets rescued away from the action

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Lott can actually hit!

...armors

Final enemy of the map is gone

It's time for Chad to loot stuff! And Elen gets a nice level

So slow

I think that would actually get Roy killed, what with Hector having all that armor

Bla bla story stuff

Wyrmslayer? Dragonpike?

Hector NO ;_;

RIP

[ZemZem]

FE6 gets rather axe heavy for a few chapters during mid game, so Roy should get some levels from there later.

Ah, yeah.

Also, is my commentary getting better? I felt like Ch1 and 2 were pretty weak.

[ZemZem]

I always liked it, so keep doing what you're doing.

[X-Naut]

If they had stayed, I'm pretty sure FE6 would only have 3 chapters.

If you kept that 24 Skl/15 Spd Marcus those 3 chapters might have been fine. (unless he has something like 11 Str)

Is it necessary to post every little thing? We don't need to be reminded every three or four screenshots that attacks miss often in FE6, it gets very repetitive and drags out the post. You could stand to trim the fat a little, especially if you're going to post dialogue too.

I like to rage about hitrates, sorry.

My obsession with detailing everything comes from my screenshot LTC playthroughs. I'll put a poll in a few moments.

[Irysa]

You can trim without removing EVERYTHING. Where's the middle ground? <_<

I ask for animations off so we can see where your stuff is more.

Well, Lott is actually not bad...

In compare to the rest of FE6 cast. Better thab Ray, Sophia, Dorothy, Ward...

[Elieson]

Dorothy has her uses. Shes not thaaaat trash, just in terms of efficiency.

[BBM]

Ray isn't that bad either. His offensive growths are actually pretty decent- he just starts in a bit of a rut with his bases, and fsr doesn't get HM bonuses. And unlike Niime, he doesn't have to worry about getting OHKOd while Nosferatanking. I'd probably still give the win to Lott for earlygame Knight/Cavalier blicks, but by no means is Ray (or Dorothy or Ward for that matter) in the same class as Sophia.

[Nicolas]

Well, I didn't want ro say that Ward is as bad as Sophia. I just mention unit worse than Lott.

[dondon151]

if you want to rage about hitrates, dump a bunch of miss screenshots all at once.

[Espinosa]

I'd prefer Dorothy over Lott personally.

[Irysa]

Dorothy is arguably more useful than Lott early on but I think her long term usage kinda screws her. Lott has a chance to halberd mounted units or hammer knights (Admittedly his hitrate for both of those is fucking awful though...), and is quite beefy in defence for a fighter to supplement his big hp. Dorothy has those 3 wyvern riders in chapter 7 and probably needs to be fed anything else.

Good idea.

Yeah, at least Dorothy can hit.

Wade is pretty awful, but yeah, he's not nearly as bad as Sophia...

Ray isn't that bad either. His offensive growths are actually pretty decent- he just starts in a bit of a rut with his bases, and fsr doesn't get HM bonuses. And unlike Niime, he doesn't have to worry about getting OHKOd while Nosferatanking. I'd probably still give the win to Lott for earlygame Knight/Cavalier blicks, but by no means is Ray (or Dorothy or Ward for that matter) in the same class as Sophia.

Ray would be cool with HM bonuses. 9 base spd kinda sucks though. Though, I think Ray is better than Lot personally.

@ Irysa- but Lott is more awful than Dorothy in the longterm...isn't he?

Dorothy gets access to better bows when in use. Killer/Brave/Silver are all possible in more casual efficient play. Lott is most likely stuck with steel during later maps, if not iron. Then there's promotion item competition...

Not to mention that (IIRC) every map after awhile spams mercenaries and sword cavaliers.

[Irysa]

Nah sword cavs are basically nonexistant in this game. If you go Sacae though...

If you really focused on her I guess Dorothy would outdo Lott later just by merit of her class. The one time I used Lott he was actually the tankiest unit on my team (80% hp 40% def) and was really good at just walking over to one side of the map and never dying, but that was kinda a def blessed Lott so I'm probably overexaggerating how tanky he can be.

Also I don't see how Lott isn't getting to Killer Axe use, unless you mean he's stuck to Iron or Steel bows.

*joins the club* Sure, being an archer sucks, but as far as this game goes, I'd rather have an archer over someone who's stuck with axes when the most accurate axes have a mind-blowing 65 hit.

[Espinosa]

Yeah, I was talking about bows specifically.

If we imagine Lott talking a lot of experience and Dorothy doing the same, then Lott wins due to having an EP durability and combat with Hand Axes. But if we argue team w/ Dorothy vs. team w/ Lott, then I think I probably want the one with Dorothy.

[Elieson]

And lott's durability is totally worth the first two hero crests, compared to Dorothy...?

I guess. But for one, hand axes aren't reliable in this game because lol50hit. Second, Lott's competing with Rutger and Dieck for Hero Crests - and he flat out loses there. Granted, Dorothy doesn't have it much better, though.
