Kakeyo Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 (edited) So we have a million threads on who the best royal is (we even have a DLC map dedicated to the strongest royal), but who is the best retainer? I know there are 16 of them, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve love. :p My top three are: 1. Saizo 2. Odin 3. Beruka What about you guys? Favorite retainers?

nyainou Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Niles because Niles. Also, his support with Leo reeks of homosexual undertones are pretty genuine and its nice to see that side of them. I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tolvir Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Beruka, Selena, Laslow, Odin, Peri, Setsuna, and Arthur are the ones that really stand out to me. All characters I plan on using in the game. Its hard to choose favorites because they are all interesting to me, and have their own reasons for being good units, both gameplay wise and story.

Sunwoo Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I have to go with Oboro on this one. Clearly she's doing something right for Takumi since he actually likes her more than he likes his other support partners, and even though she likes him romantically she's also willing to step down because she thought her feelings were inappropriate since Takumi's her lord. They also have a pretty nice "power balance" in that they can interact more like equals than a purely professional relationship. Again, I feel she's the best retainer because whatever she's doing for her lord to best look after him, it's clearly working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Mage Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 My Top 5: Oboro Niles Laslow Odin Hinata The younger brothers have the best retainers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solrocknroll Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 For the purpose of a list, I'm going to count Jakob and Felicia as Corrin's retainers. [spoiler=length] 1. Niles 2. Oboro 3. Felicia 4. Arthur 5. Saizo 6. Selena 7. Subaki 8. Jakob 9. Peri 10. Laslow 11. Effie 12. Hana 13. Odin 14. Beruka 15. Hinata 16. Kagero (lol) 17. Azama (I forget he exists) 18. Setsuna (I forget she exists too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eriotto Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 You should change topic name for "your favourite retainers" anyyyyway.My top is: 1- Hana (When she fight Kamui at conquest, the thing she says touched me, maybe not really what she was saying however how close she is to Sakura, how she's friend with her and want her to be happy. 2- Niles (Sadistic eyepatch... ARRRRRRRRR) 3- Yukimura (good old Yuki, i like this he's like father for Hoshidian family, especially after Mikoto death. He really want every of royals to be safe, also he want all of them to protect, as well as his country, also he's one of those characters i miss in revelations) 4- Azama - I just like him, also i see alot of potential in him as combat unit. 5- Oboro - I just like her apparence, and her class.... obviously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoshino Sora Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Personally, I'm very biased towards Lazward (because he is dancing Inigo), but my next two are Zero and Setsuna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebony Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Oboro, Laslow, Beruka, Tsubaki, Saizou, and Hana are probably my top favorites as of right now... even if I don't think Beruka shuold be much of a retainer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't looked at many of the supports for the game yet (waiting for Friday) but that does cast Oboro in a better light for me - I never much paid attention to her before. >.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought opposite gender maid/butler + Kaze were Avatar's retainers, but all the maids and butlers could be considered retainers instead - the game never specifies, really. >.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could someone lemme know if I'm wrong? Edited April 2, 2017 by Matt-hue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kativera Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Peri and Oboro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaze Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I think Felicia, Jakob, Flora, Gunter, and Kaze could be considered as pseudo-retainers since they're not ALWAYS Corrin's retainers in the game. Felicia and Jakob depend on gender, Flora and Gunter depend on route, and Kaze depends on support level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
