It really all depends on what the setting and plot calls for. If the Avatar is, say, a member of a religious sect, he should be able to wield Light magic and perhaps staves. Swords would come next. If he’s a mercenary or soldier of some kingdom, he should perhaps wield lances and then bows. Another royal avatar should wield swords and then light magic. An avatar with a rural setting should have lance or axe and then bow, or vice versa to that. An avatar with a merchant middle class background should wield swords and then anima magic. A city commoner avatar should wield daggers and then bows. 

 

 

I could go on for hours, but you get the point.

If the gothic theme is true, lances and dark sound pretty cool. Even without the gothic theme, I'd still enjoy that combo.

If it is an avatar and you get to choose a weapon, I just hope their prf is tied to what you pick. Was always a bummer that the Yato was a sword. I finally get a chance to play as a lance specialist, and its kind of neutered to play as a class that can't use swords.

To be honest I'd rather not have an Avatar unit, They tend to be over powered. But if it is to be the case that there is another Avatar unit, start off with a Bow, to make it a challenge, then, upon promotion, gain the use of Dark Magic.

Choosing your starting weapon/class would be nice if they do bring an avatar back, but in the case that they don't I'd prefer axes/magic in either order.

Personally I think avatar's weapons shouldn't matter that much unless having a certain kind of weapon creates story implications like Light/Dark Magic, but since this is a vote I decided to go with Axe/magic mostly because I think it's a creative idea, that or maybe something like Lance/Bow. But let's be honest with ourselves, he/she's gonna have a sword.

Ideally I think they should let you pick (didnt they do that with kris in new mystery of the emblem?). I think a bow avatar would be interesting although I have always enjoyed using magic too. I would rather not a sword though since that has been done with main FE characters so much. 

I wonder how people would react to a healer avatar. I am not sure how common this is but some of my friends just never use base healer units and I am not quite sure how they will take there avatar unit starting with that base.

It’s not on there, but I would like to see Dagger. Also wouldn’t mind another sword. It’s done a lot, sure. But you really can’t go wrong with a nice looking sword.

I also would love to see a big war hammer. The kind that Arthas used in Warcraft III. Probably count as an Axe for technical reasons.

Couldn’t really decide between light/lance or light/dark but for voting purposes I chose light magic and lances upon promotion. Daggers would’ve been a neat choice or beast/dragon stones but they’re not available.

if there is another avatar I hope it’s more along the lines of a playable Mark because Robin and Corrin are not avatars (can’t really say anything about Kris)

I'd love to see an axe and bow user since legendary axes usually are the coolest looking imo. also hector is like the only axe lord. Lances can wait tbh.

While perhaps an odd choice, I love the idea of a protagonist that uses a staff in the beginning. Give them a staff with infinite uses or something unique and I feel like it would be an interesting experience.

My wish: can choose any weapon type you desire in a unique flexible class. (But the problem would be their "possible kid" usually sharing their unique class unless said child takes after the weapon type you pick or for fun the inverse disadvantage weapon type to us).

Expectations: Sword primary, unique secondary

I honestly don't mind what weapon they'll get or if its the obvious sword.

I want more off the wall lords. Like say what you like about Corrin, but at least their class was very interesting. Also the list is lacking Dragonstones, Beaststones, Daggers/Hidden Weapons and maybe throw in the Crossbows or Cards from RD for some real crazy stuff.

I feel having the avatar be a healer would be a good idea. It would allow them to fit in the role of the tactician, dictating outcomes from afar and working indirectly. A ruler's power is not in their ability to act, but their ability to get others to act on their behalf, after all. As for their promotion, I think anima magic would be cool, and it made Robin unique, too!
