null Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 7 minutes ago, DragonFlames said: Same here. Never had a good Jill. Never had a good Boyd. Never had a good Oscar. Never had Soren be anything remotely approaching usable in PoR. Never had a good Ferdinand. Never had a good Ingrid. Never really had a Lysithea that reflects her insane growths in Speed especially (meaning pretty much all my Lysis were Speed-screwed). Oof. Boyd and Oscar were my champs in PoR, but I can relate to having Ingrid be crap, especially on hard. Soren as well, actually. But then again mages didn't become really useful in combat until 3H anyway. 7 minutes ago, DragonFlames said: Mias were always insane in PoR (when everyone said she sucks), and my Micaiahs in RD were also great. Tbh, by the time Mia started to get good, I'd hit Ch. 11, recruit Zihark, and never go back to her. But I will use her next time I play through PoR. 7 minutes ago, DragonFlames said: Because my experiences with Boyd especially was nothing but "Miss", "Miss", "Miss", "Miss", "Miss", "Miss", "Miss", "Miss", "Miss", "Miss", "Miss", "Miss", dead Boyd. Both in PoR and RD. Same with Nolan in RD, actually. Wow, uh...oof. Hecking RNG, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrimpica Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I prefer Mia over Zihark mainly because vantage. That means i can get Vantage + Wrath on 2 Grills, Mia and NephNeph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

null Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Of course, when I played on PoR normal, I sucked at FE even more than I do now, so I used whoever was immediately useful to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And oh, hate the Elibe games, which are the fanbase's golden children Relatable. With FE5, I drew the line at "two of your items get randomly deleted if you have too many on Leif and Lithis" thing (also, Chapter 4, which I couldn't beat). FE16 is a tough cookie if its wants to be, most definitely, but in all the good ways (unless we're talking Maddening in which case screw. That.), FE4 is a snoozefest (seriously, I almost fell asleep during the f***ing Prologue), and the Elibe games are meh. I didn't really enjoy FE6, and FE7 is just average at best with a very unmemorable cast (though tbh, that goes for any FE prior to PoR for me).And while we're on controversial opinions for which people will hate me for sure... actually no, I'll say no more. 6 minutes ago, twilitfalchion said: Oof.

And as someone who values a character's... well, character over them being a unit, there was no chance for him to replace her. Ever. 7 minutes ago, twilitfalchion said: Wow, uh...oof. Hecking RNG, I guess. Yup. Axe fighters and cavalry are usually the first things I bench in any FE game if given the opportunity. Though Three Houses kinda changed that. Kinda. I still don't like using Cavaliers or Paladins all that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maniac adds even more enemies, and if there's one thing FE9 doesn't need, it's more enemies. ('Specially since the enemies hardly get buffed, so it's just absurdly slow.)

Constantly. It got to the point where I just bench her immediately rather than bother. 53 minutes ago, twilitfalchion said: PoR Jill could've been great for me if she didn't die in Ch. 17 to a crit from a myrmidon. Uh... What??? How in the name of the Goddess of Mana did that happen??? 56 minutes ago, Shrimperor said: Yeah him. Aran is useless after part 1 I find it hard to use him for anything other than an unarmed meatshield in part 1, largely because I need a sturdy unit for part 3, and he's not around for the first of them. Sure, there's BK, but he requires surviving 5 turns before spawning in, which can be a tall order without one in the first place. . . 4 hours ago, Julian Teehee said: Volug is technically the best tank in 3-13 if he has at least B with an earth unit. After 5 turns, because he's just a punching bag until he transforms. And that's too damn long when I'm under pressure IMMEDIATELY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The challenge is as perfect as I've ever experienced in an FE game. Hard/Classic alone made me love it even more. Monster battles are an absolute rush when your units first encounter them at lower levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One crit with a killing edge later and she was dead. But it was PoR normal (and my second time through the chapter) so I didn't bother going back again to keep her alive. I'll make better use of her when I replay PoR on hard though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benice Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Yeah, I think I'm done with FE9. I did vastly prefer the buffed growths since I actually had to think which made the animations seem less slow, but nah, it's just not for me. Welp, that brings my FE rankings to Berwick>FE6>FE10>FE12>FE8>FE7>FE4>FE9. Now, which should I play next? Maybe TearRing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it was kind of my first, as well, since I played both Tellius games back to back back then, so they're kinda one game in my memory. For me, Jugdral will forever be the region that taught me to stay away from Kaga's games. Edited September 12, 2020 by DragonFlames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
