Rate The Unit, Day 20: Ogma

[Bluedoom]

Dat Rules (borrowed/stolen from Integrity)

- Ratings are assumed to be on Hard 1 Mode.

- Votes need some explanation regarding their gameplay performance to be counted. If somebody else said what you want to already, quote them explicitly.

+/- ≤1 point extra regarding personality/appearance is encouraged, but no more. If you exercise your bias privileges, please do so explicitly. Also, if your vote is already a 10/10 or greater than 9 and you give a full point of bias, The score may not exceed 10!

- Numerical votes out of 10, or something proportional to it. Make it easy to calculate for my sake.

- Every ranking phase ends from 2100 to 2200 EST. Every ranking phase starts from 2200 EST to 2300 EST. Do the math if you are in another timezone!

- I will insist you do not use the "Not X" reason on any character, where X is another unit. If you do, your vote will be thrown out.

- "Recruits X" or "takes you to X chapter" arguments are explicitly banned. C'mon, people, this shouldn't need to be a rule. That's not gameplay performance.

- Assume that the character in question is being recruited.

- Similar to the "Recruits X" rule, do not use "He Comes with a Free Ridersbane" as an argument.

- Rate the character based on his/her performance without the Rainbow Potion, Maturity Drop or Bond Drop

- I withhold the privilege to tell you your rating is bogus and demand you revise it if it breaks any of the above. I will not throw out votes anonymously, you will be informed and given a chance to revise.

Ogma. Where to begin? He's solid for prologue and certainly better than what Draug is doing. Ogma has C swords which means insta-killing edge access, not to mention he hits harder thanks to C swords. You can reclass him to myrmidon to take advantage of a higher spd base and growth. Knight, Fighter and Pirate give him HP growtsh that give him a chance of getting a +2 HP.

He doubles quite a bit in his first few chapters, but 50% spd growth as a mercenary is a little underwhelming. He'll probably want to go fighter/pirate sometime for D axes. A hero with D axes is just wonderful, really.

8/10 + bias= 9./10

Three words: Armorslayer on wheels.

Good sword rank, good growths, and good availability. He can be a bit frail, though.

Oh yeah, armourslayer. Good point.

What Eclipse said already. He can support with My Unit, Shiida, and Navarre to give him better dodge to make up for his tad fraility.

10/10

Perhaps he's not as good as he was in the SNES FE games, but that doesn't take away from the fact he'll probably slaughter everything before they get a chance to slaughter him. Having 25% Defense growth on the higher difficulties sets him back a little.

Still because his availability is really good, and he starts with C Swords...he's still the best Mercenary you can dig up. Most of the others come in too late to really catch up on the higher difficulties.
