Funkfest

I just remembered something. Better Part 4 victory conditions. Routing got really annoying.

1. Mordecai 2. Haar 3. Kurthnaga (I had him almost solo 4-E-3, that's probably why) 4. Shinon 5. Ike

Waht spoiler? Oh well, ignorance is bliss, maybe :3

Um, yeah, question is in the topic title.

Pretty much what everyone said. Support conversations could be improved (Shinon: "Hey, Boyd. You know the rules... No whining on the battlefield"; Boyd: "Hah! Just try and stop me."), and provide at least a bit ov background on the characters (either they cut these out because Heatherxgirl was to risqué, or they were too busy adding a bunch of needless weapons and stuff) Voice actors could be better (Mia's voice doesn't match her at all... Mist just sounds...) It could be a lot more balanced too (More Dawn Brigade chapters, so we can get them on par with everyone else by the time they come back; more balanced growth i.e. instead of Miciah having overkill MAG and RES, let's get her some speed, eh?) Also, some of the parts of the story are just stupid.

So I'm on 3-12, and I have ~14000 BEXP to use. Now, most of my characters are underleveled (Jill is level 1 Dragonmaster, Nolan is only level 3 warrior, Aran is level 11 unpromoted...), and so I'm wondering who to give BEXP to, and how much I should reserve for later. Also, the following people died (This is a No-Reset Run): Edward, Leonardo and Meg.

Alright, so on 3-11 (that really annoying one on the bridge with holes and the enemies with Shine Barriers that make it so you need flyers to get your units over, or wait a long time), I had only two enemies (one a boss, one directly diagonal to the boss) to kill, and it would have been over in 2 turns. If Tibarn wasn't such an idiot and decided to kill the enemy diagonal from the boss by moving right in front of the boss. Needless to say, he died and I have to start all over. And I was almost done too. And I didn't battle save the whole time, because nothing wen wrong up to that point.

Meg is a fast Armor unit. That is good. But she suffers too horribly in the areas that really set Armor units apart - Def and Str. And not only that, she has a weakness to hammers and crap. Hammer + Low Def = Dead fat lady. I'd be alright with her if she didn't get too easily screwed in Str especially, and Def for that matter. And I've never used Oliver. Looking at the average stats, it seems that Oliver has a pretty cool advantage: If he's using staves, he can actually do a bit of damage when countering, something most healers cannot do. And he's pretty average in everything else. Plus he's rich. And he bribed me.' Oliver it is.

He wasn't originally in range. Then, I moved a unit like a space to kill an enemy unit. I didn't think it would affect the movement range, but it did :/ Also, I didn't think that it would hit me anyway.

So, I'm on 3-10 (you know that really huge map where Elincia decides to be stupid and go right up to the enemy unarmed? Yeah), and I make it through the whole chapter, kill the boss and everything, and there's only a couple enemies left, Valtome (or whatever his name is) already fled, and "defeat is imminent" for the Senator, and then a dracoknight comes up and hits an untransformed Ranulf with 26 Hit, killing him. What. The. F. I mean, seriously, I could handle it if it were Ulki or something, but noooo, now I HAVE to restart. I didn't even do a Battle Save (I never do). RAGE. Now, to make this a topic, what are some of your FML moments you've had during the game?

Favoritism makes no-reset runs easy.

What do you do if it's ranked?

Level 12 is still experienced in comparison to n00bs that start out at level 1 or 3. Indeed. But his age and backstory (as far as memory serves) suggests he should be more decent than what he appears as. Remember that Sain and Kent were not exactly new recruits, but they were only (IIRC) level one. But you have a point. Maybe he was going to use the knight's crest, but then decided to retire...?

You know, Est died right after she talked to Marth. Like, right after. I was like YAY EST and she died (Thank you, archers). Now yeah, I have to say, Arran starts out better and he can use silver weapons. Even though he still has terrible bases. Edit: Please delete this double post, I swear it wasn't intentional.

Wallace isn't THAT much worse than Oswin.... ...Assuming you got him to level 20 before promotion and leveled him even more to make up for his late arrival. ...And by then, Oswin is so much better that you'll not even want to level Wallace. ...And even if you do, Oswin will still beat Wallace in every regard except Luck... ...Wallace doesn't even cap defense... ...ok, Oswin >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Wallace.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say either Legault or Heath.

So my rank is looking bad. When I started Chapter 19 my rank was: Tactics: 4* Survival: 5* Funds: 4* Exp: 5* Combat: 5* And now on Chapter 20, it's: Tactics: 4* Survival: 5* Funds: 4* Exp: 3* Combat: 5* I don't know how the Exp rank got so low, it just did (maybe because I ignored all the units on the extreme ends of the stage to preserve my rank? :/) Now I need to get it back up. I'm not concerned about Funds, I have a silver card, although I only have 2400G because I never sold anything, but I'm worried about my Exp rank because I didn't think it was going to be so hard to 5* in the Hard modes (this is my first Ranked HM run). And last time I brought in a bunch of unused-until-this-chapter characters, they died. I could arena abuse, but I'm worried that will end up hurting my Tactics rank in the long run, because I'm not very good at completing chapters fast. Help?

Best: Frey (but you don't get him on the "Hard" difficulties ;_;) Favorite: (well... none of the characters have a backstory or personality, so...) Beck

I usually see it as fair to S-rank Lyn mode while doing a ranked run, since Lyn mode is essentially the prequel to Hector/Eliwood Mode. EDIT: unless you're trying to get to 19xx.

Wat? I don't know about you, but my Dart's speed is always good. In my most recent playthrough (20/19 Berserker), he ended up with 27 SPD. That's enough speed to double most units, especially since he only loses AS from the really heavy weapons, like the Steel Axe, but his 30 STR was more than enough to make up for that. Yeah, his skill and luck ended up only being 15 (+2 luck above average), but really, he didn't miss all that much. And he wouldn't unless you pit him against a sword user, which you shouldn't be doing in the first place. And the S-Rank bonus helps, even though that doesn't come for a while. Yeah, his durability isn't the best, but it's not like he dies easily. Like you said, it's decent. Plus he has a Crit bonus. I personally give him an 8/10, assuming we're not ranking them on their performance on ranked runs, since we wouldn't promote Dart on a ranked run in the first place.

I said only Lloyd and Linus made me say f**k. I took out Uhai in 3 hits with Rebecca + Silver Bow. I don't see the problem here. Kenneth's crit can be migitated with Forblaze. Ursula can be dealt with using Mani Katti or Wolf Bale or whatever. The Reed Brothers are the real problems, since they can both double most of your guys (Linus can double ALL of them), and no one can double Lloyd. Then again, I haven't played HHM.

I've seen Legault take 3 paths, two of which are similar. 1) Open the door, then go to then go to the chests. 2) Open the door, then move back a little (to our left of Darin), then open the chests. 3) Open the door, then move towards the party. (Presumably to get the chest w/ Luna & Blue Gem) But it seems kind of random. Sometimes it seems that even if someone's blocking the door to the Luna and Blue Gem, he'll still go that way. How does he decide?

Yeah, thanks. But what if they use both magic and physical weapons? Will it display Str or Mag... or does it matter? I can imagine the game'll be a little messed up, at least in the information window for the character.
