  1. I was on another fire emblem website (fireemblem.wikia.com to be more precise), and it said on its article on the First Dragons that Anankos is the true identity of the Dawn Dragon of Hoshido and the Dusk Dragon of Nohr. I have played through all of Birthright, Conquest, and Revelation, read the ancient texts in My Castle, and played Hidden truths 1 and 2, and I haven't read or seen anything in Fates that supports this (if anything the reverse), so, did I miss something? Or is that other fire emblem site incorrect?

    Honestly I'm wondering if this is rooted in a mistranslation from early on when it was released in jp, similar to the incorrect translation that implied Azura was Anankos's daughter. The statues and symbols for the Dusk and Dawn Dragons don't resemble each other or Anankos in any way I can really see. Not to mention I can't find any sources for this information. I haven't combed through the JP translation for Hidden Truths, I'll get back to you when I'm done if there's anything relevant there.

  2. So I am on the final chapter on Conquest and Azura died, so I reclassed Elise to Maid so she can reach S rank in staves(Bisfrost); how long will it take to go from A to S? I don't want to reset lmao...

    Honestly? If you don't have an arms scroll you're gonna have a hard time not getting blown up after that many hundreds of turns. And there's a limited amount of dragon veins you can use to block the boss's area attack, so I suggest resetting

  3. 1. Some backstory on the Garon's, Sumeragi's, and the unknown knight's journey to the Sevenfold Sanctuary

    2. Maybe some information on the kids that died during the Concubine Wars?

    3. More dark tomes (even simple things like Flux, Ruin)

    4. Female Grandmaster when

    5. I think it would be really cool to include enemy-only weapons from past games. Like Naglfar, Alondite, Loptyr, Eckesachs. Hell, Expiration would be incredible (all these would need to be nerfed like hell though)

    6. I would kill a man for a Queen Ekaterina story. Or voice. Or even a portrait I'm desperate over here

  4. As far as I know the method you mention is the only way you need two 3DS to streetpass since the Castle Code is tied to the 3DS.

    Did you remember to enable "My Castle" on the second 3DS, setup your units for my castle and hit Update Data?

    Did all that and it kinda worked? i can visit my own castle via the different address tied to the 2nd 3ds but nobody shows up on the Plaza. Oh well, either way i get a method to build my Corn Army.

  5. Has anyone tried to streetpass themselves yet? Were you successful? If so hoe EXACTLY did you go about doing it? I've done the standard (enable streetpass, swap cart to different 3ds, enable streetpass there, return to 'home' 3ds) and have had no luck

    On a related note, has anyone had problems getting visitors to show up at the Traveler's Plaza regardless of streetpass notifications from the orb?

  6. Another update on my Avatar Log question, specifically about creating an "Avatar Army" in FE: Fates.

    I can safely say that it is impossible to create a personalized Avatar Army using only one system.

    I spedrun through the game again on a different difficulty, as per Frozenkappa's suggestion, to see if that will make any difference, but upon registration, it will still overwrite your previous Avatar character of that gender. Brute forcing the system is not possible as I recruited my previous character and attempted to register the new one in the shop, but the option was greyed out. In addition, as completing the game seemingly just gives you "5 Free Einherjar", I doubt the functionality would be different from purchasing it from the Einherjar Shop.

    So, if you really want to make an personal Avatar Army, you will need a friend or an spare 3DS, but I have a feeling that you will only be able to register one avatar per "Unique Game ID". Otherwise, you will only be able to have a max of "Three Personal Avatars" (One male, one female, and your current active file), not counting Avatars obtained from Street Pass or the My Castle functionality. If you wanted an army of random Avatars gathered from Street Pass and My Castle, this should still be possible, its just that the player won't be able to make a customized army of his/her own.

    Well, this revelation sucked out some of the fun for me as I had some builds planned out for my personalized characters. Guess I'll have to find another way to get them implemented...

    Well thats unfortunate. Well, time to rev up and update my old 3ds and streetpass myself fourteen times. good news is this takes less time than brute forcing it.

    streetpassing still works the same way right? You put the cart in a different 3ds, enable streetpass, save, return cart to main 3ds, travelers found at plaza?

  7. Welp, with that skill, it means that you can run Snipers onto the mountains and away from non-aerial units for safety (although Takumi and his unique Bow do that for free).

    As some of us had mentioned on the 'Shadowban' threads...the only way to get a female Grandmaster (and Lodestar) is by hacking into the game's coding (last time I even hacked was four years ago on a different game and I don't do that anymore). Class exclusiveness seemed to have been removed again, since Awakening. Sky Knights and their promoted classes used to be female only. Also, players that will abuse Magic Counter and Counter with Wing Shield... If that happens then Parity and Nihil need to return since their last appearance in Radiant Dawn.

    I feel like we've taken two steps forwards one step back with the genderlocked classes. Like you said, Sky Knight are no longer female locked and Dread Fighter/Berzerker are no longer male locked. However, now the new dlc classes are genderlocked; witch and great lord for females, ballistician, vanguard, lodestar, and grandmaster for males. the thing that irks me is that there are twice the amount of male-locked classes than female locked classes, and as such twice the amount of available male locked skills (with the exception of some overlap between vanguard and great lord). I want Ignis and Rally Spectrum for my ladies and Awakening for my dudes dammit.

  8. Wing Shield, that would be the same as Lotes Shield that returned in Awakening that nullifies a Flyer's weakness to Bows, correct? If that skill returns, flyers can freely roam the skies, until they take an unlucky skill and critical-hit directly.

    Yup, Wing Shield is basically Iote's Shield WITH the incredible added bonus of having terrain affect fliers. So you can fly up a mountain and park there for that 20 avoid and 2 def. Hoping that if Roy's amiibo gets compatibility with Fates that we'll get a dlc for his class (if he gets a unique class). Also really hoping for some method to get a female Grandmaster but I realize that is highly unlikely. Anything to balance out the ratio of female exclusive classes/male exclusive classes.

  9. Is there a possibility that more new classes could be released in DLC, in the future, or is that not gonna happen?

    It's a possibility. I for one am hoping for more female classes to even out the far larger number of male exclusive classes. Also praying to whatever gods are out there that we get Wing Shield from Dlc.

  10. Just an update on my question regarding the Avatar Log and making an "Avatar Army" in the hopes someone will find this useful.

    When registering your Avatar, your amount is limited. I believe it is separated by gender, so if you have one already, you will overwrite your previous Avatar!

    I found this out the hard way by...

    1: Rushing Female Avatar 1 on Normal Phoenix Mode (Branch of Fate -> Chapter 12 Nohr)

    2: Go to Einherjar Shop, Buy Avatar Card.

    3: Go to main file to check if the avatar has been registered.

    4: Delete rushed file, make new file, rush Female Avatar 2 on Normal Phoenix Mode.

    5: Go to Einherjar Shop, Buy Avatar Card.

    6: Go to main file to check if both of my avatars have been registered.

    7: Cry because my first female avatar has been wiped.

    8: Go to Einherjar Shop in main file, buy Avatar Card.

    9: My Male Avatar is separate from my Female Avatar. I think they are seperated by gender.

    This is a shame, I hoped to have fielded at least six custom Avatar units (F!Spear Master, F!Dark Falcon, F!Sniper, M!Paladin, F!Bow Knight, F!Berserker), not counting my avatars from previous runs. At the very least, I wanted my Spear Master and Dark Falcon avatars...

    All I can think of now is possibly brute forcing this method as they will all end up on one file. So, rush the unit, register into the log, recruit the unit on the save file, and repeat. Hopefully this creates a "usable clone" in the save file that I can use at the cost of not being able to use it in other saves. This will take a lot longer than I have originally anticipated...

    Anyways, just posting this here in case anyone else wanted to make an Avatar Army. I hope it proves to be accurate and useful.

    [spoiler=Avatar Army Notes]1: Battle Dialogue

    - Bosses have some grunt sounds when attacking, but are otherwise mostly silent.

    - Einherjar and Generics (Prisoners) are completely silent. This includes Avatar Einherjar.

    - Amiibo and Bond units are voiced.

    2: Maximum Amount

    - You can hold up to 99 units in the Avatar Log.

    - You can field up to 20 units in one save file.

    - When registering your own avatar, you will overwrite your previous registration of that gender. This means you can have a max of two avatars, one of each gender.

    - It seems like you can register other user's Avatars without restriction.

    Perhaps if you have an extra 3ds you can streetpass yourself to recruit the avatar? Just make sure that you update the save file with your "extra" 3ds before streetpassing so it shows up as the desired avatar.

    EDIT: also does this apply to the Avatars you add to the logbook postgame? (the 'pick 5 units for the logbook' thing)

  11. Probably some of my favorite armor designs is (as opposed to Awakening's) it the wyvern lord and maligknight generic armor (emphasis on generic because camilla exists). And while I have a long-held hatred of boob plates, the thing that rankles me most is battle panties. Specifically, battle panties on mounted units. Like the OP, I do a ton of lengthy horse riding and not wearing pants is the best way to have some nasty injuries from the saddle rubbing your fucking skin off. I'd imagine on flying units such as wyverns and kinshis the pain and inconvenience would be even WORSE.

    Additionally, while not the worst offender, the armor for Femcorrin is disconcerting in that, unlike Awakening's example, the armor is different between genders and more fanservice-y and exposed for the female option. This can be REALLY concerning for some people who use the avatar as a self insert and said self insert is sexualized without an option otherwise.

  12. Does castle feedback spread across save files? The only file I have any castle connectivity turned on for is my Revelations file: however when I saved after finishing a chapter in my birthright file the crystal ball updated with feedback clearly from Revelations file visits. Thing is, when I headed over to my Revelations file to collect and update the data the rewards never showed up. Thoughts?

    EDIT: okay this is super strange when I went back to my birthright file and the feedback is gone all together. how strange. (of note the past week I haven't been getting any feedback/visit information despite my battle/visitor points steadily going upwards. Odd)

  13. Eh, if going strictly by personality, most certainly Camilla: after all, its because of sympathetic personalities that she came out as one of my favorite characters in the first place. Protective of friends and family, particularly the younger members (see member title): will resort to violence immediately and with enthusiasm when faced with those deemed threats. Will hold grudges until the stars crumble.

  14. Gosh, I HC my Mamui as more cat-like than dragon-like. Cool to see some people feeling the same way.

    hooo boy I got so much on this kinda thing (most of it is holdovers from general manakete headcanons). Kamui's antlers would get caught in everything after they started growing in. BABY KAMUI CLIMBING CURTAINS. Kamui (and by extension their children) have tapetum lucidum when still in human form. The first time Kamui gets truly frustrated with the Hoshido sibs they hiss at them and the siblings are just so surprised and startled that the argument stops. Kamui ALWAYS must be able so see the sky, even if through a window, because a grounded dragon is a dead one. They can see extremely well in heavy rain (third eyelids yo). You know that head-rubbing thing cats do to claim something/someone as their own? yeah that too. Sleeping in spine-bending positions like please stop you're making your family uncomfortable just looking at you
