    The bird monsters.  Also the golem ones, like the ones in Rhea's paralogue.

    Alright cool I just found a birdy.

    Here's a list for reference as to which guy drops what (auxillary battles that give ore also drop these)

    • Umbral Steel - Demonic Beasts (all types), Dragons
    • Wootz Steel - Wolves
    • Mythril - Birds, Golems
    • Agarthum - Giant Crawlers, Titanus

    Smithing Stone and Black-Sand Steel are buyable from merchant (ch. 5); Arcane Crystal is buyable from dark merchant (ch. 15).

    May be missing a few but these covers the main types.

    Yeah I knew about Umbral Steel and Wootz Steel but I was unsure whom dropped mythril. I remember reading Golems dropped them but I just wanted to make sure.

    This is normal in maddening. 

    Byleth needs sword breaker and forest tiles to dodgetank. 

    I don't have sword breaker on my Byleth and managed to complete the map without much problem. Although you have to use the forest tile for the extra evasion.

    Claudes Gambit is your best friend here.

    Does Darting Blow prevent enemy doubles, or does it only affect your own attack doubles when you attack first?

    It will prevent doubles as long you were the one that initiated the fight and have atleast 4 AS more than the enemy. Which usually happens considering 6 points in speed is equal to 6 points in AS. 

  4. I just beated chapter 13 on GD. Now I have sort of prepared myself for this chapter since I mainly use GD students but when I got here I didn't have that much of a issue. Can't say how I would fare if I went into this unprepared or if more importantly my students being under leveled. I found the couple of first turns be the most tricky because of the nature of RNG till the rest of the students arrived. Like fuck off when the enemy repeated hits especially with gambits that have hit-rates between 30-40s while My Byleth miss most of his 80.

    I also now know why people consider Claude personal Battalion be the strongest. 1-3 range and have huge AoE. It definitely saved Byleth from being overwhelmed. Now I'm interested how it will be when I'll tackle this map again in AZ and SS.

  5. I read that Hilda and Cyril Paralouge are the only pre-timeskip paralouge that can carry over to after the timeskip, is this true?

    Also what are the full rewards for completing it and somehow saving all the green units? I mainly just want to have Hildas Hero Relic.

     

    edit: nvm I managed to complete it by saving all of them and you get Extra Large Bullion and Hexlock Shield by saving them. Boy this was a hard paralouge.

    How does the DLC affect NG+? If I bought a DLC on NG+, and used the items in that playthrough, will I be able to get the items again on NG++?

    All DLC items will be available again as soon you have access to your own room in the monastery.

    How has Raphael been doing for you? Because with his lackluster performance in hard, I'm not sure I'd want to give him another chance on Maddening...

    Very inconsistent. He was somewhat useful in the beginning as semi-tank and was blessed in strength so he hit like a truck. However, because of his atrocious speed and his strength became more average by the mid-game he fell off real hard and fast. He simply couldn't keep up. I just finally managed to make promote him to Grappler and with that 8 or 9 points in speed and and several in res tells me how RNG screwed he was.

    It is a real shame I really want to keep using him especially as a War Master but that speed is really holding him back. Also his average defense haven't winning him any favours either. Currently 15 in defense, beating only my Byleth while most of my frontliners have 17+. At least he will be an awesome defense adjutant but I dunno if I should keep leveling him up now that he have reached level 20 considering chapter 13. He will be under leveled for sure but I hope by that point he won't be dead weight.

    At least my Ignatz was by far my least liked and weakest unit since he was sooo weak early game, doing single digit damage most of the time and was designated rally bot. However, his performance have come around, finally. He can do more reliable chip damage especially against axe user as a semi-dodge tank as an thief/assassin.

  8. Currently doing the mission of chapter 9 on GD and honestly it has been fun. Probably more so compared to when I played CF on Hard. Toughest was the beginning for sure but ever since I got the units to intermediate classes it been a good challenge which I enjoy. Only got two paralouge left (Catherine and Hilda) which I'm saving for chapter 10 most likely and I'm now curious how hard the infamous chapter 13 will be. Finally managed to Raphael and Ignatz to their advance classes.

    I think they need to learn in the future that lack of a preparation menu before any chapter is unacceptable.

    I think the main reason they did it is for thematic and story reason, not for gameplay. In one way it's a bold move and I like it, but at the same time it is extremely frustrating.

    Maybe not two new ones, but I think it'd be neat if we have a flier that could only use faith rather than both magic. I don't know, I kinda miss having staff users on wings.

    Problem is with the current magic system the class check if you are allowed use magic or not what school of magic it is. While a white mage falcon knight is awesome but because of the game mechanic you will be able to use reason magic.

    Either way my biggest wish-list like many have already said that involves magic flier of some kind and a class where I can utilize Eldelgard Reason magic as her unique class. Oh Halberdiers would be awesome as well.

  11. Just a thought when I started to think about Griffin Riders. Have them wingless so basically Gold Knight or whatever the upgrade for Paladin but you are on a wingless Griffin instead. Another possibility have Griffin Riders have access to magic since iirc the wyvern that Malig Knight have are undead and the undead doesn't really exist in TH setting.

  12. I'm currently chapter 7 on my GD route on maddening. I'm wondering when it's the best time to recruit Petra since I plan to have her as one of my main dodge tanks and eventual replacement for Ignatz. Also I'll probably have Petra be an assassin this time around and not making her a Wyvern Lord. Another thing I'm considering making Petra my Dancer since I heard good things about it. Also that I have no idea whom I want to make my dancer this time around...

    I also know I'll probably snag Ingrid when I'm closing the end of part 1 unless it will be more beneficial for me to get her early. She will stay as Pegasus/falcon knight.

  13. I'm currently playing GD maddening and chapter 7 currently. Oh my boy Ignatz is strength screwed beyond belief. After 15 levels he only got a couple of points in strength. Boy it's annoying he can't do any damage what so ever but he's speed blessed but useless considering he hits like a wet noodle. Good thing i made him a rally bot but I don't know what to with him. I hope seal strength budding talent will make him more relevant.

    Ironically Raphael have the opposite problem although not as severe since at least he have gauntlets and hits like a truck thanks to his strength.

    They give renown for completing quests, which can be nice. You won't get much EXP on combat units, but you still get skill and class EXP, so you can use them to clear up some lower level classes you haven't mastered yet or similar - and support units still get full EXP for heals/dances etc.

    That's what the gold maps are for thanks to our best friend the bishop that will be yours truly the punching bag. Even better when there is a healing tile for the bishop. Plus money is a plus.

    I guess main difference is the renown.

  15. If you planning to keep the inhouse students you could try and make Petra into Falcon Knight or Assassin instead for WL. I'll try this out next time since for a dedicated mage killer/dodge tank since I found my Petra WL serviceable yet lackluster. I would at least suggest try out War Master Caspar but I have to agree he is very slow burn and needs a lot to grow before. If nothing else make him into a def adjutant for which is really helpful against enemy follow ups. Another possibility is to make Felix into War Master instead since he has proficiency in brawling. Or go into Mortal Savant for shit and giggles.

    edit: Also get Catherine and make her into Falcon Knight is also a possibility if you want another flyer.
