Grima's implementation is a pretty cool throwback IMO.
It's not in your face, since the name "Grima" is never mentioned. Closest thing is it's a Fell Dragon.
You're meant to figure it out and go WTF.
Also, lore-wise, it makes sense, since we had no idea where Grima came from originally. Now we just need to figure out how Grima took over the Dragon's Table...
It was implied that Alm and co didn't defeat Grima, but merely disturbed its slumber. In fact, it would be pretty amusing if Alm opened the seal for Grima to invade Archanea...

Slightly disappointing, but expected.
To be fair, the maps should be less of a hassle with modern FE's sped up gameplay.
Also, about Chapter 6. It looks like...
First half is all boats, second half is all dungeon. Granted, they could be well made boats and dungeons.

They're all in the game ; )
Items and weapons is next on the agenda.

Huh, so the Triangle Attack takes HP too? Interesting. I'm still a little confused as to how exactly some of these skills work, but that may only become apparent once the game is out. I wonder if some of these show up as separate commands on the main menu or activate automatically.
If it costs HP, you have to trigger it via a menu I think.
Not sure about the defensive skills though.
Passives are passive.
-
Added what gets what skill.
Let me know if I missed everything. As I said, the way they handled skills is a mess.
You may notice some skills haven't been assigned. Skills can be assigned on per map basis, but I'm not going to comb every single map : P

Gimme a moment.

What's SP? How many kills/attacks taken to learn the skill?
It's related to that, yeah.
I dunno how the numbers correspond to in-game though.
EDIT:
Some additional info.
The ultimate skills (Dragon Conquest and True Ragnarok) are unlocked via Alm and Celica's proof weapons (Regal Sword/Falchion and The Zofia).
Godslayer is unique to Falchion (Alm and Marth's), Nosferatu and Binding Blade.
Gonna fill in the rest after dinner.

Shit that's a lot of skills.
That's not even half of them XD
The rest are hidden passives though. Not terribly exciting, I think.

isn't that title a bit of a spoiler
anyway, when we heard there was a chapter 6 I was hopeful but I kept my expectations low at about the level of "some dumb tie in to awakening"
thus, i'm not too disappointed, though I feel like there are so many better things they could've done with an extra chapter of gaiden
It was the best choice I had out of the super spoilery ones XD
Didn't want to mention Chapter 6 and "cameo"/"bonus dungeon" could be anything.

do they show lima the IV
He doesn't have a portrait AFAIK. He and Liplica have a filler Rinea portrait.
He's probably the dude from the trailer though.

I have the list of staff, but sadly not what they do. Somebody will need to play to the credits, I think.

Don't worry about it. Some people are shy. Or lazy. Or both : P
I will add a few more in a few minutes.

@VincentASM, any word on if Mercy still functions as it did in Radiant Dawn?
Same, but better.
Will link to CG selection in the first few posts before I forget...

This should be most of the ones that you can visibly see.
Next update will show what has what skill.

So, thanks to Vincent and his l33t haxx0ring sk1llz, we can get some skill effects! Take it away, @VincentASM!
Haha, give me a few more hours. About halfway done and got dinner in a mo.
Wait, I guess I'll post a WIP before I leave.

OK, this thread is moving a bit quicker than I'd like.
Can you please move comments and discussions to their own topics? Feel free to make new topics if necessary. Don't be shy XD
Right now, there's like 1 topic with active posts in this subforum in the last 8 hours.
If you have questions (or questions to my answers), discoveries, corrections etc, they're still welcome.
-
I think this needs its own thread. Also, feel free to make new threads for important things ^^
Anyway, the contents of Chapter 6 have been determined.
Just gonna copy and paste from the data-mine topic.
Chapter 6 involves you visiting the western half of Archanea, specifically the Feroxi Port and the Thabes Underground Labyrinth. This was hinted at on the official site, where Archanea was briefly visible on the world map. You actually visit that part. Access is via the Archanean Sea Route, 6 locations in all.
Inside the Thabes Underground Labyrinth are 10 floors. Along the way are multiple stone tablets that provide some surprising information. At the very bottom is the super boss "Construct", who's actually...
A proto Grima. It's even a Fell Dragon with a similar portrait to Awakening Grima. Possibly even the same battle music (I've yet to play it).
Apparently Grima was created in Thabes by an insane alchemist called Forneus. He/she experimented with life and death and created the Risen Soldiers and Grima. From appearances, Grima is a Dracozombie infused with divine dragon blood. It is not outright said, but heavily implied.

Just now, Corrobin said:
What skills does the Blessed Sword have?
Nothing. Just passive anti-Terror and auto-heal.
Rule of thumb, weapons with passives have no/few learnable skills.
-
Chapter 6 stuff is fine IMO.
It operates in a vacuum, while Archanea is recovering from war.
Awakening spoilers
There was no backstory for Grima at all in Awakening, which Echoes tries to fix. I think it suffices.
I'm happy Grima is unrelated to the Earth Dragons and it was growing in Thabes all this time.
Also, its connection to Dracozombies and Divine Dragons is perfect. The Plegians even worshipped it as a Divine Dragon, not that you found out in the game itself...

...I'm taking a stab and saying Aether?
Not quite.
Regal Sword: Mercy, 2 consecutive hits, Alm's ultimate skill (14 Might, 2 Range, costs 16 HP)
Falchion: Alm's ultimate skill
On top of passives.
EDIT
Passives are auto-heal for both, Godslayer/Eyeball Seal/Anti-Terror for Falchion

Is there any way to view cutscenes?
I saw thumbnails, so I'm assuming yeah. Movies, right?
3 minutes ago, Anacybele said:Regal Sword? You mean Ike's early PoR weapon? It's making a return? That's kinda cool, actually.
...Well, unless it actually functions and looks entirely different, only sharing the name.
They share a similar name. Alm's came first though XD
3 minutes ago, Azz said:Take your time Vincent. Don;t work yourself into the ground, cause if you do how we gonna get all these leaks?
I am a nice person.
No worries, I want to see it as well : P
It's just the game is a mess when it comes to storing skills. Everything and its mother is a skill. Best skill I've seen is "banned from class roll". Couldn't that have been a flag?!

Do the Regal Sword and Falcion have any skills?
Yes, amazing ones.
Sorry, it's taking a while to make the skill data readable.

I'm really impressed at the in game animations, they look so buttery smooth
I can't wait to see what FE 16 looks like
Joke: Echoes is 16, Fates is 15 and Awakening is 14.
3 minutes ago, King of all Swordmasters said:so what about class growth do we have any info on those
Needs further testing. There are small numbers that look like class growths.
Just now, Corrobin said:Respectively? (Sol lance, Luna bow, Astra sword)
And do they still negate enemy terrain bonuses, have 20 Might and boast an extremely high 50% critical hit rate, respectively?
Yes to first.
They have a lot of effects. Can't say if they're the same or not. You need to check the item and skill data. Almost done with the latter.

1 minute ago, Corrobin said:
Are the Sol, Luna and Astra lances still in?
Yes. They are lance, bow and sword now though.
Just now, Pikappa93 said:What are memory fragments?
Items required to unlock sidestories. These sidestories are events only, not maps. They offer memory scenes like Tatiana meeting Zeke.

Lances, I think. Same with Kriemhild.
