Dont worry about doubling in conquest lunatic, its not important on non sweeper units. The best tank weapons in the game (dragonstone, nos, 1-2 range mele varients) cant double period. nhorian royal line skills + whatever, the level 15 skill gives you 5 freebies regardless. astra is bad.

Fair point and appologies

Yeah its doable blind if you've played fire emblem way too much. (Rip my life) If you want really clean feeling clears on the maps you will wind up resetting quite a bit (the longest one for me was ch17, its really easy to turtle through but getting a clean efficiency clear took me like a day and a half of scouting/routing/attempts). If you're fine with just slogging through the resets aren't bad at all. Fair warning: Conquest is absolutely nothing like birthright. As for corin I would go +def or +mag with draco or diviner as her talent with a luck flaw. Draco allows for some really abusable early game tricks and has some of the best skills in the game. Diviner is utterly useless to her but it grants kana/other kid access to broken exp gains with nobility+exp luck skill stack and you dont need to kidnap a rally magic user. Edit: Protip: use odin and arthur, even if they fall off in your run due to deployment constraints they still make 2 of the best kids in the game and give big big utility (also ophelia's paralouge gives semi-exclusive access to some of the best tomes in game)

I like how people are posting a slew of birthright weapons in the conquest thread

Irons/thunders/javalin style weapons, effective weapons,lategame nos forge if you don't kidnap/breed a rally magic user, and an early steel axe forge on camilia/arthur it lets her ohko with rally str when she finally comes off full support duty in the midgame for fast rally def access (read:not pairup, just a support role) and lets him get early rally str to somewhat break the midgame (namely the ninja basement, flat ohkoing is huge there on higher difficulties if you dont want to turtle forever)

Conquest is true to its split description, throws the book at you and gives you the tools to manage it on the difficulty that matches your skill as a player. Its honestly the best route by far in terms of gameplay. (revelations is a good game but the maps can feel slow and clunky at times, and birthright is a joke, but its still fun, oni lady is waifu)

yeah she also screams "only dancer in the game"

Yeah voice of peace bows+rallys is really great utility.

Or, you could dance a real offensive unit and stay in that sexy noncom exp pool to make a better smurfboy Edit: on the note of bersekJUSTICE, rally str is pretty indispensable as you cannot get rally mag outside of kidnapping/avatar skillset/very late game. (ngl I've started runnign diviner talent on corin just for rallybot utility on kana/other kid)

yeah the black knight was pretty much worth every other enemy on that side of the board combined, and ike was cannon stronger, and he got multiple free units stronger than he was. Including godsdamned mufasa. It was like a board with one queen and infinite pawns facing down retarded cousin ted's board of 20 superqueens made of 17 queens duct taped into a tower Probably the "worst" odds canonicly are endgame (new) mystery of the emblem/(i hate to say it) awakening. Edit: mystery/awakening was a case of gameplay matching plot....badly as the hero's of both games were effectively going on a suicide mission...that anyone half decent at the game flat out 1 turn rolls.

JUSTICE

Yeah I cant read moonrunes so that's flat out imaginary unicorn land to me.

On the note of invading hoshido vs civil war, can we keep in mind that hoshido has a full blown genocide boner for nohr that isn't going to go away just because nohr calls "time out we need a civil war". "Corin kills people" its a war "Omgyuinvadethepeopleyou'reatwarwith" its a war Its still a bad plot but its a fe game and honestly bad plots come standard. Hell its honestly better than birthright's sadly enough (hey lets go kill everyone you ever loved and raze your homeland to the earth, ok I have no problem with this just dont kill them hard stranger I just met"

I honestly never felt "helpless and shitty" just an overpowering urge to kill (almost) the entire hoshidan royal cast (even in their own game), but yeah back to corin... self inserts are not good sympathetic protagonists.

All of it, this game has so much small detail polish. If I had to chose I would say odins bulge, sorry but in his david bowie spandex its just hilarious.

As badly written as it is at times, yeah that's pretty much how it works when someone with a hardon for public executions come into power. To be completely fair to the royal siblings, apparently they acted against the king...constantly, jut in ways that don't get them hellmurdered with a hans in their place. Its no shining hero wow, but its pragmatic and effective.

Ryoma dies real good if you just park a dark mage next to him, pitch a dagger, position camilia for rose, and smack him in the face with dual club arthur, a high str muscle woman with a forged lance/steel lance, or a triggered silias (any of the above is a flat ohko on any difficulty) there's plenty of time to get every kill and chest in 12 if you abuse the dragonvein and the staff user top right. Also ch 15 conquest annoys me, its a cool map and the obligatory level the lord map. but it so slow and clunky compared to the rest of the game. (birthrights joke difficulty level even on the highest setting also bugs me, but its still a fun game)

Why are people till getting upset over FE plots all leading to "capture x country hold hands sing kumbyah kill evil darkness" Characters make the story and conquest has some great ones...(nohr is totally evil look at how evil they are with their evil...who is...oh god JUSTICE!!! NOOOOO rip lord lobster 2016)

+def - luck you'll be fat af and its not like you cant swap over to sword/tome whenever. I honestly find myself using dragonstone almost exclusively on higher difficulties the swords/tomes are mostly good for triggering unique skills by killing the hell out of corin x.x as for kana' eventual mom jut grab somone with a +mg modifier reclass option set to draco/cav/bird always

Sure And yes he's fodder

Oh thats right on track then, just make sure to give him a fast waifu with a half decent damage passive for ophelia and you're golden. nyx is pretty much there just in case odins darkness isnt very dark at all

Nos odin pays for himself when you get the villages in his daughters paralouge (calamity gate, horse spirit, spirit dust, lightning). Its a solid invest. past that just spend conservatively. It also nets you a 20/x ophilia and THE ULTIMATE MAGIC. He's also pretty good as a unit in general. Nyx is cool and I legit enjoy using her but...she's not ophelia. That said unless you have odin rolling with nos in ch10 he may be too far behind to catch up so nyx may wind up as the better option. its also worth getting one enfeeble staff when they pop up but sans that just pinch your pennys.

step one, level to high 1x/20 step 2, buy master seal step 3 you have a good bow knight

No you dont need to reclass everyone is pretty great at base though severa is better as a bird and camilia likes to make a quick trip to wyvern lord to pick up rally def. Peri has her unique to offset her late join and is a pretty good paladin, laslow is painful though. Child recruitment order is mostly based on your deployment slots and the curve you want to hit rather than skills, the kids main boon is they start with absurd base stats rather than skill eugenics.

Honestly it took me about an hour to beat ch10 lunatic with all villages no deaths, and another 4 or 5 to get a really elegant and clean feeling route because I'm a perfectionist. Its easily my favorite chapter in any FE now though bar none. So well made n_n. (hell its got meposting here x.x) Anyways grats man.
