The idea has merit, but I'm uncertain on the implications for map design and enemy balance. After dipping my toes into Fates maps myself, I'm worried anything the enemies could do involving positioning would cause problems in map design.

When you accept a friend's greeting, you also automatically greet everyone else.

They were. I'd wonder what instalment they'd have appeared in if they weren't in Gaiden originally- outside of Gaiden, Barons themselves are enemy-exclusives in Jugdral and appear nowhere else. Monsters appear only in Gaiden, Sacred Stones and the 3DS titles- and Sacred Stones is famous for lacking monster armours.

Problem is, Gamble affects the pictured Hit (ie with Avoid factored in, capped at 100) and not the natural Hit.

It's the gimmick of the final boss. The four clerics surround him, and if you kill him while one of them is still alive, he'll eat them and get another health bar.

The Mogalls look really... something now. Also, who reckons we'll be able to make out Duma's proportions as a 3D model?

Team Dragon Food: Elice, Nyna, Maria, Lena. ...You know, I think the opposite team (Merric, Sirius, Minerva, Julius) might actually be kinda balanced. If Sirius uses a lance, definitely.

Team Blue-Haired Pegasus Love Interest: Caeda, Catria, Shanna, Tana.

@Arcanite It was an honour serving with you. You may now return to whatever agenda you had with Ephraim before this.

Are the shard quests worthwhile? I don't really level my units up through that method anyway (even if I'm using them for fodder), but I feel like I'm missing out if I don't give them a crack...

Yeah, increasing the reward sixfold is what my best guess was. My next guess is a reward of some arbitrary amount of feathers.

120 orbs, 30 of every great badge, and 30,000 crystals? ...Probably not, but if the next banner is Tana... well, you won't hear me complaining.

Well, did they give us the exact numbers for win/loss in each round? Because I'm interested to hear how many times Camilla alone beat the overall goal- and whether everyone else did at least once.

There are a lot of different kinds of challenge runs FE players do to get the most out of their games- LTCs, Drafts, All X units... and I'm interested in hearing what ways IS could implement a nod to them in a future title, as a way of incentivising other players to give them a try. Obviously, adding a little achievements section might be easiest, but Fire Emblem has typically been a series about direct rewards. The easiest method would probably be a note in the epilogue, but I'm fairly sure there could be some other way. Maybe even tiers of reward depending on, say, if you used grinding or not to complete the challenge.

I'm curious about this in regards to Paper Mario. The two titles are both from IS, and both have gained a complete, controversial overhaul in the 3DS era. Obviously, the overhauls weren't identical (though there are quite a few who'd claim otherwise), but if Fire Emblem was taken out of the equation, I'm fairly positive Paper Mario would get some kind of impact.

...We're metagaming a popularity contest. Something weird happened along the way.

All I can hope is that the banner character I want comes up when the time comes to spend those orbs. I'm confident she will, but after someone forgot to add her in the set, I'm worried... And then I'll come back and stomp Camilla, blue-against-green be damned.

Hey, my Robin (F) got Gronnraven+... after we beat Subaki and I switched to a better Camilla counter.

Well, there goes that point. Actually, from my understanding, I think Cherche is the only unit in this gauntlet without access to bows.

...How easily can Camilla get access to a class that can use Bows?

I'm working on a story concept involving exploring both factions in a war. While there is a clear-cut hero and villain country in the visible conflict, I'd like for it not to be quite so clear-cut. The 'villain' country has some ideas ready-made, but I'm not so confident on how to present the 'hero' country with shades of gray. So far, it's limited to how the nation is conquered in the ending.

...You know, I wonder if I could do an all-pegasus run of Sacred Stones. It'll need a boatload of lances, but I want to stomp on something with Tana.

@Anacybele Don't blame you. I probably would've done so too if I hadn't been incentivised to go into Minerva's team. Plus, it might've made it so accidentally clicking on the Voting Gauntlet option doesn't *Loading* display "YOU LOSE!" text. Speaking of which, I might want to start stomping on things with pegasus knights at some point.

Sadly, you can only hypnotise so many people at once.
