[Help for a Friend]

I'm a fairly experienced FE player but a friend of mine just got into the series with 3H and is having... some difficulties.

He started with the Black Eagles and is having trouble in terms of his characters not doing much damage and taking a lot of damage with the obvious exceptions of Edelgard and Byleth. He's only on Chapter 2 (and I've told him to be patient) but... well yeah. Anyway, I was wondering if the people here could help me with some tips I can tell him to help him out? While I'm good at the game myself, I'm not the best at explaining how things work. Thanks!

[Who's your first 3H Waifu/Husbando?]

So when I first saw the lords I was expecting to like Dimitri the least...

Then he spoke and it was that "Oh crap he's hot" meme and so yeah, he was the first S support for me lol. I'm gonna go through and get the S rank with all the lords eventually but outside of them I'd really like to see Sylvain, Petra, and Lysithea.

[Choose your Legends 3 Heroes were revealed!]

I was going to pick Micaiah anyway but yay! She looks so good! I'm really interested to see everyone's full skill sets 🙂

[Pelleas Character Analysis]

Oh I can't believe I missed this when you posted it!

I've always really liked Pelleas as a character. He's different from most in FE, especially the leaders of countries even when compared to the leaders in Tellius. So I'm glad you did one of him! He deserves more appreciation.

[Favourite of Link's Companions]

If you don't pick Midna you're wrong.

Joking, but really, as much as I love all the companions Midna is by far my favorite, especially as a character. If Zelda is a companion (or playable, even better) in BotW 2 we'll see if my opinion changes.

[Which is your Favorite and Least Favorite Pokemon Generation]

After some serious consideration, I have come to the conclusion that my favorite gen is gen 2. Not for any specific reason, more because I genuinely enjoy most of the pokemon from gen 2. This may also be slight bias as I started with gen 2.

 

My least favorite is gen 5. I played Black, disliked most of the pokemon's designs, and the story in Black wasn't enough to save the game to me. It was the first and only time I didn't buy the different games of the new gen (B2W2) because I disliked the base game so much.

[You can only transfer Pokemon to Sword and Shield if they exist in the Galar Dex.]

I heard the news as soon as it was announced and honestly?

Don't care.

I never transferred pokemon into other gens anyway because I prefer trying out the new ones. I'll still be getting Sword as my biggest issue right now is Dynamaxing and raid battles and those are little issues in the long run.

[breath of the wild sequel discussion/analysis/hopes/predictions thread]

I was going to start this myself but I'm glad someone else did 🙂

So first, I am SO EXCITED! It looks like its using the same engine and models so it's likely that this game will be released far faster than other titles in the franchise which is a big plus for me because YES.

It looks like even if Zelda isn't playable that she'll at least be there with you through the game and helping out so that's wonderful and hey, if she's playable that's a huge dream of mine from Zelda accomplished!

Now! What on earth were they riding in the trailers? Those were obviously not horses. Malice is making a return I see, though that strange green energy was odd and looked an awful lot like necromancy which makes sense considering the MUMMY GANONDORF. There are people out there theorizing that Link might lose his arm in this game due to that scene in the trailer as well as some concept art from BotW where Link didn't have an arm. Also it looks to me like they might be under Hyrule castle or at least somewhere that's connected to it thanks to that last shot and it makes sense as Calamity Ganon rose from under the castle, but what got them to go down there in the first place? Are we going to be able to explore a restored or rebuilding Hyrule? So many questions and absolutely no answers! (Honestly so long as the story's good I'm a happy camper).

[So, E3 is over. What games are you most anticipating?]

Excuse me just a moment while I SCREAM ABOUT THE BOTW SEQUEL!

WTF! NINTENDO! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME I AM BROKE! Zelda has SHORT HAIR SHE'S SO CUTE AND JUST AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

*cough* Anyway this year is going to bankrupt me, it's official. Between Tales, Pokemon, FE, FF, and now THIS? I'm dead.

[Final Fantasy VII: Remake-It Exists!]

I was looking forward to this right up until the announcement that they'll be breaking the game up into parts. The game looks gorgeous and I'd love to experience FF7 but not if I'm going to be ripped off. I want to know what they'll be doing with the whole release in parts thing before I put any money toward this game and if they think I'm gonna spend more than 60 bucks for the whole game they're not getting my money.

[June New Heroes Banner Predictions]

Ahhhh YES, a skippable banner! My orbs are finally getting saved! XD

Really though I'm glad these characters are coming in, they needed to be here and their art is pretty.

There is no logical reason a male shouldn't be eligible for the powers of the Apostle. The first one was a male, after all. I just assumed (with evidence I'm sure is probably there somewhere but I wouldn't have the foggiest idea where) that the Apostles tended to turn up female, so listed Mr Altina as the non-Lehran descendant. I'm writing a story that goes into this topic, I need to pick one.

Altina is female. Just wanted to get that out there. Not sure if you're talking about in like a fanfic or something but in the games Altina is a woman.

[Tales of Arise officially revealed.]

... I was very excited xD I love the Tales series so if it's true and they've really bumped the graphics that much I'll be insanely happy (so long as they maintain good story telling and characters that is).

[May's Mythic Hero Appears - Naga: Dragon Divinity (May 30 ~)]

This banner was kind to me, especially since I was saving. 3 5*s in 30 orbs. No Naga, but 2 L!Tiki and a Hrid and I had neither and wanted both!

I'd happily trade a Tiki for a Naga if anyone got extra though xD

[Special Heroes Appear: Bridal Belonging (May 21 ~)]

CRAP MORE TELLIUS.

Oh well, I can wait on them since my orbs are currently in severe pain. I love all the artwork though, it's gorgeous and the characters are mostly new!

[The Great Grand Hero Battle: Haar]

Micaiah and Ike crunched this map. Crunched it. Brave Lyn was just the overkill icing on the cake. That was fun! 10/10 would slaughter again.

[New Heroes Arrive : Out of Gallia (April 10~)]

CRAP!!

I was REALLY hoping for no Tellius units for a while, my orbs are suffering! :( Oh well. I'll wait and do free pulls and see what I can get.

[Voting Gauntlet: Destructive Forces]

Personally I went with Idunn. If anyone is on her team and hasn't added me feel free to, my code is 9925235353 and my lead is Micaiah though I can change her out if needed. Just let me know if you add me so I know it's someone from here :)

Joker was never entertaining or good to me. I always thought he was dumb and stupid.

Someone who actually agrees with me on disliking Joker! I thought I was alone!!

[What annoyed you today?]

In one word? Family.

For more detail, my dad is an annoying jerk who hates for anyone to disagree with him but especially hates it when it's me or my mom. For an example, today he was talking about how he sprayed weed killer around the house. I asked if he'd sprayed it near where the cats eat, a fair question I think, to which he responded "Even if I did, it wouldn't hurt them". Yeah. My dad's a piece of work.

[April Legendary Banner Expectations]

I adore Micaiah. My orbs would not be able to handle another Micaiah right now so I'm hoping they hold off xD I do usually skip legendary banners though so (unless it's a Tellian) I'm generally more than happy to ignore the new one. I do hope it's someone with few versions though for their fans :)

[Fire Emblem Heroes General Discussion and Links]

I'm now in the process of training up my new Karla, Azura, and Yune!
On a similar topic does anyone have any idea what I can do with a spare Lewyn other than merge him? I already have a great IV Lewyn and while I would like to do merges for him I'm not sure if his skills could suit someone else better.

[March's Mythic Hero Appears!! Yune: Chaos Goddess (March 28 ~)]

I got L!Azura (finally), another Lewyn with crap IVs that I am unsure what to do with, and Yune! In about 120 orbs. Both the units I wanted plus an extra! ^.^

[March's Mythic Hero Appears!! Yune: Chaos Goddess (March 28 ~)]

And just when I thought my orbs were safe to keep saving! *sigh*

I made a promise to myself that I'd try to get all base Tellius characters that I could so I'm pulling green. Also probably blue to try and get Azura.

[March/April 2019 Special Heroes Silhouettes!]

Honestly no idea. I'm hoping whoever they are though are skippable for me because my orbs are currently suffering lol.
Please don't be Micaiah, I don't have enough orbs! xD

[Who are characters you dislike and DON'T want added to Heroes?]

I didn't want Soren in the game but alas... 

On a serious note, I agree with you on Makalov, Iago, and Hans. Also Lyre, as cute as she is she was a trash unit and I don't want people to be tricked into thinking she's worth using lol.
