FE8 prologue rigging is fine because you just need to burn a single RN and its of little consequence. When you start a new game, the RNG is fixed. Including Chapter 1 I think, if you keep playing.

@ Eclipse - Pirate Yubello has terrible growths compared to fighter's balanced growths. Pirate's (HP 100%/Str 30%/Mag 0%/Skl 35%/Spd 65%/Lck 50%/Def 35%/Res 0%)<<<(HP 100%/Str 40%/Mag 0%/Skl 45%/Spd 45%/Lck 50%/Def 35%/Res 0%) < - Fighter's

OMG, u already finished? GG normal mode.

There are people that take no resetting too far...like 13th :/. He doesnt reset if an FE8 draft character dies, its crazy. Also, didnt Intelligent systems themselves say in an RD interview that resetting is a part of the game? I reset when i mess up all the time and come up with new plans/strategies (a recent example would be FE12 chapter 23 in a recent draft, i didnt get silence and had to reset a lot of times, mixing up my approach and positioning to see what would be the safest way to do the chapter. I ended up finding a perfectly reliable 2 turn strat without rigging the RNG at all. And, turns out, if i had taken 3 turns or more, it wouldve been more unreliable :s), if resetting for this is frowned upon then Ive been doing it wrong all this time :/.

Good point. Hadnt thought of that one. I guess he can be salvageable as a fighter in H1. His bases as fighter are: HP 24 Str 7 Mag 0 Skl 3 Spd 9 Lck 5 Def 4 Res 0 Axe E and his growhts: 100%/40%/0%/45%/45%/50%/40%/0%. Im changing my vote to 1/10.

Terrible, horrible, horribad, awful, etc. He is so bad, he fails at being a staffbot too, which normally almost any character can be decent at. 0/10. Changed my opinion because he seems a bit salvageable as a fighter in theory. 1/10

10/10 for warpskip. Instant C is pretty awesome.

Y U no 1 turn 4-E-4? Its like the easiest thing EVAR.

Im against low odds RNG abuse like 1% crits. But consider it fine for some stuff like a crucial hit on a stupid boss on a throne. EDIT: oh and i totally condone resetting for blank levels/rng screwage on crucial characters.

Promoted caeda in C11 and i definetely had to, it was hard as it is with 7 move. TC drop post: stats and details when im on my comp. Chapter 6 - 14 turns, Chapter 6 - 20/free, chapter 7 - 7 turns, Chapter 8 - 6 turns, Chapter 9 - 6 turns, Chapter 10 8 turns, Chapter 11 - 11 turns, Chapter 12 9 turns (got the boots), Chapter 12x 19/Free, Chapter 13 4 turns (parthia caeda ORKOs boss but she cant get there in 3 turns), Chapter 14 - 6 turns. Chapter 15 and up is going to be even easier, what with all the silver/steel bows i bought in ch 14.

Isnt it too early to be giving bishop!artur to horace? :/

Whoa, how did that team ever happen? :o

Unfortunately, once you enter the tower, you cant change skills until the next map.

Why is the second best character in the game being given such low scores? :/

Nah, do it normally or find away around having to rely on a 1% crit...or you know, just take 1 more turn to beat it :/.

Starting chapter 11. Its going so much better once i got out of chapter 8. Should i seal this caeda now? HP 20 Str 8 Mag 0 Skl 13 Spd 20 Lck 18 Def 11 Res 0 Bow C

A 1% crit? Really now...>_>

Am I the only one that noticed how much better eirika's stats look compared to marth's? Its badass, although i dont like that elincia is using spears instead of amiti and that miccy will probably not use light magic...

Chapter 10 2/62 Linde thief'd the Silence Staff. I dont think I need to explain this chapter.

Edward, Nolan and Leonardo.

How is she practically the same as Wrys? She has better base staff rank and better growths. Wrys has an availability lead over her and I think people underrated him though.
