  1. Who is your favourite male and female character from every game in the Fire Emblem series? For games with multiple generations feel free to choose a male and female from each gen if you'd like. For games you haven't played or ones where you don't feel you know the characters very well you may skip. Characters that are recurring in more than one game (ie. Catria) are allowed to be listed multiple times if you so wish. Below is a simple list you may copy and edit if you'd like.

  2. I recently finished playing on Eliwood normal mode and I've heard that Hector normal mode is supposed to be more difficult? I know there are additional maps and unit starting positions vary between the modes but what exactly makes Hector normal mode harder than Eliwood? Do enemies have increased stats, or is it something else?

    I'm just curious as I'm going to start playing Hector normal mode soon and I want to know what to expect. thanks!

  3. I've almost played through the game once now (I am about to start Chapter 30 in Eliwood mode later tonight) so here are my current faves:

    10. Louise: Haven't really used her yet but plan to in Hector mode she seems super sweet and her relationship with Pent is great

    9. Priscilla: Super handy healer and I love the dynamic between her and her brother Raven/Raymond

    8. Florina: Typical weak character to start that becomes good once trained but she's super cute and wants to do her best to help Lyn

    8. Kent: Most people prefer Sain but I like Kent. Super loyal knight with some sweet red hair to boot.

    7. Lyn: Strong lead female at least for her mode which is why she isn't higher. Her crit animations are super sweet and I love her promotion. I really like bow units even if bows aren't great in the GBA games.

    6. Canas: A guy that uses dark magic who isn't actually dark himself he just likes to study it. I love that it shows dark magic isn't necessarily always evil it just depends on the intent of the user  behind it. He has a sweet Monocle too. 

    5. Lucius: Probably my favourite "appears feminine but is actually a guy" type character that is common throughout the series. It was also super refreshing to a use monk that starts offensive with magic and gained healing capabilities later as it's always been vice versa for me in other games I've played.

    4. Nino: I did't use her yet as my Erk turned out super good this time but I plan to try to train her when I play Hector mode. Some great character development and she's just trying to "do her best."

    3. Rebecca: As mentioned earlier I love archers and Rebecca has been super good for me. I also really like her design as it's very different from most other Fire Emblem characters I've seen. Also village girl that takes up arms that takes guts. 

    2. Ninian: What can I say? I'm a sucker for the canon Ninian/Eliwood ship it's just too cute. I also like that she comes across as a rather quiet and shy character which is a nice contrast to most of the cast.

    1. Eliwood: Same as I said above with the ship he is also fairly handsome. He is my fave lord in this game and probably even among my top 3 favourite lords in the whole series. He is very kind and selfless. Even though he knows he's not great in battle he still takes up arms. He also likes to treat everyone as equals even though he is a lord. 

  4. I just finished my Felicia today. I'm not going to bother posting her as she's the typical fury/desperation build, but I'm pretty happy with her. I am moving to to Python as my next merge project.

    I'm also trying to save up orbs for Spring Chrom's return. I currently have him at +5 if I ever manage to finish him I'll be sure to post him as he has a rather unconventional build that I love to use. Plus I have yet to see anyone with a +10 Spring Chrom.

  5. So this is my first time playing through this game so I’m on Eliwood normal mode. I knew ahead of time about the chapter 23 split how it’s either against Lloyd or Linus depending on the total levels of your lords adding up to level 50 or not. I didn’t worry too much about this requirement as I’ve been using all three Lords the whole time.

    I just got to chapter 23 and I got Lloyd’s chapter (I hear his is much harder). I was a bit confused so I checked the levels of my lords...

    Lyn 16, Eliwood 15, Hector 18

    = 49 total not even kidding I missed the Linus map by one level lol!

    I’m up for the challenge and am gonna give it a shot but any tips for this chapter? Any help is appreciated!

    It'll be harder than Eliwood Normal, but it shouldn't be too bad (except Chapter 16x and Sacae).  Throne bonuses give a lot more defensive stats.

    Thanks. I plan on giving Hector mode a shot too as I've heard it's a bit harder than Eliwood mode. After that is when I'll consider giving Binding Blade a shot.

  7. I keep hearing that Binding Blade is one of the harder Fire Emblem games. As a fairly new player to the series I want to be prepared if this is the case. I started with Awakening and have played each game since. I've also gone back and played Shadow Dragon and New Mystery. I am also currently playing through Eliwood mode in Blazing Sword. I also always play on normal/classic.

    Should I be ok to play Binding Blade? If so any tips? I won't be playing it until after I finish Blazing Sword first.

  8. I guess what I'm mainly trying to ask here is in order to play Hector mode (I don't have it unlocked yet) can I split my current save at the end of Lyn mode and use one copy to complete Eliwood's mode first, and later go back to the other copy that's still near the end of Lyn mode in order to start Hector's mode? Or will that save be locked to Eliwood as I started it before Hector mode was unlocked?

    I just want to know if there's any point in splitting my save or do I have to start with a whole new save in order to play Hector mode?

     

  9. I recently started playing this game for the first time and I already know about the three modes. I do have a question about them though. 
     

    Can I duplicate my save before the start of Eliwood’s mode and come back later after completing Eliwood’s in order to start Hector mode without having to start from scratch? I’d like to get 19xx without having to do Lyn mode all over again if that’s possible basically.
     

    My game has no previous saves so I do not have Hector mode available at the moment.

  10. I currently have 149 5 star units. All are fully trained with full kits. Only a couple are missing refines due to not enough Divine Dew.

  11. Definitely Felix for me. The guy originally rubbed me the wrong way with how cold and harsh he could be. I'm also not typically a fan of tsundere type characters. As time went on though he grew on me through his supports. Especially those he has with Annette it is the cutest thing! 

    Edit:

    Oh yeah also Hubert as well. At first I found him rather creepy and "Lady Edelgard this Lady Edelgard that" was a bit annoying. I've also never really liked dark mages in general which is his canon class. As I got to know him though, I really grew to like him even as a dark mage (he was great at nuking stuff for me). His S support with Byleth is also super sweet in my opinion. Bummer you can only get him in one route...

    I am pretty certain it is whoever is the highest in Closest Allies that gets priority in the paired ending.

    I intended to marry Annette and Felix but because I got Gilbert and Annette's highest Support, the game prioritzed their ending over her's with Felix and he ended up with Lystithea, who he also had a max Support with. The order unlocked doesn't matter~

    I feel like this is probably the case as well.

    Funnily enough, I also tried to pair Annette with Felix but I ended up getting Felix with Sylvain as besties. I didn't realize you can end up with friend type pairings (which I honestly don't mind though I thought Annette and Felix would be super cute together).

    Heck I was aiming for all marriages in my Blue Lions run but I ended up with all bestie endings save for Byleth. 

    F!Byleth x Ashe

    Felix x Sylvain

    Annette x Mercedes

    Dimitri x Dedue

    Ingrid - Forever Alone

  14. Now that the game has been out almost two months most of us should have gotten a chance to play a couple of routes by now. So which ones have you completed and which one do you like the most? If you'd like to include some reasoning that includes spoilers please use spoiler tags, as not everyone has seen all the routes yet.

    I've played through all routes other than Golden Deer that I'm just starting now. I liked Blue Lions the best so far thanks to Dimitri's character growth, but I might end up liking the Golden Deer more once I finish it. Only time will tell.

    As for the Black Eagles:

    Spoiler

    I liked Edelgard's route for being a total different take on the story as she's more of an anti-hero, but I didn't like how short and rushed it felt. The Chruch route was ok, but I mainly only liked it as it helped explain Byleth's backstory more than the other routes.

     

  15. I prefer Female Byleth but only just barely. Male Byleth isn't too bad either but I feel rather meh about both designs.


    Like most people I really dislike Female Byleth's outfit. I can't shake the fact that a mercenary would have exposed skin like that. She's just asking to be stabbed by a sword or impaled by a lance right in the stomach. Sure she has some armor but what's the point if you leave large areas exposed anyways? It hasn't been too bad for me though as I mainly use the academy outfit instead.

    I'm also not the biggest fan of her rather large assets. I know it's purely for fanservice reasons, but so many female characters get treated this way. Guess I'm pretty biased here as I have rather small assets personally which makes it harder for me to relate to her as a character. I do like her face and hair though, I know many people don't but I consider her to be fairly cute looking at least. 

    As for male I don't care much for his outfit either though it's definitely better than female's. his face and hair are ok but I'm not the biggest fan for some reason.

    So yeah my vote goes to female but only just slightly. In general though I'm not the biggest fan of either.

  16. Probably an unpopular choice, but for Black Eagles I went with Hubert. When I first started the game I had no interest in him whatsoever since he's a bit creepy at first glance. I grew to love him though. Easily my fave dark mage in the series. I almost feel bad stealing him away from Edelgard as she ended up single in my playthrough, but she did give her blessing according to Hubert. 

    I'm leaning towards Ashe for Blue Lions and Claude for Golden Deer but since I decided to not recruit any students in my first game I don't know the other students well enough yet to make the final decision. 

  17. I recently recruited a couple of the teacher/knight units and am rather regretting it. I'd rather just use the students and I find it annoying how I train them as well while teaching the students whether I want to or not. Can I let them die without any major consequences or am I better off to just to ignore them and pretend I never recruited them in the first place? 

    By major consequences I mean things like:

    • Not being able to talk to them in the monastery anymore
    • Not being able to gain supports/complete missions regarding them in the monastery
    • Any other consequence aside from them no longer being in my roster for map battles basically
