  1. in some cases Volke is better than Mia or Zihark, just as Mia/Zihark is better than Volke in others

    Yep, that's definitely attempting to prove that Volke is better than them.

    I never said I was bragging about resolve, because that isn't strategical skill. It was asked how I was able to kill the dragons with volke, that was my reply.

    Whoever Anacybele is, it isn't me. Nor do I care who it is. Or who you are.

    You are life? Well, I shall seize life by the balls and tell it to shut the fuck up.

    Goodbye, thanks for comin out children. Nice to meet you all!

  2. people please be easy on this unknowing newbie to the series, he just joined 20 days ago.

    sure he might be stupid in saying Volke's 31 attack can breakthrew the dragon's 30+ defense, but i bet he just doesn't know any better.

    surely if we cut back on the insults and take thing slowly, he'll learn the error of his ways

    That is, ignoring the fact I said I had resolve on him eh?

    Newbie to the forum is quite different than newbie to the series. I've played and beaten FE 1-11 a little over 20 times each. My life is strategy. And saying I'm a newbie to it, is pure ridicule

  3. Aethereal, now twice. Notice the Only mentioning my personal experience once was typed Before the other part? It's almost like saying 1, 2, 3. You should try it sometime.

    Denying facts. Hm. What did I deny? That Volke is completely useless, yes. I did. What else have I denied? Go ahead, re-read. Don't worry, we'll wait.

    Disputing facts? Did I ever say that you were wrong about his STR? Not really, no. But he can 2hko a soldier, that is the only thing I will deny, because with a dagger it is very possible. Who was limiting us to a knife? Yes, we can't use a stiletto at the point of promotion, but daggers sure as shit ain't out of the question. If you need me to take a video, or a thousand, of this happening. I would be perfectly happy to do so.

    Everyone's logic is shit at times, you have good days and bad days. We're knee deep in a shitstorm that is called life. Understood?

  4. Snowy, I wasn't wanting or asking you to raise it. I agree with what your rating is. You missed the point, all I have said was he isn't useless. Nothing more, or less.

    I'm not some little kid who has time to explain everything to some thickheaded idiot. Nor do I care. It's just a game, in some cases Volke is better than Mia or Zihark, just as Mia/Zihark is better than Volke in others. That is the main point of everything I've been saying. But yet here we are, in a big argument. Filled with nothing but-- I'll stop myself. Because no really gives a rats furry ass now do they? Life goes on gents.

  5. Kid? Use your resources. Not only am I older than you, but I act at least 30 years older than you. Don't know what shade does? Then you really are as big of a dumbass as I thought.

    Personal experience, I only mentioned my own personal experience once. All the other times, was what the normal experience with the character would be for anyone. Okay, really? He can't 2HKO a soldier? That proves to me how really uninformed you are. 34 health upon promoting? What the fuck was your deal? My little toddler cousin can train his health far past that before promoting without a Seraph robe, and so can anyone.

    Did I EVER say Lethality is a better skill than adept, or wrath? Fuck. No. What I said was this, it gives him an ADVANTAGE. Key fucking word. Advantage.

    Swordsmaster Mia level 20, on 3 seperate save files without Wrath vs Volke level 14 on 3 seperate save files without any skills. Let's see, Volke got 2 attacks on all 3. Mia. 1. I used no stat boosters of any kind.

    Do I even need to explain the rest? I'm sure you could figure it out big man.

    And snowy is stupid? He is one of the only people I have seen that gives well rounded, full complete info on the characters he has done. And at least he can see when he is right, or wrong. His intelligence far outweighs your own a thousand fold.

    And me being stupid is very laughable. If you knew who I was or anything about me you wouldn't be able to piss straight, not that you can anyways undoubtedly.

  6. Understand that most people here measure units on their performance over the whole game, both before they reach their potential and when they reach it, as opposed to performance in just one chapter.

    I do it for almost every chapter too, except the ones that are a pain in the ass to do with only 2 units (chapter 15 and 22)

    Anyways, since you guys clearly took a small comment about a rating and completely blew it out of proportion I'll give it a rest. Fact is, Volke's str is 31 at best, Mia and Zihark can easily get over that. It's obvious, never denied that. But you kids get set in your pigheaded ways :D

    Some people in fact, most people get more and better quality overall use out of Volke, than they do Mia and Zihark. Don't be butthurt kids.

  7. Okay, I'll say it again. I do Ike and -other unit- solos all the time. Seeing how each unit fares against Ashnards army. I do it 3 times for each and every character. It's perfect research for anyone with a brain NewYearsEmoticon.gif

    edit;

    I like how the younger generations have 1% strategic minds and 99% stupidity.

    Mercenary Raven, if you dish out all your BEXP to get Mia to the next promotion, usually around chapter 14-16 if you don't use a master seal, she isn't all that useful, as you already have your main sword user since the prologue, she isn't that useful vs. Volke's stealing and chest opening. I'd say it pretty much counterbalances each other. Yes, she may have more STR. Brawn is not the only important thing in a strategy game, even 6 year olds should figure that one out.

  8. I think you missed the part where I proved that even if his stats were maxed, he does a grand total of 0 damage to Dragons. And Resolve + Lethality is takes 30 Capacity and I'm highly sure that Volke has 25 after promotion.

    Oh. So you're a cheater. That explains everything.

    Just a new cheater, beating it 15 times on hard mode. Well the game gets pretty boring. So I decided to have some fun, I deserve it.

    Just whine about it please? Pretty please?

  9. Couple of questions.

    1. Why did it take you 9 Turns? Pretty sure you can field Elincia and a bunch of horsies/fliers and get Ike to Ashnard long before then.

    2. So... your argument is personal experience? Yeah... that don't fly.

    3. The weakest Dragon has 31 Def. Assassin's Str cap is 23 Str. Strongest knife available is the Stiletto (8 Mt). That's 31 Att. Volke's one support with Bastian gives him no Att. So what can we learn from this? Get off of Easy Mode.

    Incorrect. Wasn't easy mode. And no, not personal experience. Personal knowledge of the game, different styles of playing. Overall look over of Volke's abilities in general, and a long term point of view, he is a tremendous investment.

    9 turns? Because as said I was using ONLY IKE AND VOLKE. ONLY. Learn to read. 16 damage explanation.... Resolve bitch. Plus (as said) if you had much intelligence of the game you would know the most Volke can do is 1 damage to the Dragons on Easy Mode.

    And to snowy, I actually agree with you on that explanation. I just get a lot more use out of Volke than I would Zihark or Mia. I've tried bringing Mia and Zihark to endgame with Ike alone, and they.. don't fare as well as Volke does. Even with Mia/Zihark all maxed stats (volke is too) volke seems to lay down lives far faster, and easier than the two swordsmasters. And that's not just from personal experience. It has been the same with tons of people on youtube, and real life friends. Not to mention the fact that it takes Mia and Zihark a while to even get into a usable state. Unless you really know how to balance kills in your game, and let's face it, most don't. Then you will have to spend your BEXP on them, and the end result isn't worth it seeing as Volke can equip a lot better skills than they do. Mia, has Vantage but unless you want to waste the ONE wrath scroll you get from Chapter 18 on her, she ain't much. Same with Zihark except the fact he has Adept.

    And with Shade on him, he has a much better survival rate than Zihark/Mia

  10. Make sure you actually play on Hard Mode. You know, the mode where Volke can't damage Dragons at endgame even with max Str and a Stiletto?

    Actually on Hard Mode endgame my Volke still could damage the Dragons. Every single one of his stats were maxed, with lethality and. And with Resolve he was doing 30+

    Black Knight will do fine as long as you you recruit him ONLY for the last few chapters and make him actualy Vulnerable to enemy attacks to balance it out a little<br style="color: rgb(7, 55, 2); font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; background-color: rgb(239, 255, 240); ">

    I'm also interested to see a playthrough/LP of this on Youtube

    I was going to recruit him from chapter 11 and on.. I can remove his blessing with an AR code. But even with that gone his defense is still so high that most enemies can't hurt him. Maybe I'll just play my own playthrough to have fun with before doing a youtube playthrough. Then I will only use him from Chapter 27 and on.

  11. I disagree with the Volke rating.. I used only two units in the endgame, Ike and Volke. (setting aside giffca as it was hard mode) Sent Ike after Bryce, then retreated a bit to wait for Ashnard to come. Volke had ALL other units on the field slain by turn 9 when Ashnard decides to hunt you down. Skills, lethality, and miracle. Setting aside Generals as the best defensive units, (stiletto shatters through that anyways) I would say Wyvern Lords or Dragons have the best defense. Volke was doing 16 damage to one of the dragons on endgame, plus 43% crit chance. And to wyvern lords, he was killing them in two non-crit, non-lethality hits. I'd say he's far from useless. At least after he's promoted, beforehand, yeah kinda.

  12. So I'm recruiting everyone, including enemy bosses (with an action replay), as well as a lot of other units.

    Choice list; Ike excluded:

    Greil

    Black Knight

    Ashnard/Berserk Ashnard

    Bertram

    Petrine

    Hafedd

    Bryce

    Homasa

    Naesala

    Tibarn

    Giffca

    Ena

    Nasir

    Volke (Assassin)

    Sothe (Assassin)

    Nephenee

    Sephiran

    Oliver

    Shiharam

    Who would be the most useful units? Wanting the top 12

    And if anyone is interested in this, I might make a video playthrough on youtube.

  13. well my cousin has the same processor and computer as me and he was able to play through the whole game without any problems. Okay, really not finding the DLL on dolphin website, sorry I'm being kind of stupid...

    Okay, found out i need to update my directx runtime, hehe. FAQs are there for a reason I guess. <.<

    New problem. PoR keeps freezing at random points, anyone know how to prevent this? :/

  14. PC specs? I dont know what that is :3 It's a 2010 Emachine windows 7 64 bit. Intel celeron processor. Anyways, I can't even get dolphin to install. Every time I try installing it well I attached a screenshot. And no matter what I do, this always pops up. No matter what version of dolphin it is.

  15. Does anyone happen to play FE9 on an emulator? I broke my gamecube, and sold my wii, so i can't play FE9 anymore, and this was always my favorite of the FE series (having played and beaten every single one countless times)

    I tried dolphin emulator, but dolphin no longer works.. If anyone has a working emulator please please PLEASE I beg you! please send me it.

    Also, if this is against the rules i apologize, I'm really new here...

  16. Aethereal, you are VERY close. It is Castle Nados. You were off by one letter, but Gados is one of the castles in FE9 (and FE10) Lekain Gados. Senator of Begnion.

    The Black Knight was most definitely a better warrior than Ashnard. I did a bit of hacking (<.<......) and recruited Black Knight in FE9, and at the final battle, using only the BK to fight Ashnard, no skills, no crits, Alondite vs. Gurgurant (did i spell that right?) Black knight was the only one standing. Ashnard HP=0 BK HP=27

    I remember BK saying Ashnards armor was blessed, but didn't he also say the sword was? They were both gifts from the BK

    edit: forgot to mention, i took away both of their renewals so that it would be more fair. And no vulneraries, or elixirs used on either one. no healers.

  17. I don't mean to offend the translators, it's probably because I haven't been paying as close of attention as before, but just a few months ago, only the gameplay stuff was translated. I'm just suprised everything got done so quickly.

    A month ago they had no gameplay translated, merely supports and the extras menus, battle conversations, basically just the little stuff. Don't see how they could have come so far from that in a month. Unless it's a different team.
