Trainees get 10 extra levels of stats. All it takes is just a level or two in the tower, and Amelia's great. Plus, she has killer avoid and speed, while still having plenty of strength. But then again, I'm tired of x Vs. x debates. Why can't we just say "Okay, x does this great, but x can do this better", and not just fight about stuff that doesn't matter? Really, I don't think Fire Emblem was created for people to argue about who's the best.
