    The Pairing Thread

    in Fire Emblem: Awakening

    Posted

    so for more optimize team, which one is better?

    Gaius!Kjelle & Donnel!Noire

    OR

    Donnel!Kjelle & Gaius!Noire ??

    Also quick question about proc stacking skills, if I have a unit who has 50+ Skl and has access to Vengeance and Astra, can I procstacking them? or Vengeance will always active due to Skl% x 2 activation rate?

    and is Sage/Sniper pair up good? :Sara:

    Before I get to the big stuff, sniper x sage is very good, not as good as sniper x berserker, but still damn good.

    Now that question seems to be the popular debate in this thread and some people take either side. It's not really a question of Gaius!Kjelle and Donnel!Noire or Donnel!Kjelle and Gaius!Noire, but the real question that should be asked is: which one gets Gaius? Gaius is just so much better than Donnel in every way that the question is who gets to have him as their dad.

    Czar and many others go with Gaius!Kjelle because 75 speed wyvern lord, and I definitely see where they're coming from and I understand as an incredibly viable option, but I disagree. There are two enemies that you need 75 speed to double, and that's nightmare sniper and Anna. The thing is, I feel like it's way more efficient to just smack those two with longbow/double bow snipers with 75 speed (such as Lucina/Cynthia). Doubling them at one range doesn't seem as good as weakening them greatly or even killing them at 3, then picking them off if necessary.

    The difference between Gaius!kjelle and Donnel!Kjelle is all in the speed, but if you take my previous point into account, her speed isn't really going to matter. the difference between Gaius!Noire and Donnel!Noire is much more significant. As in, one is basically top tier and the other is meh. Gaius!Noire makes her an incredibly useful unit, and Donnel!Kjelle does the same things as Gaius!kjelle, except is a bit slower.

    I remain convinced that Gaius!Noire is best as a Sniper with LB/GF/Astra/Luna/All+2. Sure, she's eclipsed in that role by Chrom!Cynthia and Sumia!Lucina because of Aether and their 1 extra Speed, but it's still by far the most potent thing she has going for her. Procstack Snipers are rare and valuable units, and it never hurts to have more of them. Plus Cynthia and Lucina are great in other classes besides Sniper, so they may not be filling that role in your team.

    So pick Gaius!Noire if you want a fast Sniper, and pick Gaius!Kjelle if you want a fast Wyvern Lord (LB/GF/Astra/Luna/All+2). The current fad at SF is to emphasize 75 Speed to an extreme degree, but that only actually matters against two enemies in the whole game. I prefer Gaius!Noire because doubling Anna at range 3 is very useful, whereas doubling her at range 1 usually is not. Nightmare Sniper is easy to kill regardless.

    If you're willing to accept not doubling Anna & NS, then Donnel!Kjelle does everything that Gaius!Kjelle does and gets Hero access to boot. For Noire, on the other hand, Donnel is a lot worse.

    This actually sums up my thoughts pretty well, except my preferred build for Noire is Dark Knight with GF/Luna/Astra/Swordfaire. DK gives her an extremely valuable role in No brave runs in that she can efficiently attack the thronie/helswath berserkers from a range without fear of counter or aegis+.

    I miss Alastor, he's the one who taught me all this

    Am I the only one who doesn't see a problem with Stahl!Severa's hair?

    I mean it's nowhere near as good as Lon'qu's or Vaike's, but it looks fine tbh

    I would use Stahl for Cordelia but his bowfaire is needed elsewhere and aesthetically I prefer Vaike so that's generally her dad for me.

    Vaike/Gregor/Frederick/Stahl x Cherche are all good. But if you want hard stats-

    Frederick!Gerome:

    +6 Strength.

    +5 Defense.

    +2 Skill.

    +1 Luck.

    -1 Magic and Resistance.

    -2 Speed.

    Thanks gamefaqs! While this slows Gerome down, he gets a really tanky setup. Both PavGis, he gets Luna for damage, Dual Guard+ and Dual Support+, and Paladin. He can be a very helpful backup. A good pairing.

    He doesn't get berserker, a faire, or a +hit skill. PavGis is useless, and DG+ and DS+ are very close to useless. He won't ever need luna because he'll be in the back the whole time. This one only rose to popularity because a gamefaqs user thought it would be funny if he tried to make a shit pair seem good (although I actually do like them together if we're going by supports, but unfortunately supports don't make Gerome good).

    Virion!Gerome:

    +4 Strength.

    +2 Skill and Speed.

    +1 Magic and Defense

    0 Luck.

    -1 Resistance.

    Nothing. Gerome gets nothing out of this that he couldn't get from other fathers. Next.

    Not true. He gets both Bowfaire (Warriors LOVE bowfaire) and a +hit skil in Hit+20, which most other fathers can't provide. This is actually one of the best fathers for Gerome.

    Vaike!Gerome

    +7 Strength.

    +3 Defense.

    +1 Skill and Speed.

    0 Luck.

    -1 Magic.

    -3 Resistance.

    Oh my. That strength. It can be furthered due to him getting Berserker, and therefore Axefaire.

    He lacks a skill to improve his hit rate as a berserker, so while his strength is good, there are much better fathers. Vaike also has better use on others.

    Stahl!Gerome

    +6 Strength.

    +5 Defense.

    +1 Skill.

    0 Speed and Magic.

    -1 Luck.

    -2 Resistance.

    A pretty good Gerome all things considered. Can get Swordfaire for Hero, gets Luna... and a bit more speed then usual, with Neutral mods.

    A better version of Virion!Gerome. Essentially the same things as Virion!Gerome, but with more strength. This one is good (I personally use this one).

    Kellam!Gerome

    +6 Defense.

    +5 Strength.

    +1 Magic and Skill.

    -1 Luck and Resistance.

    -2 Speed.

    Pretty tanky. Also allows him to pull some weird shit with that boosted magic growth since he gets no physical faires...

    See Frederick but with even worse mods. Not good.

    Gregor!Gerome

    +6 Strength.

    +4 Defense.

    +2 Skill.

    0 Magic, Speed and Luck.

    -3 Resistence.

    My personal favorite for Gerome (besides Henry being his dad but that is kind of a "meh" pairing). It gives him Armsthrift (!!!!), Axefaire AND Swordfaire, good mods all around (being only one off from the massive +7 which feels a tad bit overkill) and crap Res... but that's par for the course. Also gets him Astra and Vantage, similar to the Stahl pairing.

    Same as Vaike but with one less strength. He gets berserker, but doesn't have the +hit skill he'll need to be good with it. There are much better pairings for Gerome, and Gregor is so pro on Laurent, there's not much reason to use him here.

    Henry!Gerome is actually the best Gerome out of all of them (Anathema and Berserker). The alternatives are Stahl and Virion, then Vaike and Gregor if all of the above are seriously unavailable.

    Gregor!Gerome seems really good.. But I'm thinking of handing Gregor to Panne. So Freddy!Gerome it is.

    you might want to know that Frederick!Gerome is shitty and you probably shouldn't do that

    Henry, Stahl, and Virion are the best for him.

    For you, the best options would be Gregor x Miriel, Stahl x Cherche, and Virion x Panne (or Stahl x Panne and Virion x Cherche)
