  1. For Physical I'd say Camilla!Velouria(I found Camilla better but I guess Effie is :P) or Effie!Velouria

    For Magical I'd go Sakura!Rhajat(I'd go this route I think Nyx is better though), Nyx!Rhajat or Orochi!Rhajat

    Also Honorable mention for Magic. Elise!Ophelia

  2. I feel like that character is completely useless I dunno lol. I even found use for Jeigen in FE11 Hard 5.

    But in Conquest and Revelations Lunatic I didn't really use him at all. Actually I think I used him for ONE Chapter in Revelations and Corrin was really the MVP there.

  3. I think Awakening and Fates suffer from the same problem, namely that the writers bit off more than they could chew; the difference between Awakening and Fates, however, is that the developers got overconfident due to the success of Awakening. Awakening tried to honor the series' legacy but failed to do so in a consistent way and the story ended up fragmented as a result, while Fates tried doing "Awakening but bigger and better!" but obviously didn't have the competence to handle a diverging story.

    If you ask me though, the writing has always been Fire Emblem's weak point - character interactions have usually been solid but anything beyond that is normally pretty lackluster. I still consider Blazing Sword to be the second worst written installment of the games that have been localized, and I can't for the life of me remember a single scene in Sacred Stones that doesn't involve Lyon or L'arachel. I can see why so many people like the Tellius series as well - and I do too - but it's got its fair share of problems as well - I'll never understand why so many people like Ashnard, for one, and the Blood Pact has been discussed to death.

    Again, this is just my opinion, but there's so much doom and gloom in this fandom especially regarding the two latest installments that I can't help but feel like some people's rage have blinded them to the earlier installments' flaws.

    And before anyone calls me a hypocrite for saying that other people are gloomy when I'm 100% concentrated nerd rage when it comes to Fates' story, I'd like to point out that I've never said that Awakening and Fates killed the entire bloody franchise; I'm excited for the series' growing success and just hope that Intelligent Systems learn from their mistakes. I also don't hate the game, but rather the horrible writing, and I try to give credit where credit is due.

    And with that rant concluded, I'm off to bed.

    I agree with this so much lol. That's why I never get tripped up over FE stories they just all seem weak imo.

    People will praise Tellius at least in the FB group I'm apart of not too sure about in general. I even saw a guy said Radiant Dawn's story is the "pinnacle of video game story telling" LOL Which yeah no.

    I feel like JRPGs in general have a problem with story telling.

  4. I use Orochi for Asugi and Setsuna for HIsame(Who I don't use much tbh but seemed to fit).

    My vote goes to Beruka, As people said earlier she really only goes well with Benny.

    As for Azura? Come on is that a joke? lol she's a pretty good mother and she doesn't really need to pass down any skills to make her any better tbh(I mean skill buying is a thing anyways why not use it...) Even if you aren't doing it and some reason want to get Shigure for Conquest or somethin she's still fine. I used Shigure my first playthrough with Corrin as the father and had no issues. In later playthroughs I use Jakob though.

  5. Feel like Velouria with Effie or Camilla(In this case I go with Camilla) Is objectively the best Physical mother for Kana.(Edit: My B I only read the title lol but if you were ever interested in Physical this is the way to go!!!)

    As for Magical I think Elif got you covered.

    I personally go with Elise!Ophelia!Kana, I think Nyx!Rhajat or Sakura!Rhajat might be better though but I like Ophelia as a character so I lean towards her :P

  6. We can safely assume Revelations is the canon path and I dunno if DLC is legit but Chrom says something about Hoshido and Nohr being history in his world sooooo.... Fates is the beginning???

    As far as Hoshido and Nohr routes we can assume they're just "What if" scenarios/ alternate timelines like Lucina's timeline in Awakening.

  7. I'm so sure that the Memories of Foam or whatever it'll be called will use pre-set characters. Because hair colors, but not only that... Imagine if it uses your game file. And somehow, all the parents died except for Kamui/Corrin. What, you can't possibly send poor Kanna out by him/herself, can you? Now I just want to know how they choose between male or female Kanna.

    At this point I'm just wondering if the DLC's going to be split based on which path you chose? Because iirc, one of the screenshots had Kanna with other children on the map, and they were all Hoshidian children. So, since it has 6 maps, 2 maps for each path? Maybe? I kind of hope not...

    Totally looking forward to it, though. I hope the kids meet their evil controlled dads/Kamui, at least. All of them.

    Like I said in a previous post I'm willing to bet its pre-set like invisible history and beach brawl. Also willing to bet they will probably just use Female Kana but maybe they'll make it based off of what Corrin you picked cause i'm sure that isnt too hard.

    Also judging by the name i'm willing to put money that this is based off of a failed Revelations route and has nothing to do with the other two.

    Your logic that its a total of 6 maps and 2 for each route seems like a possibility though.

  8. I though FE11 was great hang me. I guess I'm easy to please(especially since i ignore story for the most part that might help or i'd hate some FE games lol) only FE games that are low on my radar are loke RD and Awakening but still love them(well RD ehhh)

    I feel like every game in the series does some good and does some bad.

    Awakening made supports and made me want to get them since it was less tedious.

    I like the formula this game took I wonder if the split version gimmick can be used again. Really curious where the future of FE goes and I wonder if the next one will finally be Sci-Fi lol.

  9. Better than Awakening. It has a few flaws but each game seems to make both progress and... Regression I guess? They do some better some worse. The battles are so much better than just open fields all day every day. Characters are better by and large. I do think the Royal Weapons are annoying, and marriage limitations.

    Emphasis on this lol. Even on Birthright sure there are some maps that are just straight up giant fields but I dunno there is more to them than Awakening maps.

    I really love this game. I also really loved Awakening when I first played it but I kept playing the game and eventually my opinion went from really positive to really negative :/ still have respect for the game but that map design uugghhh lol.

    Fates on the other hand my opinion has stayed pretty positive since I got it back in Oct. I hope the game is well received though despite the trash localization.

  10. We actually have a whole subforum here devoted to discussing Cipher! It includes news, information, and also trading/buying/selling of cards between members. Come check us out sometime!

    If you're looking for the Marth, Lucina, and Minerva codes for the Japanese version of the game, I have them available, but I don't believe they work in the NA versions. I've been kind of staying away from spoilers (European here, still waiting for a release date), so I don't know if there's a way to get those characters in NA yet, though.

    Ah thank you very much I will check it out. I have both NA and JP though I can speak and understand quite a bit of Japanese I prefer to play games in my native language when I can cause it hurts my head less hahaha.

  11. If I was playing casual I'd have no problem using anyone tbh hahaha.

    Revelations seems doable and ye Ike seems like one of the more weaker Amiibos you can give him like Dreadfighter or Lodestar(lol) to fix his speed. There is still class pairup bonuses but you're right now as strong as regular supports.

    In terms of recruiting them yeah Marth seems like a tough one to get. When I played the JP version I honestly didnt bother but since I have had my fun with Lunatic on JP I'm gonna try them out on Hard. I really wish they added supports among the Amiibos at the very least.

  12. Hello guys I have two questions that are pretty much in the topic.

    Are any of the amiibos viable in Hard/Lunatic of any route? If i had to guess Marth and Lucina seem legit but I havent built up the courage to try them in Hoshido/Nohr.

    As for Cipher cards I have been interested in collecting the cards and hey maybe by the time when I go to Japan I can learn the game. My question is any good sites for these cards? And are the Cipher Marth, Lucina and Minerva not able to be gotten anymore?

    Anyways thanks in advance guys.

  13. So this is moreso a general Fire Emblem question I guess but what really determines what active skill is good for certain units?

    I typically give Astra to my more speedy units(When I was younger I used to think the skill was broken and tried to put it on everything but I learned it's not really necessary for some units lol)

    Luna and Sol I give to my units that are gonna hit hard

    But I'm not sure if active skills are exactly that black and white. are there just some active skills that are just objectively better?(I know Dragon Fang is better than Luna for example) or is it unit dependent? to help out with answering my question, I'm currently working on Kinu and I have several options I could give her Astra, Sol, and Breaking sky and I'm sure some other actives. Her mother is Pieri but I'm not too sure what is the best skill for her. She's a speedy unit so I'd assume Astra but Breaking Sky seems like a really good skill.

    Thanks in advance.

  14. So out of these lovely gentlemen that I have left and unpaired who would be the best to father Shigure? Keep in mind the fathers I listed below I care very little about their children I care more about Shigure.
    Takumi
    Arthur
    Lazward
    Benovit
    Hinata
    Suzukaze
    Joker

    Something tells me Hinata or Suzukaze would be the best choice but I'd like a second opinion. Thanks in advance

  15. Ah I know you as the Ryouma guy haha. Thanks for the info I have more options to consider. I was strongly considering Kagerou, and Mozume I completely forgot about Setsuna.

    I'm leaning towards Mozume cause of aptitute and reading up on Extravagance that seems like a pretty funny skill.

    So I guess we'll completely cross of Aqua!Shino I just need to figure out who would be good for Shigure. I also had no clue you could pass down A+ classes to children so I guess I'm gonna have to put in more work.

    EDIT: I read that wrong. A+ Skills not classes whoops lol.

  16. Well marriage sealing Shino is an option no? I kinda wanted to go Holy Lancer Mitama which is why I'm doing Oboro!Mitama and Hinoka!Siegbert is more so my stupid shipping preference lol.

    Going Luna!Matoi gives might hurt Matoi in the end in the stat department? I just checked out the mods. These mods are pretty frustrating to look at.

  17. - Rinkah!Shinonome is better for Ryoma I guess, because Ryoma wants Rinkah pair up stats (+Str Def) and she gives a valuable class too (Oni Savage, Ogre Strike ftw).

    - Mozu!Sophie is decent.

    - Grey wants speed... while Orochi will make him more slow.

    - Charlotte is best mom for Siegbert and she is the best pair up for Marx (+Str Spd)

    - Beruka should just mother Ignis or dead elsewhere :v

    - Felicia is good for Eponine, because Nyx is better with Syalla and Orochi will made her slow but with cost Tomefaire and Exorcist access.

    - I personally do Jakob x Azura because their mods are good and Shigure gets Wyvern Rider not Cavalier because this pairing :v

    - Matoi would want Lance Fighter access.

    I guess I shoulda specified more but I noticed on some you probably just totally skipped some things on the post.

    I'm running a copy Buffer/Healer set for Grey so that's why I'm going with Orochi as a mother he won't be doing much combat.

    I know Charlotte is the best Mom for Siegbert but Hinoka is pretty good for him as well not the best but good enough for me and I really like the Marx/Hinoka pairing anyways

    Ye I decided on not using Beruka as Eponine's Mother in this post.

    If Nyx is objectively better for Eponine I'd rather go with that unless Felicia is actually better. I don't really care for Syalla tbh

    I'll have to look more into that

    I planned on getting Matoi Lance Fighter from Shino.

  18. I mean, Saizou has +1 Str and +-0 Mag, too though I guess +1 is hardly an incentive when Grey's personal growths 45% Str and 50% Mag. but yes, Bow/Staff classes are weird like that =P

    do note that Mitama... inherits +2 Str and -3 Mag from her father (with 40/35 Personal growths). so not like Mitama but more like Sakura, the other "canon" War Priestess

    I meant more like Mitama in the sense that you'd think since her father is a Priest and her starting class is Shrine Maiden you'd think she would have + in Magic and same goes for Zero and him being a Physical based class but that isn't the case at all haha.

    Yeah the whole Grey thing is odd too but it opens up for the whole Copy Butler buff/Healer which is kinda neat.
