Loki Laufeyson Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Eliwood pretty much sucks until heaven seal time..get him to level 20 anyway because you DONT want that one chapter where you end up with Wallace (especially in Hector mode..O_o) Just tough it out..hes pretty fragile in the beginning though so take due care..

Fireman Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 And that's Eliwood's fault....how? The same thing could have happened with anyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ϲharlie Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 That's a problem with the RNG, not Eliwood. Things like that happen all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riariadne Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 i know, but its his fault because he didnt have higher skill. maybe i can given him secret book... oh yeah i did... ok maybe its not his fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 (edited) i know, but its his fault because he didnt have higher skill. maybe i can given him secret book... oh yeah i did... ok maybe its not his fault. It's not like Eliwood needs the secret book. He has pretty decent skill and Eliwood missing is not something that happens often.

Edorian Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 In every playthrough Ive played EVERY SINGLE ONE Eliwood either sucks or is average never has he exceeded in anything or being really good at anything, that is why I don't really like the guy.

riariadne Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 wow, that fails. STUPID RNG!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Wozzeck Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 STUPID RNG!!! It's considerably evil in FE4, and in fact it's even more evil than in FE7. Yeah, the RNG is a bitch to deal with... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vykan12 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 (edited) It's considerably evil in FE4, and in fact it's even more evil than in FE7. Yeah, the RNG is a bitch to deal with... What makes you say that? FE4-5's RNG appears more evil since it uses 1 RN for hit rates instead of 2, meaning low hit rates don't get skewed even lower and vice versa. So really, what seems like getting RNG screwed is likely just a distorted perception of what you think a ~25-33% chance should be based on PE from later FEs. As for FE7, I can only imagine you're referring to the generally low growth rates of the characters. Though, the farther your growths are from 50%, the less chance of deviancy from the expected average.

Meteor Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 A 97% means you're still taking a chance. Nothing but 100% is guaranteed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riariadne Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 Actually, isn't 98 over 100 real hit? If 97 is 99.85 real hit, then surely 98 is over 100. Am I right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riariadne Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 (edited) How so? Mostly having pretty nice stats all around, and owning almost everything.

Herr Wozzeck Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Mostly having pretty nice stats all around, and owning almost everything. Ah, okay then. He'll probably start to suck again once he can use Durandal, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riariadne Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 Yeah, doesn't the Durandal nearly destroy his speed with that monstrous weight? Some ultimate weapon that is, but at least it has great stats otherwise. And its a class buster against dragons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riariadne Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 Also, I think I know why the Uber spear gives +14 HP. It's not as generous as you'd like come endgame... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some ultimate weapon that is, but at least it has great stats otherwise. And its a class buster against dragons. Yeah, it's just too damn heavy. That's usually why I never confront Nergal with Eliwood when the Endgame comes around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral "Bull" Halsey Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Eliwood could barely handle Durandal... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekkah Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Eliwood's stats and growths make him seem balanced, but he's actually a major tank due to his ability to gain 3 Def/15 Avo from A Hector alone, and then 10 more Avo with B Lowen. FE7 enemies are extremely slow and Eliwood's Str is nothing to complain about, so he actually one-rounds quite easily. He's just an amazing unit that lots of people complain about due to personal experience for some reason. He'll probably start to suck again once he can use Durandal, though... How can you become worse by gaining an additional weapon? For one chapter, too. It's just useful to dish a whole lot of damage in one hit if you can only get one in anyway. Just give him a Javelin and a Killing Edge in the final as reserves, it's all he needs. It being heavy doesn't matter against Nergal. Nergal himself is a snail, and his weapon is as accurate as a homing missile and 2HKOs him either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
