Vykan12 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Giffca's not exactly a king and he's a weaker Caineghis so why put him up there? They're pretty evenly matched statistically, though, so I don't see how you could definitively claim Caneighis is stronger. Cain has a +1 str and +5% growth lead, but also loses in base spd by 1 and in growth by 30%, meaning Giffca has a much better chance of doubling auras without Nasir than he does (in fact he does so on average). Aside from needing a laguz gem, I'd reckon Giffca is actually a better endgame choice, though using both is without much doubt an optimal decision anyway.

Little Sothe Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 Well, Giffca was considered as a laguz royal in PoR so that's why I put him there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Wozzeck Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Caineghis, since lions are awesome. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekkah Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Aside from needing a laguz gem And not being able to attack on turn 1 without a Heron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dondon151 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Except unless you're Rafiel, you're usually using a Laguz Gem with your heron on the first turn. Where is Kurthnaga =S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vykan12 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 ^That's what trades are for, since you have 3 laguz gems for 4-E, which is plenty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dondon151 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I'm saying that Reyson/Leanne will use a Laguz Gem on the first turn instead of invigorating Giffca. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Sothe Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 I added Kurthnaga to the choice list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sangosan Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I like Nailah and Tibarn for no reason... But they're all awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melodia Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Despite how I don't really like Laguz, I probably like Tibarn the most. Nailah is okay, too. What about Lorazieh? Wasn't he the Heron King? D: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vykan12 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I'm saying that Reyson/Leanne will use a Laguz Gem on the first turn instead of invigorating Giffca. And I'm saying Giffca will trade for that laguz gem and use it on the same turn. How was I not clear before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Sothe Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 What about Lorazieh? Wasn't he the Heron King? D: Yeah but I mean, the overpowered royal laguz that you can use in the end :P . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xanatha Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Naesala - No doubt! And I still wonder, what's so special about Tibarn? You never find out anything about how he was as a king. All you know is that he ordered his men to attack Beginon ships, on behalf of Reyson. And that isn't even good, is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icon of Sin Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 (edited) Well, I don't think most people care much about the politics of the game. IIRC, Laguz rulers are chosen by strength. I mean, did you see Tibarn's size next to the others? At least, it would fit the criteria of choosing the king for Beast, Dragon and Hawk tribes. It might be a bit different for Ravens and Herons, though Naesala is quite strong for a Raven and Herons might base it more on spiritual strength.

luigi bros Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 White winged Herons are said to be royal so they are king just for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Laufeyson Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 ^odd how that is since Lehran has dark wings and he was the leader of the heron clan go figure... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eltoshen Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 (edited) The only laguz kings/queens are... Nailah of whateversheowns Deghinsea of Goldoa Tibarn of Phoenicis Naesala of whateverheowns and...Caineghis of whateverheowns. Holy crap, I haven't played FE9 in a billion years. And I'm unsure about this... Lazoriah of Serenes(?) My favorite is still Tibarn, with Caineghis close behind.

Mr.Shiu and Watch Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I pick Tibarn because he looks cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Poleax Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Tibarn cause he can fly. Caineghis is a close second. I try not to use them cause they make the game way too easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defeatist Elitist Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Tibarn for being totally excellent, plus availability, plus he fucking jumps off a god damn cliff and doesn't die. :D If Ranulf was here I'd vote for him because he is just so totally, irreversibly GAY. His lines are so amazing, I almost dropped my latte. Apparently latte doesn't need a "é". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Yodha Stasella Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 my top 1) Naesala (vote) 2) Tibarn 3) Nailah 4) Kurthnaga 5) Giffca 6) Caineghis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
