Drayano Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Now I'm thinking of mind control swords... Though the Darkness Sword counts as that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fia Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I was thinking more along the lines of it making you think of a princess trapped in a castle and then you just go tearing into the opponents... Wow.........that's..............sound so lame... >.> Maybe they were used by past heroes, just like Skasha said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Spoon Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Or maybe Hero weapons are a class of weapons that have been blessed for heros. Sounds reasonable to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee, thanks for being supportive, woman... Probably Or maybe Hero weapons are a class of weapons that have been blessed for heros.Sounds reasonable to me.

Celice Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 (edited) Actually, since it's called a Hero Sword in all the preGBA games, I'll bet it makes them feel heroic. Same basic concept and outcome, but a very different feeling, I'm guessing. I thought it 'Heroes' not 'Hero' :/ Edited January 24, 2009 by Celice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Poleax Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 In RD, 3-13's preparation music is the same as the endgame chapters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rei Rei Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Or maybe Hero weapons are a class of weapons that have been blessed for heros. So they are like the 12 Crusaders, but just non-holy blood cheapos? I mean, to make something move 2 or 3 more times than usual, it's magic. Also, the GBA's Zabato/Longsword are quite different from the real one. the GBA ones are just like the normal one, but it's jut larger. The real one is HUGE, to the point you could use it as a lance.

Emblem Lugh Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 My question is, how the hell does Frey, who has facial hair, get away with being a decoy for somebody who has no facial hair?They were quite a distance away when they spotted "Marth" (Frey). They probably couldn't see the facial hair.Also, the GBA's Zabato/Longsword are quite different from the real one. the GBA ones are just like the normal one, but it's jut larger.The real one is HUGE, to the point you could use it as a lance. If you are thinking about zanbatos like Sanosuke's in Rurouni Kenshin, that is a special king of zanbato. ^^; Zanbatos can also be katanas with a freakishly huge ricasso, and can still be used as a sword, but can double a lance. What would have been interesting is if lance and sword users could use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I thought it 'Heroes' not 'Hero' :/ Do you mean as in "Heroes Sword" not "Hero Sword"? It's the same thing, since it's Yuusha no Tsurugi/Ken in Japanese, which literally means "Sword of Hero", but "Hero" can be singular, plural, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Wozzeck Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 They were quite a distance away when they spotted "Marth" (Frey). They probably couldn't see the facial hair. But what of when they get up close and the decoy's map sprite doesn't change until the very last moment when he's surrounded? Surely they would've noticed well before they changed map sprites...

Icon of Sin Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) In the Japanese version of Radiant Dawn Micaiah's Third Tier job was called "Shaman." Light magic users in FE 4 and 5 were Shamans. They also used staves ( and Fire/Wind/Thunder ) and promoted to Sages.

Drayano Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Skills were always FE4/5's forte to begin with. FE10 does allow more customization of them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibari Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I found another one: "Crow" which was used as an insult for Raven laguz in the English version was the actual name for them in the Japanese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueRose95 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Found two one both in FE1/3/11: - Myrrh asks Ephraim if she can call him "brother", same for Marth with Tiki (in the Japanese version, in european vers. it's "Mar-Mar") ; both princes refuse at the first time but give it up . -Cheine uses "Boku" to refer to himself in the manga version and NES too. But in FEDS he uses "Ore" instead (Also a proof that he is a man >_>) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnd Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Actually they are cases of girls using "boku" and "ore." It's just rare. There's even a "bokukko" term used to define such tomboys. One example is Arle from Puyo Puyo. Either way, Chainey has always been an effeminate guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
