Oujay Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Why did they make a third promotion in this game and not the rest of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 It's actually a second promotion (3rd tier), not a third. As for your actual question, the people who could answer that most accurately are the developers from IS, I guess. But I guess it just made sense story-wise in FE10. After all, it would not have made any sense if the GMs all started in Tier 1 Lv-single-digit again, and it also would have been pretty pointless to just have them hit their max level with lightning speed unless they came, like, only very late in the game where this would actually have been justified without them being overpowered (and I actually would have liked that better - more DB usage and stuff - but hey, you can't have everything).

Acacia Sgt Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I have a related question: Why did the third tier was mostly playable characters only? Just look at it: no generic third tier enemies (does the spirits count?), and the few bosses who were had unique classes anyway except for the senators and Levail (well, there is Zelgius too, but all the fights with him as a Marshall are only watchable).

VincentASM Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I'm guessing they didn't want your characters to die from enemy Mastery skills, since there's no protection against them besides Nihil and Parity. That and possibly to make your characters stand out more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlejack Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I wouldn't mind seeing Trainees again. As long as you get them in Chapter One. At most. I actually had an idea for a Trainee Lord... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananas Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 FE10 isn't the only game with 3rd tier classes. They started in FE2. They could keep it in future games, but who knows if they will? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luigi bros Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I think it's because it's a sequal. Well in the sense that about half the characters are pre-promoted. And it wasn't that much but it was in FE2. Actually for one class, if done correctly, has infinate promotions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villager - Mercenary - Swordfighter - Demon Fighter - Villager I belive this is what you mean. I really like the third Tier, and I hope it stays :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bros Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I hope the infinate promotion from Gaiden returns. But I like three classes. It wasn't kept in Shadow Dragon though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) I hope the infinate promotion from Gaiden returns. But I like three classes. It wasn't kept in Shadow Dragon though. Probably because it wasn't around in FE1. I do hope that the third tier is in the next game. :P Edited September 17, 2009 by Bryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bros Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Me too. I hope it's a new continent though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Me too. I hope it's a new continent though. Me too. I wonder if the next game will have something to do with Sacred Stones. It is the only one that isn't related to another game. o.o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bros Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I think it'll be a new continent. That or a remake of FE2 or FE3 Book 2. Don't forget that Valencia also only has one game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlejack Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 I hope it's: A. A completely new continent with a Trainee Prince. Actually, just make most characters you get in the beginning (Prologue in other words...) Trainees. Then they'd be actually useful. And also give them three promotions. Sort of like this: Journeyman can go either Pirate, Viking, or Brigand upon reaching Level 10. Then when we get to Level 20 with any of those classes, you'd be able to Promote AGAIN. WITHOUT any PROMOTION ITEM. We save those for the last promotion. Anyway, choices would be: Pirate can go either Viking (Axes: D-S, Waterwalk 1/2 penalty, 7 Mov) or Berserker, Fighters can go either Berserker or Warrior, and Brigands can go either Warrior or Conqueror (Axes: D-S, Mountainman 1/2 penalty, 6 Mov). After that, when they reach Level 20, you need to promote them again with a class specific item. Don't worry, those items only affect classes with the following base-trainees. Apprentice (Swords): Hero Crest Recruits (Lances): Knight Crest Journeymen (Axes): Barbarian Crest Students (Bows): Spirit Crest Pupils (Magic): Wizard Crest Newbies (Flying/Beast Mounts): Majestic Crest Afterwards, a single-path promotion occurs and your class automatically promotes into a powerful class. Viking -> Seamaster (Axes: C-SS, Waterwalk no Mov penalty, 7 Mov) Berserker -> Warlord (Axes: C-SS, Crit Bonus +20) Warrior -> Reaver (Normal Reaver Stats) Conqueror -> Guardian (Axes: C-SS, Mountainman no Mov penalty, 7 Mov) I digress. Or B: A Wii sequel to Magvel. We were left with a cliff-hanger of sorts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iced Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 I would have liked there to be generic 3rd tiers at least it would have made nihil actually have a use unlike it is now where you just sell them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
