Best/Worst in the series: Round 32


General Spoon

Recommended Posts

Please vote for what YOU think is the best/worst in the series for this round. The round will last for about a week or so, after which I will tally the votes, and will add the top three to a list in the opening post of the next topic.

It would be nice if you nominate ideas for when I'm out of them. I'll keep track of the nominations. Please nominate only once a round.

Please remember to nominate. Also, if your vote is not for one person/thing/etc, it will be thrown out. Your vote will also be thrown out if the FE game it is from is not stated if it is needed. This is mainly to avoid confusion.

NEW RULE

If you excessivly complain about the results of previous rounds, you will not be allowed to vote in these topics for a period of time that will be determined later. A list will be kept of those who will not be allowed to vote, and how many rounds until they can vote again.

Best: Sigurd. Broken as hell.

Worst: Lyn. Fragile as hell. Being locked to swords until promotion and having a bow as a secondary weapon doesn't help. >_>

Nominating Best/Worst first boss.

This.

Best: Sigurd. Any other answer is just wrong, and I haven't even PLAYED Genealogy.

Worst: Hmm, between Lyn or Suecaiah...

Gotta go with Miccy. At least Lyn has SPD.

Come to think of it, why isn't Lillina on this list? She IS considered a Lord...

I could say the same about people who haven't played Gaiden. Cellica is terrible. She gains no promotion bonuses, is fairly fragile, and deals such little damage even though she can use magic. She's also pretty slow early on if you don't give her bonuses.

You're either basing all this after grinding or exaggerating. Up until Katua and Paola shows up, she's the best unit in her team and even without promotion bonuses she fares well enough throughout the rest of the game.

Best: Sigard (Every other choice is WRONG.)

Actually, "Best" is determined based on a set of ideals or values. By changing what you are looking for, different units become "Best".

If the thing you value most is the size of the prf sword they wield, then the best unit is the one with the biggest prf sword (and units without a prf sword are auto-fail). A lord could be the "best" in someone's mind because he/she has the best hair, which is all that really matters to my hypothetical person. Which is why an agreed upon set of values is required before there is an objective "best" making all other answers wrong. Using goals like efficiency and valuing how a unit contributes to efficiency (in comparison to other units in its game) Sigurd likely then becomes the objective best.

For example, someone here doesn't seem to value things like healing or things like OHKOing the toughest enemies in the toughest part of a game, and as such has somehow come to the conclusion that Micaiah is the worst lord. Whatever he values more than those two things, it allows him to make Micaiah seem like the worst out of all the lords. When things that contribute to efficiency are valued more, Micaiah is clearly not the worst Lord.

Without creating a set of criteria, there is no objective best, and thus other choices cannot be auto-wrong. Much as I like absolute truth, and believe it exists for many things, this is not one of them.

Serv and Volbo say hi. And no, I'm not basing that statement off of grinding(I don't grind in FE2. I generally just play easy mode and only do side battles so as to recruit extra characters/get items). And no, she really doesn't do all to well late in the game due to her poor str and semi bad HP(which is important for magic users). She's obviously the best unit for the first battle of the game when you look at your other units during that chapter (Boey.....)
