JustHisHat Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Hey everybody. I thought this would be an interesting topic to start, seeing as I didn't see another another topic like this, and if there is, i would like to request a lock and a link to that topic please. Anywhoo, the topic is simple, who do you think the best character in this game is, and why. I personally think that it is L'Arachel because whenever i have used her, she has never disappointed and has always maxed out a lot of stats (notably magic, speed, and skill). She does come a little late in the game for a healer, but if you use her enough she will get to level 20 pretty fast, and from there, the sky's the limit for her.

The Envoy of the Beginning Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 (edited) Tana. Seth. Mounted, Promoted, available from the very beginning, good bases and growths, makes early and mid-game easier, blah, blah, blah.

BK-201 Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 For Normal Game without abuse: Seth. For Normal Game with abuse: One of the three trainees who you give the metis tome. For Creature Campaign: Best caps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I'm a Ross fan here, though really you can't go wrong with most of the characters in FE8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RNG Princess Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 (edited) Syrene is the best for me because I give all the favoritism to her. This is based on my personal playthroughs. best Flier without favoritism Tana or Vanessa tie best Paladdin Amelia with Favoritism, Franz without it best healer L'arachel with favoritism, Moulder and Natasha tie without it best swordmaster with and without favoritism Joshua best mage with favoritism Knoll, without favoritism Arthur best axe fighter with favoritism Ross or Dozla, best without Garcia or hero Gerik best Rogue Colm without favoritism and Rennac with it best bow user with and without favoritism Neimi best armor unit with favoritism Duessel, without it Gilliam Tethys is one of the best too ;) Edited January 8, 2010 by Queen_Elincia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emeraldfox Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Kyle. Access to all the weapons(if you promote him into a GK) good/great/awesome stats. And he's a pretty cool guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanger Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Best character is Myrrh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luftwaffe Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 (edited) Seth is, without doubt, the best unit in the game, but i still think he's a boring ass prick. Edited January 9, 2010 by Salmonella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxas Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Seth. For reasons already stated. And he has a horse that can change color. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anouleth Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Best? Seth. Favourite? Tana, Syrene or Ephraim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deliriyum Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Seth for bottom tier along with Titania. As for best.... Innes and Knoll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shroudening Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 My best character was Cormag. Other characters that come close would be Vanessa (Wyvern knight), Joshua (Swordmaster), Ross (Berzerker), and Franz (Paladin). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Tethys is one of the best too ;) Dancers are always considered to be high in the tiers, especially in games like FE8 where there's not too much sniping with ballistae and long-range magic, though I'm still not a big fan outside of FE4 personally. Best character is Myrrh. It's nice that Myrrh gets a second dragonstone, but her use is still too limited by her weapons and she's a bit on the weak side by manakete standards.

Junkhead Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 GERIK! Hell, guys, believe me, I have only used him once, but he is just amazing, he has Str, Skill, Spd & Def, 15 Def for a 20/1 Hero is just lol at the GBA series. He is like Dieck but much better, it's his Def, if you take your time you could S rank him with axes so he could use Garm, his higher Spd is sure an advantage. I think that by lvl 7 with a Steel Axe you could S rank him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mounted, Promoted, available from the very beginning, good bases and growths, makes early and mid-game easier, blah, blah, blah. ^This, pretty much. For Normal Game without abuse: Seth.

Jaybee Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Seth. Any other answer is wrong. Aside from Seth, though, I'd say Franz on Eir route, Duessel on Eph route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Lolwut. Gerik is great, also. He also starts out strong and doubles most things on his starting chapter. His durability is also fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CassieCinders Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I never really cared that much about FE8, but if I have to choose I'm going with Seth. Though I think that you can't really call a character the best...someone will always find a counterargument, a good one or a bad one doesn't matter, someone will always find one *proceeds to the execution pole to be shot* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
