Mousefire Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I think it's Beowolf. Fin has lesser stats in all than luck, and I think prayer is about as useful as charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekkah Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Beowulf comes out on top. It's much easier to make than Fin due to the longer timeframe and the conversation they have, and as a bonus it gets Delmud some cool swords for the first part of Ch6. Prayer and Charge match up about evenly for Delmud. Prayer is better for Nanna though. As for growths, they're nearly equal - minor advantages for Beo in HP and Str, but a 30% loss in Luk, none of which really matter enough for Delmud.

Soviet Gregor Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 With Beo, Delmud caps str at level 15. Nanna will follow soon after. Magic isn't important, since she doesn't use magic, but if Azel!Nanna, should could make good use of magic swords. So can Delmud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blademaster! Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I would say Fin is better overall. All Beowolf does is pass swords onto Delmud (which isn't even that big a deal since Delmud could just buy a sword at the beginning of the turn he joins you) and give minor differences in Hp in Str compared to a fairly larger difference in Luk, a +5 speed bonus for Nanna, and prayer. Charge is really only good for units who attack indirectly a lot like bow users and magic users. Beowolf is really just a faster pairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CassieCinders Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I followed my heart, rather than my brains, and voted Azel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narga_Rocks Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I think Azel is the more fun pairing. Fin and Beowulf are probably better pairings, though. As for Fin v Beo, how much is charge needed, though, when you can give him a silver blade (or even steel) and give him the cutter and he'll ORKO like everything (at least for a while)? Fin at least gives more luck to both (especially Delmud) and a +spd convo for Nanna. Better avo is always good. And if they just happen to drop to like 5 hp... I suppose Nanna appreciates Charge, except for the whole facing more counters thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beowulf pairing is easier to make because he doesn't leave suddenly after a chapter, on top of having a love conversation (+100 points and some bonus stats are always helpful). Delmud also starts with his own swords instead of being forced to buy some and Fin isn't stuck with a measly Iron Lance while he either lost all his stuff or was forced to give it to Cuan/Fury.

Delmud also starts with his own swords instead of being forced to buy some and Fin isn't stuck with a measly Iron Lance while he either lost all his stuff or was forced to give it to Cuan/Fury. There are other issues here, of course. Like only having a 50+2 with her, no love convos, and less than 2 chapters to pull it off. Fin losing his lances is only a little problematic. Even so, he'll do well enough in the first part of chapter 7 with the iron lance and should be able to beat the colloseum and buy a steel lance if you have Fury pass one to Fee for her to sell. Chances are the Hero Lance is going to Fury in chapters 4 and 5 and Fee in chapter 6 anyway, so Fin isn't missing much (unless you get him promoted in the first generation, I suppose, since then he could have the Silver Lance). As for Delmud, an iron sword is kinda annoying. He'll be able to buy an A rank sword soon enough, though. It holds him back a little. It's an undeniable advantage of the Beowulf pairing, but I'm not sure it counteracts the benefits of Fin completely. At any rate, they are close. And I still think Azel is the most fun one, even if it isn't as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalis Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Tanky elite+charisma kiddos on horsies; I voted Lex. I've never seriously used Beowulf (as a frontliner) before but have tried the pairing a couple of times. It was nice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salad Utensil Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I like having Nanna have prayer and having more speed so that the prayer sword can go to someone else. It makes the arena easier for her and Delmudd. Therefore I picked Fin. However, I also like the Deu pairing, for the chapter 5 convo however the kids ended up pretty terribad :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 STOP TAKING UP SPACE BY MAKING THESE ABSURD TOPICS THAT COULD ALL BE MELDED INTO ONE OF 839579836260678925343 TOPICS. Anyway, I voted Fin because, even though Kyosuke Beowulf has it's merits, Fin is a more fun pairing to me. IMO Prayer > Charge. It also depends on who kills Shagaal. If I can get Fin to kill him, then he can pass down the Silver Blade to Delmud. Otherwise, I just promote Beo and have him buy it. Finally, it doesn't really matter that Fin has only an Iron Lance in Ch7. He's still likely to be better than both Leaf and Nanna. Kudos to you if you get the reference.

Paperblade Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 +5 Speed to Nanna >>> Minor benefits like 5 more HP growth or a better sword for the 2 enemies that Delmud will be fighting in Ch. 6 prior to just buying one of the dozen A rank Swords I had Lakche and Celice get from their parents Beo does get props for being much easier to make.

SaraJaye Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Twas a bit of a tough call between Finn and Azel, but I voted for Azel because I love having a Nanna with higher healing magic and Delmud with a Wind Sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
