dondon151 Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I think you got falco and draco confused in the first sentence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defeatist Elitist Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) FE9 Weapon Knight -> Paladin promotions are pretty fucking epic, since on top of being the best class in the game anyway because of huge Mov, OP Canto and just being good, but the stat boosts are also pretty good compared to other promotions, and you get a free weapon type of your choice, even if that does basically just mean you get free axes. Can't really think of the worst right now. Edited December 18, 2011 by Defeatist Elitist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack of the Dead Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 best: fe7 cav->paladin. stat gains aren't all that amazing IIRC but you get complete manipulation of the weapon triangle. the only problem was finding places for all the weapons. All around good unit. worst. fe10 rogue-> whisper Sothe was pretty close to being useless around the endgame for the times I played through. then again so was micaiah.

X-Naut Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 From the games I've played (FE6+7): Best: Mercenary -> Hero (6), if only because they desperately needed WTC and 2-range. Myrmidon -> Swordmaster is a runner-up for +30 crit. Worst: Fighter -> Warrior (7), because no Speed and only E Bows sucks. Then again, all promotion bonuses took a nosedive in the transition from 6 to 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightli Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Worst: FE5: Lord -> Prince "I FINALLY managed to get this wimp to promotion; maybe he'll start not su-" "...goddamn it Leaf" Best: FE4: Prince -> Master Knight "Blargh, not like Leaf's going to improve all that much...thank god he got a moun- holy crap those promotion boosts holy crap those caps holy crap that weapon selection" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacLovin Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 How about Nomad to Ntrooper Thank god they now have 1 range melee options now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) Thank god they now have 1 range melee options now! Not very many units have 2-range melee options. (yes, I tease) Edited January 17, 2012 by Integrity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13th Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Best: Cavalier->Paladin (FE6 and 7 only) Gaining WTC is good. Especially when you promote Kent and Sain in LHM and then Iron Axing it to S-Rank.. Honorable Mentions Eirika to Horse!Eirika: A better Swordmaster, no crit, yes horse. Hector to Hector v2: Hector benefits from this. Swords are useful, even if axes are better. Plus he's one of the few who can wield those stupid blades. Worst: Ewan to Shaman He doesn't have the CON for those tomes. Keep him on Anima Magic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacLovin Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 How about fe5 Theif-Dancer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 When you look at the stats alone yeah. Nothing beats Leaf's promotion, sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 How about fe5 Theif-Dancer? And the worst? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapier Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Best: Falconknights, because of flying horses with staves. Worst: Thief Fighter, wtf. I don't even know if dancers can promote to Dancer Fighters or Spoony Bards or whatever, but if they do, I'll pick that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) Dancers don't promote. I'm not sure what you're complaining about with Thief Fighters getting Pursuit (FE4) / Ambush (FE5). Edited January 17, 2012 by Othin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anouleth Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Dancers don't promote. Couldn't Lara promote a second time (or third time if she promoted to Thief Fighter before promoting to Dancer) to Thief Fighter? That's what SF seems to say.

Ϲharlie Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Lara is kind of a weird exception, though. She actually "demotes" when she becomes a dancer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) Lara is kind of a weird exception, though. She actually "demotes" when she becomes a dancer. In terms of stats, sure. But it seems more like she's shifting between class series than promoting to the next stage of a specific series. One could call it a highly limited form of reclassing.

I don't see how Ambush helps them, but Pursuit is reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
