Rules

- Ratings are assumed to be on Hard mode (LHM, EHM, and HHM). If they appear more than once, all of their appearances should be considered overall.

- To be counted, votes need some explanation regarding the difficulty in fighting them (unless they fall into the general parameters of the average rating, but reasoning is still strongly encouraged on those even if you just wanna quote people) — incredibly low scores or high scores without proper justification will not be counted. Don't put in some random text thinking it'd count as justification. Put in at least a little thought and give REAL reasoning.

+/- ≤1 point extra regarding personality/appearance is okay, but no more.

- Numbers for votes, please - not something like "Fargus/10", etc.

- Votes out of 10, or something proportional to it. Makes it easy to calculate, please and thank you~!

- Make votes easily visible, please~! ##Vote:

Eagler is the first promoted boss you fight. He can hit at both 1 and 2 range thanks to his javelin and hand axe. However, it's rather easy to turn him into Mani Katti fodder by baiting him into using his hand axe.

I'm not yet sure what to rate him. Maybe later...

He hits hard, that is undeniable, but he's still not that difficult. Assuming you've raised Erk and/or Lucius, they can take at least one hit from Eagler. Rath can take two hits at base level (I think), and a raised Kent and Sain should also be able to take at least two hits. Heck, even Wil should be able to take one hit and not be doubled. Keep squishy noncombatants like Serra and Nils out of his way. Trick him into using the hand axe, and he's Mani Katti food.

(I'm not sure if this is the case for everyone, but when I attack Eagler with someone not holding a sword, such as Rath, Erk, or Lucius, Eagler always attacks them with a hand axe, even if he had a javelin before. Only when I put a unit with a sword up against him does he use a javelin. Does this happen to anyone else?)

3/10, because he is promoted and does hit hard

I think he uses the Hand Axe because it does more damage.

Eagler can be quite the pain in the ass if you're trying to clear this map quickly, as that Javelin really hurts Lyn's chances of killing him with the Mani Katti. Plus, he's promoted, so more experience for Lyn!

5/10 for providing a decent challenge and reward

Eagler requires baiting so Lyn can kill him. Because Lyn is really the only one who wants to kill him unless you promote Walolace.

And he's got a depressing yet never expounded upon backstory.

6/10

Assuming your other units can take hits

SINCE your other units can take at least one hit, having him switch to hand axe while other magic units/Wil attack him makes him get completely destroyed by the Mani Katti...

4/10
