rexcalibur Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Should I use Illyana? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peppy Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Depends what type of run you are doing... Personally though, I have used Ilyana quite a bit in my playthroughs. She can turn out great and you will also have a Rexbolt User! She is harder to use when you are playing on harder difficulties but i managed to use her in Hard Mode... It is your choice though...

Sunwoo Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 The real question is: do you WANT to use her? Because if you want to use a character, there are ways to make them usable. When I feel like using Ilyana, I just BEXP abuse a few points of speed so that she doesn't fall behind. So, really, do you want to use her?

Snowy_One Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Do you want to use her? If so, then use her. Honestly, unless you're trying to be a LTC player, you should be able to use every character fine unless you get horribly screwed (but that's not the characters fault).

CrashGordon94 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 If you like Easy Mode, she'll likely impress you there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Laufeyson Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 She works better if shes got PoR transfers. Her speed is pretty low as well. But shes usable. Not fantastic but usable. Besides, rexbolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HF Makalov Fanboy Kai Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 no. she got nerfed pretty badly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacLovin Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 You can, but be prepared to sink resources and forges. But Rexbolting the dragons is epic fun. In EM/NM she's easier to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Laufeyson Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) In EM/NM she's easier to use Even then, she requires a bit too much love and probably nearly all your speedwings. Funny how i have the patience to train Fiona but dont give two shits about Ilyana... Edited March 15, 2012 by Florina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how i have the patience to train Fiona but dont give two shits about Ilyana... Really? I think I've capped her speed in every playthrough (3, one on each mode) and she's never gotten a speedwing or reset abuse....Granted she has a +spd transfer, but that's all bexp abuse in fe9. Bexp to 99 + first turn reset abuse would cover an extra 2 points if I felt like it so still no speedwing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Laufeyson Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 .Granted she has a +spd transfer, but that's all bexp abuse in fe9. Bexp to 99 + first turn reset abuse would cover an extra 2 points if I felt like it so still no speedwing. lol thats probably why. I had a pretty good Ilyana transfer and one run, she ended up almost identical to her PoR self. (Read: not useless and actually contributing.) So its kinda hit or miss. Like i said, she really likes having transfers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much sums my thoughs about Ilyana. I suppose she can take an early promotion and resolve to kill armours if you didn't get thani Hey that is quite possible in an HM draft...

Zanarkin Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Should I use Illyana? Out of bias yes. She is pretty awesome when trained properly (you know, maybe some battle save abuse but mostly capping her good stats early on and bexping her for speed lvl ups). She is mostly for normal mode though. also if you train her, you get to use that awesome rexbolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whase Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 she can be tough to train, but IMO it's usually worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Purple_Knight Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Why not she's pretty okay not terrible or anything might wanna do a little resetting for speed though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anouleth Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 You should not use Ilyana. Even amongst Sages, Soren is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RNG Princess Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Yes I love training Ilyana ;w; although she's difficult in hard mode ^^' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dondon151 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 she can be tough to train, but IMO it's usually worth it. so like does this mean that training any unit is worth it to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whase Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 so like does this mean that training any unit is worth it to you how do you mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard Hughes Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 so like does this mean that training any unit is worth it to you Does it really matter who rapes the game when just about anyone can do it? Others just do it with less spoonfeeding than others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anouleth Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 how do you mean? Because the majority of units in FE10 require less effort than Ilyana and end up better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy_One Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 so like does this mean that training any unit is worth it to you If he wants to use that unit, then yes. If he doesn't, then no. He should pick the units he wants to use, not the ones that you consider to be the 'best'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanarkin Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) If he wants to use that unit, then yes. If he doesn't, then no. He should pick the units he wants to use, not the ones that you consider to be the 'best'. He's asking for a reason however. Dondon isn't out of place in saying that ilyana is bad. He's merely saying that the effort put into her is not worth it. Which might be what TC wants to know. If he wanted to use her, just to use her, he probably wouldn't be asking.

Elieson Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 how do you mean? He means, "if a unit is tough to train, they are worth it in the end", as in "a" refers to any unit. Which is kinda incorrect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
