aku chi Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Except that Gamble doesn't assure a critical hit since he can still hit. If Zihark has 100 hit and 50 crit, he has a 50% chance of hitting and a 50% chance of critting; if he has 50 hit and 100 crit, he has a 50% chance of missing and a 50% chance of critting. The first option is obviously superior. Are you aware that overkill Hit is taken into account with Gamble? That it's possible to have >50% hit when using Gamble?

CrashGordon94 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Yeah, I had it once on Rolf and he had Hit in the 60s and 100% crit with a Killer Bow when I used it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if that's the case, I'm not willing to have my hit rates stoop to Gonzales level for 100 crit, ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer7625 Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 Brom is good on the team and really can help Boyd with his Water Support, while at the same time Brom gets some extra strength from Boyd. As for Gamble, it has helped Zihark open up some walls in the opponent's line and let my Palidin's break through. If a skill can help Zihark get an even better chance at taking out a General, without having to use an Armorslayer, then isn't it possibly worth it? Especially since, like I've said, he has Adept which gives him more chances to hit. Zihark has ALWAYS taken any enemy out the few times I've used Gamble.

Snowy_One Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Even if that's the case, I'm not willing to have my hit rates stoop to Gonzales level for 100 crit, ever. That's perfectly fine. For all the SM wrath, guard, adept, and vantage are all outright superior to gamble. Most skills are. It just annoys me to see people say 'Gamble is outright worthless because of it's low hit' when some units can get 100+ hit even with gamble active (and 100 crit as well) before enemy evade. At best though it's a risk with a payoff decided by the individual, at worst it's just a skill that never gets activated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FionordeQuester Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Brom is good on the team and really can help Boyd with his Water Support, while at the same time Brom gets some extra strength from Boyd. Honestly though, I do have to agree with the others on the fact that Brom isn't really very useful or helpful. I've actually raised him before, with the Knight Ward, and even though he did indeed become good, I still felt like it was more effort than it's worth. I think Gatrie is a much more worthwhile investment if you want a good General. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer7625 Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 So Brom's supports and his support element don't give him any extra points above Gatrie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel M Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 (edited) So Brom's supports and his support element don't give him any extra points above Gatrie? Gatrie has earlygame, leaves, then gets benched because he has terrible Move. Brim joins when everyone is getting decent and gets benched because he has terrible Move. Any questions?
