Rate the Unit Day 27: Athena


Recommended Posts

Dat Rules

- Ratings are assumed to be on Hard 2 Mode.

- Votes need some explanation regarding their gameplay performance to be counted. If somebody else said what you want to already, quote them explicitly.

+/- ≤1 point extra regarding personality/appearance is encouraged, but no more. If you exercise your bias privileges, please do so explicitly. Also, if your vote is already a 10/10 or greater than 9 and you give a full point of bias, The score may not exceed 10!

- Numerical votes out of 10, or something proportional to it. Make it easy to calculate for my sake.

- Each ranking phase ends from 2100 to 2200 EST. 13th May start the topic again but i am not sure. Do the math if you are in another timezone!

- I will insist you do not use the "Not X" reason on any character, where X is another unit. If you do, your vote will be thrown out.

- "Recruits X" or "takes you to X chapter" arguments are explicitly banned. C'mon, people, this shouldn't need to be a rule. That's not gameplay performance.

- Assume that the character in question is being recruited.

- Similar to the "Recruits X" rule, do not use "He Comes with a Free Ridersbane" as an argument.

- I withhold the privilege to tell you your rating is bogus and demand you revise it if it breaks any of the above. I will not throw out votes anonymously, you will be informed and given a chance to revise.

Dem Bases are HUUUUUGE! 3rd highest base str in the game (well, aside from Nagi, so 4th), and other huge stats show what it's like to be a Gaiden character!

Dem growths however, are around average. Meaning that her as a pegasus knight won't be gaining much offense (well, forges, but yea), but her other hp and speed will increase to a point of evening out for mid-late game.

A Solid unit. Proof that high bases can make a good unit.

Looking at the above scores, I'd rate her 6.75 (more than Wolf/Sedgar's average), plus a bias for being a vun voman army of +1

7.75

I've used her tonnes of times, and she's never let me down. Her bases are excellent, and she's definitely a solid unit.

7 + 1 bias = 8/10

A solid unit.

Only thing she suffers at growing in is Luck and Def. Low Def is expected on a Swordfighter and Luck will really hurt her chances at using the Devil Sword and dodging without Goddess Icons. She's a worthy candidate to have your Goddess Icons as I absolutely love having her dodge better and getting her to use the Devil Sword without much backfiring. Especially this is a must on the harder difficulty settings. Anyways, someone I use in every playthrough never giving her any class changes. She's best in her standard class. She might do well as a Merc/Hero too. And she looks like Lakche too. =)

9.5/10

Athena is a chick, and can't go Merc/Hero. Ahem.

Stupid accent aside, she's not bad. A second flier is always good, and Lena does not want to handle physical weapons. Chapter 7 is a good time to fly, and she should hit Javelins fairly quickly. Too bad the Whip is Wi-fi only. At least she'll get her sword back as a Paladin.

7.5/10

Is wifi even banned in the assumption here? I mean, I can see why it'd be banned in a FE12 setting since most of us are forced on emulators by the lack of localisation on either NoA or NoE's part, but theoretically we do have SD on a cart and should be able to access a wifi shop given anywhere with wifi (e.g. a starbucks, most people's homes, etc)

Falcoknight Athena is the best kind of Athena

I'll give her a 7/10, since her rather high bases are nice for a long time, she's comparable to Ogma for quite a long stretch, until he gets hand axes.

DEM BASES. She can use armorslayer at base and can promote as soon as you get a seal. She can be a great swordmaining falcoknight if you wait til you can get a whip ( i hate waiting for a whip in the wifi shop so i usually dont). Her growths are a bit...smelly but her bases will keep her strong for practically forever. 7/10 +1 bias 8/10
