MidnightShade Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) Alright, any and all comers may try my challenge! The rewards are fame in this thread and self confidence! XD Here are the rules: I: You may only use iron, steel, and killer weapons. The only exceptions are bosses, which you may use any weapon on. Also, you may use whatever weapons the characters come with when you get them. II: You may use the enemy skirmishes only once between rounds. Monster control glitch usage is allowed, but that will be your only level. III: If your character faints, regard him as dead. You may not restart the level. If your lord dies, you may restart only once. Otherwise, it is regarded as a permanent game over. IV: You may have only one of each unit type. The rest may never see combat unless the other unit dies. V: Arena use is legal. Bonus: Try not to spend more then 10,000 gold. Bonus: Keep units on the tier you get them, disregarding the lords, (not that they are very effective anyway compared to the rest). This will make it much harder, but not impossible. I tried it, obviously, otherwise I wouldn't challenge you. Winners: Me, in all technicality! Any one want to take the challenge?

Integrity Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Have you actually tried this? It sounds insanely tedious, especially if you throw in the bonus reqs. Actually, it sounds impossible if you throw in the bonus reqs because there aren't enough iron weapon drops to actually kill things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saifors Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Bonus: Keep units on tier one. This will make it much harder. uh In case you don't know if that is done the final boss will be impossible because you need the sacred twin weapons, which are S rank in other words not usable. (just thowing in a bit of info for you that you might want to change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) Hypothetically you could train Myrrh on all the bosses after she joins and use her to kill Mortii. EDIT: Also he only says not to promote units, not to not use prepromotes~ Edited May 11, 2012 by Integrity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) The using only irons without spending money is impossible. You only get 3 Iron Swords, 2 Iron lances (3 on Eph Route), 2 fire tomes, and one each of lightning, flux, heal and iron bow. It's not enough to get you through the game. edit: i'm stupid integ already said this Edited May 11, 2012 by General Horace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Where's the poll option for 'too stupid'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightShade Posted May 12, 2012 Author Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) I was going to revise this. I was rushed. Also, I have come to the opinion that people are brave when they are hiding behind a computer screen. Just sayin'. To the people whose comments were positive, (General Horace, Integrity, and Saifors), thank you for your time. I took your comments into consideration. Where's the poll option for 'too stupid'? Nice. Quite mature of you. Edited May 12, 2012 by MidnightShade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) i've come to the opinion that people are much more willing to resort to insults when they know that they know they have no counterargument just sayin' this actually sounds fairly easy - the only issue would be "no promotions". and to get by that i can off units (kill franz when i need seth/duessel, etc). besides you can beat the final chapter with all unpromoted units with the weapon limit, it's easier to avoid skirmishes than to use them i'm not 100% sure that it's possible with only 10k gold but it should be Edited May 12, 2012 by Camtech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightShade Posted May 12, 2012 Author Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) It wasn't really an insult, more of a statement of facts on my end. Hell, even I'm more vocal on the web! Also, this is just to keep the game fresh and fun, so only do this if you think you'll enjoy it. Obviously, I suppose. XD Just let me know if you are doing it and I'll (re)start it to. Just post your chapter progress in one reply. Edited May 12, 2012 by MidnightShade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk King Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 "IV: You may have only one of each unit type. The rest may never see combat unless the other unit dies." Does this mean you can use Franz, Seth, and Duessel? Since they are all different classes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this mean you can use Franz, Seth, and Duessel? Since they are all different classes? Yes, since you cannot leave the class the character is on at the time of acquirement. If you wish, you can use any of the units in the same class range as long as they are not the same exact class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I might zip through the game once on a weekend to see how this is for fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) okay fine let's do this. I'll even put the logs in this thread right now. EDIT: Clarify for me before I get too far in this challenge (which is actually pretty easy now that we have better weapons): equivalent tiers for magic/staves are what? Up to C rank?

CrashGordon94 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 I think it's worth mentioning that the "no money" and "no promotions" rules are listed as bonuses, which would suggest they're optional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 The bonus challenges were pretty pointless if they made the game actually impossible, Crash, which they did before the revision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashGordon94 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 That's a fair cop and I accept it, I just felt it needed to be pointed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) I don't think that fact went over anybody's head, but fact of the matter is they shouldn't even have been there if they made the game impossible to finish, which is why we pointed them out. I don't even think that whole dialogue needed to happen. ;/ EDIT: and go also nobody is going to die, period P: 2 turns clear no shit, seth 1: 4 turns clear didn't use the silver lance but seth's fight with the boss was all WHAT IS A 78 HIT LOL seriously he missed three times in a row AM using Gilliam am NOT using Franz 2: some turns idk like 5ish 2x Iron Sword bought, so call that 920 gold spent AM using Garcia am NOT using Ross because pointless waste of money 3: 10 turns clear got the two irons chests for smart AM using Neimi because why not MIGHT BE using Colm except obviously for picking because why now stop and wait for instruction on magic and staves and Myrrh. EDIT2: lol the vote says 50/50 split even though we're 1 for 2 now i count for two people EDIT3: nah man fuck it lighting and fire are legit at least 4: 7 turns clear seth go up gilliam hang back 5: 7 turns clear god seth you're sexy joshua get, might use him dunno 5x: MY PLAN MANIFESTS: 36 turns clear since i evidently cannot use reginleif and cannot use orson because seth it's a good thing i didn't use franz because KYLE GET TOTALS, entered combat? Eirika, Lordette: Has Seth, Paladin: Has Franz, Cavalier: Has not Gilliam, Armor: Has Moulder, Cleric: Has not healed Vanessa, Pegasus: Has not (passing that to tana for better combat potential) Garcia, Fighter: Has Ross: no Neimi, Archer: Has Colm, Thief: Has not Artur, Monk: Has Lute, Mage: Has not Natasha, Cleric: Has healed Joshua, Myrmidon: Has not Ephraim, Lord: Has Kyle, Cavalier: Has Forde, Cavalier: Has not Orson, Paladin: Has not Edited May 12, 2012 by Integrity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrashGordon94 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 When you say weapons they start with, what exactly does that extend to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightShade Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share Posted May 13, 2012 (edited) It extends to only the ones they have in their inventory. Edited May 13, 2012 by MidnightShade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
