Your favorite character of each class?

[Shadow Mir]

Lord: FE9 Ike (Not really my favorite, but main characters' late promotions bother me, tbh.)

Imperial Cavalry: Tough. I'm personally fond of Sain, Seth, Amelia, and others.

Myrmidon/Swordmaster/Trueblade: Joshua and Lloyd

Fighter/Warrior/Reaver: Nolan and Barst; don't care for most of the rest.

Armor Knight/General/Marshall: Oswin, DOHga, and Gatrie.

Soldier/Halberdier/Sentinal: Aran by default, as I don't really care for his competition.

Bird laguz: Naesala.

DAGRON laguz/Manakete: Nasir.

Berserkers and beast laguz were omitted because I'm not fond of the classes as a whole.

Hmm... one for how much I enjoy using them, one for the character.

Lord: Hector in each case.

Cavalier-type: ZealotOscar for use, Kieran for amazement.

Myrmidon: Oh crap, I don't use many of these. Stefan for usability, FE6 Karel for the loveliness.

Fighter: Barst for use (crikey, he's good), Bartre for awesome.

Mercenary: Dieck for use, Greil for awesome.

Berserker: Toss up between Gonzo and Largo for personality, so I'll give Gonzo use and Largo personality.

Pegasus Knight: I'm going to cheat and say Elincia for usability, and then Marcia for fun.

Wyvern Rider: Miledy for use, Haar for being a badass.

Sniper: Duuuh, well I like the GBA sniper animations, but I don't think I actually care much for any of the archers. FE10 Shinon/Shinon again?

Genral: Oswin/Tauroneo (NB: Resolve General almost put Tauroneo ahead of Oswin for fun to use too)

Mage/Sage/Archsage: Levin. Levin. Levin.

Bishop: Ellen/Renault - Crazy luck and getting to do so much healing she promotes ages before anyone else makes Ellen very enjoyable.

Valkyre: Any Valk with canto, and then L'archel.

Thief: Asthol, for being a handsome devil. Utility-wise, any thief that joins early and doesn't get oneshot on the chapter they join is cool to me.

Laguz/Mamkute: Giffca, in both cases.

[whitewings ilia]

Okay, for me.....

LORD : I choose Sigurd. He can kill and munch enemies by himself . I like Hector, Ephraim, and Krom, too.

PALADIN : SETH! SETH! SETH! SIRIUS! SIRIUS! SIRIUS! Need I say more about that person?

CAVALIER : Kent, Hardin (FESD), Luke and Rody (FE12)

KNIGHT/GENERAL: Hmmm.....actually, i don't like this class. Maybe Draug and MU (FE12).

For General, reclass Sedgar (FESD). Look at that defense stat.

PEGASUS KNIGHT: Shiida, Catria (FE12) and Florina. Because Shiida has Wing Spear, Catria is a goddess, and Florina is the cute one.

FOOT HEALER : Lena (FESD) and Malicia (FE12).

FIGHTER/WARRIOR/PIRATE/BERSERKER: Barst (FESD and FE12), MU Male (FE12) and Roro.

ARCHER/SNIPER: Innes, Ryan (FE12), Wil, Rebecca, and Louise.

THIEF/ROGUE/ASSASSIN : Matthew and Gaia for the thief, Jaffar for the assassin.

MONK : Lucius and Artur

MAGE/SAGE: Lute, Pent, Nino, and Katarina.

MYRMIDON/ SWORDMASTER: MU Fem (FE12), Joshua and Marisa.

MERCENARY/HERO : MU (FE12), Gerik.

MOUNTED HEALER: Priscilla.

MOUNTED BOW : <3 WOLF <3 and Rath.

SHAMAN/DRUID/SORCERER : Canas and Etzel

DANCER/BARD : Ninian, Leen, and Feena

Lord: Ike

Myrmidon/SM: Like I even need to say.

Archer/Sniper: Neimi

Fighter/Warrior: Boyd (though I never use fighters)

Mage/Sage: Soren!

Cleric: Natasha (I'd have said Serra, but Natasha can promote into a Valkyrie, which = super cool, and she marries Joshua, which = even super cooler; I don't do Bishops)

Troubadour/Valkyrie: Mariabell

Cavalier/Paladin: Astrid

Nomad/Horseman: Wolf

Thief/Assassin: Colm (we'll see if Guire ends up replacing him)

Mercenary/Hero: Sevr

Villager: Cliff

Dracoknight/master/lord/whatever: Jill

Pegasus/Falcon Knight: Marcia

Priest: Celica (I know, her version of the class is completely different to everyone else in every FE game - all the others are male and can't fight- but I just don't really like any of the 'proper' Priests, and Celica's weapon set is my favourite)

Monk: Artur

Knight/General: Wendy (but, like Fighters, Knights are a no-go for me, so I hacked Wendy into a Soldier with increased caps and a critical boost - essentially a Halberdier)

Soldier/Halberdier: Nephenee

Dark Mage/Sorcerer: Sallya

Dancer: Olivie

Bird: Vika

Beast: Lethe

Dragon: Kurthnaga

Honourable mentions: Amelia because she's one of my favourites but she's the only unit of her class; Norne was just behind Neimi; Ulki was almost my favourite bird due to his actual usefulness, but Vika is all Snow Whitey and wears short shorts, so she wins.

Why do people call Micaiah a lord? She doesn't have the class, nor is she the main character of the game she appears in (that would be Ike).

Edited September 20, 2012 by Anacybele

[Integrity]

Because she's forced in literally every chapter she appears in, she promotes by storyline rather than by item, she has her own Seize chapters, she's never allowed to die or it's Game Over, she has a significant role in the plot of the entire game, because ?

What do you want here? How is Micaiah not a Lord?

Other characters fall in these categories too (though only for a certain amount of time). Sothe also has a story promotion. I don't see your point. Micaiah is only usable for like a fourth of the whole game, she does not have the actual lord class, and Ike has way more play time and a much more significant role. She is a main character/commanding character, but not a lord character. Much like Geoffrey, Elincia, Tibarn, etc.

I really should have put a note in the first post saying that Micaiah will not be considered a lord for the purpose of the thread...

[Integrity]

(though only for a certain amount of time).

Thanks for shooting your own argument in the foot, love. Note that fitting one of those categories (or fitting them temporarily) does not make a Lord, but Micaiah fits all of them all the time.

You want to argue playtime? Micaiah is in (and forced in) 10 + 3 + 2 chapters before the Tower. That's 15. Ike is in (and forced in) 11 + 2 chapters before the Tower. That's 13. Micaiah and Ike are both forced for the Tower. Micaiah is in more chapters, forced in all of them, plays an equal (if not greater) story role, and is actually on the box of the game.

I really should have put a note in the first post saying that Micaiah will not be considered a lord for the purpose of the thread...

Will you ever stop being childish? Every time I decide to myself "hey, let's get along with anacybele today" you go and say some daft shit like this.

EDIT: Follow-up question: are we /allowed/ to count Runan and Holmes as Lords? Or both Alm and Celica? Each pair has to share the spotlight for their entire game (not quite in trs; runan has more time iirc) but, much like Ike and Micaiah, they never share chapters.

lol. No, I wasn't shooting any argument down except for yours. Other characters may not be forced or have to stay alive ALL the time, but they still are, and that's what matters.

Micaiah and Ike are both forced for the Tower. Micaiah is in more chapters, forced in all of them, plays an equal (if not greater) story role, and is actually on the box of the game.

Are you sure about that? If so, I admit to being wrong here. Still, Micaiah lacks the actual lord class, and that's the one thing that keeps her from being a lord. Ike has had the lord class though, so he still is one. And Micaiah being on the box of the game makes no sense to me. Ike is the one that has to defeat most of the major villains and he has a more significant role in the plot. So why is he not on the box?

Will you ever stop being childish? Every time I decide to myself "hey, let's get along with anacybele today" you go and say some daft shit like this.

Having an opinion is not childish.

TearRing Saga is not Fire Emblem, so no. This thread was meant to be about FE only.

[Specta]

Just as a note, Alm and Celica are FE.

[Anacybele]

I know that. I was talking about Runan and Holmes.

[PKL]

Just because a character does not have the class lord, doesnt mean they arent a lord. Hint: FE10 Ike doesnt have the lord class either. He's hero and vanguard.

[Anacybele]

Just because a character does not have the class lord, doesnt mean they arent a lord. Hint: FE10 Ike doesnt have the lord class either. He's hero and vanguard.

But Ike had the lord class in FE9. So he still counts as a lord. And FE9 Ike and FE10 Ike are both still the same Ike.

To be a lord, you must have the lord class or something that's the equivalent of such. It's common sense. Light Mage/Light Sage/Light Priestess is moreso an equivalent of Mage/Sage/Archsage.
