Chapter 3: 11/34 (Heroes: Elly & Miriel)

The Freebing Longcat

Standard Stuff. Chrom with Kellam on his back solo'd the entire western front, while the rest of the squad minus Fred tackled the east. Both met up and stomped the armor knights at the same time, then proceeded to smush the boss. I admit I did spend a turn playing on her to get Elly's sword rank up, but alas, it was pretty boring. Also,

Completing this, I get access to THE WORLD! Where Anna popped out and had a Second Seal for sale for 2500 wingwangs. I snagged that sucker, and proceeded to get my freebie via the Wireless->Renown zone.

No more Wireless menu for me.

Now, it's off to the Farfort, which is like a fort, but far away. I wonder what lies over there...

Donny the Cable Guy

Oh boy, recruited Donny here. I kinda like the little hick, so I trained him up a bit (all the way almost to Lv5) while shuffling Vaike and Kellam in his pockets for extra oomph. Took my time because lol, and snagged the Killer Lance because dude it's killer, and Rescue because I'm a fucking completionist.

omg virion chipped so donny could score an early kill thank you

Donny hit D-rank lances good thing he has no other classes that use lances thank you IS for that brilliant move.

Bitch cracker stole my sword.

Since I can only use 6 units here, I had to select people I care about a little bit. Game defaults me to Chrom, Elly, Lissa, Virion, Sully and Miriel. No thanks switchup the pansies.

Chrom and Elie, obviously. Lissa because she's doing alright. It's always Vaike time, Donnel because I'm masochistic right now, and Miriel because why the fuck not. Donny takes Kellam's Javelin and Iron Lance (not like Kellam really cares)

Chrom/Miriel stomped some shit, Elly/Donny did the same, and gave Donny the kill because lulz legendary Marth losing to chump farmer.

Lissa you suck at gaining good levels.

BAN DARK MAGE AND NOSFERATU TANKING!!!!!!!

What's the best way of taking out Grima quickly?

Lucina+Chrom?

26 str cap. 27 str cap. +2 tonic, +2 pair-up. Enough speed with support to double 33 spd Grima. 73.75% dual strike rate (capped skl, A rank support, dual strike skill)

17 Damage from Chrom per attack. Lucina 13 Damage per attack.

60 Damage max in one round of combat. Plus, Grima attacks during enemy phase before any other enemy.

Is doubling a problem? Problomatic Endgame enemies.

Beserker 30 speed, Valkyrie 33 spd, Falcon Knight 34 spd (+2 spd), Assassin, 36 spd, Griffon Rider 30 spd, Hero 30 spd, Trickster 32 spd, Dark Flier 32 spd (+2 spd),

+2 spd tonic, +6 S rank support from myrimdon, +2 spd pair-up. So, only a few can double Assassins, but pretty much everyone can double the rest.

Wow, this game might be possible to beat on hard mode without promotions.

Edited April 10, 2013 by Vorena

[Elieson]

Endgame grima has 153 hit and 45 def/41res counting his Ire tile.

Considering my defense is balls, I need a dodge tank to end all dodge tanks.

My plan: marry Donny and Panne somehow...without panne entering combat (sparky squares and seeds of trust I gotta somehow acquire a ton of) and marry Elly to Yarne, in order to have a Morgan with Underdog.

Yes I need underdog

--Edit ch5-17 (donnel & sully)

Miniature lance / Kneader

I tried to rush but kept getting held up at choke points. Stupid Fliers.

Decent levels all around and no deaths, though Kellam surprised me with two 80~ dodges. Donny hit lv 9, with sully in his pocket, and now has C lances to use my killer lance. Miriel hit C as well, no restarts. Sweetness.

Afterwards, got to the world map and found two Anna shops, selling a *speedwing, second seal, and also a *Rescue staff. Because I derped and used a rescue with Lissa instead of heal, twice. I bought then all. 748 G left.

* means it was on sale. I'm a smart fucking shopper.

[Hudder368]

Are you going to be putting all the chapter details in your first post?

[Elieson]

I suppose I could. When I get home I'll so so.

But first.

Skirmish 1: Northroad vs. Pegasus Knight & Pegasus Knight

Considering I found Ephraim's Lance earlier, I decided to take Donny for a trip down reclass lane. He and Kellam solo'd on a fort solo'd everything and Donny jumped from 11.42 to 15.62->3.01 Mercenary (even Kellam gained an albeit shitty level), two bullion (s), two Steel Lances, and Twilight Sparkle gave me a bit of free experience (14) and another Aversa's Night.

Defeating two enemies in the skirmish net'd me a Talisman and 3,000 loot. I won't normally do tons of skirmishes but man I just wanted the prize.

Donny	Merc	3.01	34	19	3	17	23	27	19	11	
E 1/2
Armsthrift, Underdog, Aptitude. 

Yes, he'll make a fine husband for panne, considering she must remain 5.00 for the remainder of the game :/

Chapter 6: 8/91 (Heroes: Vaike & Lon'Qu)

You'll join my army for a bag of...candy? & Wait, he's a she? What the? Who the? How the? Why the?

Considering I deployed Maribelle without any inventory whatsoever, I'm amazed that I managed to pull this shit off. Elly, Chrom, Kellam, Lissa and Donny on the left, Miriel, Vaike, Lon'Qu, Maribelle and Sully on the right. I literally didn't even touch the inventory menu or deployment guide, I just hit go, and proceeded to stomp. Recruited Gaius and had Kellam score the final kill on Validar. Panne traded Donny her Beaststone and stood behind him in the choke point, because Donny chokes points (and needs to grind his support rank with her not actually bolstering his stats.

I should have allowed her to be PairUp fodder, this is gonna suck getting Donny to marry Panne.

Time to upload some stats.

Edited April 11, 2013 by Elieson

[Elieson]

Alright I've officially logged everything in the OP.

[Book Bro]

Where art Gaius' stats?!

This is entertaining to read.

[Elieson]

Ahh, Gaius is at base 5.38 I forgot to mention it! Thanks for the catch, mysterious Gaius-badge'd user!

[Dark Sage]

I like how Donnel has a level lead on everyone already.

(Also totally should've tried out Fighter!Donnel)

[Elieson]

Double posting, but it's a legitmate update/question that I want seen :/

Considering Elly is lv.17, and I've got 2 Second Seals laying around, I'm contemplating a reclass for her.

She's almost at C-swords and at C and a half Tomes.

I'm torn between Myrmidon, Cavalier, and Wyvern Rider (Primarily for the skeelz).

Users feel like picking my first reclass, go! I'll add it into a poll.

P.Edit

Fighter Donnel comes next, because it's pretty obvious that I'll have him hit lv10 Merc pretty quick.

Edited April 11, 2013 by Elieson

[Dark Sage]

Stack a bunch of avoid on her.

So basically go both Wyvern Rider and Myrmidon at some point. Mercenary too.

[Elieson]

That's the plan.

N> Avoid+10, Tantivy, Patience, Outdoor Fighter too.

I'm planning on marrying Donny!Yarne so Morgan can have a slightly higher speed cap and access to Underdog for the +15.

It's pretty crucial that I hit highest AVOID possible, and with my math, Donny!Yarne-!Morgan with those 5 avoid skills should be somewhere around 133 Avoid (to the 153 Hit of our generous endgame boss), as a barbarian.

Yea...I hope my math is correct.

[Redwall]

I voted for Wyvern. Avoid-stacking sounds like a plan.

You shouldn't be OHKOed by Grima even with unpromoted units; it might be less trouble if you simply Brave-attacked him using someone with whom Chrom has an A- or S-support (perhaps a Myrmidon Lucina might have enough Spd to double?), then use Physic and Dance. Due to Dual Strikes bypassing Pavise, Chrom should be OK at his unpromoted caps since he'll get up to eight Dual Strikes this way if the lead attacker is sufficiently fast. Hit rates against Grima aren't a problem due to Anathema and Hex.

Hit rates against Grima aren't a problem due to Anathema and Hex.

With Olivia as mom, Lord!Lucina and Myrmidon!Lucina both have a speed cap of 31 to Grima's 33 base. Considering a Speed tonic ties her up, and an A rank support from Chrom gives her [3+2+2] (Class + Stat + A-rank support) speed bonus, she'll double just fine and will have 40 speed to do so, couple'd with two Dual Attack bonuses. Lucina can also access +2 Speed via Pegasus Knight, so there is that.

It's the 61 ATK that I'm worried about, because tier1 units cap HP at 65, (60+5 from HP tonic/whatever items) and there will be other shit to deal with like the unlimited mooks.

[Da Bear]

personally i think You should worry more about reaching Grima. level 20 promoted enemies that swarm your unpromoted units without a second thought.

[Elieson]

Oh I'm plenty worried about them too. I'm still unsure of how to reliably handle it but I won't know for sure until I get there~

Also also also, unless things change in a few hours, I'm going Rider :0

[Elieson]

Alright, entering Ch7, I nabbed supports all over the place

Sully-Vaike   B
Lon'Qu-Vaike   C
Kellam-Elly   C
Donny-Lissa   C

As well as reclassing Elly to Wyvern Rider and her glorious E-rank in Axes.

Char   lv.ex   HP   Str   Mag   SK   Spd   Luk   Def   Res
Elly   1.00   36   21+2   12   14   17   11   13   5

I didn't realize she'd have 27 attack with a plain Bronze Axe and enough speed to double everything on the map (bar the two thieves)...shit that means she can ORKO everything on the map (thieves if she procs +1 STR). God damn I guess E axes isn't that bad for right now.

Shuffled inventory so Miriel holds Ricken's Elwind as well as Thunder and Fire, holds the Wind. Chrom has Alm's Blade because in two or three swimgs he hitd B swords, and a 15 MT sword on his 15 Str will be pretty fun. Sully has the Miniature Lance because until I get a unit with ridiculous luck I don't really care about saving it, and uhh, that's about it I thought this would be more creative

Stahl found an Imposing axe in the Barracks. That fcking axe, thinks it can just impose his way into my barracks and get away with it. How rude.

[Elieson]

Chapter 7: 4/95 (Heroes: Sully & The Vaike)

If only I had 4 defense...

Before anything, barracks net'd me another Log. THESE FUCKING TREES MAN. THEY SPEAK TO ME. THEY SAY, LET YOUR HOARSBIRDZ TAKE US TO THE SKYZ!

Poor Heirarch. Treated like a farm animal and OHKO'd by a fighter with 19 atk, when he has 16 HP. 4 Def would've let him at least skim by (or require a second hit), but math man. All that age, no combat prowess.

Anyway, I couldn't have completed this much faster unless I sent W.Rider!Elly right into the fray of archers and shit. Got levels all around, and even used Sully for a bit (May as well have her pass down some sort of skill to KYJelly if Vaike's gonna make her. Didn't use Donny at all. Deployed Ricken and Miriel and they both saw some combat omgz Ricken gained 12 exp. Kellam hit C-lances,

Aghhhhh, took a few tries too. Gaius couldn't dodge a 40% hit for 5 tries...I'm so fail kill me now.

OMG CORDELIA SHOWED UP AND FAILED TO FLY FAST ENOUGH TO ENTER ANY COMBAT BOO HOO. wait a sec. She's flipping out.

"I can still hear the screams...the screams...I should've stayed".

----wait I just checked Lon'Qu's supports and he supported Miriel, and I just realized, I haven't been adding Lon'Qu to my stats charts. wtf am I on?---

We're from Woodham...AIEEEEEEEEEEEE

Before anything, Barracks gave me a Seliph's Blade.

OH MY GODS THIS CHAPTER has nothing of value. Good thing before the battle, I sold my Bullion M from Ch7. Gave me a few spare G's to save up for more Second Seals.

except some exp and a Seraph Robe.

Also nick'd a few supports. Careful placement let me earn a C-rank with Donny/Panne. Alright, just a few more to go!

I actually managed to get a few levels here and there, but pretty much rushed the chapter (I could've probably done it in 4 with a teeny bit more effort). Sadly, a villager was lost during the harsh battle, but his memory will live on in the Log that his friend left to me. God damnit Woodham they let me in for Christ's sake! And they even gave me a Blessed Bow. They didn't even know me.

I don't know this world anymore.

[Da Bear]

Rock the house with a brave sword!!

[Elieson]

Hai guys I didn't forget about this I just never get PC access to update my logs.

Quick recap;

I got the Brave Sword. I just defeated Gangrel. Reclassed Elly to a Myrmidon (now has Tantivy and Avoid+10), and have other units quickly approaching lv20.

I watched libra die, and laughed maniacally as he did. I even turned on battles just to watch the arrow pierce his horrid manwoman body. In slow motion. I even reset just to watch him die again.

Recruited everyone else. Haven't done Anna's chapter (saving it as grind material for Morgan). Hit every shiny square since ch8, and got crap crap crap more Aversa's night, more crap, a Kris's Confect and a little crap. <Crap_translated_as_weapon_proficiency>

Donny is capping left and right at lv12 Merc. Elly cap'd Str as a Rider and likes her C swords as a Myrm again.

Chrom married Olivia after 17 turning Gangrel.

I now have over 30,000 GOLDEN QUOINZE.

(Fuck why did I have Olivia marry Chrom again? Ahhhh it might have been for Peg&Myrm line for Speed+2 and Avoid/Vantage)

Aghhhh umm oh yea I married Sully and Vaike.

Ummmmmmmm using lonQu an Cordelia a lot, and Tharja/Gaius are pretty entertaining as a pair.

Donny x Panne are A rank (through a magic Seed of Trust I stumbled on, as well as a single shiny square and a few unsupported battles where Donny has 100% hit anyway).

Ahhhhh I haven't done any more skirmishes, haven't shopped at Anna's, and haven't forged anything yet. I didn't even die until Gangrel's Chapter (when I realized Elly didn't have a sword when I rexlassed her mid battle and she got slammed by a few lances to the face Edwardo style.

Stats coming in a little bit.

libra is dead, whores
