PM ME MARIANNE ART Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 How do their difficulties compare to FE7 HNM, Awakening Lunatic, FE8, and FE6 Normal Mode? I did the same thing when getting ready for FE6, and I'm about to play FE4, then FE5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJWalker Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 FE5 is like total bullshit on your first playthrough. You're gonna rage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamanoir Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 (edited) How do their difficulties compare to FE7 HNM, Awakening Lunatic, FE8, and FE6 Normal Mode? I did the same thing when getting ready for FE6, and I'm about to play FE4, then FE5. FE4 is really different, so it's hard to makes a fair comparison. Once you have understood how it works, it's pretty easy though. FE5 can be extremely hard if you play it like FE7. It's at least as hard as HNM, and probably harder. Abuse capture, it's the main advice I can give. Edited October 4, 2013 by shyteddie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolas Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Ch4 is first huge ragefest on first run AND THERE IS SOME EVEN WORSE!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 FE5 is only difficult at the beggining of the game or if you overuse capture in a wrong way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dondon151 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 FE5 is generally pretty easy outside of a few bullshit moments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon of Sin Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Both can be difficult for a newbie if one doesn't know anything about the inner mechanics specific to each game, but FE4 throws crutches at you more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Banzai Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Thracia is far more difficult than anything you listed there, FE4 is probably around the same difficulty as HNM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naglfar94 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I say FE5 is pretty difficult and some chapters harder than Hector hard mode!! Some chapters have unlimted enemy spawns and others have chapters with multiple enemy leaders who have leadership stars each star gives an evasion bonus+ hit% bonus to all on the battle field. Also watch out for Magic such as blizzard etc. blizzard can putt a unit to sleep when it hits. FE4 I found to not be too hard some chapters were a pain though,ones I can think of Chapter 9 Yurius and Ishtar and Chapter final chapter with Ishtar again with higher stats... Thor Hammer will always be your worst nightmare even Sety with Holsety will have problems avoiding it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadykid Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Thracia is far more difficult than anything you listed there, FE4 is probably around the same difficulty as HNM Awakening Lunatic vs Thracia? eh, after you know what you're doing (i.e. not getting stuck in BS) I don't think so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamanoir Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Awakening Lunatic vs Thracia? eh, after you know what you're doing (i.e. not getting stuck in BS) I don't think so But you won't know the first time around. That's the whole point. It is extremely punishing the first time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZemZem Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 FE5's difficulty is definitely challenging, but it's not the hardest FE ever. FE4's difficulty is around that of HNM from FE7, honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJWalker Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 FE5's difficulty is definitely challenging, but it's not the hardest FE ever. FE4's difficulty is around that of HNM from FE7, honestly. So which is the hardest according to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZemZem Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 FE8 Easy Mode, duh. FE13 Lunatic I find more difficult, but eh. Lunatic threw a bunch of shit at you, but so did FE5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batter the Beast Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 FE4 takes a bit to get used to but it really isn't bad at all, especially if you are abusing holy weapons and arguably the best character in the series.FE5 blind (if you plan on doing it) is one of the most rage inducing things ever, even more so if you don't plan on warpskipping some of the more ridiculous chapters (ch 22 comes to mind). If you know what you are doing and what each chapter has in store, it isn't all that bad. Also why aren't FE12 Lunatic/Reverse Lunatic even considered for hardest FE?

RJWalker Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I'm guessing that FE5's position as the hardest had been cemented long before FE12 came out and there's no changing that status anymore, even it's not accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 "Also why aren't FE12 Lunatic/Reverse Lunatic even considered for hardest FE?" Nobody played FE12 Honestly I put Shadow Dragon over FE5. H5 is bullshit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 FE5 is only difficult if you do it blind since the difficulty doesn't come from stats but some unexpected shit the game throws at you Otherwise it's piss easy FE4 is straight up piss easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Odinson Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Easy != unenjoyable I find the entire series pretty easy doesn't mean I don't enjoy playing the fuck out of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I think it's sort of safe to assume that in this context, easy kind of does mean = not very enjoyable, for dondon. Then again, I think I recall him saying FE11 H5 is a walk in the park for him...and he likes it more than the other games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
