I though FE12 was the cancer of FE. :/

That's what I thought too, since it wasn't good enough to be released by NOA

[Randa]

Also RD will be a nightmare too. 13 will just be a nightmare party hosted by the possessed toejam of superman 64's medicated Dev team

What? I'm so confused.

[Elieson]

What? I'm so confused.

Do you want to handle hosting games where the average unit can run just about any skill, any forge, and up to 5 skills per unit?

Superman 64 is kind of like that. a Visual Disaster. The worst N64 game ever made. I imagine hosting Fe10 and Fe13 matches will feel like playing that game.

Do I detect a hurt FE13 fan? :)

[Randa]

Sorry never had a 64. And I feel like I get confused way to easily recently. But that's why I've been against doing an FE13 meta. 10 is still iffish. But we could just incorporate the new characters into FE9 meta and call it day.

Now I have an important question about 9 meta.

What Do you guys think about limiting the dragons SP to 25 like every other units so we don't have to deal with Nihil/Renewal/combat skill, tanks?

[AnonymousSpeed]

I think we should hold off hosting FE13...indefinitely. After the FE9 tourney, maybe after enlisting a few more hosts, we could maybe run a few FE10 test matches. Until that point, why don't we stick to not-so-plastic games?

Not a clue, haven't fought with dragons or against them but once.

Dat derail, so what is the consensus for breaker skills? Banned or +15 hit/avo?

In my opinion just limit number of breakers. Breaker skills still only work on one weapon type and no breaker counters stones, so Manaketes/taguel would gain some use from that. In addition, breakers don't nullify other breakers and there are weapons that grant breaker skills anyway.

So, no more than one or two, all 5 breakers is only possible for some children an the avatar anyway, and the damage output would be reduced. Awakening really could have used a DLC Nihil scroll, eh?

I'm not speaking about fe13, I'm referring to the fe7 meta I'm proposing >_>

[Psych]

Still sticking to my guns of Max stats being better for Awakeningg, I mean you get infinite boosters and reclassing anyway.

Oh, well, sorry, I didn't hear about that

[AnonymousSpeed]

Since all my games are going quite slowly, anyone want to practice FE9 outside of the tournament?

[Baldrick]

If you think you can handle my snipers akimbo, I'm game.

EDIT: Actually I thought of a better idea. What do you say to a gimmicky team game?

I adore gimmicks. Averages+boosters custom skills as per usual?

[Baldrick]

Yeah. I would need to check something with whoever we get to host before we start, though.

Go ahead. Anyone available to host?

[Baldrick]

I want to ask Horace because of reasons, but he's already running two games already.

[General Horace]

I could do it, i'm honestly pretty free this week until Sunday.

Does anyone know if bond supports negate wrath criticals?

[Espinosa]

We haven't tested that yet, but should it occur, for now we assume they don't.

[Elieson]

I assumed that blocking crits included wrath crits

[Hawkeye]

Well wrath gets through other crit-negating things, so I assume it would get through bond supports as well.

[Quintessence]

Does anyone know if bond supports negate wrath criticals?

I'm pretty sure Bonds don't negate Wrath crts. I recall Edward crtkilling Ike while Soren being next to him.

[dondon151]

the default assumption should be that protection supports in FE9 do not block wrath criticals, instead of them blocking wrath criticals. with no evidence to support either argument, we should refer to the how most closely related mechanic functions.
