PKL Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Katarina is my favorite Est. Aura makes her not a pain to train, can use staves and has a Drill Ground to train in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Refa Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 That's like me saying that Briggid is my favorite Est. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKL Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 That's like me saying that Briggid is my favorite Est. Well, does she fit the archetype? Katarina is an Est, the Wiki says so :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaMonkey Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 (edited) It would seem that most of the people here don't know who the actual Est characters are... Oh, and Pelleas is mine. Well, does she fit the archetype? Katarina is an Est, the Wiki says so :P Which is funny, as I have the list of Ests open in another tab, and Katarina isn't mentioned...

Samias Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I never really considered Farina an Est since her starting chapter is so favourable for her and she's already level 12, underleveled but not too underpowered to train quickly. The next few chapters just hand her exp too... Farina is a breeze to train compared to Nino. L'arachel is my favourite mega underleveled unit to train. Pelleas is fun too, since he has his own semi-personal siege tome in Fenrir (Lehran pretty much doesn't exist) and he gets two of them.

I'm looking at this http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Archetype scroll down to Est and you'll find it says Katarina. Besides, her growths, bases and jointime screams Est.

Rapier Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I consider Pelleas and Kurthnaga as Ests because they join pretty late with mediocre stats but turn out to be great in the end. I also like Tiltyu and would use her more if not for her 5 mov. Corple/Sharlow are worth it too, can't have enough staff users in FE4, especially if their rank is high (in Corple's case, he may even be able to ressurrect a fallen character, but chances are this didn't happen with the player) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeDom Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Pelleas for being the only playable character in the Tellius Saga to specialize in dark magic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldrick Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Sara for staving, Farina for being easy to use and Est because bias. There seem to be quite a lot of Est archetypes in New Mystery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Sunshine Sprinkles Posted December 7, 2013 Author Share Posted December 7, 2013 If Donnel qualifies as Est esque, then my vote goes to Ross; trainign him up's actually feasible, and his competition isn't much better. He's pretty lovable as well; pure fiery determination, just like his old man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM ME MARIANNE ART Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Ross and Donnel aren't Est archetype. They come at the beginning of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Gaiden!Est. She joins late, but she gets to promotion very quickly because of mummies. Falcon Knights have great stats and movement and basically OHKO undead units, which makes even a very late one pretty handy to have. Plus she saved me like 10 turns in a draft because SHE OPENED A DOOR. 10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 (edited) I'm looking at this http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Archetype scroll down to Est and you'll find it says Katarina. Besides, her growths, bases and jointime screams Est. Her story screams "Obvious Nino stand in". She's an Est confirmud Therefore, my favorite Est is Averstsa Edited December 7, 2013 by Eradicator Boner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJWalker Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Best Est is definitely Lewyn!Corple. Search your heart. You know it to be true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Mir Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Best Est is definitely Lewyn!Corple. Search your heart. You know it to be true. lolcorple But seriously, I just have no use for a level 1 healer who comes 1 1/2 chapters from the end of the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookofholsety Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 the only one i can think of using with any particular regularity is Pelleas. i guess Tiltyu kind of sort of counts too? idk defining FE archetypes has always been pretty arbitrary and i couldn't be bothered agonising over who fits what definition (it never even occurred to me that Tiltyu could be interpreted as one until now) ...wait, the wikia counts Katarina as one? i knew the wikia was extremely inept and all but ahahahahaha oh wow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapier Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 lolcorple But seriously, I just have no use for a level 1 healer who comes 1 1/2 chapters from the end of the game Levin!Corple can use staves and HOLSETY. Of course, Levin!Sety is much better, comes earlier and will do both. That's why Claude!Corple is better. Can't have enough staffbots, anyway.

I mean, hey, even if it's "you can deploy everyone" Genealogy of the Holy War, I have limits as to what is and isn't useful, and my definition of "useful" does NOT include a level 1 healer who joins 1 and a half chapters before the end of the game (where I'd already be set in who I am going to use, in all likelihood) AND needs to spam 10 use staves to do much of anything.

How on earth can you compare a Lvl 3 (or 5) base class unit you acquire in Ch 18 (that's FE11 Est) with a Lvl 7 pre-promote? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why Claude!Corple is better. Can't have enough staffbots, anyway. And Sharlow has Elite and gets a staff that makes the enemies go nuts. Valkyre!Corple's 30K staff allows you to pull a suicide run on Ishtar in Chapter 10, I guess. Sharlow's 30K staff can at least save you some actual grief by berserking, say Sleep Stave users.

Espinosa Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Lilina is workable with some effort. And if Zeiss is somehow still an Est, then him definitely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azura Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Nino because she is adorable and her supports with Rebecca/Florina/Jaffar are really cute Ewan because I like to imagine him as a midget shaman/druid who barely reaches the waist of the enemy fighters. That picture always manage to make me giggle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
