Masu Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 (edited) I cannot even say how much this guy pisses me off. I would almost leave him dead but Its against my rules to leave units to die in Fire Emblem (Unless they just suck........like MICAIAH but obviously you cant leave her dead) In my 3 hour class that I have only been in for an hour and a half so far, I have restarted chapter 13 OVER TEN TIMES ALREADY FOR ONE REASON:MATHEW. This bastard sucks so much! He gets criticaled by EVERYONE WHO ATTACKS HIM. LITERALLY. Any enemy who attacked him that had a chance for critical, HAS CRITICALED HIM. It got to one point where my Lvl 4 rebecca got to 10 strength since she got uber level ups and I used dorcas' power ring on her, next phase, MATHEW DIES. I cant take more of this, im already fuming pissed at FE and im getting Radiant Dawn back tonight and some already remember how much I rant about that. Im gonna friggin explode if Mist starts pulling Mathews.............. Im giving him three more chances. If he dies after that, HE STAYS DEAD DAMN IT AND I'LL WAIT FOR LEGAULT! STRIKE ONE.

DragonBladeSniper Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 You think you need him for chapter 16 for the stuff and for Guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSu Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 FAIL It's spelled Matthew Seriously though... How!?! Matthew almost never dies for me! He is the one doing the criticals. He never gets hit, is fairly good at killing all my enemies, despite his low strength, and in every playthrough has been a reliable staple in my force. I can let my Matthew go run around the level on his own, and he wouldn't die. Pair him up with another unit that has supports, and he's fricking Jesus for me. I guess he hates you?

Ϲharlie Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 If he keeps dying, then don't place him in a situation where he would get attacked. It's not hard to keep a thief protected. =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibari Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Maybe Faiya's just better with thieves. Everyone seems to have some unit that turns out better than others. Like a personal affinity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be true, seeing as all my thieves turn out AMAZING. That's kinda cool! Who would your person be? OIY!!! How can you make Colm suck!?! Colm is amazing! Oh wait, I'm the thief guy...

Kintenbo Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Probably. I was never good with thieves.Chad-FAIL Thief utility and potential combat ability against axe users Cath-FAIL Thief utility Mathew-FAIL Thief utility, excellent support list, and gets you the Silver Card, making the Funds rank A possible Colm-FAIL Thief utility, which becomes excellent as a Rouge, and combat ability, thanks to weak enemies Rennac-FAIL Rouge utility, which is nowhere near fail Sothe-FAIL Free stealing, if nothing else Volke-Theres no way to fail with Volke RD Sothe-JEIGAN. silly prepromote prejudicist, he makes Part 1 survivable in Hard Mode, along with thief utility (even though it's not as frequent in this game) Thats how thieves are for me. Then again I tend to get uber versions of chars most ppl say suck, like TORMOD! Really, your definition of fail is fail, to be perfectly blunt. Please don't tell me you expect thieves to be amazing in combat. Thieves aren't supposed to be these super amazing combat units that never die, their jobs are to steal, so you get items for free.

CGV Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 FAIL It's spelled Matthew [sarcasm]yes, get the spelling right![/sarcasm] But in all seriousness, I've always hated when people spell my name with one "t", but if that's how you wanna spell it, that's fine with me On topic, Matthew has always been a little better than ok, not quite as good as legault, but good enough for me to use all the way through. My thieves usually do well overall. I guess you just get RNG screwed with thieves... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Changed by VASM :( Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 (edited) Why are you haveing Matthew fight? FYI, The only two theives I use are Legualt and Volke Edited August 28, 2008 by Toa Lord Sothe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Don't have Matthew fight, it's as simple as that. Keep him away unless he can safely attack one of the brigands without risk of being stabbed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knife Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 It looks like you have a problem keeping Thieves alive. As the others have said, let them steal stuff and pick locks. They can do stuff no other unit can. So they are nowhere near fail. You shouldn't be using him much in battle anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sain_FEH Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I don't know - I never had a problem with Matthew. He OK, then again, I made sure to have him last-hit the crap out of people in Lyn's story to level him up and make him less worthless. I thought he was going to be my long-term thief, but it ended up that Legault was much much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canas_and_his_Monocle Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 My Matthew usually turns out pretty bad too. His growths are either terrible or every time I get RNG screwed. Just keep him a good 3 spaces behind your main group so he doesn`t get attacked and use him for chests/doors. Legault is far superior so soon you`ll never have to look at smelly old Matty again.
