Alastor15243 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Hey, I just recently got this game, and I have to say the number of female characters is overwhelming. Does the game honestly expect all of them to be paired up? That seems highly unrealistic considering how few you can take with you on a mission. I've been switching out like crazy trying to keep up with everyone and something tells me that might be a bad idea. Also, What's my chapter deadline? (no spoilers please, I'm on chapter 12 now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuxSpes Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Only Chrom needs to be paired-up before a certain chapter, which you already passed. Every other character can be paired up whenever you want and you'll get access to their kids starting from chapter 13 to the end of the game. You should focus on a core of character and grind the supports for the one you benched later if you want to get every children. No need to rush yourself or to spread your EXP among the whole cast.

Dwarfishh Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 On the bright side, you just got the last female where a pair up matters, IIRC. (Aside from anyone marrying a male MU) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tables Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) Some people in the community seem to expect you to pair up every female. I'd say the game doesn't really have any expectation on the number of females paired - it makes sense with more, or with less. But I'd say in a typical playthrough, you'll probably end up marrying off around 2-5 females. More probably means you're using too many characters, less means, uh, a Chrom/Avatar solo? Edit: The chapter deadline for Chrom is chapter 11. Nobody else has a deadline. Edited March 25, 2014 by Tables Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastor15243 Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) One last thing: My friend told me that both Chrom and the avatar have their own special child each, which appears along with their mate's other standards offspring, and that the avatar's child is the opposite gender of the avatar. So I made my Avatar female and paired her up with Chrom. Two questions: 1: Is what my friend told me true? 2: Is it still true if I pair those two together? (Edit: Corrected misleading wording) Edited March 25, 2014 by Alastor15243 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roivann Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 It's true for both. And, this isn't really a spoiler, but I'll warn you anyways, you start getting children characters after Chapter 13. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastor15243 Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 Thanks for the info, everyone. I really appreciate it. I came into this expecting something like FE4, glad I checked to make sure I was doing the right thing here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke of Dozel Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 You aren't expected to do anything except clear the map and go to the next level. Supports are purely optional, and Chrom gets married no matter what.However, certain females can't be paired. Every female after Cherche cannot be paired with anyone except the male avatar.

I married off 12 in my first and probably only playthrough. I'd killed off a lot of male characters and Maribelle, which is the main reason why it's not all of them.

Shadow Mir Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) However, certain females can't be paired. Every female after Cherche cannot be paired with anyone except the male avatar. Also, this is true of Anna, who you can get as early as after chapter 9. Back to the topic at hand: I don't really have much to say that wasn't said already, except that the avatar's child depends on the original class of the other parent.

Skynstein Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Ideally, for Lunatic (maybe Hard as well?) you focus on your team and after you finish the game you grind the rest of the characters to get the remaining children. It's not a must to get all the children to beat the game, even though you can do so, however it's impractical without grinding because there's not enough exp in the main story missions to raise all your characters (which is why it's advised to focus on certain ones).

Faye Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I think the only lady you can accidentally leave childless is Sumia, so I'd pair her up first if you haven't already. D: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Mir Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I think the only lady you can accidentally leave childless is Sumia, so I'd pair her up first if you haven't already. D: That too. She has limited marriage options (Chrom, Frederick, Gaius, Henry). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 How did we have this entire thread without anyone saying 'woman' or 'women', fucking seriously Anyway, don't feel obliged to pair every woman - after all, you shouldn't instigate a bloody paedophilic relationship (cough that dragon girl cough) just to fill out a checklist. Don't stress about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I'm just disappointed Say'ri and Anna can't be paired. It makes sense if Tiki can't be paired, and Flavia should be with Basilio canonly but the other two should maybe get pairings. It's actually possible to leave Sumia unable to be paired since she's weird and has reduced options. If you pair Chrom, Fred, Henry and Gaius then it's impossible for her to get married.

Airship Canon Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 However, certain females can't be paired. Every female after Cherche cannot be paired with anyone except the male avatar. Technically incorrect, because all the second Gen girls are after Cherche, and they can be paired with Second Gen Males in addition to Male MU. [They can only have a child if paired with MaMU though.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: The chapter deadline for Chrom is chapter 11. Nobody else has a deadline. I second this. I personally only end up pairing a handful of women in my playthroughs. The rest I usually support grind with post-game, but that's completely optional, so you shouldn't feel pressured to get all of them married if you don't really want to.

I don't know why one would expect that every woman in the game is "expected" to be paired, or that there's an overwhelming amount of them.

Refa Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I don't see what's wrong with 'lady'? Maybe there's something I'm missing... How many pairable women are there in FE13 anyways? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just call me AL Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I don't see what's wrong with 'lady'? Maybe there's something I'm missing... How many pairable women are there in FE13 anyways? 11 in Gen 1, and 6 in Gen 2. Not counting female versions of Robin and Morgan, or whoever Robin can wind up with outside of the 11 Gen 1 girls.

Don't stress about it. I actually paired her up with Donnel. Youngest in the group so it's less weird than it could be, and a very nice ability to give to Nowi's daughter (the growth rate bonus one, since she's one of the few classes that can't repromote, right?)

He's not so young for that to be problematic the other way around, but young enough to minimize the weirdness of his interest in her. But mostly I just wanted to give that stat bonus skill to Nowi's daughter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
