MajorMajora Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Just a poll to see people's preferences. Do you ship based on who you think's a good couple, or for who will give you the best shot at victory? I know that I ship for love, even when playing lunatic. I'm dumb like that.

Carter Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Definitely on who looks good together! In Awakening, I would pair units up based on hair color. I would try to get as close as I could to their official artwork hair colors, but that was difficult. I don't think that's the case this time in Fates. Now I'm just pairing units up if they look cute together or not. Kamui x Silas is definitely one of my favorites! I never marry for stats! How irrelevant! How preposterous! You cannot fight love!

Awakener_ Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Kamui x Azura for love, rest are for super babies breeding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFlames Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I always pair the two most fitting characters together (based on support conversations/my own impressions) (bonus points for favourites with my own character, of course *coughcoughSumiaandHanacoughcough*) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekalygie Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 LOVE BEATS ALL! *Ahem* I mean, yes I always pair my characters based on who makes the best couple. However in this game I just can't choose who would be the ideal partner for my F!Kamui..... Good choices are Silas, Xander, Leo and Jakob. Good change from Awakening though, where the only viable option was pretty much Chrom XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Lightning Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Always for love. Doesn't feel quite right to me otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze The Great Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Love cuz Azura is mah waifu. And in general too, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SageOfAnys Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Typically I do what feels right (or funny) in easier difficulties, mostly because dooming my units to be with units they'll hate/suffer with isn't right to me. If I'm playing Lunatic though, I'm doing semi-eugenics, semi-love, because I don't want to end up making a unit a lot less useful than they could be.

Thor Odinson Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Kinda mix of both, sometimes one, sometimes other, depending on run Unless it's a notp in terms of interaction then I won't touch it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaia Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Well they're fictional characters, so stats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvype Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Love, really. I'll rank up the child-tied one up to B with a couple of different options, and whoever has the cutest support with them up till then gets chosen. I do try not to double up on inheritable classes though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stitchedwithlove Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I more so go for love. If they're strong and whatnot then that's just a bonus. I do sort of look at stats and the like, but I mainly look at how much they love each other. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ledges Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I'm a huge sap for love, but stats are quite tempting to do for units of destruction. Oh, what to do, what to do... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thief Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Breeding mechanics is here to stay in Fire Emblem for good, huh. For me breeding is a consequence of trying to access more stories between first-generation characters. On an average playthrough, them children rarely get screen time, because grinding is boring.

Sky Soldier Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I'll admit that in FE4 I only ship units for stats/inheritance, etc. In Awakening and in this game, love all the way. But, only because the stats really don't make THAT much of a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cnkern Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 first run is love. then all runs after is skills as stats are rather irrelevant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPGatWill Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 One of the main reasons I hoped children characters were nerfed/not as important this time around was so that there'd be no issue with choosing your favorite pairing. It always bugged me that my favorite Chrom pairing (Maribelle) resulted in probably the weakest Lucina due to her being based of Chrom so neither of them had good magic growth. because ehr stats were influenced heavily by the parents, you'd have to be crazy to use Maribelle in any mode other than normal.
