Urushihara Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I only played through a bit past half of Binding Blade and I had chosen Sue in favor of Shin but I'm just wondering which of the two is actually easier to train and overall the better Nomad.

Nobody Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 (edited) On Hard Mode Shin is way better. On normal mode they're comparable. Edited August 1, 2015 by Nobody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just call me AL Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Shin's definitely better. Nothing off the top of my head that I can think of as to why to not use both, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Cynthia- Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Shin's definitely better. Nothing off the top of my head that I can think of as to why to not use both, though. If you don't want to go to Sacae, should probably only use one of them because of the Exp requirement. It's worth noting that Sue's ability to accurately counter(and double) at 2 range is significantly more useful in Sacae anyway. Shin is worth using on both routes.

Shin Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Shin, on HM his bonuses put him at a clear advantage. Even on NM, his growths are better spread, the strength is nice. There's also his amazing name, no bias at all of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Sue and Shin are both good. Shin is superior though. No reason to not use both though seeing as your foot archers aren't really anything special until you get Klein and Igrene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Raven Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 because sue sucks? shin all the way he has a strength growth the thing is that Wyverns are very weak to bows (and she has high spd) and you don't need THAT much strength to do a ton of damage to manaketes Sue doesn't outright suck but Shin is wholly superior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishi Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I prefer Sue even on hard mode. But yeah Shin is definitely the better one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augestein Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Shin. Better stat spread, and he has enough of everything that Sue has over him to not be harmed by the advantages Sue has over him. Plus, he looks cooler than Sue in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSbardock84 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 I honestly don't know how good Shin is, I always use Sue she's usually one of my strongest characters. I never have Shin die but thats only because I never use him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never have Shin die but thats only because I never use him. Basically he's a stronger and better con Sue with slightly (maybe) less speed. Sue is decent overall though despite this.

Refa Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 (edited) I'd say that Sue is better on NM despite Shin having a better stat spread because of the level/weapon rank lead. It's kind of a wash, though. Shin is so much better on HM that you'd need to have a ridiculously blessed/rigged Sue (I speak from personal experience here) to compete.

Shadowflare Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Well, this depends on a couple things. Although my reaction is just use both because they are both amazing. First, Sacae or Ilia? Using both would very easily make it so you get sent to Sacae. Anyways, I use Shin more, since Sue tends to have low strength (except one run where my sue beat my shin in everything except... resistance o.0). Shin is a bit slower, but it really doesn't matter. I find that Shin doubles a lot too. So honestly, go Shin. Especially on HM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGreen3339 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 My current sue has 18 speed at level 12. Use both if u want. I recommend both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
