DeSu Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Swordmasters - Limited to swords. +15% crit Berserkers -Llimited to axes. +15% crit Snipers - Limited to bows. NOTHING. Does anyone else think snipers were kinda given a disadvantage, being stuck to one weapon without the crit bonus? Anyone think it unfair?

¬_¬ Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 There's always a class that gets the short end of the stick. They're nothing special in the GBA games, Nomads/Rangers out do them. Well Rath needs more screen time. But in PoR and RD, they do get a nice critical bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crit bonus helps out in 9 and 10, so splurge, if you liek them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just call me AL Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I don't mind them, but yeah they did get the short end of the stick in the GBA games. (Kinda why I promoted Neimi into a Ranger when playing Fire Emblem VIII.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSu Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 THIS I DID NOT KNOW!!! :D!!! This makes me extremely happy! I love snipers, but sometimes I feel they aren't worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordsalmon Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Even with the Critical bonus, Snipers are still awful. Being locked to Bows is a terrible disadvantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 The only worthwhile Sniper in the GBA games is Rebecca anyway. Well, I can't say much for FE6, I only tried Wolt, and he sucked. Wil and Louise aren't any great, Neimi should be a Ranger, Innes isn't all that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSu Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 (edited) Wil is a great sniper! He's no king of dodging, but he's got the strength Rebecca lacks, as well as defense. Plus supports with Rebecca AND Dart? He's fricking beast. Edited October 7, 2008 by フアイヤ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Wil doesn't have enough speed for me. And my Rebecca's are consistently strength blessed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSu Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 Yea, his speed can be kinda iffy. But I just recently started using him because I never give him a chance, with Rebecca's awesomeness. I'm actually using both of them right now XD! Rebbeca is turning out better in speed and luck, 2 points if Hp. Will has almost twice the def, few points of str, and like 6 points of skill over her. He crits alot :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Tarrasque Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 (edited) Rolf was awesome in FE9 since BEXP made it easy to level him up (the first batch of BEXP goes to him cause the others don't need it) Shinon was undeniably the best in FE10. In FE7 I always use Rath or Wil. I tried Rebecca, she's got awesome dodge but it's just too much of it and not enough STR. In FEDS, any of your 3 Aritian cavaliers makes one badass sniper. Jamuka was great, Briggid Decent and Faval was badass. Edited October 7, 2008 by ThunderMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Funny, I found Briggid better than Jamka and Faval only okay.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 (edited) In stats and her ability to use Ichival probably, but I get more use out of Jamuka. To me, briggid's only useful in chapter 4 because I always do chapter 5 with Levin and Sigurd. Faval's awesome as soon as you get him thanks to Ichival and having the Elite band by then. Having his father as Holyn makes him more decent and capable of hitting those stupid 3 pegasus knight bosses in the endgame.

Ϲharlie Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Ronan and his "higher than most magic-users" magic growth is clearly the greatest bowman of all time. Ok, so he isn't the greatest at anything, but he's still my favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defeatist Elitist Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 STOP TAUNTING ME GUYS! :P Personally, I like Louise, 'cause she's total hotness. Same with Shinon, and Leonardo is pretty cute. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canas is back Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 he's a guy, but he does this alot (this isn't even the worst I've seen him, of course certaion people egg him on on other forums) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tino Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Snipers could be pretty useful in FE1 - FE5, but after that they became pretty useless (except for FE10, perhaps, but I haven't played it yet). They were complete awesomeness in FE2, with 1~5 range (or 1~3 with a normal Bow). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordsalmon Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 The only worthwhile Sniper in the GBA games is Rebecca anyway. Klein and Igrene all have some pretty good use. -_- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 In FE10, they are godly in third tier, since they have a range of 2-3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Tyler Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Dorthy I think is an awesome Bow-woman and Faval and Bridget can kill anyone ass in FE4. Ronan's only good for the Magic Defense. I found Tanya to be much better then him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonri Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I love archers, awesome spport unit. Even better in 9-10 with the crit boost. Rebecca's pretty excellent, especially supported with Dart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
