TheWerdna Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Basically what the title says: what capturable units are actually worth getting? Like I know about rallyguy, but are there any other notible generics? And what about the named ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 (edited) Haitaka in chapter 9 has Rally Def, at least on Lunatic (not sure about lower difficulties, never played them) Kumagera is pretty ripped too, I capped him, though I didn't find him as useful as Haitaka, he really does have good stats and Certain Blow (at least on Lunatic) which covers for Oni Chieftain's low skl. Chapter 24 has some pass falcos that might be useful, though recruiting them might take a while. I didn't find any super standout ones in birthright since nobody has cool skills, but I did cap a wyvern lord for a ferry.

MrStardustRicon Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Haitaka in chapter 9 is pretty nice for the rally defense, along with just being a really strong unit, a nice wall to have for chapter 10, and useful beyond that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pretty Cool Guy Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 I got to agree with Haitaka being pretty good. Rally defense is sweet, and he has pretty great offensive growths and bases to be useful beyond that.He can be a pretty decent crit machine with a killer lance.

He gets Strong Riposte on Hard and up. Kumagera has Certain Blow on all difficulties and can have Darting Blow on Hard and up. He can also be able to run both Counter and Countermagic (Hard and up) as well as Death Blow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VallaKnight12 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 I have Nichol and I have captured Tarba from the Museum Melee, and he's currently at level 99. Is he worth using? He's at level 99, and his Skills are Heavy Blade, Aether, Veteran Intuition, Gamble, and Axefaire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's at level 99, and his Skills are Heavy Blade, Aether, Veteran Intuition, Gamble, and Axefaire. Nichol and Tarba can be useful but Nichol has trouble differentiating himself from Camilla and Beruka and Tarba has trouble differentiating himself from Charlotte (as well as other capturable Berserker bosses). They also don't have any skills that they can't normally learn on their own (unlike Haitaka, Kumagera, Daniela, Gazak, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral "Bull" Halsey Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Candace is the only captured boss that can't reclass because she's fat or IntelSys is probably sizeist. <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also don't have any skills that they can't normally learn on their own (unlike Haitaka, Kumagera, Daniela, Gazak, etc.) I see, is Zhara useful? I'm playing the game on Easy Mode. Tarba in my game is level 99, so I don't think I'll ditch him. I could try to capture Gazak at the Museum Melee next time.

Roflolxp54 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Zhara's main gimmick is that he gets Pass (all difficulties) and Countermagic (Hard and higher). He has some very odd stat cap mods for a Hero (ie. having mods that favor a mage rather than an actual Hero). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Laufeyson Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Haitaka has Rally DEF on all difficulties. He gets Strong Riposte on Hard and up. Yep, and hes early and has decent growths across the board. With Guard Naginata, he makes for great tanking, with Strong Riposte aiding on EP. Haitaka so good. Honestly, he might be one of the best capturables because of availability and class (being spear fighter in Nohr). Ugh Haitaka too op lmao.

Dark Sage Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) Haitaka's great, and Kumagera can come in handy (though he has speed problems). Nichol's probably the third best capturable boss, mainly on Birthright where he lacks much competition since he has a good class and has growths only slightly worse than Camilla's. You'd want to recruit him early though since his stats don't scale all that well the further you get in the game (I think the extra stats he gets from level scaling uses class growths and not his own). He also has his own critical portrait and voice clips if you care. Most of the capturable units worth getting are in Lunatic Conquest. Chapter 17 can give you Master Ninjas with the Poison Strike/Grisly Wound combo, so they're good disposable units. Chapter 23 gives you the Rallyman, and Chapter 24 has Falcoknights w/Pass.

Renall Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Gazak is a Berserker with Certain Blow. The applications of this should be immediately obvious (HINT: Great Club / Beruka's Axe). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastor15243 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Haitaka is obscenely useful until you can get Camilla to level 5 wyvern lord and get rally defense on a mainstay member of your army, and even then I've heard his growths are great. Rally Defense is really his biggest asset anyway though because it's so obscenely useful in early conquest, combined with demoiselle and gentilhomme and lily's poise and eventually inspiration if you reclass Jakob or Felicia, to basically modify your defense score at will to ensure that stationary enemies will take the bait without them being strong enough to kill you.

Renall Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Haitaka's only really bad growths are Magic and Luck, for when he shows up and for filling a semi-unique class role (not too many Spear Fighters in Conquest) he's reasonably viable. Lack of supports can be a thing but he's probably doing a lot of rallying and hole-plugging as is. If he manages to keep up in levels he has reasonable durability and pretty good offense. If not you can just rotate him out once Camilla/Beruka has Rally Defense. If you manage to juggle his classes around post-promotion he can end up with Rend Heaven and Lancefaire by the end of things plus multiple Seals (which is less exciting in Conquest since Draconic Hex exists, but is still nice). That's better kit than some real characters can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiggly Mouse Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 (edited) For Conquest like everyone said, Haitaka is very useful with his rally and he can help making it through chapter 10 a lot easier (At least for me because I ended up sacrificing him to survive the last turn). Kumarega is pretty ripped with Magic Counter and Certain Blow from hard difficulty although I never ended up using him apart from MyCastle battles. And not useful on gameplay but I like getting Nichol and Cadance too only because they somehow have crit cut-ins and I like their design.

Experiment 626 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Just out of curiosity, is there a list anywhere that lists off ALL the possible capturable units for each path? Also, besides the Child Recruitment/Museum Melee maps, are there any units worth capturing on the Revelations path? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirmola Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 (edited) Also, besides the Child Recruitment/Museum Melee maps, are there any units worth capturing on the Revelations path? THere are no capturable bosses besides the child ones, if that's what you mean. There are no interesting generics that i remember in normal (the fact that pretty much every enemy in the second half of the game is not capturable does not help).

Avestus Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Falcon knights with "pass" from Hinoka chapter (24) are very useful for conquest endgame. Especially if you didn't reclass Selena. 8 movement with potential 9 and B in staves form the get-go. Nice for 1-turning that nightmare.

Roflolxp54 Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 What are the maxed out stats of Haitaka, Kumagera, and Gazak in Hard Mode? Max stats don't change based on difficulties (they have their own stat cap modifiers). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VallaKnight12 Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Max stats don't change based on difficulties (they have their own stat cap modifiers). I'm asking because my Haitaka's Strength capped at 36, an dI saw an image of it being capped at 35. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
