On his defense, though, Intelligent Systems wanted to make absolutely sure you wanted to use no magical class in Fates other than the DLC ones so 8 move is a decent argument. Why the hell does Dark Knight has more strength base and growth than a Paladin in Fates? 3 hours ago, Trymer said: uhm... what about "Lifetaker"? I'll always make sure my units get that skill before going to become a Sorcerer full-time. Ever since I began doing no-grind runs of Awakening I began to realize level 15 skills are just not worth suffering 15 levels of a sub-optimal class. Same goes for Sworfaire in Awakening. In Conquest Leo basically gets it by chapters 25-27, which is pretty much endgame, and you can buy Lifetaker online in that game. 2 hours ago, TheVinceKnight said: I would.

Â Also oh dammm that looks awesome! I wonder if and how they are going to portray the Mage Fighter class, if they try to do that at all. I don't think they will, seeing as for Grandmaster Robin they just switched the weapons between male and female Robin. but it would be cool though ^^ Edited March 7, 2017 by Trymer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reclassing ain't free, buddy. You mean in Heroes or you mean in future games? Since, due to how classes work in FE4, Mage Fighter is essentially an intermediary class of unmounted Mage Knights and inferior Sages we might have to wait until Echoes revisions for FE4 to ever see it again. I hope we do because it'd be lame if they ever remake the games and they standardize classes the current way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we do because it'd be lame if they ever remake the games and they standardize classes the current way. I thought we were talking about the issue of levels, not money? But yes I know reclassing isn't free xD Makes me wonder how much Lifetaker costs to buy as well, it's probably more cost-efficient that way as well as in time and being in the sub-optimal class (which I already agreed on was the easier and better way). keywords to consider in my earlier post are: If you're doing a specific type of run Then you can get it, If you want it. meaning it falls to the person playing in question to consider whether it's worth the 4k gold and effort in that case. In my personal opinion that means yes, in your personal opinion that means no. Agreed? I'd say agreed. Â And I meant in Cipher, seeing as I was referring to Tine's (Tinny's) cards. Like will they name the class "Mage Fighter" like in the original Genealogy of the Holy War or will they do something else? and if so will they represent them with only tomes or will they also present them with swords for some cards? I hope that explains slightly better what I was trying to convey with that earlier message ^^" edit: In googling how to write Mage Fighter in japanese it seems like they did classify the card as "Mage Fighter". so she atleast is portrayed with tomes as the main weapon. So that narrows down my question for speculation to if they will portray any Mage Fighter wielding swords in the future.

So that narrows down my question for speculation to if they will portray any Mage Fighter wielding swords in the future. The issue for me is that reclassing never has enough liberty to do it for the late skills to be a sensible reason to reclass. Lifetaker costs about 1000g, and I think 750 if bought from a castle battle. If it's about personal opinion then whatever is fine, if you want to go into opinions I personally believe Lifetaker isn't even all that good of a skill anyways. Very underwhelming in actual practice on both games it appears. Tailto is a Mage Fighter in her class too, they are consistent with classes in that sense. I don't think any actual Mage Fighter has enough strengths to pull C rank swords. Like I told you Mage Fighter is mostly a "Sage-lite" class because Sages were reserved for special characters in the story (Levin, Sety, Hawk, Julia), much like how Swordmaster was reserved for special characters and Forrest/Heroes were the common characters.

I can't remember if I ran a lot of healers so that was a nice touch for me, which in turn made me value the skill, because it had a practical use for me.

I might need to go and get it to go and play it :D Yeah, but you also had Sol, which proccd very reliable thanks to how inflated stat skill. You got it on Hero, which was a great class on it's own. You also got it early, only 5 levels in and most importantly you healed during the opponent turn, meaning you could literally dump your units versus the enemy and they'll survive. Lifetaker in my eyes never did anything a Mend/Recover/Physic staff couldn't do and didn't do anything Nosferatu didn't do better either. One very valuable thing I must give to Lifetaker is that it allows units to ram headfirst into Counter without fear to the enemy turn, which was useful in my first Conquest run as Leo could kill those Golems with Countermagic on his own, but it was very situational. Do give it a try, it's an experience you cannot miss. Watching a lets play will never even come close to equate the hype of playing a game yourself, specially a captivating grand adventure like FE4 and FE5. The prologue is kinda slow, but in my eyes the hype of FE4 starts in chapter 1 once you get Lex a Brave Axe and begin to realize just how strong Sigurd really is.

Aquantis Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Sigurd my be the most broken lord :).  Also, realize that in genealogy, there are no promotion trees.  each unit has it's own class it promotes to (those that are not prepromotes), so it is not class based like other games.  Oh, and many things in the game are .... unbalanced (holy weapons, and master knights especially).  Love that tinny!  I am still hopefully that we will get an Ishtar SR to be paired with Yurius (though that's looking less likely we will even get Ishtar now).

The only one that ever comes close is maybe Path of Radiance if you decide to avert your eyes from normal Laguz units. Unbalanced games always makes for fun times, which is why the 2nd gen can be so entertaining (a Sety so fast he loops back to his base speed and can STILL cap Speed 100% of the time is amazing). If Ishtar gets the SR then that means Julius doesn't gets one, because we already know of 5 SRs out of 6 (Seliph, Julia, Shanam, Aletenna and Larcei. Well, some doubt Larcei). I wouldn't put it beyond them, either as Isthar is too good of a waifu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing has been official said, but as someone who has worked on graphic design, I think it's a lot more plausible that they accidentally forgot to toggle on the correct border than that a mistake was made with the rarity typing.

Kirie Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) Today's reveal is an SR for Female Robin! The face is a bit weird, but she's still cute. <3 Worth noting that this is the 6th and final Awakening SR, but we're still missing a couple for Genealogy.

Kirie Posted March 9, 2017 Author Share Posted March 9, 2017 So, today's card is Grima, and I guess the card/art can be considered plot spoilers for Awakening, so I'm being more cautious about throwing it around.
