LowTierFE7Tresh Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Milady is a great unit...but who's the best non-Milady playable flier in FE6? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Refa Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Shanna because she joins super early. She's actually better than Milady in LTC, I'm pretty sure (don't quote me on that, though, I know nothing about FE6). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Mage Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Shanna might be fragile, but she joins super early, so she's reliable. Zeiss is actually pretty good, his problem is that he joins rather late, and you already have Miledy, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterIceTeaPeach Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 If hard mode, Zeiss If not, Thany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punished Dayni Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 (edited) As a unit, Shanna has availability over Tate, but Tate is a better unit overall imo. Especially for hard mode. Still, Zeiss is better than both, but availability is worse again. And his level is particularly low for that point. Juno unfortunately is a terrible unit. (Edit: probably should be clarifying hard mode for Tate and Zeiss. Otherwise, there's pretty much no benefit. And even then, everyone else has made the case for Thany being better overall.)

Jedi Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Shanna, and heck in LTC she outperforms Miledy. Shanna because she joins super early. She's actually better than Milady in LTC, I'm pretty sure (don't quote me on that, though, I know nothing about FE6). Yeah, because stuff like Hennings chapter, she can create much quicker clears among other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irysa Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 (edited) Even non LTC, non rigged, pure combat wise Shanna is better than Tate in FE6, NM or HM. Tate is mad overrated, and Zeiss arguably has more unique/significant contributions for much less effort.

General Horace Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 phew im glad im not the only one that thinks tate is bad But yeah echoing others in saying Thany is numbah one. Zeiss would be way better with a good lance rank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upmostpompano Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Shanna's good because of availibility, Tate has meh bases, and Zeiss is watered down Milady. Shanna outshines them all because she's actually close to promoting or promoted when Tate/Milady join. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical Glace Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Shanna probably, because of how early she comes into play. Tate and Zeiss have nice HM boosts though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brynhilly Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Tate and Zeiss actually can fit Miledys role well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Mir Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 (edited) Tate and Zeiss actually can fit Miledys role wellI doubt it.Anyways, I'm going with the general consensus and saying Shanna - Zeiss comes late and underleveled with crap for a lance rank to boot, Yuno is just bad, and Tate's bases are meh.

Weeping Dalek (MK) Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I would have to say Tate Thany suffers from many Pegasus Knight problems, more than Tate does Namely, low Strength and Con While Tate only suffers from low Con On the topic of Zeiss, he just joins too late and I personally think he, as well as Hugh, should've both been prepromotes And Yuno, while prepromotes suck in FE6 anyway so ya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus and Zealot help early game tons, Klein and Igrene are your best foot Bow users by far with good weapon ranks in a game thats hard to get good ranks in, and solid bases, Percival is one of the best units in the game coming in with solid weapon ranks and stats, Echidna & Bartre while not super amazing are still pretty decent units overall, Dayan is ok filler, Niime is one of the best units in the entire late game. Cecilia has a horse, can use restore and has a decent anima rank to make up for her weaker stats, Yodel and Karel are unnecessary but also decent when they are around.

Fire Emblem Fan Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I would personally say Tate. However, by the time you get her, you may have trained Shanna up to be on-par with her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troykv Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Shanna does the best contribution, Zeiss has the biggest potential and incredible base stats for his low level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Holy Elf Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 In NM it's very, very obviously Thany/Shanna. She crushes Tate in avoid and isn't much worse than her in anything else (somewhat less HP IIRC?), and that's before considering her availability lead. In HM I can see the case for Tate or Zeiss, or Shanna again. I'm not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediJose Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Shanna Support her with Lot and Wade she gains I believe +4 or more damage and higher critical. Tate is pretty awesome in Hard mode, support her with Klein and she will be a bit better. Zeiss is pretty much a Milady clone, Support him, Ellen and Milady together and all three of them will be good for the rest of the game. Yuno, just support her with Jerrot and Treck and she'll be doing criticals all day. All the fliers are good just gotta know how to use them.

With a few exceptions, pitiful bases and pitiful growths, how are they good? Marcus can't kill with Iron crap, even in Chapter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gradivus. Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Marcus can't kill with Iron crap, even in Chapter 1 Marcus is the perfect Jagen for that reason. He leaves the enemies at low HP so your weaker units can pick them off for exp. He's way above average for the first 7 chapters because his durability, speed and attack (>avg strength, silver lance to damage stronger enemies) are noticeably better than those of everyone else besides Zealot (who is Marcus +1 essentially), and he's still pretty good for the western isles due to his high HP and def and average offense. None of the units listed by Jedi have terrible bases, be it due to weapon ranks or stats. What impedes their utility is that their growth unit alternatives more or less just overshadow them, but they're serviceable whenever you want them to help out.

Espinosa Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Thany is pretty bad at combat with average strength on HM. I'd go with Zeiss in spite of him lacking Killer Lance access. Great bases right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gradivus. Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Zeiss can easily get the exp to promote in C16x, allowing him to use killer lances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Thany wins if it's not HM, the others aren't amazing without their bonuses. Tate fares fairly well, she's in a similar ballpark to Thany in HM and the little extra strength she has is pretty hand. Zeiss comes a little late but is generally workable and Yuno is literally trash regardless. In short, Thany generally wins with Tate as a reasonably close second in HM, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Raven Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Marcus is the perfect Jagen for that reason. He leaves the enemies at low HP so your weaker units can pick them off for exp.

Would like to add to this by pointing out that Marcus has Silver Lance access just in case something needs to die really quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus can't kill with Iron crap, even in Chapter 1 Who is killing stuff better than Marcus in early game? Who has weapon ranks comparable to all the units I stated at base in a game where weapon ranks grow really slowly? The Prepromotes in FE6 generally have really solid bases compared to alot of the tier 1 chumps you get lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
