It's one of my favorites and Shin kicks Bern butt lategame. Archer is easily Kliff's best class option in Echoes, possibly even better than Mage this time around. 8 Mov, 5 range, Killer Bows existing...what's not to love? His Atk is on the low side but that didn't stop him from being one of my best units. or maybe Killer Bow is OP idk man So, basically Klein. @Rezzy DON'T GIVE THEM IDEAS Edited July 15, 2017 by MrSmokestack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcsilas Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 7 minutes ago, Rezzy said: After Tobin and Gray got Swords, I expect Kliff to be a Sword, too to complete the trio. I think I just realised something. They have to use the unit's current character design so maybe they give them a weapon that easily fits the character design. For example, if Faye was a Pegasus Knight/Cavalier it's a bit of a change from her base character design with her kinda puffy-looking dress. (correct me if i'm wrong if a dress like that is suitable for horse riding). So that leaves more basic weapons like swords and bows given to the villagers. still doesn't excuse Tobin not being an archer though since a bow is one of the easiest weapons to add to his design (compared to say, a mage with robes) if Kliff were to be added, his design looks more archer like (hence I made him into an archer) compared to a mage so an archer could be a possibility if they want to break the sword villager combo. i mean i could be wrong but the costume design may be a factor. also random thought- Villager/Trainee Voting Gauntlet? Donnel, Faye, Tobin, Gray vs new additions like Kliff, Atlas and Mozu? Don't know who last one could be since I haven't played other games...

What I mean is that whoever has this equipped treats every battle as if no buffs were applied to both the foe and user. This includes Spurs and if the unit had a Defiant skill, that gets negated too making it a waste of a slot. i always thought that would be Parity, canceling buffs. and Nihil would be more like canceling skills like Desperation, QR, or canceling special skills like Moonbow, Draconic, etc. probably not both because OP. 5 minutes ago, MrSmokestack said: Aaah you gotta finish FE6.

FE6 makes me so nostalgic about FE7 and FE8, which i played when i was like 11. it's already one of my favs too, i just love the GBA games so much..i'm pretty sure i only got him like a chapter ago or so there is time to make him a destroying machine. b-but Mage is so dang good though, i mean, mostly because of the generally low res in the game, which really helps Kliff with his eeeh attack...but yeah Killer Bow is insane. honestly without Killer Bow i don't know what i would do. i betrayed my bow knight love in Echoes and made both Kliff and Tobin mages. they casually sit next to each other with those sick supp bonuses and facetank/destroy everything..only archer on Alm route is Python, at least he got lucky level ups and is amazing.. lol basically yeah, which is indeed very nice 9 minutes ago, mcsilas said: For example, if Faye was a Pegasus Knight/Cavalier it's a bit of a change from her base character design with her kinda puffy-looking dress.

There's a Cavalier of each weapon type in PoR, so they'd be doubling up regardless of which weapon they gave him. Astrid existing is not a reason to not give Geoffrey a Bow anymore than Oscar existing is a reason to not give him a Lance. Except Astrid is the only Tellius cavalier who actually specializes in bows while you have Oscar, Geoffrey and Fiona who all specialize in lances. Besides, Geoffrey is clearly an expy of Finn (both are blue haired lance knights, both known for using a Brave Lance, both very devoted to their lieges, heck even the scenario in which Geoffrey is recruited in PoR is exactly like Finn's in FE4 Gen 2) so making him a bow cavalier would completely ruin that.

The rest? IDK. Ross would be Green infantry- he's easily decided on enough. Ewan's teacher is Saleh- a Sage, so I'd wager he'd be using some form of Anima magic, but I can't say which color. Amelia would from a character perspective make a Blue Horse, but she'd stand out more as a Blue Armor. Mozu- well everyone and their grandmother Niime makes her into an Archer because she's fragile as a Villager, but Blue Infantry works too and would possibly stand out more in the vast sea of heroes.

If we wind up going 2/2, Oscar seems the best lance knight to make a bow knight. There's the whole 'triangle attack' thing he has with Rolf that requires bows, while Geoffrey has the lance and Fiona has 'being Lanvega's daughter' that seems lancier.

To make it work, you'd need the skill on all three participants to make it activate- so that'd be a lot of summoning to get your hands on and it'd cost all three of your characters a slot for one particular type of skill. On top of this, they should restrict it to only activating when all three units are the same distance from the foe- either all must have 2-range weapons with one space between them and the desired enemy, or all 1-range and adjacent to the desired enemy. I don't think we should restrict it to requiring one particular weapon type though- this wasn't the case with any Triangle Attack save the GM bros's. Not sure how much extra damage from the Triangle Attack would be significant but balanced though.

It... doesn't strike me as being useful. At least in the main games, it was easy to make the other two units do something else and just happen to be positioned for the third to TA.

Vaximillian Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 If talking horse archers, please Wolf, Sedgar, Midir, Lester, (Deimne), Selphina, and Roberto first before these steppe whippersnapper hobos. I still maintain that Elincia’s Amiti could be a brave sword without the Spd penalty. She has exactly enough Str to properly wield the thing in RD. Geoffrey (with a brave lance), Lucia (with an overkilling edge maybe), and Bastian (with Rexcalibur because screw you, Soren) should join Elincia on the Crimean Royal Banner. Amelia should be a soldier. Faster than Lukas, cuter than Donnel. Oscar, Gatrie, Shinon, and Rhys for the rest of the Greils banner when? Needs to fit Mia somewhere too, though. Marcia should be added along with her wayward brother, who should be added along with Astrid for reasons. Slap Mia to them. I wonder whether they will bother to write Bastian in iambic pentameter again, like he was speaking in PoB. He dropped the style in RD for some reason and it sucked.
