Raven Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 (edited) I voted Priscilla because she is better [important]IMO[/important]I don't want to debate this,so please don't accuse me of anything kplzthxbai Lol, awesome. I'll defend Priscilla with the fact that I like anima more than light, if I want to use light magic, I'll raise Lucius. If I want anime, I'll raise Priscilla, because Priscilla is better than Erk.

Judge Judy Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Wow that is pretty good Priscilla ;) especially at level 10. Her defense is always bad, but it doesn't matter really since she has good speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Wow that is pretty good Priscilla ;) especially at level 10. Her defense is always bad, but it doesn't matter really since she has good speed. She avoids near enough everything, doubles and kills nearly everything back. She's near enough invincible.

True, by the time she will reach level 15 or something her defense must have gone up. Edited October 19, 2008 by Luxord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking about getting her to solo her way towards Ursula and kill her when the time comes. I'm currently on HNM Ch26, about to promote my first Lord...

Raven Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Ursula is easy to kill, I don't use Priscilla though. I use Canas with Luna. If I can quickly get down to where Ursula is and kill her before I recruit Nino, I can have Nino travel through the main path safely and talk to Jaffar without getting Bolting'd or having to make her travel through the narrow middle path.

Florete Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 Tino, why would you want to go to 19xx? It's killing your ranks in every way. You'll lose out on Lyn's tactics first off, possibly her funds also if you use that many heals. Then just going to 19xx means you're losing tactics for Hector because of zero requirements. Going to that chapter is all forms of bad for S-ranks. In that way, Serra isn't likely to be higher than 5-6 by the time Priscilla joins, 7-8 at max, since you aren't always able to heal every single turn. So let's consider Serra is level 7 when you get Priscilla, a fair level if you raised her well: Serra lv 7 HP: 20 Mag: 5 Skl: 6.8 Spd: 10.4 Luck: 9.6 Def: 2.9 Res: 8.3 Priscilla lv 3 HP: 16 Mag: 6 Skl: 6 Spd: 8 Luck: 7 Def: 3 Res: 6 Priscilla already has better magic and so is healing more, which matters more than anything at this point. She's even winning in Defense and not far behind in others, considering she's 4 levels lower. But defense and stuff like that shouldn't matter too much for units whose soul purpose is to heal, not fight. Serra's supports aren't bad, but they take forever. The only ones that may be worth building in time are Sain and Lucius, and they take over 100 turns. Priscilla, on the other hand, has two supports faster than that and with Raven, a great character, and Erk, a pretty good character. The difference in supports is that Priscilla actually has a chance to build hers up, whereas Serra isn't likely to make it to any A-ranks, and may not even make it to be. Her fastest B supports are slower than Priscilla's fastest A-supports. So Priscilla wins in the supports department as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to that chapter is all forms of bad for S-ranks. 19xx might not be so good for your Tactics ranking, but chapters like 23x more than make up for it, and Tactics isn't the hardest rank anyway. Experience is quite likely the hardest one, and a 0 requirement chapters aids that rank a ****ton. That gives us this: Level 12 Serra 23 HP, 8 Mag, 8 Skl, 12 Spd, 4 Def, 11 Res, 13 Luc Level 3 Priscilla 16 HP, 6 Mag, 6 Skl, 8 Spd, 3 Def, 6 Res, 7 Luc It's probably needless to say who wins this. Serra's supports aren't bad, but they take forever. The only ones that may be worth building in time are Sain and Lucius, and they take over 100 turns.

If her Lucius and Sain supports take only 121 turns to get to A, then she will definitely reach them <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 19xx might not be so good for your Tactics ranking, but chapters like 23x more than make up for it, and Tactics isn't the hardest rank anyway. Experience is quite likely the hardest one, and a 0 requirement chapters aids that rank a ****ton. There are four other mandatory zero requirement chapters that can help experience and hurt tactics. Hector's tactics is possibly the hardest rank to get 5 stars in as a result, so hurting it more is a bad idea. Lyn's ranks are being killed regardless. And if Experience is what Hector needs, having Nils/Ninian at a lower level is definitely better, as you can get 1500-2000 experience through them if Nils was kept at a lower level in Lyn's mode. Going to 19xx is way more bad than good. If her Lucius and Sain supports take only 121 turns to get to A, then she will definitely reach them Maybe with Lucius, not likely with Sain, a mounted unit. Even so, she won't be building them very high too soon, and by the time they're built, they won't be as useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reikken Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 (edited) Serra isn't likely to be higher than 5-6 by the time Priscilla joins, 7-8 at max, since you aren't always able to heal every single turn. So let's consider Serra is level 7 when you get Priscilla, a fair level if you raised her well: You can get Serra to lv 11+ in Lyn mode while still getting S in tactics. It's not the easiest thing to do, though. She can at least get to 8-9 if you don't want to put in that much effort. That would put her at 10-11 (or 13...) by the time Priscilla joins. Enemy density is so low in Lyn mode that refreshing an attacker with Nils doesn't help you the vast majority of the time. You just end up with several your attackers sitting there with nothing to attack. Therefore, Nils should go to Serra most of the time. That way you get more exp for Serra at no cost to anyone else.

I don't think Serra can be that high. Lyn's mode is easy enough that characters won't be damaged that often, meaning Serra won't always be healing. Yes, Nils should be used for Serra more often in Lyn's mode, but like I just said, she won't always have someone to heal, so it may not even matter.

Kiba Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Definitely Serra.Please give me some reasons why Priscilla would be better. wtf man, priscilla is so much better when it comes to killing things later on, but for me I just plainly like serra because I just like her personally more than priscilla, I don't care who is stronger and weaker I like who I like because of who they are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyn's mode is easy enough that characters won't be damaged that often, meaning Serra won't always be healing. If no one's taking damage, you can always just make yourself take damage. Attack melee with your mages, go against the weapon triangle, don't use defensive terrain, etc. Edited October 19, 2008 by Reikken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just gave Serra's Heal staff to Priscilla, and everything was near enough the same, only I had a healer with 7 movement as opposed to 5. Plus, I don't regret doing that on this playthrough especially, looking at my current Priscilla's stats. Easily my best unit, with Florina not too far behind.
