KnightOfNohr Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 Guess who's starting school in a week! Me, that's who. Just a quick status update letting y'all know that posting pace will slow down pretty soon...don't worry, I'll make sure the next chapters up by Sunday.

KnightOfNohr Posted August 25, 2019 Author Share Posted August 25, 2019 On 8/19/2019 at 3:50 PM, Saint Rubenio said: You're... not going to recruit Minerva? Have you seen the state of your army, man? Minerva's a godsend for you right now! You use rescue for everything already, why not this? : Look, I already had to use one use up on Etzel, and with movement issues, I may not even have been able to outrun the heroes. Is Minerva really worth the risk? : Yes. : Yes. : Yes. : Deinonychus Quote Ah, Etzel. I love this man. He's a great character, he's got a great design, and he's a great unit in this game. Best Mage in the game, bar none, sporting great bases, great ranks (Excalibur at base!), decent bulk for a Mage... he's just all sorts of awesome. Pictured, why Etzel is awesome. A lesser Mage would've died. He is pretty great. A team mainstay for sure. Quote He's also the namesake of a playable Bishop from FE6. Which I feel is more relevant, this being a FE forum and all. Well, I prefer to call him Yoda, so... Battle, Part 1 Spoiler Hey, it's the analysis thing! Let's see how it goes... Ahh yeah I presume it's the Resistance one that's your favorite, Ruben. Fire Emblem: Three Houses (2019) Also, another conversation between these two. Fun fact: I actually hate strawberries. They're just so sour to my mouth. It makes me cringe to eat them. Oh, and they often have squishy bits, which make me very uncomfortable. I do love bananas and pears, though. I'm not a fan of oranges, and I despise artificial orange. It makes me feel sick. I am fond of orange juice, however. As long as there's no pulp. I honestly prefer vegetables to fruit, however. I love a nice, fresh cucumber, bell pepper, or celery stick. I've also always liked broccoli, and was always weirded out by TV characters and the like rejecting it. "Why are you going 'ick, broccoli?' IT'S DELICIOUS!" ~Young KnightOfNohr On the other hand, I really don't like vegetables on pizza. They don't taste nice and fresh like they do uncooked, and they don't taste savory like every other part of the pizza. It just doesn't mesh well. Did you know that my brother hates pizza? He says it's because of the tomato sauce, but he also refuses to try sauce-less pizza... But I think I've talked enough about food for the time being. Judging by his expression: yes. Anyway: Marth gets the Boots by popular demand. Today's team. It's Thoron! I mean, it's Elrean! But he still didn't get Excalibur. : This is outrageous. It's unfair. How you be an apprentice, and not have Excalibur? So...I do this. I'll not mince words here: Merric dies. This was my fault. I didn't want to use the Rescue staff, because I thought there was a "way" I was supposed to do it. I looked it up, and apparently, most people just used the Rescue staff. Or, you know, Flyers...but I'm a bit short in that department. In conclusion...he dies. I'm sorry for being incompetent. Seriously, I didn't even Pure Water! WHY? Palla, being my only flyer--aaaaaand now I realize I probably should have kept Sirius as a Dracoknight. Sigh. Swarmguy #1 dies. Sirius moves over and kills this Cleric before she starts becoming annoying. What Silver Card Wendell starts robbing his own school. ...presumably. I didn't end up using this, but I probably would have if I realized that this Silences all the enemies. ALL THE ENEMIES. : This update is just hindsight after hindsight, isn't it? Luke borrows Thief, and... This contextualized screenshot is a joke in of itself. Not magic. Buzz buzz. : If you're not with me...then you're my enemy. : Only a Dark Mage deals in absolutes. : Then you're a Dark Mage. : Oh dear. You're right. Sirius kills a Mage. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA---phew, he didn't crit. 13% odds, if you can read past the flash-bang. If you had only gotten Strength last level... Top 10 Photos Taken Seconds Before Disaster. The irony here is that with an actually competent player, Merric dying means that Elice has to get eaten by a dragon. Of course, on this playthrough, she's going to no matter what, so... Anyway, Swarmguy #2 dies. OK, that's pretty good. Frey kills the western Cleric. Or, at least, he tries to. Ow. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA--oh. Once again, he failed to crit. Now, James weakens this Mage. He's not a huge threat, but he can kill Frey at his HP level. So, what do I do in this situation? I RISK HIS LIFE ON A 71% CHANCE AND HE FAILS And now, you understand why it took me so long to upload this. : SO : Homework for today: list one way I could have handled this situation to avoid any deaths. : For extra credit: KnightOfNohr was on a mixture of sleep deprivation and which narcotic while playing this chapter? : See you tomorrow. Reset Counter: 2 (Marth) DEATH COUNTER: Wrys Samto Caesar Radd Catria Caeda Cecille Feena Arran Bantu* Minerva* Barst Merric Frey : Hey, I'm one death away from officially doing worse than Ruben.

Saint Rubenio Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: Well, I prefer to call him Yoda, so... But... There's already a Yoda in Tear Ring Saga! I know that's technically not FE, but Kaga made it and got sued because it was basically PS1 FE, so... bottom-line, call him Yoder, will ya? 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: I presume it's the Resistance one that's your favorite, Ruben. Ahahah, you've guessed correctly. I can only hope we get to see it. Thankfully, even Mages have mediocre res in this game, and I'm fairly sure the threshold to get anything but the worst result is quite high, so... Besides, even if we just get the middling scene, the funniest thing about it is not the scene itself, but what comes after it. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: Interrupting the food rant to rant about this: in Shadow Dragon, after her father's death, Linde had to pretend to be a boy to slip away, and was unlucky enough to be captured by slave traders and kept in the Knorda slave market until Marth arrived to liberate Archanea. He tried to send her away, but an embittered and enraged Linde insisted on joining the army so she could kill Gharnef with her own two hands. She had a horrible life and it did a number on her, but in this game she's apparently just sheltered animuh gurl. They did her dirty in this game, I must say. Even the portrait's worse. The pose is so generic, compared to that over-the-shoulder glare she rolls in Shadow Dragon. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: It's Thoron! I mean, it's Elrean! Take that back right now! Elrean is amazing! 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: : This is outrageous. It's unfair. How you be an apprentice, and not have Excalibur? You-- ...okay, he actually is a lot like Annie, but... he's still great! 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: So...I do this. I'll not mince words here: Merric dies. This was my fault. I didn't want to use the Rescue staff, because I thought there was a "way" I was supposed to do it. I looked it up, and apparently, most people just used the Rescue staff. Or, you know, Flyers...but I'm a bit short in that department. In conclusion...he dies. I'm sorry for being incompetent. Seriously, I didn't even Pure Water! WHY? Frankly, I have no idea how he's supposed to live without getting rescued, or rushing to Elrean with Dracoknight!Wendell. Elrean moves, and even if he didn't, moving anywhere beyond his range from the throne lands Merric right within reach of the Sniper. He hasn't the slightest chance of survival. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: Sirius moves over and kills this Cleric before she starts becoming annoying. What Silver Card Jikes... that's bad, but admittedly, they could've hinted at it. No way blind players are going to know they aren't supposed to murder healers, like always. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: Wendell starts robbing his own school. ...presumably. I didn't end up using this, but I probably would have if I realized that this Silences all the enemies. ALL THE ENEMIES. Well, don't lose sleep over it. A single turn of not getting electrocuted by Elrean would not have saved Merric. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: Luke borrows Thief, and... This contextualized screenshot is a joke in of itself. More so because this staff cannot open chests. So you've used a staff that can open locks, but only chest locks, in order to get a staff that can open locks, but only door locks. Is this "powercreep"? 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: : If you're not with me...then you're my enemy. : Only a Dark Mage deals in absolutes. : Then you're a Dark Mage. : Oh dear. You're right. This is even funnier when you consider that Etzel is on the other side of the map. If you're not with me... then you're my enemy! Only a Dark Mage deals in absolutes! WHAT!? I SAID, ONLY A DARK MAGE DEALS IN ABSOLUTES! A BANK PAGE HEALS IN HAND SALUTES!? WHAT?! OOOONLY A DAAAAAARK MAAAAAAAAAGE DEEEEEALS IN ABSOLUTEEEEEEEEES!! ...this is going nowhere. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA---phew, he didn't crit. 13% odds, if you can read past the flash-bang. I hate these bastards. They're the reason I only dare kill the swarm Bishops when Feena's around to bail the killer out of there. And yet here you are, risking Palla's life on a 13%. When will you learn? 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: Now, James weakens this Mage. He's not a huge threat, but he can kill Frey at his HP level. So, what do I do in this situation? I RISK HIS LIFE ON A 71% CHANCE ... He survived chapter 6 for this. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: Jesus Christ, that was rotten luck. On top of the tactical blunders, you were just unlucky. On the bright side, it's looking like both of my favourite Jacket Bros are getting used! They're... your last hope for a Cavalier, at this point. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: DEATH COUNTER: Wrys Samto Caesar Radd Catria Caeda Cecille Feena Arran Bantu* Minerva* Barst Merric Frey : Hey, I'm one death away from officially doing worse than Ruben. How I wish I could say this pleases me. On the bright side, you're still a long way from beating my FE6 score. Man, that was one hell of a shitshow.

Eltosian Kadath Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 1 hour ago, KnightOfNohr said: Well, I prefer to call him Yoda, so... Does one of the translations actually call him that? I thought it was either Yodel or Yoder, If so point me towards that patch because it sounds ridiculous. 1 hour ago, KnightOfNohr said: Sorry to interrupt your food rant with a food rant, but it really bugs me that they didn't mention the most obvious difference between wild and domestic strawberries, the size. Wild strawberries are really tiny compared to their domestic variety. As for them being "misshapen", wild strawberries tend to be more rounded and berry shaped, unlike that more distinctive wedge like shape of a lot of the domestic variety get, and the difference in color is more about how long you wait until you pick them. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: On the other hand, I really don't like vegetables on pizza. They don't taste nice and fresh like they do uncooked, and they don't taste savory like every other part of the pizza. It just doesn't mesh well. Vegetables on pizza are there to counter balance, and compliment the savory elements. If you stack savory on top of savory you overwhelm the palate and undermine the experience, but the right kinda vegetables can balance those flavors out. 3 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: Judging by his expression: yes. James knows exactly how that date is going to end. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: So...I do this. I'll not mince words here: Merric dies. This was my fault. I didn't want to use the Rescue staff, because I thought there was a "way" I was supposed to do it. I looked it up, and apparently, most people just used the Rescue staff. Or, you know, Flyers...but I'm a bit short in that department. In conclusion...he dies. I'm sorry for being incompetent. Seriously, I didn't even Pure Water! WHY? Yeah that's a trap every first time player falls into, as it really seems like there should be a way to deal with that other than the rescue staff. I really hope that Excalibur tome ends up in the convoy for next chapter, as it helps a lot against the far worse desert chapter that is chapter 11... 8 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: Sirius moves over and kills this Cleric before she starts becoming annoying. What Silver Card Plus if you kill too many of them you will need to LTC for the gaiden. Then again 10x has a high chance for an unlucky death for very little benefit. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA---phew, he didn't crit. 13% odds, if you can read past the flash-bang. I hate how they positioned those two shaver mages, that effective damage let's them threaten the flier that can deal with the swarmers the easiest, so you usually want to either dance, or use one of promoted infantry classes that can enter the water with a ranged weapon. 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: I RISK HIS LIFE ON A 71% CHANCE AND HE FAILS And now, you understand why it took me so long to upload this. Ouch...that went poorly, too bad you couldn't have physiced him before his attack, although if no one else could reach I guess that wouldn't have saved him in the end... 2 hours ago, KnightOfNohr said: : Hey, I'm one death away from officially doing worse than Ruben. KnightOfNohr, Ruben went into his New Mystery iron man run having completed it multiple times, and on harder difficulties, you've made it clear this was your first time emulating this game. That previous experience Ruben had to draw upon (most of which can't be learned by simply watching someone else play) gave him an extra edge you don't have, so don't feel bad or be discouraged that your units are dying earlier than his, or if you miss secret items or ending.

It's all right. If you can't tell, I tend to exaggerate my frustration when it comes to these LPs. : Also, I use normal text to talk...well, normally, and use the James portrait to express exaggerated viewpoints, jokes, and interact with other characters. Battle, Part 2: Spoiler Palla finally...doesn't kill the Mercenary, because she's one Strength too weak. The mage that killed Frey attacks Linde. She does fine. Also, notice I don't call him "Frey's Killer." That honor goes to me. She finishes him off on her turn. James also kills a helpless Cleric, so she can't heal her pathetic friends. Luke uses up the Thief staff and grabs a Large Bullion. Those familiar with FE12 will be darkly chuckling right now. Not magic...but, seriously. Those stats. I'm really getting tempted to move him over to a combat class. : But...Wrys' legacy! : Remember those "Bald Swordmaster" memes? : Oh...that could work. Matthis kills a Cleric with the most appropriate weapon statwise, but the least appropriate namewise. Oh. I didn't notice he had a Killing Edge. Well, he can't one-shot even with a crit, and he should be fast enough-- Wait, this is Matthis. NONOONONONONONNONO PHEW. Disaster, narrowly averted. Profited from, to boot. Palla kills this Mage... ...and Gordin gets an unnecessary critical on the man who nearly killed Matthis. Hey, is that-- : 5 POINTS! : ...you know, if the Fire Emblem OVA had gotten just one more episode... : ...we would have gotten to see anime Matthis. Speaking of which, the man himself finally breaks out the discount Spear of Suicide. It's been, what, 7 chapters? Ryan gets the kill. ...oh no. I didn't notice this guy. This guy that can kill Ryan at his current HP level. : OPERATION: PANIC! : AHHHHHHHHH!!!! : AHHHHHH! : AHHHHHHHHHHHH--wait, what about Rescue? : Oh, for Naga's sake... : He's dead. You can stop now. : Oh...thanks, Palla. Sirius get picked for baiting duty. Pow. Of course, he gets healed. James weakens him... ...Matthis picks him off... ...and Ryan kills the Cleric. Baiting once again falls to worse Arran. That's right. Get hurt, you second-rate Arran ripoff. So what if you have high weapon ranks and actual growths? Ryan whittles him down... ...for his brother to snatch the kill. Luke gets an incredible level. I hardly care that it's not magic. Wendell prepares to talk. Huh...he does attack. Imagine if he had crit... : I have become more powerful than any Mage can imagine! : Don't you lecture me, Wendell! I have brought peace, freedom, peace, security, justice, peace, and free sand to Khadein! : You were the chosen one! You were supposed to fight Gharnef, not become him! : Envy leads to anger. Anger leads to wrath. Wrath leads to suffering. And suffering...leads to the dark side. Yeah, the apology's a bit late for Merric. Anyway, all that's left is to clean up and grab the last chest. ...meh. The green haired trio will be getting the exp here, since Gordin and Palla are close to leveling. : Gordin? : Yes? : Look at my Strength stat. : ... : AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHH! AAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!! : Please calm down. : I'M LOSING OUT ON MY TITLE TO A PEGASUS KNIGHT. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO STAY CALM?!?! Not bad, but more Speed would be nice-- : HA! See that, Palla? We. Are. Tied. And, soon, I'll overtake you! : And yet, I'll still out-damage you thanks to my Speed. : ... Marth opens the final chest, and... ... why Fun fact: Ryan can one-round Mercs with the Quick Sword. Marth seizes, and we finally complete this map. Gototh shows up and blathers about coprolite we don't care about because we missed the Starspheres. Oh no I can't say I don't deserve it. I'm pretty sure Medeus ends up destroying the world, so...yeah. Worry. Oh, boy! It's the Viking Pirate and the Eyepatch Myrmidon! You know, when you think about it, they're both pirates, one way or another. James looks very suspicious. Oh, I see. These are the Beowulfs of the game, aka. the characters you have to pay real money to play as. By real money, I mean actual gold, rather than just the "royal treasury" every Lord seems to have in their back pocket. It tends to be a lot, but we just got a Large Bullion, so-- ...I think that's cheaper than the sum of the weapons they're carrying. Heck, it's probably cheaper than any one of their weapons. See, James gets it. The rumors that he's willing to hire mercenaries selling their services at a loss? I think this could have been handled more realistically if the actual gold was a down payment/initial fee of sorts, and the rest would be payed post game in back-pocket-royal-treasury money. First, nice hat, and the mustache is on point. Second...oh, no. It's the desert level. On a scale of Yes to What Happened To Frey, how would you rate the decision to make Malice a Peg Knight for the Desert Level? : Oh, but first, we have to deal with... : ..."The Mask Laughs..." : What is that music? : Is that...electric piano? : Who am I? : Am I--not unique? : Maybe I'm not here at all : Are you...singing? : Yup. He's singing. : WAKE UP--GET UP--GET OUT THERE! : RAISE YOUR VOICE AGAINST LIARS! : FEED YOUR ANGER LIKE FIRE! : Please stop. : WHY DOES NOBODY WANT CHANGE?

Well, technically, I was thinking of making Malice a Cavalier...and when she hits 20, I'll switch her over to Pegasus Knight and give her the Elysian Whip. : Oh, yes...the one Caeda deserved far more...my poor, beautiful Caeda... First, that's a good idea, but you can't ever have too many Cavaliers. Not to mention, Malice's ranks suit her best to become a Falcoknight upon promoting (she can main swords, and Falcoknight gives an instant D lance rank for javelins), whereas you'll find a couple of really solid lance Paladins or Dracoknights in Belf and Leiden. What I'm trying to tell you is, please use the jacket bois. They're great. Second, no. Caeda does not want an Elysian Whip. Caeda's main weaknesses, in this game and the last both, are her strength and her pitiful bulk. Dracoknight fixes both. Falcoknight gives her useless swords. 44 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: From my extensive experience of having people die in this game, their items are returned to the convoy. Sadly, I'm not sure I have anyone with B tomes. : Ahem. : Oh...nice. Pictured: the reason Merric is an embarrassment in this game. At least in Shadow Dragon, he had a few turns before Wendell joined. Here? It's Etzel that has a few turns before Merric joins! And Wendell has full chapters on him! He's good to Jeigan in the prologue and that's it. 15 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: It's all right. If you can't tell, I tend to exaggerate my frustration when it comes to these LPs. In all fairness, it says more about me than you that a complete newbie can come in blind and make it all the way to Gotoh's Bullshit Test with less deaths under his belt than a guy with multiple playthroughs of experience behind him. 18 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: Luke uses up the Thief staff and grabs a Large Bullion. Those familiar with FE12 will be darkly chuckling right now. Ah, yeah... not exactly sure what you're refering to, specifically, but there are so many dick-moves awaiting you to choose from... there's a reason Gotoh is one of my most hated characters in FE. It's the next few chapters. 19 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: Not magic...but, seriously. Those stats. I'm really getting tempted to move him over to a combat class. : But...Wrys' legacy! : Remember those "Bald Swordmaster" memes? : Oh...that could work. Yeah, now that Etzel is here, Luke just looks lame in comparison. Although, to be fair, that does include a huge chunk of your cast, up to and including you. 20 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: A 20 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: Profited from, to boot. Ahahahahahahahah! I knew it! He could not fail! Keep going, you magnificent man! 20 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: Hey, is that-- : 5 POINTS! : ...you know, if the Fire Emblem OVA had gotten just one more episode... : ...we would have gotten to see anime Matthis. Actually, I'm not sure we would've. Not so soon, at least. The OVA was based on Mystery of the Emblem (hence, no Wrys), and Matthis (along with all of chapter 4) was gutted from book 1. He was then introduced back in book 2, at least, so he was luckier than Wrys, Darros, Beck, Roger and Jake. 26 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: ...oh no. I didn't notice this guy. This guy that can kill Ryan at his current HP level. : OPERATION: PANIC! : AHHHHHHHHH!!!! : AHHHHHH! : AHHHHHHHHHHHH--wait, what about Rescue? : Oh, for Naga's sake... Oh, good lord... 26 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: : He's dead. You can stop now. : Oh...thanks, Palla. Oh, okay. That's convenient. 26 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: Luke gets an incredible level. I hardly care that it's not magic. He really, really, really wants to kill people, doesn't he? 27 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: Huh...he does attack. Imagine if he had crit... Either of them critting would've been a riot of laughs, no doubt. Funnily enough, he has a quote against Wendell where he says he will spare noone who sides with Merric, not even his master. Then Wendell gives him a verbal beatdown and he doubles back on that spectacularly. 28 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: Yeah, the apology's a bit late for Merric. This works better if Merric lives, yeah. In fact, if they're all alive alongside Etzel, they get a really wholesome scene at the end of the game where Elrean heartfeltly apologizes to Merric. The man actually develops, which is all sorts of awesome. He's not Arran, but Elrean is still probably my favourite book 2 exclusive character. 30 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: Not bad, but more Speed would be nice-- : HA! See that, Palla? We. Are. Tied. And, soon, I'll overtake you! : And yet, I'll still out-damage you thanks to my Speed. : ... Bah. You still have, uh... ...damn, he hasn't a single stat that's higher than Palla's. 31 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: ... why Hwahahahahahah! Oh, FE12. You're great. Well, too late for Merric, but I suppose this'd be a good time to reclass Etzel to Bishop. Either that or use Wendell just a bit longer. 32 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: Oh, boy! It's the Viking Pirate and the Eyepatch Myrmidon! You know, when you think about it, they're both pirates, one way or another. Pirates or no, they have designs so godly that it's criminal that only Malice got artwork. And it already says a lot about Malice, that she's the only one of the old characters brought back for FE12 that got artwork. Everyone else? Doesn't matter if they came from BSFE or FE3!book 2, none of them got shit. The only other FE12 characters that got artwork were Kris and Katarina, and they're actually FE12 original characters, so it's only natural. While on the subject, am I the only one who was disappointed that Three Houses has no official character artwork? Every single FE game except for FE11 and 12 had artwork for all of their characters. There were almost no characters without artwork. Even most of Archanea's guys had something from FE3, with only a few characters from BSFE left without. Then there's Three Houses, where there's the protagonists and that's literally it. You can count the characters who got in Heroes, if you want, but that's still such a tiny portion of the game's cast... and it's such a small cast, too! Even with the different post-timeskip designs for students, that still isn't as much as, say, FE6, and FE6 made artwork for everyone and then some major enemies and NPCs to boot! It wouldn't have been so hard! 35 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: James looks very suspicious. Either that or he likes what he sees. I know I do. Look, now it's me doing the lewd jokes!

I think this could have been handled more realistically if the actual gold was a down payment/initial fee of sorts, and the rest would be payed post game in back-pocket-royal-treasury money. The point here is that these two are lousy mercenaries. I mean, they're both broke because Dice can't stop gambling it all away. 37 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: On a scale of Yes to What Happened To Frey, how would you rate the decision to make Malice a Peg Knight for the Desert Level? No. Keep her a Myrmidon. She loses stats and swords as a peggie, and will get killed by a Hunter when if you forget they exist. Movement isn't as important in Anri's Way as you'd think, for the most part you'll want your units to stick together to weather the storm of lightning-fast fliers. You'll require people who don't get doubled by Wyverns, and she'll fit the bill as a Myrm. Not so sure as a peggie. 38 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: : ..."The Mask Laughs..." Oh, hey! You actually made it there! Congratulat-- Oh, you're going to die so hard in this chapter... you don't even have any promoted units...! Well, on the bright side, there's the slightest chance that Horace will survive the chapter and you'll get to use him. He's one of the game's most boring characters... and one of Shadow Dragon's highlights. I know gaidens in SD are problematic, but the writing for Horace's whole chapter is, simply put, godly. Quote Horace: “I…I do not know what to say.” Nyna: “I have claimed your life, Horace. You have no say. You shall fight for us…and you shall not die. I forbid it.” Just... oh, they did him so little justice in this game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I burn through FEs so fast, I'd splatter at the speed of light against the currently Chapter 12 wall of Hiragana/Kanji/Katakana if I tried play it now. I must have everything translated, minus tiny hiccups. The hex movement, the near lack of doubling and restricted counterattacking, the modified turn system, the shields. A lot of Berwick Saga's radical differences seem intriguing from afar, and I want to experience them myself. And while I won't walk back the Berwick artwork looking plain, I will say there are some characters from it who are visually very appealing to me.: Spoiler Confident, strong, mature. Perhaps a little cocky if the old brief description of her on SF was right? I like Sylvis. At what Parisian cafe can I find this lady? She is beautiful without needing to show any skin. She's an animal lover right? That is always a good thing. The nitpick with this is that is looks too modern an attire for faux-medieval. And she is supposed to a thief from the plains right? This pose doesn't express that very much. But again, I love it, and hope I do like Czene when I finally get my chance to know her. Not to leave the men unmentioned, I do think Kramer looks good. Why? Because he says "Ogma Jr." to me. 21 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Still, it's only three out of how many? 79 playable characters. Villains would add Eremiyah, Hardin, Gharnef, Legion, Clarisse, and maybe Lang to those who need artwork. So 85 people, and you might want to throw NPCs Gotoh and Jagen some art too. New Mystery has the largest playable roster in all of FE. Radiant Dawn comes in second place at 72. Smallest playable roster depends on criteria. NES Gaiden has the absolute smallest at 32. That number is even smaller in practice, because it is divided into two 16 member groups, and Celica can only have 15 b/c Deen vs. Sonya. Genealogy is 48 divided into two 24s (with Finn carrying over but a Iuchar/Iucharba divide), excluding the 14 Gen 2 subs too. I think 3H has tiny numbers sans stealing from other houses too. Without a major team split, Sacred Stones is the smallest sans Creature Campaign at 33. 3H I heard is 34 counting only one sex of Byleth. Berwick Saga is 35.

Not to mention, there's like, two major characters outside of the playable cast that didn't get artwork? It'd have been so easy to give everyone art. I simply cannot understand how the likes of FE6, FE5, etc. could afford to do it, but this one couldn't. Here's hoping they release some at a later date.

Saint Rubenio Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 So here's the trick to know which of the Roros is the real deal. I hope I can explain it properly. Pressing L when holding the cursor over a unit scrolls to the next member of their army. Place the cursor over any enemy, and go through the entire enemy team: eventually, the cursor will snap back to one of the Roros in the upper row. The first Roro that is highlighted will be the real Roro. I recommend using this to save time, but if you feel it's too cheaty, keep reading, I'll offer an alternative strategy below. Promote Palla (holding off on promotions like you're doing is not a great idea anyway, level 17 is more than enough and you probably could've used that promotion last chapter when she kept on failing to one-round things), place her in the foremost starting position and send her ASAP to deal with the real Roro. Left or right would be ideal, but with flying movement, it shouldn't matter that much. Put her in the entrance to the middle chamber with a silver lance and cover the entrance with a unit, that way Palla and the other unit both will only take one attack this turn. Palla should be able to one-round the Roro in the chamber, freeing the way. She'll then be able to make it to the real deal in turn 2, and should be able to one-round him with the silver lance. If she can't, don't despair: the real Roro attacks before any of his clones, so she'll just have to survive, and I very much doubt Roro will be able to tank 4 hits from her silver lance. If you feel she needs more power, forge her something, but I really don't think she will. Now, how will the army survive those 2 turns? Well, you could just send them all outside and Horace further inside his starting room, but if you don't want to use the trick I explained above, this has a significant chance to fail horribly. What I usually do is put all of my units in a row, so they each only take one attack per turn. The hammer Roros are not that strong against anything not named Horace, and most importantly, they're inaccurate, so just don't kill any Roros in turn one to avoid spawning devil axe clones and you'll be fine. All in all, this is how the first turn should be looking like (just flip it if the right Roro is the objective): With this strategy, you should get some experience with minimal risk, and get to keep Horace, a prepromote that you desperatedly need right now. Not to mention, if Palla kills a fake Roro, you can still buy time by unequipping all your weapons, leaving the hammer Roros alive to chip away at your wall of units. Oh, and don't be afraid to reset if Palla dies to a crit or something. I wouldn't blame you, I don't think you can beat this without her. 50 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: : If everything goes terribly wrong, we can always pick up with my side file.

Eltosian Kadath Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I don't use the true Roro tracking technique, but Ruben has covered the gist of it, send your biggest baddest promoted unit (probably promoted Palla) to charge at the back 3 Roro, arrange your units so you only have to take one Roro hit, if you don't find him early you might have to start pulling units into Horace's room and chokepointing the door with your beefiest unit (and hopefully you had a healer that could survive the turn 1 Roro hit to keep them going and/or physic the boss slayer, or have a few vulnerary ready).

The rest all move up with caution. #UNECESSARYCRITICAL OK, now it's time to attack. Moving wyverns. Of course. Good thing we've got Palla. Speaking of Palla, she finds this.

It's OK. That Speed cap is...ridiculously low, though. The Hunter goes down like a sack of wet bricks. Excellent! Linde will take this as well. More teacher/student tag team!

You know the one. Yep, they're back. Now with five members. : Memebers. : This is why you're not in it. Linde takes on the problematic Killer Bow.... ...oh. One point, Linde. One point. Etzel is safe even from a crit, but he can kill Elrean or Linde if he gets lucky. Look, I'm sorry to say this, buddy, but...Linde's worth more than you.

It's desert level time...you know what that means! It might be the horrible flashbacks to the first time I played this map speaking, but this is the perfect music for the first part of dragon Herrerasaurus. The other two (or three I guess) are difficult as well, but the impossibly high move of the wyverns, combined with move restrictions in the desert always made this one feel much worse. 21 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: : I don't like sand.

Also she isn't useless, get her a few levels and she does alright, plus you get her a mage dragon stone, and that immunity to magic damage is a great way to lure Gharnef and his particularly murderous retinue in this game. 57 minutes ago, KnightOfNohr said: Reset Counter: 5 (Marth--2.

It'd give him better staffing abilities while he's the only real healer, more reliability with the magical nukes, and compensate for his high base level, which Linde doesn't suffer from. But again, hormones. Which only comes to prove that you have not seen his official artwork. Guy somehow has a better figure than half the females in Archanea - and that does include Linde.

Dayni Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 So, I missed you starting this. I apologise. Anyways, time to respond to the whole LP. I'm explaining myself in the response to Rubenio's, I bet most everyone will see it there. 😛 On 7/29/2019 at 5:50 PM, KnightOfNohr said: What do you mean, "the task was unworthy?!" It means Cancer here didn't want to do it himself because he was lazy. On 7/30/2019 at 2:16 PM, KnightOfNohr said: Eine and Kleine! Reese and Clarisse are an option. On 7/30/2019 at 2:16 PM, KnightOfNohr said: : Actually, her name is Clarisse. : But...the new hit comedy sitcom! : If you call her Kleine, you have to call me Rody. I don't see any downsides. On 7/30/2019 at 2:16 PM, KnightOfNohr said: Unfortunately, it seems to have been too little, too late to save our Curate friend... Yeah, it's actually tough in Hard to do it. I barely got to him with the party I used. On 7/30/2019 at 2:16 PM, KnightOfNohr said: : ...Maybe, slightly? : If you dye your hair blue, I'll consider it. : Luuu-uuke! I found a razor! It's a trap.

We even think alike. I could see these two finishing each other's sandwiches. On 8/2/2019 at 7:33 PM, KnightOfNohr said: Language, sir! I don't know why, but fan translations of FE games always seem to trend towards vulgarity. I think it's because of a sense of not having to feel as restricted in their use of langage to help differenciate characters. Go too far and you get Tales of Phantasia. On 8/2/2019 at 7:33 PM, KnightOfNohr said: The other one still hits, though. Even still, he can take an attack from each of them and still live at one HP. Arran's a beast. : Thank you- *cough* : Are you OK? : Yes...it's called "Incurable Cough of Death." I only have a few months to live. : Oh...I thought it was asthma. It could be that the Asthma's fucked with him enough that it could develop into something terminal. Maybe. On 8/3/2019 at 5:23 PM, KnightOfNohr said: Hey...what if we retreated? Then, we could fight the Knights on our own terms, without worrying about the Ballistas? : Technically, the plural is Ballistae. : Is it, though? 'Tis. On 8/3/2019 at 5:23 PM, KnightOfNohr said: : Stop it, stop it! What do you think you’re doing? You can't say everyone's got a magic growth when everyone has NOT got a magic growth! : We're going to get nasty letters from the GBA characters saying "Where's my magic growth? Why don't I have a magic growth?" : Are you prepared to deal with that? I don't think so. STOP. BEING. SO. SILLY. I mean, I don't think they'd hear about it. On 8/5/2019 at 8:54 PM, KnightOfNohr said: Uh, after I made the last update, I forgot to put it in spoilers, and it wouldn't let me edit it. ...Is one of the mods able to help out? Cancer must have eaten away at it. On 8/6/2019 at 5:19 PM, KnightOfNohr said: : This isn't a favorable scenario. I have a plan that might work, but... : ...Frey might die. : ...really? Jagen did this to him before. He knows how this goes. On 8/6/2019 at 5:19 PM, KnightOfNohr said: : Of course, even in the worst-case scenario...Frey is probably our only casualty. The question is...are you willing to do it? : ...I once sacrificed myself for my country and Prince. I'm willing to do it again. : Thank you. Of course he's still too noble to object. On 8/6/2019 at 5:19 PM, KnightOfNohr said: SMACK RYAN ALL YOU WANT, YOU CAN'T KILL HIM!! YOU ONLY MAKE THE MYM-RYAN-DON STRONGER! This version came to mind, not sure why.

More speed! So Linde killed Cancer? On 8/8/2019 at 8:10 PM, KnightOfNohr said: Is it, though? I mean, they could turn around the way they came that's still pretty open though. Didn't think of that eh? On 8/8/2019 at 8:10 PM, KnightOfNohr said: At least Radd had a cool name and a cute portrait. Caesar needs an LP to make him relevant. I'm not going to be that brave soul, but someone should. On 8/8/2019 at 8:10 PM, KnightOfNohr said: Then Marth seizes. Archaeopteryx this chapter. That it was essentially useless in the second half? On 8/12/2019 at 6:02 PM, KnightOfNohr said: NO! And so a good flier died. Least she didn't get to see Marth/Caeda on the throne. On 8/12/2019 at 6:02 PM, KnightOfNohr said: ... TRICERATOPS! DIPLODOCUS! APATOSAURUS! STYRACHIOSAURUS! PTERODACTYL! PARASAUROLOPHUS! ORANGE JUICE!!! : Dear T-Rex...it's like Awakening with better map design. .....

Nope, sorry, lost the joke. On 8/15/2019 at 4:21 PM, KnightOfNohr said: Cain, meanwhile, goes after the Starshard Thief. Yes, I know we locked ourselves out of the good ending, but Strength +2 is good, if only for the next 6 chapters... Also, did you know that you only unlock General Arran the Male Class set merger if you get the True Ending? Yeah... That's a restartable offence if I've ever heard one! On 8/15/2019 at 4:21 PM, KnightOfNohr said: : Hmm...I think I know what holding me back! : WHOEVER'S RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THE EASTER BANNERS!! Nonsense. She's really helpful in AR.

Maybe still Matthis. On 8/15/2019 at 4:21 PM, KnightOfNohr said: ...you know, when I was playing this map, I was thinking, "Why is this considered so hard? It's not that much worse than the last." Then, this happened. Certainly I'd prefer to lose Gordin more. On 8/15/2019 at 4:21 PM, KnightOfNohr said: This, on the other hand? This was me utilizing a strategy that failed because of of a ridiculous upturn I had no way of knowing. Besides looking it up, but I try to keep that to a minimum. Castor and Gordin get to live, and I can go into the level knowing about the moving heroes before they spring that cheap shot on me, and actually have a chance of winning the chapter. Surprise, eh? On 8/16/2019 at 5:27 PM, KnightOfNohr said: Perfect. Good job. On 8/19/2019 at 7:59 PM, KnightOfNohr said: James picks off the Dracoknight, gaining a beautiful level. (Decent level. Speed is good) Least someone's trying in that desert. On 8/25/2019 at 6:37 PM, KnightOfNohr said: So...I do this. I'll not mince words here: Merric dies. This was my fault. I didn't want to use the Rescue staff, because I thought there was a "way" I was supposed to do it. I looked it up, and apparently, most people just used the Rescue staff. Or, you know, Flyers...but I'm a bit short in that department. In conclusion...he dies. I'm sorry for being incompetent. Seriously, I didn't even Pure Water! WHY? Merric died smh. On 8/25/2019 at 6:37 PM, KnightOfNohr said: Wendell starts robbing his own school. ...presumably. I didn't end up using this, but I probably would have if I realized that this Silences all the enemies. ALL THE ENEMIES. So it is like the original! Shame we'll likely never see this again. On 8/25/2019 at 6:37 PM, KnightOfNohr said: I RISK HIS LIFE ON A 71% CHANCE AND HE FAILS FREY! NO! On 8/26/2019 at 3:55 PM, KnightOfNohr said: PHEW. Disaster, narrowly averted. Just something I'm noticing. Matthis has the Fenimism. It's spelt wrong. That just seems like the way it'd be. On 8/26/2019 at 3:55 PM, KnightOfNohr said: : Envy leads to anger. Anger leads to wrath. Wrath leads to suffering. And suffering...leads to the dark side. Why Wrath? It's hate in the quote and we know Elrean has lots of that. On 8/26/2019 at 3:55 PM, KnightOfNohr said: The rumors that he's willing to hire mercenaries selling their services at a loss? I think this could have been handled more realistically if the actual gold was a down payment/initial fee of sorts, and the rest would be payed post game in back-pocket-royal-treasury money. But it's a joke see? She's always asking for less that she should! On 8/31/2019 at 7:34 PM, KnightOfNohr said: : By "nice," do you mean nice, or nice? : I mean nice. : Good for you two! : What are you talking about? : Uh...goodnight, everybody! That's a dark turn when her and Merric didn't work out. Because he wanted to be Marth's brother-in-law. On 9/8/2019 at 7:29 PM, KnightOfNohr said: : Some of you may die... : ...me included. AND THAT IS A SACRIFICE I LITERALLY CANNOT MAKE On 9/8/2019 at 7:29 PM, KnightOfNohr said: : Oh, Xane. Everything I said still applies. Including the Loli part?

But again, hormones. : He's got a point. It's not as if I can one-round anything, anyway. On 9/12/2019 at 5:37 PM, Saint Rubenio said: 9 defense on a Mage is subpar? You clearly have no ironman experience. 2 luck is subpar. 9 defense makes him awesome. As I have said before, I not only have never played this game, but the only Ironmans (Ironmen?) I have done are for the later games, with their massively inflated stats. On 9/12/2019 at 5:37 PM, Saint Rubenio said: She seriously should've been a Mercenary. The biggest missed opportunity in this game. Eh, but it doesn't matter. Even as a Merc, her optimal promotion would've been Falcoknight. I'm pretty sure she was a Mercenary, but they realized last-minute that class is arbitrarily male-only and switched it. On 9/12/2019 at 5:37 PM, Saint Rubenio said: That's... Oddly aggressive, against the sweetest girl in Archanea. She isn't even sexualized, like future dragon lolies. What is there to hate here? I do not get it. : Nah, I like Tiki. Marth does too, actually. : I apologize for my outburst. I had sand in my shoes, and was confronted with carefree happiness. Not a great combination. : I don't like sand. It's neither comfy, nor easy to wear. : What the pter--- Battle, Part 1: Spoiler We start by making Wendell a Bishop, for Physicing purposes. "But what of Luke?" you may ask. ...he has discovered true power. Gordin gets a feather in his cap. Etzel takes drugs, as suggested... Dice gets a starshard and learns to read. Finally, his daughter buffs up a little. The team for today. Oh, and our friendly neighborhood viking gets a shiny new toy. Can you guess the reference? (Hint: it's Veggietales.) The battle begins with Horace baiting out the dragons. Why Horace, you ask? I forgot about doubling. I do not trust you forts in the slightest. Ow Gordin attacks with the Killer Bow, but sadly fails to kill. Dice picks him off. The other dragon is tag-teamed by Elrakin and Palla. Nice! Double-digit magic! Good, but still average. Everyone else moves up. Don't worry--the Wyverns can only attack Palla. Which they do. Lately, she's been doing nothing but killing Dragons while riding a Dragon. Palla's whole life is just...dragons. Oh, and this exact level, over and over again. Gordin weakens the last Wyvern, getting... *sigh* Oh, I almost forgot: Darros is here. We'll be recruiting him, for the sake of not fighting this promoted unit, but he probably won't get much use. His stats are probably as good or worse than Dice if we promoted him right now. ...hmmm. Ryan picks up after his older brother. Meh. Dice gets a kill, and the third bad level in a row. Moving... Called it! I called it, you Protosauring Pteradons! Gordin once again uses the Killer Bow, which fails at its one job. Elrean gives this Dragon a taste of his Unlimited POWAH, and Ryan... ... Gemini, stat! Perfection. Less than perfection. Of course, Strength means you could argue the streak is broken. Recruit! For his first, and likely only, action as a member of our army, Darros weakens a dragon. Malice picks him off, getting a great level. Luke chips away at the Swordmaster. He can't kill, even with the counterattack, so he should be safe from the Dragon-- : LUKE! YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO KILL THAT ONE! : HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT?! : DO YOU WANNA GO BACK TO BEING A CLERIC?! : IS THAT A THREAT? BECAUSE I DON'T MIND AT ALL! Palla moves up to protect our prince. HE DODGED! LUKE, YOU ABSOLUTE BALD LEGEND! Good thing, too; this would have killed him. The Devil Axe, sadly, fails to backfire. Gordin weakens--- OK, now that you're not using a weapon designed solely for the sake of getting crits, you crit. Right. : Hey, I don't choose where the dice land. I just sleep in it. : What the pter--- : Gordin, what did I tell you about using arbitrary mixed metaphors? : "Stop it; you're confusing James?" Anyway, Palla kills the other dragon. Huh. Darros gets some more use, after all. Malice finishes him off. OH, COME ON! OH, COME ON! Well, at least Horace lives--- ... Hey, at least Malice lives! Now, our position is a delicate one. We have to make the best use out of every tool we have. There. The tomahawk Fighter can neither double nor one-shot anyone, so we should be fine. There. We were in a pretty bad situation, but we managed--- She's north a ways. Goodbye, last dedicated axe user. Palla, sadly, lacks the dedication to be a true axe user. Also, did you know that Dracoknight is the only Female-available class in these games that can use axes? Etzel Eztcaliburs. Luke swords. Palla sits and contemplates life. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! WHY WHY LOOK, RANDOMLY SETTING EVERYTHING IS ONE THING, BUT AMBUSH REINFORCEMENTS? THESE PUNKS ARE THE FAKEST DIFFICULTY IN THE ENTIRE FRANCHISE. THESE GUYS ARE THE REASON THE EXALT AND THE KING WAS MY LEAST FAVORITE CHAPTER IN ALL OF FIRE EMBLEM UP UNTIL NOW. No, this Mustafar-At symbol Dollar Sign Dollar Sign map takes the spot. I AM SALTIER THAN A LARGE FRY FROM MCDONALDS; TRUST ME, I KNOW HOW SALTY THAT IS. I'M AMERICAN. : Brother, no! : Don't delete my 100% completion LEGO Star Wars save file... OK, this is just rubbing insulting salt into the injury. On the bright side, I don't think Marth can get out of this situation alive, and I can try this deplorable level again. Yup. Yes, what of Al? Anyway, I need a break. See y'all next week. Reset Counter: 6 (Marth--3. James--2.
