Florete Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Finally the game isn't too easy. And they want me to clear it without NG+? Challenge accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garlyle Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Oh wow, Kostas map in the Red Canyon is serious, I'm going to try it for the 3rd time. Levelling up is more difficult now, I got almost no exp from the first Aux battle. Also the game throws at you Lv9-11 units with Lancebreaker+, Pass and Poison Strike. They can easily double most of your units. Too bad I can't buy battalions yet. I'm doing it on Golden Deer route btw with Female Byleth, no NG+(I'm taking on the challenge). Recruited Sylvain already, so my defensive frontline is a Lv3 Leonie-Sylvain combo. So that being said, my Hard/Classic no Pulse run is on hold right now.

redlight Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Oh wow. This difficulty shits on a lot of the ways people played the game. Stride can actually be dangerous and being tanky is going to help a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape the Fate Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Loving what I’m hearing so far. Can anyone confirm if this stuff was present in the data mines version? I do wonder if they were watching players’ styles and complaints to tailor against it before releasing it as some were theorizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Mir Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 So nothing on the supposed bug that caused the game to crash when saving on the prep screen during the Silver Maiden paralogue? Is that still a thing (assuming it was in the first place)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technoweirdo Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 For anyone wondering what you're in store for. Deer Ch. 1: Claude vs. Ashe Spoiler The stat inflation is kinda extreme. Gaining Spd from the prologue wouldn't save Claude from getting doubled. In other words, Raphael new meta. Best early game, best end game. trololololol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faustino Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Looks like I’m gonna start on my Blue Lions run and check these things out. But I’ll pass on the Maddening difficulty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure the Scale Tipper Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 So, it’s like Awakening all over again. Except this is actually fair to a tiny extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape the Fate Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I was gonna say we’ve only hit Awakening territory if we have to reload the chapter due to RNG ability loadouts. And even then that was Lunatic+. Although I’ve always considered “just make the enemies frustratingly deadly” the lazy way of increasing difficulty, I’ve never quite come up with a true alternative that doesn’t make things tedious or change the fundamental strategy of the game. It’s not like everyone’s packing Commander/Counterattack etc. it seems so it doesn’t look overtly cheap right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flere210 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 The stat inflation is scary. I feel like War Master may become the new meta lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timon Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 More starting renown in NG+ is the change I'm liking the most tbh, NG+ is all about messing with the game, and we now have the tools to do so. For anyone wondering btw, the title screen change is just a slight color change I'll see when I get the time to play around in Maddening, hoping it's not unfair though, there has to be a middle ground between stupidly easy and stupidly impossible.

Interdimensional Observer Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 So, for someone who got 3H a week ago and hasn't touched it yet, yay or nay to a Maddening first run? -Or does 3H have the same problem as FEs 12 and 3- a BIG jump in difficulty from Hard to the next level of challenge?

It looks like a pretty sizable jump so I’d say it depends on how much you trust yourself. There are a quite a few new gameplay features you may want to experiment with but the fundamentals of the game are still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just gonna say, 10000 renown from the start is ludicrously generous if you’re after difficulty (unless acquisition costs are higher) but much more fun for customization. Probably with one exception I’ll stick to standard NG for difficulty runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least in BL, him, Dimitri, Byleth, and Felix are the only units who aren't immediately wilting at the first enemy who looks at them funny. Not sure how useful he'll be later on, but my opinion of him has skyrocketed fairly quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My next concern is if he'd be able to keep tanking like a champ in the long term in War Master. My fear with him is that the enemies could get so swole later on that he loses his tank niche. Of course, only time will tell on that front. If War Master Dedue ends up being viable on Maddening, I wonder if he'll have enough time to get Quick Riposte, since that would also go along way in making him tank like a champ.
