Benice Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) Welp, that wasn't supposed to be posted then. Um... Stay tuned later tonight* for the epic finale! *Unless I accidentally post midway through again. Edited February 28, 2021 by Benice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benice Posted February 28, 2021 Author Share Posted February 28, 2021 My dude saga, the almost penultimate moment: The gaiden makes me wanna die-den. The delay wasn't my fault: Spoiler On 12/25/2020 at 5:38 PM, Hello72207 said: Hide contents there was one in the Legault chapter.... oh right Ahahahaheheheheh... That chapter was a gong show. And also the source for a few funerals! remember, the game doesn't tell you to get Nils to level 7, tell you to kill kishuna, tell you to get 700 xp in a map where a green unit solos half of it, and the game doesn't tell you there's a prize for going quickly in the second to last chapter where reinforcements come for a long time and give a lot of juicy xp. FE7's true ending requirements are fair and balanced, I promise! On 12/27/2020 at 10:01 AM, Saint Rubenio said: Hide contents Very well, let's have it then. I refuse! No! Yeah, exactly! Of course, FEGBAs weren't much for unique classes beyond lords. Plus, the only truly "unique" lord classes are the E8 promoted Lord classes and Hector/Lyn's promoted classes. Never heard such a thing. Overhere they're more of a symbol of peace, as far as I know. Ah well. Ursula is obviously a very peaceful person, which is why she is listed as a cruel assassin in-game. It's just reverse psychology! Not gonna lie, it's one of my all-time favorite deaths in my LPs. The sheer stupidity of that death was just... how? How does a situation so ridiculous even happen? That FE6 LP was about as disastrous as this one! Which is certainly saying something. MARCUS!!! is great too, but in a different way. I mean, I guess. Great. I forget to read the update for two days, and then when I finally have a moment, I get this. Oh, well... Hey, that one's a classic! On 2/15/2021 at 1:46 PM, xigbar7 said: Fun LP so far, Thank you! I'm not proud of all of it, but there have been some good times. also you’re like the only person besides me who seems to know who Kalinnikov is. So that’s cool. I am not alone anymore! YES! And berserkers suck: Spoiler My dude. L-lord Hector? How can I hel- Rebecca told me to give you this. Huh? It's a letter... "My dude, apologies for leaving after taking a ballista to my foot in the previous battle. I got lucky and survive the shot, but, uh, there were some...Complications afterwards. Rebecca and I will be waiting with Fargus on the ship. Good luck out there!" Wil's alive? Yeah. Wahoo! At least a few people will survive this! Don't celebrate yet. Knowing you, we'll have much more to mourn soon. Thanks for the vote of confidence, milord. ... Oh yes, that is a good one. May my plan succeed. We got the gaiden! Coincidentally, my will to live has increased a lot. Oh boy, time for the story. Here we go...! What a great story. Well, the map itself has to be better than the last on- ... WHO DESIGNED THIS AND THOUGHT THAT IT WAS OKAY?! AND THERE ARE FIVE DEPLOYMENT SLOTS Well, res sure will be helpful here... Ha, and they put a swordslayer right away! You can't fool me- IT'S STILL EFFECTIVE DAMAGE HELP HELP NO Sweet infant Jose, that was terrible... Reminder that elixirs and vulneraries are my sole methods of healing. Because Nino died to a Ballista crit. It's going to be a looooonnng map... Lots of boring stuff. Eligood and Hector. Pft, Hector has only one more point of strength than Eligood! Eligood 2 stronk, pls don't nerf. I love all these reinforcements! And also capped speed for even less hit. ELIGOOD! Don't you absolutely adore chapters that either are long and have enemies with 0 or enemies with a chance to OHKO your units? Me too. I'll just...Fast forwards. Also, an Elibad level. Followed by an Elibetter one! ...Reinforcements from behind? Really? Oh dear... Harken's in a spot. Okay, we're fine for now. Well, he's set for life already. I am out of swords! Florina>Weapon Triangle Nils survives a berserker crit. I love this. How do enemies miss a tent? OH BOY Let's just clear out, STAT Another mostly uneventful turn passes! Urgh! I mean... That's good, I guess. Certified Bad idea! Oof... Okay, so Eligood will need to attack with a sword, meaning that Harken'll have to deal a fair chunk at range... We should be set. As long as he doesn't miss... Okay... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ... AND HE'S RUBBING IT IN! THIS IS REVENGE FOR KILLING ISADORA RIGHT AWAY, ISN'T IT? WELL GUESS WHAT, THAT WAS THE ENEMIES' FAULT, NOT MINE! Eligood is kinda hooped regardless, sooooo... Mmf... Wait...C'mon, don't give me a false hope... I...I have to play through this map again. It is possible that your parents will forgive you, but I won't. I don't wanna do this map a second time... Well, here we go. I'll just skip to the only part where anything happens, because before the last area you get to, it's just sit on a pillar and wait. Some nice levels. Annnd we're back! Florina deals with the two blokes blocking the gate, and after recieving a little boost from Nils... What an exciting enemy phase. What an exciting player phase. Hi there, reinforcements from behind. [A few turns of literally no combat because Harken has the key later] The door is open! We've gotta get rid of Kishuna and GO. Eh...Neither of these work. Still, Killer Lance crit+hit kills... Probably best to deal with these chappies first. Y'know, so that Harken doesn't die. Good job. Oy! Stop that! Fantastic, more reinforcements! HELP Harken answers my plea! Florina does too! Also, that's 69 damage right there. I'd prefer if Harken doesn't die, so he'll hide behind Florina. Here we go! Hit! Off to a good start. I will also take the better skill! Let's see if I can end this on this turn. Three hits or one hit and a crit do the trick. Of course, I've only got two attacks, soo... ...That was a miss. Oy, stop it! This made me more scared than I'd like to admit. Yay? Putting the dancer's rings to use here! Please, for the love of god... KJHGFCXTFVYGBUHUYTFD57RTFCVYBGYUT6F5678908HBIUJKNP[LP This...Is gonna suck. Ow. IT'S FINE IT'S FINE I WON'T HAVE TO PLAY THIS A THIRD TIME IT'S UNDER CONTROL. What a map... FLORINA PLEASE JUST HIT THIS GUY Thank you, much obliged. Eligood and Harkengood? Oh... Okay... OOOGH! Stap! STAP! THANK YOU, RNGESUS HITHITHITHITHITHITHITHITHITHITHITHIT Yes... Oh no... It was a hit, but... Oh dear...Someone is going to die. I don't know if it will be Harken, Florina, Hector or Eligood, but no chance that we get outta here. Yup. Well, let's not reset. OKAY Pretty good, pretty good. OHMYGODHOWISHARKENALIVE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~ Oh man... Oh man... This...This one's bad. This one's really bad...And Haken HARD carried for a while, he deserved better... One action too late, it's all over. I...I think that we can beat the game, but... it's going to probably be an Athos carry. Harken was probably my most potent unit... Well, we will see. The last hero is dead. A new one will have to rise in the next battle. Be it the deadly Jaffar, the Good Eli, The helicopter, Merlinus or Athos, however, is still to be decided. ...Seriously, though, I am worried. If I recall correctly, only Luna, Durandal and Armads really do well against the final boss. I have great users for both of them, but they can't be healed, so it'd have to be a one-turn rush with some lucky crits. Also, this was in my imgur album, so you can have it. Another...Another death on my case...Another burden I will have forever. Hmph. A surprise every once in a while would be tolerable, you know. I'm trying my best! Then prove it and win us this war! It may have been a meat grinder of a battle so far, but we will win!! NERRRRRGGAAAAALLLL!!!!! ALL UNITS, MOVE OUT! WE WILL DESTROY NERGAL FOR ONCE AND FOR ALL! HUZZAH! I...I can do this. This is it. Whether all my friends and Serra died for nothing or everything will be decided soon. It's all been for this. And you know what? I may have failed countless times, lost several battles, be hated by the history books...But I am ready. I have survived this trial by fire. Nergal...My name may be maligned in the history books, but yours is about to be erased. ... Everything is ready. Nergal... Our bonds are too strong to be defeated by you. Marlowe? Swift! This is it... We've come so far together...And yet it's all about to be over. Can you make me a promise? What is it? ...Don't die. I'll do my best not to, but- Just don't, okay?! I DON'T WANNA DIE WITHOUT GETTING LAID! ... Um... Well. That's not what I'd meant to say, but I suppose it expresses my feelings... But still! After this is over...We can see the world together, live in peace! I'll take you to my home. We can...Finally be together in times of peace. Swift...I don't know if I can go to your home. 'Cause if you don't remember, I'm the scum who kidnapped you during a civil war... We'll worry about the details later! We have a future together! I can see the places we'll go, the things we'll do, the memories we'll make! Just survive, and everything will fall into place! ...A future, eh? Before I met you, I didn't have one. I was living day-to-day off of the scraps I was thrown for doing dirty work. But you've changed me and changed the world I live in... And I can't see myself in a future without you either. You're like the sun of my life; you bring me light and guide me. I'll be your sun forever if you'll be mine! Yes! Yes! I'll live! But you have to as well! But of course! I refuse to fall when my dreams approach. Now c'mon, let's seize the day! One thing stands between us and unity, and we can start removing it right now! Clothing? ... Two things stand between us and unity! Nergal, prepare to be removed from Elibe! ... Ah, Brunnya. How are you feeling? We are departing at once for the final battle. PRINCEZEPHIELI'LLBEYOURSHIELDINTHECOMINGBATTLEUSEMEASYOUSEEFIT Pardon? *ahem* Prince Zephiel, you are what is most precious to Bern. I swear that I will protect you now and forever. Well, I shall seek to live up to your expectations. Now, come! We shall not wait for our opportunity to mend the world with our own hands! Brunnya! I am counting on you. And I on you. Let us do this! Erm, milord Derricc? Ah, Priscilla! When this ends, can you please continue to accompany me? Well, I could certainly function as a court magician or seer. What kind of books do you have? Oh...I meant as a husband... But...It was foolish of me to ask so selfishly... L-lady Priscilla? N-no! Don't leave! I accept! I accept! Milord Derricc?! Part of the reason I started hiding my face was due to my loss of hope of kindness in humanity... But you restored it. You have boundless kindness... A kindness I would love to bask in for the rest of our lives. Oh...! How wonderful! I'm...So glad...I won't be alone... Lady Priscilla, it is time for us to write the next chapter in the book of our lives! This chapter shall start with the fall of a great evil! Hmph...I'm proud of you, 'lil sis. But now...Where do I go? What's in my next chapter now that everyone I love has been taken? I am not the only one who knows the pain of lacking parents, and yet...I feel more alone now than the day they died. The path of a loneswordsman truly is writ in blood. But perhaps that isn't the life I want. Hoo... I don't have much to say right now. I can't even feel my hands, I'm so nervous. I haven't felt so alive in decades! This is what it means to be a true warrior of Ilia! Living not just for the sake of our own wallets, but also the lives of others! YAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! Man, it would take a full-scale battle between Bern and Lycia-Etruria to match the nerves I've got right now! This is even more exciting than that night when we got back from the dread isle! M...Maybe don't talk about that while Lawrence is listening. Anyways, yeah! This isn't quite as exciting, but pretty close! Speaking of that magical night after the dread isle... How 'bout we tie the knot after this? Make that our reality? H-huh?! Seriously, think about it! We'll have a place to live, plenty of money from this gargantuan mission, and each other! No, I see your point. Yeah, y'know what? Let's get hitched. I can't imagine a better life than one spent with the best woman in the world. Oh, Jerrot! Place your final bets! -87654678 on Lyn dying, -650 on Marlowe, -200 on Swift, -10 on Fiora dying, +200 on Jaffar, + 550 on Florina and +9000 on Derricc dying! They will all pull through, I am certain! ...I think that Juno and Jerrot are cooked. Oh? What makes you say that? Lawrence seems to have overheard their conversation about you-know-when. Yeeaaahhh, you're right. 5000$ says Juno and Jerrot both die! You're on. What's more is that I place 200$ on Lawrence's death.

After nearly a year of deaths, delays, disaster and...Uh...Ducks, our tale finally reaches it's epic conclusion! Missing a valuable member of the team, can Eligood's army triumph over Nergal's final army? Find out now, with this season's finale! Thank you so much to everyone and everyone who read this, and I hope you enjoyed it! Or at the very least had a few laughs. This was a great experience, so, once more, thank you for being a huge part of it! Strap into your sealtbelts everyone, 'cause this update is a rollercoaster and a half. Um, and this update turned out to be really long, so I'll probably split it into two; the next part will basically just be the character endings and stuff, as well as more of me thanking you! THE END OF THE REIGN OF TERROR(?): Spoiler We did it. 51 hours in, and we're here. The final chapter, which is probably one of my favorite maps in all of FE. One good weapon and one... Pretty bad one. "Wields great power" Yeah, the power to REDUCE LYN'S SPEED BY EIGHT POINTS WHILE HAVING LESS MIGHT THAN A SILVER SWORD IN EXCHANGE FOR +5 RES, A STAT THAT LYN DOESN'T REALLY EXCELL IN. It's completely worthless. Especially since this Lyn has nine strength. Nine. Yes, I said that several times over last update with a series of cringy romances. Not a problem! You can normally deploy 12 units, and I have less than that! Here's our endgame squad. I'm not deploying Marcus 'cause he "died" in chapter 15, and I'm not deploying Hawkeye because...I dunno. I have had lots of space for him, but I just don't deploy him. Welp. NO, OUR SECOND ASSASSIN He has fled. At least 11 times. Anyways, here we go! LET'S DO THIS! This is my time to shine! I just need to keep clinging onto life. Everything else can be worked out from there. Why did the chicken cross the road? To kill Nergal with the rest of us! I can do this! I can save everyone, just as I'd dreamt of doing! Nergal may have the power of quintessence on his side, but we have the power of love! Well said! Father...I will finally do something that makes you proud. To free us all from the shackles of hatred! Nergal! I'm takin' back all the lives you stole, plus 20% interest! Your realm of nightmares ends today! I really, really enjoy this chapter. It's hard, it's fun, It has a neat gimmick, feels super hype and the enemies are TOUGH. Like this guy. Boy, Wil would have loved this. He'd have, what, 90 attack on player phase with it? It wouldn't do a ton to the dragon because none of the S-ranks are in this game, but still, wow. ...Is what I'd say if this bow actually was brave. It is still incredibly potent, but does not strike twice. Also, we have Athos! He's good. S ranks for all magic, which means I can heal! Except I forgot to equip him with staves... 'Aight, time to bait Not!Uhai with Oswin! Hah! Nerd! Every time. Every single time I start a final map, I get really hyped and then do something like this. I agree. I'm not even angry. I'm just...GAAAAAHHHH... Welp. Let's forget that happened and push on. Thank you, Athos! Ded. But at a cost. Meanwhile, everyone's favorite tender pale flower is back! RIP Wil. Not even with a crit can she OHKO. Bruh. This is with the + attack from Eligood as well. I barely touched Jaffar, but I'm glad he's here and joins good. Hoo! We take those here! To quote the teletubbies: Again! Again! Jaffar needs to use the brave sword, but whatever. For some reason, they don't include Teodor as the S-rank wielding druid, even if you see him. Which is weird, 'cause they have both Kenneth and Jerme, when you'll only see one on any given playthrough. Then again, I bet that 99% of players had no clue that 19xx existed. DANGIT LYN More enemies to deal with! He's gonna be tough to deal with, but he's 1-locked, so Athos should deal with him quickly. But first, this guy needs to be removed! Fiora does not have the benefit of promotion bonuses or supports here and is outlevelled by Lyn, yet she still has more strength. Eligood softens the sage for the benefit of Fiora. She's there because Brendand will OHKO her if given the chance. Florina, on the other hand, is safe! ...To an extent. Next door reveals best dad Darin! Love that guy. 'Specially the part where tries to marry Priscilla. Also, if he's eligible to marry, does that imply that Erik is a bastard? Eligood can handle this. Oh my god, I forgot how comically large they made Durandal in this game. It's not so much the length, it's the width. Also, that's a bootiful screenshot I got of his thwacking Brendan. Jerme is very underwhelming. However, he comes alongside someone slightly scarier. Just a tad. OH BOY. Fortunately, Excalibur kinda sucks and slows her down to a manageable 20 AS, but still, she is tough as nails. Buuuut it's not effective against fliers, so who cares? That turned out well! This would be a lot harder fully blind, 'cause I wouldn't have my whole heckin' army waiting for her. We got a high levels of unhelpfulness! Jerme is not as scary as a germ. Yeah, I've got Nils, so this'll be fine. Jaffar simplifies it by just dodging. What a unit. Strength is kinda low, but he's tanky and dodgy. Tu es morts! Bleh! Now here come the scary ones. Lloyd, who has ridiculous avoid and will ORKO everyone not named Jaffar or Florina. And Jaffar barely avoids getting doubled. He has a big crit chance and an A support with the Linus Morph, who is also really scary! I sorta neglected to take a screenshot of his stats... But regardless, BRAVE WEAPONS ON ENEMIES AAAAA Time to Deal with Daddy Darin! He's a real tough customer. But if I can get rid of him before Llonus get here, I should be OK. Immediately after dancing, I realized that Hector would die if I attacked again. YOW! Not good... Ok... Fool! After this, the Rex Hasta will only be used to makes Rex Pasta! Whew! That was a close brush. Daddy Darin is Dead. CALM DOWN HECTOR DEAR LORD. Actually, I like this. Yay, a whole four enemies left to use it on. CREETEKAL. Okay, what is up with his defense?! This is the turn where it all goes wrong, folks. Barring some serious luck, I think we're gonna have to take another run at this. Okay...If I can keep the lords away from Linus, I'll be able to avoid a reset. At the cost of probably Athos, though. JESUS CHRIST, LYN. Well, it's my best bet. Whew! That makes Linus a little easier. We got the regal blade as well, but we have two enemies to use it on. Okay... Hm... I won't be able to kill him this turn without absurd luck, I'll allow him to take his pick between Athos and Jaffar. Oof, I was sorta hoping for Jaffar... Yoo... Oh. Aw man, he doubles. Bah. Ah well. That ain't it, chief. STRONGIFICATION OF FLORINA! Perfect! We've just got Nergal left to face off with. Talk convo about Hecotr. This time for realsies, we can face off against Nergal! Has just one use left. You sevred us well. Here's Johnny! Pretty tough, but far from insurrmountable. NO Fiora?! Sure, go ahead. Canceltheberserkcanceltheberserkcancelit It appears that I forgot about these guys. Nice. Not too bad! I'll be able to pop off 52 damage in a turn next time. Um... Ah, it'll be fine. How scawy. WHAT IS THIS UNGODLY DEFENSE?! Um... ... Let's flash forwards to my next attempt, where everyone but the lords and Florina died! Stupidly, I opted to give the kill to Hecotrcoptr. Ah yes, the legendary mistranslation! Bleh! Here we go! Uh... Uh... HOW ARE YOU EVEN THIS BAD?! YOU GET DOUBLED BY THE BOSS, AND YOU'RE THE "FAST" ONE! Well, we're scrood. Great, Bolting. And sleep. Well, there's no point since I physically cannot win, but... Oy... I will not tell your broth! Make your own soup! And then Lyn happened. Many times. Here's Lyn narrowly avoiding an OHKO at the hands of Lloyd, only to get doubled. Seven damage, by the way. Here's Lyn getting killed by a Bolting. +5 res from the weapon, by the way. However... I got gud. I thought about what I would do for once. And everything would come together. Turn 1: Protecc Athos, bait Uhai. This is done with great success! I also trap Uhai in a corner so that can't move. Athos elixirs up so that he can be ready to again. Bolting cost me a good run, so I'm gonna get rid of it proactively. Eligood ORKO's the Pale flower of darkness, so I eliminate Ken next, followed by generic Gespenst. Subsequently, We go to town on the warrior duo, eliminating one while Jaffar solves our Uhai problem. He levels up again later, convinced that he is an armor knight. Lyn is a terrible unit. Brendan hurts Athos, BUT ATHOS HURTS BRENDAN MORE After this, we prepare for the next onslaught. Athos elixirs to deal with the generals before I realize that that is a terrible idea and rescue him away with Eligood, letting Hector do the work instead. -_- She literally cannot damage anything. HECTORCOPTER HECTORCOPTER AGAIN! He is really picking up Lyn's slack. Nice. Fiora still standing strong whilst unpromoted in endgame! The sworslayer actually works really well... But that crit rate is too high to risk. Everything....Everything is going according to plan! What is this?! Sure. Lemme just make sure both my units can survive a round against Linus so that we don't get gameovered... Yeah, we're good to go! That side's done, so let's finish up o'er here too. L Y N W H Y Wait... ... I mathed wrong. 18 x 2 is not 32. Everything was going so well...This will have no impact on my ability to beat the game, but youch. Sorry, Jaffar. EVEN WITH A WEAPON WITH HIGH MT YOU CAN'T DAMAGE ANYTHING. Hector not getting doubled while Lyn is just...It hurts. And after a few turns of whacking at Jerme, He's done for. Here it is. The final showdown. We remove the berserk, Watch Lyn almost die get OHKO'd but crit in return, And surge forwards! We eliminate Nergal's support, And one turn later, he's all alone. You know, maybe it's 'cause I stayed up all night to do this, but the flames really look like ketchup chips to me. It's over, Nergal! We have the high ground! Th-this cannot be! I refuse to accept it! RRRAAAHH! I WILL HARVEST ALL OF YOUR QUINTESSENCE! AAAIIIEEE! I'M TURNING INTO DUST! OR SAND! HEEEELLLLP! AGH, ME TOO! NOOOO! NOT LIKE THIS! I WANT A DRAMATIC BALLAD PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND WHEN I DIE! Ugh! I hate sand. It's coarse, it's rough and it gets everywhere. And now I'm turning into it... This is bad. NO! Why?! WE WERE TOO CLOSE! Wh-what is this?! I've never seen this before... I... I don't know how to save us... BWAHAHAHHAHAAA! YOU UNDERESTIMATED MY POWER! I think NOT! Eh? Nergal. For dishonor and cowardice...I sentence you to the Fang's punishment. *snaps fingers* My power is fading?! Wench, what did you do?! I'd answer, but I will find much more satisfaction in your death if you died wanting to know something. You...! You! Rrrghh! I-I'm solid again. Lady Ursula, how did you do that? ...I hit him with bolting, hoping that it would kill him. He was only being kept alive by quintessence, so I guessed that he'd be vulnerable while absorbing yours. I am rather surprised that it worked, however... Did we...win? ...No. I sense immense power...Nergal's death must have gathered enough quintessence to finish his ultimate goal. Hate to be an Eliwood, but whaddya mean "ultimate goal"? ...Summon dragons to destroy the world. OH. Okay...A tad above my pay grade. 'Das pretty cringe of him to do that. Let's not let up yet! Come on, we must assist Lords Hector and Eliwood in their task! ONE! FINAL! CHARGE! YAAAAAAAAAAAAA! FOR HELEN! Nergal is down, finally. The true test, however, lies ahead. The true test is the Dragon. Ooof! This is gonna be something if I can pull it off... I'll let the dragon make the first strike against Athos. Why did we need status staves? Who knows. Lyn ain't an option here. I heal Athos and resume our attack! Athos is really hard carrying us right now. Athos is so good! Bolting on Oswin. I think that this is it. It is. It is the final turn of my LP. If either of Hector or Eligood hit, Athos can finish. Okay...Okay... Easy kill for Athos now- -Wait... Oh. OH. OHHHHHH YES YES YES! I could use Forblaze, but instead, I'm doin' this. So, you're probably thinking, "Benice, why?! You killed a senior citizen!" And I'll show you why. Boy, will I ever. You see what this is? Not a kill for anyone. ...Or so you think. Even with full supports, Lyn does no damage. However... HOWEVER... I HAVE ONE USE LEFT OF FILLA'S MIGHT. LYN CAN GET THE KILL! A UNIT WITH NINE STRENGTH AND THE WORST PRF IN THE SERIES CAN KILL THE FINAL BOSS! Here it is... C'mon...C'MON... ...She can't miss, can she? No way. Not even Lyn...

xigbar7 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Easy strategy I used for 32x was putting a beefy unit like hector and my Afas drops farina in a choke point with iron rune and trade it back and forth while the other goes in to the top right corner to get healed by Priscilla. Also used nils to make sure they could keep the choke point position. It was slow and took like 20ish turns but also had absolutely zero risk since hector and farina both had weapon triangle and enough speed to not get doubled. Or actually get doubling in Fatima’s case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Rubenio Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Spoiler 4 hours ago, Benice said: Wil's alive? Yeah. Wahoo! At least a few people will survive this! Isn't that, like, half of the units that've died in the LP? 4 hours ago, Benice said: WHO DESIGNED THIS AND THOUGHT THAT IT WAS OKAY?! AND THERE ARE FIVE DEPLOYMENT SLOTS It's a very Kaga map. Wonder if it was in the notes, too. 4 hours ago, Benice said: IT'S STILL EFFECTIVE DAMAGE HELP HELP NO Yeah, effective damage depends on the class, not the weapon. If you tried going at him with a non-dedicated sword user, like a paladin, they'd have the weapon triangle reversed on them, but they'd take no extra damage. 4 hours ago, Benice said: Eligood and Hector. Pft, Hector has only one more point of strength than Eligood! Eligood 2 stronk, pls don't nerf. I've been saying it all LP. Can't believe it's almost over and we won't have any more of Eligood saving the world. Brings a tear to my eye, it does. 4 hours ago, Benice said: Don't you absolutely adore chapters that either are long and have enemies with 0 or enemies with a chance to OHKO your units? Me too. Don't forget that, for as tiny as their hitrates are, they stand an unavoidable chance to delete a unit. Sure, it may be 1%, but... It's always there. 4 hours ago, Benice said: ...Reinforcements from behind? Really? Merlinus is unpromoted? Fuck Merlinus, then! - FE7's director, whoever it was. 4 hours ago, Benice said: Nils survives a berserker crit. I love this. 18 x 3 = 54 No he does not. 4 hours ago, Benice said: How do enemies miss a tent? Merlinus successfully identifies them as traps. They're too embarrassed to aim properly. 4 hours ago, Benice said: We should be set. As long as he doesn't miss... Okay... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO You were just asking to get Fire Emblem'd by speaking like that... 4 hours ago, Benice said: I...I have to play through this map again. Thanks, FE7. How lovely you are. 4 hours ago, Benice said: KJHGFCXTFVYGBUHUYTFD57RTFCVYBGYUT6F5678908HBIUJKNP[LP And count your lucky stars his name isn't Henning. ...You know, we never do see Kishuna's face entirely. Perhaps after he died, he retreated because he couldn't fall here, but he lost his memories and went on to torment a whole new generation of people in the next previous game. Now there's a thought... 4 hours ago, Benice said: FLORINA PLEASE JUST HIT THIS GUY We're resorting to the dancer rings now. Amazing. FE7, man... 4 hours ago, Benice said: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~ Oh man... Oh man... Well. He carried the run, and now he's dead. Godspeed, you magnificent Astram clone. Unoriginal as though your design may've been, one thing that nobody can say is that you were worse than your predecessor. 'Cause hot damn does Astram suck ass. 4 hours ago, Benice said: Also, this was in my imgur album, so you can have it. That is the state of you after being put through FE7? 4 hours ago, Benice said: Then prove it and win us this war! It may have been a meat grinder of a battle so far, but we will win!! NERRRRRGGAAAAALLLL!!!!! ALL UNITS, MOVE OUT! WE WILL DESTROY NERGAL FOR ONCE AND FOR ALL! HUZZAH! I...I can do this. This is it. Whether all my friends and Serra died for nothing or everything will be decided soon. It's all been for this. And you know what? I may have failed countless times, lost several battles, be hated by the history books...But I am ready. I have survived this trial by fire. Nergal...My name may be maligned in the history books, but yours is about to be erased. Yeey, motivation! Let's fuckin' do this. 4 hours ago, Benice said: ... Everything is ready. Nergal... Our bonds are too strong to be defeated by you. Wha...!? Is Ursula Teodor who is Derricc? Is that the plottwist here...? 4 hours ago, Benice said: I'll do my best not to, but- Just don't, okay?! I DON'T WANNA DIE WITHOUT GETTING LAID! ... Pffft... Well, someone's got their priorities in order. 4 hours ago, Benice said: One thing stands between us and unity, and we can start removing it right now! Clothing? ... Two things stand between us and unity! Ahahahahahah... Okay, that one was really good. 4 hours ago, Benice said: When this ends, can you please continue to accompany me? Well, I could certainly function as a court magician or seer. What kind of books do you have? Oh...I meant as a husband... But...It was foolish of me to ask so selfishly... No, Benice! According to FE7, Priscilla couldn't possibly marry somebody who isn't a blue-blood! She's too much of a noble, what about the appearances!? Ignore the fact that, y'know, her realm has been dead in the water for many years, and nobody cares about them anymore, so there's nobody to pester her for marrying a commoner. Also ignore the fact that this isn't an issue to anyone else in the game. The writers just hated Priscilla for some reason. 4 hours ago, Benice said: Seriously, think about it! We'll have a place to live, plenty of money from this gargantuan mission, and each other! 20 years later 4 hours ago, Benice said: our tale finally reaches it's epic conclusion! Oh boy. Here we go, then. 4 hours ago, Benice said: The final chapter, which is probably one of my favorite maps in all of FE. Honestly, it's a great final chapter. Credit where credit is due, FE7 did something right. It wasn't beaten in every single aspect by a prehistoric fangame that is widely considered to have aged poorly. I mean, I disagree, I think The Last Promise is, for all its flaws, still great, and it certainly kicks FE7's sorry behind completely out of the park, but hey. 4 hours ago, Benice said: One good weapon and one... Pretty bad one. The thing is so good in FE6, what happened? 4 hours ago, Benice said: Here's our endgame squad. I'm not deploying Marcus 'cause he "died" in chapter 15, and I'm not deploying Hawkeye because...I dunno. I have had lots of space for him, but I just don't deploy him. Hahahahahahahahah... Good lord, even my FE6 endgame cast didn't look this sad. Ahh, but it doesn't matter. Florina will do it. 4 hours ago, Benice said: He has fled. At least 11 times. Ahhh, Merlinus. It's been a fun time, but it's time to say goodbye... Until 20 years in the future, when you'll have become old, senile and extremely annoying. 4 hours ago, Benice said: Nergal may have the power of quintessence on his side, but we have the power of love! Well said! You know, in TearRing Saga (the game that this game shamefully ripped off), the power of love was the cause of everything bad that happens in the story. ...Just sayin', power of love does not necessarily have to work in your favor. 4 hours ago, Benice said: Every time. Every single time I start a final map, I get really hyped and then do something like this. I agree. I'm not even angry. I'm just...GAAAAAHHHH... We're off to a great start. Benice, you've 9 units. Get a grip! 4 hours ago, Benice said: Next door reveals best dad Darin! Love that guy. 'Specially the part where tries to marry Priscilla. Also, if he's eligible to marry, does that imply that Erik is a bastard? ...Let's... Let's not. Please. 4 hours ago, Benice said: OH BOY. Fortunately, Excalibur kinda sucks and slows her down to a manageable 20 AS, but still, she is tough as nails. But she isn't dead. How did Nergal pull this off? 5 hours ago, Benice said: CALM DOWN HECTOR DEAR LORD. Actually, I like this. Too little too late, Hector has nothing on Eligood. 5 hours ago, Benice said: Well, it's my best bet. Whew! That makes Linus a little easier. About time FE7 let you have a win! Phew... 5 hours ago, Benice said: Bah. Ah well. You lost Athos in the FE7 finale. Amazing. This is just amazing. What a fitting end for this glorious trainwreck of a run. 5 hours ago, Benice said: Here's Johnny! Pretty tough, but far from insurrmountable. Gotta say, I like his turbanless design. If only there were more to like about him as a villain. 5 hours ago, Benice said: Let's flash forwards to my next attempt, where everyone but the lords and Florina died! That's... a pretty big thing to say so lightly. 5 hours ago, Benice said: Ah yes, the legendary mistranslation! The one good thing about Nergal's character (which, incidentally, is also the core of Guenchaos's character), and they mistranslated it. FE7 is so deceptively bad. If you don't think too much about it, it seems really awesome! But the moment you start peeling away the layers, you discover more and more crap underneath. 5 hours ago, Benice said: And then Lyn happened. Many times. Here's Lyn narrowly avoiding an OHKO at the hands of Lloyd, only to get doubled. Seven damage, by the way. Here's Lyn getting killed by a Bolting. +5 res from the weapon, by the way. Now we know why she's not in FE6. She's so bad that she probably got killed by bandits in between the games. 5 hours ago, Benice said: Here we go! Uh... Uh... Yeah... Athos is pretty much required here. At least for you. 5 hours ago, Benice said: However... I got gud. I thought about what I would do for once. And everything would come together. Character development, yes! Let's have it. 5 hours ago, Benice said: ... I mathed wrong. 18 x 2 is not 32. Everything was going so well...This will have no impact on my ability to beat the game, but youch. Sorry, Jaffar. Still, I'm proud of you, man! You've done so well in this one attempt. Keep at it! 5 hours ago, Benice said: AAAIIIEEE! I'M TURNING INTO DUST! OR SAND! HEEEELLLLP! O H N O 5 hours ago, Benice said: I-I'm solid again. Oh no...? Well, that was easy. 5 hours ago, Benice said: ...She can't miss, can she? No way. Not even Lyn... DEATH COUNT: Matthew You... Evil son of... a...! I hate you, I hate you, I hate you. ...Okay, no, but seriously. If Lyn goes and misses a 96% after you put your trust in her for the first time in the entire LP, I'm going to laugh so hard you're gonna hear it from Canada.

Hello72207 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Spoiler 5 hours ago, Benice said: Ahahahaheheheheh... That chapter was a gong show. And also the source for a few funerals! iirc there are only two in the entire game, in the Legault chapter and the Vaida chapter 5 hours ago, Benice said: FE7's true ending requirements are fair and balanced, I promise! FE7 op. I've been playing through on fixed growths and it hasn't done much for it. 5 hours ago, Benice said: Wahoo! At least a few people will survive this! that sprite looks so happy for what he's saying. 5 hours ago, Benice said: WHO DESIGNED THIS AND THOUGHT THAT IT WAS OKAY?! What else has Fe7 done that makes you think they were thinking when they made this game? 5 hours ago, Benice said: AND THERE ARE FIVE DEPLOYMENT SLOTS HHM moment. 5 hours ago, Benice said: IT'S STILL EFFECTIVE DAMAGE HELP HELP NO yeah the swordslayer is effective against classes, not weapons. Also why are you still using a hand axe at 1 range? 5 hours ago, Benice said: I love all these reinforcements! And also capped speed for even less hit. why is your Florina so good what. 5 hours ago, Benice said: How do enemies miss a tent? It used double team. 5 hours ago, Benice said: I...I have to play through this map again. FE7 is so much fun amirite? 5 hours ago, Benice said: Some nice levels. no capped speed this time. Bad ending 5 hours ago, Benice said: The final chapter, which is probably one of my favorite maps in all of FE. It's like Thracia's final chapter but easy! 5 hours ago, Benice said: I agree. I'm not even angry. I'm just...GAAAAAHHHH... This is why math exists. 5 hours ago, Benice said: Oh my god, I forgot how comically large they made Durandal in this game. It's not so much the length, it's the width. Also, that's a bootiful screenshot I got of his thwacking Brendan. Well I mean, Roy talks about how big it is also iirc. 5 hours ago, Benice said: But regardless, BRAVE WEAPONS ON ENEMIES AAAAA Have you played something called any FE romhack on hard mode? This is just every enemy's inventory. 5 hours ago, Benice said: Bah. Ah well. can you even beat the fire dragon now? 5 hours ago, Benice said: Fiora still standing strong whilst unpromoted in endgame! This may be the first time I've ever seen Jerme damage anything. 5 hours ago, Benice said: I will not tell your broth! Make your own soup! how nice to not change his death quote after he knows his brother's dead. Good job, FE7 5 hours ago, Benice said: ...She can't miss, can she? No way. Not even Lyn.. oh please, didn't you watch an egg ironman this? Anything can happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooks Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Spoiler 8 hours ago, Benice said: The last hero is dead. A new one will have to rise in the next battle. Be it the deadly Jaffar, the Good Eli, The helicopter, Merlinus Funniest joke in the whole LP. 8 hours ago, Benice said: My dude saga, final chapter: The true hero of the story becomes clear. The friends we made along the way! ....what do you mean Athos? No! 8 hours ago, Benice said: One good weapon and one... Pretty bad one. Aha but you see... main character power. The genius of IS, really. 8 hours ago, Benice said: "Wields great power" Yeah, the power to REDUCE LYN'S SPEED BY EIGHT POINTS WHILE HAVING LESS MIGHT THAN A SILVER SWORD IN EXCHANGE FOR +5 RES, A STAT THAT LYN DOESN'T REALLY EXCELL IN. It was on this day that the first person at Intelligent Systems said “but it’ll be okay as long as they’re attractive, they’re female!”, before that became the company motto. I hear they’re enjoying a high up position now. 8 hours ago, Benice said: Um... ... FFFFFFFF This also applies to the first game over that I was too lazy to really look for. 8 hours ago, Benice said: Fiora still standing strong whilst unpromoted in endgame! fe6 take notes. 8 hours ago, Benice said: Ugh! I hate sand. It's coarse, it's rough and it gets everywhere. And now I'm turning into it... This is bad. Best girl. 8 hours ago, Benice said: Here it is... C'mon...C'MON... ...She can't miss, can she? No way. Not even Lyn... AAAAAAAA Lyn, the one chance you have to be good... 8 hours ago, Benice said: But of course! I refuse to fall when my dreams approach. Now c'mon, let's seize the day! One thing stands between us and unity, and we can start removing it right now! Clothing? ... Two things stand between us and unity! Nergal, prepare to be removed from Elibe! Hilarious. Absolutely wonderful. You’re a great writer.

Good job, FE7 Weirdly enough, there's actually unused death quotes for Hector/Eliwood that account for the fact their Brother/Father is dead, I guess they didn't have time to add them or something. On 2/28/2021 at 2:31 PM, Benice said: Hide contents ...She can't miss, can she? No way. Not even Lyn... No wonder Sacae fell to Bern in 6 if Lyn misses, she probably missed a 99 chance to crit Zephiel and end 6 before it starts and missed.

Eltosian Kadath Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Spoiler On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: My dude saga, the almost penultimate moment: The gaiden makes me wanna die-den. The delay wasn't my fault: Oh man, I can't believe I didn't notice this update until today... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: We got the gaiden! Coincidentally, my will to live has increased a lot. Oh boy, time for the story. Whew, that was such a close call, but here you are...with no healers left... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: WHO DESIGNED THIS AND THOUGHT THAT IT WAS OKAY?! AND THERE ARE FIVE DEPLOYMENT SLOTS I thought you'd be used to the ludicrously low deployment slots by now... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Reminder that elixirs and vulneraries are my sole methods of healing. Because Nino died to a Ballista crit. To be fair, the anti-magic field makes it difficult for healers on this map (especially with that final difficult push...) On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: ...Reinforcements from behind? Really? RIP Merlinus...he never managed to live long enough to get a horse... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Florina>Weapon Triangle When she is wielding a death scythe like that, of course she is. On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: It is possible that your parents will forgive you, but I won't. I don't wanna do this map a second time... ...Oof. I guess here comes another attempt...good luck? On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Some nice levels. Too bad Florina missed that last speed level on the winning run... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Florina deals with the two blokes blocking the gate, and after recieving a little boost from Nils... Wait, Set's Litany? I have almost never seen that ring used... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Putting the dancer's rings to use here! Honestly, I think most people underutilize them. On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Oh dear...Someone is going to die. I don't know if it will be Harken, Florina, Hector or Eligood, but no chance that we get outta here. I hate it when you reach that point in an ironman, where you know someone is going to die, its just waiting to see who the AI chooses... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Oh man... This...This one's bad. This one's really bad...And Haken HARD carried for a while, he deserved better... Ouch...then again, of those available it was probably the best option. Losing your dancer would be more crippling, losing Florina would utterly break moral, and the other two options lead to game overs... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: ...Seriously, though, I am worried. If I recall correctly, only Luna, Durandal and Armads really do well against the final boss. I have great users for both of them, but they can't be healed, so it'd have to be a one-turn rush with some lucky crits. The legendary tomes Athos has do alright as well, just nothing actually compares to Luna... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: We did it. 51 hours in, and we're here. The final chapter, which is probably one of my favorite maps in all of FE. Oh wow, a double feature...I guess Benice is going all out to end it here! On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Not a problem! You can normally deploy 12 units, and I have less than that! Oof, although to be fair, I only had room to leave Matthew on the bench in my Ironman run of this mode. On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Also, we have Athos! He's good. S ranks for all magic, which means I can heal! Except I forgot to equip him with staves... The lack of staves seems like an oversight, but honestly, I find the one you most want to heal on these maps is Athos himself... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Every time. Every single time I start a final map, I get really hyped and then do something like this. I agree. I'm not even angry. I'm just...GAAAAAHHHH... Yeah, Uhai's troops are a dangerous start to this chapter. Also fun fact while Uhai is still around, Legault actually has a battle convo with him... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: I barely touched Jaffar, but I'm glad he's here and joins good. Jaffar is great from base, and thank goodness, as you desperately need the help at this point... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: For some reason, they don't include Teodor as the S-rank wielding druid, even if you see him. Which is weird, 'cause they have both Kenneth and Jerme, when you'll only see one on any given playthrough. Then again, I bet that 99% of players had no clue that 19xx existed. Giving one of the S rank weapons to a generic was incredibly dumb, so I have to agree with you, have Teodor show up (even in Eliwood mode where he can't otherwise be battled...) On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Also, if he's eligible to marry, does that imply that Erik is a bastard? Or just that Erik's mom died, like most of the parent in this series... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Now here come the scary ones. Lloyd, who has ridiculous avoid and will ORKO everyone not named Jaffar or Florina. And Jaffar barely avoids getting doubled. He has a big crit chance and an A support with the Linus Morph, who is also really scary! I sorta neglected to take a screenshot of his stats... But regardless, BRAVE WEAPONS ON ENEMIES AAAAA These two are probably the most dangerous part of this map... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Whew! That was a close brush. Daddy Darin is Dead. Why does this make me think of Daddy Derek, father of CoolCat... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: CALM DOWN HECTOR DEAR LORD. Actually, I like this. Man, a perfect level...just the kinda luck you need at this point On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Okay...If I can keep the lords away from Linus, I'll be able to avoid a reset. At the cost of probably Athos, though. ...I don't think you can afford the death of Athos at this point. On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Bah. Ah well. ...Oof...I feel like this is a dead run at this point. On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: NO Fiora?! Sure, go ahead. Nice dodge on Fiora's part, but Bereserk staff are no joke if you don't have the means to use a restore staff... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Um... ... Ouch, taken out by the last minute General reinforcements. Hopefully Athos lives til the end of this one On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Let's flash forwards to my next attempt, where everyone but the lords and Florina died! ...the dragon is going to eat this one two isn't it... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Here we go! ..Well at least Florina can deal some damage. On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: HOW ARE YOU EVEN THIS BAD?! YOU GET DOUBLED BY THE BOSS, AND YOU'RE THE "FAST" ONE! How could you expect any more out of Lyn... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Great, Bolting. And sleep. Its easy to get out of the range of those... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: I will not tell your broth! Make your own soup! Kinda expect at this point, although slamming on a guy's worship of Cup of Noodle is not cool, don't pick on people for their religious choices./s On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: And then Lyn happened. Many times. Sounds about right... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: HECTORCOPTER HECTORCOPTER AGAIN! He is really picking up Lyn's slack. This is the run isn't it...Look at the Luck of this one... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Wait... ... I mathed wrong. 18 x 2 is not 32. Everything was going so well...This will have no impact on my ability to beat the game, but youch. Sorry, Jaffar. Oh Benice, don't be Mangs mathing so late here, you can't afford that...well I mean kinda...I guess Jaffar's death isn't the end of this, it just hurts... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: Watch Lyn almost die get OHKO'd but crit in return, The saddest part about this is that she still doesn't kill, because she needs two crits to kill... On 2/28/2021 at 6:31 AM, Benice said: LYN CAN GET THE KILL! A UNIT WITH NINE STRENGTH AND THE WORST PRF IN THE SERIES CAN KILL THE FINAL BOSS! Here it is... C'mon...C'MON... ...She can't miss, can she? No way. Not even Lyn... Benice, why do you make things so hard on yourself...You could have given the kill to Florina for goodness sake.

Benice Posted March 30, 2021 Author Share Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) My dude saga, epilogue: Lyn overs the game. Happy birthday, LP! I was hoping to have finished the LP by my birthday, buuuuuuuuuuuut... Well, at least with this update, I had the whole update done except for the death count...But then I deleted it. I may do another all-replies* post after this, but this is, finally, for triple-realsies, the end of this LP. And, yup, I decided to wait for the birthday to finish the update, because it would be weird not to, since it was so close anyways. *So, if you have any questions at all to ask me, such as opinions on FE7, my thoughts on the LP experience, or my social security number advice, ask away! Slow riposte: Spoiler On 2/28/2021 at 9:52 AM, xigbar7 said: Easy strategy I used for 32x was putting a beefy unit like hector and my Afas drops farina in a choke point with iron rune and trade it back and forth while the other goes in to the top right corner to get healed by Priscilla. Also used nils to make sure they could keep the choke point position. It was slow and took like 20ish turns but also had absolutely zero risk since hector and farina both had weapon triangle and enough speed to not get doubled. Or actually get doubling in Fatima’s case. This LP is a no-strategy zone! On 2/28/2021 at 11:45 AM, Saint Rubenio said: Hide contents Isn't that, like, half of the units that've died in the LP? SHUT It's a very Kaga map. Wonder if it was in the notes, too. Inspiration for the Marcel map. Yeah, effective damage depends on the class, not the weapon. If you tried going at him with a non-dedicated sword user, like a paladin, they'd have the weapon triangle reversed on them, but they'd take no extra damage. The worst part is that I KNOW this; I just forget when I'm doing stuff that matters. I've been saying it all LP. Can't believe it's almost over and we won't have any more of Eligood saving the world. Brings a tear to my eye, it does. Hector then decided to get extra stronk. Don't forget that, for as tiny as their hitrates are, they stand an unavoidable chance to delete a unit. Sure, it may be 1%, but... It's always there. At least the weapon triangle is still a thing. Merlinus is unpromoted? Fuck Merlinus, then! - FE7's director, whoever it was. Fixed it for you! 18 x 3 = 54 No he does not. This is why I only two units didn't die in this LP. Merlinus successfully identifies them as traps. They're too embarrassed to aim properly. Gotee! You were just asking to get Fire Emblem'd by speaking like that... Build an army, trust nobody. Thanks, FE7. How lovely you are. REEEEEE And count your lucky stars his name isn't Henning. You know, I never did find Henning to be that bad. You'll have had two mages and potentially a sage, at least two paladins, a lot of promotion items, Rutger and Deke. He usually took me, like, 3-4 turns at most. ...You know, we never do see Kishuna's face entirely. Perhaps after he died, he retreated because he couldn't fall here, but he lost his memories and went on to torment a whole new generation of people in the next previous game. Now there's a thought... We're resorting to the dancer rings now. Amazing. FE7, man... I don't even remember what Set's litany does. I think that it's 10 avoid? Well. He carried the run, and now he's dead. Godspeed, you magnificent Astram clone. Unoriginal as though your design may've been, one thing that nobody can say is that you were worse than your predecessor. 'Cause hot damn does Astram suck ass. Thank goodness I went for him instead of Karel. That is the state of you after being put through FE7? I'm much crispier than that. Yeey, motivation! Let's fuckin' do this. HEEERE WE GOO! Wha...!? Is Ursula Teodor who is Derricc? Is that the plottwist here...? No, I added the wrong portrait into the post... Pffft... Well, someone's got their priorities in order. It is a valid concern! Ahahahahahah... Okay, that one was really good. Victory! No, Benice! According to FE7, Priscilla couldn't possibly marry somebody who isn't a blue-blood! She's too much of a noble, what about the appearances!? Ignore the fact that, y'know, her realm has been dead in the water for many years, and nobody cares about them anymore, so there's nobody to pester her for marrying a commoner. Also ignore the fact that this isn't an issue to anyone else in the game. The writers just hated Priscilla for some reason. The tragedy! 20 years later Nobody will die when I play FE6! NOT ONE! Oh boy. Here we go, then. Here we go many times, because both Lyn and I are bad. Honestly, it's a great final chapter. Credit where credit is due, FE7 did something right. It wasn't beaten in every single aspect by a prehistoric fangame that is widely considered to have aged poorly. Even though the bar is low, I think it's one of the only good final maps in FE; I've heard not great stuff about FE2, I have no clue about FEs 3-5, FE6's is rubbish, FE8's is a boss, FE9 is FE9, FE10 is actually good, I dunno about FEs 11-15, and...Well, at least VW's endgame is not very good. I mean, I disagree, I think The Last Promise is, for all its flaws, still great, and it certainly kicks FE7's sorry behind completely out of the park, but hey. I do not know if kicking FE7's behind is an accomplishment. The thing is so good in FE6, what happened? Several points of weight. Hahahahahahahahah... Good lord, even my FE6 endgame cast didn't look this sad. SHUT Also, at least *I* didn't kill Raigh/Hugh! Hah! Ahh, but it doesn't matter. Florina will do it. She's kinda falling off. Albeit partially because of all the axes and stuff. Ahhh, Merlinus. It's been a fun time, but it's time to say goodbye... Until 20 years in the future, when you'll have become old, senile and extremely annoying. But also somewhat better as a unit! You know, in TearRing Saga (the game that this game shamefully ripped off), the power of love was the cause of everything bad that happens in the story. ...Just sayin', power of love does not necessarily have to work in your favor. SHUT We're off to a great start. Benice, you've 9 units. Get a grip! I refuse! I cannot lose now! ...Let's... Let's not. Please. Okay! But she isn't dead. How did Nergal pull this off? Jerme isn't dead either... Too little too late, Hector has nothing on Eligood. Eligood is the best of the lords anyways! About time FE7 let you have a win! Phew... Aside from various lucky dodges and super-Shin/Florina/Dart/Farina/Eligood, yes! You lost Athos in the FE7 finale. Amazing. This is just amazing. What a fitting end for this glorious trainwreck of a run. I lost a lot more than Athos... Gotta say, I like his turbanless design. If only there were more to like about him as a villain. Only matched by Alec's towel. That's... a pretty big thing to say so lightly. Well, it is basically this LP in a nutshell... The one good thing about Nergal's character (which, incidentally, is also the core of Guenchaos's character), and they mistranslated it. To be fair, I'd not have been able to do any better... FE7 is so deceptively bad. If you don't think too much about it, it seems really awesome! But the moment you start peeling away the layers, you discover more and more crap underneath. And there's also Cog of Destiny, which is not deceptive. Now we know why she's not in FE6. She's so bad that she probably got killed by bandits in between the games. Or a cat. Yeah... Athos is pretty much required here. At least for you. Too bad I missed Luna 2 and Canas can't fall here'd with the other... Character development, yes! Let's have it. I got gud! Still, I'm proud of you, man! You've done so well in this one attempt. Keep at it! ...Mostly. O H N O Oh no...? Well, that was easy. This is why I need to not make these updates at, like, 3 in the morning. You... Evil son of... a...! I hate you, I hate you, I hate you. We have achieved success! ...Okay, no, but seriously. If Lyn goes and misses a 96% after you put your trust in her for the first time in the entire LP, I'm going to laugh so hard you're gonna hear it from Canada. Just you wait, that 96% feels like a 6%...

FE7 op. I've been playing through on fixed growths and it hasn't done much for it. Meh, this would have been more boring without RNG shenanigains. that sprite looks so happy for what he's saying. I am no artist! What else has Fe7 done that makes you think they were thinking when they made this game? Lyn's design HHM moment. Why'd they feel the need to make every enemy have a chance of instant death here? yeah the swordslayer is effective against classes, not weapons. Also why are you still using a hand axe at 1 range? So that this guy couldn't use his tomahawk on enemy phase. why is your Florina so good what. The RNG! It used double team. Pokemon reference! I thnk. FE7 is so much fun amirite? Very much so. no capped speed this time. Bad ending She doubles everything that she would anyways... It's like Thracia's final chapter but easy! Me, losing most of my units: This is why math exists. M-math? Who is Math? Is that a youtube channel like Mekkah's? Well I mean, Roy talks about how big it is also iirc. Does he? Ah well. Have you played something called any FE romhack on hard mode? This is just every enemy's inventory. I have yet to do that. can you even beat the fire dragon now? Maybe... This may be the first time I've ever seen Jerme damage anything. Hush, she's level 20! how nice to not change his death quote after he knows his brother's dead. Good job, FE7 I don't know why they didn't change it when a lot of character have conditional death quotes... oh please, didn't you watch an egg ironman this? Anything can happen. I have not witnessed much FE7 content, admittedly... On 2/28/2021 at 3:16 PM, Sooks said: Hide contents Funniest joke in the whole LP. Merlinus is not a joke! He is a hero! A hero, y'hear?! The friends we made along the way! ....what do you mean Athos? No! JOKE'S ON YOU, IT'S LYN Aha but you see... main character power. The genius of IS, really. Bah... It was on this day that the first person at Intelligent Systems said “but it’ll be okay as long as they’re attractive, they’re female!”, before that became the company motto. I hear they’re enjoying a high up position now. They designed Fates. FFFFFFFF This also applies to the first game over that I was too lazy to really look for. This also applies to the whole LP. fe6 take notes. When I play FE6, nobody will die, so promotions will be hard to come by! Best girl. Hopefully she won't murder children in the near future. AAAAAAAA Lyn, the one chance you have to be good... She definitely won't mess it up! DEFINITELY! Hilarious. Absolutely wonderful. You’re a great writer. Thank you! I do try. On 3/1/2021 at 9:52 AM, Samz707 said: Weirdly enough, there's actually unused death quotes for Hector/Eliwood that account for the fact their Brother/Father is dead, I guess they didn't have time to add them or something. Wack...I don't know how it is with actually coding the game, but at least with FEBuilder, adding a conditional death quote based on chapter should take, like, thirty seconds. No wonder Sacae fell to Bern in 6 if Lyn misses, she probably missed a 99 chance to crit Zephiel and end 6 before it starts and missed. But she'd get OHKO'd by a wyvern anyways... On 3/2/2021 at 3:02 PM, Pengaius said: Oh hey. You're back, maybe I should get back to my own LP at some point too... YOU SHOULD Hide contents Hark F to pay respects (yeah I've gotten rusty again what about it?) Fear not, I am back, with more deaths! Maybe. SOON Maybe. It's almost over. On 3/2/2021 at 7:20 PM, Eltosian Kadath said: Hide contents Oh man, I can't believe I didn't notice this update until today... It's okay, you had...A fuil two months to notice it! Whew, that was such a close call, but here you are...with no healers left... What can go wrong from here on out? I thought you'd be used to the ludicrously low deployment slots by now... Well, after I kill off half of my army, I'd expect to be able to deploy the scraps... To be fair, the anti-magic field makes it difficult for healers on this map (especially with that final difficult push...) Still, the ability to heal is nice. RIP Merlinus...he never managed to live long enough to get a horse... Well, he makes it to FE6, so I guess he did... When she is wielding a death scythe like that, of course she is. POWER ...Oof. I guess here comes another attempt...good luck? I needed it, that's for sure. Too bad Florina missed that last speed level on the winning run... Fewer green stats... Wait, Set's Litany? I have almost never seen that ring used... I don't even remember where it came from. Honestly, I think most people underutilize them. Ninis' grace and...The attack one are both quite useful, at the very least! I hate it when you reach that point in an ironman, where you know someone is going to die, its just waiting to see who the AI chooses... Ignorance is bliss! I rarely KNOW that someone'll die, because I am too oblivious! Ouch...then again, of those available it was probably the best option. Losing your dancer would be more crippling, losing Florina would utterly break moral, and the other two options lead to game overs... Indeed. And even though bringing him to the end would have been great, I didn't NEED him. The legendary tomes Athos has do alright as well, just nothing actually compares to Luna... And Luna cannot compare to the Sol Katti! Oh wow, a double feature...I guess Benice is going all out to end it here! Ayup! Oof, although to be fair, I only had room to leave Matthew on the bench in my Ironman run of this mode. Better than me... ALSO IMAGINE HAVING A THIEF The lack of staves seems like an oversight, but honestly, I find the one you most want to heal on these maps is Athos himself... Imagine having magic other than Athos. Yeah, Uhai's troops are a dangerous start to this chapter. Also fun fact while Uhai is still around, Legault actually has a battle convo with him... ALSO IMAGINE HAVING A THIEF Jaffar is great from base, and thank goodness, as you desperately need the help at this point... And I have some good swords for him. Still, I find it weird how Florina's offence seems to be falling off when she's superior to Jaffar in every stat... Giving one of the S rank weapons to a generic was incredibly dumb, so I have to agree with you, have Teodor show up (even in Eliwood mode where he can't otherwise be battled...) Then again, fighting the almighty Derricc would have made things much harder. Or just that Erik's mom died, like most of the parent in this series... That isn't as good for fanfictions. These two are probably the most dangerous part of this map... Indeed, and the support makes it even harder. Why does this make me think of Daddy Derek, father of CoolCat... Man, a perfect level...just the kinda luck you need at this point If only the copter promoted earlier. ...I don't think you can afford the death of Athos at this point. ...Oof...I feel like this is a dead run at this point. Yuuuuup. Nice dodge on Fiora's part, but Bereserk staff are no joke if you don't have the means to use a restore staff... How have I dodged literally every berserk in the run? Ouch, taken out by the last minute General reinforcements. Hopefully Athos lives til the end of this one I look forwards to FE6, where no matter how badly I screw up, I cannot actually die to the final boss in this way. ...the dragon is going to eat this one two isn't it... CHOMP CHOMP ..Well at least Florina can deal some damage. I wish that non-prf/Wyrmslayer weapons had effective damage... How could you expect any more out of Lyn... PRF WEAPON Its easy to get out of the range of those... But they didn't need to be here to begin with... Kinda expect at this point, although slamming on a guy's worship of Cup of Noodle is not cool, don't pick on people for their religious choices./s Chef Boyardee has his first acolyte. Sounds about right... If her prf was actually good, she'd not be such a burden... This is the run isn't it...Look at the Luck of this one... AND SKILL, EXCUSE ME! Oh Benice, don't be Mangs mathing so late here, you can't afford that...well I mean kinda...I guess Jaffar's death isn't the end of this, it just hurts... The end was not so JafFar off, but he couldn't make it. The saddest part about this is that she still doesn't kill, because she needs two crits to kill... Good for Wexp sharing! Benice, why do you make things so hard on yourself...You could have given the kill to Florina for goodness sake. I guess we get to see the winning run next time... I must be entertaining somehow! Plus, after the terrible Lyn the whole way through the LP, seeing her Would be worth it. But we're finally here: Spoiler The previous time, in My Dude's misadventures: Quote Here it is... C'mon...C'MON... ...She can't miss, can she? No way. Not even Lyn... Oh my goodness! This could be it! Lord Zephiel, our dat-I mean, plans could come to fruition! Will peace finally come to us all? ...HOW LONG IS SHE GONNA JUST STAY FLYING UP IN THE SKY FOR?! Please...Please... DEATH COUNT: Matthew Rebecca* Lowen ... Nah, just joking! ... Y E SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS It's over. One year and thirty-five out of Thirty-seven deaths later, It's over. Yes...Yes...Thank you...Thank you... Sir Glass...It is time for us to go home. Yes. I'll live the life Helen always wanted me to. I'll take care of Little Elen, and any others who need my help. Do you mind if Lauris and I accompany you on your voyage home? We'd like to put our roots down there as well. Plus, the conditions will be good for perfecting our new "freeze" staff! ...I'll go as well. Galle and I...We need a new start. No more assassinations, no more deaths... You know, my husband always wanted to open a bakery when he retired. I would love to be able to join as well. Derricc and I have nowhere else to go... Of course, all of you. I'll be glad to keep my friends close. WAHOO! We're free! You ready to get married? Heck yeah! I can't wait for you to legally be mine! Then I can do whatever I want to you...AHAHAHAHHAHHAHAA! I've been meaning to use this spare belt for a while... ...Ahaheheh... Excuse me, but are you...Juno llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch? Ayup! I'm terribly sorry. I was instructed to dilver this letter to you. Has the Ilian government discovered my tax evasion?! Oh no! This letter can't be good news... What does the letter say? !!! ... I...We're gonna have to call off the marriage... Wh-why? My parents both just died in a battle. WHAT?! Oh my gods, Juno- D-don't worry about me! Who's gonna take care of Shanna and Thea? We can! We will! Y-yes, you're right. They barely know me, so I can do mercenary jobs to help earn our keep while you take care of them back home. "Women belong in the kitchen." THAT'S NOT WHAT I'M SAYING AND YOU KNOW IT! Just...Don't you die on me, okay? I didn't know my parents that well...But I couldn't go on without you. Of course I won't die. We still have our wedding to look forwards to, remember? R-right. Let's work hard and try to live a stable life! We'll wanna leave captain Lawrence out of this, right? Yeah, he's too old for this. And we won't be able to afford to move my family to Glass' village... We'll manage. We have each other, and a bright future on the horizon. We just have to keep sloggin' onwards, as all Ilians do. Yup! ...But since our marriage is delayed, can I bring out the belt early? ...I'll consider it. Shall we join Glass in his village? We'd be able to build a stable life there. It's not THAT far from Caelin...Hm. I have yet to recieve word about my father's ability to continue to perform his duty as a knight. Ah, general Eagler, yes? Yes. If he is injured or worse, I mustn't abandon my people. Oh my gods, you're a noble! Well, yeah. That's the whole reason you, uh, y'know... I'd fallen so far in love that I'd forgotten... But it means that I can never have you. I'm nothing but a vagrant... Bollocks! I'm marrying you, it's not a question! If anyone intends to object, well, Wallace can do my job for us! 'Sides, I'm not that desireable politically, so nobody will care that much if an unimportant noble shacks up with- A kidnapper. Nah, everyone'll forget at some point. I'm dubious of this plan...But I'll be alongside you every step of the way, even though it'll be perilous! Thank you. Now that we have politics out of the way, let's do lovebird stuff! This lifestyle is going to be weird, isn't it. Well, can't complain! It's time for our adventure! Indeed it is! I cannot wait to see where our journey takes us. Still, this will be excellent for me becoming an heir to the throne worthy of my father! Hmph. I'm all alone. No friends, no family that has space for me... What life do I want now? Well...Lucius always talked about opening up an orphanage on the Bern-Lycia border. I am not the same light he is...But maybe I can do what he wanted to in his stead. (I just hope that his children aren't as edgy as he is...) THANK ST. ELIMINE, I'M DONE WITH THIS JOB. My dude! Does that mean that we can live together now? Absolutely! How would you feel about going to Glass' village? Sounds good to me! I AM AFRAID NOT! Serra?! ADDRESS ME AS ST. ELIMINE, PEASANT! (Oh boy...) ANYways, I'm afraid that we cannot arrange for that to happen. You see, your duty to Elibe is not done. Please, your omnipotence! Have mercy! Once you've scrubbed all the floors of Elibe, then we can talk about mercy! Which is to say, Nope! Now, step into this beam of light. What's going to happen? You get to meet a nice young boy named Roy! The portal will make you jump a few trillion seconds, but otherwise, nothing should be different! Doesn't sound so bad... C-can I come too? Sure, you can keep him from running away. Anyways, off you go~! (Eeheeheeheehee! Now he'll have to do this all over again, just with a red-haired version of Lyn!) Where'd My Dude go? Is he gone? AWESOME! We finally got rid of that guy! I swear, next time I see him, I'm gonna bleed out. Poor Florina... Back on the ship... We can go home! Thank St. Elimine you're still here in one piece! Now that we can live in piece, I won't have to keep stitching you up. What do we want to name our first child? Hm... How about Wolt if he's a boy? Yeah! I like it! And...PogChamp if it's a girl! Why did I bother rescuing you from all those battles? Erk. Yes, O mighty and ever-wise St. Elimine? You've been given a new lease on life! Have fun. Why? Chef Boy-Ar-Dee won his bet. He used it to get you freedom. Wow! He's the best! You'll still visit me from time to time, yes? After all, I am your future wife. ...I guess I have nothing better to do. Sometimes, being the god of happiness truly is the best. Mamma mia! And that is almost a wrap! Thank you all so much for reading this the whole way through, and I hope you enjoyed! You made this a fantastic experience for me, ups, downs, delays and all! If you enjoyed this at any point or got even a smile, you can thank me by having a great day and living your life to the fullest, every day! ...Or if you didn't, I can repay you by telling you to do the same as the people who did. But before we're done done done, let's look at tombstones! I will always despise you for making this run painful. ...No, of course it's not my fault! Someone who lived! Dang, he really hard carried the earlygame, and even the midgame until we hit Genesis, where I started abusing the game's mechanics to make it easier. Oswin is, and always will be, the Bosswin. This was Serra. I missed the screenshot. Here we go! The endgame-ready cleric didn't QUITE make it to endgame. Too bad, I wanted base-magic Serra there. The guy who will make FE6 fun for me! I didn't want to use him, but that's the cost for being bad I guess. He was going to be so good...SO GOOD...But Guy sent him out to Die. I regret this death a lot. I like archers. But this one was too dead for me to use. This man singlehandedly made this run survive by dying a hero's death in False Friends. Thank you, Mutton Man. I shan't forget how good you were. You died in a map that wasn't even an ironman. And made me miss the bad swordsmaster. 385 BATTLES OH MY GOD ...Do I even have to say anything about her? Solo'd half the game. She was good when nobody else was alive to be good. Once things started getting better with the stretch of easy maps, arena and Harken, she fell off due to the overpoweredness of those units, but dang was she vital to this run. My only combat unit with high movement who survived more than three maps! You died a pointless death in a last-ditch attempt to get Legault. You didn't deserve it. This guy sure did, but he died because I am not smart. Despite meme status, he did good sometimes. I mean, he was just awful Shin, but what can you do, his chipping and range access was actually sorely missed. I thought he was immortal after he survived the boat map. FoW wyverns with poison weapons disagreed. I needed him to be alive so that I could have a staffbot, but he died. I don't remember much about him, but I think he was good for the duration of his life. I cannot overstate how this guy most likely stopped a softlock on one of the worst maps I've ever played. He may not have lived to the end, but he was one of the MVPs. Came right outta nowhere as well! Bad (but alive, more than any other mage could say) before promotion, then promotion and BOOM, instant monster. Also, ignore the game, it's wrong, he's not dead. I promise. Garbo until he promoted, at which point he became exceptionally blessed. One of my best for the time he was around. Much like the other units during the golden days of chapters 25-27, I wish he'd made it farther. Still, he was invaluable in Battle Before Dawn. How were you alive? Anyways, she and Farina had a tight competition for the last elysian whip. I don't regret my decision, since all I really needed Fiora to do was support Florina. And hey, she was pretty good nonetheless! My bards have faced 73 rounds of combat. I do not regret hacking the game to make them promote. Well, this is embarassing. But at least she had lots of time to prepare for her lover's homecoming... BIOGAS! Shin was really, really good. I wish that he hadn't been Maxime'd. His offence was some of the most potent in my army, and his work with a sword...Well, it worked if he needed it. He didn't die because his animations scared me. Good job, you are one of three units who didn't die once in the LP! Ignore the 1 L, Genesis doesn't count. He was a filler unit, but a darned good one. Never a liability, always solid for whatever needed doing. Flier with good stats. I wish that you'd lived, 'cause it makes my My Dude story segments even worse to have your death ignored. Panto sure was a great staffbot. Luna sucks. Louise gave me money, which was nice! This man's class sums everything you need to know about him. Hero. Time and time again, he saved my bacon. He deserved life more than almost anyone on my team. Seriously, in just basically four maps, he amassed 130 battles, while Florina basically had three times that amount in eighteen. Killer Ballistae did not need to be a thing. Anyways, she was worse Pent and never really got to see combat. Still, she could staff! Possibly the most pointless death in the LP. The screen is dark because Jaffar is hiding in shame for working for My Dude. I will never not find her death funny. Months in advance I called that I'd kill her on a mage the moment she was recruited. ...She got killed on a mage the moment she was recruited. Still, integral to my plan for completing Cog of Destiny. Only twelve battles? Felt like a hundred. This guy made completing the game possible. Twenty five losses. And also more battles than most of my units! Let's start with the good. Eligood lived up to his name at the end of the game. He promoted and ended up as a high-movement threat, and he was oft needed. But wow, 15 deaths? Cog of Destiny was rough on him. Lyn. Well, she killed the final boss. But wow. She was so bad. Also, because I allowed Eligood to give Lyn Durandal, Roy will be cursed to be just as bad as his mother! Roy is canonically bad because of Lyn. 469 battles, 255 wins and 12 losses. I'd forgotten how much he was leaned on in the earlygame. I think 255 is the engine limit for wins as well, so he probably had more. ...But Lyn ended up with the fewest amount of losses out of any lord and I feel awful about that. And I got the bad ending! Let's gooooooooooo! And the real fin. There are only two thinga left to do... Rankings. Derricc gave me an A in Lyn mode! I am a god gamer! Also, 10: 35 is world record speedrun pace. Now, onto the good part. Oh my god. Oh my actual god. Merlinus himself is telling me that I'm bad. I... Wow. 46 hours. Also, what the heck does 32 screens mean?! And now, the grand finale: Turn count. Why'd I save this part for last? Well, I'm glad you asked. Mekkah-tier strats. Mekkah-tier strats (2) Heeeere we go. 33 turns, 26 turns, 17 turns...Ugly, but not horrific. 28, 33, 40...Yikes. Yo, twelve turns both two maps in a row! Now. None of you are prepared for what you are about to see. 192 TURNS ON NEW RESOLVE BECAUSE I WAS LITERALLY BANKRUPT AND NEEDED TO GRIND THE ARENA UNTIL I COULD AFFORD WEAPON SO THAT I COULD FIGHT A 0% GROWTHS LTC OF THIS GAME TAKES 180 TURNS. A NORMAL LTC WILL TAKE A LITTLE LESS Good lord... 132 turns on living legend so that I could get the god-forsaken gaiden, 107 on FFO, 59 on crazed beast... Wow. Am I going to break one thousand? No way... It'll be close. Exactly on time for Victory or Death. 16 for final isn't too terrible. Now, the total: 1 0 6 1 TURNS Some jokes write themselves. But some...Are crafted by true masters of the craft of being bad at strategy. This run as a whole was indeed just that. A magnum opus of death. And I wouldn't have wanted it any other way! That is, for once and for all, the end to My dude saga, chapter 1: Eliwood and Hector's Less-Than-Excellent adventure: Let's ironman Hector Hard mode blind! Thank you all so much, and have a great night!

I tend to forget everything I know about Fire Emblem when I ironman, too. 1 hour ago, Benice said: You know, I never did find Henning to be that bad. You'll have had two mages and potentially a sage, at least two paladins, a lot of promotion items, Rutger and Deke. He usually took me, like, 3-4 turns at most. Well, to be entirely fair, he somehow took me less time than Legance did in my Ironman. Legance took me like 100 turns, Henning only 80. So yeah. 2 hours ago, Benice said: I do not know if kicking FE7's behind is an accomplishment. It is when you're a 15 year old making a game mostly on your own in the prehistory of FE hacking. And then getting bullied out of the community. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Also, at least *I* didn't kill Raigh/Hugh! Hah! Dude, Hugh's death was a complete fucking mess! I'm still bitter about it, I swear! WHY WAS THAT FUCKING WYVERN SLOWER THAN ALL HIS PEERS FOR NO REASON?! WHY!? WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT, FE6!?!? 2 hours ago, Benice said: Or a cat. Maybe a soft breeze struck her. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Oh my goodness! C'mon, don't do this to me. I've waited long enough! 2 hours ago, Benice said: Y E SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS It's over. I'm mildly disappointed, I won't lie. Oh, well. Lyn may've won the final battle, but Eligood won the war. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Do you mind if Lauris and I accompany you on your voyage home? We'd like to put our roots down there as well. Plus, the conditions will be good for perfecting our new "freeze" staff! Dude...! 2 hours ago, Benice said: Heck yeah! I can't wait for you to legally be mine! Then I can do whatever I want to you...AHAHAHAHHAHHAHAA! I've been meaning to use this spare belt for a while... Oh my. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Juno llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch? Hey, I get that reference! 2 hours ago, Benice said: I...We're gonna have to call off the marriage... Wh-why? My parents both just died in a battle. WHAT?! Oh my gods, Juno- D-don't worry about me! Who's gonna take care of Shanna and Thea? We can! We will! Y-yes, you're right. They barely know me, so I can do mercenary jobs to help earn our keep while you take care of them back home. ...Okay, now that's just plain sad. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Yup! ...But since our marriage is delayed, can I bring out the belt early? Never mind, happy ending it is. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Ah, general Eagler, yes? What!? Since when was this a thing?! Also, that guy is alive? I... Actually, I'm fine with that. I always liked Eagler for some reason. He seemed like a pretty cool character, and his design was nice. If only he wasn't a throwaway boss in the tutorial mode. That stache would've saved FE7. 2 hours ago, Benice said: I'd fallen so far in love that I'd forgotten... But it means that I can never have you. I'm nothing but a vagrant... Bollocks! I'm marrying you, it's not a question! If anyone intends to object, well, Wallace can do my job for us! 'Sides, I'm not that desireable politically, so nobody will care that much if an unimportant noble shacks up with- A kidnapper. Nah, everyone'll forget at some point. I'm dubious of this plan...But I'll be alongside you every step of the way, even though it'll be perilous! Hahahahahah... I like this segment. "Fuck you FE7 writers, I'm marrying the noblewoman and the vagrant and you cannot stop me!" 2 hours ago, Benice said: Well...Lucius always talked about opening up an orphanage on the Bern-Lycia border. I am not the same light he is...But maybe I can do what he wanted to in his stead. This is the same ending I gave Raigh in my FE6 LP. My lawyers will get in touch. 2 hours ago, Benice said: ow, step into this beam of light. What's going to happen? You get to meet a nice young boy named Roy! The portal will make you jump a few trillion seconds, but otherwise, nothing should be different! Doesn't sound so bad... C-can I come too? Sure, you can keep him from running away. Anyways, off you go~! (Eeheeheeheehee! Now he'll have to do this all over again, just with a red-haired version of Lyn!) Does this mean Serra still exists in your version of FE6? ...Oh boy... Woo hoo... yay. Urgh. 2 hours ago, Benice said: What do we want to name our first child? Hm... How about Wolt if he's a boy? Yeah! I like it! And...PogChamp if it's a girl! Why did I bother rescuing you from all those battles? Okay that got a good chuckle out of me. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Chef Boy-Ar-Dee won his bet. He used it to get you freedom. Yes! Yes! Erk gets to get away from this shitshow! I'm so happy for him, I was worried he'd have to endure Serra's antics for another whole LP. 2 hours ago, Benice said: 385 BATTLES OH MY GOD ...Do I even have to say anything about her? Solo'd half the game. She was good when nobody else was alive to be good. Once things started getting better with the stretch of easy maps, arena and Harken, she fell off due to the overpoweredness of those units, but dang was she vital to this run. My only combat unit with high movement who survived more than three maps! "Strong within" is one hell of an understatement. Hot damn. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Also, ignore the game, it's wrong, he's not dead. I promise. Benice kept repeating, as more and more death cards appeared. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Possibly the most pointless death in the LP I can't even remember how he died... 2 hours ago, Benice said: And I got the bad ending! Let's gooooooooooo! Hahahahahah... I gotta say, for as much as I think this game's an uninspired mess of a FE, I gotta admire its balls in dissing the player when they do horrendously bad. Even if I do prefer Jagen's Judgements from FE12, because those were more common. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Wow. Merlinus wants you to join him in being the worst character in FE6. Now that has got to hurt... Sheesh. If you're wondering, usually the character you give Afa's Drops to says this. Since they died (I'm assuming, I can't remember who you gave them to), Merlinus says it by default instead. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Also, what the heck does 32 screens mean?! FE7's translators being pros at their job as always. That's what. 2 hours ago, Benice said: Mekkah-tier strats. Mekkah-tier strats (2) How did you even do that? Explain to me! I missed Lyn mode! 2 hours ago, Benice said: That's more like it. 2 hours ago, Benice said: 1 0 6 1 TURNS Some jokes write themselves. No comment. I've been surpassed. Clearly I must cede the "worst tactician ever" badge to you. Congratulations. 2 hours ago, Benice said: FINAL DEATH COUNT: Matthew Rebecca* Lowen Guy Serra Bartre Dorcas Marcus Erk Priscilla~ Wil x 3 Lucius My honor Kent Legault% Raven* Helen Isadora Sain Oswin Heath Canas Rath Dart Vaida Panto Louise Pingu's villainous career Nino Wil Farina Geitz Harken Jaffar Athos Defeated as enemy *Retreated ~Captured % Unrecruitable ??? Discharged/killed pre-reset. Dishonorably spared Not yet canonized RESET COUNT: TOO MANY TO COUNT Merlinus deaths as merchant: 11 Harken deserved better. What a wild ride this has been. I cannot wait for the next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eltosian Kadath Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Spoiler 3 hours ago, Benice said: ALSO IMAGINE HAVING A THIEF The number of promotion items you miss out on without a thief really makes this game torture...having run through quite a few failed ironman runs before my successful one, I know the pain of a thiefless FE7 HHM ironman well enough... 45 minutes ago, Benice said: Even though the bar is low, I think it's one of the only good final maps in FE; I've heard not great stuff about FE2, I have no clue about FEs 3-5, FE6's is rubbish, FE8's is a boss, FE9 is FE9, FE10 is actually good, I dunno about FEs 11-15, and...Well, at least VW's endgame is not very good. Eh, I think it depends a bit on what you are looking for in a final map, but I think there are some alright ones you are missing out on. Taking FE4's final map as a whole its solid, the Nergal part of FE7's final map was a clear riff on the final map of FE5, FE14 Revelations's final map is reminiscent of FE10's as it is a big multipart boss fight that kinda works, while FE14 Conquest's final map is intense (and accurately portrayed the edgiest lord of FE14 as the real baddie due to his edginess), and the FE15 final map is fairly good as final maps go. 59 minutes ago, Benice said: Do you mind if Lauris and I accompany you on your voyage home? We'd like to put our roots down there as well. Plus, the conditions will be good for perfecting our new "freeze" staff! That is a dark implication for how he died in a blizzard... 1 hour ago, Benice said: Heck yeah! I can't wait for you to legally be mine! Then I can do whatever I want to you...AHAHAHAHHAHHAHAA! I've been meaning to use this spare belt for a while... ...Rubenio has been a bad influence on you hasn't he... 1 hour ago, Benice said: Nah, everyone'll forget at some point. I'm dubious of this plan...But I'll be alongside you every step of the way, even though it'll be perilous! Thank you. Now that we have politics out of the way, let's do lovebird stuff! This lifestyle is going to be weird, isn't it. Well, can't complain! Oh the naiveté of these two. 1 hour ago, Benice said: Well...Lucius always talked about opening up an orphanage on the Bern-Lycia border. I am not the same light he is...But maybe I can do what he wanted to in his stead. (I just hope that his children aren't as edgy as he is...) Heh, I guess we will see him again in FE6 chapter 3... 1 hour ago, Benice said: C-can I come too? Sure, you can keep him from running away. Anyways, off you go~! (Eeheeheeheehee! Now he'll have to do this all over again, just with a red-haired version of Lyn!) The addition of Florina to the future FE6 LP side story is going to be an interesting touch. Hopefully she isn't too disheartened by My Dude's future strategies. 1 hour ago, Benice said: Yeah! I like it! And...PogChamp if it's a girl! Why did I bother rescuing you from all those battles? ...I am kind hoping you edit the game (or just the LP) to make Wolt into a girl named PogChamp now.... 1 hour ago, Benice said: 385 BATTLES OH MY GOD ...Do I even have to say anything about her? Solo'd half the game. She was good when nobody else was alive to be good. Once things started getting better with the stretch of easy maps, arena and Harken, she fell off due to the overpoweredness of those units, but dang was she vital to this run. My only combat unit with high movement who survived more than three maps! Obvious MVP for so very much of the run. 1 hour ago, Benice said: Only twelve battles? Felt like a hundred. This guy made completing the game possible. Wow, that is a lower battle count than I expected. I guess he didn't do all the heavy lifting on the winning run, and it was the might of your remaining army that really saved the day. 1 hour ago, Benice said: Also, because I allowed Eligood to give Lyn Durandal, Roy will be cursed to be just as bad as his mother! Roy is canonically bad because of Lyn. ...oh this bodes poorly for the FE6 LP to come doesn't it... 1 hour ago, Benice said: 469 battles, 255 wins and 12 losses. I'd forgotten how much he was leaned on in the earlygame. I think 255 is the engine limit for wins as well, so he probably had more. That is interesting...perhaps 255 really is the cap for wins. 1 hour ago, Benice said: And I got the bad ending! Let's gooooooooooo! Yeah...I also got that one on my successful ironman... 1 hour ago, Benice said: Oh my god. Oh my actual god. Merlinus himself is telling me that I'm bad. I... Wow. 46 hours. Also, what the heck does 32 screens mean?! ...Wow, 1 on everything (except Combat, but the only time I have ever seen a combat star rating below 5 was in an FE7 negative growths run where the player was actively avoiding kills, and even then it only dropped to 3...), in an odd way that is rather impressive. I kinda wish I knew what my ranking was on my ironman, but alas I had clear data already, which it simply could not beat... 1 hour ago, Benice said: 192 TURNS ON NEW RESOLVE BECAUSE I WAS LITERALLY BANKRUPT AND NEEDED TO GRIND THE ARENA UNTIL I COULD AFFORD WEAPON SO THAT I COULD FIGHT I was kinda waiting for a chapter with a turn count over a hundred... 1 hour ago, Benice said: 1 0 6 1 TURNS Yikes. Out of curiosity I double checked the turn count of my own ironman, and it was around 826. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooks Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Spoiler Yay! Congratulations! ...that’s really all I have to say. The story segment at the end was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hello72207 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Spoiler Congrats on finishing this thing! Now do FE6 so I can laugh even harder. 15 hours ago, Benice said: Me, losing most of my units: I suggest you don't ironman Thracia. 15 hours ago, Benice said: how nice to not change his death quote after he knows his brother's dead. Good job, FE7 I don't know why they didn't change it when a lot of character have conditional death quotes... Once again, This games writing shines as one of the best in the world's 15 hours ago, Benice said: Do you mind if Lauris and I accompany you on your voyage home? We'd like to put our roots down there as well. Plus, the conditions will be good for perfecting our new "freeze" staff! L 15 hours ago, Benice said: Sure, you can keep him from running away. Anyways, off you go~! (Eeheeheeheehee! Now he'll have to do this all over again, just with a red-haired version of Lyn!) the only difference is Lyn at least had speed going for her. jokes aside, Roy's probably still better then Lyn. At least there's something good for him in the game. 15 hours ago, Benice said: Exactly on time for Victory or Death. yo, at least you did battle preparations in 6 turns, that is really hard to accomplish! nice turncount.
