Just like how the Rito have chiefs and the Gorons have elders. But then the Zora have kings. Hmm. The politics of Hyrule are hardly discussed, even in this game. Though it doesn't really matter. Vassal states? They can have Kings whiles still having Hyrule as a Suzerain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man's just easy to forget, compared to Wolt's meme mastery, Dorothy's status as anime's one and only unattractive girl, and Igrene's great character. I suppose I owe him a shot. As much as I'd rather just use Igrene again lol My last run through that I stuck with Dorothy and believe it or not she impressed the hell outta me. Was a big help in Ch 21 3 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Elen got the first promotion of the run. I hate how much of an afterthought light magic is in this game. Being weak, I can accept. Being exclusive to the bishop class, I can work with. But why in the everloving world does the first lightning tome have to be available for purchase at chapter 11? Any run I want to seriously use either of the healers, they are already ready for promotion at chapter 9! There's a shop there, let me get a lightning tome so Elen can start doing stuff! She's still probably the best candidate for promotion, though. Lilina is still in training, Lugh might get shafted by deployment slots and Elen rammed her level cap already. Would prefer for her to keep gaining levels without delay. ...Especially when they're looking like this. Hot damn, Elen. Im more partially to Clarine... but I’ll admit Im kinda biased because my wife looks like Clarine but without her snooty ass attitude 😁 17 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Weakness. I will not drop 'em til the game itself drops. Sure, two of them're gonna have to wait till chapter 16 to get movement, unless I pull off the impossible Early Perceval recruitment and the even more impossible survival of his knights in chapter 13, but I have faith. They will keep up and walk the distance. Recruiting Percival in ch 13 aint too awful hard. I pulled it off a couple times. Now pickin up his buddies on the other hand is another story 😳That one Id hafta see done first Worst part is gettin him the hell outta dodge with his ass in one piece once he turns. Gotta plow through enough of the enemy to grab your dancer outta the trees and then turn and burn back across the north bridge hoping you make it in time to catch up with your group before the reinforcements show up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta treat the only ordinary-looking girl in the entire series well, I mean, we're never getting another one. 4 minutes ago, Capt. Fargus said: Im more partially to Clarine... Pah. Pah, I say to you! I look down on you over my shoulder in disdain! I scoff, even. Do better. Use Elen instead next run. Clarine... tsk, tsk. What's next? You use Rootger~? Who needs good units, anyway. I'll spend 100 turns on Legance and Henning, and I will enjoy it. 4 minutes ago, Capt.

I suppose one doesn't get to choose with these kinds of parallels. It could always be worse. My FE namesake is a barbaric deserter-turned-brigand who threatens to put the head of one of my favorite characters on a plate. Not only his head, but the heads of his family and relatives as well. That's a lot of plates he'll be needing. 4 minutes ago, Capt. Fargus said: Recruiting Percival in ch 13 aint too awful hard. I pulled it off a couple times.

Eh, it's okay, though. Immediately after the bridge there's the desert, and then the horrid water temple. Getting that crest early really only matters for 15, which is a bit of a breather anyway. It's not like my armor army needs more movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the OoT-TP-BotW Zoras all appear in exclusively freshwater environments, so much for being "Sea Zora". Considering Nintendo fully introduced the Shiekah in BotW (as opposed to just Shiek & Impa) and then went ahead and gave them an evil offshoot, featuring the River Zora in a 3D game doesn't seem infeasible. Nintendo also gave the Sea Zora a serious redesign, so if the River were considered "too cartoonish & ugly" for 3D with a certain degree of realism, they could amend that. 53 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Oh, I believe it.

Dorothy does have slightly better averages than the rest. 23/23/23 Str/Skl/Spd at 20/15 outdoes Wolt's 20/23/20, Igrene's 21/21/20, and Normal Klein's 18/19/17. Sue is 17/26/30, a serious Spd lead, but -6 Str is bad. Normal Sin is 22/24/26, but also "Busted, Boring, Do Not Use" in your categorization.

Venger_06 Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I saw that Hinoka got a Legendary variant in FEH and that was my reaction I installed FEH again immediately and reignited the flame that I thought had gone out in my heart involving the franchise. Should I go back to playing Fates and create Ultimate Hinoka™ or should I go back to playing Shadows of Valentia and get the Blitzkrieg achievement again? I'm itching to do the latter to prove someone wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot to say this earlier but TotK does confirm that Sidon's fiancé/wife is from another Domain. I headcanon she's from Labrynna. It's not like anything deconfirms she's from there anyways. And since i doubt Nintendo will leave behind this particular incarnation of Link and Zelda (seriously they went out of their way), even if this is the last we'll see of this Hyrule, it doesn't mean there aren't more stories to tell. I could potentially see River Zoras show up in a hypothetical BotW 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Russian way is to send your men walking into the sea until there is a land bridge. Also gives me flashbacks to the game where I conquered some oversea holdings from Castile and got called into a war against Great Britain immediately afterwards, which means that I was basically incapable of shipping over troops to fight the inevitable rebels and my Caribbean conquest almost flipped back to the Spanish. Oh, and then my ally (Holy Roman Emperor Bohemia, iirc) immediately rivaled me after that war was over. Bloody Czechs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightcosmo Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Haha, funny thing about XC2 modding: when i raised the movement speed when in battle, i did not know it applied to any enemy that is a driver, so seeing Malos dart across the screen to give chase is so funny! Basically it's x1.5 higher at base affinity and x3.0 when maxed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interdimensional Observer Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 (edited) Resumed XS. Didn't realize that I was at the disc swap point, seems appropriate though with what just concluded. As for all the scenes that followed, good, but tragic. Tragic, because yes, this seems all so sudden. Invading the Chariot of God this soon, is Yuriev really being thrown on the sacrificial altar so quickly? Wilhelm is the true threat, but to see the other major, certainly independent antagonist killed off in rush? U-TIC/Ormus is going to outlast him? Leaves a bad taste for sure. Not to say I like Yuriev, he plenty smug & hatable. But whereas I have my suspicions Margulis is unknowingly waltzing to Wilhelm's strings, Yuriev is definitely his own man. Having rival, if unequal in power, important villains in opposition to each other, all decently-written, is real nice. -I didn't finish the Merkabah though. My battery had me thinking of saving before the boss at the end but then ending it there. But, then I accidentally let some generics full-break my team and GO me.😑 So I came up for air a little sooner than expected. I wish this dungeon was all E.S. instead of only partly, as simple as it is, there is just something that pulls me in about seeing a mundane mecha missile volley.

Saint Rubenio Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Oh my God, that took like six or seven tries, but I did it. Klein's archers lived. It required quite the tight strategizing, but that made it all the more satisfying once I pulled it off. Sadly, Barthe didn't get resistance again, but he did get speed. I even managed to pick up Thea with all her peggies alive... And then they proceeded to die, because they get doubled by brigands and fly straight north without a care about their surroundings. But who needs Elysian Whips? The good thing about rejecting the meta is that I barely have fliers, and as such don't need to lose my mind trying to save these idiots. There are a lot of things I wasn't expecting from this run, but chief among them was... Having a good Roy. That's actually kind of hilarious. Of course, he's going to lose steam the moment we leave the Isles, but right now he was actually kind of vital to the strat. He had a cavalier and an archer go after him instead of Klein's buddies, and singlehandedly dispatched both. At WTD, no less. Impressive! As for Klein, I fed him Zinque in hopes of getting one of those sweet, sweet growth prepromote levels of his. That's... about as many stats as you can get in a level and still keep it bad. Good one, Klein. Eh, still, it's only one level. Maybe I'll bring Dieck out of the bench so he has a support partner. I do need a dedicated sword user that can actually promote. Even if Dieck is good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
