Admiral "Bull" Halsey Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I've yet to play this game, but for those of you guys who already played it somehow, who do you think is the best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedor Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 (edited) Katua probably Navare, none of them are very good but he doesn't require babying or massacring an army. Edited November 30, 2008 by Jedor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Draper Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 None of the Swordmasters are any good, its arguably the worst class in the game if you're not playing H5. Probably one the cavs class changed to myrmidon are the best, although they're better at being cavaliers anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordsalmon Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Roshe. All the actual Myrmidons are better as Cavaliers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celice Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 In terms of default classes, at least, I prefer Raddy. Always turns out nice for me, unlike Navarre, who would work better as... an Archer, perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swordsalmon Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 For the natural Swordmasters, Navarre destroys all of them. Starting with a C in Swords and a Killer Sword makes him a good early-game character. Raddy is terrible. A base 18 HP and is one-rounded by everyone in his joining chapter. Also, his only support is Ceasar. Very mediocre character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swordsalmon Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 She still doesn't exist, due to being forced to kill characters just for recruitment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Draper Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 There's no ranking system in this game, so its not like it matters if you kill off characters :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celice Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 She still doesn't exist, due to being forced to kill characters just for recruitment. Neither do all Gaiden characters, apparently. You know, going out of your way to meet special objectives and all that. Or do you have a different opinion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral "Bull" Halsey Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 She still doesn't exist, due to being forced to kill characters just for recruitment.

Dr. Tarrasque Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Of those 3, Navarre gets the vote. Kain/Abel/Freyr all make better Swordmasters/Snipers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celice Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Killing characters you won't be using makes them weaker? If you're not raising them, they're simply setting on the side usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Klingy Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Navarre. Hands down. It's a shame that the SM class got seriously nerfed in this game though. Come on, a 10% boost to HIT!?!? Navarre would have been amazing if he was in, say, FE7 (or any FE that had the critical bonus + good avoid formula) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodykitty Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Loss of critical bonus isn't a big deal. What they really need is a +10 or +15 evade bonus, to separate them further from Heroes and Beserkers/Snipers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodykitty Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 its arguably the worst class in the game if you're not playing H5.I honestly think Dark Mage is worse. At least it's possible to get a good Swordmaster.Just like with Snipers (an amazing class outside of those that start out as Archers), the most practical Swordmasters are class swapped ones. Kain, Abel, Katua, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrub Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Navarre starts out good, and stays good/useful throughout the game, however, Radd starts out weak but later becomes extremely powerful. For a first run through of the game I'd recommend Navarre, but if you want to go over and beyond for multiplayer I'd recommend Radd. I use Radd and I arena abused with him and right now I could honestly beat the entire game with him alone right now. Radd's stats focus on hp, strength, and speed with the occasional defense. But in my experience, Navarre had more spread out stats getting more skill and luck and less hp and strength. In the end, Radd will trash Navarre. For more experienced players, don't bother with Navarre and get Radd and Catria sword master duo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gradivus. Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) swordmasters are pretty mediocre anyway in this game, outside of some specific maps, for which you can just reclass whatever strong unit, Cain can get the job done for example, Hardin works too. Radd won't have a str lead over Navarre for a very long time (WEXP plays a role too), since the latter has a better base and a notable timespan for self-improvement between their recruitments. Navarre on the flipside is likely to maintain a Spd lead over Radd and not lose it forever. It might well be good enough to switch to classes like Dracoknight and Sniper, which let him avoid near-constant WTD. Radd has issues damaging enemies at base to get the kills he needs in the first place (although it's possible), and even then he takes a lot of levels to get ahead of the curve, especially in higher difficulties. the OP figured this out in 2008 Edited July 14, 2015 by Gradivus.
