Ephidel Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Ah, if you're an arena abuser, then I guess you don't really need suggestions on what characters to use. Elice comes after chapter 23 (meaning she'll be in C24's prep screen).The real Gharnef's position is random. Medeus can't be doubled in H5, enemies will have increased STR growths and quickly switch to stronger weapons. However, abusers may not find the game challenging at all since you'll be able to nuke late game enemies with ease. Brave weapons are obtainable in the online shop in the weekends. With overpowered units, you may find the C24 reinforcements to be disappointing =\. My only regret is that I don't have Wi-Fi, so no online shop for me! :'( Was I just imagining it, or is it possible to access the DS WFC via the Wii's Sensor Bar? Surely it's theoretically possible given the downloadable Demos on the Nintendo Channel? Meh. Just a thought (and a dream). I managed to 20/20 Elice on those Reinforcements on Normal. I used Marth as a Wall whilst Elice spammed Recover Staves (Healing Staves are essential for Arena abuse). Then she destroyed the Manaketes with Magic. I finished the rest off with Berserker Darros including Xemcel (Note : Darros was about 20/10 with APPALLING Spd). I guess I was a bit too greedy with wanting another 20/20 character. Are the Arenas proportionately harder on Merciless, or are they a joke just like Normal mode? RnK really turned the screws on with the Arenas on Hard Mode. Thanks again.

Dr. Tarrasque Posted January 18, 2009 Author Share Posted January 18, 2009 Dunno, I only used the arenas in my Wifi team file and that's it. I hear they're quite difficult to abuse though. Don't think you can access the DS WFC via the wii sensor bar... first I've heard of such a thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Arenas, this is the first FE game where I've ever accepted a 1400 wager and won with ease. It really is incredibly easy on Normal. I guess I hope that they haven't altered the Arena difficulty on Merciless, as it makes the Arenas seem more like sidequest than a main part/facility of the story. That way, at least the Arenas could be treated like a separate entity altogether. I like it when games allow for freedoms, but I guess it opens it up to abuse and thus can spoil a challenge.

BlueRose95 Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Erh Excuse me but in the tier list Zagaro is a good unit but which class is the best for him ? And if I forget to shapeshift Cheine (lvl30) does he have a change to dodge ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero makes him a decent fighter. General makes him an epic tank. General's the best IMO. Chainey/Xane is better off imitating/shape shifted as one of your strong units. He won't survive for long if he remains in his original form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FionordeQuester Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Hey Levin, on the Chapter 11 guide, you said that you reclasses Barth, but it almost looks like you forgot what you reclassed him into. What class did you give Barth on Chapter 11? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FionordeQuester Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I realized that he was Barst, but for some reason, I didn't really want to call him that as opposed to the name I was used to. But now that I think of it, it's a better name anyways, so Barst he is I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FionordeQuester Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Uh...Levin...remember that armor knight from Chapter 10? The one that you said wouldn't move till I got into the range of the snipers? Well uh...I had all my units outside the archers range...and he came up to Bantu and criticaled him...even though you said he wouldn't move till I was in the archers range...

Dr. Tarrasque Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 (edited) Interesting. Can you send me a save file of that chapter and/or a picture marking the AK you're referring to? I wasted several turns trying to see if the AK I was talking about moved or not but he never did unless an archer would attack me too.

FionordeQuester Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Hey Levin, I really think you should alter chapter 3 slightly. Your strategy is to split your units up to deal with Navarres squad and the three axe dudes comin from the west, but I find that that puts your team at real risk. Instead, I find it more convenient to just go all out at the axe dudes, putting Oguma on the forest where the closest Axe dude can just barely reach him, and do major damage. After that, just swarm and overwhelm the 3 axe dudes with all your units might. What about the cleric girl you asked? Just send one of your worthless units as a meatshield for her, that's what I did.

I've tried dealing with the western fighters first but you'll end up surrounded and it would require much luck to survive. It's best to take on Navarre's group first and THEN deal with the western fighters since since you'll be able to prevent 2 of them from attacking a single unit more easily.

That's not what happened with me, I just wiped out all three fighters in one turn, and Navarre and the two thieves with him were far enough ahead of the other axe dudes that by the time they were able to catch up with the cleric girl, it took the axe fighters another turn to catch up to Navarre. Mainly, I just tried to kill the thieves as fast as possible while using my "expendable units" to do everything they can to block the axe dudes. I'd demonstrate it, but my Emulator still crashes on me, and since the only way I play it now is on a real DS, I can't show you. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 Add this line: Alternatively, you could focus on the western fighters first and have units you're going to kill off in this chapter block the Fighters from Nabarl's group. Personally, I'd have the useless units attack Reynard in hope of not needing Killing Edge's critical, but it seems your method can work as well.

Dr. Tarrasque Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 It's definetly a lot safer and more convenient. Isn't that only the case if you're actually going to kill units? It pretty much requires you to sacrifice some1 just to keep Lena alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FionordeQuester Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Hey Levin, when you class changed Merric and Lena into a cleric and mage respectively, about how long did you keep them class changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted February 21, 2009 Author Share Posted February 21, 2009 (edited) She was a mage just for chapter 6x and maybe in another chapter before 10. I believe I noted whenever I switched Merric into Curate/Mage. Edited February 21, 2009 by Levin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FionordeQuester Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I see. In chapter 12, you said you got Merric to level 19 without staff abuse, but I didn't see anything about you actually changing him past chapter 6x in the first place, but who knows, maybe I missed it, I'll check.

Dr. Tarrasque Posted February 21, 2009 Author Share Posted February 21, 2009 He was changed to mage for chapter 7 because I thought I'd need Excalibur. In chapter 11, when I said "staff abuse" I mean having the ballisticans damage my units and then spend lots of turns having Merric heal them. I did however spam Physics and Barrier staff with him, which explains why he got so many level ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FionordeQuester Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 So wait, in your guide, are you recommending both Cain and Abel to be Snipers by the endgame, or did you only have both of them as Snipers just to find out which one would be the better Parisian user?

Dr. Tarrasque Posted February 22, 2009 Author Share Posted February 22, 2009 (edited) I had them as Snipers because for my play style, that was their best choice. Wolf and Sedgar were enough for tanking and turning Cain and Abel to Swordmasters would be stupid since they'd have to take a Brave Weapon counter-attack (SM poor defense says hi). Paladin and Draco Knight are pretty much the same and the MOV isn't helping since I kept my units close together.
