stat categories

5. Skill
4. Defense
3. Movement
2. Str/Mag, but pick one
1. Speed

Speed is almost always the god stat. Then you need Str/Mag to actually be useful. Bad movement cripples otherwise good units. And then it's a tossup for Def/Skl/Res/HP but I stand by my decisions here.

top 5 characters that never join you

I'm gonna throw part of this into spoilers aside from the game in question. And I'm going to interpret it as "...and you might reasonably have expected them to" or else it would have a bunch of villains on it.

5. Reinhardt (5) He really seems like he'll be recruitable but he's not. Honestly he's sort of a nothing character in FE5 but I like him in Heroes because I'm scumbag cavalry emblem user.
4. Fargus (7). Have you seen this dude's stats? Holy SHIT. Just let this guy fight Nergal.
3. Lloyd (7) EVERYONE wanted to recruit this guy. You even had to meet a special requirement to fight him later, and he seems more reasonable than Linus, and Nino can talk to him, and you just... can't recruit him. DUMB.
2. Galle (6) UGH why are you not recruitable you dumb idiot you can even talk to him with Melady and he'll turn non-aggressive but he still won't join you. Annoying. If you leave him alive the game doesn't even have the courtesy to reward you for it.
1. Eldigan (4) I think the story is better if he doesn't join you but I want him to because I love him. Eldigan is great, I'm so glad he's suddenly popular now.
Secret #0. The 5* units I want (Heroes)

Primary antagonists

I think most games have pretty mediocre ones honestly. The secondary villains are generally better IMO.

5. Zephiel (FE6). Uh, because he beats the ones I didn't put on this list.
4. Nergal (FE7). I've played FE7 enough to be kinda sick of this dude but he's fairly compelling the first time around.
3. Ashnard (FE9). He was a refreshing change of pace, unfortunately FE10 kinda retconned him into a mid-boss.
2. Lyon (FE8). I guess it's debatable if he's the primary villain or not. I don't really count the Demon King in here, he's really just a generic evil guy. Lyon himself is way more interesting, if you believe he's actually... there at all.
1. Arvis (FE4). Again I guess it's debatable but he's the most compelling villain in the game with the most compelling story.

Top 5 Maps/Chapters (in cases where this is a bit more nebulous like FE7's Final Chapter I leave it to your discretion how to count it)

Oh man I'm glad you brought up that example cuz it's gonna be on here.

5. FE8's desert chapter. Reuniting your party, fighting Valter and Caellach, and one of the better designed desert maps in terms of interesting terrain. Good map zone.
4. FE9 priest shoving. Love it.
3. FE6's desert chapter. Man, two desert chapters on here. I'm taking a break from politics but the opinions are just as weird. I love how much stupid shit the game throws at you in this chapter, it's really just a huge fuck you on every level and I love it.
2. FE10 part 3-final. An ominously ticking down number and a huge war that the whole game's been building up to.
1. FE7 final chapter. Boss rush, Nergal, and trying to one-shot the dragon with Luna. Fun times, and maybe the most challenging final chapter.

Nothing from FE4 cuz it would be unfair~

Top 5 favorite unimportant bosses

5. The first boss in FE4 who doesn't have a ranged weapon and if you fight him with an archer he calls you a coward.
4. Nedata (9) He's a singing pirate and I want to recruit him so badly.
3. I forget his name but the guy in FE9 who uses priests as a shields and then when he dies he says he shoulda brought more of them or some babies.
2. Gazak, the first boss in the series. He's technically playable now in Fates as a captureable enemy so who knows how unimportant he is but I love this dumb bandit
1. Denning (7) The "This is a message from Lord Nergal. I await you on the Dread Isle." guy. I want to recruit him.

Shonen_Bat posted...

bosses

I'm not big on bosses in the series frankly, I don't find them super challenging or memorable usually. But let's see.

5. Ike vs. Black Knight (10). Way better than the FE9 version even if you can cheese it pretty easily.
4. Valter + Caellach (8). A big turning point in the game with awesome pre-battle dialogue for Cormag and Joshua.
3. Gharnef (1, 3, 11, 12). I actually kind of respect the Starlight gimmick, it adds a different layer to the fight.
2. Lloyd (7) in Cog of Destiny. There's a big emotional impact from fighting him and he's definitely one of the harder bosses in a generally easy game.
1. Ishtar and Julius (4) in chapter 10 I think, when you're supposed to run from them but if you're gutsy you can fight them.

I guess idk.

Swords

5. Binding Blade (6) lmfao get wrecked everyone who isn't roy
4. Audhulma (8) I honestly just like the name.
3. Brave Sword (like every game), cuz if you ever want something dead, Brave weapons will do it.
2. Ragnell (9/10). Way to raise the bar there on legendary swords. Lords have never had it as good as Ike.
1. Mistoltin (4) because it's the Mistletoe Sword and that's great.

trees, or bushes if you prefer

5. The trees you have to knock down to cross rivers in the GBA games
4. Generic trees that provide terrain bonuses but are harder to move through.
3. The tree that Gatrie would hit on if it was wearing a skirt (FE9)
2. The impassable T H I C K W O O D S in the GBA games
1. that big tree in Valentia/Valm I guess?

More info from the article:

Surveillance video showed Garcia Zarate running away. After his arrest, investigators found gunshot residue on his right hand, prosecutor Diana Garcia told jurors.

Garcia Zarate faced a charge of second-degree murder, but jurors also were allowed to consider first-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter convictions.

Prosecutors said Garcia Zarate was playing his own "secret version of Russian roulette" and deliberately fired into an unsuspecting crowd on the pier, killing Steinle.

Defense attorney Matt Gonzalez said Garcia Zarate found the gun at the pier. He said it was wrapped in cloth, and when Garcia Zarate unwrapped it, the gun accidentally discharged. But in a police interrogation, Garcia Zarate admitted to firing the gun, saying he was aiming at a seal.

The ol' "sorry I thought you were a seal" defense, eh?

I'm not even saying the prosecution didn't overreach but you've got to understand what this looks like to most people.

This looks like an illegal alien who was deported five times shot and killed a white American girl and got away with it.

The average person isn't going to give a fuck about an overreach when it's read to them like that, and it will be.

GG dems.

Why does it matter to the average person that the victim was white or that the shooter was an illegal alien? *thinking emoji*

I don't agree it's disrespectful to use Pocahontas in that way on principle, though. I repeatedly compared it to calling people Einstein, which I really think is basically all it is.

Not really. If you ask KKK members if they're racist they'll just say they're "race realists" or something.

They intend to do things that, to you and me, are blatantly racist, but a lot don't see it that way themselves, in part because they tend to deny that racism exists at all.

I think a lot of people just treat these topics as a fight and project the dumbest meaning possible onto any text from the adversary and read it that way. Like I can't count the number of times in these topics I've had to reiterate the same point because people keep putting words in my mouth that are not what I'm actually saying at all.

Yeah, I've had the same experience, but it's mostly with the same handful of people (which includes you, not to be a dick but just saying). Though I think part of the issue is that what counts as "the most sensible reading" is itself up for interpretation and depends on the reader's values.

Instead of just saying makes zero sense you should explain to the man why it does not make sense.

Or you can just insult each other. I'm convinced you guys really love it. The circle jerk is actually everybody!

That is the basis of it not making sense. He already knows the answers to stupid questions and he keeps just asking them in stupid ways to try and frustrate or find a discrepancy that he thinks he can exploit. It is a very nongenuine string of questioning which serves no purpose. No traitors who are Patriots of other entities do not generally bring aboit good results to your country in the short term, can possibly in the long term, or likely could never.

I mean, if you want to argue that is rebelling benefited the UK as we are now their best friends and helped them in WW2 then by all.means have at it.

The answer is that it depends on who the fuck you are in the equation of your question and you know that yet keep asking it.

So what's the value of patriotism then?

This applies to probably 90% of the people who are in these topics btw. Circular arguments occur for a reason.

I disagree. I think the majority of the topic is pretty good at reading and understanding someone's point (sometimes even too good at it, trying to find a point where there actually wasn't one). Circular arguments occur because someone doesn't have a response, because they're trolling, or more charitably because the two sides have reached a key issue that they fundamentally disagree on yet cannot move past.

Patriotism often involves exterminating groups of people so imo it fits right in.

Now if you condemn genocide and are still patriotic for a country that's committed it, that's probably a cue to reexamine your beliefs.
