| Lopen 02/23/18 5:36:22 PM #4 | You can't really say flat out HP is a better stat than DEF or RES. DEF or RES give you better returns if - You expect to be doubled a non-negligible amount of the time - You expect to use a skill fueled by DEF or RES, of which there are significantly more than HP, and generally get better returns than HP for not having the 'most' In general I'd rather tank a low defensive stat than HP, but if both defensive stats are decent it's definitely not a cut and dry decision and will depend on the other stats and skills that work with the unit. Though I do agree people undervalue HP somewhat. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

| Lopen 02/23/18 3:02:59 PM #497 | To be clear I don't think it's any good but it's a clear tier above. Like I have to focus in on the eyes-- just glancing through my character list past Florina I don't get a sense of revulsion from the art (beyond it being Florina) nor do I even get a "that's not Florina." Second tier from the bottom sure I'll accept but deffo clearly better than Lloyd. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

| Lopen 02/23/18 2:26:47 PM #321 | SeabassDebeste posted... hmm, you may have a point, but it only applies to games where the goal is to eliminate every other player, and you only get one action per turn I guess if your point is it's impossible to create a whammy turn to eliminate every opponent at once to win, yeah I guess that matters. You could maybe fix that with certain role cards too. But you have the dynamic of king slaying in a lot of games. I think it's really only a flaw if the games are really long and it's likely one person is going to be sitting a long time in the typical play pattern of a game. Otherwise it's just something you accept and play around. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

| Lopen 02/23/18 2:14:36 PM #493 | Yeah Grima would be an auto draw for if that art weren't so bad. Especially since I'm not sure when I'll be able to make a dragon emblem team without him. I like Adult Tiki and to a lesser extent Ninian (almost entirely because the art and VA are great in this game-- wasn't exactly fond in FE7), and Myrrh is fine, but the rest of them are awful. It's probably the worst art in the game and that includes Lloyd. (not even sure why Florina is being mentioned on that bottom tier btw) --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

| Lopen 02/23/18 1:47:44 PM #319 | Any multiplayer free for all game with any sort of diplomatic element and a victory condition where only one person can win is going to have that "glitch." I've yet to play any game where that wasn't the case unless the game was heavily RNG based or there wasn't a mechanic to screw other players directly in the rules. I don't think you can or even should remove that aspect without fundamentally changing what the game is. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

Only improvement to make would be swapping that Riku LMR (which isn't going to be useful with no Riku relics) for a Sora or Cloud LMR.

Like yeah you won't absorb ALL THE STARS like you will with others but you'll get a non 0 amount of them pretty reliably which will help damage. Berserkers also typically have issues with NP Gen so starting at 50 is better for them. That being said I do think a Caster you want to crit a lot is where it shines. --- No problem!

| Lopen 02/22/18 2:55:40 PM #62 | Well, the big issue here is I think you're using a different definition of artificial difficulty than one I'd associate with filler-- and that was probably my fault for saying 'artificially increasing the difficulty' when that isn't really an accurate way to say what I was getting at. But either way it has everything to do with what you're saying because you're saying "losing progress after a game over = filler" when I would say it's generally not unless the stuff you're repeating is truly 100% trivial, which I would not say is the case in Adventures of Link. The game generally gives you shortcuts through the trivial stuff and the meat of your penalty is assessed on losing progress in the dungeon you died in, which is completely fine since the game wants you to be able to consistently do everything in the dungeon rather than being able to fluke through each individual room piecemeal. Being able to withstand attrition of many lesser challenges isn't a lesser type of difficulty than being able to withstand something with a super hard execution level. It's just a different kind. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

Kiss Your Hand seems like it'd generally be outclassed by the single type +25%s, and Versus is too situational I think. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

| Lopen 02/22/18 1:41:11 PM #57 | It's not really the same thing though. Like bumbling around on the Lon Lon Farm or Kokiri Village or running across vast open plains or with nothing of interest or whatever else are not segments of the game I find interesting in any play through, and they're unavoidable. Game Over penalty is mostly used as a tool to make you successfully do longer stretches of the game in one go through. And what's more they're completely avoidable with more skill. Game Overs aren't really filler on the content level as much as artificially increasing the difficulty level. But in some ways that kind of difficulty can be more satisfying. I'd rather play a game like Ninja Gaiden where you have to do a long stretch without a lot of blunders than say I Wanna Be The Guy where you have to do super hard segments in very very bite sized pieces. I mean by your logic, even ignoring the issue of checkpoints, having a hard boss that takes you like 50 tries would be "filler" because you spend 49 tries on the same content, artificially increasing the length of the game. --- No problem!

| Lopen 02/22/18 1:01:37 PM #52 | tazzyboyishere posted... AoL has a lives system that sends you back to the starting screen and forces you to go back through parts of the game you've already beaten. That's, like, the purest form of filler. Well, I'm not one of those people who thinks we should have checkpoints on every screen so you don't need to replay anything. I think failure having a price is a good thing, and if you play the game without getting Game Over there's no filler, which is more important. That being said I will admit Adventure of Link's enforcement of it is a lot more dumb than other games of the time like say Ninja Gaiden which makes you redo a hard stretch of the game when you fail to beat the boss-- since the strong majority of the stuff you're going through to get back to the final dungeon is just a waste of time. On the other hand it doesn't really take long at all either because there are a lot of shortcuts to use so it kinda acknowledges this. Overall it's only really a problem with the final dungeon since most of the other things have more direct routes, but even then it takes just a few minutes --- No problem!

I do have Lancina which is a pretty similar idea but on the other hand she's an infantry and I'd rather avoid putting it on infantry since that's my most used unit type-- I feel like it would be a burden to build teams with an Infantry unit with Atk Tactic. I also kinda think a flier is best because you can more freely move them and they can have guidance. Hinoka is a probably the objectively best choice for it of fliers I have but it feels like a waste of her Hone Fliers and Hinoka as a character isn't one I'm going to be using a ton either. --- No problem!

Might actually be the better draw overall. Atk Tactic seems pretty awesome. I'm thinking I want to put it on Valter since I'm usually running him with mixed compositions anyway.
