Ivy is one of my best units. A total speed merchant with alacrity. Same with Merrin. Also thanks gpg for the tip on Panette -> wyvern rider!

No worries. I'm slowly getting my auxiliary members up in levels now and she's next after Anna.

Not random, just a bit surprising since we have two Tellius reps already
Let's assume that the JP only games were never getting additonal reps because they want the DLC to be more globally available. If the DLC is correct, FE7 will have two reps, FE8 will have 1 rep, FE9/10 would have 2 without Soren, Awakening would have 2 reps, Fates would have 2 reps, SoV would have 1 rep, and 3H would have 2 reps. So really the games most due would be FE8, SoV and Tellius (averages to 1 rep per game). Frankly FE8 doesn't really have notable characters outside of the Twins. I'm also assuming they wanted a reasonable balance between magic and physical Emblems (sorry Alm, who in my opinion is getting the rawest deal here), so that really leaves Tellius. I personally think Elincia is the more important choice, but Soren is probably the most popular magic character in Tellius. And probably the most popular magic character between FE8, SoV, and Tellius. And 3 characters between two games is still below average.

I believe Soren was chosen over Elincia because otherwise all magic oriented emblems would be female.

Swordmaster is bad. She'd just be underperforming harder.

There is nothing wrong with having two Heroes if you want to use both. Just because she isn't as good as Lapis doesn't mean she won't contribute.

I mean, Elincia is a healer first. The bonuses she'd give as an Emblem would almost certainly reflect that (probably Magic, Speed, and Resistance).

NO DANCER since the Dancer in this game is male.

I feel like if that was their plan they would have had a magic emblem in phase one.

But really, I feel like only Anna is truly harmed my the difficulty of getting tome profiency in mid game and even that is like a first run problem.

Like who else really is wanting for magic reclasses?

If there's a magical flyer as dlc class then Chloe is 100% getting reclassed.

Either works. Chain guard obviously is a strong defensive ability. High Priest tome access can be nice to give her a bit more of an offensive presence if her strength never came together. And having a mystical unit can help free up other mages to go into Mage Knight while not leaving you completely frustrated by forest Theives.

Honestly, the grindiness of a lot of the elements in the game means I probably won't play it again without an NG+ mode. TH NG+ is my favourite NG+ mode of all time and though it would certainly require modifications, I would love to see it implemented here.

I'm not worried since I honestly haven't used Seadall at all since the chapter after the one he was introduced. I'd rather just have the extra body over a dancer, especially with the limited amount of deployment slots this game gives you most of the time.

The way I see it, if I can only deploy 10 units, I'd rather deploy my best unit twice instead of my 10th best unit.

That's one way to look at it, ut it does come with the drawback of having to protect him and him basically doing nothing offensively or during the enemy's turn. I might try using him in a future playthrough if I do another one beyond my second girls-only run, but it's too late for him in my current run.

He comes with a +5 defense weapon and he's easy to defend if you don't scatter everyone to the wind

Speech impediment, basically. He emphasizes words at times but it often means nothing at all. Just a tick or something.

Dancers are the single most strategically significant units in the game. On a basic level they are effectively a copy of your best combat unit, or your healer, or support. But beyond that they open up strategies that literally aren't possible without them. And they do all this while increasing experience gain on your team as they have their own experience pool entirely to themselves.

Its true they don't have an enemy phase but they can allow your good enemy phasing units to take an action and then move to an even better enemy phasing spot.

The best advise for using dancers is to plan out what you want to do with them before you move anyone else as opposed to moving them last just to dance on someone. It shifts how you look at things strategically and has the added benefit of typically protecting your dancer better.

Not that Seadall is particularly frail. Shielding arts and a Def+2 Bond Ring has him at 18 defense. Which is enough to allow for either some small mistakes or even aggressive dancing.

It's weird because the English VA like doesn't. At most you get like a pause or something.

You have some many people who start out as a lancer at the time you get Misutira, it's really unfortunate, she's very hard to fit into it. She was really the "this is the character I want to use" before I got the game, but I ended up using her maybe twice after her introduction chapter.

Welp, the plot sure kicked into overdrive after chapter 21. Didn't expect Alear to actually die, that's for sure.

Blue_Inigo posted...
Please tell me Timerra and Fogado are good

I'm using Timerra because she's best girl (or at least a strong candidate for one) but being locked to only lances in her unique class is tough. Plus, her growths seem to make her fast and bulky, but only decent on offense, which is an awkward combination to work with. I ended up giving her Lyn's ring to double down on the speed, but you could give her a different ring to try and cover up her strength issue, and that's what I'll probably do for her in my second run now that I have more info.

You can get a lot from the trial tower but yeah, you can reset and not even change class. You can't get lower than level 21 for the classes that go to 40 though so you only get 19 level ups per. But it's so nice seeing Jean with max hp, build, attack, dex, speed, res, and nearly capped luck.

Fogado is pretty solid, he has a decent magic stat which is all it takes to use the Radiant Bow (the might on that weapon is so high it doesn't need high magic to hit hard) and doubles everything forever. I wound up keeping Erika on him forever, the magic boost she gives helps with Radiant Bow damage and Lunar Brace's partial defense ignoring on a unit that doubles but needs more damage is a good combo, plus cavalry makes her Engage attack stronger. I used Timerra a lot and got good results but that's probably mostly Ike being nuts, her speed and defense are pretty good but her strength is shaky and her build is bad enough that the speed gets a lot less impressive if she uses anything she can do good damage with. She's easy enough to get some use out of but probably not one of the better units in the game or anything.
