I haven't recruited anyone but the instructors. I kinda like my OG team >_>

I'm basically recruiting people to fill out the weak points in my team's structure. I got Lys because she's a better mage than Annette, i'm getting Leonie because she'll make an excellent sniper, and I'll recruit Petra for an assassin. Other than that, I have no plans to recruit anyone other than teachers. Catherine reminds me too much of Sully, but I want Shamir.

Edit: I made Ingrid into a pegasus knight, and she's pretty beasting right now. She's my mage killer, which is good for chapter 5's mission.

Part 2 is rough. Ignat is a shit and I'm glad I killed him

NeonOctopus posted...

I literally have a 3-way tie between fucking Dorothea, Bernadetta, and Petra. idk who to choose

There's also Shamir and Catherine and Manuela and Rhea. FUCK, there's too many waifus! I wish you could just bang them all in one playthrough like Persona

Your taste will forever be bad since you called Lysithea eh and Marianne garbage tbh

Marianne is garbage. Her portrait makes her look like a heroin addict and all she does is play with horse shit all day

I'll take a nice, quiet girl who has a thing for nature over Manuela's thirst any day of the week.

Manuela is amazing. Shut your mouth

Bernadetta is a precious flower that I want to protect...with my dick

Bernadetta is also ugly and has an even worse personality

What the fuck did you just say

will there be a lot of dlc for that game or am I good to buy it now?

Downloadable content will include:
Wave 1: Officers Academy outfits for female and male Byleth available at game launch.
Wave 2: Additional Auxiliary battle maps, helpful in-game support items, and more will be released by Oct. 31.
Wave 3: Additional quests and costumes, plus a free update, will be released by Dec. 31.
Wave 4: New story content, with additional playable characters, locations and more, plus a free update, will be released by April 30, 2020.

Which is why 98% of the games I buy are never on day one

Nah, she's a slob. If she worked on that, she'd be great given her looks.

i really think bernadetta has an interesting personality but i like petra from a story perspective and from how powerful she is in the game

What's your point here? Nintendo never releases "GotY" editions, and their games never drop in price. Buy it now or buy it once all the content's out, you'll be paying the same if you want access to all of it.

it's a remarkable step up from fates, at least writing-wise

the actual attempts at world building are the most obvious example

The setting of Fates doesn't even have a name. Or a map.

Then Awakening characters appear in it so it has to be from Kaga-verse 1 through 5.

i haven't had a huge variety of different classes this first playthrough. i just unlocked a couple of the master classes and holy shit at how badass mortal savant is. definitely the most powerful normal class i have unlocked as of yet

Not really. The outrealms, alternate realities, alternate futures and all that garbage makes things complicated. The writing in 3 houses so far seems ON point. Awakening had the excuse of introducing portals to alternate dimensions to justify the fanservicy DLC. Fates has no such excuse and they were introduced to make up for it's bad writing.

Ain't nothing wrong with getting drunk, having a gaggle a knights run a train on you in your smelly NEET room, and then passing out drunk and naked on the floor of your infirmary where all the students will find you the next morning

I messed up my scheduling for the next month by focusing on filling everybody's motivation before the chapter 5 Mission. Now that I'm in the next month, there are two Sundays before we even get to the first instruction day. There's also no fishing events for the month, and I'm finally all stocked up on bait. This sucks. So, looks like I'm using mealtime this time to raise some support with non house members.

It's pretty awesome

I've only lost 2 units so far (both resets). Once when I had to protect someone and an Assassin came out of the Fog that I didn't see and killed them. And just recently I put my Dancer in a bad spot and she got hit by two units

Why settle for the monastery's pump and dump middle aged woman when you can have young, intelligent women?

You should always just spend all your bait. It's not very expensive, it takes no time from your resources and it provides a decent chunk of exp at lower levels.

Just finished BE route. Took me almost 60 hours. Im probably going to start BL tomorrow.

I just want to say that final map was a close call. The RNG gods blessed me because I needed a crit for that last hit against the boss. Otherwise, several of my characters would have died next turn.

This is the best game Ive played all year.
---

I can't wait to start this game again with all of the knowlage I've gained

---

Should I focus on getting Petra to learn bows to become an assassin, or just swords to be the swordmaster?

I made Petra a thief/assassin

Da booty of Brigid should always be an ass ass in

I think people have more success with swordmaster, but locktouch is pretty good too have on one unit

I made her a wyvern knight though, any "kill Commander" map I can end at any time with her flying straight there with a killer axe

One thing I am unsure of is, will she still have the access to lockpick when I change her class, or is it available only on thief?

It's also available for assassins, but doesn't carry over when you change classes

Yeah okay, for some reason when I looked at assassin class one place it didn't show those skills so I thought they were lost *shrugs*

I finally had a battle where I had to reset a whole turn in the paralogue with Aloise and Sylvain. Damn wyvern riders do work and are tough to escape from.

I'll probably just go for Dorothea. She's a classy slut while Manuela is just a slut >_>

so wyvern lord is a super op class. honestly all the master classes i have so far are really strong, warmaster is really good too

War Master is what I'm rocking on Byleth. He also has A+ in fists too

I plan for Byleth to be a Mortal Savant.
A weeb-mage who studied the blade.

Oh, do these weapons carry over into NG+?

hell yeah. i have a couple of those rare weapons that have to be forged but can only do it with professor level a+ and i just now got to level a

The only thing that carries over to NG+ is your renown points to buy shit and any statue perks that you've unlocked. The only problem is that everything is expensive as shit!

You can spend renown to get:

Professor Level (4500 needed to get rank A+)
Supports you already got (400 PER support level PER character)
Classes you passed (500 per class per character)
Skill levels (4500 for S+ per skill per character)
Crests (1000 per Crest you don't have)

So you're better off just dumping renown into statues to max them out before saving up for new game plus shenanigans. Any renown you spend on New Game Plus is gone in your next playthrough and you have to rebuy it

Also the shops have the endgame items to buy

I thought that's only due to professor level. Is that the case if you stay at professor level E at the start?

thanks that is useful to know. i am leaving work and going to continue playing now. the story is really coming to a head and getting crucial now where i am

So I should spend all my renown on the statues regardless?

Also, what is a rare monster, and how did it drop that item?

Have you done the mission where you have to fight Mikhail?

If not, you'll learn through that.

I'm on chapter 10 or something. Killed two monsters so far. But what makes one a rare monster?
