The only real value of having a Levin Sword on a unit with spell access is to break axe enemies while still using your magic stat. I prefer to have it on non-spell users that still have decent magic like Chloe or Merrin. That way they can punch holes in armors and whatnot.

It can also be used to extend the range of a sword locked backup unit. I had it on Alear while I had Lucina equipped on him.

She needs to be in a class that uses swords. Like Sword Griffin or Sword Wyvern.

It's Fire Emblem so if you're a parent to a main character you're never gonna live more than 6 chapters following your appearance.

The only exception I know of to this rule is Eliwood surviving all of Binding Blade despite being Roy's father, but that's probably because his plot armor from being the protagonist of his own prequel game acted as a shield.

Thing is he was incapacitated the entire game and the plot armor thing is only after the fact as Roy was FE6 and he was FE7.

You're right that the plot armor thing doesn't actually matter due to the release order of the two Elibe games. But incapacitated during the story or not, Eliwood was still alive and still able to rule as the new leader of the Lycian League once the story was over. So he's the exception to the rule.

Yeah, that's fair. Oh wait, one other parent lives to the end. Mad King Ashnard is the father of Soren. So that's one more main character parent who survives until the end of the game. Sorta. >.>

I finally finished the last chapter of the game, and with it, my first full playthrough. Gameplay-wise, the final chapter was great, with the final battle having two stages, some tough enemies, and a really cool battle mechanic in the second stage including a surprise that I won't spoil. Story-wise, the final chapter was cheesy as hell, with the conversations feeling like they were straight out of a sunday morning hero show like Kamen Rider or Pretty Cure. But the whole game was consistent with that kind of tone throughout (and I'm not adverse to that level of hero cheese) so I'm fine with that. Despite the mediocre and sometimes even cheesy story, the gameplay was amazing and I would call this my favorite Fire Emblem game since the Tellius games.

I'm definitely going to do a second playthrough on Hard/Casual at some point. Female characters only, trying to use some of the girls that I didn't use during my first playthrough, and using the extra knowledge that I didn't have the first time around. I'm still not sure if I'll buy the DLC to use in this one though.

The game is super cheesy but you should have known that from how Alear looks,the opening theme song , the cheesy phases like "Shine on, Emblem of beginnings!" and all that saturday morning kid's show stuff. That being said, I really hate the gacha like mechanic because it's so obvious they're using it as a gateway into the Fire Emblem Heroes mobile game and because I wasted all my bond energy and only got a bunch of shit rings that don't do much for any of my army right now I'm replying and just getting into chapter 5 and already I'd forgotten annoying it is to make absolutely sure when I move that none of my guys are on the path of someone with has a weapon strong against them and especially how Framme, Clanne, bow girl and Ronex all die to anything even slightly stronger than they are. Meanwhile my yuri loving guy Louis is so tough I can send him by himself to plug a hallway and things just run into him to die.

I wonder if I should save scum the gacha in a bid to get a gold ring to slap on one of them to make the earlier chapters quicker to go through

You technically can't save scum bond ring pulls because resetting the game doesn't change the random numbers used to generate the rings. You have to do a different action that wastes the game's generated random numbers, like doing an arena battle, to change what bond rings you pull.

One additional tip to keep in mind is that which bond rings you pull for any given 10 pull will match up exactly no matter which Emblem's pool of rings you pull from. Here are all of the bond ring pools: https://serenesforest.net/engage/weapons-items/bond-rings/

For example, if you do a 10-pull from Micaiah's pool and you get an A-rank of Sothe (the 1st character in her pool) and an S-rank of Sanaki (the 6th character in her pool), then you reset your game and do a 10-pull from Leif's pool without using up any random numbers, you'll get an A-rank of Nanna (the 1st character in his pool) and an S-rank of Olwen (the 6th character in his pool) because those are what random numbers are lined up for you at that moment. With this in mind, what you want to do to get a really good bond ring is this:

1) Save your game, then do a bond ring 10-pull. Maybe do a couple if you want to make things easier.
2) If you don't get any S-rank rings, then reset your game, do an arena battle to waste some random numbers, save again, then do the 10-pull(s) again.
3) Repeat the above until you get an S-rank ring.
4) If you want an S-rank ring that gives a skill but get one that doesn't give a skill, look in the list of bond rings that I posted above and see if the ring you got is in the same numbered slot as a bond ring for a different emblem that does give a skill. If it is, then reset and do the same 10-pull(s) for that other emblem without wasting any random numbers and you should get the desired bond ring.

I don't know if there's a way to actually manipulate the random numbers to give you the ones you want, but this method at least lets you waste random numbers and look for S-rank rings because just resetting the game by itself doesn't work.

Don't forget to claim your bond fragments for those achievements at the bulletin board if you haven't been doing so already. I didn't figure out that was a thing until like chapter 14, and there were a ton of them waiting for me when I did.

I check often lol that's why I'm able to say I have nearly 500. Most of the remaining ones are buy x weapons of each type or wake up to y rank unit z times.

The last good one I still need is to finish maxing the last region's donations. 20k/50k. Been using most of my money on second seals or forging. -_-

When I first explored the base, I explored everything, including the board And now I go all the time. Multiple times while at the base Especially since I can gain achievements while there

Entering and exiting a Chapter or Paralogue (not skirmishes) completely rerolls the RNs.

So enter and then exit the chapter.
Save.
Go to the Ring room. Pull 10 Rings, taking note of what ranks and where and on who.
If you go an S rank on a desired pool slot, exit, reload and then pull rings with the desired character until you get that S Ring.
If you don't get an S in the pool slot you want, reload. And repeat the process again.

Well yeah, lmfao. And it isn't like Fates Maddening mode where there's an internal counter for maps played that progressively increases enemy stats over time.

Skills like the various Corrin emblem dragon vein effects, fire from effects like flame shot cannons or the special attack from Roy emblem, and I think the obstruction staff might clear them though it's only a single empty space so that doesn't really help in the worst miasma maps.

Gonna be honest here, the title of the game put me off. Fire Emblem: Engage makes it sound like some new fighting game or possible a fire emblem game set in a sci fi area. Maybe even a phone game that was ported to consoles. It wasn't until yesterday I realized it's an actual regular Fire Emblem game.

I never played birthright but revelations is basically "what if they listened after no more than 2 attempts to talk" and has some of the best maps but others are so damn long it's annoying.

I bet it's because of the distance between Alear and the 4 first people you meet, Vander, Clanne and Framme barely get screen time after the first 3 chapters, then in chapter three you get Alfred and his two retainers muscle bow girl and ax man with a head too small for his body neither of the two have anything to say in the story scenes, why they aren't even in the shot, then chapter 4 introduces you to 3 more characters and again only 1 of them matters and appears in the following cutscene, then chapter 5 and it just keeps going. I think it's legit because Engage has too many characters and not enough time to let them cook

Yeah. They do seem to have way too many. And I guess since they could die at any time, they didnt want to have too many people retreating instead of dying

Skirmishes are too hard. If you do them with your main team, they are overleveled for the main story. If you do them with your benched units, you will get dumpstered. Heaven forbid you play these on classic too (training missions don't kill your units though afaik)
