DodogamaRayBrst 09/13/25 4:21:18 PM #3:	I'd suggest to restart the game and set it to hard mode if you haven't already. Not because I think you should have a hard experience, but because I think the difficulty modes are misnamed. Rather than normal and hard it should have been easy and normal. Hard isn't hard, but unlike normal, it requires you to use strategy, which I feel is very important for one's enjoyment of a strategy game. Unless you're there just for the anime waifus, of course. Plus, if you don't enjoy it, the game allows you to lower the difficulty mid game, but not raise it. <cite>DodogamaRayBrst posted [p:986401482] in Started Fi...

Compsognathus 09/13/25 4:35:37 PM #7:	If you have any familiarity with FE at all, I would strongly recommend hard mode. 3H Normal is stupidly easy and between that and it's less than inspired map design, it will probably have you pretty bored. That said, Hard Mode is still not all that hard so you'll still have a lot of flexibility for character builds and you aren't at any real risk of fucking up your runs. There aren't any particular tips to give. Like I could run you through a bunch of meta-builds and pathings and shit but it's wildly unnecessary on non-Maddening difficulty. Most characters and their profiencies give you a good idea of what they will work in. I will say most physical characters appreciate going through Brigand for its Mastery Skill same with magic characters and Mage. Never put off promoting, your character's levels are independent of class so it isn't like other FEs where a character's potential can be dampened by promoting too early. Oh and I would advise against Iron Manning. Like a few character deaths won't be the end of the world but this game is not built like old FEs where you get a lot of characters that can serve as replacements. --- 1 line break(s), 160 characters allowed <cite>Compsognathus posted [p:986401668] in Started Fi...

Srk700 09/13/25 5:05:43 PM #8:	Yeah, you dont get characters from progressing through the story aside from a select few (and even then, some might not join depending on what route youre on). To get more characters beyond the ones you get from your starting house, you have to recruit them from other houses and from the church grounds staff. Other house students (except for Edelgard, Dimitri, Claude, Hubert, and Dedue, who cant be recruited. Hilda also cant be recruited on the BE path unless you make a certain story choice) can be recruited at any time from when recruiting becomes possible, but in order to do so you have to a minimum ranking in a certain skill and a minimum in a certain stat (which both requirements can be lowered by getting their support ranks up) to recruit them outright. Or theres the alternative where you can get their B support, after which theres a chance each week they might randomly pop into your class asking if they can join (that said, 2 students cant be recruited this way since their B support doesnt happen until very deep into the game, though both are BE students). And theres a certain student that can be recruited just from having a female Byleth without needing to reach any stat/skill requirements. Church staff are a bit different in their recruitment. IIRC you dont need a minimum stat/skill level to reach for them. Instead they require your Byleth to be a certain level before they can be recruited (though that requirement can also be lowered from raising their support level). Theyre also typically unrecruitable until a certain chapter (the 1st being recruitable starting in Chapter 4 IIRC). And lastly theres a few that do join automatically at certain parts of the story, but only on certain routes. <cite>Srk700 posted [p:986401987] in Started Fi...

M1Astray 09/16/25 8:28:30 PM #13:	My gameplay advice is to not get too bogged down with the weekly stuff, it can get very tedious and pace-ruining (but can be interesting during some of the more major plot developments). If you get to a point where you just want to progress the main story and do some paralogues on the side you can automate that stuff, it won't massively affect your units gains if you're not running around the monastery every week so long as you're paying attention to what stats your students should be learning in their lessons for the classes you want to promote them to (and you'll get more than enough chances to raise support levels during main chapter maps and paralogues as well). Oh and keep two saves after every chapter. You'll want to do that for this game as a habit, at least until later on. And when you're done with Black Eagles I'd also suggest reading up on what happens in the other two routes. The routes themselves don't differ enough in terms of gameplay to merit playing each of them (unless you absolutely love the gameplay ofc then play em instead), but each of them illuminates some rather important world and plot information that either isn't emphasized or is outright not brought up in the others. --- Currently Playing: Xenoblade X Definitive Edition (Switch), Fate/stay night Remastered (Switch), Arknights (Android) <cite>M1Astray posted [p:986437333] in Started Fi...

Sylvain: Very easy to recruit as female Byleth and is a good early game unit (which BE can have issues with). Significantly less useful as male Byleth since you have to go through normal recruitment methods. Ingrid: Shares a paralogue with Dorothea and has the better reward tied to it. If you do decide to recruit her, wait until chapter 6 or so when gets recruited as a Pegasus Knight. Mercedes: Pretty much just for story reasons, since she has ties to a BE character. IIRC she also has an act 2 paralogue with Caspar I think (~~but that might only be on SS~~). Leonie: Shares a late game paralogue with Lindhardt than can only be done if you have both. The paralogue is one of the more frustrating ones, (~~especially on the CF route~~), and the reward is only ok, so dont feel the need to recruit her just for that (though she is good unit). Shamir: Very powerful when she 1st becomes available to recruit since she comes as an advanced class while everyone is still in an intermediate one. Manuela or Hanneman: 2 of the weakest units in the game, but their paralogue has a very good item in the chest on the map so its worth recruiting 1 just for that. Those are the main ones that stick out from what I remember. <cite>Srk700 posted [p:986446807] in Started Fi...

Shamir: Very powerful when she 1st becomes available to recruit since she comes as an advanced class while everyone is still in an intermediate one. This depends on if TC intends to recruit everyone but there are some special things that can happen if Shamir and Alois (and Annette) aren't recruited on Edelgard's route and only if they're not recruited on Edelgard's route. Raphael/Hanneman/Manuela only on Dimitri's route. It's rather silly but it is something interesting to note for if someone wants to ~~kill all units~~ at least once when doing every route. --- </topic> <cite>GiftedACIII posted [p:986459091] in Started Fi...

As mentioned, you can set one of her goals to flying as well. Also when you get the intermediate classes, focus on having her master Brigand for Death Blow and then have her be a Pegasus Knight until shes able to become a Wyvern Rider so she can get some extra flying XP from that too (on Maddening its recommended to master Archer for Hit +20 as well, but that might not be necessary on the other difficulties). <cite>Srk700 posted [p:986483067] in Started Fi...

DodogamaRayBrst 09/21/25 2:44:05 AM #38:	For story reasons I'd say recruiting other students is undesirable. Faculty less so. If you're done with the story and just doing it for gameplay, it's fine. But I still think it's more fun to recruit specifically instead of just taking every student you can get your grubby hands on. Though, even in regards to gameplay, a full in-house playthrough can be a way to "challenge" yourself on how to best make use of a set of units where you might not feel good about some of them. <cite>DodogamaRayBrst posted [p:986484438] in Started Fi...
