Fire Emblem: The Discussion Thread (keep FE Fates story under spoilertags)

[Reizilla]

I found Morgan (F) x Gerome to be quite cyute.

 

[Raziek]

Ditto on Morgan (F) / Gerome. Their S is amazing, he takes off his mask. :O

 

[~Firefly~]

SPOILER

But for someone like me who's read their A support, it's not really a surprise.

I have every A support unlocked for every child pair, and almost all the S-supports are ready to go; I'm just waiting for the really difficult DLC stuff to come out to test out which pairings will help me the most. I plan on going through and unlocking all of the child S-supports regardless.

As for best supports, I can't remember because most of my support unlocking was done a while ago. =[

 

[Reizilla]

Yen Fay's paralogue on lunatic... How is this supposed to be possible? I swear all or your units need to have galeforce and brave weapons just to kill enough enemies for him to not get himself killed on the first turn.

And as I was typing this, I remembered you can use Rescue on NPCs...

 

[Sunnysunny]

Frederick and Chrom.

I'm still waiting for nintendo to make a "Troop moral" poster with Chrom in a "bold pose."

 

[Raziek]

Oh god, that conversation was so hilariously amazing.

 

[Delta-cod]

I also found Olivia and Chrom's C support to be pretty damn amazing.

I have never felt so much awkward through text before.

 

[Reizilla]

How do you get Chrom to marry Olivia? I thought you could only support from the world map.

 

[telemaster]

dance for him like crazy in the chapter you get olivia. dont support chrom with any potential mates up to that point.

 

[Delta-cod]

Chrom will marry the available mate he has the highest relationship with.

My first playthrough, I ended up marrying off all his other mates except Olivia, so I literally had to have Olivia dance for him once to get them to marry.

Otherwise, just don't have Chrom support with the other females and have them fight together/have her dance with him a lot.

 

[~Firefly~]

Or you could be like me and get him to marry Maiden the first time.

I'm still mad about that.

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

I am upset about the marriage supports. Many of them are so weird.
Lissa and Gaius. "You helped me with my sewing and various household chores, lets get married :D"

And many more are sort of similar. Characters get to know each other though like one event, then they get married. What?

 

[Sunnysunny]

Panne: I like to eat carrots.
MU: I just cooked some carrots.

-Instant love interest-

 

[Delta-cod]

I mean, you're going off of like, 3 support conversations. Obviously things are gonna seem rushed...

While I agree that some of the pairings/supports are kinda "meh", I'd like to imagine that there are other interactions between the characters that are implied. Not to mention that in order to even get supports done, these units have to fight with each other on a bloody battlefield.

Sounds like some bonding time to me.

 

[~Firefly~]

There's nothing quite like cutting people up when it comes to bringing people together. =D

 

[Rutger]

Henry x Miriel deciding to get married so they can experiment with creating life is the best.

Magical Science >>>> all other reasons.

 

[Delta-cod]

So on a recent hard mode run, I done ****ed up and was about to have Maribelle get killed in the chapter you get her. All the resets were ready to happen.

But by some miracle of the RNG Goddess, Ricken BLOCKED the killing blow with his what, 2-4% chance to do so?

Ricken for favorite unit of all time. Clutch as ****.

 

[Reizilla]

Nah x Morgan is really good. I liked Tharja x Lonqu as well. Severa's convos all seemed meh, though I've never gotten past A with anyone for her.

 

[Mono.]

So I'm in the process of making FeMorgan a goddess of destruction.

My avatar's asset is Magic and flaw is Defense in this playthough and I'm going to have him knock up Aversa. I chose her due to shadowgift and broken dark magic.

Aversa!Morgan as a sage magic caps at 54.
Limit Breaker skill will bring it to 64.
I'll have an einherjar be a Rally Unit with Rally Magic, Spectrum, and Heart which will bring it to 74.
Pairing Morgan up with a sage of sorts, I'm thinking Laurent at S rank, will bring her magic to 83.
Tomefaire skill will bring it to 87.
If I'm using Valflame, that's 92.
Using a magic tonic on that turn will get her 94.
Olivia special dancing will get her to 96.
And having Tiki's Tear will put her magic at 98.
If I find a way to manipulate barracks bonuses and get them as I desire, I can put her up to 102.
And with all of this, except Morgan being Ricken!Noire!Morgan, it would probably be at about 104 instead of 102.

I'm pretty sure with Mire and Magic at least 93, I can kill anything on the map.

edit: skills will be Tomefaire, Limit Breaker, Galeforce, Astra or Ignis, and Shadowgift.

 

[~Firefly~]

That sounds hilarious. Good luck.

 

[jamlosingthegame]

If you feel like devastating with power, switch your last two skills with Mag +2 and All Stats +2. +14 Mag can't hurt right?

I thought of this some time ago. +Def/-(whatever) Avatar (F) marries Walhart. Make Morgan (M) have Walhart's NPC skill set (Conquest, Pavise, Aegis), Limit Breaker, and HP +5 or Res +10. Make Morgan a General and have him hold Helswrath for a +5 in Def. Or a Great Knight and give Ragnell (+5 Def) and maybe Gradivus to cover all weapons.

I'm actually thinking of some skill sets that would be useful for Ultimate Training.

Oh and I think S supports just add more to the support bonus for Dual Strikes and Blocks, nothing to stats. I checked with an A and S support between two units and the bonus was the same.

 

[Mono.]

They do add stats when you pair up.

 

[Rutger]

R&R 3 is out, so time to get Limit Break.

So is the first chapter/pack for series two, this will be the three Pegasus knights.

Looking at it on SF, Est's map has something that reduces HP to 1, best map for Vengeance? :3


FE6 spotpass and paralogue 22 are also out.

 

[Astraea31]

Limit Break!!!!11

And I just finished maxing out 6 of my children last weekend

 

[Senliten]

This limit break mang THIS LIMIT BREAK!!
Making broken unit and friends more broken ........... i love it XD

 

[Astraea31]

This limit break mang THIS LIMIT BREAK!!
Making broken unit and friends more broken ........... i love it XD

and making my trickster anna semi useful LOL

 

[Gingerbread Man]

The new paralogue is my favorite.

Try bringing in only one or two units and it becomes hilariously devastating.

 

[Reizilla]

I don't have money for limit break :/ not like it matters because I've been taking my game to school for a month and haven't run into a single person on streeetpass yet.

 

[Mono.]

I brought only Private Marth to the new paralogue.

VERSUS

TEAM: MARTH

 

[Raziek]

Guys, the Death's Embrace DLC is freaking nuts. I have no idea how to even approach it. You can't ***** Sol because all the enemies get reduced to 1 HP.

 

[Reizilla]

I don't know what it looks like, but spam Mire with +skill skills and run away?

 

[Raziek]

The condition is to defeat the boss, 6 enemies spawn per turn, and there's a turn limit of 10 turns to achieve the "best result", whatever the heck that means.

 

[Reizilla]

Ooooh, that's crazy.

 

[Alacion]

I certainly didn't beat it in 10 turns but at least I managed to kill the boss within 10 turns >_>

Oh yeah, I'm on Hard maybe that's why... The enemies did stop spawning after a while... did that come with the boss' death?

 

[jamlosingthegame]

They do add stats when you pair up.

I meant that the added stats are still the same between A and S supports.

Have you tried Bonds, Galeforce, Lifetaker, Renewal among your units as well as healers with Fortify staffs for Death's Embrace. I've set myself up for this but haven't the time to play it.

 

[Alacion]

Yeah that's how I beat the stage. I only used 7 characters and I totally abused Renewal, Fortify, and most of all, Mire.

 

[Raziek]

Barely any of my units know Renewal or Lifetaker. ._.

 

[Mono.]

I meant that the added stats are still the same between A and S supports.

Ah, I see. Well I chose Laurent for S support because of what I said, the Sage thing, but also his mother has access to Dual Support+ to pass down to Laurent. Maribelle has it too, but I rather her pass down Galeforce to Brady than that.

Also I haven't played or came up with a plan for Death's Embrace just yet. That is the one where the floor will spike up and 1HP everyone, right?

I'm thinking about getting crazy aggressive with it, run in there with Vantage, pick a God, and pray.

 

[Alacion]

Hm without those healing skills, you should try using a healer and a sorcerer with Aversa's Night and Mire. Mire really works well because the hazards affect enemies too. I killed the boss as soon as possible, then cleared all the Risen near me with Mire. To kill the boss, I had Severa/Cordelia and my character/Chrom go near the middle of the stage (the ground that restores your health). Then, Severa with Galeforce would kill a nearby enemy while returning to the healing tiles at the end of her move. She needs to be there to heal since Mire hits the boss starting at one tile (spiked tile) below the healing tiles. I got really lucky and got a critical hit on a Mire against the boss Morgan/Lucina was there to Mire enemies or Aversa's them if they came too close and Brady was a backup healer/attacker... didn't need him much in the end. Once I cleared all the Risen on the spiked areas (that I could reach with Mire), I went on the edge of the map where it was really easy since there are no hazards on the edges of the map. Does this even make sense? Haha.

My character was a Sorcerer paired up with Chrom.
Severa was paired up with Cordelia and Severa was a Bride. (Attacking and Fortify)
Morgan was paired up with Lucina and Morgan is also a sorcerer.
Brady was my last unit who was just there to Fortify.
