So i got Inigo. And since i'm doing my haram run, i thought why not pair him with all the ladies too. Boy was i in for a treat with all his supports!

I don't know what is better.. NoirexInigo or NahxInigo


Though my first question is why any of the girls bother to stay with him, its entertaining with Noire going all yandere on him.. and shooting arrows at all the hyenas (ladies) that he goes near and Nah's threat to eat him.


Well i have finished my harem run, except Lucina cause i will dedicate a run to her and Sully cause i married her off for Kjelle before realizing i didn't do her yet. Now for my reverse harem run...

Hmm LucinaxInigo was alright, but it didn't make fun of him being a flirt besides the S support.

CynthiaxInigo is probably the best one when it comes to an actual love story (i thought it was cute). But we all know romatic comedy wins right?

I didn't do ServeraxInigo cause i had done both Severa and Cordelia with MU already that i never used them.. So no idea how that support is

Tempted to play copycat with these class changes in my next runthrough, lol


Currently grinding my team with Limit Breakers, though. I want the team as tough as possible for Death's Embrace and Future Past.

I made it to secret battle 4, but lost due to recklessness going after the commanding Berserker thinking Severa paired with Inigo could take him... I suck at this.

magic is your friend
hit him from afar with Celica's Gale
(or you could be a daredevil like me and attack up close and hope you kill him before the counterattack)

I did mage dragons my last run... Its terrible


For some reason, in my reverse harem run, my Lissa is SUPEEER str blessed. She had like 12 str when i made her a pegasus knight. Owain gonna be super strong this run :0

Lon'qu still never gets str for me when he's a myrmydin :| did change him to a wyvern and results did show a substantial increase in str. I conclude myrmydin is just not his calling



I played a chapter in first person animation. Its so sick watching it in first person view as a flier. 3D mode actually was entertaining this way.

I hate grinding

But i brought this upon myself to grind MU supports.


The character supports are actually pretty good though :0. Learning why Lon'qu had a fear of women was interesting (Lon'quxCherche)

Henry has dumb supports.

On my first run, my Lon'qu was strength blessed. Just hope you don't have someone turn out like my Sumia did in my first run (20/20/20 and still less than 60 HP =/ ).

(or you could be a daredevil like me and attack up close and hope you kill him before the counterattack)
This is what I did the first time with SeveraxInigo and it didn't look pretty. Had to use myself and Morgan to Celica Gale the **** our of him.

Finally able to beat the secret battles. I got scared because I thought Anna would move to me, but then she didn't and it was the last turn so I had to rush me&Morgan and ChromxSumia to end it.

Going all-in with the grime
So I finally got around to beating my grind-less Lunatic mode file today. By the endgame, my team had been whittled down to Robin (Tactician -> Grandmaster for Rally Spectrum/Ignis -> Mercenary for Armsthrift -> Hero for Sol -> Dark Knight), Morgan (Tactician -> lvl. 10 Grandmaster -> Hero with Armsthrift and Rightful King inherited), Lucina (Lord -> Great Lord -> Paladin, Armsthrift from Robin), with GK Chrom, GK Stahl, and Hero Cordelia for pair-up. Lucina was a bit behind the Robin/Morgan show because of lack of good 1-2 range and no Sol (this skill is GODLIKE in Lunatic mode), but she could still do OK.

Endgame was pretty crazy. The game plan was to have Morgan/Stahl and Robin/Cordelia escort Lucina/Chrom up to Grima so they could abuse Falchion's effective bonus on him to KO him ASAP. In fact, because Lucina was lagging behind, I had to give her a Speedwing and a Speed Tonic just so that she could double Grima with Chrom's support and a Rally. I was mad at myself for having just re-classed Chrom from Great Lord to Great Knight because I could have really used the Speed, but I was able to get exactly as much Speed as I needed. Turn 1 was uneventful because nobody could reach me yet. Turn 2, I had Morgan take out the Berserker in front of Grima, Robin rallied both the others, and Lucina slipped through the freshly created hole and attacked Grima. The enemy phase was where things got chaotic.

Morgan had a forged Hand Axe, but it was just a little bit too weak to ORKO the Berserker without relying on an Ignis activation or a dual attack from Stahl, so I used his Alm's Blade to play it safe. Because of this, he got swarmed by ranged enemies (most of whom had Spears for WTA); the AI was fairly smart and had them go first so Morgan couldn't counter-attack, and since Sol was his claim to durability, this put him in a really bad spot. Then a Paladin attacks him, nearly finishing him off when there were still 10-15 enemies waiting to move, and I was just waiting for him to die so I could restart. This was when Morgan, who finally had his first chance to attack since the enemy phase, proceed to get SIX Sol activations IN A ROW, bringing him back to high HP. But it wasn't over; he still had to endure a ton of attacks. At one point, and Assassin with a Killing Edge landed a crit to put him at 1HP...and Morgan responded with a double Sol, putting him back close to 40. I was dumbfounded.

My Luck wasn't all good though; Lucina was holding up OK against Grima (Morgan diverted most of the other enemy forces away from her), but Chrom missed all 4 of the dual attacks he attempted between turn 2 player and turn 2 enemy. -.- Lucina needed the help too; Dragonskin + 80% activation Pavise is a *****. On turn 3, I had Morgan clear out an enemy with his hand axe, allowing Robin to get close enough to Rally Lucina as well as Morgan, and Lucina took another stab at Grima. Chrom missed his 5th dual attack in a row, then finally landed the 6th after Lucina activated Ignis to finish Grima off.

I don't know what Chrom's hit rate on Grima was, but I REALLY doubt it was less than 50%. Morgan's Sol activation rate was 57%, thanks to capped Skill and RK; I am so glad Sol takes priority over Ignis.

tl;dr - Robin and Morgan are broken, Sol is busted, and the RNG Goddess decided to have some fun with me~

That was so bad lol.

On a side note, here's hoping to see a lot more FE rep in Smash 4. More than two characters this time please.

I wouldn't mind if Lucina replaced Marth as Marth. Chrom isn't super distinct though. More powerful than Marth, but not nearly as strong as Ike, so I'm not sure he would work. MU, maybe. The only other notable fighting characters in the game are Freddy and Walhart.

I'd say Marth will stay, with Masked Lucina as an alt costume. What I want is MU/Chrom pair (I wouldn't want solo Chrom), Lyn with her DLC dual-weilding design, and maybe some other character who doesn't use a sword (Sigurd with a lance or Tharja).
Poor Ike and Roy have no room in my (borderline) realistic wishlist.

Edit: Anna would make a lot of sense.

Is the dlc really worth it? I already payed $40 for the game, and to spend more feels wrong. I got infinite regalia, gold, and exponential growth. I got all the lost bloodlines, as dread fighter and paragon are godly. But is it worth it?

Part of me says that games on other systems cost $60, so its like in buying the rest of the game, but it just feels like it isn't worth it

I feel the same way after only buying the golden pack. However I will be dropping another $20 for Challenge Pack, Future Past, Apotheosis, and Rogue's and Redeemers 3. Mainly because those are the toughest maps in the entire game, Future Past brings more to the story, Apotheosis will be my *****, and of course I need limit breaker for the secret route.

edit: That and I've already spent 150+ hours on a $40 dollar purchase, so the additional $20 can sort of be a tribute to the developers for such a great game.

Rogues and Redeemers 2 I believe is quite helpful due to the Limit Break skill, especially if you want to create a strong StreetPass team, Apotheosis is probably the ultimate challenge map, and Future Past 1-3 felt like the game's true ending/alternate ending. I suppose you could watch a Let's Play for Future Past if you don't feel like spending the money.

Future Past is my favorite one. If I could only have one pack, it would be that one. But I suppose not many people share that opinion as it doesn't give you any special items.

The future past ending felt like it had more closure than the actual main story line did.

I want that so badly but I don't know if I can comfortably have that on display in my living area.
