Ike had a bike that he really really liked, but a mite gave a bite, and it gave quite a fright.


He fell off and landed on Roy, who was carelessly walking in the wrong part of the city, at the wrong time. Baffled, Ike was spotted Roy's contract, and here he is today. He's been suited up ever since, no baths, no sweat, no sympathy.

I suppose Nils doesn't count, but both he and Ninian are half-dragons.

And you forgot Mist and Rolf.

Mist uses a sword and magic.

I hate Rolf so didn't mention him.

Ross............. Defys logic, he goes from scrawny little boy to mister buffed up in a few months?

Double Bow breaks archers in that game....1-3 range for a Marksman? lol

In RD, Shinon is technically better because he has much better starting stats so it's easier to level him up to his full potential, but Rolf has better growths in some areas (Str being their greatest difference).

In PoR, I don't bother with either because archers are terrible.

Archers suck either way. They have no enemy phase countering unless its in a group of archers, which 1-2 range weapons can handle.

Sure endgame you get 1-3 range but thats only endgame..



Also, Rolf's 70% str growth is is BS. Its more than Boyd!

I respectfully disagree. Use them right with the rest of your team and they're great. Assuming you don't get bad stat growths in spd and str, they have some of the highest damage output in the game. Also, the 1-2 range bows suck hard (until double bow, which is probably best weapon in game).

I wish Astrid were as good in RD as she was in PoR. But that's why we have Rolf, aka the best beorc character.

any unit can be used right with your team. I think archers Need a meatsheild which doesn't help in the open so they can't part take in that role.

I'm just saying an archer's role can be replaced by a 1-2 range weapon.

But no matter,i like pegasus knights, and they aren't that good either. We all have our tastes :x


Best beroc unit is Haar, he starts off best, stays best till end game, then becomes average.

He has the 2nd most avaliblity i think..

Unless you meant something else by best

Haar indeed is a great unit. But I didn't use him endgame, because I had Brom and Nephenee + the mercenaries + Tibarn and Caineghis + the required characters. If I could have traded Sanaki for Haar endgame, though, I would have done it in a heartbeat.

I don't like Pegasus knights for only one reason: weak to too many weapons. I really enjoyed having Sigrun and Tanith, but I had to watch out for any bow, ballista, or wind tomes way too much. Same thing for the hawks and ravens (aside from their respective kings, because they hardly get hit or take damage).

I don't think there are many 1-2 range weapons that will outdo a bow. They don't have many uses, and when you equip one on someone, they have to use it to counter whatever attacks them too. Bows have high durability, and you can use your other units who are better in melee range for melee range.

I wish Soren weren't so damn amazing so I could call Ilyana best mage for sure.
But Ilyana still best mage.
Most kills = best character, right? Flawless logic.

Well archers aren't pointless, just limited in offense. The crit buff they got really makes them nice to use in corriders.

Illyana would be fine if she didn't have crap speed and growth and if thunder magic wasn't unwarrantly nerfed.

Yea Pegasus knights are frail, but they fly~ which is why i use them.

In theory they sucked until RD, because of the BS Def both Shinon and Rolf get (and Res for Shinon). Then they turned into deadly, possibly-countering meatshields on enemy phase >_>

Leonardo's still the worst archer of all time, though.

And Arbalest isn't too bad for the crossbows, but I forget when you get those. But yeah, technically they shouldn't be exposed to more than one or two hits at a time, and they're supposed to be behind the people taking the most enemies on to pick them off.

lol again with the FE talk. Think it's about high time we put a warning in the first post stating that random talk will somehow have a 35% chance of ending up leading into a talk about FE.
Or if anything about axes, whips, chains, <insert other form of medieval weaponry here>, will somehow end up about people speaking in regards to a FE character and their stats/story.

^ @ above idea... That would probably make many many many many new minigame ideas.
Illyana would be fine if she didn't have crap speed and growth and if thunder magic wasn't unwarrantly nerfed.
My Ilyana maxed every stat, I think except luck. Get at me.
It does sad me that thunder tomes got nerfed. =[
Probably because it ***** pretty hardcore in part 4, and counters wyverns, which you oppose more than flying units or beast tribe.

I'm just gonna pretend this conversation isn't over and say that rolf in PoR was a really good archer if you bothered to train him. It's possible to get him to the others' level in about 2 missions. too bad the double bow sucks so bad it looks like a flaw in the programation.
I found nephenee and mia to be as godlike as haar during the game. And better at endgame.

other than that: combo video gone wrong http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9bhuSVDD1I

Lol, that was pretty hilarious. Was gonna comment on the bad music, cause I was expecting the lyrical version to that song. I like the song, but just don't feel it's meant for Brawl.
