Gah, the bug with the Japanese voices option is super annoying.
Yeah. I'm getting into a habit of switching it everytime I play but I shouldn't have to do this. >:[

Does it mean anything when people talk in the barracks and say something like "hey we should fight together next time" without any relationship improved message or anything? Is there some kind of bonus to relationship increases in the next fight or something?
I gave up within an hour, especially in one of the early chapters where I reset like 10 times, not going to spend an extra 30 seconds EVERY time, the english voices are fine anyways, most of the dialog is in cutscenes, which aren't super plentiful.
Wow, that seems like that has the potential to be aggravating.
Oh, so I don't have to worry about it in Awakening due to all these reclasses. Nice.
I wonder what Asset and Flaw everyone here picked for their characters. I'm kind of second guessing my Magic/-Luck Avatar now.

I think I'm way too focused on opening up all the children paralogues and getting supports. I can't remember the last time I've done a storyline chapter...
It's funny though, you can see how fairly liberal the translation/localization was with this game based on the voiced dialogue. The second time through I'd probably play it with English voices.

I ran Kellam and Sully together; they were my first (and so far only) marriage. The dialogue is worth the effort!

So what's the best way to class up my characters?
Raise them to a certain level, then use a second seal, then raise that up and give them the master seal? Or just go straight to the master seal? or what?

Yeah, all the subs are probably based off the English voices so it's pretty off timed with the Japanese voices.
On another note, why am I fighting a random encounter full of nothing of charging mages.
just a question, I just woke up and saw a new SpotPass for new DLC. Am I reading this right. If we wait for Champions of Yore 3 next week and buy Champions pack, we get both 2 & 3 for $4.00 since they discounted it until March 6 along with the first DLC which will no longer be free by that time?
If you buy the champions pack now, you get 1, 2, and 3 for $4.00 (though 3 does not actually RELEASE until next week: Think of it as a pre-purchase, like on Steam).
Once Champions 1 is no longer free, the pack will increase in price (champions 1 will be 2.50, and the pack will increase from $4.00 to $6 I believe)
I'm wondering this as well. I've got a couple units over level 10 and I'm wondering if it's still worth it to level them to 20 before promotion.

Take a look at the skills that unit's class plans on learning. If you're not interested in them, or their promoted class' skills or already got them, feel free to use a Second Seal to change classes anytime. Same goes for the Master Seal if you're not interested or have learned both of the tier 1 skills.

Your girl looks like Mitsuru.
I feel like making a character that looks like Ichigo from Bleach now.

I beat this game this morning after having clocked in 35 hours. Normal/Casual might as well be called "Steamroll the entire game mode", especially if you grind for relationships like I did.
Playing through again with a female MU this time on Hard/Classic, and WHOA is this a huge jump in difficulty. I'm resetting every 5 minutes or less, and I'm only up to chapter 5.
I really liked the story in this game, though. Right up there with PoR on its own. The way they handled the children and inheritance in this game was even more interesting than in FE4. Speaking of that - is it true we're going to get DLC based on the

This being my first Fire Emblem, I'm really happy I started on Casual to get a feel for everything first. I'm awful. ):
I'm excited to see all the stress and anger Classic will give me when I playthrough it on that.
now i'm just wondering who to use my first master seal on

We actually don't have to worry about this anymore. Even a maxed out promoted unit can use a Second Seal to revert to level 1 of any tier/class.
Yep. There's 3 parts to it.
Anna is kind of a waste skill wise, cause she won't have a kid so you won't have another character inheriting MU's skills. It works in terms of 'I think they make a good couple and I'll do whatever' though.
I gave no shits about passing down stats, or skills. I ended up going with Anna because she was interesting, had red hair and had no other marriage options. Marriage out of pity? Maybe.
oh! thats surprising, guess I'll get it now. Also can't believe the DLC system implemented here.

The whole setup for DLC here was added at the ending of development, and it's pretty clear they were heavily reusing the guest avatar structure to add them without changing the main game. I think the implementation in the next one would be better. I don't think they'd give unique classes to the Lords though, to be honest.
Well, they might give them classes, but, if Eirika Bride and Alm Demon Fighter here show anything is that most of those classes would be made to stand out by themselves, not just update old characters.
Go to the Wireless menu, bonus box, and then update. You should get some "NEW" tags afterwards on the teams and weapons.
Kind of. It's actually an
alternate world that resembles Lucina's future, but it's not her real future - and the state of the world actually is somehow even worse than in hers
You're supposed to turn it on from the option in the Extras menu, right after the title screen.

I've switched mostly to 2nd gen characters but I still use her, I like her as well. It's too bad they couldn't make a few more kids for the remaining marriage options.
So it's more a question of interest in skills? Alright then. I think I'll stick to first-tier for the moment just to get more EXP off kills for now though, unless they changed that too.
Might promote Lissa early though. Pairing up works a lot better when the partner unit can, y'know, attack.

Ok, the paralogue where you recruit
is putting my stress levels with this game at an all time high...

Are you able to pass down DLC skills?
Thanks for the link. I don't mind too much about the Lords class, though I thought they did a really good job on giving all the campaign units unique head sprites (except for the Berserker class).

No, you can not.
The only potential problem is in long term, since each character has like an internal level cap, which I think is around 50 for some characters, where they start to get super low exp afterwards. So for example
10 myrmidon (you learn their skill) - > 5 swordsmaster (learn first skill) ->15 swordsmaster for skill or 10 swordsmaster and use second seal to Hero
or
20 myrmidon -> 20 swordsmaster (then use a second seal to hero)-> 20 hero
The 2nd scenerio wastes a lot more levels, you will gain slower exp for promoting faster, but you have the potential to get more skills in the long run.

Thanks, time to make some babies.
That took me 32 turns, I chicken shitted all the way through it. I lured enemies constantly and crept places with whole party slowly.

There are points where I think I have everything together, and then like three walls fall while half my party is spread out, and I'm just like "NOT LIKE THIS" as I'm scrambling to try and get everything to be ok. It's barely going well so far ;_;

How does kids work? You get a guy and gal to S rank, and then something happens?
Whats a good way to 'grind some love' anyways? Just pair up and do challenge or dlc stages?

Basically all of that, yes.
Exactly this. Except "Something happens" is "a paralogue opens up and you recruit a new character in it."

Those carry over. THe only thing that changes is the level number. And I guess your stats if you change to a job where the stat cap is lower than your current stat.

I see... btw what class does your baby start out as, or can you choose? Should I not even bother marrying until I have gotten some decent skills as parents, or does it not matter cuz you can just grind the kids up those classes anyways?
Are there even any 'bad' babies? Not sure if I wanna use a guide or just pick the most hilarious pairs.

There's a skill called Aegis that Paladins get at 15. Halves damage from bows, tomes, and Dragonstones.
Man, I feel if I don't level up and use every unit I'm wasting them. I'm ocd about missing some really good dialogue or a badass character. I'm going to have to do multiple playthroughs
And I hope donnel and miriel have an interesting support relationship. I thought it would be great to pair the bumpkin villager and the scholarly mage.

The default class is specific to the child (each woman has their own child no matter who they marry, as does your avatar character) but possible classes are partially dependant on what their parents possible classes are. It doesn't matter too much who marries who. Everyone's awesome in this game.

I see... so what happens when you finish that baby chapter, is there a 'woohoo' screen where you can pick classes from a list?
