If you are basically looking to learn as many skills, then yes.

Does anyone know the name of the song that plays during the skirmishes? Or at least the first skirmish...I've only played one so far, so I don't know if their are different tracks for the skirmishes.
So danged good. The way the FE theme was worked into it was just brilliant...

Pretty much a running joke in FE games. Also appeared in FE6 and FE10.

Welp, just bought the Champion pack. Hopefully all the future dlc comes in bundles.

He gets his second ability at level 15
You want skill, it ups the chance of a strong ability procing in the future.

Fuck Donny, I let him die in his first mission. I don't need no kids in my herd.
Also, I chose HP as my weakness because I'm the best.

Thought so. I was trying to go with a build I normally wouldn't.
The kid who grows up to be the best party member. That feel when the kid with a pot on his head says yee haw after trashing an end-game boss.

Much to my surprise, this finally shipped from Gamefly yesterday, so i'll finally get a whack at this after Mardi Gras.

Yeah, it just occurred to me why I've suddenly been feeling fatigued. I've been playing this game almost nonstop in 3D for roughly 30 hours in the span of three days. Finally had to turn the 3D off. But I ain't gonna stop playing.

O_O He wasn't just a guy who loved bowling? I threw his ashes into the wind, but if what you're saying is true, then they're blowing right back into my face.

Mmmkay, I just opened up Outrealm and did the free scenario a few times. My weapons are starting to wind down to breaking and I can't seem to find a way to earn money. I heard you can earn some gold in these DLC maps. How, exactly?

Behold the farmboy's might. If I had my 3DS with me I'd post a screen of a maxed out of every stat except magic and res Hero at level 15.

WHY
Still wouldn't use him.

Are you going to let all the child characters die? It would be an.. interesting.. second half of the game for you.

People called Romanes they go the house?
I dunno. Donnel and Panne (I thought the trap support conversations were hilariously weird) are both rocking house as a Hero/Assassin respectively, but it takes them forever to get a level up.
Granted, it's the equivalence of something like an extra 20 levels worth of xp slowdown, but why use them when I need to get Lissa to 15 Dark Flier (she's at 9 :/) for Owain to get Galeforce, level up Cherche/Virion and Miriel/Gaius more to get their kids better starting stats/skills, and keep filling out the support convos between kids and parents, while trying not to overly abuse the DLC maps and keep to the story (of which I'm failing).
Incidentally, there's almost too much to do in this game, lol. Gonna have to save a seperate playthrough for when more DLC is out, I think.

So true. I could beat most maps with just those two alone.
I just got Henry [focusing on leveling my Units further, now, to get the Skills needed before starting the children Prologue's] and...wow. What a dark sense of humor. He makes me laugh, though, especially his "hee hee" after battle. Oh, and his conversations with Maribelle [his soon-to-be wife] have been interesting.
A quick question about the "Counter" Skill. Does it affect magic, as well, or just melee weapons? I already know that you can't counter with Nosferatu and heal when your enemy attacks, but can you at least hit them back with spells? If not, it seems to be pretty useless for my purposes since I'm planning on making my two children to be amazing spell-casters, just like their parents [MU/Tharja].

It is just adjacent attacks. If it is ranged, Counter won't activate regardless if magic or physical.

Donnel is so powerful that I'm fairly certain he could solo the remaining story missions with a single sword.
Give him an upgraded stick! That's what he uses in my game right now. Makes him killing everything even more hilarious.

I played the easiest "Bonus Box" battle a 2nd time, and it told me that by doing it I'd be able to improve the stats of the character you recruit. However after I finished the mission, they just asked me to choose between the character I already had, and another one with identical stats. What's the story?
It's hard to get him to a usable point but once you do it's yee haw!
Anyway my Gaius almost died today. Some ass with a lance poped up randomly and tried to kill him. He would have done it too if Lethality hadn't proced when Gaius counterattacked. Can you say goddamn?
Thanks, but can you counter back using magic, or just via actual weapons [swords/axes/etc.]? I'm trying to decide if it will be worth anything for my Mage, since she won't be using actual weapons much.

And yes. I guess there's a new one following me that's a mage, which hurts me since I love magic users. But I have to trim the hedges.
If it was up to me, my whole team would be magic users paired with generals.
Blue are Forged items. It just means that they're more powerful.
That's Morgan for me. Donnel is solid, but still takes some hits, whereas almost no enemy can even hit Morgan.. and Ignis activates every-single-turn. I can sent Morgan into any group of enemies in the later Paralogue and story Chapters on Hard and nothing is a threat.

It's not even like you attack back with Counter but it is an instantaneous smack back at the enemy.
Here's a video of it in action killing your own swordmaster.
Far more has been said in this thread without spoiler tags than what I 'revealed'. Let your mind race.
Rofl. That's hilarious.
Perfect, thanks so much for your reply!
I guess I'll choose it as the Skill I'll pass down. The majority of the "Unique" ones seem to favor melee classes more, so between Counter and Sol...I guess I'll choose Counter. It's better than nothing, I suppose!
