Leif's Blade + Donnel = Infinite Money
My Leif's Blade on Donnel's son, Inigo, is forged to be named Mo' Money.
My Leif's Blade on Donnel is forged to be named Mo' Problems.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
I let Kellam die early in the game. I regret nothing.
Still have everyone else (except Vaike, who died and I didn't like him enough to bother restarting the battle)
Btw, when you forge, are you only forging that specific weapon, or all weapons of that type for that character? (eg. if I have a beaststone at 5, and I forge it, and it breaks, will the next beaststone retain the forged stats of the last one?)

About the Golden GAFfe DLC
Ok I just ran some test. It seems if you try to do the stage twice in a row, the enemies get stronger. I did Donnel's paralogue and tried again and they were back at the original level. And when I tried a second run, all of them were stronger.

Amazing XD
I thought of that too, but he still doesn't have the necessary weapon level :T
It's a nice touch lol. Poor Kellam... wait, who?
the former. It's only for that specific item.
If I have five 45/45 Iron Swords and I decide on buffing one up, the other four won't suddenly get a buff.

It would be even funnier if the game was programmed to simply ignore the Kellam unit in general, like never attack him on their turn.

If this was PoR, Kellam would totally have Shade as his ability when he first joins.

It takes less than a minute to clear Golden Gaffe with auto battle. Infinite money and easy leveling....must not abuse.

As overpowered as it would be, he should have started with already knowing Pass.
Better off than a lot of the cast that isn't on there ;_;

Yeah why aren't Shade and Provoke skills in this? I miss those. They were fun.
Heck, I hope we get

Honestly I didn't mess with it much, it didn't seem like it was worth the money most of the time. The one big exception is with guys who have the armsthrift skill though, since that gives them a chance of not taking up a use when they use a weapon. I made an incredibly powerful Killer Axe for Donnel since he had a 96% chance of not using any uses on it, for instance.

Do they seriously still not have the game? Sheesh, I don't regret my decision to cancel my preorder and spend a little more money anymore.
That's one of the reasons why I didnt bought it physical. Word of advice: buy it on the Canadian store, it will save you around$ 250 pesos.

I don't think I've gotten Leif's Blade; is there a reliable way to get it? Or is it a random drop on the sparkley spaces?
It's a renown award somewhere down the line...

Random drop or earn 1500 Renown points to get one.
SolarKnight

Random from sparkley spaces or from villages in the DLC.
Do you spend renown to get the items or do you just have to have enough to meet the required amount for the item?
dakkumauji

Just have enough to get it.
My favorite part about Awakening's already awesome cover art is that I just realized Kellam is there, but he's the hardest to notice because he's the furthest in the background, partially faded out, and his face is obscured by Chrom's knee.
Fantastic.
ahahahahahahahahaha
Kellam is so awesome, you'd expect his conversations to suggest he's really shy or something, but instead he's weirdly passive aggressive. I love it.
Okay, I told myself I wasn't going to complain about units missing from spotpass, but seriously... no Nephenee? And why include Geoffrey? Does anyone care about him?
I guess it's because there's no soldier class. Or they realized they could never make a better one. (Aran who?)

Nephenee isn't apart of the FE9's batch but FE10's instead.

There is a soldier class, isn't there? Just not playable. Like most games.

It's so awkward that she's a knight though. I assume growth rates in this game are the same as the originals? That would make it acceptable at least.
And I guess I'm going to get Olivia to level 30 as a dancer then go straight to Dark Flier for Galeforce. She seems fast enough that I'd never need speed +2 (especially with all stats +2 as an option) and I don't really care about the other peg knight skill.

Well if she was a solider instead, she would have no class skills and can't promote besides changing classes!
He is superb. Put him on top of Cordelia and they rule maps left and right.
I noticed you mentioned a couple of times. Does that mean I should reclass, say, Chrom into another class instead of upgrading to Great Lord?
Ahaha, by buying online I mean that I'll order my physical copy from an online store
I really want the physical copy.That's what I'm doing on my lunatic run. I went 1-20 in lord but his stats still suck, so I'm gonna do 1-20 in cavalier (or until he starts capping stats) From there I'll probably promote to Paladin, and switch to Great Lord with a Second Seal afterwards. Although it might be easier to have just gone to great lord because everything hits so god damned hard on this difficulty.

I feel dirty using the golden gaffe for money every once in awhile, but dear lord is this game stingy about giving money. No way I am going to farm battles for hours just to have enough to outfit my units or get a master seal. One 5 minute golden gaffe match will do, but it feels wrong. Ugh, have a feeling if I had stuck with normal I would feel differently, but yikes on hard.
I still very rarely get any Risen to even spawn so my run is basically Golden Gaffe or Leif's Blade/Despoil grind.

After sleep + work yesterday and letting the game idle on the map the entire time, I got a grand total of zero anything. ;_;

And the kick in the pants is your weapons deteriorate and you have to buy new ones, so there goes part of the money were grinding for. Screw that, I will just hit up golden gaffe when a need some gold and just enjoy the game otherwise.
Is there a way to keep your forged/improved weapons? Seems silly to spend all that money on them for them just have a limited use. Is there no repair option.
Yeah... I've had TWO risen teams concurrently spawned on my defense/strength potion store, so if I wanted to free it up I would have to fight both at the same time. I would've done them one at a time since they spawned separately, but I did a chapter first to level up and actually deal with the first group. Then the second group spawned on top of it when I finished the chapter. Funnily enough, I would rather fight the combined group now (it had lower level risen) than fight the risen camps I'm currently seeing on my map.
