So my sister stole my copy of the game before I could get very far and she wants me to ask you guys questions about reclassing/master classes.
She wants to know if it's a good idea to use a master seal on: Chrom(20),Sumia(15),Cordelia(16), Cherche(16), Lucina(20) and Micaiah(15).
And what are some good classes to switch to for Frederick,Cherche,Sumia,Cordelia, and Micaiah?
I've never played Fire Emblem before, so obviously I'm not much help. If there have been any good explanations or strategies for this earlier in the thread could someone point me to them? It's all a little overwhelming.

Hell it's already hard to find.

Well it seems my Best Buy has it in store or I can order it still. I guess I'll get on it. I had a 3DS but after the 3DS XL came out I sold it because I felt I shouldn't have to deal with such a small/odd form factor if I don't have to. But I used the money on a Wii U. In retrospect, I probably should've held off on the Wii U until X and all those other games were closer to release. And the 3DS seems to be getting a ton of good games and definitely is much stronger on the RPG side than the Vita has been so far, sadly.

Yeah, I just looked through Bestbuy, Amazon and Ebay super quickly, and they seem to still have some offers at normal prices (sprinkled in with more outrageous pricetags.) I may be wrong, but it seems like it'll be relatively easy to find for the short, foreseeable future, but then disappear for good. (At least regarding physical copies.)
(Also, I'm hoping Vita will pick up steam soon. I really want 3DS and Vita to become sister-juggernauts for JRPG's this gen.)

I like to wait until level 20 for promotion because it's easier to gain experience before promotion. Also I've found that it's better to promote and then use a second seal at lvl.10+ promoted to another promoted class, because those skills are generally better. In any case, get Micaiah out of that demeaning outfit and make her go Mage->Sage.

Yeah that's what I'm afraid of.
And yeah I really want the Vita to pick up, too. I honestly didn't get it for the touch screen stuff (at least not the back part. That is annoying to use). Was hoping that, like the 3DS, it'd get some RPG love.

That's what I was saying a few pages back!
Is his talk with his son the exact same as any other father? Because I can't really see any other male character having that conversation.

Finally beat paralogue 13 with both armies as enemies. Basically I:
Also I'm getting annoying of the barracks conversations, Lon'qu saying that I've to sleep at 2AM, pftt.
Spread my team in two, one with Miriel, Frederick, Sully and Sthal (with silver weapons and S support) and the other with Kjalla, Ingo, Noire, Tharja and Gaius with S support between them, the sad part is that the generals of both armies are way too easy, it's just the overwhelming number of enemies that made that chapter hard

Not yet, but I'm personally expecting Lost Bloodlines 2 to be released this Thursday because so far it looks like they're trying to alternate between the Lost Bloodlines and Golden maps every week.

Idk, having her marry Lon'qu for 24/7 blushing is pretty great. That and having her son be the polar opposite was pretty hilarious
Lon'qu's true love is Miriel, nothing like a billion armless statues to declare true love.

Considering the whole reason why Inigo acts like that comes from advice from his mother, his dad could be anyone.
If we want to be technical, Maribelle is why he acts that way, actually.
Lunatic and above doesn't know the meaning of the word balance, but even below that it feels like the developers just never know how they're handling the difficulty progression. Early on it feels like you can't do any optional content without breaking things, but then you have these weird jumps once Valm starts up where you start facing entire armies of promoted enemies and you start getting outclassed rapidly if you haven't been focusing on 5 or so key units. It's an incredibly uneven experience.

I want to buy the DLC maps but all I get is ERROR this and ERROR that.
It's like Nintendo doesn't WANT me to buy stuff from them.
****ing annoying.

Their joining and parent support convos are virtually identical so I wouldn't get too hyped
What error?

That sounds weird you are trying to purchase it in game and not on the Eshop right?

I forgot, various numbers, but referring to Google it said "E-shop is undergoing maintenance" or stuff like that.
Once it connected from the Outrealm Gate, but after the "loading map line-up" screen it errored again -_________-
Bah, I'll try it again later. I just add 20 bucks to my 3DS, and I am planning to buy all the DLC maps available right now (if Nintendo allows me to do that, that is -___________-)
If eShop is undergoing maintenance then yeah, you can't buy DLC.
Okay so I'm new to the series, and oh god, grinding is such a bitch.
My lowbies like Donnell and the SpotPass recruits are just ridiculous to try and level. They gotta get into the thick of it in order to level up but they die so easily. There's not really that much gold bullion in the risen encounters and repeating SpotPass battles just drains gold. This is a nightmare for the completionist in me.
Should I just surrender and get the Golden Pack DLC? I like this game but this is torture.

Quick question, it is normal that even if I have my audio set to Japanese I just heard "Welcome home", "Thank you" and "It's all right" in this cutscene from chapter 2?
dakkumauji

Audio's bugged in that the game resets itself to English audio regardless of which audio you were anytime you stop playing, via turning it off or putting the game into sleep mode, etc.
Only way to fix that is to manually go back into the Extras menu, changing the audio to English and then back to Japanese.

Oh geez, they should have cut down the quips character make when they are chatting with one another. Hearing "What?" "Huh?" "Yes!" "Thank You!" etc etc etc etc in rapid successive manner can really ruin the mood, especially since most of the time it seems like the game just pick them out randomly instead of using the most appropriate one to the conversation.
Oh, and my favorite guy so far (I am in chapter 9) is still Kellam. Finding it difficult to choose which girl to marry him off to: so far the highest girl with him is Lissa, and their conversation is adorable (cliched, but still adorable nonetheless.)
Say, I know that Chrom is forced to marry someone on Chapter 11 if you haven't done it yet for him at that point, but what other characters? Any other limit for them as well?
Anyways, this baby just arrived:
Making it admittedly kind of hard for me to focus still on Fire Emblem, hahaha. Oh well.

Some of these one liners are killing me.
Inigo talking to his mom: "The time you jumped out from that waterfall nearly gave me a waterfall in my pants!"

You can use the Reeking Boxes to grind without losing money (in fact, you will be slowly gaining money..)Okay so I'm new to the series, and oh god, grinding is such a bitch.

Not only of the cartridge, any FE copy on THAT 3ds will be able to access it. Of course, the DLC doesn't go with the cartridge.

Really, you only require minimal grinding to get through the game. I ended up with highly overpowered units and RARELY ever touched spotpass battles or reeking boxes. Playing on hard, mind you.
In this game, at least, it's really about abusing the pair up system. Donnell's tough to level up for a few maps, but once he gets his footing (glass weaponry doesn't hurt either), you can manage to get him to level 15 and class over using a Master Seal. He becomes a monster though, and quite quickly.
Using characters I didn't use before is a lot of fun. Already promoted Ricken (and married him to Maribelle), Kellam, and Miriel and I'm gonna train Panne and Gregor soon. Training Maribelle is kind of a pain though lol.
No one besides Chrom has to marry nor is there a time limit.

Well I definitely have a few beasts. My Chrom/Sumia pair, My Avatar/Cordelia pair, and even solo Frederick are seriously imba. If all I was doing was primarily using the standard characters I likely wouldn't have any serious issues.
My main problem is likely the fact that I'm recruiting dudes from the SpotPass battles and trying to level them as well. I'm basically being a completionist and it's just a pain to try and level these characters. Donnell isn't the only one I'm trying to beef.
Whoa, you're trying to level up EVERYONE? That's intense. Keep in mind, you can only have so many people in your army, so you can't get EVERY spotpass unit.

What about on casual? I never put them on my teams, but I will if I know I can purge them that way.

My main motivation for also doing this is not necessarily going to use the characters but rather to get their support conversations.
Man, trying to 100% support conversations will be a long, long process but I think I'll enjoy it nonetheless.
That's fine, but spotpass characters too? Now that's just crazy.
Oh.
Did not know that.
So what's the deal with SpotPass characters then? Are they just there in case you PermaDeath too many of the main characters?
That, and um it's more like giving chances for fans to play as their old faves, because everybody loves Moulder.
