Support NeoGAF

[Tiktaalik]

I just finished playing one of the early paralogues, where there are three villagers across from a river. I beat it pretty easily, but those villagers bizarrely ran straight toward the baddies on the left side of the screen, even after Chrom talked to them. They all died even though I valiantly tried to save them.

Any special bonuses if I save these guys? Should I give the mission another shot? If so any good strategies to save these idiots?

ok, first FE game, so it's taken me a while to figure this out re: reclassing and promoting

With reclassing, it just has you switch to a 1st tier class and learn new skills/relevel. So ideally you should go to 15 to learn all the skills

With promoting, you become a 2nd tier class andyou get a hidden +20 level, so thats why you level slower. But you get massive stat growth. So you should promote at 20 after you're done playing around gathering skills in the 1st tier classes?

Is Marth a genderbend or a different person using his name?

It's a pseudonym. They reveal who they really are further into the story.

Not many 1st tier classes have worthwhile skills. After you get to level 10 in a promoted class you can use a second seal to reclass to other promoted classes. The promoted skills are generally the ones you want.

ahh, ok, so the point is to promote and then reclass around the promoted classes? Got it! But then when does mercenary and armsthrift come into play?

If you want to get armsthrift or any other skills from 1st stage classes get those before you promote. Once you've promoted you don't really want to reclass to a prepromoted class because they have much lower stat caps.

I think you mean unpromoted not prepromoted

I wasted rescue to save those guys and I got shit for that. I mean what the hell why would I want the subpar E weapons with 1 MT. What the hell....

If you save one you get an Angel Robe (+5 hp to a character), 2nd and 3rd guys are pretty worthless rewards.

 

[backlot]

Yeah, that. Prefixes.

 

[Anteo]

Also, doing a No Random Encounters, No DLC, Paralogues and Main game only, Final Destination run is so hard, I have to think what characters I can use and currently I can't train Tharja =/ I really don't have another slot for a mage in my Army. I really wanted to use her.

Got it thanks! Loving this game so far

They're not completely worthless since those weapons give more weapon exp than usual but for the effort required to get them in that Paralogue, yeah they're worthless.

 

[Marz]

Oh cool I might just beat that paralogue and let those villagers die then.

 

[Gestahl]

With how prevalent and easy to obtain stat items and high level staves are this should be your mantra for just about every villager

That's awesome.

Sumia looks so out of place in the family shots with her not blue hair.

 

[Chet Rippo]

Sumia looks so out of place in the family shots with her not blue hair.

Unless you pair them up with husbands with similar color hair, the mother always feels out of place with their kids I say. Well, maybe not Panne and Nowi with their kids...

 

[Mr. Fix]

Awesome. Canon pair indeed.

 

[Busaiku]

Cynthia looks so weird without blue hair.

 

[MillionVolts]

I don't get it....

 

[Chet Rippo]

I don't get it....

 

[alfredofroylan]

Finally got Gangrel today and my what a useless cretin he is. On the plus side I finally understand why the rescue staff is so awesome.

 

[dakkumauji]

Ok, fine you win Sumia. You can be the canon pairing with Chrom.

 

[BassForever]

I just wanna know why Cynthia is depicted with the Falchion?

Read Lucina's sibling support.

Did you do her supports with Lucina (provided that they are sisters)?

 

[Chet Rippo]

Because she wants to cut that big apple.

Morgan+Sibling doesn't look right either, unless your avatar has the same hair color as your spouse.

You're right totally blanked on that lol

Just wanted to share this. (Not mine)

 

[Laughing Banana]

Daddy's little...... killing monster <3

Give her a pair of Steel Swords and a pair of Fire Tomes and she can clean house *alone* against high-level promoted foes with forged tomes and silver weapons.

Shit's so funny when I send her alone to heavily fortified areas and watch foes crumble in despair.

She is incredibly powerful... and incredibly adorable <33333

Spoiler

I won't marry her to someone else no sirreeee no thank you.

 

[shadyspace]

I let Sumia die so all this Cynthia talk is nonsense

 

[Coffee Dog]

So I just started, is there any way to restart chapters other than closing the game?

Also do supports level as fast from pairing up? Are there any downsides to pairing up?

And are there any beginners tips I should know?

You're just playing a fanfic now.

1. START + L + R
2. Supports level as fast from pairing up? Yes. It's more efficient to level up support with pairing up. Downsides? You have one less party member that can act and whenever you want to separate the two both of them lose a turn at the same time. Generally it is always better to pair up though; sticking someone frail like Lissa to a General can make her withstand attacks that would otherwise kill her. You can also use pair up to make critically wounded unit to safely hide behind a strong unit.
3. Unless you want to utilize DLC maps, pick a group and stick with it. Sticking with a core group that you level up throughout the game will ensure you will be ready down the road compared to spreading experience through all the guys and girls.

Thanks for the help man.

 

[Laughing Banana]

Thanks for the help man.

What I mean by "more efficient" is not that it is faster to do it with pairing up but you can accrue love points without worrying about positioning that much between the two folks you want to make friendlier with each other.

Anyways, have fun man!

The bride DLC can't come soon enough!

Just wanted to share this. (Not mine)

Hehe, that's cute. When I replay the game again as a male avatar, I kinda want to marry them with Tharja. Though it would be cool to marry Anna or Say'ri, as I feel kinda sad that they're children-less. Those three are probably my favorite though.

 

[Laughing Banana]

Hey folks, for future reference, is the only way to put Aether and Ignis together on Morgan like my pic above is for the avatar to marry Lucina?

I can't seem to imagine any other possible scenarios for this, since Morgan automatically takes the class of her mother and the only way her default class to be Tactician so she can get Ignis is from Avatar marrying a Lord/Great Lord?

It's so fun watching her pulling off Aether and Ignis on the same time against an enemy; bonus points if one of them criticals.

Hnnghh, need it!

Also, Say'ri is <3

should work with any female kid that got Aether from Chrom.

So Cythia and Kjelle work fine.

Oh, I don't know that she can reclass into a Tactician/Grandmaster in that case. Hmmm, alright thanks.

A random note: Don't know if I can ever have the will to play as a Female Avatar. Losing Female Morgan as a result is a big no-no....

Damn, this is some Kincaido-Cordelia level thing here with me and Female Morgan, hahaha.
