So how do I make the most of him? Change classes now at level 10 or keep levelling him?
All copies of the game that you play are treated separately.
The latter. You want his other skill.
High growth rate. He's basically the guy who is weaker than average for most of the game, but becomes ridiculously strong later on.
You should level him to 15 before reclassing, because Villagers learn a skill at that level.

Nintendo actually has a tool coming out that lets you transfer cart saves to the digital version, not sure if the other way around is possible though.
Cool, thanks! I'm just glad I didn't waste my time (abd prcious exp!) bringing him into battle.

your router or ISP sucks
ISP. Sucks WAY too much. Slow as hell, also (only 3.5 mb)
Could be worse, but, eh.
EDIT:
Sad, but true. You couldn't have worded it better, my friend.

(Hopefully) I'm getting the game tomorrow (I pre-ordered so they better damn have it >__>), so might as well ask right now. If I want a MU balanced in both strength and magic what should I choose?
Well, he seems to be in Mexico. We don't exactly have what is called a decent internet.

Sounds like AT&T DSL
Either one. I favored magic, but strength is only 4 points behind (late 20s). Unlike most classes which have better chances at increasing one or the other the Avatar's gains are pretty well-rounded, regardless of which you choose.

What's your internet company anyways?
Personally, I always find it hilarious that in commercials they always try to pass the connections as fast. "Wow look at those 5mbs! You'll be surfing the internet at lightspeed!"
Well, I meant what should I choose as his asset and flaw that wouldn't hinder neither his STR and MAG growths?
+Mag and -Luck worked for me. I'm sure +STR and -Luck would also work, but it really depends on whether you plan on using weapons or tomes more.
Normal is what it says on the tin: for newcomers. I personally find it very easy.
Telmex. Would love to change companies, but since I rent where I live, I can't do anything about it since the service comes with the apartment. Axtel would be a choice, for example. A friend of mine was with them until a few days ago (changed where he lived), and 20 mbps aren't too shabby, especially here.
And yes, those commercials are a joke.
EDIT: IT'S HERE!!! TIME TO PLAY!
EDIT2: Also, it's weird. How long until the coins appear in my Club Nintendo account?

I am having way too much fun messing around with the camera + pause function during battles.

Uh... so if I lower the voice volume to nothing, am I going to miss something in some video cutscenes? Because everybody is very chatty in this game.
I've never played a Fire Emblem game before this one, so I went with Normal. From what I've read, it gets a bit more difficult when Promoted classes are introduced, but nothing terribly challenging. I'm on Chapter 6 [just leveling up some of my Warriors in Skirmish's] and am having a great time. It's not "hard", but I still need to be careful not to rush the enemy. Hard Mode, on the other hand, is quite a step up. The ideal difficulty for Normal would be somewhere between Normal/Hard.
I've decided to complete my play-through on Normal, and then use the remaining two save files for my Hard/Lunatic play-throughs. Of course I'll be going Classic all of the way, none of that Casual nonsense.
Out of those two, definitely Normal + Classic. The whole premise of Fire Emblem is to avoid death and the permanent loss of your character. If you do lose one, you have to make the difficult decision of whether to reset your file [and possibly lose an hour of progress] or continue on with the loss. It makes the battles a lot more exciting, and honestly, I can't see it being played any other way.
But that's just my opinion.

What if I'm not exactly a newcomer, but the only FE I've ever managed to beat is Sacred Stones? In every other one I played I always seem to reach a point that just makes me ragequit :| (7 twice, the mission when you recruit Jaffar and Nino, and again near the end. PoR in the ship because fucking criticals and then the 4 part chapter because of the same. SD...well I kinda got bored there).
Axtel would certainly be the best choice if it wasn't as expensive as it is compared to everything else =.=
You mean the fancy cutscenes like in the intro? You can turn on subtitles for those.

Yeah. I don't want to miss important stuff in the fancy cutscenes, but I want everyone to shut up during combat.

So on hard enemies really seem to find the most optimum route to destroying low HP characters huh. I was not ready for them to just blow past dudes to just to get a hit on a character all the way in the back.
Not a bad thing, just something I'll have to get use to. I'm probably a SRPG scrub since I've only played Tactics Advance and what FE was on the GBA.

That's pretty normal for FE. They'll usually target the ones that can't fight back or the ones that they'll deal the most damage too.
Displaying the enemy attack range with X or by highlighting with A is really helpful for seeing if you've got your squishies covered, or you're trying to avoid certain weaknesses.
well if you didn't know, you can change your settings by pressing A on an empty square.
You can adjust sound and opacity of the backgrounds, turn on subtitles, etc.
I also suggest switching from Digital to Analog.

Does disarming Frederick and using him as a meatshield/bait still work here or would they ignore him for statistically weaker units?

Yeah. I saw that. But you can only turn off "story voices" not "combat voices". It's not really a big deal though.

Still works. Let Freddy get into the edge of the enemy's range and let him sponge damage. Just make sure your other units are close by so they can attack the enemy next turn.
Guess so :/
"HYAAAAAAAAH"
"OOOOOOOOH"
"THANKS"
"EEEEEEEEEEEK"

Time to D/L while I sleep and contemplate if my cold is enough for me to call in sick to work tomorrow....>.>
Sounds like Wiggler's getting caught in the Jagen trap. :3

Yeah I'm bad, I must have played on easy mode or something for the GBA ones. Super pumped that this game is actually making me think about my moves though.
