I kept battle animations off most of the time too, even though this game has pretty good ones.

I think Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn's slow animations (and even map animations) just got to me. I'm so glad Radiant Dawn added a real "Off" animation after beating it or I probably wouldn't bother with a 2nd playthrough.

Sad thing is, by skipping so many battle animations, I no longer get attached to the battle music. This is especially sad in Radiant Dawn and this game where the battle music changes fairly frequently : (

 

[Aexact]

First thing I did when I started the game was turn off animations. It was kinda an automatic reaction so I didn't realize the flair they added with battle dialogue and displaying the support bonuses (thought they were still invisible).

It was delightfully flashy. But back to no animations.
Too bad skip enemy turn causes the battle music to go dark though.

Oh, good to know! I didn't know that Radiant Dawn had battle music shift, I thought it was a new thing to Awakening.

 

[dakkumauji]

I usually have animation on expect when I'm grinding.

Watching the enemy throw their tomahawks and spears and either missing or not doing anything gets old fast.

 

[The Awesomest]

Oh, good to know! I didn't know that Radiant Dawn had battle music shift, I thought it was a new thing to Awakening.

It didn't. I think he just meant that he missed all the battle music in RD and there was a lot of it to miss.

Although, it did sort of have a precursor to Awakening's battle music shift. When you start a conversation with a final boss like Jarod or Ludveck, a little percussion thing would play, and once the battle started it would expand into a full battle song.

Like this would transition into this.

 

[ohlawd]

I only turn on animations with new DLC since most of the time, there's new music. Just on that one occasion though. I turn it off after a second battle.

The animations in this game is teh suck.

 

[ffdgh]

I hold L to skip the battles or just press start for grinding.

Lethality looks pretty cool when you are on a wyvern. :x

A manakete with lethality looks just as good.

 

[Jintor]

Lethality just looks baller no matter what way you slice it

 

[ffdgh]

If I had to pick a favorite Lethality, It would have to be taguels version. Side step side step death.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Lunatic broke me on animations.

No Frederick I do not want to see you killed by a hammer for the 20th time.

I like to pretend this is what happens.

 

[Draxal]

Lethality is best when Noire does her laugh with a longbow.

 

[Kincaido]

Lethality is so good. I keep Astra though since it usually gets the job done.

Am I missing something here? What the hell is Lethality?

 

[McNum]

Wouldn't Lethality be superior in maps where you fight enemies with Counter? I mean, yes, it doesn't activate nearly as much, but when it does, you just kill the enemy. Can't Counter instant death.

Or does it just do 99 damage like a Recover staff heals for 99?

 

[Shahadan]

Assassin skill. One hit ko.

 

[ohlawd]

Skill learned by lvl 5 Assassins.

Skill/4 proc rate. Instant death with a sick animation.

Well the skill activation is pretty low, so you'll either one shot them or get one shoted by yourself.

And, if they have Miracle? wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

 

[TWILT]

Lethality looks so awesome.

That activation chance though ugh. >:

Just get astra first.

Huh, Miracle vs. Lethality? What happens? Awesome effect, but the enemy is still standing with 1 HP?

I need to get Lethality for someone...

Pretty much.

It's also silly seeing a Lethality hit critical too.

"I'LL KILL YOU TWICE!"

I don't think I'll ever turn off animations. Too fun.

 

[Jintor]

I only turn them on for Streetpass teams.

 

[Gvaz]

at like 60~ skill that's a nice percentage chance tho

 

[ohlawd]

Isn't that like the worst time to turn them on?

Generic models, generic models everywhere!

at like 60~ skill that's a nice percentage chance tho

That's still 15%.

But Lucina can make it kinda work with Rightful King. 25% now, that's.... pretty good?

 

[Busaiku]

Frederick's critical/lethality quote is the best.

It's just aether is a million times better with a higher chance of activation.

Nah man, I mean if I'm killing some other dude's tactician.

Or if I'm (and I usually am) forcing characters to kill themselves. I AM THE SHADOW, THE TRUE SELF

 

[ohlawd]

I really don't like the /2 Aether has but of course it has that, the dang skill has Sol (S class tier) and Luna (B class normally, S+++ in its final form) together.

Oh shoot, Streetpass teams.

I read Spotpass :/

 

[blue_phazon]

I just created the cheapest character thus far (just finished chapter 16): Owain as Swordsmaster + 2 Killing Edges (60 in total) + Maxed out critical hit ratio for both. Bahaha he just mows through shit.

He's also my favourite character so far in terms of personality. SWORD-HAND DOWN!!!

 

[nintendoman58]

Well crap. I guess I should change Say'ri's class then.

 

[ohlawd]

HNNNNNNNNNG that Chihaya avy.

Anyone can cheese through enemies with maxed out crit weapons

I'm almost finished with the story and only have 3 kids ;_;

Lucina is shitting on Chrom so bad. He was level 8 Great Lord and she was already outdamaging him when she first promoted to GL from level 20 Lord

Don't even talk about Morgan

Inigo is too busy getting admonished by Lon'qu

Their supports in Harvest Scramble is even better.

 

[Hours Left]

Maybe I'm a bad person, but I find Severa intolerable. They could have written a character who had Mommy issues a little better than as an angry 5 year old in an adult's body, but I guess there was some trope they were after. Fact is, she whines more about her Mom saying Chrom than her Mom ever actually says Chrom. It sucks because she's a strong character with fun animations that I like to use. Cordelia is a better character, and I thought her hookup with Gaius in my game was nice.

She's the only character in the game that I actually dislike. She is truly awful.

So, is it fair to say if gay marriage was an option in Awakening Lon'qu would be the majority's choice to get gay married?

Not for me. He'd be near the bottom of my list. (Though they actually touch on this in Vaike and Lon'qu's Harvest Scramble convo. It made me love Vaike even more.) But there are a plethora of much better husbandos than Lon'qu IMO.

Frederick, Chrom, Basilio, Vaike, Gregor, Owain, Yarne, Stahl,

Here's one thing to know about Lethality. If you proc Lethality and the enemy procs Miracle and also has Counter... congrats! You just committed suicide!

 

[toastyToast]

My MU doesn't gain any stats the unpromoted classes now (except for res), am I supposed to cycle through the promoted classes now to improve my stats? I'd rather just settle on one at this point. Maybe Grandmaster
