...it never dawned on me until now that spotpass tiki is essential better than story tiki since she has access to almost every class and their skills XD.
Started a new playthrough and accidently saved over my old playthrough that had like 70+ hours on it. Fuuuuucccckkkk.
Oh well, I can just spend another 70 hours of my life for this game...I guess. >_>

Gives me an excuse to get Galeforce on Inigo, Owain and Brady this time around.

Yeah, Tiki starts as a manakete and requires dragonstones to attack. You can buy them later on in the game.
srsly if I was part of IntSys, I would have given all females the Pegasus Knight and Mercenary lines.
She's guaranteed to get +1 HP.
+2 HP about 20% of the time. (man did I get this right?) lol
Yeah she's a Manakete so she wants Dragonstones or Dragonstones+.
She's missing supports doe.
Not like Story Tiki is any better since she has supports to uhh... 4-5 peeps?
I just had the luckiest turn ever. Waike and Lissa were near each other and on the verge of death and I failed to get them to safety. Eemy phase. An enemy attacks Waike. I'm like "Fuck, he's dead". MISS. Oh god that felt good. He proceeds to kill the enemy. But there's still another enemy in range! Attacks Lissa. Crap. But the Gods were with me and her skill activated. HELL YEAH!
i can't believe it, haha. Right at the end of a stage, too!

What I think is cool about this is it's a more advanced version of StreetPass Hero Quest, with team preparations, selecting orders, attacks, combos, level-ups and pickups.
But it's so much more advanced. It's a bit overwhelming. Had I not had that StreetPass style formative experience I wouldn't have tried to learn the FE mechanics at all.
Also what is up with everyone's horse hoove feet?!

Or at the very least, not have some characters have redundant class options. Being able to be both a Knight and a Cavalier isn't exactly very diverse!
Yep, her HP growth rate is 120%.

A lot can though!
It's the 4th most common class after Wyvern Rider (12! characters) Thief and Myrmidon (9 characters each).
Cavalier, Fighter, Barbarian, Mercenary, and Troubadour are all tied for least common (5 each), unless you count Cleric and Priest separately for some reason.
Obviously all that excludes second-gen characters and special/unique classes.

Long story short, it's a stylistic choice by the devs because they thought they didn't have enough power available to smoothly render the feet (which they later found out they could)

If i recall i think wyvern lords were preety op in past games and i think this game is no exception to that rule.
After a while you will get lots of money mostly from bullions (items dropped from enemies or found in chests etc). At first I also thought that getting lots of money is hard, but after chapter 10 or so I had way more money than I could spend.

It's a pretty decent tree, two breaker skills plus deliverer is a good utility skill. And a Wyvern Lord is basically a less gimpy Great Knight without swords.
I'd have rather seen it more balanced though, it doesn't make much sense for some classes to have around twice as much availability as others. Maybe if you factor in promotions and per-character classes since there are some overlaps it is more balanced, but still far from "perfect."
You need to read more of Kellam's support conversations.

I got the US Fire Emblem 3DS bundle and I just started to play it. I've never played a 3DS game before, so I have some probably-stupid questions.
What is SpotPass? I just beat a chapter and all of a sudden it gave me a bunch of free maps, items and characters (I think). I only redeemed the maps because I'm not sure how to use the characters. How is this different from StreetPass?
Also, the game recently told me that some weapons do extra damage to certain characters. There is a little icon next to the weapons, but I need a chart or something to match up those icons with corresponding types. I already checked the manual.
It's a fun game so far, about 2-3 hours in. I have no idea how some of you are playing for 400-500 hours because it seems like the chapters are pretty short. Is there that much DLC?

Axes beat lances, lances beat swords and swords beat axes.
Spotpass is online, Streetpass is local.
And to see what weapons do extra damage, go up to an enemy with a hero, and next to their names you'll see arrows next to their weapons. If it's pointing up, it'll do more damage. If it's pointing down, it means it's weaker against that weapon.
And there's a lot of chapters. That plus multiple play-throughs make Fire Emblem one of the biggest time sinks ever.
Why do people do multiple playthroughs (other thank higher difficulties)? Different bonds/family stuff? Or different endings?
But yeah, I am currently at 10 hours in Chapter 6 on my first play through (hard), so I will probably play it for a while.
I meant like, after the game tells you bows do a lot of damage to Pegasus Knights, you can see a little icon next to a bow that looks like a Pegasus. Chron has a sword with two little icons next to it but I can't make out which classes they might be.
cuz the game is fun as hell? And yeah, mostly trying out different waifus. It's a game changer with the kids since different parents = may get totally different skills for them to abuse. There are also tons of ways to play a new game by setting your own limits.
See here.

So in this case, Falchion's green mark will deal bonus damage to any unit that has the same green mark.
When I do different playthrough, it's with a higher difficulty. I also lose a lot of heroes my first playthrough, so I want to see if I can do better the second time.
I actually finished Radiant Dawn 3 times. Good times.
Haha, sure. I was just asking because there might have been a more involved reason for 500 hours of playtime instead of just "trying something else" (like different endings that depend on which children you have etc.)

If those icons match other character then you know what it might be weak too. A metal (grey) horse is are stuff like Knights, Generals, Great Knights and the brown horse are mounted units such as Cavaliers, Great Knights and Paladins.
EDIT: Nevermind, someone explained it better
Grinding supports for everybody + maxing all units' stats with all their promoted class skills learned take a while too.

I gave Donnel to Sully.

I gave Donnel to Sully as well. Waste of Donnel's talents.
That's what I did! Their supports are pretty good.
Why a waste? Would there be better pairings for him? And its pretty fun to see that some pairings seem to occur naturally from play. All of the people commenting so far did the same choices as I did. I should just do something else than what the games tricks me into!
See what?
No, Donnel is pretty much THE best husbando for Sully.
dakku just doesn't like the kid Sully produces
y u forget armsthrift? y?
I put Kellam and Miriel together. Their support together was pretty good.
