Doesn't matter, the children aren't "set" until you enter the paralogue/side story and get them. So you can S-rank, keep leveling up and getting skills to pass down, then do the side story and get them once it opens up.

Nah it doesn't matter, the kids stats and skills aren't final until you start and finish their map.
Oh, is it? Can't say I knew that!

Man, this is my first strategy game and I am playing on the easy mode for very obviously reasons, and even then I am dying left and right lol.
I don't know how you guys play on the classic and hard modes.

The stats/skill of the child depends on the stats of the parents at the time you enter the paralogue. Also you are free to leave, grind and go back and the game will generate the stats/skill for them again.
Second Seals reclasses units.
Master Seals promotes units
Using a SS on a:
lvl 1-9 base unit - nope, can't.
lvl 10-19 base unit - reclass into another base class
lvl 20 base unit - same as lvl 10-19 and back into the same base class ex. Mercenary -> Mercenary
lvl 1-9 promoted unit - reclass into a base class
lvl 10-19 promoted unit - reclass into another promoted class
lvl 20 promoted unit - same as lvl 10-19 and back into the same promotedclass ex. Hero -> Hero
Unit a MS on a:
lvl 1-9 base unit - nuh uh not allowed
lvl 10-20 - promote ex. Mercenary -> Bow Knight or Hero
Those are the skills my Inigo has + Armsthrift. Rightful King has no place in my set up

Alright, awesome.
I do a lot of the challenges and the side stories.
Also I use chrom and femMC together a lot, but not paired up. Their rank basically allows me to one shot an enemy from time to time. Also recently discovered that chrom paired up with lon qu is a beast.

Well it's more like plan out who you want Chrom to marry by then and work towards it. You don't have to marry him before then.
Rexcalibur and high speed. Good bye, Cordelia.
She can use Rexcalibur too =P

Huh, I don't really see the point of the SS then unless you like a character but hate their class? Do you get to keep their stats?
Also man, so many classes. I'll have to wiki to see what's available.
Rexcalibur and high speed. Good bye, Cordelia.
Who says Cordelia is on her pegasus?
Best Cordelia is Bride Cordelia. No weaknesses, just beauty and sparkles.
And outspeeding Cordelia? You be insane homeslice.
Well except for critical hits and Lunatic Mode, FE is always fair. When you die it's generally due to poor planning on your part
Watch carefully the enemy's movement before moving your own units and watch what class/weapons they use, act accordingly, pair up, and you should be fine
She's still got that flying weakness, even as a Dark Flier.

Her resistance grows slowly, but it's not that bad.
Oh wait, you're assuming she's not a Hero. Why would you do such a silly thing?
It's all about skills. Collect skills from different classes and end in a good class with a good skill combination. You don't really have time to do much by the end of the main game though, you'll probably be reclassing promoted units for the first time once you hit the end if you don't do much/any grinding.
Abuse the pair up. MU has a skill that adds +50% of exp when paired up to the main unit of the pair (so if he/she is in the back, the other unit will get the extra exp)
Plan ahead, check the area the enemies can move (Press X to check the attack area of all enemies, you can mark each one individualy too and it shows in a different color, pink for all of them, red for the ones you mark). You can block their way to your units by placing other units in their path. Be carefull because the opposite can happen, moving a unit to get a kill can give the enemies an opening to get to your healer.
Do not overuse Frederick, he steals exp from other units and needs a lot to get one level while others would get 3-4, so only use him when you really need it. You can give him a weak weapon so he can weaken the enemy, but do not give him any kill.
I'm left with the two characters that can't die. The one you make and Chrom. Let me tell you something, not even I know why I'm torturing myself anymore.
Iote's Shield fixes that. Her final class is a bride anyways =P
Also, the weakness doesn't matter. I block 90% of the attacks that are attempted on her anyways!

You get to keep stats (although class changing with the second seal can result in some stats lowering, while others rising, due to each class having different base stats) and skills. Different classes have different skills and you can add them up by using the second seal.

She definitely has one of the best class options of the parents. She basically has most of the desired skills right there available for her to learn.
I got mine as a reward on chapter 11. Just gotta wait it out a bit.
You can buy them from the Chapter 12 armory, I believe.

She really is the best.
Also, bad speed? I think not!
What?! Look at those stats! How come they're so high?! Is this the only game where you can surpass Level 20?
I also got a bunch of Seals by purchasing them from the randomly generated StreetPass teams
It's cuz she's a Bride (a special class). They don't promote, but cap out at level 30 instead of 20.

I'm so going to make her a lance called "I Love Chrom" next time.
Dancers, Manaketes, Villagers, Taguel, Brides (DLC) and Demon Fighters(DLC) can go to level 30 but can't promote at all.
She's certainly the best red-head.
No, some other games let you go past 20. Circumstantial.
In this game, certain classes like Bride and Dancer can go up to Level 30 to compensate for the fact that they don't promote into anything.

So they get to keep the skill of their? So, let's say I turn Lissa into a dark mage. Can she still use the healing staff?

Radiant Dawn has a third promotion tier, and Cordelia has Limit Break in that picture which raises caps by 10.
No, you're stuck with whatever weapon types that class normally uses, but your stats and existing weapon levels do carry over. They will vary from class to class since different classes have different stat modifiers.
Limit Breaker skill and Brides are a special class that can get to level 30. Other ones that can reach 30 are Dread Fighter, Manakete, Taguel, Dancer, and Villager I think.
You're dead to me.

The caps for this game are much higher than previous games. Even the base classes don't cap at 20 anymore and instead goes up to the high 20s/low 30s.
There's also the skill limit break on her, which raises her caps by another 10 points as well.
here are my old pics of Kjelle and Severa.
.... I should resize them or just get the new updated pics >_>
What's the character limit? "Wants Chrom's D"
but how? All the challenges that turned up for me are like 2-3 levels above my pay grade :T
Using a staff requires the class to have a staff rank, which varies from class to class. Dark Mage can't use staves, so Lissa would lose that ability upon reclassing to Dark Mage, for as long as she is one.
certain classes go up to 30
villiger
manakete
dancer
tagrul
dread fighter dlc and bride dlc
She has the limit breaker skill equiped which add +10 to all stats except hp.
No, since Darkmages can't use staves you can't heal, but you keep all her skills like Renewal (Heals 30% at the begining of the turn). So you can get the best skills from the classes you can access and end up with a really powerfull unit, Check Kincaido's image, Cordelia with Hero's skills (Armshift, Sol), Dark Flyer Skill (Galeforce) and Falcoknight skill (Lancefairy)
It's over exaggerated by the fanbase here. They're all just mad that their waifus are inferior and not as popular.
