So...
Tactician > grandmaster > merc > hero > sorcerer?

So...

Depends if fem av or not. Fem Av you'd probably want Dark Flier as soon as possible, over merc/hero.

 

[ramyeon]

Fem av or male av?

Fem av caster the big skills are galeforce/armsthrift/tomefaire/(ignis/sol). Male av can't get galeforce but you'll replace it with aggressor. The fifth's slot is going to be for limitbreaker when it eventually comes out.

Gettign galeforce on a fem av is a priority so you can pass that skill to Morgan.

Male avatar. What class gives aggressor? Sorry I'm new to this!

You don't need to reclass back to Tactician to go from Hero to Grandmaster. You have access to Grandmaster as a Hero once you reach Level 10.

Oh great thanks a lot

Yeah, femav.

 

[Draxal]

Aggressor and Limitbreaker are dlc only skills. So you're good for a while.

 

[Chrom]

Male avatar. What class gives aggressor? Sorry I'm new to this!

Dread Fighter, a DLC class that you can only get from using a Dread Scroll from the DLC episode Lost Bloodlines 2.

 

[Draxal]

I'm really salty that Cherche and ... thus

Spoiler

Gerome

don't have access to Peg Knight Tree. They would be really great units if hey had it.

 

[Laughing Banana]

Yeah, femav.

You using DLC?

Because if you do I'd actually recommend going to Merc --> Hero --> Dark Flier --> Final as Sorcerer.

Meaning in terms of priority, I would actually recommend Armsthrift + Sol > Galeforce, considering those two will give you much more use than Galeforce, since they can proc during enemy's phase, unlike Galeforce.

Bookmark your post and drop it here every time someone asks that question

Hmmm........

 

[Hours Left]

Gerome

The still are.

Galeforce isn't the end all, be all. It's a really good skill, too good actually. It's pretty broken.

 

[ohlawd]

So what's the req for riding a Pegasus?

Female and a pure heart?

snap then Cherche must be.........

TAINTED. Oh the horror. The deception! The betrayal!

 

[TWILT]

Psh, Cherche and my son Gerome don't need Galeforce to be awesome. They're both always great units in all my playthroughs.

Reason you go Galeforce first, is so you can pass it off to Morgan earlier in the game.

 

[Laughing Banana]

Galeforce isn't the end all, be all. It's a really good skill, too good actually. It's pretty broken.

Well, it won't be too much use in I think in end-of-things DLC since I really doubt there's anything in there that anyone can kill in one shot, so skills that can activate during enemy's phase might be lot more useful by then.

Well, when to get Morgan is relative though; you can get him/her as early as possible or you can get him/her much later. Anyways, hmm, yeah, although I can also see your point. Also note I asked him if he use DLC or not

 

[ffdgh]

They're too inlove with mervykins to cheat on her.

 

[SolarKnight]

Well, why can they become Griffon Riders at all then? D:

Hmmm........

No dlc. Do I need it to go that route?

I would like to go grandmaster first though before going to another class

I've seen things.

So far, my units easily one shot the challenge maps so far.

It's still very much a good skill since it's perfect for hit and run.

Say you need 2 unit chars to kill an enemy unit.

First unit attack hits unit. Ends that units turn. Second unit with galeforce attacks, kills that unit. Galeforce activates. Retreat that unit, use rescue staff on the first unit ending that unit's turn.

She's just too busy being a maid to ride a pegasus.

 

[Chrom]

You definitely don't need DLC to go that route.

 

[ffdgh]

...She happens to have a griffon named minerva based on what she says when she gets 6 stats in a level up?

 

[Laughing Banana]

Ahh I see. Well if you don't intend to use DLC then it is up to you whether to get Galeforce or Armsthrift/Sol first. Draxal is correct that Male Morgan can't get Galeforce so if you are considering in using him, then getting Galeforce first may be a lot wiser.

Hmm, still, I doubt in Lunatic the-end-of-things-DLCs the enemies will give you a lot of leeway using Galeforce. Eehh, not that I don't think Galeforce is a fantastic skill, mind you

 

[ohlawd]

best maid ever, dem thighs and dat back.

 

[Warrior_Keoni]

best maid ever, dem thighs and dat back.

Also the scariest person in the army!

 

[dakkumauji]

Well, why can they become Griffon Riders at all then? D:

With her knitting skills, whose to say she and Gerome didn't just knit a griffon outfit for Minerva!

 

[Laughing Banana]

People saying she's a Maid just because she can sew and do laundry? What, they forget about that large dragon of hers along with that shiny big axe?

She's great though, definitely one of the best females.

 

[SolarKnight]

With her knitting skills, whose to say she and Gerome didn't just knit a griffon outfit for Minerva!

That's just an adorable mental image.

Now somebody draw that.

 

[TWILT]

Mwahaha, I just got Owain to get "Missiletain" this time around.

Spoiler

BY THE GHOST OF IKE.

Also the scariest person in the army!

Also da bess.

 

[Einbroch]

Do you have to do all this min/maxing to beat the game?

 

[SolarKnight]

Do you have to do all this min/maxing to beat the game?

Not at all, it's mainly for the really hard DLC/perfectionists.

 

[Draxal]

Do you have to do all this min/maxing to beat the game?

No, only for the hardest dlc.

 

[dakkumauji]

Do you have to do all this min/maxing to beat the game?

Not one bit.

The last DLC maps, yes. But not for the main story line.

 

[Einbroch]

Good, cause I'm pairing people up with whoever I want and choosing classes that sound cool!

 

[Laughing Banana]

Good, cause I'm pairing people up with whoever I want and choosing classes that sound cool!

Hahahaha. Yeah, for the main game just pair whatever and use whoever. Especially if you are not playing, say, Lunatic.

Min-maxing is just for the crazy DLC enemies

 

[panthapanda]

Alright folks, I need a confirmation. I was grinding mindlessly for about 6 hrs and when I was going to switch to Lissa, I noticed that she wasn't in my party any more. I can't remember if I got her killed right before I started grinding. Anyway I just ignored it because I wasn't willing to go waste 6 hrs for Lissa but then I see she is still in the campaign talking to chrom and friends. I thought she died!

Does that mean she's just unavailable to use for a period of time or even if main characters die, they can still be in the story? I'm on like chapter 21.

 

[Kincaido]

Gotta prepare for dat Anna.

 

[Warrior_Keoni]

Kincaido should waifu this Anna. =P

None of the potential mothers actually die, they just retire and are unusable for the rest of the playthrough.

They can still be in the story. Just can't use in battles anymore and oh that's forever.

 

[Gvaz]

Gotta prepare for dat Anna.

What class is that?

Also wtf 99hp and 232 hit, and 137 avoid. Just what the fuck.

The true goddess of FE.

Merchant, I think.

I'm ready anyway. My Lon'qu!Severa will ravage that ass.

 

[Chrom]

Merchant.

 

[panthapanda]

Well I guess Owain won't be using Galeforce lol. Thanks for the answer. I think what happened was I thought I soft reset the game but didn't and saved over my file.

 

[dakkumauji]

They are finally revolting from all the bad treatment they got in this game.

 

[Laughing Banana]

Huh?

It's not that Lissa is a potential mother, but because she is an important character to the plot that appears in various cutscenes so that she 'retire' instead of 'dead'.

People like Sully, Cherche, Olivia, or Maribelle can be as dead as anyone else.

It's called Strongest One's Name for a very good reason.

People like Sully, Sumia, Cherche, Olivia, or Maribelle can be as dead as anyone else.

Nope, get them killed yourself and see. They'll always say something like "sorry but I can't die here, I have to retreat."

 

[ffdgh]

Gotta prepare for dat Anna.

...wtf I just noticed she has a rightful king+ . I don't recall any enemy getting that on lunatic+

 

[Laughing Banana]

Huhhhh....

Really? I thought wrong then. Themoreyouknow.jpg

...wtf I just noticed she has a rightful king+ . I don't recall any enemy getting that on lunatic+

Just to get that extra 30% of kicking our collective asses, hahaha.

The mothers' 'death' quotes are basically saying they are retreating instead of falling dead right on the spot.
