Even enemies with 3 HP manage to kill him..
Actually, even an enemy with 1 HP managed to kill him at some point due to a miss.
Donnel's not supposed to get hit.
Have him pick off stragglers with the help of someone like Frederick to get him the experience he needs.
1. Pair him up with a strong melee partner like Vaike/Frederick (preferred usage of Fred)/Kellam.
2. Forge him a weapon (a bronze lance/log) will be very cheap to forge and increase the mt of it.
3. Last hit with him while keeping him protected.
Forge him a weapon, pair him up with a unit with high def, invest some tonics on him, give your other units weak weapons so they can attack without killing, let him deal the finishing blow. Reclass at level 10 or 15 to mercenary, watch god wake up.

Pair him with kellam. He supports with him plus thanks to Kellam being a knight, he gets big stat increases in strength and defense.

Build 2, face 4 and voice 3 for male av is perfect. He looks and sounds like he doesn't give a fuck about anything.
Also wow. Lunatic is pretty lunatic.

There's going to be better heroes than her (Inigo/Severa especially if married off to Stahl/Lon'Qu/or Avatar), but she's going to be the best Falcon Knight (Well Severa would be better but you're wasting her). She's probably the best flier that you want to remain as a flier.

Quick question about mission 6:
Am I supposed to kill the rogue who's all like "oh I dun wanna do this"?
Most named enemies that aren't bosses are typically recruitable.
edit: On harder difficulties, enemies should have higher stats, correct? If so, then I suppose characters you recruit from the enemy side get stronger on harder difficulties, correct? Only their base stats, of course.
HELL NO
If there's a non-boss enemy character with a unique name/portrait (double points if they express disinterest in battle), talk to them with Chrom to recruit them.

All the characters after Cordelia (I think) have higher stats on harder difficulty modes. Not just the recruited enemies.
I see, that's great. I remember the GBA Fire Emblems only made the recruitable enemies better, which made them well needed.

Hahahah I've killed them all so far.
I think Gauis is the first one, unless you missed recruiting Kellam somehow.
There are only a couple others too, one of which is so extremely blatantly obvious that I forgot about it last time I mentioned this.
Hahahah I've killed them all so far.
Actually, the thief in chapter 6 is the first enemy you can recruit.

Is it bad that I killed him? I already saved after finishing that battle..
You can always reclass/find another thief. There aren't that many chests/doors so you should be able to just bait the enemy thieves to open them and then kill the thieves to gain their item. There are some chest keys and door keys as well until you can find a thief.
Eventually you will get Anna in a paralogue mission (paralogue 4 I think), who's a pretty good healer / thief / attacker utility class. You can use her to open chests / doors, etc.
I remember when the importers first discovered this.

Avoid killing Tharja in Chaper 9 (there's already enough people doing that)
She will attack you if you get in her space unless you can fly Chrom over to talk with her to join your side.
The tutorial gives you some info and pointers on what to do (pairing up and stuff so I guess pay attention to those in the beginning).
Pay attention to the info they give you on the enemy (what skills and weapons and range they have etc) to make sure you're able to fight them.
Also, choose your waifu/husbando carefully...it's gonna be on the test.
Thanks, but I thought you could repeat the maps as much as you wanted?

Yeah, there's no limit on the DLC, or the spotpass characters. So you can use them to grind for stats/support/rewards.

Tharja is pretty awesome.

I can only think of a few maps with villagers and all three give you rewards based on the number that survive.
In the first paralogue with villagers - it has three - you really only need to save one to get the main reward (seraph robe). In the other two you want to save all of them since you get pretty decent rewards per villager.

That was what I just played. I was heading towards the village itself before I noticed the three villagers were moving towards the enemies.
They suicided for me in that side story, except for the first one. I thought I missed out on good items since I only got the robe.

Starting up my lunatic run soon. Spoilers for unit names and marriages, in case people care:
Planning marriages and stuff with Female Avatar; I suspect Vaike->Gerome-> Morgan results in the highest strength Male Morgan, but what about on the magic side? Brady? Also, how does Rightful King from either Chrom or Chrom->Inigo stack up?

Hm, I am so going to run out of Second Seals before I unlock the shop that sells them. Got four left, and two of those say Nowi and Donnel. Leaving Cordelia, Sumia, Lucina, Kellam, Tharja, and more to fight over the last two.
Never did figure out what to do with Lucina, anyway. Pegasus Knight? Having her benched seems like a waste...
Sumia went straight to Dark Flier. Couldn't see what else she wanted. Plenty of things in the advanced classes for her, though. And I got it wrong with Sully, she can't get Knight, only Myrmidon and Wyvern Rider. Wyvern Rider seems interesting, except she can't use her lance skills there. Myrmidon Sully...? I'm not seeing it.
Also the Risen are camping the Master Seal store. Guess I'll have to clean that one out.

Just make Lucina a Great Lord, is not like you need galeforce for the main game. As a great lord she should be able to finish the game with no much help other than a pair up. Same for Chrom. Also Myrmidon Sully for astra. Then go back to whatever class she was.

I changed him into his father's class (Virion), so an archer and then sniper. Never seen someone's skill reach such high numbers.

Reclass for skills at least, taguel isn't as good as manakete though so you might end up liking him better in another class.
I've heard he makes a good berserker, especially with a good father.
oh, thanks for the information. His father is the equally awesome Gregor for me, I guess I'll do something relating to that.

If you want, use two Second Seals to get him into Thief and right back out so he learns Lockpick without having to be a Thief. Bam, instant combat Thief.

You'll still have to raise him to level 10 before second sealing him the second time.
