Sorry for my #FE spam. I've had quite the obsession with this game since the release is very close.
I'm working on some extra stuff for people who follow the OT in Photoshop/Illustrator, if anyone wants avatars of toi8 Fire Emblem artwork let me know.

I also won't be doing any gifs but I will have a section for EVERY trailer for the game. I might also translate the Dear Witch Iroha manga that Barry Goodman in #FE is obsessed with. That and Masquerader: Thunderbolt Fang.

Genei Ibunroku #FE Import Thread is up and ready for anyone who wants to fix some misconceptions and some mostly accurate information before the launch.

 

[theprodigy]

For FE15 they should have a female lord named Daisy, so eventually we can say Daisy is now playable in Smash

 

[Golnei]

Wouldn't that go against the current policy of pretending FE4 never existed?

Uh....

I think I missed something.

Daisy is the substitute character for Patty if Briggid wasn't paired up

EDIT: Wait, I'm really confused. I think I'm missing something too

Nope you got it.

 

[L95]

Gah, Patty cam to my mind, but then I remembered she was named Patty, not daisy lol

Well, there is a character in Fates named Arthur, despite the fact Arthur the legacy character is in Awakening >.>

Looks like you don't have to go to comiket to get the 25th anniversary concert dvd

Also, CD Fire Emblem Best Collection Series Fire Emblem: Awakening OST(Pre-order)

Took the plunge on the DVD (hoping that the Cipher card comes with it), which I think it does from looking at the Comiket pricing.

The worst part is not knowing what will get cut.
I mean, I'm getting it regardless, but still, it'd help to temper my expectations.

They'd just change her name to something like Samaranthine or something along those lines in the NA version.

Thread talking about the new game explain video done for chapter 5.

Also pulled my first SR+ today, Flora.

New “My Castle” area allows you to interact with your allies and build stronger relationships.

Pretty sure this means they're keeping...you know what.

Well, the barracks conversations wouldn't be removed (the ones that you can talk to when they're randomly in the base). I wouldn't take this is a confirmation yet.

[Golnei]

Unless they patch all of the interaction mechanics to be compatible with amiibo, I really don't care what they cut.

 

[Chrom]

That is a fair point. Even so, I would like to think that it wouldn't be just barracks conversations if they're bullet pointing it as a feature on the list. I'd wager it's the whole shebang.

 

[Weebos]

I doubt they're going to cut the face rub station. There is (surprisingly) weirder stuff in the game.

 

[theprodigy]

Fates isn't canon, there's no Smash Bros option in chapter 6



edit: on a more serious note, while Elise doesn't sound like a brat like in the Smash Bros trailer, something still feels off (and it's not about being too high-pitched; characters like Viridi are even higher and sound fine)

Sakura and Mikoto sound great

Spoiler

can we bring back #BlameTakumi yet

 

[spiritfox]

If you have Smash installed in your 3DS it'll show up as the 4th option. Choosing that will delete your Fates game, and destroy your cart / remove your digital license.

I wish.

I always wanted Yoko Taro to work with Nintendo on something. If they keep collaborating with external writers, maybe he'll have a shot at FE15.

A Yoko Taro FE would be amazing.

Imagine if Yoko Taro did Fates

Azura is going to be the final rhythm boss fighting dragon Corrin

 

[kagamin]

This is probably a better place to ask for FE If help than the import OT right? lol

You can try : P

I think I'm subscribed to both.

yes, the import OT is basically dead lol

also it's Fates now

WELL THEN!

I really don't like books with script dumps. If I want to read the script, I'd play the game

or read it on my site

.

Mainly, I want the book for collecting purposes and because the official/concept art is nice.

 

[Draxal]

I"m not surprised. There was no Sakura on the cover.

Ok, so I'll bite on asking for some Fates advice now then. I'm playing Conquest on Lunatic Classic right now and am on Chapter 10, are there any recommended levels for characters right now or general advice? Furthest I've made it was 10 turns with heavy casualties and then the enemy took the tiles on turn 11 (and 9 turns with no casualties and enemies took the tiles on turn 10).

 

[Golnei]

They will be.

At least before it was only Marth - neither being in the first #FE is some consolation, at least.

Season's greetings from Ylisse.

I dunno what level or class your Corrin is, but don't be afraid to have your highest level units kill a lot of stuff, also remember that the best defense is a good offense, so try to clear out enemies as they come rather than waiting until they're halfway across the map

(on a side note, I'd like to point out that prior to the Smash Bros reveal, the top google search result for 'Corrin' was a random wikipedia article about some chemical compound)

edit: actually....which English names are officially confirmed?

Like theprodigy said, for your general strategy, clearing out enemies is your best bet. In fact, I'm told there are ways to take down the boss before things go to Hell. I'm assuming you aren't going to even try figuring out how to pull that off though. Don't know how to pull it off myself.

Aside from that, some tips:

• Don't be afraid to use Tonics. They don't cost that much and might just give you the extra edge you need.
• The Freeze staff can be handy for the Paired-Up Pegasus Knights, giving you a little extra breathing room. Just...don't attack them afterwards like I did. Freeze only affects the lead unit, meaning the other'll be free to move if you do that. I still won (So lucky Azura was just in reach of Zero), but I'd rather you not waste a Freeze staff like that. >.>
• Didn't need to myself, but if you're really having trouble and you're desperate, consider promoting Luna and giving her a bow. It'll gimp her in the long run, but you won't be running anywhere if you're stuck here.
• Last but not least, pray hard enough and maybe you'll finally dodge one attack in this game. Pray really hard and Elise'll dodge everything the enemy Ninjas I forgot about throw at her on the last turn. <3

 

[kagamin]

Hmmm, now that I think about it... my Joker/Jacob could probably take Takumi and Hinata no problem if I destroy the wall fast enough, I'll give it a try thanks for the info ^_^ (btw I dunno if I it was a bad idea, but my class focus for my avatar was Ninja, with Str as my strong growth and HP as my weaker growth).
