I keep forgetting the next FE is technically a console game.
Kind of exciting to think about it.

Filthy lies, from a Nohr cur. There is no such thing as mobile FE
None!
On topic: I'm replaying Shadow Dragon and the growths are ridiculous. Still doesn't stop Martha from stomping everywhere

The My Castle suffered from the same issue that pretty much all optional content from Fates does - although they attempt to introduce them like they're story relevant, they're clearly separate from the actual story.
It's even the little things - Fates' battles are mostly episodic, so they easily could have written the campaign with a less urgent tone, but they just didn't, and even write lines about the party needing to find places to rest and being tired from traveling. There's just a big disconnect between the story and the gameplay systems build around it - likely the biggest one ever in Fire Emblem.

What? Are you playing on normal or something cause Marth sucks on higher difficulties.
Martha: Might - 13, Rank - Prf, 85% Acc, 1-2 Rng, 15% Crt. Effective against Batman units.

What if they made the avatar or lord the Jeigan to trick people into realizing how good they are
A real jeigan with terrible growths, mind you. Let MU be FE6 Marcus.

As long as the MU is not mandatory in every chapter.

I bet people would complain about how terrible it is that your lord falls off halfway through the game.

How far from endgame? I don't tend to use DLC classes but I guess on paper you can use the Lodestar for Ryoma to get Speedtaker and then go back to Swordmaster for the avoid boost, I think it'd be like 90~ avoid (oh and +10 from Raijinto for 100~) with Speedtaker for a level 20 Ryoma (w/ 4 levels in Lodestar). Of course I don't even know if that's worthwhile depending on how far you are. Just curbstomp everything as is I guess?

This, so much. It's the only time I felt dual screens were really useful. Fire Emblem on DS systems was fantastic

Ryoma seems like a good choice.
A female Swordmaster or similar dodgy class would benefit from Great Lord as well. Awakening can be useful when it kicks in.
I always give them to me and my waifu though XD

"I don't really believe in waifus anyway"-Aveyn Knight earlier in 2016
Anyway, the Exalt/Hero brands are a lot better when used on unpromoted units because of the promoted class bases, particularly since neither of these two are mounted or do anything special otherwise...Lodestar feels really pointless in Birthright since nobody really needs speed but I guess you can make any girl on the front lines a lot a Great Lord temporarily for Aether/Awakening.

New Saizo and Kagero by Mayo!
Kagero.... wow.... yessss..... and why is she always shipped with Saizo???? Wait, uhhhhh... I'm new to the community so if shipping stuff isn't allowed then ignore I said that. Lol
They're both retainers of Ryoma and its a Ryoma set, people ship whatever they want.
I mean, they have a past relationship, which is pretty fertile ground for shipping.

kagerou's pose is a bit off. is she dancing?
The first skill on her card is a reference to kagura dancing, so I believe so.

Jailbait by Kaoru Hagiya.
Hahahah why do you say jailbait?
Since the card hasn't been localised, she's still presumably 15/16.

On that note, we don't even have "canon" ages for any Fates characters do we?
kuroneko0509

oh. had to search what is kagura dance. not quite familiar to this one
don't think so.
probably we'll get those when intsys finally decided to release artbook

Finally beat Birthright, moved on to Conquest.
I was bound and determined to get a complete support log for each path (I have over 100 hours clocked in Birthright because of that), and I guess I still am. I caved and bought the EXP map because goddamn, some units are squishy as fuck (looking at YOU, Odin). DLC's the only way to support grind, and since the pre-Awakening DLC is the shortest, I'm guessing that would be the best map to grind over and over for supports. If anyone has a different DLC map suggestion, lay it on me.

The Gold DLC is better for grinding supports in my Opinion
How do we know she's 16 in that picture? For all we know the card could depict her age in the super awesome spinoff "Lyn's Rebellion" which takes place 6-7 years after FE7 in a game that doesn't exist.
EDIT: The Kagerou card unbelievably thicc, goddamn

I support grind in visitor castle battles. Just find one that says "Easy Seize" or something and hope there are some units without ranged options, then just hit them from afar.
Be aware there's a 3 support point limit per map (which isn't enough to build most B or higher supports), so you should move on after several hits.

Well, this is news to me and I have 200 hours in Fates.
Good thing I haven't really been support grinding though.

I would use castle battles to support grind, especially cause permadeath is disabled even on classic mode
The card implicitly depicts her at FE7 endgame, since the quote on the card is derived from her battle conversation with Nergal.

With a New 3DS XL you can...uh...play Xenoblade on the go?
Also Lunatic+ you're such a stupid difficulty, but at least I'm done with the hard part.

Where'd ya see that...
Oh. Ahem, if anyone gets the SR+ and doesn't want it, let me know. I will make peace with my wallet.
Examine the second clear file with a magnifying glass.
Battery life and standby mode are better, but I would suggest to just save your money and wait for the Switch. And I think they would port/remake one of the older FEs before they would do Fates.

Yar, I noticed. Hence my "oh" : )
Maybe I should have went "OH".
That was pretty sneaky of them though...

Some games run better on the New 3ds (Smash has shorter loading to start or stop the game since it doesn't shut down the OS, Codename STEAM can make the enemy turns go even faster), and there's also the Amiibo reader if you care about that, since it's a separate accessory in the old one, but a built in function of the New 3ds.

How long does it take for the Risen/merchant Annas to shuffle around on the world map in Awakening?
Aveyn Knight
Member
Hmm, I did some research years ago, but dunno where I put it...
From what I remember, it was an easy number to remember. Maybe 6 hours between playtime or something. Or 12 (but that seems a bit long)?

Less important Awakening question: you know how for FE12 you have the probabilities for How's Everyone items? What about the probabilities for Awakening's version of it?
