So I heard growth rates aren't ciphered any more?

where's the growth rates Aveyn Knight

edit: holy shit Gunter is a true Jeigan
 
Man, the marketing for Fates has been a mess/completely misleading.

They always said you had that choice to make,, but now they've finally confirmed that we will be getting both versions, so there is no choice.
Then (major, major story spoilers)
they say it's the choice between the family that raised you vs your blood
.

I assume they haven't fully decided yet how to do the release in NA before this lol. and, there's still a choice to make... by choosing which version instead to get :^)
 
average base growth rates, Awakening vs Fates (assuming the latter is accurate...or even the former lol)

Code:
       Awakening  Fates   Change
HP     49.90      40.51   -9.39
Str    36.94      36.67   -0.27
Mag    24.80      18.12   -6.68
Skl    39.39      39.06   -0.33
Spd    38.88      39.93    1.05
Lck    54.18      40.51  -13.67
Def    33.57      31.52   -2.05
Res    24.18      28.33    4.15
Total 301.84     274.64  -27.20

Notes:
-obviously this doesn't include class growth rates
-in addition to Gunter being a total Jagen, growth rates among characters are generally more variable in Fates
-whereas in Awakening everyone had at least 10% in both strength and magic, this is not close to being the case in Fates; half the characters have sub-10% in one
or both if you're Gunter
, which is why magic took a dive while strength did not

edit: version without Gunter/Fuuga's 50/100 totals

Code:
       Awakening  Fates   Change
HP     49.90      41.19   -8.71
Str    36.94      37.39    0.45
Mag    24.80      18.66   -6.14
Skl    39.39      39.93    0.54
Spd    38.88      41.04    2.16
Lck    54.18      41.19  -12.99
Def    33.57      32.24   -1.33
Res    24.18      28.96    4.78
Total 301.84     280.60  -21.24

Yeah, I know one of the players were complaining about the states being too low on the enemies in lunatic, but that was Awakening stat inflation. This is more normal. Everybody had low luck in the screens that I saw.
 
huh, wow, those average growth rates

amusing we have a Jagen again after all the years

I guess there goes the days where everybody was viable

that's not...what the data says?

the drops are concentrated in HP, magic, and luck, which explains the lower HP (and luck...not that anyone said anything about that) but everything else is more or less the same (I don't think the magic drop is even a real drop among actual magic users either)

The luck and hp drops are substantial (well hp matters much more, but I did notice units having substantially less luck), and it seems like str/mag hybrids are no longer as viable.

HP and luck were also the smallest part of Awakening's stat inflation (see: FE4 HP), and I don't see how obviously physical characters going from 10/15 magic growth to 0/5 affects the true hybrids? It's not like Vaike/Stahl/Gaius/etc. (to name a few) were ever viable for that to begin with.

edit: and the reverse, units like Miriel/Lissa/Maribelle were never going to be physical units anyway, so them having higher strength growths than the likes of Elise/Nyx doesn't really mean anything

edit: removing Gunter bumps Fates' total average by 3.3 LMAO

Well, I think Leon starts with high bases in magic and Str (but I think that's chapter six stats) so you're right it doesn't effect the true hybrids, it does effect the genetics in this game, where it had zero effect in Awakening.

I'll be honest I was just shocked when I saw many units with 4-5 luck in this game. Do you have any information on the base stats? They looked about the same for this game.


Man, I'm still bummed about the Nohr supports, really killed my hype for this game.

edit.

So after removing Gunter, the rates between the two games are even less significant, are there any other big outliers?

Fuuga has a total of 100 (who's that? it's listed in the other/unknown section on Serenes)

if we were to remove that, it bumps Fates' average another 2.66, up to 280.60

edit: lol at the hamayama stream and the Takumi hatetrain/memes
 
ahh, the Hoshido class growths are up

those really are lower across the board...except for resistance (and luck because there actually are luck class growths lol)

the majority of the drop is in HP, which got absolutely hammered...that explains the HP values

edit: Azura has a 25% HP growth including the class growth (which is 0% anyway), that's why her HP is utter shit
 
it's going to be weird to come off Awakening and see lower stats all across the board

and also to not get a +6 in level ups anymore haha

I mean someone fucking ruined the story for me in the other thread so.

I'm sorry to hear that. I was sleeping when those spoilers were full game so I luckily didn't have a chance to read it yet.

I thought I made it clear in the OP where the fine lines were in terms of spoilers and support discussion but I guess I was wrong. Some people just want to ruin the game for others I guess.

I hope other elements make up for that one spoiler and you still do thoroughly enjoy the game when you get it.

I mean it's not a big deal I don't care allll that much about the story (
though I will bitch out when it comes time to murder your family from the other version of whichever one you're playing happens)
.

It was just something that happened. No biggy. I'll still play both and love the shit out of them because according to Famitsu the map design, in Nohr especially, is reminiscent of Holy War and OH MY GOD TAKE MY MONEY.

Ah, so I wasn't crazy when the players Hoshidan stats looks really poor (didn't have access to the Nohr stream).
 
I don't know if less growth on HP is a good thing, in one of my RD playthrough, Micaiah got screwed in HP so hard that she gets one hit ko by anything, anyway, we'll see.

I saw that map design are way better, for those who saw a lot of these streams, how good it is ? (my favorite map design in the series is probably Radiant Dawn mostly except part 4)

Also at Gunther, it's good to have a Jeigan sometimes.
 
let's have some fun here (not touching the kids or characters we didn't know about beforehand)

Xander: 55/65/5/50/45/75/50/25=370

average of these minus Gunther: 50/49.05/23.51/54.05/55.68/49.05/39.19/37.57=358.11 (yes I realize this is .01 off)
average of higher attacking stat: 56.89

summary:
HP might be the lowest in the series? (someone will have to check FE1-5, but I think so)
effective strength/magic (i.e. dump stats don't count) is roughly on par with Awakening
skill/speed/defense is between Tellius and Awakening
luck is RD level
resistance is the highest it's ever been
 
Skills spoilers !

Galeforce got nerfed ! "So many nerfs too. Galeforce can't trigger if you use Attack or Guard Stance.
Aptitude only boosts growths by 10%."

I welcome this.

Can we keep the spoilers to the OT like was suggested before? I know they're being tagged but all it takes is one broken tag and the game could be ruined for some of us.

Hey guys this is silly but i'm doing a Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance playthrough with text to speech voice acting added to it. hahah cheesy but it seems kinda cool.

https://youtu.be/AJfDDdwIOxE

The audio levels are pretty wacky, but i just learned how to use adobe premiere last night.

This is a labor of love, so i hope the quality will improve with more experience. Enjoy :D

p.s i had no one else to share this with besides my gaf family !
 
Not 8-4?

:/

Would this make the supposed censorship even worse since Nintendo is doing the job? Though if they wanted to cut back it won't matter which firm handles it.

not 8-4

asked johntv about that and he said they weren't working on it

so rip all the scandalous stuff and probably a bunch of other things

Hey all, just a question.

Does anyone think there could be enough interest to have an OT for Fire Emblem Cipher? I'd personally love to see one, but what does everyone else think?

Don't think there would be enough traffic and the people that would be interested post here anyway.

The same sex marriage confessions are sooooo god damn cute.

They are - I'm ashamed that the acknowledgement of fictional anime bisexuals could make me so disgustingly happy.

While the limited selection of partners and unfortunate implications regarding the correlation of heteronormativity and sanity are regrettable, it's still a notable step forward for the series; and one I was fairly sure they'd never make. And what's really important is that Fire Emblem legalised same-sex marriage before Australia.

Here's all the hair styles for male and female Kamui

Most of the male ones are awful; but there's a few which could work depending on what kind of facial features / facial hair options are available. I'm assuming that this is still the default, medium-sized build for both avatars?
