When does revelations go up?

Is it possible to choose skills? I just get them when leveling up, without choosing
Probably check at noon EST when the eShop updates.
You can buy skills from people online off of units you share if you defeat them in battle.
Or you can class change and learn new skills from said classes.
Chapter 18 was RNG hijinx. First I get Leo basically dodging everything like he's Piccolo's apprentice and surviving several assaults he absolutely should have died to, getting freaking amazing level ups and just generally being the god he is. Then after beating every single enemy on the map and the reinforcements, Selena decides to miss a 90% attack and the boss triggered Vengeance and one-shot killed her at full HP. Strategy game AAA+ ladies and gentlemen.
I feel like the Fire Emblem theme should start playing whenever moments like these happen. It just summarizes perfectly what this franchise is all about. To rub salt in the wound I got shitty level ups on my subsequent run and reseted halfway through because FUCK YOU RNG I AIN'T YOUR BITCH.
Anyway, I dont usually care much about child characters in general
but Midori is just the most adorable thing. Too bad my main team is already too crowded as it is so I dont really plan on using the offspring units.

this is what casual is for. I could have done it on classic, but it's just too much time spent restarting due to bs like that, as well as my own dumb mistakes.

I'm playing on Casual, Normal. I dont have a problem until the reinforcements start pouring in after I get near Azama. I think like 6-8 Kinshi Knights appeared in one turn because I had units close to both Azam and Setsuna. I misjudged and had Xander one tile too close and fell victim to Azama's hex rod. He took out 3-4 enemies but fell at the end. Then I basically just died to the swarm.
I think I used the dragon veins too early and I should save them for the later reinforcements like you suggest. I think I'll send some of my weakest units to bait Azama's hex rod. Basically make 3 sacrifices until he's out.

Thanks for the tips! I spent nearly an hour last night only to lose so I needed to walk away from it for a bit lol
I had Corrin marry Rinkah in Birthright. They were the only two characters that reached S-rank support when I finished the game. Did not go for any of the children either. I plan on getting at least one more couple when I go through my run of Conquest. Since I'm still playing the game with the training wheels on (aka Phoenix Mode), I'm more interested in the story and how the characters interact vs. overall strategy.
I liked Rinkah. Her arc with Corrin is worked because they refer to how they met each other at the beginning of the game a few times. Since she's such a closed off character, it's fun seeing her slowly open up. I think there were a few C and B rank conversations that played on her lack of etiquette and using proper utensils.

Finally got Keaton on my team. Time for them Werewolf babies.
Been seeing more of Jakob's supports with people and wow does he have a fucking sharp tongue with people.

Yeah, Jakob has the best battle lines.

I dunno man, it's hard to beat Kiragi's "WAR IS HECK!"
I'm going to break you is the best crit quote, too bad my Felicia can't crit anymore with her Flame shuriken though.
You're able to get all the kids but not all of their supports.

Did any more reviews for Revelation come out?
Curious, is there a reason for this? I know that Revelation adds more supports between Nohr and Conquest characters, but does it also remove some exclusive ones?
Nope, remember Corrin can s rank with every character in the game, but can only s rank one character at a time. Kids aren't excluded from this.
Oh right, I forgot about S rank supports. Thanks for clarifying!
I still prefer playing on Classic all things considered because of the added tension to every single one of your moves. Also, I feel like I'm a better player now than I would be if I gave in to Casual. I'd probably be one of the people wondering "how are you even supposed to clear this map without losing anyone?" if I played on Casual because the punishment isn't as harsh so I'd resort to "meat shield" tactics and so on, while Classic mode makes me go "aah, so this is how you do it!" and it feels very rewarding. I know I could just pretend to be playing Classic and resetting nevetheless, but without the game enforcing it on me it just cuts any sort of tension since I know for a fact that I have a safety net to fall back on. Fire Emblem mechanics and design choices in general just feels more balanced towards classic.
It's just the crits and luck-based skills that equals an auto-kill that I can't get behind. It feels cheap when the enemy does it and it still feels cheap when you do it
(can also be a nuisance like when I had perfectly planned how to kill a boss while sharing the exp in the most effective way possible between my units and then Camilla just goes there and crits him, good job breaking it hero)

how do you access the log book this time? Was thinking of grabbing my conquest characters to mess around
Talk to the maid/butler at your castle.
Pretty much. Jakob even has a combat dialogue where he mouths off at Frederick in the Awakening DLC.

Just beat conquest hard/classic no character losses. Man that final chapter was intense
Wait what? I went to my museum/gallery building whenever I wanted to re-read support logs.
What can I do in the card store? I've unlocked it and decided to build it since the other available buildings didn't seem all that interesting, but I'm kind of stuck unable to read the whole description so what I think I got is that you can recruit units in there (but only for castle battles, I guess).
I don't think that's entirely true. Enemies with a chance to crit or high damage skills have targets on their backs, they are the one we want to defeat before they have a chance to start anything. We want to play around their range limits if they have any or use a unit we know can tank or avoid a crit/the skill to weaken them for someone else to finish off, or maybe we just want everyone to back off for a turn. They can force us to choose the order we attack and the positions we leave a unit in very carefully if that enemy isn't alone.
These things can be played around unless we have some really, really bad luck.
Jakob is mean and hilarious. Would S-rank if I was not committing mortal sins.

Why is Lilith so useless? She never heals anyone.

are you in her range? Depending on where you position her temple, you might never get any use from her

She does move right? I put her in an area where I knew units would be fighting, but she doesn't heal anyone.
She is super usefull
when she is maxed
as an enemy
to grind supports easy
on conquest
...unless is angry Lilith which has attack instead of heals
She doesn't move AFAIK. I've only seen her do anything in Conquest, where she fought units without any kind of battle animation (it's like when units have scripted fights where they bump into each other and one of them takes damage). Even then, she only attacks enemies that come into her attack range and goes back to her shrine afterwards.
I was wondering about that. I need to place the temple in a more strategic location. I've been hoarding certain buildings in a corner or where they look nice. She is a healer in Birthright but offensive in Conquest. No idea about Revelation because I only finished one chapter in that path.
I've seen one Lilith that had both a staff and a breath in her inventory, so I guess that one was from Revelation

Man after Elise going back to having Sakura as my healer in Revelation feels like going from a piece of paper to a tank. Sakura has more durability than some of your early combat units.
Also hype af for Priestess Sakura with a Shining Bow, that sounds so ridiculously good.

Can you make that possible with the Museum DLC?

Sorry, maybe I'm dense, but I don't understand what this means. Why can't you potentially get every support in Revelations through replays?

I haven't bought any DLC so I have no idea, I'm assuming I can get one in Revelation though.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Jakob throws shade better than he does shurikens
Without going into spoilers there are at least two characters that you can't support in Revelations that you could in the other routes, depending on which route you played.

Chapter 19 Conquest Hard, it's not really hard since I used
I paired him up with Corrin, now Conquest is literally Keaton Emblem: Xander-quest
Peri with a Beast Killer + Vantage. At least she got 8 level ups that chapter.

Getting close to the end (I think?) of Birthright. I don't think I'll have the desire to play though all of Conquest before Revelations. If I keep going after the end, I think I'll just do the Revelations path and call it a game. Then if I get an itch later, I can come back to Conquest.
