Yeah, I'm wondering if I can even play these games on anything but the easiest mode anymore. I just don't have the time to reset chapters for deaths or terrible level ups.
You're right, it's only difficulty.

I think if you change the difficulty, you can re-pick casual/classic. Only after lowering the difficulty though.

I sold my New 3DS back in November due to lack of monetary funds but I'm dancing with the concept of picking up either a 2DS or another 3DS for the game.
However, in Canada the prices are wonky and I figure it's only going to end up being 50$ or so more dollars for the bundle that includes the console and the game.

Conquest Chapter 10 question:
Can you recruit/capture Oboro and Hinaba on this path? Apparently they retreat but I want to make sure whenever or not I should try to capture them or just defend the town.

I don't even.
Nintendo, who are you?
Thanks for the heads-up, that would be a lame way to spend a bunch of money.

After checking out my party's reclass options, I noticed that Felicia's Maid class is actually considered a Promoted class. But her stats aren't that much better than some of my better unpromoted units though at this point and she's already at Lv 10... did I just get duped into training this game's Jeigan? She's definitely starting to fall behind combat wise and I'm finding Elise more convenient for staff use.
Playing Nohr's path means I pretty much have her penciled in as one of my main units for my army, though. Are there any reclass options that can make her a bit more useful in battle?

Yea uhh even on Birthright Hard is harder than I remember Awakening Hard ever being. I am absolutely terrified any ANYBODY expect my unit take damage. The onyl reason I'm ok with my unit taking damage is she's basically a tank.

Hello, FEGAF! Picked up my Special Edition on Friday but haven't had a chance to play it until today. Thinking I'll start with Birthright then Conquest then Revelations. Really excited for a new Fire Emblem!

Enjoy! The more I play, the more convinced I am that this one has the series' best gameplay.

Thanks! That's quite a statement, too. Even more excited now.
Just beat Chapter 10 of Birthright and felt confident in myself. Went to fight one of the amiibo battles and got annihilated by Marth
Are all the amiibo battles about the same difficulty?
Also key to this game seems to be

go as slow as humanly possible and force the enemy to separate and attack your big group of guys. Hopefully the tactics will change up 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.
Face blowing is weird as fuck.
This is probably my favorite FE so far though (Birthright). Can't wait to get to Conquest, although the Asian aesthetic is extremely refreshing in how different it is from the norm.

So do the limited stock items in My Castle ever restock ? Or is that your entire supply of healing staves/rods etc for the game ? If so is there some way to recharge them ?
Same question for weapons (though that matters less since weapons don't have finite charges anymore).

You can go faster, but it'll be harder. Fire Emblem games tend to rate you on the end on a variety of things, including your turn total

Aw, I married my male avatar to Felicia already. Oh well, it's only one character and I'm not taking this playthrough seriously when it comes to optimal pairings. Thanks! Is there one person's kid who is clearly the worst?

Birthright, probably applies for Rev too:
MAKE SURE YOU TALK TO HISAME IN HIS PARALOGUE. The scene afterwards will still make it sound like he's joining even though he doesn't. Missed out on him because of this.

Orochi is an underwhelming unit but Hinata and Subaki make good support characters and Hinata can hold his own pretty decently.
Both of their children are two of the better children in the game too. Hinata can be with basically anyone and improve their support.

Whoops. My bad!
It took me a little bit to figure that one out. Solution:
Go around the right side. Only take out mountains in your way, DO NOT take out the middle one, and get to the sisters as fast as possible. You should wipe out all right side enemies, while the left side is forced to funnel to you because of the mountain by Sakura. Once you're all good, then take out the middle mountain.
That's a sure fire way to get yourself killed or lose a unit.
Conquest 10 if you think it is impossible... keep trying. Chapter 12 have fun with that and the other ones too.
Just don't overcommit and funnel a lot of the enemies into one direction so they do not overwhelm you. Pegasus and archers usually come from the right side so having niles and effie/arthur tank will help.
Keep magic users on the left to abuse the turret.
Everyone else fight in the middle.
Once you get the hang of learning how to defend and play the map's objective you can survive those turns. You shouldn't even ever go past your barricades and even battle Takumi at all. At most you would battle Hinata or Oboro.

Does it cost money to rebuild stuff that was destroyed during a raid on your castle? Specifically the conquest / AI mode one. Haven't done it since my first attempt ended with all my buildings getting thrashed.

I'm almost inclined to agree, but I just can't bring myself to change the difficulty. Resets are frustrating, but the challenge is so satisfying. (Though I haven't even been able to bring myself to reset for bad levels. The extra time from death resets is bad enough.)
Hell, I didn't even know level resets were a thing until he mentioned it.
I was trying to avoid spoilers but yea ok will just make a beeline for him. I got Effie up to him and took him down to one more hit and had Corrin within range so next turn he was definitely going to bite it but one damn Pegasus rider snuck by 4 units I had at the top and just barely made it to a corner green escape panel. I thought I had it in the bag and didn't think anyone could reach that before the next turn. 4th try.
Whelp, here we go again. See if I can keep Azura and Odin alive this time.

I'll be impress if he did that in hard.
What happens if you kill him? Does he drop something besides the elixir?

Was more of a thing in older Fire Emblems. Stat Caps were much lower so it was realistically possible for some characters to Cap key stats with a bit of resetting (didn't help that the Growth Rates were generally lower too so your chance of the RNG being mean too you was higher).

So I just finished Chapter 6 in Birthright. While I'm loving this game so far...
what the hell is the narrative reasoning for WANTING to choose Conquest? The Nohr kidnapped you, lied to you, your "father" is an insane person who has no problem with you dying, and the whole situation feels decidedly "evil". I'm glad I got Birthright because it seems like the logical choice/plot. I don't understand why they made the Nohr side seem so EVIL in the beginning. Why not make it more of a difficult choice? Honestly, Nohr seems like the bad guys so much that I'm not even sure if I'll play Conquest after this. Might just go to Revelation.

Not saying it's good justification (it's not), but I guess that's why they overdo the sibling love stuff during the few chapters? At this point your only motivation for siding with Nohr is to help your foster siblings see the truth? Idk.

The Nohr siblings were nice to you, and they are the only family you've actually known. They also weren't responsible for pretty much any of the stuff listed.
But yeah, I feel like they went in way to hard on making Nohr look like total asshats with few redeeming features even the siblings (who seem okayish) only spare prisoners for your sake.

If Amiibos are just overpriced DLC to you then they probably aren't worth it unless you've got a few games they can be used on.

i thought it was going to be youtrying to save your adopted siblings from their evil father, but it was mostly "this is my family, my father would never do that. I must go ask him to find for sure tho". It could've been handle better
