Fire Emblem

[Naha-]

Oh, I assumed you meant with that to just skip all the other games and play only the 3DS ones

Yeah, armored units are usually weak to magic. Also some weapons are armor effective, but mages are the go-to antiarmor

I see, thanks. I got no mages, so i'm going to check if any of my units weapons are armor effective. I only remember that Lucina's Falchion is overkill against Dragons.

well, that was fun. corrin trapped an enemy troubador against a wall and two pillars, so he couldn't do anything. Corrin's regular attack did 0 damage, but his special did 1, so he slowly chipped away at the troubador for about 45~exp per point of damage
got about a full level from that guy (including the kill)

As someone that started out with Awakening, those extra mechanics don't make the game anymore difficult.

I wasn't suggesting that. Just that there's a lot more mechanics in it, so it can be weird starting with Awakening before going to 7 and wondering why you can't job change or farm maps repeatedly.

I know I'm gonna farm the hell out of Stratum once the blue badges hit. Sharena has served me quite well and she needs to be upgraded.

Yeah, Sharena is surprisingly amazing. Though a lot of that has to do with Rally Attack. Rallies are really freaking good. Been running a team that has her and Nowi in it, so I get Rally Attack and Rally Defense.

I'd also like to ascend Anna to 3-star, since she gets Vantage. But she's stuck at level 17 or 18 because literally everything she can get EXP from does like 90% of her health in damage to her.

I want to start with something like Awakening before looking back at the older ones.

I'd still recommend Fire Emblem 7 (Blazing Sword) for newcomers. It has a tutorial mode with Lyn to help new players through the ropes, which explains things quite well and I do like the story of the Elibe games. I guess Awakening or Scared Stones is another decent place to start, but I prefer 7.

While it's considered easier than the other titles, Awakening has more mechanics to consider.

I don't really agree with this. All Awakening offers is same-turn reinforcements on hard, but these aren't done all that well compared to 6 in which I didn't mind them as much and I say this after I just played Ostia castle today and was forced to restart, because of said reinforcements. Pair up doesn't really have all that much depth to it and is just there to make units more broken, some skills are also pretty broken and reclassing is probably the worst of it

I also didn't enjoy the games maps that much. The story, which is nice, is the best thing about it. Well that and that it saved the franchise. Still maybe that has more to do with the better marketing and maybe casual mode, but it's not like Awakening introduced casual mode to begin with. Also in my opinion rescue is a way better mechanic than pair up. One relegates characters to (almost) stat boosters while the other allows for some interesting decisions, although partially because Canto is kinda broken. Speaking of which I was quite glad to see "rescue light" return in Fates with the Shelter skill.

I wasn't suggesting that. Just that there's a lot more mechanics in it, so it can be weird starting with Awakening before going to 7 and wondering why you can't job change or farm maps repeatedly.

Alright fair enough about the reclassing, but Scared Stones allows you to grind as well so if need be you could just start out with that and only miss out on reclassing.

If you're going to start with the GBA titles, you may as well just start with 7 since it chronologically takes place before Roy's FE (did this one ever come stateside or only fan translation?). You don't miss out on much skipping Sacred Stones.

[2Bad]

Sacred Stones is a better game than Sword of Seals

[ZidanReign]

no fullbody for that reindeer tharja mine saddens me

[2Bad]

Actually I would go so far as to say that Sword of Seals is just generally not great. Zephiel is cool I guess?

[Trubo]

Sacred Stones is a better game than Sword of Seals

Agreed, but I liked Blazing Blade more than either. Only mentioned doing Roy's since you may as well see how the story turns out, though you could just watch a let's play or something for it.

I got Takumi again

Takumi +2 now...

[GundamFSN]

Is merging actually worth it, tho? I heard it only gives accumulated SP and meager stat boost, like only +1 DEF or something.

You might as well raise all the Takumis and play counter all day long, lmao.

Stones has like zero memorable characters and FE without good characters can hardly called better than anything


In mean time after getting my dream team Lynn and SR Cecilia I can't access game for 12 hours already. I really hope they fix it so I don't have to bother with re-roll fest again.

[Rue]

4th reroll, goal achieved.


Also got Fir. I like Fir. The rest are "...eh".

Unfortunately, I kept getting the Return to Title error code after I just linked my account so a bit of hollow victory for now.

Amelia, Seth, Franz, Ewan, Erikia, Ephraim, L'arachel, Ross.

That's from the top of my head.

[Tenzen12]

Oh yeah, I think I vaguely remember there was someone named Erika...

I remember her because she was quite annoying.

[Rue]

^^The same for me but also Joshua (and his pimpin' hat), Myrh (the local dragon girl) & Lyon (the long haired JRPG pretty boy that needs to be stopped cuz' evil).

The story also doesn't really leave much of an impact aside from the little interesting event tidbits like the traitor & his zombie wife as well as the supposedly ancient Manakete guy getting gimped & also zombified.

[mewarmo990]

I can't play the game anymore as of about 5 hours ago. Getting an error code 803-3001. It's a title menu loop when I try to start the app.

My phone isn't rooted or anything either. And I already got what I wanted through gacha (spent a little), but hadn't linked my account yet.

Sent an e-mail to Nintendo at [email protected]. Going back and forth with the support reps now but chances are I'll have to wait for a patch.
To their credit, I received a response within minutes and it's not even 5AM Pacific Time yet.

This sucks. It seemed to be a smooth launch at first.
