Oddly enough, the one character I've used at all who I have yet to see a support I liked is my favorite in terms of design - Cordelia. I was planning on pairing her with my Avatar in my first, don't-care-about-eugenics run, but...her support was boring straight through to A, so I didn't bother getting the S, and no one else has managed to break her shell for me. Maybe I should try her with Henry...

Okay, so I just got a Master Seal from a travelling merchant, and got the Second Seal from the Renown rewards. Kellam, Chrom, and my Avatar are all at or around L15, so I really want to get some reclassing done soon, but those are my only seals (I just finished Chapter 7). Kellam's options look awful for a Knight (though I guess Thief might work to get him some extra speed, even if it would put Gaius out of a job temporarily), as do Chrom's. I'm thinking to just promote Chrom once he hits 20, and toss Kellam my next Master Seal while I reclass the Avatar around a bit. I have absolutely no idea what to make him, though. Too many choices, and I hear Second Seals are kind of rare until a lot later in the game, so I don't want to put him in a class with useless skills.

Olivia is wasted on Henry, sadly. Edit: The best use for second seals early on is to allow someone to double up on those fast, early levels before promoting. Some good choices are Donny (more like obligatory, really), Frederick if you want him to stop sucking (taking him to 5 great knight for luna first also helps), and anyone with class change options that share their current weapon skill. For example, doubling up on myrmidon and thief with just about anyone will result in a great swordsmaster/assassin. It is usually a waste of time to switch someone back and forth between physical and magic classes, with a few exceptions like collecting crit skills for sorcerer or intentionally building toward dark knight. gimme the GOD DAMN candy fucked around with this message at 04:22 on Feb 11, 2013 |

Avatar should really get the second Master Seal. Rally Spectrum just makes everything so much easier for your other guys. Second Seals are available by 15-16 which is middle of the game.

I was considering saving it for Donny, but he's only L6 right now and I was hoping to get Underdog before making him a slayer of gods. I have a bunch of people between 7-9 right now, so maybe I'll hit CoY1 and try and get a couple of them up to 10, and then go from there.

Donny goes from poo poo to very useful as soon as you change his class, so why go through the extra trouble?

My latest Donny just capped his Mercenary stats at level 13. He Change Sealed at level 10 Villager. The dude does not need to waste any more time being babied, and can probably solo on his own (Actually, a level 1 Hero Donny just basically soloed Chapter 11 Lunatic for me). edit: on the other hand, Sumia would be benched forever if it weren't for eugenics. 12/11 STR-MAG as a 20/4 Dark Flier?!

Underdog is pretty drat good when I got it. I had Donny run right into a mob and he evaded every single attack. I got him up to level 5 hero for sol and he's indestructible now.

If you lose a character on Normal setting, is there any way to reset the battle as opposed to closing out the software from the Home menu and opening it again?

Rally Spectrum is 15 promoted. You have to grind a ton to get it before the second Master Seal. Worthwhile on Lunatic I'm sure, but anywhere else it's an enmormous waste of time (and character slot).

Changing Kellam to Thief can get you Move+1, which to me sounds fantastic for a general. Possibly promoting him to trickster for Acrobat so he can't be slowed by terrain and you'd have an unstoppable roaming wall, but we're talking two Second Seals and a Master for that trick. I changed my Avatar to Barbarian and used Despoil (I made my Asset luck) to fund more Master Seals when they became available at the random map merchants. I'll get back to Grandmaster eventually.

That actually sounds like a really good idea, but Kellam is basically the only reliable tank I have right now, and there's no way I'm trusting my dodge tanks to not get hit more than twice on a consistent basis. Decisions, decisions...

Especially since they can more or less solo everything after promotion.

Libra has become one of my favorite units right now. I paired him up with Nowi for reasons unknown, and basically just park him and Donny/Sully next to each other at any choke point, and none shall pass. This game is awesome.

Even with Veteran you're getting <15 xp for a kill from about level 3 or 4 promoted. With the same number of kills you could get the rest of your team a permanent +4 all stats simply through not feeding all your kills to the promoted unit and have one more unit that can actually kill things for you. Rally Spectrum is a good skill, but it's a complete waste of time to grind for it so early in Hard or Normal modes. Also, promoting straight from your original base class makes you significantly weaker later on to the order of 4-5 points in all stats and 7-8 in hp, and it's very hard to catch up because you gain one level with the same amount of kills that would have gotten you 4-5 levels if you'd reclassed first.

Kellam does lose a ton of defense switching to Thief, but his defense growth is still really good and he gets tanky again pretty fast. Just switch him and have him solo DLC1/Florina a couple times.

Yeah, sorry, derped on that. I'm pretty sure about Leif's Blade though, because I had Donny with 50+ luck wielding one of those for half the game soloing maps and only getting 1-2 bullions per map.

I'm not saying you should grind for it early, just that it's significantly faster to get it by promoting before reclassing because reclassing will delay hitting Grandmaster 15 by 20 levels (either secondary class 10, Tactician 10, Grandmaster 15 or secondary class 10, promoted class 10, Grandmaster 15) and unpromoted skills are pretty bad for the most part. Plus, this game more than any other in the series revolves around having two or three super units just due to every map being a route or defeat boss objective and how broken pair up and nosferatu are.

So when my Vaike hit level 20 I reclassed him into a Barbarian and now he's level 20 so i'm turning him into a Berserker. I fear for what this is going to do to my game.

Because of the thread I decided to give Donnell a chance and finally reclassed him to a mercenary. He's so much of a monster I could swear he says "Blood for the blood god" after he kills something.
