Amppelix posted:What's the progression here? Is there anything stopping you from marching to the throne and seizing besides the promise of shiny loot? There could be thieves that unlock the side doors, along with stronger forces down the sides ready to flood out and trap you in a pincer. That combined with chest thieves giving you a loot time limit, and the maps ample room for reinforcements could make just charging down the middle a death trap.

Good lord, the dude is a zero effort version of alfa's Nino. And if he's got a decent staff rank... seriously though, with those defensive stats enemies won't touch him and that elixer should outlast them easily.

As for the rebalancing, the only thing I really noticed was that Pent kind of sucked, and, well, I've used Pent in every single one of my 20+ runs of the game, the man could use a break. Man, your athos was the only one with >25 str/magic. It's the attack of the balanced/speedy untits

Nihilarian posted:Wouldn't the better fix be to have the soldier go straight to a promoted class? Paladin, in this case? They tried that first, but it was literally just a downgraded cavalier at that point. Not that super god cavalier is really any better though. To make soldier work they really need to pull in one of those halberdier spritesheets since it wasn't intended to be a promoted class. Or just axe the idea because pc soldiers are kinda dumb.

Dr Pepper posted:Nephenee disagrees. I think the fact that she's the only memorable one they made just argues the point. Doubly so when you realize that she was only interesting because of wrath. The class just doesn't really bring anything new or interesting to the table compared to other classes. I'd be super game for Intelligent systems to try to make the class stand out some, because the idea of a lowly grunt becoming a hero is fun. In the context of the randomizer mod though, I just don't see a way to include it as a player class without losing the intent of playing through fe7 with things mixed up. The class isn't designed to function as a pc.

Went ahead and played a couple chapters, looks pretty good so far. I just hit the first level with peg knights, and the Flight Lance seems to have its description cut off by one character(flier instead of fliers?) You guys have done a great job so far, it really feels like I'm just playing a new fire emblem game. I love the enemy descriptions on some of the bosses, it's good to know that the people I'm killing are horrible puppy kicking monsters.

cheetah7071 posted:In case anybody cares, there's now a TAS of FE11. Generally less entertaining than the GBA TASes (surprise surprise), but notable in that the game can be beaten in 12 minutes even without crazy luck manipulation (which is largely impossible in that game). drat, I forgot just how many warp staves that game gave you. Also, for a tool assisted run you could in theory have the best rng manipulation of all the games in the series because you could set the clock with perfect precision allowing you to cherry pick the exact seed you want for your run.

In general in my opinion axefighters tend to wreck the early game in just about any fire emblem, only really hitting trouble after promotions. Bows aren't exactly a huge game changer outside of a range 3 attack at strength 30 and it's just such a lackluster promotion benefit compared to every other class. I still use them because it's fun to smash generals to shreds with an ax to the face.

I'd say 2 just because the ranking system in that game was weird and it would probably provide the most variation from a normal run of the game.

I liked the pair up system, even if it's numbers where terrible. I mean, it gets to like what a 70/70% chance of bonus attack and a full damage null at high support ranks? Who thought that was a good idea? But it made using a knight not involve pulling teeth and I could get them to the front line in a timely manner, so it gets my support.

The Shortest Path posted:The problem was that Pair Up homogenized the poo poo out of all the classes because you could just slap two characters with different weaknesses onto each other, like a Knight and a Myrmidon for example, and do whatever you wanted with them while gaining experience for both. It removed a massive amount of strategy from the game because character selection didn't matter because every character would work in every situation, pretty much. Second Seals only compounded the problem, and the complete lack of interesting or difficult map designs certainly didn't help either, as far as homogenization goes. Like I said, the numbers on it are terrible and you have no reason to not be using pairs at all times, but I like the concept.

Zore posted:I'm still of the opinion that the way to fix Pair-Up is to remove the stat bonuses. That makes it a much more tactical thing and makes pairing people up a choice that is still good in some situations, but doesn't make you into a murder machine. Eh, I think they'd be fine paired way the hell down. I don't think there is salvaging a percent chance to randomly take no damage or have a free attack that can also crit get added in.

Shoving is either the greatest, most amazing mechanic to ever reach fire emblem or entirely useless. That poo poo should make a comeback, chain shoving to get people ridiculous distances in a single turn is astoundingly fun.

Bongo Bill posted:I liked that FE8 had an endless post-game mode where you could keep unlocking supports and eventually cap everybody's stats in theory. More Fire Emblems should have that. Awakening did. But, 7 was otherwise better. I'm not a fan of grindy stuff in game, but being able to dick around after the game is done has been an enjoyable experience in both games that had more than two trial maps to play with your saviors of the world.

mabels big day posted:Everything I'm reading right here makes me dread promoting my units The unit they're talking about purchasing is a Hector mode exclusive, so you're not going to need to worry about it on your first run. The theif upgrade item is more of a side grade and the game gives you an rng proof assassin so don't worry about that too much. Dart is the only real trap here seeing as how his upgrade item is basically unique and very hard to find without foreknowledge. So in short don't fuss about it too much, just make sure to get a map showing where the ocean seal is hidden should you be using dart.
