Yeah, you say that now.
I basically have to use him for the final chapters of SS because he's my only Light user with an S rank, and I'm horribly low levelled so I need to drag all the sacred weapons out for this to have a chance of winning. Next time: An analysis of how badly Iron got fucked by levels, post-game edition! EIDT: Beat SS finally, no fatalities (About 30-odd resets). 330 turns exactly, longest battle was Chapter 15 with 45 turns. How the units turned out, for those who want to laugh at how badly they got screwed compared to average: [WARNING: In progress, this may take a while.] Spoiler: show

So I got Birthright and I've been playing it all weekend. These are not in chronological order.
First off, married Kaden, now have two adorable nine tails fox children capable of using dragon veins. Kara and Selkie are my adorable jelly beans. Second off, Spoiler: show Third, lost Rinkah and Orochi on the boat. That falcon knight just WOULDNT DIE UGH. Fourth, Mozu and Oboto became the Super Spear Girls. They're married. I DONT CARE IF IT SAYS A+ THERE ITS TOO CUTE AND THEY AINT MARRYIN ANYONE ELSE AND THERE WAS NO CANONICAL A+ CONVO SO I HAVE FANON AUTHORITY. Lastly, cheesed Pleasure Palace Iago. Silenced his turret long enough to kill it's operator, then silenced him, had Mozu hit him with the Raider Naginata, leaving him in his undies for Hana the not Jumpluff to finish off. BEST BOSSFIGHT YET.

Yeah, I've heard it's a challenging map. Which difficulty are you playing on?
Anyways, been playing Birthright. Normal/Classic to get a feel for the game (and new mechanics) before moving onto harder difficulties. Not grinding since it'll make it easier. Only up to Ch. 15, but I'm enjoying this game way more over to Awakening. More focus on player phase actions, the new debuffing mechanics, nerfed Pair Up, etc, really improved the gameplay. Also Takumi is amazing, possibly the best archer I've ever used. (Haven't played RD so can't comment on RD!Shinon)

Hard. I should probably just do Normal or something since this one is supposed to be challenging. IDK, my units are like levels 1-3 except for MC who is 6, and the enemies are all 7+.
I like it! But it's tough. |

I got the Special Edition myself (literally only 5 copies came into the store where I bought it) and I'm playing Birthright first in Lunatic/Classic mode. Currently at Chapter 11 so far and loving every minute of it!
Ugh oh yeah that chapter was horrible especially in Lunatic. I don't even know how I beat that with everyone alive to be honest. xd |

Conquest is where I want all my Fire Emblem games to be, but Jesus can it be unforgiving.
Miss an attack. Now a friend dies. FFFFFFF. Up to Chapter 8 right now and I'm thinking of restarting the game with a different boon/banes. I went with Speed+/Luck- and I'm not really digging it. Anyone know if Speed is as important as it was in Awakening? Or if Luck is still the best weakness? I'm almost considering going for either Strength+/Luck- or Speed+/Magic-. |

Never played an FE game before and decided to try special edition on hard/classic. Fun so far, up to chapter 8 or so.

>Lv. 16 Sakura with 60% Mag Growth rate
>only has 11 Mag from a base of 6 at Lv. 1 gdi Lunatic RNG. (In Fates Lunatic mode, your stat growths per level are already rolled once you start the game and is fixed so I can't soft reset to get a better growth ;;) |

On the other hand, it seems like that's kind of a mixed blessing: it affords you a ton of peace of mind going forward. Rather than neurotically obsessing over hundreds of soft resets per battle, you can just beat a chapter with all units intact and move on with your life (and the game!). No need to play the same battle over and over again because this time you lost Unit A and this other time you lost Unit B and this other time you had everyone survive but the protagonist only got +1 in a stat where he really should have been getting +2 or better, etc. Sympathies though. It reminds me of some of the Gen 3 troubles people had with the Latis.

I fucked up super hard with this run in Conquest.
I didn't know the maid was a upgraded class, so I wasted many kills on a unit who would never be any good. Her stats were so low that I thought she was a basic class. It seems I should have made support couples alot earlier than I should have. I fucked up HARD with Corrin. I didn't think the manakete powers used Mag, so I had his boon be str, and his weakness mag. I wanted a mag one in Birthright, but it's the Conquest one that class ups with a freaking tome! I use the dragonstone alot too. That extra defense is really helpful. Few specifics (no real spoilers, but it has characters and whatnot) Spoiler: show PS: I hate chapter 20 with a passion. Last edited by big bad birtha; 02-26-2016 at 01:47 AM. |

I also got Conquest. I'm playing completely blind, went Mag+/Luck-. Well, I guess not completely - I didn't realize the maid class was promoted until this thread! I'll hold off on giving her more of that lovely experience.
I'm about to start Ch. 8. So far I really like it, but am not really digging how much it focuses on making Corrin so powerful so early. This can make it hard to focus on training up other characters. |

>maid
Regarding Felicia/Jakob, yes they start as a promoted class but their stats are actually comparable to that of a basic class. (Think of them as Lv. 1 as compared to Gunter's, say, Lv. 20 + 1) They're not gonna hog the EXP if you give it to them unlike Frederick in Awakening. |

Adding to the above, they're still very useful for their skills that support Corrin, and staves. Their internal level is set to be the same as a unpromoted unit, which is why they gain EXP at the standard rate. Gunter's pretty okay for Attack Stances though.
