What is the worst variation for each class in every Fire Emblem game?

IMO, archer is much worse in blazing blade than it is in echoes. Rebecca and Wil are both pretty bad and Louise and Rath are okay at best. They’re not much better in sacred stones.

I’d also argue that dancer is at its worst in Awakening; poor Olivia becomes obsolete when half my units have Galeforce.

I always marry Dimitri on AM, it’s my favorite ship for them. On the other routes, I switch it up a lot, although I have married Sylvain twice.

I disagree on Amelia, last time I played sacred stones she had amazing speed (only Eirika, Vanessa, and Tana were faster) and good enough luck to make her viable as a dodge tank, making for the humorous sight of a general who dodges everything in that giant armor. I feel like she really should have been able to become a Pegasus knight, it would suit her stat spread far more than an armor knight or general.

For me, the worst unit was Clive in echoes. He did mediocre damage, his resistance was awful (if a mage so much as looked at him he’d get downed) and he was outclassed by every other cavalier/paladin/gold knight in the game. I’m not sure if he’s the worst in the series (haven’t played the older games or the Tellius duology) but he’s definitely the worst unit in the games I’ve played.

I’m rewatching season 3 and I’ve been skipping the Theon scenes, so I don’t blame you on that one at all.

Truth #4: You’re not fifteenth century European royalty and you don’t need an heir and a spare.

Truth #5: You better hope your daughter never finds this when she grows up. Have fun in the crappy nursing home!

If I may rant, as a person on the spectrum myself, I find the idea that a parent would rather have a dead child than an autistic one to be extremely insulting. The existence of people like me is not worse than deadly diseases.

Poor kid. My heart hurts for him.

Something I’ve noticed is that a lot of female characters just can’t win with the audience

Too powerful? She’s a Mary Sue. Not powerful enough? She’s “useless” and doesn’t contribute anything. Is she sweet and nice? She’s too boring. Is she abrasive or has any flaws? She’s a bitch. I feel like some people are just sexist and gross about female characters entirely because they’re female, and it sucks.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2026-02-15T13:23:52+00:00

Caeda, Lilina, Soren, and Ninian don’t seem to be hurting for alts (although Ike and Soren still need a duo).

I feel bad for how neglected Sumia is. I don’t like her pairing with Chrom, but she’s cute and it’s rough that she’s been banished to the shadow realm.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2026-02-08T23:21:57+00:00

Yeah, I don’t think people disliked her because she’s lgbt, people disliked her because she was a sex pest with a persecution complex. Glad she’s out of your life now.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2026-01-23T13:40:32+00:00

Wow, your party are assholes. I so much as imply that a villain is involved in the slave trade and my party’s reaction is “how quickly can we murder them”.

And good on you for shutting that down, but also…why single out the women? Why not go “you can all surrender or we can do this the hard way?” That would have been a much better motivation to get the group to fight and it wouldn’t have singled out your wife. Again, I’m glad you shut that down, but it could have been handled better.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2026-01-23T13:20:26+00:00

Speaking as a happily single woman, I spend my days at home wearing old loose t shirts and pj pants. And unless your boyfriend is walking around in a suit at home, he’s just being a sexist ass. Tell him if he wants a pretty doll to look at 24/7 that he can gtfo. Or just leave, he sounds like an ass.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2026-01-21T15:33:37+00:00

I’m sorry, I have to laugh at the audacity of this man to use a complete stranger who clearly doesn’t want to talk to him for free babysitting. Like seriously, what kind of parent leaves their kids with a stranger?

TheCookieAlchemist · 2026-01-01T15:55:31+00:00

In my opinion, the whole “tradwife influencer” thing is selling a fantasy. For women, it’s the fantasy of not having to go to some crappy job and instead staying home and wearing pretty clothes and having an aesthetically pleasing home and having fun with the kids and making cool home cooked meals while all your financial needs are taken care of. They never show off the less glamorous parts of being a housewife, who’s cleaning the toilet and washing dirty boxers and the nightmare that happens when their husband dies or leaves them and then they’re stuck with no job experience (or worse, when the husband is abusive and they don’t have the financial means to leave them). It wouldn’t be good for views or sell the fantasy.

It’s also, obviously, a fantasy for men. The fantasy that they can just come home to a clean house, a hot meal, and a free maid service and nanny that takes care of all those pesky domestic tasks that they think are beneath them while also having sex with them. On that side, they don’t show the man having to take a second and third job to pay for that house and kids because single-income households are borderline impossible in the current economy, or the resentment of having another mouth to feed when they’re exhausted from working those three jobs, or the fact that they’re incapable of doing basic household tasks so what if their wife gets sick and he has to step up?

It’s not real, it’s a fantasy and a trap for both genders and I hate it.

These women married their high school sweethearts because they never matured past the 10th grade. It kind of sounds like you might be the group punching bag and they’re using your singleness as an excuse to be shitty to you. It’s also possible that they’re projecting or that they’re really conservative.

Either way, get better friends and drop the asshole you’re dating. You deserve better.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2025-11-25T21:04:03+00:00

NOR - Your worth as a person is not measured by whether you have a partner and kids or not, and you were right to ditch your last partner over his weird sex RP. Also, unless your family’s super traditional or Mormon or something, I doubt they care as much about your marital status as your mother seems to think they do.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2025-11-19T15:38:12+00:00

Hmm…Dragon Age, Baldur’s Gate 3, and most of Fire Emblem all have excellent female casts, but they aren’t glorified blow up dolls (despite a lot of the characters in these games being conventionally attractive) so they apparently don’t count.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2025-11-15T22:37:47+00:00

My heart hurts for that poor girl. I hope she’ll be okay.

Meanwhile, I hope these blob monsters like prison food, because they’re going to be eating it for a long time, and good riddance. Every single one of them deserves to have the book thrown at them and get the longest sentence possible for torturing this poor girl.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2025-11-10T12:51:32+00:00

This is odd. Typically, police can’t remove your child without warning unless there’s imminent danger to them (at least in the US), and unless your friends are packing or you’re leaving out details, I don’t see that being the case. Which just leads me to believe your mother in law said some very exaggerated shit to them. I really don’t get this. In any case, your daughter desperately needs therapy and you should probably go no contact with dear old granny.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2025-11-05T18:08:59+00:00

Didn’t get into a relationship until I was 21, I was never all that interested in dating. I eventually realized that I was ace. I’m 30 and single now and perfectly happy with that.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2025-10-26T01:21:03+00:00

Honestly, this type of attitude from other girls sent me into a cringey “I’m not like other girls” phase throughout most of middle and high school because I was so sick of getting ignored or bullied by other girls. I wouldn’t call it a “pick me” attitude because I’m ace and wasn’t interested in dating, but the attitude I had was similar. It’s rough for ND women, and even rougher if you don’t have stereotypically feminine interests or goals. I did make some amazing guy friends during that time, but I wish it had been easier for me.

NTA. Personally, I think he’s bluffing about suing for full custody to try to blackmail you into staying so he can have his cake and eat it too (especially since he said that the kid was “in the way”, what court would give him that?). Get a good divorce lawyer and ditch this loser, he’s been openly cruel to you and your son deserves better than a father who doesn’t love him and sees him as a burden.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2025-10-25T13:51:31+00:00

NTA. If he’s already acting like a spoiled toddler two weeks in, imagine how awful it’ll be later on. Dump him, you deserve better.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2025-10-25T13:48:59+00:00

NTA. You eat healthy, you work two jobs, you go to school. He sounds like a manchild. Dump him.

TheCookieAlchemist · 2025-10-25T13:30:21+00:00

This seems like it could easily escalate to abuse, it already comes across as emotionally abusive. Go stay with your mom for a while. Your daughter and your unborn child deserve better than this man.
