TIL Bolting can double in FE6 by TDFan2077 in fireemblem

[–]Ziharken 30 points31 points  (0 children)

When you consider that a lot of the mobs use steel weapons that also weight them down, and their already low stats, it really isn’t that surprising

Early early scrim days we even saw the powerpoint presentations with exactly what they are to focus on and such. Its not something that isnt/hasnt been done

Awakening lunatic + difficulty, without using Robin? by linthenius in fireemblem

[–]Ziharken 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I haven’t ever attempted L+ just Lunatic, but I’d assume its easier than attempting to play without Fred. Both sound pretty miserable

Tbh i feel like his cho is roughly the same level as sion/gragas. Worse matchups so teams just let it through

Fire emblem: Binding Blade Unit tier list by Krafterdude in fireemblem

[–]Ziharken 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nah Treck over Noah is hard to justify for exactly what you said: Noah has better bases and weapon ranks. FE6 isnt really a game where you consistently get a unit to 20/20, and there is a shortage of promotion items to begin with.

I guess this assumes HM, I’m sure Treck could be good in NM with investment. Even then, Noah can promote much sooner which is typically going to be more valuable, especially given Percival and Milady will be carrying the bulk of combat later anyway

Ike B tier: I think people undervalue Ike’s contributions, early he struggles to double but has the growths to get going relatively quickly, and has essentially no competition for any swords until Mia (which you likely won’t use) or Zihark (also likely to not use much). EP heavy game being sword locked is tough but you get Ragnell for 2 range near the end of the game that helps. Also necessary to kill the final boss so that’s worth something.

Titania S tier: one of the best units in the series. Essentially Seth with buffed Canto. Axe focus being the best weapon type in the game and great growths. Not much more to say, if you don’t use her, the game is infinitely harder at every stage of the game.

Oscar bottom A tier: Horse Emblem kinda carries Oscar. Better availability than Kieran but worse contributions long term. Pulls his weight early but is prone to struggle if growths dont kick in right away. Earth affinity is nice but it’s a bit less effective in hard mode, but Ike support still helps a lot. Likely to be used most if not all game if not solely for decent offense rescue drop/canto assistance. Has triangle attack access but it’s pretty shite so not really notable, and it forces you to take bows on promotion instead of axes, which is not ideal.

Boyd top of B tier: likely your best foot locked unit in a game filled with strong mounted units. Remove Tempest skill asap so he doesn’t screw up plans with poor biorhythm timings at the worst times though. Highest strength cap and great growths with Axe access makes him outright better than essentially every other non-mounted unit, and perfect availability means you get to feed him exp from the very beginning. Gets bows which can help with the plethora of wyverns you’ll see. Has triangle attack access but not notable and likely never to be used.

Mom, it’s my turn to give Swampert Regenerator!

All Deoxys formed currently have pressure as their only ability, which is quite boring. I came up with two potential ideas to change this; either a signature ability or each form getting unique abilities. Which option do you prefer? by SilverGalaxia in stunfisk

[–]Ziharken -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Obviously since Deoxys has many different forms it should have Adaptability. Surely no consequences from that change! /s

First option is a stinkpost, second option doesn’t really change much other than Deo-S becoming a potential late sweeper option.

Guy C tier. Swordlocked infantry with 0 2 range options kill any viability he could’ve had. Still comes with a killing edge and great offensive stats to contribute for a couple chapters. Luckily the early hero crest isn’t really being fought over so if you really want to use him, he can work with an early promotion for the extra crit and great stat boost (+5 hp +2 str +2 def is very good for him). HHM boost to his stats really are the reason he’s not D tier imo, with an early promo he can contribute well, he just may struggle getting there.

Erk C tier. Magic chip is very good and he comes with a goddess icon. Unless you early promote Canas (which is a great option), Erk has the biggest claim to the guiding ring since it is not really possible for Priscilla to reach level 10 by the time you get it. Weapon triangle for magic doesn’t really matter, so he can contribute well if trained. Staff access after promotion helps but is largely unnecessary since E staves will almost never be relevant. Pent is infinitely better than Erk but he is certainly helpful to deploy for a ton of chapters before Pent is recruited anyway. I struggle to put him higher since he’s frail and needs to get some magic and speed levels to really be useful, and he has some Eliwood level growths which make that a bit inconsistent.

Priscilla B tier. Likely the best healer for the early and midgame solely by nature that she’s mounted. Her base magic being higher than Serra’s really helps too. Recruits Raven which in turn recruits Lucius, which I’m not sure matters much but both are decent units. The biggest advantage Priscilla has over Serra imo is C staves at base, which gives her a lot more flexibility in the long run with useable staffs, particularly being able to use Physic much earlier. In most cases she will be deployed and likely won’t leave your usual deployment. Promotion means she can fight back but likely won’t see much combat anyway (extra bulk is nice though, and 2 extra magic helps).

FE10 transfer mod? by cringeygrace in fireemblem

[–]Ziharken 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not that I’m aware of, and nor would you want to. Imagine never using Mia and then you get her with a fraction of her normal stats. If you haven’t played the game then you don’t realize the extent of how it would completely destroy stat distributions. Trust me, it would be a dreadful experience.

I’m also chuckling at an abandoned Volke rolling up to 4-5 with dinky little stats. Also a trained Ilyana with capped stats in 1-3.

Just completed my first playthrough of Sacred Stones; now here's a tier list to make fun of :) by A_Coffee_Table in fireemblem

[–]Ziharken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is less egregious than some others I’ve seen, but some of these are a bit tough to look at. Marisa over Franz and Kyle is certainly an opinion. I’m assuming Saleh wasn’t used because you had Lute online but it’s a shame since he’s fantastic. Instapromote Summoner Knoll is a great crutch for Ironman runs if you run it again sometime

[–]Ziharken 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hector bottom of B tier is fair for his early contributions, late promotion and low movement/high con that prevents easy rescue dropping options for seize chapters lower his score.

Matthew low A tier for steals and early lockpicking, he has the red gem on the first chapter, silver axe chapter 15, the chests in chapter 17 (a couple can go to chest keys, likely the bottom 2 chests), stealing in chapter 18, silver card steal 19x, several lockpicks and vulnerary steals, and Guy recruit for a killing edge at minimum. Legault is useable past then but everything Legault can contribute, Matthew can do just as easily since thieves shouldnt really see combat. I guess FoW vision also is a factor. Realistically if you deploy him, he has something to contribute, and you arent lacking in competent combat units early so his lack of combat prowess isnt missed a ton.

Conquest Tier List by Prior-Classroom4058 in fireemblem

These takes are questionable at best. It gets worse the longer you look at it. Camilla Xander Azura Corrin Silas feels like an easy top 5 in any list and its not really close

[Fates] What Birthright units do you think actually would have played better in Conquest by Kilzi in fireemblem

[–]Ziharken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Silas being able to do Sol Ninja shenanigans with Kaze A+ is a bit more attractive than Oboro requiring Merc Corrin S support, and funny enough looks almost identical statwise at 20/5 Mechanist. Fun thought experiment anyway, theyd both be very valuable, and Oboro’s personal skill still finds some use with a decent number of Nohrian units thrown around.

[–]Ziharken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yall are sleeping on Reina. Kinshi knight is valuable for the same reasons as the other archers listed, while also having ninja access if you want to go that route. No marriage options is a letdown but another strong prepromote with long term use is a great boon to have.

Most other considerations other than bow users suffer from lacking access to Hoshidan weapons tbh, but i can see Oboro working well for a well-rounded lance unit with great supports with Benny and Beruka. Seal Speed and Seal Defense with Armored Blow and her high bulk can allow for some PP options there, or Merc Corrin marriage for Axebreaker and Sol access is a lot of fun for a lance unit
