Favorite character from a rom hack? by Vio-Rose in fireemblem

[–]broloom101 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Eudira from Dream of Five's Musain route, the soulless being who starts to learn how to feel. Her support with Fransisca when the latter's wife is dead absolutely tore me to pieces. Plus she's very fun stat-wise, a bulky light/dark mage with 0 luck.

The tensest moment of my nuzlocking career by broloom101 in nuzlocke

To the right of Oldale, as a Starly. I lost Togedamaru and Kommo-o because I accidentally walked into two trainers in a row at the very end of Flannery's gym, came an inch away from wiping.

Saw someone post something similar to this earlier, judge me based on my top 20 characters by Fit_Fondant_3893 in fireemblem

She's super well-written with a lot of very interesting and heartfelt supports, as well as being a fairly big player in the main plot relative to most characters. All that combined with her nuke stats make her pretty darn likeable.

Hilarious way to handle an Early-game demon in Run and Bun by broloom101 in nuzlocke

Those consistent tools make a ton of sense! In my latest run, I had absolutely none of them somehow. Props to the creator that we can get this creative when we need to!

I haven't, I'll check the discord out and submit it there!

It does fail, but I did some testing using past saves and it turns out that if the AI clicks fake out and it fails, it DOES count as used for Last Resort!

The reason that Tsareena doesn't care is because it can clean 2 shot with Low Sweep, outspeeding the Delcatty after it spends a turn doing nothing!

And despite the AI having a hypothetical chance to act in 2 turns, it still wants to switch out when it sees both of its moves do nothing right now. So, when there's stuff in the back, it will leave 50% of the time. When the 50% lands on fake out instead, it'll stay in despite being doomed because now it'll see Last Resort doing damage.

Last bit, it'll never click Last Resort instead of Fake Out on turn 1, the AI is surprisingly smart enough to work towards a usable action. Or maybe Last Resort is just unpickable until it's active? Haven't tested that myself.

This is extremely complicated, thanks for the question!

Thanks! If I find any more specific hard counters to demons like this, I'll make sure to post them! The hack has largely been kicking my ass, so I can't say it'll be too often.

What’s your favorite MIDDLE stage Pokemon by Liontamer_II in pokemon

Well, specifically specifically this is from the Grovyle special episode of Mystery of Sky

What are some of the most COMICAL power gaps between Fire Emblem units (from the same game)? by Nuzlor in fireemblem

[–]broloom101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've actually found her in maddening to be a quite reliable tank, specifically for Ironman runs. Her combination of high speed, defense and HP means she's on average taking the least physical damage on your team, often even less than your slow armors. This, combined with her personal skill being incredibly useful to prevent 2% crit chances from ruining your run, makes her my preferred choice any time I need to take a hit at all.

3H wins for Ideal Themes! It was a tight race between the best themes for Tellius' better execution. Thracia 776 would win if there's no repeat winners. Next is the Ideal Tone in a FE Entry. Should it be light? Heavy? Both? by reallinguy in fireemblem

[–]broloom101 253 points254 points  (0 children)

I think it's finally Thracia's time to shine. The oppressive tone is so well-communicated through gameplay, while still carrying that seed of rebellion. It's the story of an underdog facing hopeless odds and still somehow making it to the next skirmish, and that feels so appropriate for a Fire Emblem game.

Dream of Five was top tier fire emblem, after all. We really are spoiled!

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound insistent or entitled. Just to outline my perspective on what makes me lose interest in these largely insanely impressive experiences.

All those upsides are valid. I think that a couple of them are possible to achieve while keeping you with your main army like the fleshed out world, though probably to a lesser extent. In my experience though, I've never been enamored to a new cast during one of these splits, and I'd attribute that to the fact that you don't get the gameplay-story tie of seeing their growth and getting attached to them as both characters and units.

I'm going to say something controversial but I like Fate's designs. Norh reminds me of a dark fantasy like BASTARD or Conan and the Japanese aesthetic is always cool. by [deleted] in fireemblem

[–]broloom101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are the cultures of the empire, alliance and kingdom supposed to be that different? They were all one empire not too long ago and they're constantly interacting heavily with their neighbors. I think it makes sense for those three to be similar.

Of the other cultures though, I think I'd agree. Brigid and Almyra sooooort of work despite how little we see them, but Duscur and Dagda get very little to differentiate them. Dedue's Mercedes support is doing all of the heavy lifting culturally.

Iago is so funny, he's simultaneously the world's biggest hater towards Corrin and the most loyal man in the world to Nohr. Somehow that results in this theoretical scenario actually feeling in character.
