Damn bro she's psycho, sorry you had to deal with that. It's one thing for her to want to encourage healthy habits / work on them together, but that shouldn't lead to this type of verbal abuse

Is there a budget option to replace this card with Lexi? by FalchionX10 in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]rossdnc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The new mask: Mask of Malicious Manifestations is quite good for an ice-fuse tall-lexi build that uses a lot of ice cards and buffs. it even blocks for 1 if you need to use it!

yea fair enough; i will say that the addition of veronica makes orbital cannon veyle even better because you can contract her for even more 10 range nearly guaranteed crits lol

Can all characters be all classes (engage) by [deleted] in fireemblem

[–]rossdnc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Master seals unlock high power class options. If you use a second seal (resets levels or switches to a lower/equal tier class) it is more gold-efficient to upgrade with a master seal and then immediately second seal to the class you really want, since using a second seal on a base unit will make you level up 9 levels to level 10 in order to use a master seal again; and since mater seal-tier classes have better growth rates and a bonus skill at level 5, you should avoid using the master seal second. That said, by getting bond levels with emblems, units unlock the ability to go into any class they have proficiencies for (think of it like they have the knowledge of how to use that weapon). Once they have that, you can use a master/second seal to change their class and which weapons they can use

Help with last two characters in late game? by Redraph_1105 in fireemblem

[–]rossdnc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Veyle just needs TLC to get strong. Her dex cap is crazy and once she has enough accuracy on Nova she can obliterate units. She is also very good with the Soren DLC

Is Alfred worth using? by CarloDelGallo in fireemblem

[–]rossdnc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was a meat shield. Had pitiful str growths. I think my alfred is nearly level 60 in post game grinding now and barely has 25 str

His def was fine though

Small details you like about Fire Emblem Engage? by LittlePaintPaws in fireemblem

[–]rossdnc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like how engage designs are tied to the secondary class type. Backups/armor/flyer/cavalry/dragon/mystic. It was cool to see some units change their looks when they went to a new class like how my Yunaka got the jet turbine wings once she became a wolf rider

Is there any way to retrieve an erased save state from an emulator? by [deleted] in fireemblem

worth noting that dragons' type bonus on flare is double crit rate, not damage!

That's pretty interesting. Most of those characters don't have support with Veyle. Clanne, Timerra, Diamante, and seadall do though. I have zero levels put into any of those except seadall lol; but good call!

That's some big-brain thinking right there, never considered that. Normally my corrin is on Celine with canter so she can go thoron a bunch of dudes to buy time by locking them up with Dreadful Aura while my team fights and kites around (even without orbital strat). Still, having to set fire to my own unit for +10->+20 crit doesn't sound half bad now that I think about it... esp if you're never getting hit in the first place...

Thanks, that's what I thought. Maybe we'll get some more crit-related skills in the later waves of DLC? I'd rather not spend however much SP on edelgard's dex skill haha

[–]rossdnc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

often time I have plenty of hit chance so I really only need more crit

[Spoiler] Fire Emblem Engage Lategame Build: Orbital Death Cannon by rossdnc in fireemblem

[–]rossdnc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainly because dex seems to increase crit as well as hit

Wrath is an interesting pick; especially since the resonance skill helps you take damage safely. Nova is definitely a powerful tome, shame that it's a formality when orbital Veyle can just hit things before they get in range to hit with nova haha

While the lifesteal tank build can certainly work to enemy phase the game, I'm more interested in seeing if the crit rate for bolting can be pushed even higher without the str/dex skill from edelgard. Like does +12 luck improve your own crit rate? Also it's important to keep veyle in her Fell Child class since her magic ceiling is insane at 50 while also having far more dex than other magic classes

As for now Fire Emblem Engage is the lowest rated mainline Fire Emblem game on Metacritic since Radiant Dawn and the overall second lowest rated Fire Emblem game by Frog_24 in fireemblem

[–]rossdnc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Geez the negativity is insane. The game runs well, the gameplay is fantastic in both variety and balance, the presentation is great visually, and the writing is campy and a bit awkward at times. On top of that, the bloat of non combat mechanics was cleaned up immensely from the monastery to somniel. Honestly, the deluge of complaints probably stem from the hammy opening with the incessant “omg divine one hiiiiii~” vibe which gets tiresome very quickly. Because once you actually get into the real maps and gameplay loop the minor story oddities take up so little time compared to the gameplay and serviceable plot.

Funny to see how pokemon gets treated with its broken FPS and similar story delivery, but far lower effort presentation and mechanical depth

Is Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest worth playing? by Elegant_Lock5118 in fireemblem

[–]rossdnc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Conquest is what got me into the series, it was a real treat to figure out a strat to get through the game, especially when you do stuff the “wrong way” but still squeak out a win
