    There is one case in which this is not true: "Bonus Map" Spotpass DLC characters can support with you.

    The first one,
    Gangrel? Evil kind of Plega?

    He can be the father of your son

    This will continue to be true for another three or four characters, each of whom is great from what I can tell

    That is not a legacy character.

    I spotpassed with a girl on the transit and her team has so many nice items and evenly leveled characters. I think that's a result of being on Hard mode though. Everyone else has wildly varying leveled parties...right?

    Well...you want to try and distribute xp evenly to your party so that no one is a burden usually.

    The largest number of units you'll field is 15, and that's the very last chapter.

    oh my god how did I miss this thread

    I have been playing this game for in excess of 100 hours now because I absolutely love fire emblem and this is probably my favorite one to date

    wound up crafting a team of 4 sorcerers, 4 sages, a dancer and a rally user just so I could throw Mire spells around and oneshot people

    if someone gets within 2 spaces of my team I have done something wrong

    What's the max prior to that point in the game? I'm only up to Chapter 6 right now, been grinding Risen to try and get Donnel up to speed.

    This might actually get me to buy a 3ds. Love the fire emblem series. And thank god you can turn off perma-death in this one, because fuck endless reloading.

    Varies. Anywhere between 6 and 12 depending on what chapter you're in. It's not a linear progression, but the game always gives you a couple of units you can use to finish filling out your ranks if you need them, even right at the end.

    Definitely keep raising Donnel, though, he's a monster. You odn't need to worry about switching him to Mercenary until he's about level 20 or higher. He'll max out most of the important stats except Res

  • drp527drp527 We sacrifice our own That more may rise in their placeRegistered User regular
    I swapped my Donnel out at 20 when he capped speed at 19, since I figured he needed more avoid (I try to get as much avoid as I can on people)

    he proceeded to cap out basically all his other stats by level 10 mercenary and so I promoted him immediately to hero

    Yeah, once your character has hit 2-3 caps you're probably going to want to promote regardless of level, assuming you still can.

    So, obviously I'm gonna have to get this game, but first I have to ask, is an XL worth it?

    I don't feel like it is but I want to be sure.

    Unless you're actually using the 3DS as a portable system that you'll want to keep in your pocket, the XL is pretty much better than the regular 3DS in every way

  • drp527drp527 We sacrifice our own That more may rise in their placeRegistered User regular
    yeah I drag mine around everywhere in my pocket so I prefer the original

    but if you're only ever using it at home or something I could see the XL being preferable

    the exception to this is health, which does not change at all

    hp will cap at 60 first class and 80 second class/special class for all characters I believe

    Also, you can use this page to figure out what each character's max stats in a class are.

    I still hold that the XL looks a bit odd in the screen area because of stretching stuff out

    but I might just be crazy/have not seen it enough/want to not be sad that I have a regular 3DS because I ent upgrading to an XL when I barely play the thing as it is

    So can you only get more weapons by buying more of them?

    I'm not sure why I would forge a weapon that is gonna disappear any second now

    forging weapons really isn't worth it unless you have someone running around with Armsthrift (level 1 mercenary ability) and high luck (if you can hit 50 luck, either through leveling up (only a couple people get this high) or pairing up or stacking stat boosting abilities, your weapons on that character will never degrade again)

    you can get more weapons by buying them or by enemies dropping them, though when I play these games for 90% of them I will use nothing above the lowest level weaponry because it has the most uses and also is super cheap to replace

    edit: also, when you can train someone to be good enough in staves to use it and also find one, Hammernes are a one-use staff that restore all uses to someone's weapon

    Donnel's ability that gives him +20% to all stat growths makes him absolutely incredible

    I just wish he had better abilities to choose from (though Armsthrift and Sol are still amazing)

    You think reclassing him at 10 is good?

    Imagine reclassing him after 15 when he learns the skill Underdog, which means he gets +15 to Hit AND Avoid if he's a lower level than the enemy

    i wanted to get him to Hero super quick but yeah, i might wait next time and get him Underdog

    promoted classes are weird (they count as level+20 for all level-related calculations afaik) but even still, hella good

  • Mr. GMr. G Registered User regular
    Regardless, Donnel is the guy who most benefits from extra levels for the stat gains

    He has the most health, strength, speed, skill, and defense of any of my units WITHOUT even pairing up
