7) The DLC/Spotpass "Legacy" characters have no supports at all: they're just spirits or some thin excuse. You cannot hook up with Lyn or hit on Hector.
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

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.
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.
This is a spoiler in case anyone cares about party size
The largest number of units you'll field is 15, and that's the very last chapter.
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.
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

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
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

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.

ArtreusI'm a wizardAnd that looks fucked upRegistered Userregular
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

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

Also several more best characters
This game has a hell of a cast
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

The stat will turn green.

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

i reclassed him to Mercenary at 10 and he is just murdering stuff

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

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