Sup Forums plays Fire Emblem 9
What's going on?
>I'm playing through Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, taking inputs from you

>no restarts for lost units, barring game overs
Previous threads:
>Which game is this?
this is Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, the first (and only) fire emblem game released on the Nintendo Gamecube.
>I'm new to Fire Emblem. What's a good game to start with?
Fire emblem: The Blazing sword(aka Fire Emblem in the USA) is a fantastic starting point, featuring a comprehensive tutorial. Alternatively, Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones also has a briefer tutorial and is all around easier.
>I heard this series is just shitty waifu pandering
that's Awakening and Fates.
>what does each stat do?
HP-health. lose it all and your unit dies(permanently)
STR- how much damage you do with physical attacks. this is augmented by your enemy's DEF and your own weapon's MT. In Path of Radiance, STR functions similarly to how CON did in older games, determining how much you're burdened by your weapons.
MAG - how much damage you do with magic tomes, staves, or magic weapons. This is augmented by your enemy's RES.
SKL- your chance to hit with attacks, as well as score crits
SPD- if your SPD is high enough, you'll be able to double-attack enemies, also affects your chance to avoid enemy attacks.
LUK-affects accuracy and avoidability, and reduces enemy crit chance.
DEF-affects defense against physical attacks
RES-affects defense against magical attacks
CON- unit's weight. this affects who they can rescue or be rescued by, as well as whether or not they can shove or be shoved by a unit.
>Why are you so shitty?
I'm impatient.
Game Over/Reset count: 3
Oh shit I'm here on time.
nailah a qt
Yes she is.
Hello OP.
Is it time for the endurance chapter?
Can you get your boss to sell me into slavery?
not yet. this is the desert level.
subtle foreshadowing?

>You will never know what it's like to get railroaded into the stupidest plot contrivance imaginable Prince Reyson
Literally the best character. I like his theme in the next game better, though.
MAKALOV MVP
to be fair, assuming that's what he's referring to, that's some DAMN GOOD, DAMN subtle foreshadowing. A single comment that one wouldn't possibly recognize...hell, that's actually the first time I noticed it.
I feel the flute adds too much to it. keeping just the organ was fantastic.
Every guy named Oliver is great.
This is an unspoken rule in videogames.
I only recruited Makarov so I could have the pleasure to send him to die afterwards.
Get max BEXP.
Stefan is not needed.
How in the fuck do you get 0 bexp in that level jesus christ.
>not getting his sword and giving it to Makalov
>then used his amazing luck to prove he deserves a spot on the team
Didn't his first level was just Mag? Or was I just dazed from how late it was?
I wasted a lot of turns because I thought the tigers and boss actually moved on hard mode
it was just skl
then he connected 3 times against enemies that would double and one-round him and got a good level.
Doesn't the game show you enemy movement range?
does mist get her B-rank with Rolf?
It shows enemy move range even if they don't actually move.
not in a fog of war map, it doesn't.
but it will show movement range even if the enemy doesn't move.
I knew where the tigers and boss were, so I spent several turns inching forward, waiting for them to attack.
Long as her A is saved for Jill sure
let Mordecai cuck them both
No
Thad be nice if mordie made it onto the team more often, wouldnt it?
How should Rolf be with? I honestly really like him and used him to the end
Is it a kingdom that's causing the problems in the world secretly because it has a fight club curse that turns you into dead bubbles just for talking about its existence? If not then it's not the stupidest plot contrivance imaginable.
Who*
Marcia, but since shes perma benched, noone
normally I'd pair him with marcia, but she's again lost in a time matrix.
youtube.com
I hope you use Oliver in Radiant Dawn, assuming you'll be doing that one next.
Time for Mordekike to rejoin the team.
That's why I asked. Since somehow she got schrodingered
alright, we'll hold off on that support for now.
should boyd support brom?
Dubs and you have to use makalov to kill ashnard
Yes
Yeah, sure.
Isn't it hard mode?
This Rolf is doomed even further into his canon end; Alone forever.
Yes
literally impossible.
Actually nvm I don't think non-Ike, non-dragon, non-laguz royal can hurt Ashnard even in normal mode.
:(
>Boyd can support Brom
Do it. I didn't know they had a support.
>Dubs and you have to use makalov to suicide on Ashnard
FTFY
That's right. He can't be hurt at all unless it's by those people.
Although. Ashnard does oddly lots of quotes for said people who can't actually hurt him either. Which is neat.
Brom: Good morning! I'm Brom. I take it you're with the Greil Mercenaries?
Boyd: Well, if it isn't the imprisoned papa! I'm Boyd. And I'm one of the original Greil Mercenaries.
Brom: Oh, that's swell! You know, you fight pretty well for someone so young.
Boyd: Young? Ha! You're one to talk! I mean, look at you, pops! We had to bust you out of a prison, and you're STILL a big fatty! How do you fight with a body like that? Doesn't all the jiggling slow you down?
Brom: Aw, you're right... I know it could be trouble during a big battle. But this body has served me well! After all, you need a lot of girth to manage a mule and plow!
Boyd: You're a farmer, pops?
Brom: That's right! But I hate to think that my big belly would be a burden on you... Aw, now I feel terrible! Sniff... Sniff...
Boyd: Wha--? Hey, don't cry, pops! Look, let's start working out together! I'll whip you into shape in no time!
Brom: Really? Do you mean that? That would be great! Whip me into shape, Boyd! Oh, my wife will be so surprised!
yeah, only tibarn, giffca, ike(and only with ragnell), and nasir can hurt ashnard.
Ena
here's a nifty hint about a certain secret, and the hidden items in the next chapter!
Oh shit negros how have I not seen any of these threads?
solo Ashnard with Naesala
To be fair that's basically the end for 70% of the RD cast, poor shipfags
>Boyd getting ripped with papa Brom
Now that i think about it, does the game ever make any mention of Stefan for that chapter?
Boyd is an excellent wingman.
I don't think ena can get enough STR to hurt ashnard, especially on hard mode.
Yeah. I don't know why but Rolf really helped me out and hate to see him alone.
>strange figures wandering the dunes to the northeast
Naesala's too weak.
Care to show Mist and Ike's stats? Want to see how far away Mist is at overtaking Ike in Strength.
didnt think about the NE part of that, welp.
Ike is not having ANY of makalov's bullshit.
current Ike and Mist
Do we get input on forging?
I forgot this happened 10/10 Ike.
>Wrath + Resolve
It can be done.
Ike really needs to get his shit together.
>rare moments of ike being a smart asshole
always the best
Ike is that nigga. Makalov BTFO.
I've never even seen their support, take it to S class.
Average lvl 18 Ike is 31 HP, 13 Str, 14 Skl, 15 Spd, 11 Def. His Ike is above average.
>Brom compliments Boyd on being such a good fighter at such a young age
>Boyd responds by immediately making fun of his weight
He must have learned that from Shinon
Just a few more levels and she will soon peg her brother.
>S
>He doesn't know.
That's a pretty fucking strong Mist, too bad she can't use Alondite in this game
>Corrin: Don't worry Makalov! I repaid your entire debt with the Kingdom's reserve! Plus, since I know you have a gambling problem, I've decided to increase your pay! And if you have any problems with debt, I'll pay it off myself!
>Marx: No Corrin that's a dumb idea don't do that.
>Corrin: You're right brother! I'll make sure to not be so foolish and trusting from now on!
>He don't know
>Marx: No Corrin that's a dumb idea don't do that.
Marx would never say Corrn did something dumb, hed praise Corrin for their trust in deadbeats.
Ike knows soren better than anyone.
>They don't know
>Who we be
>Mist pegging Ike
My curiosity has peaked, and so has my dick.
>subhumans hiding their faces
dirty thieves.
>peaked
piqued**
I could have sworn that he does a couple of times in Revelation.
Lookin', but they don't know who they see nigga
thanks nigger
Bad user.
any party changes?
i think he does but not without following it right up with praise. mostly exaggerating anyway
Use all the paladins.
Yeah I think you're right. Sometimes where he shouldn't. No wonder Corrin doesn't learn shit.
Looks fine
Why should they, the hoshi/nohr family will always be there to solve any possible fuck ups made by Corrin, with love.
Mist got all the good genes and left Ike in the dust. Best to just have him lay down and surrender wholeheartedly.
She isn't that wholesome and you know it.
She's a beginning slut
Mist pegging magical girl Ike when?
But user Nigger deleted that version of Ike.
Shit, you're right. That's a damn shame.
Sothe and Nephenee for the christmas knights
