What's going on? >I'm playing through Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, taking inputs from you >I'll be asking for input on who gets used, who gets stat items, etc.
>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. >Are you playing Radiant Dawn next? no. tacthack user posted a demo for me, I'll be playing that first--THEN I'll be playing RD.

Jaxon Diaz
FUCK EM RIGHT IN THE PUSSY.
Levi Gray
Have you beaten every FE game Nigger?
Isaac Barnes
...
Lincoln Bennett
no. I've beaten 6,7,8,9,10, and awakening. I hated shadow dragon so I never finished it, and never played much of the NES/SNES games, and I don't have fates yet.
Jeremiah Clark
breaking news: an attacking army causes forts and towns to become battlefields.
Cooper Morales
I heard some user was having trouble with their tacthack rom?
Caleb Ross
you should really give 4 a go, though im not sure itd be a good lp game. Siggy's run aside, maps can just take way too damn long
Nathan Cox
>he hasn't played Seliph's game and inspired hope and courage across Jugdral
SHAKE MY HEAD F A M
Elijah Diaz
Mad King Ashnard is crazy? Fucking SHOCKER
Isaiah Rogers
yeah, siggy gave up because nobody cared and it made for a terrible LP.
I might give 12 a go at some point.
Xavier Perez
its understandable, it can take minutes for some turns to end and alot of maps are spent more on simply moving to the action rather then being in it. Best to be played alone -maybe- streamed. 12's much more lp friendly thread wise. Though your lp list is pretty packed for atleast a good couple months it looks
Robert Johnson
Soren telling it like it is. I'm sure none of the Crimean nobles will object when Elincia inevitably takes the throne.
Charles Gray
yeah.
and that's assuming I keep playing Fire emblem and not try another game for LPing, or my schooling/employment doesn't interrupt my playing.
Angel Phillips
Because Sup Forums will cry that waifus ruined FE yet NO ONE talked about the new translation for 4.
Jacob Evans
afaik the waifus in 4 are much less pandering than in awakening/fates.
Nicholas Wilson
...
Colton Reed
>talking about old games everyones played, instead of bitching about current stuff
though im surprised we didnt bitch more about name changes, but i guess that's cause that fire died out by then since we thrashed it out numerous times when awakening released the "correct" names.
They barely have any character at all outside maybe 3~4 to be fair, just enough to be an archetype and that's it.
Jace Perry
should I beef up neph some?
Adam Baker
nigger if you're open to other games i'd like to suggest bleach, the 3rd phantom, shit's like (even more) weeaboo fire emblem and i liked it so after tacthack and rd you can play it
Logan Cox
I was thinking maybe something other than an SRPG. maybe an old FF or tales?
Benjamin Jackson
Shining Force maybe?
Ethan Turner
kinda doubt tales would work too well honestly.
Julian Howard
Whoops thought you said you wanted another SRPG.
Cameron Perry
choose the party layout, showing off the story... not alot of people have played tales games before symphonia.
Jonathan Walker
WHAT
ABOUT
Touhou Puppet Dance Performance
Camden Gutierrez
Do it.
Nathaniel Cook
Seiken Densetsu 3 Basic Kevin solo run. DO EET NIGGER!
Landon Wood
I personally would love to play FE4 and 5 but there's just too many mechanics and I don't really want to spend a few days planning everything out ahead of time. Like finding the best paring. And FE5 menus I think are still fucked.
Maybe they will remake one of them next. Not the best thing because of how FE is going but I still would like it.
Carter Gutierrez
gameplay just doesnt come across as well is all, and a lot of tales have a pretty limiting party layout for the 1st, oh i wanna say atleast 3-5 hrs minimum, just something i think better suited to streaming personally.
Owen Clark
Shit, my Kurtis is nowhere near on track to end up like that. Anyway, I still can't complete chapter 13 due to permanent black screens interrupt the dialogue. Any chance of that having been fixed?
Benjamin Sanchez
Fe4 mechanics are fairly simple and serenes has a little pairing guide you can use, the games piss easy after the 1st few chapters in both gens, even if you get the secondary kids by not pairing/killing the mothers, biggest loss there is holy weapons
Julian Lee
I don't know if I really want to become a streamer though. My...I guess fanbase for lack of a better word is exclusively here on Sup Forums, and mods ban for stream adverts.
also, am I powering up neph or not?
John King
Do. It.
Nolan Ortiz
>A kevin solo of SD3 user pls, Kevin is baby mode
Logan Wilson
i know, just saying tales is kind of limiting to me, an early ff as you said has more possible potential.
Hudson Brooks
As much as people seem to hate it you could try out FF2. I personally love that game honestly. Just need to have a solid idea on how to do things. True. Guess the other problem is just how annoying the maps are. If a character does have a horse you have to waste so many turns. I guess that's one of the reasons I would like to see a remake of FE4 since you can just par up and don't have to worry about babysitting the non horse units.
Adam Parker
always power neph
Dominic Perez
Fanbase is too kind a term. We are the captive audience who is here just because This Is Hell And We Cannot Leave. This Is Hell And We Cannot Leave. This Is Hell And We Cannot Leave.
Dylan Hill
Where in the dialogue, if you don't mind me asking.
Brayden Sanchez
People overrate the length of time a bit, its only a really limiting factor for ardin. everyone else, while not at horse tier speed will keep up decently enough. Games still long map wise though, no question there, but its offset by there only being 10 chapters, its about the length of a basic FE game overall.
Ryan Gutierrez
I honestly hate streamers. Text LP are much more enjoyable for me. If it wasn't so time consuming I would say post some webm. But that's way more annoying than anyone should do for a dumb LP on a image board.
Robert Rodriguez
Everyone has played/knows about the old FFs The again most people in these threads have played FE9 and still enjoy the LP...
Connor White
This exact moment. I can't progress past this point.
Thomas Martin
Power up NephNeph, I wanna see her promoted.
Jacob Lee
I think the problem is also the paring. Since a lot of the horse units par with non. So you are always taking baby steps for a good number of Chapters.
Kayden Sanders
I can't seem to get .webms to work. I did short videos for the last promise on YT, but...
Mason Miller
>yet I thought you were of the opinion Fates is shit?
Pairing doesnt mean much gameplay wise, its a potential lovers crit but that's really it. And pairings will make themsleves really, the game gives you "canon" pairings that will in most cases max themselves out and give you a more then fine enough kid unit in 2nd gen.
Oliver Long
I'm of the opinion the story and characters are shit because literally everything I've seen and heard points me in that direction, and that's how it was with awakening. I've never said anything about the gameplay.
Dylan Russell
even awakening had better supports honestly nigger Gameplay's worthwhile enough though
Andrew Anderson
You better be getting her those stat transfers, she benefits from the initial boost they provide more than almost any other character due to her awkward starting weapons.
Noah Kelly
As I said it's a bit too much work for something like this. If you were doing a SA text LP it might be nice to include. But don't bother with just playing screen capping and showing us.
Ryder Sanders
I must confess that Neph FEELS LIKE A MONSTER
Colton Rivera
...
Luis Martin
>7 points above average in strength
Holy shit
Julian Rogers
thats one of the reasons everyone loves her it may have just been bad luck but she didnt turn out nearly as strong is the sequel though
Michael Smith
Everyone was playing a part to take Jill's place
Gavin Phillips
because averages are not, and should be your go-to for whether or not a unit ends up good.
Kevin Lewis
aw yeah nigga
Brayden Adams
>sleeves STILL not fixed
Levi Ortiz
>because averages are not, and should be your go-to for whether or not a unit ends up good. Yeah instead you should be guided by cherrypicked anecdotal examples of blessings, because it's not like growth rates are hard coded or anything.
Ryan Myers
I'm afraid that didn't fix the problem.
Evan Price
So is Reyson dead yet?
Logan Gomez
no, you should be guided by personal experience, availability, and overall utility in the game.
I mean in FE6 wendy's averages make her seem like a decent-good unit. In practice however, armorknights are fucking terrible in that game.
going solely by averages is what leads people to drop units just because their points are 1-2 points low, even if they've been doing fine.
Michael Cox
what emulator are you using, shouldn't matter but is curious? As a test rename your savefile dropbox.com/s/ulz2z5fhkmuzbt9/TactHackV4.sav?dl=0 Here is the save I am using and I am able to get past that bit.
Gavin Allen
these units were all close to their levelups.
unrelated, who should get a new forge weapon?
Jeremiah Hall
Hell yes
Sebastian Reyes
Just have mist fight the black knight
Elijah Brown
Kieran fo sho
Camden Evans
Give Makalov sword forged with hit and crit
Adam Lopez
Nephenne
A Super Iron Lance
Jason Foster
Do a blind run of one of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms games. Now there's a series that will show you how much of a shit commander you are.
Isaiah Lee
Mist just want to stab a bitch
Wyatt Cook
>I mean in FE6 wendy's averages make her seem like a decent-good unit Please tell me this is a joke.
Justin Cox
Higan
Jose Johnson
Who gets a weapon? Makalov? Kieran? Neph? Boyd? Rolf? Brom?
Gavin Harris
Give Mist a forged knife.
Eli Powell
Makalov
Justin Young
Give Brom a nice new sword.
Jaxson Murphy
>no knife forge for Ilyana
Easton Adams
As far as averages go, these seem like solid stats.
but then you have to factor in how wendy requires babying and starts off absolutely terrible, and armorknights in general being awful.
Ryan Parker
...
Zachary Jackson
Kieran
Samuel Green
M A K A L O V A K A L O V E
Josiah White
Mak needs a new set of dice.
Easton Campbell
Ilyana has a forged knife though.
Jason Clark
Why are you looking at her 20/15 stats as if she will ever reach it? She joins at level 1, nigger. You need to look at how fast she'll progress at average growth if you want to figure out if she is good or not.
Blake Price
it's not hard to level her up.
heck, when I lost her about 5 chapters later, she had more than caught up to the party.
Isaac Young
Learn to read.
Kevin Wood
Makalov
Go for high risk high reward.
Nathaniel Lewis
I have a couple more scans from Kantopia. If anyone is interested.
