Slight correction on the healing by attacks, eirika and Ephraim's ring can provide healing on attacks by either cycling to Ephraim with night and day or by engaging. Only works on player phase though

[@conorb.1901]

The thing that baffles me about Ephraim and Eirika is that they are propped up as "tanking vs damage" but Eirika does more damage than Ephraim does when enemy defense is above a certain threshold. So in reality they're "damage+tanking vs healing+slightly less damage." Obviously when engaged that goes out the window since you benefit from both versions of the skills, I just find it odd that Eirika is pretty much just better than Ephraim unless you specifically need his healing ability

[@technogamer1686]

@@conorb.1901 Ephraim got shafted incredibly hard

[@conorb.1901]

@TechnoGamer16 not only is Ephraim pretty much worse than Eirika when the enemy meets an extremely easy def threshold, he is literally only in the engage attack from what I've seen. I'm not even an Ephraim fan and I agree that he got super shafted.

[@HakureiIllusion]

It's more defensive than offensive but Ike's Great Aether can heal as well

[@nacitalatincirli793]

Doesn’t the divine dragon get a bit of healing with divine speed?

[@FlameUser64]

I like putting Micaiah's ring on a certain character who's technically midgame spoilers. Her unique class's skill, World Tree, gives her a Dex% chance to not expend a staff use, and her Personal Skill gives her +1 range with healing staves. 11 range Physic is usually unnecessary, but being able to Rewarp groups of allies and Freeze enemies while having those staves last a little longer is very nice, since there are limited quantities of them in the shop.

[@NoCryinRyan]

Definitely one of the best rings, especially on early Maddening where combat EXP gain is restricted; Great Sacrifice is such a great source for weaker units to catch up or making your good units better. As for your guide videos on Engage, I think a format similar to your XC2 guides would be beneficial; what makes Emblem Rings unique from each other, what skills complement their play style and where to get them, which unit types should equip them, and, of course, a demonstration.

[@lenia272]

its pretty nice having a unit miles away from danger getting more exp then anyone else, specially if they are under leveled and in great need of exp without being a liability.

[@skyeazura3593]

You are now a fire emblem channel.

[@RaptureSR]

Not sure that this is the strongest tech involving emblem rings, but it's certainly very good one I hadn't considered. The Hold Out skill with Nosferatu is a hilarious combo I haven't seen people talking about yet. I'll definitely be giving this a shot on a certain squishy late game unit on my current maddening run. I think this is definitely in the running for best ring on maps where warp strats greatly reduce the difficulty. On maps where you need to rout or hold a position, I think the Lucina ring edges this one out because it enables backup spam and can make a squad of invincible units the AI will actually attack that you can throw into a choke point or use as bait. The Corrin ring is also in the running for enabling ridiculous evasion builds and having a nasty debuff for tough enemies.

[@lenia272]

somewhat agree but those 2 rings as busted and broken as they are really only have one thing going for them making them a bit 1 trick pony's, i feel the Miciah ring has so much versatility and diffrent aproaches and how it can be used. and honestly EXP farming with it alone puts it ahead of most of the others IMO exp is extremely precious on maddening.

[@Dharengo]

I am still very early in the game. I am simply enjoying the fact that I only have to field a single martial monk while still having a second staff user. I kind of expect that aspect to fall off a bit when I finish promoting units to get more staff users, but it might have a niche use by giving staff access to a mage knight, which incidentally gets to combine high movement with increased staff reach.

*Sniff* I miss nosferatu just being a playable tome. In 3 houses I put it on my best dodge tank and he could essentially solo every map. (Subbed for the FE content btw I love this series!)

[@MrAgility888]

One thing I would say about these guides is to try and keep them consistent. I know you need a bit to get a feel for everything but all your class guides for Xenoblade 3 follow the same pattern which makes it easy to follow from one video to the next. If you do more videos on rings or characters, just keep the format consistent.

[@EnelXC]

Yeah I'll try my best. If I do more I kinda like the general ring format I did here.

[@ausnik]

Damn, this is insane. This will make ma Olwain Thunder +5 with a Ike's Radiance engraving insane, plus anyone with Celica and echo cast, and then redance with Byleth and do it all over again. Also dropping a Tiki Revival Stone on a hard hitting tank like Diamant, who can pull off Ike's Great Aether and then multi warping into a swarm of enemies to have him unleash for massive AOE damage is going to be something I'll play around with.

[@APocketMonster]

Mic's even more broken in postgame when you can forge Nosferatu. I can't believe they buffed it from Fates. And with skills like Hold Out, Vantage, and Divine Pulse (to avoid misses) it becomes even better. And a note: Griffins have insane magic and speed caps so they're great for Nosferaru tanking even postgame trials with ease aside from 3 range enemies, which you can just kill on player phase. I've been running a Hold Out/Wrath Griffin in the trial maps and it can take care of a large portion of the maps in a few turns. If only Mic was half as broken in Radiant Dawn lol

[@alexisdipoalo9443]

does this game even have a post game? far as i can tell only thing to do afterwards is the tower and replaying the final map ( which admitly is more than most fire emblems but... hardly anything to make forging in the post game noteable )

[@APocketMonster]

The highest level trial maps have stat capped enemies with lunatic AI. Not as fun as Awakening's hard DLC map imo but still fun to make great combos to run through it. Forging good emblem weapons speeds the process up significantly too, especially for completionists like me lol. And who knows maybe a future DLC map will pull no punches.

You should do a video on the Byleth ring for mystical users. The +2 range for tomes means units with high magic can pick off enemies with Thunder tomes from really far away

Wait, Byleth ring gives +2 range to tomes? Holy crap, I legitimately had no idea lmao. I'm going to make that change in game real quick.

[@conorb.1901]

I don't know, I think Byleth works best with dragon classes because of Dance of the Goddess. As funny as I think 5 range thunder would be, a four man dance with +4 to all stats is extremely tempting

[@stormnightmare4378]

@@ExImperialDragon Fair warning, it doesn't apply to every tome user. If they are in a flier or cavalry class, they won't be granted the +2 (they get different weapons from Byleth instead). So it won't work with Ivy or Hortensia (or any mage knight you might have). It only works with mystical units like Céline (as the original commentor mentioned).

[@samkeiser9776]

Ditch the thunder tome and just use elfire if you ask me, you can still double with it.

[@samkeiser9776]

@@conorb.1901 yeah but dragon units use any ring well, personally I prefer using Corrin because the versatility is insane, and because Celine’s role is basically perfectly complimented by Byleth. Thyrsus allows her to snipe with her magic, and trigger aegis/pavise, which she has just enough bulk to actually take hits and potentially activate it. While still benefiting greatly. Varja mushti’s damage is (strength+mag)/2 and can hit either defensive stat, and Celine has both decent strength and magic, so she makes it work, and has up to 4 chances to activate ignis. Sword of the creator is 1-2 range physical damage sword that she can do a ton with due to it scaling off her strength like normal while also scaling partly off of magic. Most importantly though, Celine Byleth is really fun to use.

[@nesmontou2393]

Yeah it's either her or Byleth for the best since Goddess Dance is what it is, the staff applications are incredible. I really like giving Staff Mastery for freezes since I think that and your Magic are the only way to increase accuracy, and the skill is super cheap in SP, I think this skill honestly might be an argument for earlygame healers in tiering since they can get it before ch10 while Ivy and Hortensia have to wait for you to get Micaiah back I didn't think about Hold Out LMAO but that seems a bit sus on Maddening, i don't trust the accuracy or enemy res being low enough (also oof 2000 SP)

[@ryexanuri7604]

Iirc magic doesn’t affect staff hit rate, only Staff Mastery does.

[@celestialspark5697]

Corrin is probably stronger than either of these. 3 range attack + Corrin + dancer literally just immobilizes the entire enemy army until you win. You single-handedly turn situations with seven grouped enemies charging at you on horseback into free exp fodder. The Hold Out + Nosferatu combo immediately kills the user if they miss their counterattack and had a fairly decent chance of not even working in this video because of this, and it's not really anything special next to stuff like Dance of the Goddess or other juggernauts like Panette + Ike.

[@Stachelbeeerchen]

Some of the rings are balanced. then there is this and Sigurd. Sigurd just giving your units extra move just for equipping, but the Bond just turns this into maximum overdrive.

[@Kasaaz]

And here I was doing ridiculous math early on trying to make this work with the Marth(?) skill that heals you when you are at less than 20% and it was being really difficult... I guess I just need to get more rings.

[@conorb.1901]

That skill of Marth's actually works pretty well with Roy. Since Roy is guaranteed to survive at 1hp, you'll just heal back whatever you need to survive again.

[@DigitalStarry]

Personally I think Sigurd or maybe Byleth ring is the best ring Sigurd ring has the best availability of the three and canter is incredibly strong and good on basically every unit in the game. It really can’t be understated how stupid good it is to be able to reposition yourself after every action. You can have Seadall go in the range of an enemy and bow out. You can take turns whacking a boss without blocking someone. You can line up characters perfectly for a goddess dance or AoE staff after they attack an enemy. You can use it to have effectively +2 mov when mov is the strongest stat in the game. Then the ring itself grants +1 mov, +5 mov when engaging which is stupid good. Momentum can also be pretty good for high mov characters to stack extra attack on them. Byleth is top tier cause goddess dance lol. Its saved my bacon so many times being able to dance 3 units + seagall at once.

[@aprinnyonbreak1290]

Agree on Sigurd I don't think it has quite so many optimal applications as a few of the others, but Sigurd is available immediately, and is basically idiot proof. There's no combo, there's no required secondary skill. Just put on the Sigurd ring and you're good to go, self contained great unit.

[@MadaraMikuSan]

I wish I had thought of the Hold Out + Nosferatu combo earlier since I already put vantage+ on my Citrinne which has anti-synergy with this combo.

[@futureddude4250]

Micaiah is definitely pretty good but I gotta say I feel like there’s a good chance corrin could be the best First off just the whole yunaka corrin pairing is completely broken with dodge tanking. Then when you consider that corrin can do an insane amount of different things with dragon vein, just not let people move with their engage attack, give people 15 more health (extra if you inherit the skill), and just completely stops any chain up attacks on the unit. If 30 extra health and no chain attacks isn’t broken boy I don’t know what is

[@blairwilliams3311]

I personally think ike is the best unit when paired the right person. I think his defense and his emblem attack can really save you in a bind

[@conorb.1901]

I do agree that Micaiah is very strong and easily one of the best Emblems in the game (sadly I didn't realize "staff effect range +1" meant exactly what it says until I was on chapter 10, no five tile warp for me), I think Lucina also has a very good argument for first place. Bonded Shield is amazing and her Engage attack can tear pretty much any boss to pieces if you set it up right. Both of them are fantastic though and there's no real reason not to just field both since they each want to be on a different unit type.

[@shinobus.2654]

Disagree completely about Lucina's Engage Attack, it is by far the worst one in the entire game. For it to do any worthwhile damage you need at least 8 allies within 2 spaces but if you're going to be moving that many allies close you may as well just use them to kill the boss instead. There are even bosses that can negate chain attacks or reduce the chain attack chance to 30% which makes the Engage Attack utterly worthless.

[@conorb.1901]

@Shinobu S. we'll agree to disagree, because chain attacks bypass defenses (as anyone who threw Ike into a group of backup units can attest to), you don't actually need that many allies in range of the boss. You still do a regular attack so you only need your attack plus as many allies as needed. Since bosses on this game tend to require many units to attack them anyway, having your units grouped up isn't actually that big of a problem. The only boss I've seen that really screws with chain attacks is the final boss, but he's pretty easy anyway and you have a much better emblem for killing specifically him by that point. In my opinion, the worst egage attacks are Roy's, Leif's, Eirika's, and people are probably gonna harp on me about this, but I don't think Ike's is very good. Astra Storm only barely escapes the bottom in my opinion because it's got such a large range that I can take potshots or remove a problematic flyer with it.

I think Corrin is the best ring. A grid of "can't move" debuff along with a dancer means you can disable a huge number of enemies even if you miss every turn for 4 turns. This makes the game very easy, and lets you give xp to whoever you want to, taking your time to pick them off.

[@foxfox1422]

Micaiah is definitely a solid ring, but I think the best ring (aside from DLC because Tiki is just broken and gives +15% growths to all stats) has to be Byleth. The reason for this just comes down to action economy like most FE games where your dancer is the "best" unit by just giving your best unit another turn. And Byleth does this for all four surrounding allies. In a game where you need to deal with annoying bosses with multiple health bars this can easily save you from having to deal with them over multiple turns. Also Sigurd. That man makes you zoom

Honestly most rings can be so borken if used right. Louis with Lyn if they are no casters in range, Ike and Sigrund can wipe out entery armys by themselve and celica's warp is well, lets just say with her and micaiah you can clear (almost) every defeat the boss in one turn.

I’m curious about your Anna build 🤔

[@RaidenKaiser]

Have you ever tried using this hold out cheese on etie? I think she gets a buff everytime she heals so i wonder if it stacks and if it does if you can do this on repeat until she has max strength and just one shot lol.

[@EnelXC]

I actually just straight up have Roy on Etie in my playthrough LOL

[@RaidenKaiser]

@Enel I mean have you tested to see if the skill etie has stacks lol. Be kinda hilarious if it did. I mean I know it's technically pointless since bosses usually have more than one health bar but still a funny gimmick to think about.

[@Quantris]

I think Etie's skill only procs when she heals herself with an item.

[@pencilcheck]

oh really??? i am putting micaiah on jean, and getting yunaka to inherit skills from marth first. I hope i'm doing it right.

[@Ash_Wen-li]

Rewarp bombing is hilarious

[@Orcawsom]

you said this video shouldn't have any story spoilers but at 5:24 you show the final emblem ring

[@EnelXC]

I'll fix that in future videos, that completely slipped my mind when I was making this.

This strat sounds broken 😂 I love it👌🏽 Speedrun Fire Emblem Engage

[@zakv5057]

I've been watching since XB2 content. i like your content and ideas. but as a long time fan of FE, i really am more of a maddening kind of guy. I hope you try maddening and adjust these strategies soon. fixed growths and limited exp of maddening makes this harder. AND the inflated stats and levels of enemies in maddening might make them deal more damage and double your units more consistently.

[@yansentang2341]

Wait... How do you get warp stuff when the shop didn't have one?

[@Quantris]

I don't know if the AI would know to do this but this combo fails against the weapons that attack last (e.g. iron blade). And of course tomes can be broken by arts. So watch out for those in addition to longbows

[@levobertus]

I agree with most of the points, especially the warp utility, but I'm gonna hard disagree with the Nostank strat. Engage has a bunch of enemy compositions that have 3 range and backups that this won't work against, making this less universally applicable compared to other methods. It also costs a ton of SP to get hold out (2k SP), which could be spent on other, more useful skills. Seeing as you use Citrinne, I got canto from Sigurd for 1k, then speed+4 from Lyn and classed her into mage knight to keep her doubling even with Bolganone. With canto and mounted move, I was just much more flexible and she could be anywhere she was needed. I could also use Dire Thunder on her and instead give Micaiah to a more suitable unit like Hortensia, who's an excellent staff unit. She can't Nostank, but in every other regard, she's the better Micaiah ring user due to her personal skill and personal class skill, S-rank staves and flying utility. Nostanking attracts enemies better than 0% hit or 0 damage setups like Yunaka and Louis in maddening, but I found you can modulate avo rates to cleanly be single digit so enemies would still attack you, but the chance of eating multiple attacks is still

[@marcgomez8391]

The devs were aware Nosferatu tanking is broken in every FE game so they made sure to give it to an Emblem Ring since they're meant to be broken lol

[@Pikachufan-hz4xb]

Micaiah: You couldn’t live with your own failure, and where did that bring you? Back to me.
