Fire Emblem Path of Radiance Playthrough: Part 23 B - Range-Challenged Dragon

[@lazwardazure9669]

36:27 Awakening eat your heart out this door was the first time 80 base HP was seen in the Series

[@BigKlingy]

Lyon had 80 HP as a boss in Sacred Stones.

[@sarahbostrom9358]

Kasatai: "We must defeat the Crimean army and bring His Majesty back to us." Titania: "Yo did you just say the king's not here?" Kasatai: "Uhhhh..."

[@thrasher698]

Speaking of characters with over 100% growths, Shadow Dragon Wolf and Sedgar. Wolf even reaches a 200% HP and 120% Strength growth if you reclass him to Warrior or Berserker

[@BigKlingy]

Oh right, those two. They're fun to use.

[@AzureGreatheart]

The charm staff sounds like a reverse berserk staff: It would probably *prevent* enemies from attacking, meaning it would be very useful for recruiting allies... Which might actually be why they didn't go with it, as that potentially raises questions of how willing the character actually was to join you.

[@AquaLantern]

33:39 I always thought it was funny when enemies do that. Like when you fight Iago in Conquest, he apparently gets Neji's byakugan since he has 360 degree x-ray vision of the ENTIRE palace to use those cheating staves of his! 39:07 That's part of the reason why Pharos in Awakening is so memorable to me, and her cool look, and dialogue with Chrom.

[@BigKlingy]

33:39 I liked the concept of having a powerful staff user constantly harrying you through the map. It's really annoying though. 39:07 She was one of the more memorable "minor" bosses to me.

[@AzureGreatheart]

I actually really like the dismounting mechanics used in _Three Houses,_ because there are situations where you don't want to be mounted, (admittedly that's mainly just when an enemy has mounted or flying effectiveness,) and situations where you do, so having dismounting be more then just a flat nerf your stats for being indoors is really interesting.

[@BigKlingy]

I agree, except for flying classes, where dismounting lets them remove their bow weakness at any time.

[@TheIvoryDingo]

1:52 You'd almost think they were planning on giving him the Magic Lance with that much magic on a general. 5:45 Maybe those are soldiers who were in a different part of the castle/capital who heard the commotion? 11:49 I think you meant XC2 there. 15:00 Dismounting just feels like taking the unique thing away from the unit instead of making the unique feature have both up- and downsides. 48:30 There are four pokemon where I have an issue with their official pronounciations: -Mantine: I get what they were going for (Marine + Manta), but I just think 'Man-teen' sounds dumb compared to 'Man-tine'. -Unown: WHY DO THEY PRONOUNCE IT 'UN-OWN'? 'UN-KNOWN' MAKES MORE SENSE, DAMNIT! -the Mienfoo line: Their designs makes me think that 'Mi-en-foo' and 'Mi-en-shao' are more fitting than 'Mean-foo' and 'Mean-shao' (even if their names and designs are based on ermine). In fact quite a number of how I pronounce certain Pokemon names 'wrong' are because of the anime. Guess it's part nostalgia and part using them for many years (I STILL call Regice 'Regi-Ice' even though I know it's wrong because of those reasons). Arceus is exception because I understand that they don't want the Pokemon God's name to compare him to a donkey. 49:02 Either a General or at least a promotion of the Knight class (like Duessel). 55:14 *Insert White Knight joke here* In all seriousness, he does have one nicely maintained 'stache (he'd be getting many a crits and discounts in the 'Mario & Luigi' games). 1:08:46 It would probably feel like microwaving aluminium in the middle of the summer in Qatar (which is where the next Fifa World Cup will be held... where temperatures can reach above 40 degrees Celsius... because corruption). 1:16:43 Kinda like what they did in Twilight Princess where they didn't obviously make Hyrule Castle look evil like other iterations of it that were final dungeons. 1:18:07 If it has immeasurable power, what makes you think YOU can handle it, dipshit? Why does arrogance always go hand in hand with suicidal stupidity for villains? It makes all of them look as though they are only in power through dumb luck. 1:19:01 I think similar of the Fire Emblem from Fates. It just feels weird to have the Fire Emblem BE an actual weapon to me. (Though for some reason I'm fine with it being a shield) 1:21:16 At this point I'm just wondering why Ashnard is so hell bent on going to war. I know that the war seems to be his end goal, but what is he planning on doing after that? Does he expect the war to go on indefinitely or something? Or is it something that will be explained about him posthumously in RD? Because even Gangrel and Garon had some sort of idea of what to do after their plans came to fruition, whereas with Ashnard I don't really see it yet.

[@BigKlingy]

11:49 I keep calling 2 "X" for some reason. 48:30 Sorry, but I say "Un-own". Because there's no "k" in the name. I don't like "Mean-foo" though. The one that really annoys me is "Vir-EYE-zeon". It's based on the world "Viridian". 49:02 Duessel probably counts, yeah. Although he's a required recruitment, unlike most. 55:14 Tauroneo would definitely have a really high Stache stat. 1:16:43 I really liked Twilight Princess final dungeon. Especially on my first playthrough, where I fully expected the Palace of Twilight to be the end. 1:19:01 Especially since it exists on all routes but it's only called the Fire Emblem on Revelation. Because they had to hammer it in that that's the canon path. 1:21:16 Ashnard's motives get explained later. However, you only get the full explanation if... you let him attack REYSON. Which no sane player will ever do, so that's kind of dumb.

[@quentingaeta9670]

42:40 Speaking of corrosion, the first time I played chapter 12, I was fighting the boss with Ike. He got doubled and the boss procked corrosion both times which broke Ike's laguzslayer.

[@robbieb.6948]

I don't know why but I'm always surprised at how early in Part 2 this map appears; always think it's around like chapter 25. Anyway, this is a pretty cool map in terms of layout and its background is cool too. Yeah the low crit rate for Volke's weapons really hampers his Lethality chance; really wish you could stack Wrath/Gamble on top of it but alas you cannot. Also damn that Xenoblade moment. That happened to me too; Xenoblade does have some mood whiplashy moments that are so unintentional that they're so funny. Also yes, that Torigoth quest. TauroneBRO is here. Stat wise, he's pretty decent having the best Res and Mag of the Generals and good speed (for a general). His great weapon ranks are nice too. RESOLVE IS INSANELY GOOD. Even better in RD bc you can give it to really dodgy squishy units and make them entirely invincible. And Tauro is pretty good in RD as well on his own. Only issue is that he cannot naturally cap any of his stats in this game making him pretty bad for transfer bonuses. Oh Ena. You unfortunately don't have ranged breath, making you a complete sitting duck for ranged units. Ah well. Your stats/skills still LOOK threatening at least. Now a question I've had; since the Laguz Band only works on laguz ROYALS, would it work on Reyson if you hacked it into his inventory? He IS Heron royalty after all.

[@BigKlingy]

It's pretty early, but makes sense since the player won't think this is the end at all. GBA Assassins were fun. Shame you can't do the same thing here. Mock lyrics to that Torigoth music. "We've got Vess' core crystal now But, it came at a terrible cost! But at least we completed the quest And celebrate with out of place Happy music!" RD Resolve sadly doesn't raise Strength, making it not nearly as good. Still funny when Skirimir starts doubling things he shouldn't though. I'm pretty sure it doesn't work on Herons. The Demi-Band is coded to not work on them, remember?

[@robbieb.6948]

Really wish the Kard from RD was in PoR; i would sometimes use a regular knife over a dagger just for the increased crit, especially if Volke was incapable of killing with either, just for the lethality chance. Of course, the Stiletto is just factually the best knife anyway. Those lyrics ring so true; I really like Vess as a character and was a really great healer character. Yeah Resolve did take a hit in RD but it's still good; I usually swap it to Micaiah as soon as possible bc it combos well with her sacrifice and makes her a somewhat reliable dodge tank when supported by Sothe and it usually lets her double most things. I wish that they had taken like, 10% of Micaiah's res growth and put it to her speed growth; 90% res is WAY overkill. Oh right; I'd assume that it'd follow the same formula as the Demi-Band; maybe when you get access to a Laguz band from one of the royals in the final chapter you could trade it over to Reyson and see if it works; haven't tried it myself. Also just a tip, since you cannot access your convoy in battle in this game, I usually stock Reyson (and any other laguz if you bring them) up with some useful items and equipment, since he has no need for any equipment himself aside from bands/healing items. I usually bring staves and effective weapons just in case they are needed in a very speciifc situation and you don't want to consume a space on another unit who may need to carry all purpose strong weapons like forges or ranged weapons.

[@BigKlingy]

RD had some decent knives. Especially the Beast Killer, which was good in general, not just against beasts. I got Vess pretty early, it was good having a secondary healer Blade. I pretty much never used her after getting The Spoiler Chapter 7 Blade though. Sacrifice + Resolve... never thought of that. And Miccy really could've used more Speed, I agree. It won't work, trust me. The devs would've thought of that. And I've heard other mention using Reyson as a convoy.

[@TheJemTeam]

I would be very happy to sing that Xenoblade Chronicles song. I learned the original Fire Emblem opera (the one from the old Japanese commercial) just to sing at a con for laughs.

[@danielm.5078]

8:08 Awakening only has Route the Enemy and Defeat Boss as objectives. And even then, chapter 21 had treasure chests in out of the way places. 14:45 The thing that sticks out is that the supposedly dismounted unit was outdoors, which is what has me leaning towards it being mid-development jank (considering the build in the trailer looks to be pretty early, what with the rough textures and low framerate). 20:20 Here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHTYg6dnqNOtesk Better known as the Super Saiyan Marth theme. 36:40 Soren vs HP capped door: clash of fate. 47:00 Literally Navarre. That's literally Navarre's SD design right there. 52:49 No Ike, Roy's the one who's become a Tales character, not you (something Sakurai actually joked about in an interview in regards to his Smash 4 design. Funnily, both their capes are absolutely shredded in their Ultimate renders while Marth's, Lucina's, and Corrin's are all in pristine condition.). 1:06:35 Hah. Well then. 1:18:06 Said the Dark bag of organs.

[@BigKlingy]

8:08 I know, but that one was kind of an escape chapter. 14:45 Probably. I feel like dismounting is VERY unlikely to ever return. 20:20 Thank you. 36:40 Vox Machina looks on in envy. (Critical Role reference. The group had major trouble with a church door once and doors being their archenemy became a running gag.) 47:00 It's mainly just generic enemy pallets on Swordmasters. 52:49 He kind of looks like one I guess. Funny, I just got done watching a Tales of Phantasia speedrun. Looks like it would've been revolutionary for its time but dated now. Especially with the only plot twist being "the Big Bad actually has motivation". 1:06:35 I don't think I've ever made Ena do that before. 1:18:06 Heh.

[@danielm.5078]

8:08 Plotwise it would've made sense to be one, yeah. 20:20 I literally just googled "Faia Emburem instrumental" to get it. 47:00 Yeah. Though I'm beginning to notice that a lot of generic promoted designs in this game are actually pretty neat. 1:06:35 It's not something you'd expect to happen; an interesting aspect of having 3D map models instead of sprites.

[@BigKlingy]

20:20 I... feel dumb that I didn't think of that. I'll have to watch the lyrics part to see when the singing is supposed to start. 47:00 I like the class designs in this game in general. Warriors are maybe the only exception.

[@lucypoyopoyo]

Compares Janaff to Lucius when Reyson is right there. I love the beautiful blonde boy archetype ^-^ Also I thought you were British when I first found your channel.

[@BigKlingy]

I actually get the British thing a lot. Some Australian accents verge into British-sounding. I'm part Irish and Welsh from both sides of my family, so that might have something to do with it.

[@megarotom1590]

You know when you talked about unfitting music, the first thing I thought of was the dying soldier in ocarina of time

[@starmaker75]

with accents with my country, the most west you go, the more sublte is. in the northwest the accent only nocticable with certain words that sound similar and how procunce states( if want to fight with a oregon person, tried to said oregon different then what they said). funny thing is Australians always sound british then what games, show, and movies said( becuase australia was a british colony duh). one thing I’m learning about linguistics is how accents are localized when comes to different languages.

[@BigKlingy]

The "Australians sounding British" thing MIGHT be because most of the Australian accents you hear are done by British people. And most Australian actors rarely get to use their native accent. It's weird. E.g. Thor in the Marvel films and Wolverine in the X Men films are both played by Australian actors who have very heavy accents normally.

[@starmaker75]

here a another thing I learn about accents, the word y’all is use in all part of usa in a way. I don’t live in the soitheast and once live there and use at times as well other americans, it probably because in the southeast it the most noticeable.

[@ArsSanctum]

22:44 God you have NO idea how much I miss that in more recent FEs. RD is one of my most played games ever so I got too used to every character having unique promoted models, and how different the designs between two units of the same class would be.

[@BigKlingy]

What annoyed me in Fates was that most characters have unique models... for ONE of their promotion options, but not the other. So Effie has her pink armour as a General, but generic blue as a Great Knight.

[@ArsSanctum]

Yes, exactly. I can understand not doing it for classes they cna only obtain through Friendship seals and such, but I think they should have had unique models for at LEAST the second promotion option for their base class line. Also I disagree with you on A Mighty Foe. I LOVE that theme.

[@lisasemarron5413]

For those who don't know. Sothe is from Daein. Then again you will know this later anyway. Zihark is from Daein too

[@Tentaku64]

1:45 14 defense on a Gener- what??? 9:08 There's iron which is Fe on the periodic table. I actually kinda find it funny you can come up with Fire Emblem references from it. 1:07:05 "Sorry Ike, but the King is in another castle"

[@BigKlingy]

1:45 I don't know what they were going for with this guy. 9:08 That's probably what started it.

[@gavinbunting7354]

1:18:12, I feel so bad for Yune in this game, especially since I know what she’s really like in Radiant Dawn. She really doesn’t deserve the reputation she has here.

[@burnerman7384]

....Why does the thumbnail say "part 24A"?

[@blizzardforonline1954]

Burner Man He probably meant 23B instead.

[@leevanying1332]

Hey,Bigklingy I saw that Ike ragnell in heroes say unit will counter regardless of range and that let me if this ragnell is insert into his game,I imagine a ballista shooting him and he counter by shooting sword beam that is so long that it can hit the ballista 'Shoot the enemy general' and ballista shot miss Ike and then the ballistician juat saw a huge sword beam coming at him

[@BigKlingy]

lol, that description doesn't really work in a game where attacks can have more than 2 range. Though I still love that fan comic of Takumi shooting over wall, only for Ike to jump over and start chasing him.

[@leevanying1332]

BigKlingy That is pretty funny but still imagine you are able counter ballista and siege tome.It would be pretty stupid to watch two siege weapon counter each other

I’d love to grab a sandwich but I’m eating now at work and won’t be able to watch the video till I get home tonight. I’m sorry I was not able to live up to your explanations klingo

[@jSilvuh22]

Status staves are never on my side when I play Fire Emblem games. When I try and use them, my prime targets usually have good enough Res to have good enough Avoid to dodge them. When the enemy uses them, I have to play extra carefully to ensure that I don't place my low Res guys in range by accident. In some games, it forces me to play slower than I'd like. In this game especially, I have to keep double triple counting the enemy staff ranges manually, slowing me down even more. I think I smacked two of them in the face with my flyers and baited the last one to use all of his Sleep uses on Tanith's generics. 22:24 It definitely weirded me out when I first promoted Ilyana. Her Sage model looked so different from what I expected, and I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not. 28:10 I remember FE7 did this, which is why I don't promote Matthew or Legault when I play FE7 anymore. Then again, I don't think there's much important to steal after you have access to the Fell Contract, so it doesn't matter much, if I'm correct. 30:19 A funny moment here in my run. For some reason, I legit thought that the stairs in that room were linked to the stairs near Tauroneo, so I placed Ike and Kieran on them, thinking they would go down the stairs and come out the other end the next turn. I was wrong. I already like Tauroneo just because he was friends with Greil and knew the Black Knight. Resolve is great, but I see it taking a while for Tauroneo to activate it because of how bulky he is. I expected a lot more from Ena going into the boss fight, but she perfectly demonstrates why a stationary boss should not be locked to 1 range. And to think she's the first recipient of the 'big boss battle' theme. What an anticlimax.

[@BigKlingy]

Status staves tend to not be all that useful... except one time in RD where Sleep helps out a bit. But that's mostly due to one major boss having terrible Resistance. 22:24 It doesn't really fit and it looks dumb. Thankfully RD gave her her own one. 28:10 Also, you can only promote one Thief in that one, so you always have at least one person still capable of stealing. 30:19 Stairs almost never do that in FE. Except in Notre Sagasse in Fates. Tauroneo is a really interesting character, and one cool thing is he has special boss conversations with almost every boss from now on.

[@OrionTempest1]

I know this is an old comment, but a slight correction: You CAN promote both Thieves in FE7, it's just really not worth it. The last (second last if you go for the sidequest) chapter before the final chapter has a Secret Shop that sells Fell Contracts... ...for 50,000G EACH, making it one of the most expensive items in the game, as well as something most players wouldn't be able to afford without heavy Arena grinding earlier in the game. Said Secret Shop is also within 10 spaces of the end of the map, so your third Assassin has almost zero time to level unless you take them on the sidequest. I'd think it would be neat if they had an Assassin Triangle Attack for the fun of it, though. Would be impractically overkill, but funny. (For what it's worth, I totally ran triple Assassins + Karla + Renault for the final chapter that run. And if you ever do FE7, I hope you take Renault + Legault to endgame for the extra boss conversations/lore in Renault's case. For those unaware, Legault has bonus conversations with Uhai, Brendan, Lloyd, and Linus, while Renault has a bonus conversation with Nergal that reveals some of his backstory.)

[@kirby2325]

8:17 Even though it wasn't EXPLICITLY Escape, it pretty much was. Same for the Tiki Paralogue, just as Defend instead. 14:46 Ike's sword still looks like a lightsaber. It's still ridiculously awesome. 15:36 But it still sucks. 17:53 That sounds like it would only work _against_ the player. Would probably be pretty threatening on a boss or something. 18:09 I think the sparkle just doesn't happen for Hand/Short Axes. It happens with every other axe, but not the throwing ones. 18:53 Yeah, that's dumb. 20:04 Faia Emburem the Musical? I've been on MasterEnex's channel. 21:15 I remember I did choir in my elementary school. I sucked. 22:28 That's really dumb. 23:57 I've heard all about that. Mood Whiplash at it's freaking finest. 28:51 I recall Donnel in Awakening also had over 100% in his HP growth? Or was that Nah? 33:44 The same way you can be detected in the stealth chapters if the enemy's attack range extends to a place that should obscure you from sight. 36:50 Does it heal you?! 37:38 "Does not compute. Does not compute. System shut down." 37:57 And she has a pink lightsaber. It's like if Star Wars was medieval and Leia was younger than Luke and actually trained as a Jedi. 39:17 Except in Rogues and Redeemers 3 where Jaffar will murderate you if aren't paying attention while grinding for Limit Breaker. 53:06 I'd complain about the music already playing, but With Us is so amazing I will take any chance to listen to it for as long as possible. And apparently, this guy knew Greil, which is really cool. 1:06:44 It would make sense if she could turn around dramatically, but..... 1:15:27 And Ike is now dead. Game Over.

[@BigKlingy]

8:17 Complete with the only smart Defend AI in the series: ignoring your units entirely. 14:46 No sound effects though. 18:53 Parity is pretty bad in this game. And I agree, it would be more dangerous on bosses. 20:04 It's hilarious how well it fits Heroes Book 2's opening. And Warriors. 21:15 I did recorder back then. 22:28 What I think happened there is they had a "generic female Sage" concept art, and just recoloured it for the two of them. But seeing as Soren got unique Mage AND Sage models, you'd think she would too. 23:57 Speaking of which, why the heck does Paralogue 4 in Awakening unlock at the same time as Chapter 10?? 28:51 That's Aptitude I think. So it doesn't really count. 33:44 Yeah, that. Which is annoying. Still good that there's no "line of sight" rules outside of fog, because that'd make gameplay really annoying. 36:50 Aether on a door? Ike had full HP that one time so I'm not sure. 39:17 I keep forgetting he has that there. I know he does in Spotpass, but there too? 1:06:44 You'd think she would. She would have it this was a Talk conversation, but it's an automatic cutscene. 1:15:27 Eh, that was just a Shove. Not even a Smite.

[@jdtheba9171]

I remember watching another person lp this and commented on why illyana would where heels on promotion. Enemy sages look like michalis, while the sword masters look like Navarre. Very weird. Hello Taruneo, you'll become much more important later. The Lorenz archetype is probably my favorite of the series.

[@BigKlingy]

A promoted Ilyana here makes Ena VERY fun...

[@Delta_dragon.]

In terms of accents, I don't really have one which is odd because my family is from Ethiopia, but I guess that's what happens when you live in a different country and speak english for basically your whole life and forget the other languages...

And at the same time while I would love to see you play those games, I also want to see you play P4/5 because your playthrough of P3 is literally my favorite one out of any I've seen (p.s. I feel your pain when it comes to the Mikazuki Munecheka).

[@tiffanysparks4668]

Oh hi Tauroneo you remind me of someone in radiant dawn *Wink* 😉

[@absoul112]

I Laughed so loudly after you said you thought Janaff looked more feminine than Lucius. Speaking of accents and language and such, I'm from the south in the US, and there's one word that most of my family and friends use that I never use and that's fixin' (or fitin' as that's what it sounds like they're saying). I not big on grammar, I just don't like saying that. That idea for a Jagen is so funny, I'd love to see it. It actually reminds me of this similar idea I had where you get and Oifey who becomes an enemy at the halfway point in the game and the next time the characters see him, he's the final boss with massive stats. I mostly like to think that most Camus would be like their Lorenz counterparts if they grew older and wiser.

[@BigKlingy]

It's kind of true to me... I always feel bad for people actually from southern US, you must cringe when that accent gets used for anyone "country" in just about any media. Doesn't that happen in one romhack? Also, another idea I had was having the Oifey turn out to be the main villain. This is what I was really hoping Fates did with Gunter, my initial theory was that Gunter was Anankos. Turned out to be not quite true. That's probably true. Granted, this game has an older Camus character who's a General.

[@absoul112]

Since I brought up the topic of men who look feminine, I thought Soren was a girl when I first saw is portrait and artwork, then Radiant Dawn happened and I knew I was wrong.

[@AlejandroRodolfoMendez]

weirdly strange tauroneo means bullfighter in spanish, he is in the hardin archetype

[@BigKlingy]

Lorenz, actually. General who joins later in the game, has a similar personality to Camus but can be made to join, and is often difficult to recruit.

In 90% of cases, a non-boss enemy with a portrait is recruitable, and if no-one in your army has an obvious connection to them, talk with your main Lord.

[@irmatrubura4620]

About Douglas When I played fe6 I had to trade all of Lugh's weapons to Zeiss and hope that A) douglas attacks him and B) he dodges. It actually worked out and I didn't have to restart because he Zeiss and Miledy got cornered. I had to take the weapons away because I have a habit of overleveling my magic users and Lugh would have one rounded him.

Wait wait wait wait wait... ...You're telling me that Burger King and Hungry Jacks are the same thing...? How did I not know this...? I have a friend with an accent like yours. I've lived in Australia since I was born, but my accent sounds more British for some reason. What makes it weirder is that my mum is from Asia and my dad is from South America. My sister does sound American, but that's probably just from media exposure.

[@BigKlingy]

Yes, they're the same thing. I think my dad told me when I was a kid. That's really interesting. I love how many people of different backgrounds live in Australia.

[@tiffanysparks4668]

It still bothers me that Reyson doesn't wanna use his beast form to help him attack. Reyson is just like a pegasus without a wielder to guide and use it for battle

[@mariovsonic999]

Oh man, it's annoying of not seeing staff range, especially since newer games has those. Especially since those bishops doesn't seem to move. I read that there was gonna be Dismounting in Shadow Dragon but wasn't. It's also said that the Avatar was planned for that as well. Isn't it the GBA games that remove stealing for Assassins. Some Troubadours weren't effective by anti-cavalry weapons in some games. I think FE6 as well as Nomad having no effectiveness. I think there's also Conquest map where you fight Hinoka where the DP could either raise flying unit's move and lower everyone else while your does the opposite. Xavier isn't much of a Guide Dang it but more of an annoyance because you have to . I also leave Douglas inside a treasury with Larum because of the fact that Douglas will not attack her.

[@BigKlingy]

You could see staff ranges in the GBA games, so not being able to do so here is strange. Oh right, I think THAT's the game that had dismounting planned, because it had unused "Dismounted Knight (M)" and "Dismounted Knight (F)" classes. I think it is. I remember anti-cavalry didn't work on Nomads in some games. Probably has something to do with them being considered a different unit type from normal cavalry, their horses don't get slowed down as much by rain. That was one, but I'm more talking stopping fliers from flying entirely. Blocking Douglas with Larum is something I'll have to keep in mind in case I play that again. I prefer Elfin though... I feel like Douglas doesn't attack him either?

[@frankseward7017]

0:50 then it's a good thing that the majority of your units have good resistance. Especially ike. 1:51 weird and laughable. 3:00 and once you see the breaths starts, congrats, you've won this chapter. Yay! Also minus 2 for most stats isn't that bad, if I'm being perfect honest. 22:24 yeah ilyanas promoted outfit does not suit her at all. 35:55 which begs the question, why can't we have more 5 supports per character???? 49:01 examples include Xavier, chapter 18 nightmares, Douglas, aka ring around the rosie in chapter 16, Duessel, easier ones. Just have to keep him alive. There's hannibal who you have to purposely avoid to recruit him. And of course the wolfguard. Shudders. Oh and Zeke, SCREW YOU NUIBABA!!!!! YOUR MAP SUCKS!!! 52:06 still nowhere near as bad as Xavier. I don't think ANYTHING will top his recuritment. Also tauroneo-criminally underrated in my humble opinion. Sure he can't naturally cap his stats, but he does have good stats and solid growths and hes serviceable til the endgame like most units in this game. Resolve 8s amazing like you said and he has good weapon ranks to boot. Gatrie and Brom will ultimately outclass him though, but radiant dawn treats him much better in my opinion. 57:21 and Stefan and Titania, dont forget them. 1:13:06 if only you'd had 1 to 2 range. You would've been a real challenge. Shame. 1:21:57 dont apologize. Sometimes a good long chapter can be quite refreshing 9nce in a while. Also next chapters is one of the games best in my opinion. Would you agree?

[@neharanayeema2241]

[@JammedIce]

I'm sure there's an instramental version of Drama's Light (AKA FIIA EMBUREM) Somewhere, but I can't find it on KZbin, and it probably isn't on the OST disc for the game. Burger King shouldn't have renamed to hungry Jack's. It should have been hungry Bruce's. I only just found that sketch. And I had to reference it. Whenever I start doing things on KZbin, the first thing I'm doing is creating Radiant Gear Solid, I'll do a run of Radiant dawn using only Ike, Sorren, Mist and the Thives after the Prologue chapters. And maybe (Spoiler event) during endgame. Each chapter, I have to kill the boss, and kill as few enemies as possible. Why would I do this? Masochism that's why. Oh, and Volke has to learn Leathality. Actually, I'll add in Mia and (Volkes only Support) in as well.

[@BigKlingy]

Someone else sent me a link to it. That'll be good to know. That doesn't really roll of the tongue though. I love Monty Python. There's some sketches I didn't discover until recently, like How Not To Be Seen. Doing a challenge run based on MGS' Foxhound Rank sounds like an interesting idea.

[@JammedIce]

BigKlingy Speaking of music parodies and #FE, I am currently working on a grand finale tune for the Sue Saga, using Finale Ultimo form Little Shop of Horrors as the parody base. I based it off of the Codec people you could talk to rather than FOXHOUND, I think FOXHOUND would be more restrictive actually, let's see, Shinon as Revolver Ocelot, Volke as Solid, Ike as liquid Snake, Stefan as Grey Fox, Janaff as Vulcan Raven, Astrid as Sniper Wolf, Sorren as Psycho Mantis and Sothe could be Decoy Octopus. Actually, I based it off the Codec Buddies, Mist as Naomi Hunter, Ike as Roy Chambell, Mia as Merryl, Sorren as Nastasha Romanenko, (Volkes only Support) as Otacon, and Sothe as... Master Miller. Honestly, I didn't put as much thought as much as I thought I did. Either way, it's an extremely small army to use. I can't wait to try it out.

I don't mind Sakura in that game, though it's not like she has much of a plot role anyway.

[@galladeforce]

Does sleep prevent you from dodging in this game? I know it doesn’t in FE7 which lead to a funny moment in Green Scorpions let’s play of Blazing Blade where Dart was put to sleep in the chapter where you fight Sonia (can’t remember it’s name) while over the water and he dodged everything sent his way. When I first watched you during Fates pre release period I had a bit of trouble placing where your accent was from. Although since it doesn’t really sound like the accent of most English speaking countries I probably should have realised it was an Australian accent. I have been told that I don’t have a very discernible and non stereotypical accent to the point that despite me now living in the country next door I have only been asked where I’m from about twice. Why would the mini boss have 15 Magic if he has no Magic weapons or a skill that uses Magic. I think it may have been confirmed somewhere that Claude and Sylvia are distant cousins. There probably more closely related than most couples are but not enough for it to be really squicky. And talking about FE4 parings if I were to play it/play the eventual remake I have several parings set in stone like Lex/Ayra, Lewyn/Erinys, Azelle/Talitiu, Claud/Sylvia. But who would you recommend gameplay wise for the rest? Those enemy Swordmasters look so much like Navarre it hurts. Like seriously that looks like Navarre,s remake and Warriors official art. I also had a little idea for a Fire Emblem fangame/fanfic of my own where you had two fractions. One a group of bounty hunters and the other a military strike team. The bounty hunters Jaegan/Oifey is a Hero and the strike teams is a Warrior. One idea I had is the Warrior leaves the army in disgust 3-4 chapters in. The reason being that at the end of Part 1 there was a battle between 2 armies one being from a country called Shada and the other being called Taiyu. Taiyu massacred Shada,s soldiers and burned the enemy ships (the massacre happened at a port) however the only Shadian present at the incident who was in the pocket of a Taiyu general set up evidence that implicated Shada and testified that Shada was the aggressor. Shada is really unpopular around the 6 (formally 7) nations of the continent due to their constant use of military pressure for trade negotiations and their tendency to butt into the other countries affairs. So even their 2 allies called Coldera and Rodnovey dislike them and believe the lie to be the truth but Coldera has a vow of aid to Shada and Rodnovey wants Shada to be in their debt so they can get their mitts on Shada’s Ballista Technology. The Warrior learns of this by fighting and killing the Shada Traitor as he says it with his dying breath. What doesn’t help is that his Lord is the Daughter of the Taiyu General who has the Shadian Traitor so for all he knows she was complacent in it and none of his fellow soldiers don’t believe him when he says it so he storms off. He does rejoin later and apologises to her. If you want to hear more next time I can give more info and I would appreciate some feedback. I like Tauroeno (However you spell it) design at least as the off white/light grey just works for him but those stats are just eh for his Level and he doesn’t cap any stats on average so he is not getting Transfer Bonuses without Save Scumming for good Bonus Experience level ups or you feed him stat boosters. He does have in addition to Resolve a decent Magic stat to use the Flame Lance or Sonic Sword better than most physical units.I like him in Radiant Dawn and he was really helpful during 3-13. Tauroeno probably thought that Greil’s fighting style was too based on strength for most woman to pull of or using swords too heavy for most woman to wield. Plus if he knew Ike,s Mother he might also have assumed that Mist took after her. Lack of 1-2 range and a weakness to an entire weapon type is not something you want on a late game boss and Ena has both. No wonder she is an anti climax.

[@BigKlingy]

I'm not sure. I DO know that the pitfall traps in an upcoming chapter don't prevent dodging, while in RD they're a lot more dangerous because they do. My mother's side of the family has Irish roots and my father's has Welsh, so that could also be why it sounds a bit weird. This guy's stats are so weird, I have no idea what the developers were thinking. For everyone else? Adean/Midir or Jamke, Lachesis/Beowulf (Finn is technically canon but I don't recommend it to new players because it's hard to do), Brigid/Jamke, Holyn or Deu. (Jamke is the fastest, the other two are good for her daughter) That sounds pretty interesting. I'd like to see more FE games that don't focus on princes. I find Tauroneo kind of weird in RD. He's stupidly powerful for the chapter you get him at... and he leaves for the rest of part 1. By the time you get him back, he's decent but not amazing. The mother thing does make sense. As far as dragon go, Ena is kind of pathetic.

[@Ramperdos]

Whenever you are describing those hard to understand situations, are you saying "guide dangit", as in you have to use a guide to get those? English is not my native language so I'm not 100% I'm understanding, but the term has come up so many times already I wanted to ask.

[@BigKlingy]

It's a TV Tropes term, it means something that's almost impossible to know without a guide. Sorry about that, I can understand it being difficult if English isn't your native language, since it's a weird pun.

Tauroneo has another bonus: DAT MUSTACHE. I love his porn 'stache. Oh, and I do like using him. It's usually either him or Brom as my endgame General. Brom has more time to grow, but Tauro can run a very strong skill combo. If I'm using some combination of Wrath/Vantage/Resolve, it's usually a toss-up for me as to whether Neph + Tauro, do it, or The Prepromote Berserker.

[@lunaamethyst5724]

I rather like Chapter 19 of Fates Rev in terms of Escape chapters, because you don't have to escape. You can either escape in 20 turns or clone your units and get more EXP and items I think. I've never heard of dismounting before, sounds interesting. Pffff, wow that's extremely unfitting music after that certain moment in XC, that's kinda hilarious though. If you could cosplay any FE character, who would ya cosplay? Yeah that would make sense, and I intend for Zira and Mordecai's supports to be explicitly romantic to lead into Radiant Dawn, so those supports would be canon. Making that medallion the Fire Emblem is pretty cool, though I really like using the Fire Emblem as the protagonist's ultimate weapon in Fates was really awesome. You get a giant chainsaw sword that is on fire!

[@BigKlingy]

There's one in Conquest that's similar. Maps that give you two possible objectives are always interesting, but they're very rare. Dismounting is in FE3 and 5. Also 4, but only for Seliph, and it's pretty pointless. You can choose to dismount to cross terrain easier, but you're forced to in indoor maps. In FE3, dismounted knights could only use swords. (Except Horsemen, who dismounted into Hunters, their unpromoted class) In FE5, dismounted classes used the same weapons as their mounted selves, just with lower stats and movement. Usually. I think some got forced to use swords. Which is why I can't take that song seriously anymore. My first thought was Ike, but that might be difficult. Actually, probably Ced seeing as he's probably my favourite character in the series. The Omega Yato was cool in terms of looks, shame Smash spoiled it. I don't like how it isn't called the Fire Emblem until Revelation though.

[@lunaamethyst5724]

BigKlingy I was thinking Ced for you too since I knew you really liked him. As for me, my main ideas are Henry, Volke, Tanith, and Lyon.

[@arcflamearcanum7579]

Fun fact (one which I tested myself with the power of cheating... don't judge): Even if you somehow get perfect level ups for Tauroneo all the way from 14-20, it is literally impossible for him to cap any of his stats without stat boosters and as such, impossible for him to gain transfer bonuses in Radiant Dawn and he's the only pre-promote in the game where this is the case. Even Lucia and Bastian can get transfer bonuses if you get lucky... That says a lot. Albeit for Bastian it's literally only Strength and Skill... yay?

[@BigKlingy]

That's... interesting. That might be why his bases are so high in RD. Serenes Forest has a table of everyone's "chance to cap" each stat. The later characters have a lot of 0s.

[@arcflamearcanum7579]

BigKlingy A lot of the Laguz won't likely be capping stats either. Though not that it matters considering once you have access to the royals pretty much all other Laguz bar Herons become obsolete.

[@BigKlingy]

It's a shame they suffer from slow exp gains and low-ish growths, because if hacked to be capped a lot of the Laguz are really strong. I've seen a capped Lethe in a forum LP, and she looked like a beast.

[@arcflamearcanum7579]

I overall find it extremely baffling that they thought it'd be a good idea to have a unit that for a set period of turns (which sometimes, is quite a lot of turns), is utterly useless. I seriously don't know what they were thinking with that.

THE END......Congrats on reading all of that 😁😁😂😂

[@robbieb.6948]

Ha. Two of the worst skills in the game found in the same chapter. And the two characters who naturally have these skills (who are also pretty bleh units) both join in the same chapter. Intentional perhaps?

[@BigKlingy]

Don't think so, I'm not sure the developers expected those skills to be as bad as they are. I actually like Corrosion in RD though. There it reduces weapon uses by exactly your level, which means at 3rd tier you reduce uses by 40-60, enough to instantly break most weapons. I like to give it to Sothe, he doesn't kill things anyway so might as well make him cripple them for others to finish.

[@robbieb.6948]

Yeah; only issue is when you end up destroying a droppable weapon and you kick yourself for it. I prefer Disarm as it gives you an opportunity to fully steal enemy equipment. Early on in part two I sometimes reset just to see if I can disarm/steal cheese some good weapons; I believe in that torch cave map there's a guy with a killer lance and it's SUPER GOOD on Nephenee if you steal it from him.

[@BigKlingy]

I guess that can happen. I mostly use it in Endgame, which has very few droppable weapons. I find it kind of weird how the game seems to want you to disarm and steal from the "Volunteers" in 2-1, while the chance of doing so is pretty low and requires you to fight them. (They're worth BEXP if alive)

[@robbieb.6948]

Huh I never knew that about the volunteers. I'll keep that in mind when I reach that chapter in my next playthrough.

[@robbieb.6948]

Really wish that there was an itemized list at the beginning of a chapter of what you need to do to gain BEXP, like how it tells you at the END of a chapter what you did and how you were rewarded; it would be more forgiving to first time players.
