Get Rich QUICK in Fire Emblem Engage - Optimal Anna Money Making Guide

[@VerveFEH]

Thanks for the shoutout brother 🙏 Definitely wouldn't have expected her str growth to be so low, so glad you've informed me for when I use her in my casual playthrough

[@LinkKing7]

Of course dude, I just finished watching the Chapter 10 breakdown, it was veeeeery impressive!

[@goldenson4566]

I mean she is an 11 year old girl. Ignore all the times that actual logic doesn’t work.

[@Shalakor]

Still not as surprising that Boucheron's muscles are all bulk, and almost no actual Strength. Although, the rest of his growths and base stats alongside the Might of Axes does make him more suited to sticking with Axe Fighter than most other options realistically available to him.

[@miponii-chan]

no need to be so formal, you can just call her Lady Anna

[@StairFacts]

I really wish I had known about this strat before I went past Chapter 11 on my playthrough... If you go past that point and haven't already given Anna Staff and Tome proficiency from Micaiah, you're strapping yourself in for a LOT of chapters until you can change her class to High Priest.

[@ceresbane]

its a relatively short game. Skip cutscenes and you can make it back to where you are much faster than your last run. Especially with the given hindsight of managing your resources better.

[@LinkKing7]

Yeah, it's slightly annoying to do if you don't prep for it early, kind of why this video was a bit necessary to get out as soon as I realized the stuff needed to get it rolling

[@StairFacts]

@@LinkKing7 I'm gonna try to shoot for it in the endgame of my Hard playthrough, but this is definitely a tip that I'm gonna carry into Maddening and immediately invest in her lmao

Without spoiling anything, can anyone tell me in which chapter you get back what you lost in chapter 11?

[@LinkKing7]

@@Crackhog You get them back slowly, starting from chapter 17. It's not immediate

[@emmettracine8310]

I'd argue that it's better to stick with Axe fighter for the few levels it takes to reach 10, then promote and second seal to Sage or whatever you want at that point. Micaiah makes the grind for those few levels much more bearable at least, and in the long run this means more time spent in a promoted class with higher growths, as opposed to having to spend an entire 10 levels in the T1 classes.

[@LinkKing7]

I was hearing that today actually, but I was thinking that the 9 levels in Mage/Monk might be more beneficial to the magic potential in the long run to make her kill things faster. In the short term sure, you get the boost earlier, but idk, I'd have to redo the math on that one and see how it balances out.

[@ceresbane]

I just gave her luck +12 and hp/luck +8 and called it a day. I went with fighter, warrior and then mage knight to make use of the FE Heroes gear. Gave her a hurricane axe for smash/anti air. And fire 3. End of the day. Anna's Luck growth is crazy high enough that if you spam enough level ups. (in this case 60). Odds are good she'll get high luck no matter what. Beef up with inherited skills that raise luck and voila.

[@BetaNights]

This is what I'm possibly considering. Was originally gonna take her to Axe Mage Knight, since that just sounded fun, but then I liked the idea of a Warrior with Radiant Bow and Hurricane Axe. We'll see as I go along, might still move her over into Mage Knight. Though I'm worried about how she'll perform with Hurricane Axe, if she doesn't get enough Build to avoid getting doubled with it...

[@Unyubaby]

If you do have the DLC, Tiki is also capable of turning Lady Anna into a nearly unkillable monster if you go the dodgetank route so you can solo skirmishes with just Lady Anna. Marth's Avoid+20 (or +25 if you really want to make sure she dodges) plus a Luck+10 skill from either Tiki, Byleth, or Eirika, with an Elthunder with Celica brand equipped can make it so Lady Anna has a ton of Avoid so you can drop her on a fort or tree in a skirmish and then just repeatedly end turn. Elthunder ensures that other Thunder or Longbow Corrupted can't just camp her and thanks to Tiki, Lady Anna regens 20-40 HP by using the Wait command depending on Bond level. This is definitely harder to accomplish smoothly on Hard/Maddening where stuff can hit harder, so she may need some assistance there rather than soloing.

[@ChPiAn]

In maddening , you can change her to griffin knight after max her mag stat as magic knight , equiped her with levin sword , avoid + 30 , pair up, byleth ring for max luck or tiki for more tank then watch her solo skirmishes for gold at highest difficult level even in end game.

[@Erst999]

High priest Anna has the biggest luck growth and cap so it’s her overall best class.

[@Choops6969]

Even though I don't have any super spoilery characters there, I did it just in case so people who are more blind on the game have a purer experience! I try to be as spoiler free as possible in my content near the release of the game and I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@danielsimmich1858]

Ngl I completely forgot about Anna’s personal for most of the game, and I wish I invested in her luck a bit more. Anna is my team’s strongest unit, I kept her as an Axe unit and I gave her Edlegard, so having higher luck for extra money would have been nice. I think this is my favourite incarnation of Anna she is so entertaining

[@OvrlordEtna]

I gave her a levin sword +5 and engraved, shes a lvl 6 swordmaster, swordmaster has 2nd highest luck cap and the sword takes advantage of her mage and ranged counterattack. Growth rates really dont matter because you can keep resetting their level.

[@Werkzeug-100]

This assumes you can grind at which point money doesn't matter

[@LinkKing7]

They matter for efficiency at the start and how much you want to grind, but yeah, that's about it really

[@dra6o0n]

Intelligence System and Nintendo clearly intended to monetize Fire Emblem so much, if you look at the Amiibo content there's music and outfit unlocks and stuff locked behind the ticket paywall. The Engage weapon is locked before the whole Tempest Trial and Relay Trial gate keeping. The design of gold being so scarce, and donation being a double edged sword to make you lose all that gold so you might get frustrated and go down the route of buying the DLC for more firepower and getting Tiki for Anna in order to do a 'gold farm' meta... Enemies scales to your highest level characters, even the new ones that joined. Vander for instance starts at your base level and levels slowly throughout the entire time, but raising his level also raises your game's scaling in correlation.

[@heyjeySigma]

whether they INTENDED to monetize this game or not ... theyre failing/ failed at it. most ppl already finished the game or will finish it soon and even if they add some "gold bonus" dlc or whatever , most ppl wont even bother with it. This is is a single player game and if they wanted to capitalize on their lil greed they should have released all that on day 1. (dont get me wrong tho i do NOT condone all this nonsense.. just an observation)

[@Oscar_Kashima]

And if you are playing very casually with no rush, now that the well is a thing, you can spend a good 6600 sp to get both the Byleth and Tiki luck skills on her, which is exactly what I'm going to do.

[@frankgerardoromeromora4286]

if the dlc was sell in parts, the tiki part would be the most selled change my mind

[@samuelgeyman]

Okay here me out for some infinite money What you need Anna as high priest (preferably high def and res) Micaiah Ring with nosferatu (only if Def and res low) Celicas paralogue available Start paralogue, only bring main character and Anna Put Anna in the Trees with a 2 or 3 range tome WAIT Seriously just wait, they will constantly spawn new enemies If you advance too far Celica will warp and Anna will kill her I did this for 3 hours on waiting and left with enough money to make full donations and buy every item, weapon, staff and seal I could ever need

Nice In depth guide and hoping you keep coming up with more strats. Just started my first run and thankfully can avoid alot of mistakes thanks to u. Thankfully I'm familure with all fire emblem games so haven't made much so far but money was something I noticed as being on the low side.

[@OvrlordEtna]

[@blubudubbel]

Before going into the nitty-gritty of numbers, I decided to have her final class be Thief and then use Leif with her. His Light Brand (Engage Weapon Lvl 15) grants Lck+10 and has 1-2 range, and for Covert units his Quadruple Hit Engage Attack adds another 1k Gold drop based on luck. But in the end that is like one more trigger a battle, so it's barely worth it and she misses out on many KOs and therefore trigger chances with the daggers.

[@dessam3939]

It was so funny getting the military funds and blowing it right away not knowing the game is kinda stingy with extra funds, this will definitely be useful

[@LinkKing7]

[@tonymcneill7779]

My warrior Anna was actually a beast late game with a killer axe and that magical bow that benefits with people with high magic. There were times where it felt like every kill got her skill to activate netting me gold. I will definitely try this out though in future replays of the game however. I've seen so many videos saying the same things you are about making her some kind of magic user asap.

[@theprofesionalist7927]

@@Exalosia But Y though? Especially when Anna is a merc or a thief/trickster (thief with a staff) in most games. You'd think they'd at least hand out second seals earlier in the game and have a tutorial on stat growths. I really wish Nintendo would just flat out have a section in the game where a character just says "honestly I always wanted to be a mage instead of a fighter or vice versa" instead of just lightly implying that certain characters would be better if they got reclassed based on their growths.

[@charmishing]

Didn’t know about her magic growth and just made her into a griffin knight because of the high luck stat and then gave her a hurricane axe later

[@thomasquesada7248]

Note that the hurricane axe is a smash weapon Ive made her a sword griffin and she bonks with a forge levin sword

[@takarahayashi4124]

yeah 50% mag spd and dex growth is absolutely absurd, her growths eclipse every single mage in the game.

[@takarahayashi4124]

oh hey bro, I'm glad you took my advice and actually made a guide on the money goblin, lol.

[@LinkKing7]

It was a great suggestion once I looked more into it haha!

[@BowandSvent]

I REALLY tried to make Anna work, but I went in completely blind and had no idea she functioned better as a mage. I was using her clear up until she was promoted with garbage stats and SPD still under 10. I never got the skill to activate even once.

[@chaincat33]

I would argue Griffin Knight is a better class for Anna. Specifically sword or Lance depending on which you need more, but sword is better on a unit-per-unit basis. Griffin Knight has the second best luck in the game, is mounted, is flying, and since you're spending 10 levels in axe fighter, makes use of those str levels she got. You still keep staff access anyways, so give her a levin sword/flame lance and a griffin and she'll do just as well

[@LinkKing7]

Her luck won't grow as fast, but sure, it's also a good class and if you don't mind the lower proc chance or progression of the build you can most certainly do that. She also won't be as strong as a killing machine because even sword and lance are sub par for her with her wet noodle strength.

[@TheOftenElusive]

Before finishing the watch, here is your comment. Happy to get a video* like this since I made the exact mistake of investing in regions early too, boo

[@YumeBoi]

I just went with a warrior class for her because I'm playing the game full blind, and she is horrible as a melee unit but she became one of my best archer, so kudos

[@loucar10]

I foreget about the existence of most s rank weapons as they're mostly locked behind donations

[@derColt]

damn, i love me some detailed guide :D thank you!

[@Sachman7]

I went into mage knight with her and gave her ivy’s ring for alcatricity and speed. I then paired her with a high avoid wolf knight (Merrin) with the lucina ring so dual guard had 100% proc rate, and the high avoid meant that enemies didn’t target Merrin. You can then just leave anna with bolganone in the middle of the field and let her kill everything and also be immune to damage, you get slightly lower luck from not equipping byleth or eirika but when there are so many enemies in the late game you can just leave her to destroy one half of the map and make a great amount of cash while the rest of your squad deals with the other half normally.

[@DarknessDpa]

Just recently got my Anna built up without DLC but due to me not teaching her Tomes, I actually started mine as a Thief for that extra Avo as a Covert unit and eventually promoted her to the next best thing the Wolf Rider who gets 55 Max Luck. Did the same with the Byleth strat for Luck (which you just need + 8 really as you tested) but I also gave my Anna Corrin's Pair Up skill as well so that Backup units can't hurt her at all, therefore once she gets way up there, nothing can now stop her. When grinding her up originally, I just chose maps with terrain on it and tried to take out any problematic units when I could and also fed her Luck Incenses for a little extra boost. Now my Anna is technically LV 60 and no one can hit her even in the open and the dagger I have on her can kill everyone in due time.

[@FabschOblivion669]

Alrighty then! This is definitely something I’ll do on my next playthrough since I’m still on my first and I’m past chapter 11. So time to go full budget mode on this until I’m able to grind for cash (no DLC so far). My Anna is still an Axe Fighter and I had plans to turn her either into a Wolf Knight or a Bow Knight.

Not sure what is going on. Please help?

I’d reclass her into a healer, give her the tiki bracelet. and that will give her good stats per lv up. Afterwards promote her into a magic user since her magic is better than her physical attack.

[@RaidenKaiser]

If you're on normal or hard Anna has a luck cap of 35 on wolf and swordmaster is 38 so may be worth making her that over over high priest just letting you all know. BTW not including emblem sync stats and emblem skills inherited so you could prob get way more combining those too.

[@Shootingfoul]

I wish I watched this guide before building Anna, at least my Anna build wasn't too far off. Just your guide is more optimized. BTW, I have no problem making Anna my best unit. Money too good.

[@MoonyPoet]

I have been running Anna only when I need money. Her inherit skills are Luck +12 and Luck/HP +10. Since having a Byleth/Tiki emblem equipped doesn't appear to do anything further for her luck, I gave her the Chrom S-ranked ring. This is getting me up to 64% chance to proc.

[@ericdelapena6247]

Do I need to spend 2500 SP to keep luck +12 from inheriting? You mentioned at 9:36 that you get luck +12 just equipping the ring. I don’t see that bonus anywhere.

[@toastofc6570]

question, what exactly would rolling for bond rings accomplish 4:14

[@ArthKryst]

I got anna to Lvl 10, first master sealed her to warrior, gave tome prof. And second sealed her to Sage. Gave her tiki, Bolganone+3 and a weight reduction engraving. She one rounded most enemies, doubling them and literally made me shit ton of money while doing so, plus her crits dialogue are absolutely hilarious.(biggest reason why Anna is a good unit) "NO WINDOW SHOPPING"

[@themaskedswordmaster2714]

I found griffon knight for endgame is better because while you lose 3 max luck you become mush faster at 50 max speed as opposed to 33 but also much stronger by being able to switch between physical and magic damage if you choose the lance option which is by far the best of the 3

[@MarLuc2304]

hey i do have a question abt anna well something regarding to her the emblem ring chrom on S rank has the skill that improves skills which are percantage based by another 5% or rather adds those 5% on the chance to it does that count for annas talent too?

Yes, it works!

[@GMKGoji01]

I don’t have the DLC, but now I want it.☹️ UPDATE! My Anna's a High Priest and I learned that stacking her luck is not a good idea. I gave her HP/Lck +10 and Lck +12!

I gave her starsphere which guarentees 100% magic growth each level...just micayah her to level 10, second seal to mage and master to sage. Shes just ridiculously strong that i can easily farm gold by only having her delete the entire map averaging anywhere from 3 to 8k each time in just a few turns.

[@malcovich_games]

I did level up as an axe fighter first, promo then went to high priest. Using Micaiah emblem which not only gives some luck, she also has Nosferatu allowing Anna to drain tank, so I can have her solo skirmishes on Hard difficulty for the money. Blew some SP on stacking too much luck before I ran into the bonus stat cap so I got a but disappointed but fortunately she does get 200ish sp per solo skirmish, thinking of getting Roy’ Hold Out instead to protect her agains bad luck especially from enemy Brave weapons.

[@duetopersonalreasonsaaaaaa]

I did a very similar strat, except her final Emblem pairing was with Leif as a Thief so she could get the covert Lck% chance of gaining 1000G everytime she uses Quadruple Hit. If I did it over again, I might make her a Sniper with Radiant Bow + everything else I did before. Her Str was so high due to Tiki's Starsphere that I didn't even need to put her in a magic class tho, she was by far my best unit, even with all the favoritism I showed Zelkov haha. Keep in mind this was on Normal since I'm smooth brain.

[@Ephidiel]

Anna as a Solo Thief with Corrin Emblem is the safest Method. She will never get hit unless there are Mystics in the area and even then it will be rarely and with the Luck+ Skills she will also hit at least 51 Luck

[@ryanrj7500]

Would there still be a cap on +20 luck if used the +hp/luck inhereted instead of just +luck? I thought it didnt let you use skill with the same exact name so inhereted hp/luck and just paired her with byleth

It’s frustrating that Nintendo locked the Tiki bracelet behind a $30 paywall. It’s no different than what Ubisoft did w/ Assassin’s Creed. I’m not the biggest fan of DLC in general, but I refuse to pay extra just to combat a feature that game devs baked into the gameplay for the purpose of selling the DLC.

[@VirgoVyrus]

I'm more mad about them doing that with the Silver Card. I hate that you have to pay real money to get in game discounts. The Silver Card used to be a mid/late game item and it felt awesome knowing that you earned it.

[@LinkKing7]

It's going to be annoying for sure, but you also need to give people who bought the DLC a reason to feel validated in their purchase somehow. I'm hoping the extra story they add as well as teh other bracelets will make the DLC worth getting for everyone, but for now I'd wait if you're on the fence. I got it because I know I'll be making videos and covering it eventually but yeah, that's not the case for everyone for sure.

[@thatoneguy1821]

@@LinkKing7 Yea, but that’s one of the main problems I have with DLC. It’s become this marketing tactic to keep certain things behind a paywall just to make that extra money. I’m fine with DLC when it comes from an honest place. A lot of indie devs release their games, not knowing if they’ll make any money off it. And when it hits it big, they put that money back into creating more content bc it’s their passion project. Even the BOTW devs seemed like they were responding to the overwhelming reception they received and decided to continue implementing ideas they had after release. But a lot of Nintendo games are pure marketing. They’ll release a half finished product and have the rest be paid DLC. Engage doesn’t feel half finished. But it’s definitely a marketing ploy to keep the Tiki bracelet locked behind a paywall. Especially considering the content was ready Day 1. It’s also annoying that you have to buy in to the full thing blind. Tell me what I’m getting in advance if you’re gonna make me pay $30 for four installments over the course of two years. The whole thing is just gross the way it’s being done

[@caosisaac]

For highest chance once you farm enough sp for it would chrom s rank be the best ring for lady anna for money purposes? If you can afford tiki's hp + luck skill to +8 and byleths luck +12 thatll give you the 20 cap and chrom's s rank skill adds a flat 5% chance to all skills so at max that would give lady anna 64% procc chance over 59%

[@LinkKing7]

Yes, you can use the chrom ring

[@luisavalos8700]

I didn’t have the tiki emblem, but I got her to high priest and inherited +10 luck. Gave her Olwen S ring and thunder+5 to double, She kills more consistently. Worked like a charm.

[@Felixr2]

If you somehow manage to get 4900 SP on Anna and feel like resetting to get an S rank Chrom bond ring, you can actually get the trigger rate up to 64%. Get Byleth's Luck +12 and Tiki's HP/Luck +8 inherited onto Anna to get the +20 from skills without requiring a ring. Ths leaves room for equipping the S rank Chrom bond ring which increases the trigger rate of all skills by 5%. It takes quite a bit more effort, and probably isn't worth investing in aside from meme purposes, but it's still an option.

Also one of the immortal characters of the series, she might as well be a divine dragon herself

[@juicyjuustar121]

I think it would be best to promote Anna from axe fighter first, and *then* second seal her into whatever class you want. Advanced classes have the better growths overall, and you don't have to bother getting her to level 10 again to reclass like you would if you put her into a base class like mage or martial monk. Those are just my two cents though, personally I made Anna an armor knight and I don't regret it one bit lmao

[@NintennoCollector]

For changing classes, should we do it at 10 or wait till 20 each time? i read it works different fot stats vs exp as exp works through an internal count. but idk about the stats.

[@LinkKing7]

Do it at 10

[@aleisterleopold6229]

Does the stat increasing skills not stack with the ring their from?

[@VirgoVyrus]

You can only have +20 increase on top of your base Stat cap. So even if you have Luck +12 and Byleths emblem and a luck tonic. You will not go past the 20 restriction.

[@LinkKing7]

They do, just only up to +20 maximum

[@ariinuikamui4202]

I play without the dlc and i don't have byleth yet but after invest, money/xp/ressources and 3 second seal, my Anna (Mage) has technically 60 lvl on her stats, i choose Avoid +20 (Marth) and Tome precision 3 (Celica) for her inheritable skills before chapter 10. Well now she is a little pretty monster who avoid all attacks and destroy everything with Bolganone +5 Micaiah engrave.

[@FantaLain]

Just to clarify what you said at 6:44 - is it possible to go from Mage to High Priest? I thought it needed Lvl 10 Martial Monk? I have Tiki and set Anna up as a Mage to make kills easier based on the video but it seems like I may have to second seal her again🥲 Am I missing something?

[@LinkKing7]

Correct, you need Martial Monk level 10, but if you go to Sage, you can second seal over to High Priest as long as you have the necessary proficiencies!

[@FantaLain]

Ahhh I see! Thankyou for explaining :)

[@ProductionNobody]

Wait, so if I inherit tiki luck +10 and stay with tiki ring, the luck boost cant go higher as 20??? Meaning i dint need to put byleth luck +12 because i cant go beyond +20?

[@takarahayashi4124]

correct +20 is the highest bonus you can get on any stat. So any extra is wasted stats.

[@LinkKing7]

[@projectboy5409]

I bought the tiki 10+ to health and luck as opposed to byleth. I figured it may help to give her more hp

[@soarinduscai]

How do you find growth rates? Is it something I can observe in game? I want to really do complex things with my engage playthrough(s)

[@LinkKing7]

I get mine from Serenesforest, which is a website with a lot of FE information in general!

[@PurpleShift42]

But to answer the are they available in-game question, growth rates have pretty much always been a hidden stat across the FE series, so Serenes Forest (or another site/person that did some snooping and datamining) is the best place to go, as OP said

[@evansmith2832]

In terms of practicality and getting her online asap without dlc, you should aim to get her to level 10 in axe fighter by the end of chapter 8 and immediately reclassing into sword griffon knight, getting her to sword power 3 before chapter 10. It's such a better combat class and can fly, and you're only missing out on 15% luck growth. Also, don't bother with luck+, you'll need speed+ 90% of the time instead, and it's just not worth the sp.

[@nb_nic]

by the way, the reason the byleth ability didn't double is because you can't overlap. the game will tell you that inherited skills won't work if you're wearing the ring you inherited them from, so the +12 from byleth would be better if you paired it with Lyn or Tiki

[@LinkKing7]

Yes it does stack, and no it doesn't work if you pair it with Tiki. The cap is 20, I tested this personally before putting the video out.

[@BIGstonks]

Some skills dont stack, and some do. The skills that give you stats or avoid or things of that nature do stack, but skills that give you actual abilities usually dont. The game will tell you which skills stack in the inherit skills menu.

[@tiensimon1263]

Do you need to equip Tiki or just her skill?

[@Zerberos22]

I personally just pushed her to lvl 10 and skiped out on the mage and went straight to sage ( my original plan was high priest because of higher luck growth but I dont have any dlc and didnt want to wait for Byleth so I had sage as my only good option)

[@loffel1700]

I felt like you compared unfairly, as you only considered the martial monk to have tiki, and not mage as well. the mage class against the martial monk class. Having Starsphere helps all classes, so why wouldn't we do mage or sage with tiki? Her luck, magic, and build still scale well, but she can either use tomes during base class or use advanced tomes (bolg., excal., thoron) on sage. Isn't this better killing potential?

[@blankblank6214]

Its weird how she has a magic growth

[@nickcarter6294]

Hello my anna sage stat is 49 mag, dex 35, spd, def 18, res 43, luk 31 so it's max already or I miss something?

[@nickcarter6294]

I can see high prist is 39 luk max but its possible to kill on maddening mode so sage is better and kill fast so 8 lck is miss so nothing big different

[@LinkKing7]

The stat caps are different based on the class, you should do whatever you like the most

[@speedBun07]

New FE dumb question: if you change class you reset your stats and growth? Or did i already screw my units?

[@LinkKing7]

There are two types. If you second seal into a different class in hte same tier (base or advanced), then your base stats will change to reflect that. Your BASE growths will stay the same, as each unit has their own personal base growths, but your CLASS growths will change to match the class you're in. Your final growths are base+class and then your total goes from there. I hope that was a clear enough explanation, let me know if you have any other questions!

[@speedBun07]

@@LinkKing7 so, dice were already rolled for that class? Does that mean that what it didn't grow on that stat because of my previous level will stay the same? I think my question is, if i reclass while already at 20, will the lvl go down again and start the grow again?

[@uncledrake6606]

Afaik star sphere does not add any flat % chance of levelling up a stat. It just re-rolls every stat that didn't grow once, just like jean's character passive

[@LinkKing7]

And where are you getting that information from?

[@uncledrake6606]

@@LinkKing7 By taking a closer look at the BLD stat. If you put Tiki on Boucheron and reclass him to a swordfighter. He should have a 35% chance to increase BLD, provided Star Sphere gives a flat 15% boost, so roughly 3 lvls should raise BLD by 1, statistically speaking. But that just doesn't happen, it's much rarer than that. This gets even more pronounced if you put tiki on Jean and make him a berserker. He would have a 30% chance twice per level, which would cause his BLD to rise even faster, but that too doesn't happen. Thus it is more likely to just be an inheritable jean passive, rather than a flat boost.

[@LordVanOskuro]

Surprised none of the Emblems recognize her similarities to her "ancestors"

[@LinkKing7]

You know, I never thought about that, good point!

[@TheCoolerDrilis]

Stat bonuses from Emblems and skills cap at +20, but is that affected by weapon bonuses, too? For example, could you get +10 Luck from Byleth and +10 HP/Luck from Tiki, then further boost your Luck by another 10 from Leif's Light Brand? EDIT: It in fact does not. I just tested it out, it seems _all_ bonuses regardless of source cap at +20, barring perhaps HP, which I haven't tested.

[@ryanrj7500]

Thanks for testing this. I was going to ask if you could go over 20 with +12from byleth and +10 luck/hp from tiki. Guessing not?

[@TheCoolerDrilis]

@ryanrj7500 No. If you're willing to shell out the SP Books, the best Skills for that would be +10 Luck from Byleth and +10 HP/Luck from Tiki.

[@ryanrj7500]

@@TheCoolerDrilis got it, yeah SP is a non issue for me with constant welling with 4 star. I have like 20k unused in books now lol. Usually 2 silver weapons and 1 or 2 other cheap things will get an adept book and novice book almost everytime and the advanced every 3 times or so

[@TheCoolerDrilis]

@@ryanrj7500 No wait, hold on. Tiki's Emblem Bracelet already gives her +10 to Luck. Best to give Anna +10 HP/Luck and a high Avoidance Skill from Marth.

[@ryanrj7500]

@@TheCoolerDrilis fortunately for me my Anna was blessed with more speed than she will ever need and is never touched anyway. I can't really imagine the change in difficulty if I didn't get starsphere early on to her haha. It's an entirely different game for dlc and non dlc players for sure

[@VerkatosEnsei]

I really, REALLY wish I saw this video before I finished Celica's Paralogue, because the enemies can summon more enemies, and if I had a strong enough Anna that sounds like I could just spend the whole time just wailing away and grinding for money with it Instead I just have to settle for roughly 8k to 9k per skirmish, and Anna's rather squishy as a High Priest so on maps without defense tiles I usually have to just get even luckier

[@DoctorCurse]

Does her ability work on enemies with void curse, if it does then you could use her on Ike's paralogue which has infinite reinforcements.

[@TheOnionKun]

That's Lady Anna to you! XD. I'm restarting my maddening run and see if I can make Anna the casino machine 🎰 . Not sure if I should to lower down to causal instead of perma death. >_>

[@takarahayashi4124]

it's honestly not that hard, Anna snowballs really fast. She has the best growths in the game, so the moment she starts gaining levels as a magic class, she'll decimates.

[@LinkKing7]

Go for it, she's great!

[@TheCoolerDrilis]

Honestly, if you're the type to do skirmishes, Paralogues, and DLC, I don't see why you _wouldn't_ do Casual.

[@PrinceDingus]

Since the bonus Luck seems to be capped at +20, can you get to that without an Emblem, and instead attach the Chrom S-Rank bond ring for the extra 5% additional skill proc chance? It would probably require you investing a lot of SP in Byleth’s +12 Luck and maybe Tiki’s +HP/Luck skills as well.. but hey, 5%.

[@VirgoVyrus]

I prefer to have Anna with Corrin's Pair Up (blocks chain attacks) and Byleth's emblem and his Luck +12. This reaches her cap of 59 and she can solo any map. Especially if she's placed on a healing or avoid tile.

[@VirgoVyrus]

I will turn off animations and let any solo skirmishes. She usually nets 8k just from her skill alone.

[@LinkKing7]

Gonna be a lot of SP grinding to get all that but yeah, in theory that works too!

[@ausnik]

So what about a Sage Tiki Anna? Mainly because of the A and S tier tomes a sage gets.

[@LinkKing7]

That works too! Like I said in the video, she'll get the luck growths slower, but she'll still do really well in any mage class

[@michaeltsang1748]

Well. I went into the game blind on ch 10. It was excellent in terms of story and gameplay, in my opinion. Unfortunately, Anna is stuck as an Axe unit. I'll make it work.

[@akittylover2784]

My question is if it may be better to put anna in a more survivable class that can be on the front lines, thus getting more kills. Perhaps swordmaster, with levin sword? I'm wondering what the give and take would be, if that makes any sense. In my situation Id be using skirmishes, and grinding would be of no consequence- I'd want to be able to have a class as potent or at least *nearly* as potent as Aleir is, being able to kill hordes of enemies and stay alive. Of course, that may not be possible... *without the recent DLC, of course! Cha Ching! $* Would a soren build similar to the jean one be viable for anna too? If so, she'd be able to clear an entire skirmish by herself or at least almost by herself.

[@LinkKing7]

Anna is a better mage than Jean, she's the best mage in the entire game if you reclass her, so yeah, the Soren build works if you're running DLC

[@akittylover2784]

@@LinkKing7 awesome, ok. I'll keep that in mind for my next run for sure then. Thanks for telling me! :)

I'm on Chapter 9 and I just got the DLC recently. Though I did promote Framme, Clanne and Louis. Will that affect anything?

[@VirgoVyrus]

Just try to follow this guide as much as possible before you finish chapter 10. Get the Tiki emblem and start working on reclassing Anna into a High Priest. You will need one Master Seal and one Second Seal.

[@petertilton7004]

@@VirgoVyrus Will you get a Master Seal in Chapter 9 cause I used three already.

You should be able to follow this exactly as shown, and you will get more master seals via the shop and along the way. Just do the steps listed ASAP for Micaiah to prepare for mage class requirements and you can go grab Tiki as well!

Anna did nothing wrong.

[@javiergomez9320]

So do you recommend to second seal her to mage then Sage if you don’t have the dlc? Even though she is lvl 6.

[@LinkKing7]

You can take her to level 10, class change to warrior and then second seal to Sage if you want. The difference is negligible I think. I failed to do that level of research in this video, but it seems fairly viable and I think it's ok to do that instead
