>90% of the early units are garbage that get replaced by the midgame prepromotes instead of the latter being replacements

Cèline never falls off
Technically you're correct as she can't fall from a height she didn't reach :^)
this kek.
even her niche of using a early levin sword is kind of retarded with how heavy that weapon is.
that's why he said 90% anon.
to me anna and chloe are the only units worth investing. Chloe just needs a steel lance +3 and she is set for a long time. later on you can patch her str + with the relatively cheap +2 skill and an energy drop.
Anna also just needs to get to level 10 which is easy thanks to her starting at 5 and great sacrifice plays. Jean is also a trainee unit that could be good but he starts at level 1 on qi adept... only use if you like shota?
only units from brodia and above are even worth using tbh.
My man Louis is a carry, while Jade is underwhelming, just like Diamant.
i thought so too initially. but he falls off and he has so much defense he ends up getting ignored by the enemies so he cant even act as a wall for you.
I feel Chloe is better as a magic user
She can promote into Griffin to use Levin Swords and replace Framme as your early game healer, then go into Sage or Magic Knight
that seems sexy tbh.
but at the moment i use her on the physical side as a oneshot missle i can launch out and she is fine because of her great avoid.
but it's nice that she has options for the later game also.
The brodian units are pretty meh also. Alcryst is the only stand out and it's only because all the other archers suck
At least the Well update gave you some reason to use the scrub squad before Chapter 10. They are still shit, but at least they can have Canter now.
Is she really better with the Levin Sword than Chloe?
Why would you give her a Levin sword when she can straight up use magic? And Chloe can use flame lances if she stays in a lance class.
Flame Lance is too heavy. Levin Sword does more damage + can break
Because the Levin Sword is good while Flame lances are bad.
I don't know why they made Flame Lance that bad, or why Radiant Bow is retardedly better than all the rest.
Bows are the best weapon type in the game. Radiant is literally the best weapon in the game. Poorfags who can’t pay for dlc can do this build a little worse on Fogado on his lord class and with a single Dust. Its honestly more worthwhile having the Radiant be your “mage” since this is the fastest magic can get and birds become a joke.
Levin Sword on Chloe is a good flying “mage” and again probably faster than anything you can get in MK while still having 50 Mag growth and good weapon Mt, easy to upgrade and can break axes for what its worth to your Warriors or whatever. Though mine just absolutely toasted most targets due to the speed, Levin Mt, and Ephraims +5 damage.
>Bows are the best weapon type in the game
That or Knives
Radiant + Bow Knight is a pretty underrated combo. A reclassed Citrinne can reach 26 Mag which is complete nonsense and she ends up decimating armors and fliers with no problem. You'll need to patch up her speed but in a game like Engage that's trivial.
Radiant Bow is good, but it's goofy to use it in place of a mage.
Like, you're using Anna with 24 capped magic. The Radiant Bow is only 3mt more than Bolganone, and the base stat difference between even a Mage Knight and Bow Knight is the Mage Knight gets +5 Magic. So it's already stronger with Bolganone than the Bow Knight is with Radiant Bow, even before you get to the pitiful magic cap on bow knight (or warrior or sniper).
Youre not using a Bolganone upgraded especially as early as you can forge and refine radiant. Radiant does 75 damage to fliers. Bolganone doesnt. MKs are not as fast and accurate even with class skill. Elwind and Excaliber are no where close to the damage of the bow since its 3x weapon might not overall attack. Thoron cannot double while Windgod allows 3 range on Radiant. Lastly youre just not gonna have 3 tomes upgraded and engraved on ine mage while the Radiant is cheap to max and does all 3 tomes jobs. Albeit not many units can run a radiant bow like a mage. So mages are still worthwhile.
So that my warrior Jade can melt low Res units
The correct answer is that you're able to use levin sword for engage attacks that require swords while hitting enemies on their usually weaker Res stat while you can't for magic. A popular combination is Sigurd Celine, as each individual enemy has a chance to proc Ignis as well. It's not bad if you're using Celine, since she appreciates the BLD, MS and dex.
Also there is the advantage of silence not working on Levin Sword
I haven’t played the update, what’s the well do?
My Celine has 17 str and 18 magic. And 6 build with 20 speed. She mainly heals these days.
I gave the Levin sword to merrin
>I WILL show favoritism to Celine
>I WILL funnel all of the early game exp to Celne
>I WILL use all stat boosters to Celine
Celine is kinda of wild card, mine was one of my best units specially once I got Byleth and she gain acess to the Thyrsus. SHe can be a very powerful mixed unit that is slighthly more focus in magic and she has access to ignis, but her growths aren't be best so she is dependant on permanent buff items, she isn`t a garbo units but she will indeed need some patches to reamain relvant to the army.
I woul say Celine is a B+ or B tier unit, as a character she is one of my favorites.
Oh and I was forgeting, having Byleth dance skill and another dance in your party can allow for some disgusting plays, you can do think like refresh a unit with the main dancer, then refresh the main dancer (plus 3 more units) with Byleth's holder, and then refresh the Byleth holder with the main dancer, but I guess that isn`t something exclusive to Celine.
Celine gets shit on by Soren!Pandreo and Citrinne with Olwen S ring and forged Thunder
I don’t know, Anna stayed pretty useful for me and you can get her as early as Chapter 6(7?)
Plus pretty cumable tum right there
t. Playing on baby (hard) mode.
what about my post makes you think im playing on hard?
I've only ever played on maddening and dont use the dlc emblems.
even with exp nerfs on maddening its easy af to get atleast 2 full party great sacrifices per map. getting anna to level 10 is easy and doable WITHOUT hampering or altering the gameplay flow. unlike what you would need to get jean to a viable state.
>Anna stayed pretty useful
Anna starts out about as bad as you could imagine and takes quite a while to even be on par with other units, let alone exceed them.
100% of the Engage OPs bitching about dumb crap are Three House fags falseflagging
Sounds like an actual FE game again
why is the leaf emblem such a fucking shitter...
kek
isn't that the one emblem you dont want to unlock the latter bond levels..
He's great on Timerra in case you are retarded enough to actually use her
Why would he fix her?
The build is as good as speed, and quad hit gives multiple chances for sandstorm to trigger
Leif is at least better than Celica and the mediocre Chrom Rings.
Yeah I have yet to make the chrom ring not suck.
so nintendo is using AI art now
Framme was one of my MVP, but most people say she's not very good so IDK. I just made her martial master and gave her a maxed out Steel Fist.
i now know why i don't like goldmary as much as i like hilda.
she's essential hilda+whorothea^2
Maddening experience is halved compared to normal and 2/3 of what hard gives you.
Early units are still very usable, you just need to pick a few of them to give favoritism and leave the others behind, there isn't enough experience for all of them. Boucheron and Clanne became my MVPs and I didn't even realize they were supposed to be bad until reading posts like these.
i tried using boucheron. he even "seemed" to be doing work for me. i gave him sigurd he would kill stuff and even got around level 13 by the time of the escape missions. I thought he was doing good!
then 2 chapters later Panette joins and takes a fat shit all over boucheron. i gave bouche +2 str passive and some other crap thinking he'd be goated since i invested so much. he wasnt... i regret even giving him any of the exp but there is no one in the early game worth keeping besides alear(you have to) and chloe.
pretty much just the brodia and above units are worth using.
None of them actually are, you just can't use your whole spread of characters and any character you funnel exp into are your mains for that playthrough.
Who was in the right here?

I beat the game using the Firene cast except for Louis and Chloé. You don't have to replace anyone, so stop making excuses.
yeah on normal
yes you can beat the game with any unit.
that does not mean every unit is good or worth using.
you are as autistic as that michael wasko guy
Couldn't you argue efficiency oriented types like mekkah are the actual autists?
If I like the character they are worth using
the only post that matters, meta fagging fire emblem is a fools game
>[NSW] Fire Emblem Engage – 2,324 / 203,326
Engayge sisters........ what happened......
why would we care about sales? you a stock owner?
Engagefags love sales talk though. Before the game came out they were bragging about how Engage would outsell 3H based on preorders. You only hate sales talk now because Engage is trailing 3H. But if it was beating 3H you'd all be putting the sales comparisons in every Engage OP. Lmao
>3Hrchud
>retarded schizophrenic
Checks out.
heh
Case in point.
Salesfags have no side.
The people who were clamouring for Engage to sell more are the same gays who are now laughing at it underperforming.
>The people who were clamouring for Engage to sell more are the same gays who are now laughing at it underperforming.
Proof?
Now this is some schizo cope. The same 24 people spamming the COMG preorder charts are the same 24 autists making Engage generals everyday and necrobumping the threads to 500 replies everyday. The same people saying that censorship is okay now. The same people that say everyone being gay doesn’t matter anymore. The same people that are okay with day one DLC season pass for a game delayed two years. The same people that say the story is good. You people would have literally bought this game and praised it as the greatest thing ever even if it was a dried up dog turd sealed in a clamshell.

I just finished Fire Emblem Engage. If this game was supposed to be the anniversary title game. It sucked. Seriously.
The story was boring at best. Even calling it serviceable will be counted as a positive for it. I looked around and it was said that they wanted to cater to kids for this title? If that's the case then they might have succeeded, but I don't know any actual kids wanting to play this type of game.
Alear as a character is so bad. I cannot take him seriously because it's like he already has a full on character development at the start of the game when he's supposed to be a big blank slate. The presentation of the story sucked.
The maps are okay, but kinda boring. The gameplay was fine but nothing that special. The Engayge gimmick was fun but meh at the same time.
I dunno. 6/10? I did still play it until the end. I really hope they don't try to cater to kids again.
>. I looked around and it was said that they wanted to cater to kids for this title
yep
How many people are even capable of liking more than one game in this franchise anymore? Engage and 3H are both fun for different reasons imho and I’m happy both have been successful
>I'm such an epic centrist fencesitter xDD
Pretending to like or dislike things to “fit in” is something only sub-IQ gays like yourself bother with since it’s easier than having opinions on anything
>taking video games this seriously
this guy actually fell for the propaganda lol
I only like the good ones.
3H doesn't feel like a FE game outside of the few similarities with Genealogy. It's a Persona reject and it's a bad omen that people liked it because of this.
I really soured on 3H after the first playthrough. For a game that's entire premise is about multiple routes they sure made it a slog to get through all of them.
i heard skipping thru the month can be viable as a challenge mode?
if so a ton of the paddening can be skipped (the character interactions and growing your units is half the fun of three houses imo)
If you want to play through the mechanical dumpster fire and trashy level design that is 3HrT, just use the No Monastery Mod.
Don’t care plus didn’t ask
Yes you did.
>I’m happy both have been successful
engage flopped
I ask this same question with the Xenoblade fanbase, it seems ever since 2 was announced, people are completely incapable of liking multiple games.
Funnily enough, Engage threads are pretty much in the same state that XC3 threads were after it had been out for about 2 months. Just the same people reposting the same things in a daily /vg/-tier general so they can pretend the game isnt a flop.
3H threads were literally waifu ritual posting and the same edelgard vs. dimitri schizo argument for 3 years
Not only 3H is not a true FE game, but liking it also means you aren't a true FE fan. Maybe you liked a couple of them by chance, but a true FE fan will necessarily hate 3H.
>Engage and 3H are both fun for different reasons imho and I’m happy both have been successful
3H took the persona pill and most of his fans just watched the cutscenes after playing Crimson Flower and called it a day.
And I don't blame them due to the gameplay being Awakening tier with 99% of the game being cheesed due to your overpowered tools and some chapters just being ball busting for no reason if you don't prepare beforehand so they punish you if you don't use certain characthers in your team (FUCK YOU REUNION AT DAWN).
FE casual here. I'm currently playing 3H for the first time and it definitely is a slog. I assume there's at least four pathways and I'm just barely about to finish the first half of my first run and I'm already fucking done with this game. Also, for a title that supposedly takes itself more seriously, it still retains the same dogshit "every single character in the game keeps secrets from you and dies in a bullshit way right before you find out they were your long lost father or whatever the fuck" trope and the generally horrendous writing so offensively prevalent in the few games I have played (Fates, Echoes, and of course 3H). Don't get me wrong, I've had fun with all the few FE games I've played, but it's impossible for me to take the stories seriously. For me, FE is all about picking out your few favorite units and turning them into broken messes that just ruin the game for you. I don't even care if the game gets too easy, I just like building OP units and trampling over the enemies armies. The cutscenes are just a sour icing on the cake
Also, I wanna lick Corrin's dirty feet
>I assume there's at least four pathways
You assume wrong, pal
>24 unique maps
>same image shows 25 unique maps
Btw, it's 35 unique maps if you count paralogues too.
Engage has 41 maps, but 12 of those are rycicled from old FE games, so i'm not sure if it's fair to count them as "new unique" maps.
Nothing wrong with counting recycled maps since the way you play them are totally different in engage
Though, I still wouldn't count the awakening paralogue map since that shit is unsalvageable lmao
>I still wouldn't count the awakening paralogue map since that shit is unsalvageable lmao
They were being faitful to the true Awakening experience.
3 copes with Ganker discussing, enjoying, and autistically arguing builds in a video game.
Engage fans are mostly Fates fans who are still mindbroken by how people reacted to that game.
Three Houses fans can't handle all the stupid shit that hides the good part of the game.
It's natural that these two fanbases are at war.
I only like good Fire Emblem
hi bros im pretty new to FE franchise and just played awakening and conquest, loved more conquest than awakening, i will like the switch games? what do you guys prefer, engage or three houses?
Engage is close to Conquest. 3HrT is a bad Persona clone with even worse gameplay.
>loved Conquest
Sounds like a gameplayCHAD like you will like Engage over 3H
Both are worth a playthrough, but Engage just released and discussion is still hot
>discussion is still hot
Not really. It’s already devolved into waifu spam with the occasional ring combination autism that’s already been exhausted at this point
I prefer Engage, but admittedly, 3H has a better plot (Blue Lions)
I like both but for different reasons.
never played conquest and never beat awakening..
however i did do 2 full playthrus of three houses (need to do 2 more sometime in the future)
and am playing engage at the moment.
Engage is the first time that the game feels challenging but fair on maddening difficulty.
Three houses was good for one 30hour(blue lion) play though and then that’s it. There’s no point in replaying it because it takes forever for mostly the same content even though I did suffer. I will be able to put hundreds of hours of engage and not even watch the story again. Seethe.
Did anyone see the excelblem ironman? I just want to know how on earth he managed to make Celine so fucking broken.
I'll watch later. Really I get frustrated watching YouTube FE players because I get frustrated that I still struggle with these games
Just gitgud
I keep trying to gitgud. For reference I decided to fire up FE7. I said this time around I'd Ironman it. I stared up Hector mode and then during chapter 3 on that fog of war map a cav walked through an opening I neglected and killed Rebecca.
>Rebecca died
oh no anon that's definitely reset worthy
I like Rebecca
I haven't resetted. It's just been sitting there waiting for me to decide if I really want to iron man this thing
Just keep going anon
Rebecca baiting an enemy with her body is literally her best use
Rebecca needs to stay alive so she can breastfeed Roy and Wolt.
It's fine because FE7 is just non canon fanfic shit
shut up shut up shut up
Random growths.
Blessed MAG/DEC+Speedtaker+Levin Sword
Devs really wanted to overcompensate for Swords/Bows being shat one for decades and decided to make the best weapons of the game.
At least Axes/Bow/Tomes weren't completely forgotten since they have Killer Axe/Silver Great Lance/Thoron to defend themselvs.
Daggers fill a niche and only Fists got fucked over due to their extremely low Mt and using STR/MAG average for damage.
He uses dlc so I don't care
Did he feed her Tiki though?
On that note does anyone know how tiki works on static stat growths? Is it just a flat addition to your stats?
>Random
15% extra chance of getting the +1
>Fixed
CharA has a 40% STR now it gets 55% so instead of earning his +1 at lvl 3(40+40+40=120, the 100 turns into a +1), it will earn it in lvl2 (55+55=110)
Yup. Giver her or Starsphere to anyone who wants build. For the same price as +2 Mag and +3 Speed, you can grow into +3 of all your stats including Bld. And its only one SP slot or just wear tiki ring. For a lot of build-lets like Anna thats double the speed growth. Really only worthwhile on earlier units obviously.
You were supposed to farm online and do skirmishes to keep your team up
It does feel like they wanted you to do skirmishes or the dlc with the early units.
I hope I made the right decision here
Berserker is awful in Engage and Warrior is probably her best class
With Ike though her berserker abilities really shine.
The low dex cap hurts Berserker too hard, Warrior also uses Ike well and is better all around
There's nothing unique about Berserker other than slightly higher str growth and S Axes which aren't really relevant.
You can pretend Warrior is a Berserker and not use bows at all, and you'll be better off for it.
But where's the soul?
>lost the dress
CRINGE
Unless you capped DEX with her already you missed some STR, but she's going to crit anyway so not that big of a loss
If you're not building her for Crit with the Ike ring I suggest hero instead paired with dual assist+. She's considerably weaker without Ike but dual assist+ and 2 backup attacks make up for it somewhat.
Genuinely just use whoever the fuck you want, and you'll be fine, unless you're a filthy metaslave.
>same hair as Celine
I love her.
Ngl every time I summon a emblem with Veronica’s ability I get really happy.

https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/630640626/
It's funny how quickly 3H thread died, there are more people discussing Engage, GBA & FE4 than 3H now that all the masses have moved on.
Why's Engage selling less than 3H then?
>muh sales
Why is 3HrT a bad game again?
You guys sure cared a lot about muh sales when that fake preorder image was going around prerelease. Lmao
>You guys
>Why's Engage selling less than 3H then?
Less advertising, released during the worst month, understocked. didn't hook the masses, you know stuff like that, but you keep being a schizo, see if I care.
>understocked
not true btw
Yes it was.
No, it wasn't. This is the same pathetic cope that snoys use about the PS5 shit sales
>m-m-m-m-m-muh stock issues!!!!!
Copium
It did have physical stock issues dumbass, just because it didn't contribute to the overall sales that doesn't mean it didn't happen. If you were smart, you could tell that IS & Nintendo themselves didn't even expect this game to sell as well a 3H.
>did have physical stock issues
Nope. Zero proof of this. If you're expecting ANOTHER 200,000 stock order for Japan you are absolutely delusional
All of the psysical stock sold out in the first month in Japan & they had to restock it. I don't know why we're having this argument anyway, do you seriously believe Nintendo & IS give a fuck whether 3H or Engage sell more, they're still getting money either way and they don't care if a game sell less than it's predecessor as long as it meets sales expectation, as show with SOV.
The initial shipment was sold through, it wasn't "sold out" because it's still readily available at every Jap retailer and is even on sale on many of them including Amazon. No is one is ordering more stock because it's not selling. It has zero legs, much like Xenoblade 3
Whatever, keeping making up stuff to suit your narrative, I guess you're going to go on about Xenoblade 3 & DE being a ''flop'' too just because they didn't sell as well as 2, just goes to show you have zero clue how business works.
>keeping making up stuff
Like you and your fake stock issues? Lmao
So you're admitting to making up a narrative goo to know.
You're the one making up a copium narrative about muh stock issues
>You're the one making up a copium narrative about muh stock issues
Nah, I believe that's you.
I guess you need to tell yourself that to cope.
>I guess you need to tell yourself that to cope.
Don't understand how I'm coping, I don't know if you can tell, but I don't care whether Engage or 3H sells more, I just like calling dumbasses like you out.

Whew I love this game.
Is Poison supposed to be niche or am I just fucking up how to use it? I use it wear down absurdly high HP/DEF targets alongside Chain Attacks but I feel like I'm a brainlet that's missing something.
Poison simply adds +1/3/5 true damage for 1/2/3 stacks
On a unit with Lucina who can Chain Attack you can stack it up relatively fast and it makes a difference, but if you add 1 stack per turn the boss is probably dead before you ever benefit from it substantially
Cool, thanks for the heads up.
Poison is generally pretty negligible for most things. The one good thing is that it's basically true damage so even 0 damage attacks can start doing damage from poison stacks, but there are rarely anything that you will not be one- or two-rounding where poison stacking actually matters. Maybe some bosses.
Anyone got that screenshot with the two Dwagons?

It was really fun.
DLC maps were pretty well thought out (except for Camilla's and Hector's) and are harder than most normal chapters. One of the few instances where the FE DLC feels like it's worth something, but the bar is pretty low.
I hated Chrom's map more than Hector.
They triggered the water fast as fuck on me, I heard that some guys got it until destroying the barrier.
no one cares about FLOPgage
Why did they make the Wo Dao shit compared to the Killing Edge? It's supposed to be an upgrade, not a downgrade.
Killing edge is heavier & more powerful, Wo Dao is lighter & wore likely to crit.
Wo Dao has less Crit than killing edge in engage
All of you who played 3H and not only didn't burn your copy but also actually enjoyed it should just stop posting any opinion about FE for the rest of your life.
The 1st map of Engage has a better gameplay than 4 full routes of 3H.

I can't decide wich girl to marry they are all great, someone decide for me
Marry Celine so you can fuck her over Alfred's grave.
Veyle since she is your sister
Pick Saphir. She needs it the most. She's getting to the point where she's drinking tequila imported from Solm and wearing a sombrero she's nicknamed Sombronero
I bet you used Kagetsu and think you beat the game like a bitch.
Kagetsu is a fun guy and is very flexible physical unit
I was going to agree with everything you said until...
>I wanna lick Corrin's dirty feet
What's wrong with you? Take your dumb dragon and get out!
Every engage thread is the same shit you just talk about stats and builds
What's wrong with that? Would you rather we be waifufagging?
Yes it just shows no one cares about the characters
you dont like fire emblem
bro, get real. You only care about a character when they perform well while playing the game because most of them have barely any personality.
Lyn is one of the most popular characters in the series and you know about her viability.
yeah people really love lyn for her character and personality. like eliwood
I love her for her long, lean legs of a personality.
same
the lyn assist trophy reveal in brawl was fucking awesome
I mean, the fact that she is obviously in love with (you) probably didn't hurt.
It's definitely not because of her personality either. When did everyone one get so delusional all of a sudden?
You're forced to do Lyn mode into Eliwood normal so she'll be really good there, first impressions and all that
Lyn is liked because she's baby's first waifu, the same reason Misty from Pokemon is liked, Eliwood has more personality & character depth than Lyn & Hector, but he's the least popular because he's a mediocre unit when you get him & doesn't have the advantage Lyn has of having a tutorial.
Nah, it's because pretty much because he comes off like a pussy next to Hector.
Same reason why people dislike Male Corrin and Alear.
3h characters have more personality
3H isn't like most FE games.
And? Go try and talk about Ignatz, Caspar or Cyril and see who gives a fuck about them.
You do realize that people in this thread are posting about the characters right, it just so happens that we actually like to discuss gameplay as well, you know the thing that matters the most in a video game.

See, this is why you gays should just take the elitistpill
Who is the weakest protagonist based on feats?
Eirika.
Feats?
Marth
They've never tried to retcon the "leader and not a great fighter" deal he has, and neither Falchion nor the Archanean Fire Emblem have any particularly special abilities besides being unbreakable and sealing dragons. Even Leif is likely stronger in a duel since he has minor Holy Blood.
Damn, Marth is a jobber. Anri did the work all by himself killing Medus while this moron can't even fight off one enemy kek.
Doesn't Eirika have a similar deal, just with Ephraim soaking up even more of the praise.
Yeah, but the twins come as a set
Yeah, but Eirika was never a warrior. She accepted her role as a leader and knew how to fight, but Ephraim was always the strong one. The two compliment each other. Ephraim is headstrong and great in a fight, while Eirika is better at seeing the big picture and other nerd shit.
Yeah, but the question was 'weakest protagonist', which I assume meant worst in a fight in terms of story.
Sigurd, cuz he ded
Sigurd
Can’t even properly conquer an entire continent without dying
Sigurd
Leif. His ultimate endgame is having his campaign fall apart and needing to be bailed out by Seliph at the start of FE4's Gen 2.
>this is what redditards actually believe
Are they still seething about FemByleth’s outfit as well?
That's never the case with anyone outside of Kagetsu.
Ivy is mediocre compared to Citrinne.
Zelkov only has 2 more strength than Yunaka while being worse in everything else that matters and still worse at killing things reliably
Panette isn't even doing the same role as Anna
Merrin isn't better than either Yunaka or Zelkov especially with her terrible strength
Bunet is just terrible
Pandreo barely has more magic than Celine and isn't really going for the same builds as her either.
Goldmary is average at best and carried by having almost immediate dual assist.
Rosado has very low strength at base
Lindon is mediocre with just some meme builds to try and help with his middling stats.
Saphir is just terrible.
Mauvier has poor offensive stats and is just carried by good build and staff utility.
Veyle also has middling stats and is carried by her dragon typing and PRF weapons.
Your retarded ass probably has only watched some dumb youtuber tier list and never played Maddening yourself.
stop playing in normal you shitter
Learning how to balance your exp distribution, shitter.
Don't even have the expansion pass either.
>Panette isn't even doing the same role as Anna
Obviously???? One is a fast offensive mage while the other is a physical crit beast? They have different niches.
Mage Anna is overrated as fuck.
>Ivy is mediocre compared to Citrinne.
I agree with this one, her only appeal is being a flying mage, she was dead weight on my Maddening run and only became slightly useful thanks to Corrin's skills, because Corrin is second only to Tiki when it comes to salvaging bad units
I also agree. She didn't really excellent at anything on Maddening for me besides mobility, and hit like a wet noodle. But everyone and their mothers have been shilling her relentlessly and I just don't really get it.
Ivy is strong if you keep Lyn on her, but Citrinne needs Olwen or Mae's S Rank Bond ring to be effective after chapter 10. If you haven't save scummed for one of those, Citrinne is too slow to be salvageable even if you put Lyn on her.
Ivy is barely faster at all than Citrinne, on average she only has about 2 more speed over Sage Citrine by end game and giving Ivy the Lyn Ring when she can't make any use of of the Engage Attack or Weapons is the pinnacle of retardation, her offensive stats are utterly mediocre compared to various other options if getting extra speed is what you're oh so desperate over.
Ivy fags are so fucking pathetic.
what the fuck is this cope
>c-c-c-cope!!
>zero arguments whatsoever
Seething and mindbroken by facts and logic.
Holy mother of cope
Whatever weaknesses Ivy has, Citrinne also has on top of being a glass cannon and with no flying or staff utility as a mage knight
Zelkov has higher HP and def and also starts at a much higher level than Yunaka which is crucial on maddening
All dagger users suffer from bad str by endgame, so I don't know what your point with Merrin is there
Pandreo is unequivocally a better mage than Celine, stop feeding her magic cocaine
Goldmary being an extremely low investment brave assist bot is part of what makes her so good. What's more is her def growth is so high that you can reclass her to great knight or general and have a speedier Louis
You get both Mauvier and Veyle right when the game gives you 2 more deployment slots so it's kind of a no brainer to use them, they get a lot of SP right off the bat so you can immediately give them the abilities they need, and Veyle comes with a magic dagger on top of being the best Byleth support
>Whatever weaknesses Ivy has, Citrinne also has on top of being a glass cannon and with no flying or staff utility as a mage knight
Flying utility is completely worthless for 90% of Engage and is instead a complete detriment as Flying Engage bonuses are the worst in the game.
Ivy having more defense is also worthless as she has Bow weakness, can't make use of any terrain and everything in existence has at least a 15% crit rate against her due to her non existent luck stat. in reality she's even more frail than Citrinne.
>Zelkov has higher HP and def and also starts at a much higher level than Yunaka which is crucial on maddening
>>>>>
is crucial on maddening
Holy fucking cope, your Thief shouldn't even be getting hit by physical attacks to begin with while Zelkov gets melted by any Magic unlike Yunaka who actually has good res.
>Pandreo is unequivocally a better mage than Celine, stop feeding her magic cocaine
Pandreo is better for having a more build and a better personal skill for combat, but that's primarially because you're more inclined to make class change him into whatever while you keep Celine as a Vidame which yo build differently than a normal mage.
>Merrin
You don't even have an argument here retard.
>Goldmary being an extremely low investment brave assist bot
You literally just reposted what I said, and anyone can be a Brave assist bot, that doesn't make her stats not be mediocre outside of defense which is whatever.
>You get both Mauvier and Veyle right when the game gives you 2 more deployment slots so it's kind of a no brainer to use them
You have no argument here either and that doesn't make them outclass any single member of your team, fucking retard.
>bonded shields with another flying unit
heh, nothing personnel
Oh look, it's another retard who thinks that Cavs don't have the exact same bonus while being a vastly better class type, or that Qi Adepts don't have 100% bond shield for every unit in the game.
Let me guess, you're going to try claiming that Canter is exclusive to fliers as well.

Man, after a day or two finishing Engage, it really dawns on me how much I enjoyed it this time around.
I would be seriously happy if they continue down this route even if every other retard rather have dumb pretend relationships systems rather than better gameplay.
Fates managed to fix Awakening, as long as ISIS can fix 3HrT it would be golden.
>Fates managed to fix Awakening
Not really.
Yes it did. Why are you talking about things you don't understand?
Not him, but to be fair, it unironically did. Awakening's pair up system was stupidly busted, and Fates balanced it out perfectly. It also made weapons of all levels useful in different situations, as opposed to Awakening where if I remember correctly you just forged the highest tier weapon and called it a day.
awakening's issue are it's lazy trash maps
And the shitty mechanics Fates needed to rebuild from the ground up.
BABY MAKING SEX WITH ELISE
Nakadashi your little sister!!
and its lazy trash unit balancing and its lazy trash character balancing and its lazy trash enemy balancing and its lazy trash story and characters
I can't see the core problems with Three Houses ever being fixed. Even if they made good maps that actually took advantage of the unit system, you still have the actual teaching and training portion of the game that make replaying a total slog.
The concept in itself is going to inherently make everything into a slog. The fact that all routes are 90% rehashed doesn't help at all either
I think 3 houses could work with a rehaul of the mechanics.
>all promotions are 100% success rate but require the proficiencies

>proficiency is obtained through a point system, tutoring a student gives them 1 point towards whatever weapon you choose, you can only tutor 2-3 students max between battles, remove motivation completely

>byleth is allowed 1 free point between every battle but only has enough to promote to mercenary at the start
It’s a very rough idea but it would cut down on a lot of the monastery stuff you have to do while not removing the concept completely.
They would need to cut down on the garbage busywork of the Monastery into something more palatable like My Castle/Somniel, stop reusing the utterly shit level design, and fix the dumpster fire mechanical balancing of Gambits/Combat Arts/Classes.
>every other retard rather have dumb pretend relationships systems rather than better gameplay
What's wrong with wanting to get actual decent characters?
So you're shitposting by posting Edelgard while saying that, right?
I don't know I'm just saying she's the most popular character from your franchise that's all.
No, Lyn, Lucina & Ike are far more popular than she is. Even in Japan, Dimitri & Claude outranked her in the polls. Only Amerimutt normalfags think she’s more popular than she actually is.
>most popular = good
>popular
Wrong.
>proceeds to post one of the worst characters in the entire franchise
Characters doesn't improve by you getting to know more about them. Anyone that isn't a braindead retard knows Edelgard was completely in the wrong and anyone siding with her is either retarded or horny, or both.
she was justified tbh

NTA, but how the fuck did that post get you this mad?
I'm not mad. I'm just saying it's bait, since it's a stupid take with an obvious direction for where the conversation will go.
You spammed a sentence over and over again anon, you don't do that if you're in the right state of mind. If you truly weren't mad then don't do that again because it makes you look mad.
>ctrl+c ctrl+v means you're mad and insane
is this your first day on the internet? you know you don't need to type that out, right?
You are actually retarded if you think spamming doesn't make you look mad because you can copy and paste. I don't know why that pissed you off so much but you need to relax anon
I'm not even that anon, I'm just saying you're a retard, and you continue to prove my point, you're too focused on making it sound like people who disagree with you are mad.
No one ever disagreed with me anon, what are you talking about? I just saw some dude spam shit and asked why a simple post got him mad enough to do that.
I'm not gonna believe that with how convinced you are that anon was mad. Once again, it goes back to my question, if this is your first day over here or something, have you never seen someone repeat a certain phrase over and over in Ganker for whatever reason? You're either new or way too invested in proving that anon to be mad.
>I'm not gonna believe that
OK? If you're not going to believe what I said what's the point in continuing to reply to me? I can say the only time I've ever seen someone spam something was because they were mad, but again you're not going to believe me so there's really no point in saying it. Just call me a retard and move on, especially if you're not the original anon. I just don't really understand why you started this argument. Do you just want the last word or something, because I can give that to you if that's what you want.
Why was she wrong?
It will always be funny how people not being able to play shipper emblem has caused so much seethe.
>Engage only sold 203k in Japan so far
>Xenoblade 3 sold 480k in same amount of time
FE sisters, the XenoChads are laughing at us.......
Do you base your enjoyment of single player games on how many other people bought it?
Didn’t Engage outsell Xenoblade 3? Why are you comparing them anyway?
we don't know but if that doesn't outsell it there will be butthurt
I’m pretty sure the early sales reports already confirmed it. It doesn’t matter anyway, they’re two completely different games aimed at different audiences.
>tits
who is this imposter
She got that Build+ from Leif.
she has breast modifier 1 like almost all female units
models arent canon.
Models are canon, prove me wrong
Breast size changes drastically for units depending on their class/outfit, and there are only 3 or 4 breast sizes in the game, and realistically there is much more variety.
It's because she's pregnant with my child.
>90% of the early units are garbage that get replaced by the midgame prepromotes instead of the latter being replacements
Nice, does that mean that the game is actually good for ironmanning? I hate how shit new fe games are now because they arent designed to be ironmanned at all
Surprised no one answered you but yes it's actually very good for Ironman runs
Would you even play Three Houses: But Good if IS ever attempted to make another game in that style? Pretty much every mechanic from the original would be a massive red flag to me, but like people have said in this thread they did manage to balance shit like pair up after Awakening.
pair up was balanced a lot better in fates. Was it a good mechanic? Fuck no. I'd take balanced out engage rings without nostalgia ghosts any day over the latest gimmicks we had.
>pair up
>balanced
Is he joking?
>was balanced a lot better
Does not imply it was perfectly balanced. Fire Emblem will never be perfectly balanced anyway, something being perfectly balanced usually means it's boring too.
Yes, having actual options instead of one OP thing that trivializes the game is so boring.
I don't know what you're even arguing for. Options 99% of the time has a better option that everyone uses after it's known to be the best.
Pair-up is a necessity in L+ as you can't survive without it (excluding a few situations in the beginning) and only trivializes Awakening once Robin starts snowballing. Fates breaks them up into Guardstance and Attack Stance, both being useful for different reasons.
>Was it a good mechanic? Fuck no.
Fates Pair Up was a great mechanic, Attack Stance was better than Backup Attacks and you needed to plan around enemies using both stances too.
It having different uses doesn't mean it was a "great mechanic", just that it wasn't outright mandatory. Enemies barely ever were using the mechanic too.
>Enemies barely ever were using the mechanic too.
You didn't even play the game.
>nuh-uh
then what makes it bad you fucking gay
Being almost needed to further use their terrible child unit mechanics.
Support ranks and how slow they improved meant you having to basically stick to making certain units just another unit's stats boost/cheerleader.
The very prospect of making a unit sit next to another and it working the way it does in the game, why is he just sitting there watching the other fight and only sometimes interventing? It's beyond retarded and makes everything look stupid.
Enemies not using it naturally and only forcefully, further showing that the mechanic just doesn't fit SRPG gameplay.
>to further use their terrible child unit mechanics.
It builds organically by positioning units adjacent to each other and Child Units are done better in Fates than Awakening and Genealogy by being excellently balanced by being useful but not broken or shit.
>Support ranks and how slow they improved
They don't have a slow increase at all, you can max out supports for any chapters by simply using Guardstance or positioning correctly for Attack Stance.
>certain units just another unit's stats boost/cheerleader
Sure, you can use Guard Stance like that. It's only one of the added benefits. Its real power is trading and rescue.
>why is he just sitting there watching the other fight and only sometimes interventing
Attack Stance isn't based on chance and Guard needs a gauge to be build which is just meter management. What are you even going on about?
>Enemies not using it naturally
I'm glad you can admit you didn't play the game even on Hard.
learn what words means. Pair Up is Pair Up, sitting a unit next to another doesn't involve Pair up, inbred.
Are you having a mental break down? Attack and Guard stance are Fate's version of pairup
Are you having one? Attack Stance and Guard Stance are part of the system, PAIR UP itself is fully connected to guard stance in Fates, and it's still a shit mechanic.
It's a great mechanic of which you have no argument against.
>and it's still a shit mechanic
why?
"Pair-up" is Guard Stance and Attack Stance from Fates, which is also called Dual Strikes and Double in Awakening. All of which is "pair-up", and Dual System is used exclusively in Awakening while both the player and enemy uses it in Fates.
>Support ranks and how slow they improved meant you having to basically stick to making certain units just another unit's stats boost/cheerleader.
you dont know how fates's support system works and are complaining about realism in a nintendo anime game. 6 rounds of combat in a chapter to hit the cap is too slow???? not only that, how about every other fire emblem game where they're sitting there NEVER contributing? i bet you think kids are bad because their implementation isn't realistic too. the fuck do you even get from fire emblem?
Holy fuck you are retarded. Enemies would actually set themselves up for attack stance all the time, retard. Go figure some braindead gay would prefer press X to awesome delete enemy button over actual positioning in a fucking TACTICAL RPG
>Enemies would actually set themselves up for attack stance all the time
Maybe in your game because you position your units terribly?
post save file
I don't keep a save of a game I beat nearly 10 years ago just so I can prove retards wrong on the internet. You are aware that attack stance has nothing to do with pair-up itself, right? For someone who seems ready to brag about how they beat Conquest in lunatic or something, you somehow doesn't seem to understand this basic concept.

Unironically have a nice day
My only complaint is
>hair clips through some armor classes
Could you care a little?
The clipping in this game is fucking awful, that's my only complaint about the graphics besides general art style. I started getting really pissed off every time Zephia appeared in a cutscene during my second playthrough.
>clipping issues
>"could you care a little"
Removing all clipping would probably make the game take an extra full year to release.
Maybe don’t make everything clip to begin with? Idk.
So everyone has short hair/helmets and uses nothing interesting as clothes? Wow, cool game.
>he doesn't know
This game sat on a shelf for 2 year before being released and almost character clips through their default costumes in cutscenes. How lazy and stupid can you be not to animate cutscene without them going through their clothes constantly. You’d almost have to intentionally do it at that point. I guess working on day one DLC was a higher priority
3H has pop in issues that never got fixed, so what it’s a minor thing.
>b-but 3H!!!!!
Pathetic
Pop in is far worse than clipping.
Clipping is extremely hard to deal with, have you ever seen or know anything of game development? It's impossible to get rid of without overwork.
It shouldn’t be a problem in cutscenes where the characters are hand animated, shit for brains. They intentionally animated these characters clipping through their default animations while making them. How hard is this for you to comprehend?
>It shouldn’t be a problem in cutscenes
Read that post over or concede by not know anything of game development.
>hurr durr i le accept you le concession 🙂
Get debate skills there, retard. I guess censorship in Engage is totally cool now because “the times are different” or some shit
You Engagefags really can’t keep deflecting all criticism to OLDER titles that were lambasted for everything Engage gets away with
>Get debate skills there
The fact you factually don't know what you're talking about? Sure.
lol gg no re
I accept your concession.
Japs aren't like western devs as long as the clipping isn't a major problem they don't care
fixing clipping is hard
Fuck off 3Hrchud
If that really is your only complaint, that means the game is perfect.
>Warrior Bouch and Halberd Alfred running away with male Alear and forgetting about the world

What are some other meme reclasses I should do? The only one I did in my first playthrough was make Lapiss a griffin rider with a Levin sword
Chloe Martial Artist
Is there any way to make Celine or Alfred good on maddening? Really how many of the early-game units are worth it on maddening fixed? I've heard Lapis can be okay if you change her to a wyvern rider.
Celine falls off near mdigame but after temporarily benching her, I just made her a griffon rider. She is great utility And can do good effective damage to fliers with Lucina if needed.
Celine has been working well enough for me so far. I'm about to lose micaiah though so we'll see how useful she stays. Been using both her and citrine since I used Clanne and ivy on my first playthrough. Made sure both of them inherited the +mag skill before THAT chapter
>Really how many of the early-game units are worth it on maddening fixed?
On the assumption the cutoff for early game being chapter 11, Vander is probably the only one that's truly unusable because of how slow exp gain is. Most units fall into a problem of their payoff isn't as rewarding as the amount of effort it takes to get there versus a later unit that takes signficantly less for the same result and better with investment. The worst of the bunch are Alfred's trio but they can still do the job you set for them. You might run into problems later but heavy investment will "fix" it. There's a reason there's so many wack stories of turning a shitter into a killing machine after dumping everything they had and giving them an Engage ring which is a busted mechanic.
You can make Alfred a GK but he'll always be lesser Louis
You would have to dump some consumables on them. Alfred can be really good with certain emblems.

Don’t. Care. Didn’t. Ask.

As apposed to competitive playthroughs?
Diamant, Framme and Jean are bad units for starters.
Is Diamant worse than Lapis? Also how is Jean bad, getting double class growths seems pretty insane even if it requires investment.
Yes, Jean is a net turn count loss.

yeah because abusing RNG constantly and resetting any time RNG is slightly not in your favor so you never have to actually adjust your strategy is "skill"
Guess you have no skill thwn if thats what you think of LTCing.
Did your waifu got cucked by the tierlists or what?
Jean's gimmick is that he's a jack of all trades. Doubling class growths means that he can do anything, but his unimpressive personal growths means he doesn't do anything particularly well.
Jean is there for people who enjoy min-maxing characters. Basically whether someone prefers growths or bases will tell you how they like to play the game. If you're a low-turn count autist, you like bases. If you're a character perfectionist, you like growths.
he's not good for that either considering his stats get pushed in extreme directions rather than capping everything.
Just make him a Royal Knight. It spreads the growths right across with only a weakness in defense which if you're being a stat cap autist then using Starsphere still bumps that up to 50%
or I could just use a better unit
Weird response but okay.
What if I like both? I unironically don't know how I feel about Anna. She has great growths but terrible bases.
Her unique skill can come in handy for extra money if you don't have the DLC
Giving Alear the hero outfit makes every thing seem a lot less clowny…
Reminder that 90% of the cast is invalidated by Kagetsu so you might as well just use characters because you like them.
>Kagetsu

I love how you Engagefags incessantly keep parroting stale Dark Souls memes. It’s really, really funny.
I like how 3HrT was a bad game. Actually, that wasn't good at all.
>stale Dark Souls memes
It's from Elden Ring and still extremely popular. You don't even play video games at all.
Cope
People overrate Kagetsu as this be-all, end-all unit when in reality he's not the best unit. He's just part of an elite squad of units like Panette, Attentionwhoretensia and Seadall.
Female Alear in the milk maid outfit you get at the beginning of the game has major cankles.
Reminder that Diamant is scared of hairy catapillars aka masculine men penises because of his overbearing daddy.
So how well does Engage run on Yuzu?

How's Fogado compared to Alcryst? I don't see anyone really talk about him. Also, what's the best character for turning into a halberdier?
lacks the crazy procs but has mixed enough stats to be a decent Radiant Bow user without significant investment
>Also, what's the best character for turning into a halberdier?
Halberdier is for salvaging speedlets so they can reliably double (player phase only).
If you're just asking who'll be the strongest halberdiers, then the no-brain answers would be Kagetsu/Panette/etc.
If we're talking who's worth turning into one, look for good str low spd units like Amber or even Alfred.
Would Bunet make a good halberdier?
Anyone who's physical-oriented would make a good Halberdier, the question is if their speed is too low for "better" classes like Warrior.
>9 base speed on a Solm join character
Sure.
I'm sick of brown man archers but the truth is that he's the best archer. Radiant bow is able to one round all fliers and can even chunk generals (feed him tonics and dust when needed). His blistering speed stat means he doubles everything short of the fastest speedsters and he has the build to pull off brave bow which means that he's quadding everything. Put eirika on him to offset his trash strength and you have the best archer in the game.

Rules:
>Can't switch emblems
>Characters can only inherit skills from their assigned emblem
>Proficiencies from other emblems are not allowed
>Bond rings until they get their emblems are a ok
Notes: I didn't randomize the whole roster since I don't like ALL the characters but they were 20 on the list. I included all DLC emblems cause I didn't use any in my previous run.
Thoughts? Have you used some of these pairs?
>Have you used some of these pairs?
>Louis - Ike
he WILL have too much defense to get targeted. He's got decent damage but not enough to one shot late game and he's going to be slow and inaccurate. Normally I'd say just grab divine pulse+ to make his accuracy good enough but without that he's going to be kind of shit other than a mobile wall.
>Framme - Celica
I see that you aren't using eirika so I'd recommend using her here. Monk gets a lot of value out of her per hit damage bonuses, and while master monk is a slow class framme is fast herself and there's always flashing fist art on top of that.
Switch Lyn and Camilla maybe.
Also Chrom scales with physical damage. Anna has highest magic growths so idk about that.
Forgot to mention I randomized who gets which emblem, so they're stuck with those. I also thought about randomizing the advanced classes but it seems way too bothersome.
What would be considered the "canon" team of fourteen characters?
Obviously Alear, the Royals and Veyle but that only makes up 10 so there's four free spaces left.
Vander, Clanne, Framme, Mauvier
That's the conclusion I came to as well but then I wouldn't know how to divide the Rings "canonically" outside of the rare few we do know like Alear/Marth, Celine/Celica, Diamant/Roy, Ivy/Lyn, Hortensia/Byleth, Timmera/Ike and if the opening is any indication Alfred/Lucina.
Sigurd, Leif, and Eirika originally belonged to Lythos so you could distribute them amongst the Stewards as you please
Sigurd could alternatively go to Veyle, since she's responsible for returning him to you in Ch. 17
Corrin was Solm's second ring, so she goes to Fogado
Micaiah is Firene's second ring, but Alfred's taken, so she can go to Mauvier, her user amongst the Hounds
Alear/Marth
Vander/Sigurd
Alfred/Lucina
Celine/Celica
Yunaka/Corrin
Diamant/Roy
Ivy/Lyn
Hortensia/Byleth
Timerra/Ike
Seadall/Corrin
Fogado/Goldmary/Eirika
Alcryst?/Leif (Unclear on who canonically would get Leif since he joins post battle, is used by Ivy as an enemy but she also uses Lyn and has precedence with the intro and premonition dream, and Leif only gets boss conversations with Ivy and Alear.)
Veyle
Mauvier

>accidentally got Rosado killed and didnt time crystal far enough back to save him
>now perma dead after all the resources ive dumped into him

Restart the chapter
>didn't dodge the 41% enemy hit
>next fe game has a true trans character
>they have a personal weapon
>devil axe
>it can't be unequipped.
Tragic.
>Bunet
It annoys me that he's got the possibility of being one of the best Byleth Emblem users in the game but it's tied entirely to luck.
Like who sat there and thought that giving Cheffery a skill to produce another meal after eating one should be Luck% rather than 1.5x Luck% so that you could just chain Celica's favourite lunch skill with Bunet's personal skill for infinite engage.

Probably the fact that that would be broke af, and they didn't want that
They gave Alear the ability to do the same thing when they gave him access to fists so they obviously didn't care that hard.
Bunet's luck is bad, a 1.5 multiplier wouldn't make much of a difference.
>Luckchad Bunet with Celine nearby
>he does nothing but pig out in the middle of the battlefield while tanking hits
That would honestly make him a more interesting character than what we got.
