Fire Emblem Fates General Discussion: Filled with Nohrian Scum

Fellow Europeans, still tired of waiting for Fire Emblem Fates to release? Well, you'll be happy to hear that the recent Nintendo Direct finally revealed a release date. May 20th, it is!
 
May 20th is so far away though <:l still something though I guess.
 
EU release date is quite far, but I'm glad you guys finally have one!

I wish we'd gotten a poster with the special edition, but maybe I'll find one elsewhere.
 
So what class does your units have for endgame? I'm still testing out the classes in Hoshido but so far

Units I'm happy with:
  • Takumi - Sniper
  • Setsuna - Sniper
  • Azama - Great Master
  • Subaki - Falcon Knight
  • Hana - Swordmaster
  • Ryoma - Swordmaster
  • Saizo - Master Ninja
  • Kagero - Master Ninja
  • Orochi - Onmyoji
  • Oboro - Spear Master
  • Sakura - Onmyouji
  • Kaden - Nine-Tails
  • Scarlet - Wyvern Lord

Still need to test it/Unsure:
  • Corrin - Hoshido Noble
  • Hinoka - Kinshi Knight
  • Kaze - Mechanist
  • Mozu - Great Knight (wasn't satisfied w/ Merchant)
  • Hinata - Master of Arms
  • Felicia - Strategist
  • Jakob - Paladin
  • Silas - Great Knight
  • Rinkah - Blacksmith
  • Izana - Onmyouji

And the ones I want to change:
  • Hayato - Basara
  • Reina - Kinshi Knight

Anyone have recommendations for these units's classes?

wow you actually have good taste in girls for once

It was a toss-up between her, Kagero and Hana.

I heard Hinoka makes a pretty good Spearmaster, so I might go with that when I get revelations. Setsuna I kiinda wanna see how she does as a Swordmaster.

The rest will probably stick with their main classes.

I heard that as well, but I feel bad separating her from her riding class :( Plus she'd be useful if I need to activate a Dragon Vein in a map asap. Maybe I'll see if I can make Shigure strong enough to replace her and then change her class.

Got enough funds to get Revelations, now to wait for a week! Can't wait to see how the Nohr units are.

I'm going to do:

  • Takumi - Sniper
  • Setsuna - Sniper (Bench)
  • Azama - idk (Bench)
  • Subaki - Falcon Knight (Bench)
  • Hana - Swordmaster
  • Ryoma - Master of Arms
  • Saizo - Master Ninja (Bench)
  • Kagero - Master Ninja (Bench)
  • Orochi - Onmyoji
  • Oboro - Spear Master
  • Sakura - Priestess, but I may change it
  • Kaden - Nine-Tails (Bench)
  • Scarlet - Wyvern Lord (Bench)
  • Corrin - Dark Knight, been working out GREAT so far.
  • Hinoka - Falcon Knight
  • Mozu - Merchant maybe, but most likely will just be benched
  • Hinata - Master of Arms (Benched)
  • Felicia - Leaving her at Maid but I'll look around a bit more first
  • Jakob - Also leaving him Butler but will probably be benched
  • Silas - Paladin but will probably change to Great Knight after getting Aegis
  • Rinkah - Blacksmith (Benched)
  • Izana - Onmyouji (Benched)
  • Hayato - Basara
  • Reina - Kinshi Knight (Benched)

And you forgot the children so...
  • Kana - No clue, but something that can use magic most likely
  • Shigure - Falcon Knight
  • Dwyer - Strategist (Benched)
  • Sophie - Paladin
  • Shiro - Swordfighter (IF I COULD ACTUALLY RECRUIT HIM FGBDGHHNGHD)
  • Kiragi - Kinshi Knight
  • Asugi - Master Ninja (Benched)
  • Selkie - Nine-Tails
  • Hisame - Master of Arms
  • Mitama - Onmyouji (Benched)
  • Caledori - Dark Falcon
  • Rhajat - Barasa

Obviously I'm not going to use every unit, so a few of them are going to be benched, at least for now. So those units I don't really care about their classes. Also I just default all of the fliers to Falcon Knight since it's a lot better than Kinshi Knight, but I'm making Kiragi one to battle other fliers since he's one of the best bow users (He feels stronger than Takumi stat-wise, only thing putting Takumi at #1 bow user is the Fujin Yumi and how silly strong it is.)

I left out the kids on purpose heh. Not planning to use most of them as a main unit except Rhajat as she's pretty good as Onmyouji, and maybe Sophie because her personal skill would be fun to use. Still testing out most of them too.

What happened with Shiro?

Rhajat is just pretty good in general, but it's a confusing situation between her and Hayato.
Rhajat has higher Magic and Resistance, so she deals more damage and can tank against mages, while Hayato has higher Defense and Skill, so he can tank physical hits better and spam Rend Heaven a LOT more than Rhajat. So Hayato is for defending against physical units and attacking mages, while Rhajat is good for defending against mages and attacking physical units if that makes sense. And Orochi is there to pair up with whoever needs it more.

Shiro's recruit mission is just ugh. You need to spam Rescue staves but that's hard to do when there's enemies everywhere that will gang up on whoever is using the Rescue staves.

Actually I remembered that I was going to reclass Caledori into a Dark Falcon, changed it on my list.

- - - Post Merge - - -

does anyone collect or play the Fire Emblem Cipher tcg?

I need to import some of those, they look so nice. ;_;

I'm so happyyyy aaah I can't wait! The special edition version looks sooo good. I really want the new 3DS XL too, but I only recently got the Happy Home Designer 3DS. I'm sure there will be some FE cover plates coming out soon though...

Despite the fact that the Nintendo Direct was a little underwhelming (STILL no Zelda U...), I'm just glad we finally got a release date. Good thing - it's literally 2 weeks after my birthday! But... It's literally right before my exams start. x3 Thanks, Nintendo!

Rhajat ended up being a better unit for me than Hayato though, and even before she arrived, Hayato was already surpassed by Orochi and Sakura. He's not hitting as hard as I want him to, so maybe I need to work on his spear proficiency. I know I can bench him but I want to use every unit!

I think I did have a hard time in that map that made me grind all of my units. What I did was have the royals use Dragin Vein to make way for Ryoma and a small team to rush into Shiro, and another team take out the surrounding enemies. Onmyoujis and Takumi helped a lot with clearing the map, with Hana and Hinata to finish the job.

Mitama's quest was the hardest for me, for a while I couldn't figure out how to bypass the Berserkers while avoiding their kills. Had to make small groups to slowly clear the map while a small team guard Azama to reach Mitama.
 
Just bought Awakening about a week ago (used) and beat it yesterday save for several of the free DLC stages. It was my very first Fire Emblem game and I was hooked! I just bought a digital copy of Birthright and downloaded the Conquest path as well so I have a save file of each path.

For far I think Awakening's story and characters are going to be hard to top but that's just simply because I loved it so much. Fates looks really good so far though (I've done the 1st chapter for each side after choosing a side). Conquest is most definitely harder as it took me several tries to beat the first stage. I think it'll be a nice challenge though even if I'm basically guaranteed to get frustrated. Which when that happens I have Birthright to play instead or I can finish off Awakening's free DLC stages.

Just hope the game lasts me longer this time, as there is technically more gameplay due to the multiple paths. I'll try to not play it as much either haha as I was basically obsessed with Awakening and having a week off of college hasn't helped matters.
 
Does anyone know how much blocks Birthright/Conquest and Revelations use? I'm in Europe and I'd love to buy the SE because all three games would be on one card, but in case I can't find it (because of a limited stock or whatever), I'll probably buy Birthright and then download the two others. Also, if anyone has an idea as to how many blocks the map pack uses, that would be helpful too! Thanks!

well i have both Birthright and Conquest , and a few of the dlc maps and my blocks usage is 12,544 for all that , and extra data is only 6 blocks.

I started, but for financial reasons, had to stop.

I only have most of the first set, and second set, including a lot of the SR cards.

The last pack I pulled ever I got SR Camilla. <3

On a different note, level-ups in Lunatic appear to be fixed. No matter how many times I reset, no matter who levels off what enemy, they get the same level-ups as far as their stats go.Even the order characters level up in doesn't seem to matter.
 
EB Games in Australia presold out of special editions :'( they had a $200 "placeholder" price before the nintendo direct revealed it to be $130. So disappointed, I hope they restock...
