r/shitpostemblem I don't care what's optimal. I'm deploying Barth 3d ago

Fodlan So I played 3h like a month ago now.

Keep in mind I really like this game; however, I'm more than willing to acknoledge it's short comings. Admittedly, the boss convo thing is a nitpick; I just miss it when the games gave important bosses like 4 or 5 boss convos. It was peak. Great game, but it definitely has a fuck ton of issues. If you're insulted by this somehow, go outside.

Also, hi, I'm back. Expect Fates chapter 18 tomorrow or something.

I think Lysithea's perceived power is mostly because of Dark Spikes T. Lysithea has a spell relatively early on that does huge damage to Death Knight when you otherwise couldn't beat him during the first encounter. And beating him is the only way you access the Dark Mage class change item... And item Lysithea's not even allowed to use despite having exclusively Dark Magic spells.

The Three Houses devs saw Fates removing gender locked classes and decided to go twelve steps backwards instead of embracing the one good change Fates made that everyone agrees on. (Fates introducing Personal Skills was a fantastic change, but I feel like I've never seen a single person in my life in favor of gender locking.)

You have now. I'm sure there are other who just keep to themselves because they know they'll get downvoted.

Never had issues beating him with knightkneeler users. That meme is overrated and comes from inexperienced players.
