Ouch Serra.
What, you like to take things nice and slow?
*face-palm*

Okay Erk. Lure the Soldier out, and Serra cover him in case he gets injured.

Oh thank Elimine!

Okay Matthew open the door. Everyone else rush in.

Nervermind. Matthew open the chest. Everyone let's look at that other door.



Doesn't Lyn's special sword also slay armor?
You want to know something?
Sure why not?




I'll remember that.





Okay Sain use your key to open the door, and then everyone rush in.

Joy.

Wait! Don't I know you?

Someone's staring at me!





How do you two know each-other?

Thank you Rath.

I'm getting healed aren't I?

Wow Erk.
Sorry Illven.

Don't worry Erk. I'll make you feel all better.

Well he's down at least.

Why am I dealing with him?
You need the xp.


I hope you're happy!
You'll be fine.


Ow!


Well that's certainly a step up from everyone else.

Let's get you patched up, before you step on the trigger.




As you wish.




This is Princess Lyndis.





Probably her granduncle.













Screw you! You racist....



If he does, he doesn't deserve a grand-daughter like Lyn!

Arggh! Level ups! Bad! Well in other news who gets the angelic robe? Or should I save it for later/Sell it? I'm thinking Lyn because I'm stuck with her, and she can have Hp issues. So let's start talking about next chapter.


Next chapter planning.

In the next chapter I can only bring 8 units. Lyn is required but the other 7 are up to me. I was thinking of dropping Sain (Due to me thinking Kent is better) and Wil (Due to Rath being better) Following are screen shots of my characters so that you may give me suggestions. Also please think about item placement.

Let's see, this next one is rescuing Ninan, right? I suggest giving Lucius the finish, bump him some XP. Also, get Lyn leveled up. I suggest the angelic robe to go to Lyn, Mahtew (if you intend to use him that much in Hector mode), or whoever you want to be a tank later on. Either way, use it or loose it at the end of Lyn mode.

Yeah and I have to beat it in 15 turns or less.

So I should focus more on Lucius and Lyn next chapter?

Well I have to keep Matthew alive until at least Ch 20 if I want to use his abilities, but Lyn guarantees the robe won't go to waste by the unit dying.

[Selpharia]

Popping in to suggest you give the robe to Lyn or Florina. Kick Dorcas out for this next chapter, positioning doesn't matter much. When I did this earlier today I had Florina solo the boss and his shamans while the rest of the gang fought down the long way. Erk is a lovely little monster here b/c he murders all non mages (along with most mages), and mages barely scratch him

Okay if I kick Dorcas out, who should I bring Sain or Wil. And remember that right now Dorcas is my only guy who wields axes. Would Sain or Wil really be an improvement over that?

And really about Erk? Doesn't this map contain Shamans which Erk has weapon triangle disadvantage against

[Anteros]

I've never really had much use for axes. Too low in the accuracy dept. Hector and whoever you use as your hero should be more than enough. Maybe Dart later on.

Personally I'd drop Florina, but that's just my own personal dislike of Pegasus knights rather than disliking her as a unit.

Give the robe to either Lyn or Matt. Personally, by the end game I hardly ever use Lyn except when the game makes me...and even then I generally have her just hold back and hide, or use her as an archer. She's just too fragile to be useful when one unlucky hit can lead to a game over.

I'd keep both Cavaliers. They generally both end up being great units by the end game, and they're going to be better than any other Cavaliers you get along the way. Not as completely broken as some units, but they make up for it with mobility.

[Farix]

I'd say drop Wil (Rath is better) and Dorcas (personal preference against Dorcas here). Definitely take Sain along, since the opportunity for him to hit on Lucius is too good to pass up.

Angelic Robe goes to Lyn, though i tend to give Lyn a lot of the skill items when I play as well as the first Lord promotion, otherwise go to Florina if you want to keep her as the Pegasus Knight.

[WhiteTiger1221]

This looks interesting, please allow me to join in viewing your nuzlocke adventure.

I know absolutely nothing about this game and am watching this completely blind. Thereby allowing me to recommend characters and supports without any regard for usability and usefulness. Forethought, who needs that.

Anyway, I recommend bringing Sain along because your extra dialogue for him is fantastic and it would be a shame to have that go to waste.

For supports I suggest:

Kain/Sain - Because the red and green knight usually have interesting supports.
Serra/Erk - Because the game is practically ordering us to do so and their extra dialogue is top notch.
Lyn/Florina - Because they are friends and I have no idea for who else they should support.

The others I'll have to wait and see but this does seem like it's going to be an enjoyable ride.

@Anteros I prefer to have at least one unit of each weapon type. (Unless the enemy forces only have weapons that are neutral or my unit is disadvantaged against.)

@Farix You prefer to give Lyn the heaven seal over Eliwood (It probably is a good idea considering the map you get it is a map full of Wyverns)

@Whitetiger1221 Well the reason I take hundreds of pictures is so people who never played this before can get the full story. (Which is also why I'm going to every chapter) Your votes have been counted.

Well now we learned from an independent source that the Marquess is ill. Will Lyn get there in time? Or will she have to fight the new marquess of Caelin? Find out eventually!

My thoughts on this chapter

Spoiler

Show

Well this chapter blew. Not because it was difficult or anything, but because every single level up blew except for Matthew which was only average. (Although the strength was nice)

I again allowed my units to get hit when they could to give Serra xp.

Arceus I hated the level ups. Dorcas only got Hp and Skl, Serra got Spd and Res, Erk only got Spd. I'm so happy right now that I have Pent as a back up.

New characters

Spoiler

Show

Matthew.


Well Matthew is a thief. Which means he has the power to steal items from other units. At times it's just a way to get additional xp. Others it's the only way to get the item. Matthew only caps Speed. But he caps at 30 at level 16. His combat ability when he promotes is pretty much limited to Silencer. Which is the assassain's skill. That ability has a chance to instantly kill a unit, (Equal to 1/2 the crit chance) This means that a Killing edge and Supports that boost crit rate are Matthew's best bet. An additional benefit is that I get him right from the start of Hector's mode.


Rath


Rath is Fe 7's only Nomad. Which is a mounted bow-user. Unlike archers when he promotes he gains the use of swords. The only stat Rath caps on average is Strength at 25 at level 18. But he still has good Hp, Str, Skl, and Spd growth. Some flaws he has are. A His defense growth is 10%. Which is abysmal. B I don't get him until Chapter 22 at which point. I've probably started promoting units, and he may still be level 7. Behind Nino he is my second favorite option for the Afa drops.

[Xondoure]

Surprised Ilven didn't get in a "now do you believe me?"

Out of curiosity are Ninian and Nils going to have the same precognitive abilities as Ilven or will theirs be totally unrelated?

A narration I actually agree with!


And even if he dies, to gut her grand-uncle.


And because we're good guys we have to help him, right?



Lyn, some little boy is asking for help.




What if “those men” are mistaken?



Wow. We're ignoring the little boy? Since her grandfather is dying, it counts as a neutral act right? Plus the fact I'm the only one who knows about it, and Lyn doesn't listen to my visions.





Sain to Castle Caelin





In a sense. What's wrong kid?

I already told him we are. If you were going to not commit, you should of spoke up.








And of course, Sain is interested.
Sain Only if she's older.
Thank Arceus!












They are traveling performers.

My reasons for the choices.

Spoiler

Show

I gave the Angelic robe to Lyn, since everyone agreed she was a valid candidate for it. Which reinforced my initial view that I should give it to her. (And the runner-ups Matthew and Florina were split)

I gave the Armorslayer to Kent due to him having better Con, and thus taking less of a speed hit for wielding it.

I dropped Wil since he wasn't as good as Rath. And due to dislike for Dorcas before I started the chapter I decided that I would look at the number of lance wielding enemies before deciding if I would use him. There were none, so I didn't bring him.

So now begins the long talking again. Also Serense forest lied to me. (This chapter has more pics then the last one.) Thankfully I think this one has more action.

[Illven]

Oh joy, you! Why couldn't I access it before?




Okay preparations.

Here's the robe Lyn.
Lyn Thank you, Illven

Okay Dorcas, and Wil sit out. Matthew and Rath come on. Also Wil, and Dorcas give up your items you won't need them on the back ranks.


Now what kind of dark arts are these. Are they baby eating monstrosities, or are they the nice spellcasters held by the class-ism of the others?




Make up your mind.

My name's Lucius.



He was...unpleasant.
Yeah he was.









Um okay.


So I should use pegasus knights like Florina?



Okay, let me get this straight. First you go on about how magic users can find it difficult to damage each other, then you want me to battle the shaman with the magic user? Kinda sending mixed signals.

I don't have a choice.

May St. Elimine strike you down!




Please tell me you pumped up inspire courage or Dragonfire inspiration.





So nothing like inspire courage, or Dragonfire inspiration.


Stat-o-vision
Everything acceptable?
Dear Arceus, you're fast. Although your defense could use a little work. A lot of work really.

And you're even faster.
And he knows what the ladies like! Oh Nils could you roleplay a sarcastic guy for me? I'll make it worth your while!
Trust me, I'm not your type.

I guess.

Dance to the beat!






Will that allow different musics?

Let me be clear, stay away from my man!
... I'll do my best?
Okay ignoring the fact that Erk isn't property. Erk very clearly does not want you.

I've got this one!

He's down now!


Sain This so called Black fang will find itself no match for my heroic passion!


Well of course they say that! They want people to buy their services. It's terrible advertising to mention that people can escape their bounty hunters or whatever.



Greeting miss.

My name is Kent. Knight of Lycia.
Ah, you're just passing through?
Correct, miss.


It's just a dead old snag, really.

Get more female teammates

[Selpharia]

Truly, Sain faces an unresovable conundrum. Removing his own contribution would mean more space for the loveliest of womenfolk, but, should he abdicate his post, he would lose all chance at proving his virile valor. A most intractable dilemma indeed.

Fun fact: Lyn hard mode is just regular mode without the helptext. Since 70% of all helptext and controlled turns involve stupid decisions, the end result is that hard mode is easier.

I love the Erk/Serra dynamic, but just can't bear to see my poor Erky suffer stuck with Serra after the game.
