Integrity Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) Dat Rules - Ratings are assumed to be on Difficult Mode. - Votes need some explanation regarding their gameplay performance to be counted (unless they fall into the general parameters of the average rating, but reasoning is still strongly encouraged on those even if you just wanna quote people) — incredibly low scores or high scores without proper justification will not be counted. Don't put in some random text thinking it'd count as justification. Put in at least a little thought and give REAL reasoning. - Numbers for votes, please - not something like "Marcus/10", etc. Proper justification will be determined by me and whoever decides to help, whether it be Integrity and Integrity again or sometegrity else. +/- ≤1 point extra regarding personality/appearance is okay, but no more. - Votes out of 10, or something proportional to it. Makes it easy to calculate, please and thank you~! - Every ranking phase ends whenever I get out of bed, between 0700 and 0800 EST. Do the math for your timezone, Brits. - I will insist you do not use the "Not X" reason on any character, where X is another unit. If you do, your vote will be thrown out. - Ratings for characters should always assume the gameplay route YOU judge them best on. If I see "doesn't exist on ephraim" ANYWHERE in your rating for Innes I will be very cross and will probably throw out your vote out of spite. Average Ratings Amelia: 1.65 Neimi: 2.24 Gilliam: 3.27 Ross: 4.33 Lute: 4.80 Joshua: 6.02 Innes: 6.20 Natasha: 6.27 Colm: 6.32 Garcia: 6.88 Kyle: 6.89 Moulder: 6.89 Artur: 6.92 Forde: 7.04 Tana: 7.33 Eirika: 7.34 Ephraim: 8.13 Vanessa: 8.16 Gerik: 8.29 Tethys: 8.30 Franz: 9.32 Seth: 9.91 silver ein to differentiate you from other ein if you're going to keep posting in these threads, quit being a dick to everybody please Edited February 22, 2012 by Integrity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekkah Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Slightly better than Amelia, but probably worse than Neimi. 1.5/10 cause people will inevitably overrate her for boobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiff Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) Gerik and MarisaGerik remained a mercenary, and Marisa became his company's fencing instructor. Gerik returned the affection she gave him, although he was troubled to learn she was clumsy at everything but fighting. She's clumsy at fighting too +1 because she's still cute and being bad at everything is moe 4/10 Edited February 22, 2012 by tiff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewjeo Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Marisa is basically a trainee but with fourteen fewer levels to stop sucking so much. AKA she doesn't even get good if you use the tower, and she doesn't even have the chance if you don't. 1/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whase Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 urgh, I'd hate to give her a bad score, I like her a lot. But I have to admit, she isn't really any good. anything she can do, Joshua does better. swordlock means no good 1-2 range options. annoying to recruit on both routes. 3/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Joshua-lite, but in female version; she can crit alright but she comes in underleveled and gets easily offed a.k.a KO'ed which is sadfais; add to the fact that she is annoying to recruit too! Her support pool is even good, a fast one with Gerik and Tethys.... Shame about that... :( I'll be generous to give her... 4.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Odinson Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) Oh come on joins with the same base level as Joshua about 5 chapters later with worse bases and rank are you fucking serious IS And hell the other myrm like this (Fir) at least had AXEFEST to train herself, Marisa doesn't even have that Swordlock in FE8 goddamn crap move etc 1.5/10 because while she has shitty durability and shit she at least doesn't die in 1 hit to most thing unlike SOME OTHER PERSON (hence the .5 over) Also Shamshir is nice for Eirika or something Edited February 22, 2012 by Luminescent Blade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 She's not horrible to recruit on Ephraim. You only have to get Ewan and keep her alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Refa Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 It takes forever and you have to bait her with someone who doesn't have any weapons equipped, otherwise they'd kill her. It's easier, but it's not easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) I never found her recruitment either route to be much of an issue, really. Just check ranges meticulously and it's not like Gerik's gonna die if you're smart about it @ Eir route. Eph is obviously the easier recruitment, but a even dickishier time of training due to harder maps overall. Training her is such a pain in general though I've done it once on a run for Eirika+Jehanna characters and the effort I expended on her just got me an inferior Joshua. Not cool.

Mekkah Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 No, you just recruit Ewan, kill the Cyclops, and then Marisa decides to join you in a post-battle conversation. It is as easy as it gets as long as you have the manpower to kill the Cyclops in one turn (not one round). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renall Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Oh boy... Marisa. I'm not a huge fan of Myrmidons to begin with, and she's... well she's just not as good as Joshua, and in this game you get so many characters with partial or full WTC that swordlock is not pleasant even if it is not unsurvivable. Before promotion, Eirika is just flat better than her, and almost certainly outlevels her (and after promotion, Eirika has a horse, what up now?). Joshua has better HP, STR, and DEF, and they basically tie SPD as Swordmasters, so what's the point? She has better potential than Colm or Joshua as an Assassin, but solely because she's better with Silencer. In terms of actual fighting, Joshua still wins, and Colm is not nearly bad enough as a Rogue to recommend Marisa over him. At least then he could do something thiefy (however generally unnecessary that may be). She also comes late even in the best of cases and is underleveled. Support-wise she's good on paper, as she wants Attack but doesn't give it and many of her options do, but realistically her most probable support is Gerik, who is defensive, and he most likely doesn't want her because he could have Tethys or - here he is again - Joshua. They all happen to support each other, but Marisa is the fifth wheel in this case and is probably the one getting left out in the cold even if all of them are being used at once. Still, she is capable of killing stuff and is fast, and being the best Assassin choice is at least something for flavor I guess. If you're one of those weirdos who insists on having one of every promoted class you could make Josh the Swordmaster, Marisa the Assassin, and Colm the Rogue or something. But satisfying compulsive disorders being one of her better features doesn't speak well for her other traits. So about a 3.5/10. Not useless as a combat unit, but decidedly below-average. Tethys: 8.30 Ephraim: 8.13 Vanessa: 8.16 Gerik: 8.29 Franz: 9.32 Seth: 9.91 Order should be (top to bottom) Ephraim, Vanessa, Gerik, Tethys, Franz, Seth. Funny that Tethys beat Gerik by .01, at least that will calm the rage about Gerik being overrated, as the top three remains Seth, Little Seth, and Dancer.

Excellen Browning Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Needs to be fed always and will never catch up in either route. Unless you really go out of your way to do it. She's still more better than Amelia though. 2/10 seems fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onmi Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) 1/10. I never saw the point. Eirika is a Lord Myrmidon, Joshua is an earlier gained Myrmidon. she will always be locked to swords. and will be worse than other sword locked units. She has the tower. But even then why waste the time when Joshua is easier to train and Eirika promotes as part of the plot?

Shadow Mir Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 3/10. She's not good, but I think she deserves a higher rating than Gilliam. And.... I wonder if she can even fry an egg. (Probably not. Also, most of the reasoning I would've used was pracctically used up.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunwoo Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Marisa's a level 5 myrmidon who comes in at a time when you don't need a level 5 myrmidon. She's locked to swords, frail, and her strength and strength growth are low (as all GBA myrmidons). There's really no point in training her. She doesn't have a unique ability that only she can do, she can't get people to places faster, and ... well, what does she do again? At least she doesn't come in as late as Nino. -_- 2/10, because if you had her in a draft or something then perhaps she could contribute. But she's usually better off not hampering your party.
