Yeah. I want to try to finish this game like, the right way. loooooool.

Naturally its normal mode.

Sock me some ideas. I know (mostly) whos good and who isnt. So i dont need a lot of help there.

Which route should i take?
Also anything else you want to add?

[HF Makalov Fanboy Kai]

take your least favorite routes.

[Integrity]

echidna's route, ilia. It's the only way.

[Thor Odinson]

Use Echidna while you're at it.

[Aquaman]

Echidna route->Illia.

[Little Al]

Go the Echidna route then the Sacae route. I don't know what else to add at this point.

Echidna's route is easier?

Also to Thany or not to Thany. That is the question. I love pegknights but...yeah.

[Elieson]

I'm still on my first run too. Just reached Lilina & co. Shall I take Ilia too?

[General Horace]

Bartre and Sacae

Seeing as the second route is determined by what characters you want to use, it's up to you! I usually end up going Sacae since I don't like the pegs in this game.

[Liquid Snake]

Do the Bartre route. It needs more love.

Also do Sacae.

[Elieson]

Oh...u don't choose the route by choice like in fe8?

[General Horace]

Oh...u don't choose the route by choice like in fe8?

For Bartre/Echidna, it depends on which village you visit in chapter 9. If you don't visit either, I believe Echidna is the default. For Ilia/Sacae, it's similar to the Kenneth/Jerme split in FE7, except it uses the levels of your Pegasus Knights and Nomads instead.

Oh...u don't choose the route by choice like in fe8?

Ilia is apparently default, so I imagine it will be reached if Thany is dead, and if Tate, Sue, and Shin are either dead or not recruited. Otherwise Ilia is reached if Thany and Tate's levels > Sue's and Shin's levels, and Sacae is reached if Sue's and Shin's levels > Thany and Tate's levels.

[Elieson]

Shin sue or thany tate? Hmm, I don't like nomads to much, so I am doing ilia I guess.

Mmk, thanks ~

[Thor Odinson]

Echidna is coolest use her.

Ilia is default, yeah, but the pegs suck at fighting (HM Tate's not that bad though but on NM eeeesh) and Shin's pretty good and Sue's okay. So if you wanna go Ilia and use one of the nomads, you'd have to powerlevel a peg a bit. I suggest vs Soldiers since they're really squishy and even Thany can do good damage to them. If going Sacae, just spam Shin. Even without the HM bonuses he's still pretty good.

dunno per easier, but echidna is a damn sight sexier than bartre and lalam is fucking hilarious which is reason enough to go echidna route

[Florina Stark]

K. I think ill do Echidna's route. I think i may have on my unfinished file full of fail too. I remember using Sue and her turning out pretty great. Shin comes later right?

[Scarlet]

I remember using Sue and her turning out pretty great.

Sue can be decent, but she tends to have Str problems, which limits her usefulness.
I guess she's alright on Normal though.

Shin comes later right?

Just a bit. Sue joins in chapter 6, Shin joins in chapter 9.


Also, go Echidna -> Sacae. Sacae on Hard is fun.

K, i like, know who my team will be. (only on chapter 5 now but its abundantly clear. So this is for the time being.)

Dieck
Alan and/or Lance
Marcus (for now)
Lugh
Rutger (omg)
Thany
Clarine

[Merry Sioux]

Sue is good, you just need to load up on killer bows (Killing Edges as well if you wanna use her as a swordie post-promo)
