First topic i've responded to in a looooong time.

In Dondon's 0% growth run, he uses Thany for a looooong time. I think she's pretty awesome, so 9/10. +1 Bias point for 10/10.

I want to play a FE6 draft so I can pick Thany because flight is that good. Thany is one of my favorites so 10/10 ;W;. I don't want my vote discarded, Thany spends her time contributing to the team ferrying and its just as useful too ^^' and she's one of the earliest units so she'll be contributing that much longer. 9.5/10

Poor Thany. Her only use is to rescuedrop. Then again this is FE6 and unless you're a prepromo you tend to suck unless you're Dieck or Rutger. 9/10 because she has a flying pony.

My memory of FE6 is bad since I've never played it. D;

Add Miledy to that duo so that it is now a trio.

His combat is pretty pathetic frankly, his durability is pretty bad and he tends to scratch enemies twice if he inflicts damage at all, but that's not why you're using him, is it? His unique utility is his main selling point, and the fact that he's the first gets him major brownie points. You'll get a few chapters of midgame use out of him, which is more than can be said for some other earlygame units, but once his level 10 compatriot comes around, unless you've been training him, he'll probably get benched. But that unit can't be everything and do everything at once, and he's the second-best, so there's hope for him yet. Just don't expect him to be swinging a Legendary Weapon around.


Spoiler -



Thany gets 7/10

Thany. That silly pegknight with the shit eating grin.

Pros:
Flies.
Rescue drop.
Decent speed.
Good availability.

Cons:
Really bad strength.
Defense is assy.

At first, she seems a lot like Florina. Unlike Florina though, Thany doesnt get that much better. Maybe i just have bad luck but she gets kinda crap ass growths across the board. Plus she likes to lag and be a serious pain in my ass to train. Sad, that. I really love pegknights. She is useful though for helping guys get to places.
7/10. Yeah thats a low rating for a pegknight coming from me. But i just dont have good luck with her.

As everyone has said she has a horrid str growth equal to a swordmaster, but she doesn't even have the decency to come with a Sm's base str. She can double almost anything the whole game long which is rare but even so she is doing about the same or less damage in 2 attacks then others do in one. Her durability relies on dodging which she does well thanks to 60% speed and luck growths. She flies though that makes her useful until you get Tate.

She gets a 7.5/10

But enough about Chad, he'll have to wait till tomorrow to be rated. Thany flies around, but there's not that many chapters where a flier is beneficial. Her starting chapter. Chapter 5 possibly? (The one with the gate where Saul does not join and there are mountains) Chapter 9 she can do villages if archers don't hit her. She busy recruiting her sister in the next flying is useful chapter, and chapters 13-15. After that, you've already gotten Ragnell Miredy and promoted/trained her, so Thany's now pretty superfluous.


Thany gets 7/10



You forget 8x, where she cuts your turncount in half. Also even when she's "busy recruiting her sister", her sis doesn't show up for a while. If you are talking Echidna's recruitment, how do you think you get characters over the wall to attack the boss and save the villages?

Shani is useful for ferrying, getting to the villages on time, and seizing maps faster by having her ferry Roy. It is advised to promote her on the Western Isles, because there are many Axe users in this game. Her Str is already horrid, so she should finish off enemies that are near death till her Str gets better, or just ditch her later when you get Thite if she got screwed which has a good chance of happening since her Str growth is only 30%. She'll also get the chance to use better weapons in a shorter amount of time to make up for her poor Str thanks to her great availibility. So....she at least should be used for ferrying. Her dodge is also great and having a great chance to find items in the desert in Chapter 14 thanks to her good Spd and Luk growths.

7/10

Wait. You're rating a character in a game you've never played?!

Because it's so difficult to determine just how useful a unit can be in a Fire Emblem game in a forum in which everyone likes to talk about how useful/terrible certain units are.

I think I can do just fine in rating certain units based on that alone since FE games generally aren't all too different from game to game with some exceptions.

she has okay combat with her okay stats and okay growths. the thing to make her great is her being the only flier for quite a while.
I don't really like mounts.
7.5/10

I actually really like Thany; she's a Pegasus Knight for one. Flying by Chapter 2 is really great and helpful all around. Great design-- doesn't that smile just brighten your day? I can just imagine her smiling while she's slaughtering a Brigand, just laughing at the fact that he can't hit her.

Plus, she has GREAT hair. 10/10
