Dat Rules
- Ratings are assumed to be on Hard 2 Mode.
- Votes need some explanation regarding their gameplay performance to be counted. If somebody else said what you want to already, quote them explicitly.
+/- ≤1 point extra regarding personality/appearance is encouraged, but no more. If you exercise your bias privileges, please do so explicitly. Also, if your vote is already a 10/10 or greater than 9 and you give a full point of bias, The score may not exceed 10!
- Numerical votes out of 10, or something proportional to it. Make it easy to calculate for my sake.
- Each ranking phase ends from 2100 to 2200 EST. 13th May start the topic again but i am not sure. Do the math if you are in another timezone!
- 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.
- "Recruits X" or "takes you to X chapter" arguments are explicitly banned. C'mon, people, this shouldn't need to be a rule. That's not gameplay performance.
- Assume that the character in question is being recruited.
- Similar to the "Recruits X" rule, do not use "He Comes with a Free Ridersbane" as an argument.
- I withhold the privilege to tell you your rating is bogus and demand you revise it if it breaks any of the above. I will not throw out votes anonymously, you will be informed and given a chance to revise.

He has decent growth rates I guess. But growth unit that joins in ch 12? yeah, way too late. Sorry Dolph but you sir, are better off being sacrificed for the gaiden so that GOOD units can get more experience. 1/10

[Ken Zomg]

This guy isn't even as good as Roger and comes later as well. At least you can use him to take shots from that archer outside the cell.
3/10

Dolph
* Begins in Chapter 12
+ Decent/Good Growths.
- For this point, Roger and Draug are better options, and Dolph will have problems to gain exp in hard/lunatic mode.
- Others units, can play the same role as a General better than him.

Score: 3.5/10

I think there should be some sort of test where new people have to recite the rules and stick by them for, like, five rating topics or something.

Dolph has okay bases and decent growths, but he really wanted to join at the same time as the Wolfguard. If you're willing to slow down a bit so he can train, he'll turn out all right.

2.5/10

EDIT: Sho has a minor point.

[Sho.M.the.Fallen]

Seriously? This thing getting better scores than matthis? the fuck?

His bases are cool but he comes too late, has nice stats as fighter but no ranks to pack them up. his lance rank serves no purpose. he just blows.

1/10 0.5 is bias because awesome looks

[General Horace]

good growths but bad base level and bases and no good weapon ranks for class b classes

so, useless pretty much

but 1/10 for

I won't be voting, but I am disappointed by the flagrant violation of this rule:

- 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.

Also... *looks at General Horace's post and laughs*
Dang, FE1 portraits sucked.

[Revenant]

Dolphin. You have nice growths. Your bases are actually pretty good... for your level. But yeah, you would have needed to join a looooong time ago for us to care. Joining as a Knight certainly doesn't help matters either since it's down to E-rank we go on reclass.

1.5/10

Sorry Dolph but you sir, are better off being sacrificed for the gaiden so that GOOD units can get more experience. 2/10

More like sacrificed for the 12x gaiden so we can get an actual competent armored unit.

[Elieson]

GRYZ, YOUR FACE!

But anyway, a mediocre unit coming at a bad time with poor bases and crap for weapon ranks.

.5, for decent growths, +.25 for being badass in my PMU run and ORKO'ing Medeus with a Parthia Crit.

.75

I won't be voting, but I am disappointed by the flagrant violation of this rule:

there's a difference between "not X" and "not as good as X" where X is a point of comparison

[Levant Fortner]

Well, you have a point. I must have misinterpreted.

[Aversa]

So now we're getting to the real scrubs.


Dolph sucks. He joins at a bad time without any redeeming features. His growths are OK, if you baby him he can turn out feasible, his endgame isn't horrible. But still, just... ugh.

.5/10

[Little Al]

People already covered my feelings about him. He has one of the best set of growths for a class B unit, but it doesn't really mean much if you can't really use them.

0/10

Bald badasses incoming. Sadly so underleveled.

.5/10. Terrible for this late in the game.

[Revenant]

Man, I feel bad for Macellan's upcoming rating, who in all practical senses, is a strictly inferior Dolph.

GRYZ, YOUR FACE!

It's just getting an update... eventually. No need to panic.

[Levant Fortner]

Man, I feel bad for Macellan's upcoming rating, who in all practical senses, is a strictly inferior Dolph.

You have a good point there. I imagine Macellan's going to get hammered even worse than Dolph.

[eclipse]

That was a terrible pun. At least Dolph can grow, assuming you get to Chapter 12x and feed him kills. Macellen. . .eh.

*shrug* It's not like I could think of a good one.

True.
