So I just cleared hard with random pairings that I went off aesthetics since I can't really read japanese that well. But now, i'm starting a lunatic file and would like some feedback on what pairings are optimal, or at least effective. My plans so far: trueblade MU(+str/-def or +spd/def, idk) and Felicia (class undecided) OR FeMui (same class/assets) and Joker if I decide to pair Felicia with Leo Paladin Xander and Berserker Charlotte Dark Knight Leo and either Felicia or Nyx Berserker Arthur and Berserker/General Effie (changed by recommendation) Hero Luna and Managarmr Flannel Berserker Belka and General Benoit Along with the pairings above, I would like to use Kaze or Zero, or even both, as mage killers, but have no idea who to pair them with or classes. I'll get all the children for experience, but i'm probably not going to invest in them because I'm focused more on clearing the game rather than pvp/postgame (nohr grinding sucks), so i'd like opinions on how to optimize the first generation. Any suggestions on how to improve my current pairs or finish up my remaining ones?

Lazward. A mercenary of Nohr; Xander’s subordinate. His origins and past are a complete mystery. Though he’s a cheerful womaniser who routinely hits on girls, he’s very shy underneath. He’s an aspiring dancer who’s skilled at dancing. Out at night more than anyone else. [spoiler=Marriage/Buddy Seals] Spoiler (Marriage/Buddy Seals) A Marriage/Buddy seal allows a unit to reclass into one of the select class trees of his spouse (S support) or buddy (A+ support). A unit may only achieve an S support with units of the opposite gender (exc. Kamui, Syalla, Zero), and may only achieve an A+ support with units of the same gender. (The credit for the following information goes to Gayserbeam, as I copied the wording of his explanation. Check out the Class Changing and Inheritance Thread for more information. If the users Primary Class is different than their Spouses/Buddy's Primary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouses/Buddy's Primary Class, even if the user has that class as a Secondary Class already. If the users Primary Class is the same as their Spouses/Buddy's Primary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouses/Buddy's Secondary Class. If the user is married or buddied with a unit who has an unlearnable class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouses/Buddys Secondary Class.An unlearnable class is a class that may be unique to a character or their children. The following units have unlearnable classes: Nishiki (Fox Spirit), Flannel (Garou), Azura (Singer), Mozume (Villager). If the user is married or buddied with a unit who has an unlearnable class, and their Primary Class is the same as their Spouses/Buddys Secondary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouses/Buddys Substitute Class. A Substitute Class is simply a select class a character with an unlearnable class passes down under certain circumstances. The following units have Substitute Classes: Nishiki (Herb Merchant), Flannel (Outlaw), Azura (Rod Knight), Mozume (Herb Merchant). If you're still confused, let me use Lazward as an example to try and clarify matters! Lazward/Pieri: Lazward's Primary Class is Mercenary, and Pieri's is Cavalier. Therefore, Lazward would Marriage Seal into Cavalier.Lazward/Saizou: Lazward's Primary Class is Mercenary, and Saizou's is Ninja. Therefore, Lazward would Buddy Seal into Ninja. As Lazward's Secondary Class is Ninja, he would not receive a new class tree from Saizou. Lazward/Luna: Lazward's Primary Class is Mercenary, and Luna's is Mercenary. Therefore, Lazward would Marriage Seal into Luna's Secondary Class-- Pegasus Warrior. Lazward/Azura: As Azura's Primary Class is Singer, an unlearnable class, Lazward would Marriage Seal into her Secondary Class-- Pegasus Warrior. Lazward/Mercenary!Avatar: Avatar's Primary Class is Nohr Princess, an unlearnable class. Lazward's Primary Class is Mercenary, and Avatar's Secondary Class is Mercenary.

My favorite class is the Mage class line, or to be more specific, the GBA mage class line. I just simply find the animations of the Mages and Sages attacking and evading to be exciting to watch, and are my personal favorite. My least favorite class line is the Cavailar class line. I just find them boring. One of the reasons why I like the Fire Emblem is the battles that take place, as units get spectacular attacks. The Cavaliar class line gets a horse they ride and it neighs and jumps when crits. I simply don't find that very exciting. It also does not help that I find a lot of characters that are Cavaliars to be very samey, with the character trait of "Very serious and patriotic that thinks their country and their king/queen is the bee's kness".

Much to my surprise, there wasn't a topic that really discussed this aspect of the new class designs.

Hinata. A Hoshidan samurai; Takumi’s subordinate. Hails from a family of samurais who have served the capital for generations. He’s rude and easily gets into fights, but well-respected for his honest and frank personality. Strangely weak to women. Loves open fields. [spoiler=Marriage/Buddy Seals] Spoiler (Marriage/Buddy Seals) A Marriage/Buddy seal allows a unit to reclass into one of the select class trees of his spouse (S support) or buddy (A+ support). A unit may only achieve an S support with units of the opposite gender (exc. Kamui, Syalla, Zero), and may only achieve an A+ support with units of the same gender. (The credit for the following information goes to Gayserbeam, as I copied the wording of his explanation. Check out the Class Changing and Inheritance Thread for more information. If the users Primary Class is different than their Spouses/Buddys Primary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouses/Buddys Primary Class, even if the user has that class as a Secondary Class already. If the users Primary Class is the same as their Spouses/Buddys Primary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouses/Buddys Secondary Class. If the user is married or buddied with a unit who has an unlearnable class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouses/Buddys Secondary Class.An unlearnable class is a class that may be unique to a character or their children. The following units have unlearnable classes: Nishiki (Fox Spirit), Flannel (Garou), Azura (Singer), Mozume (Villager). If the user is married or buddied with a unit who has an unlearnable class, and their Primary Class is the same as their Spouses/Buddys Secondary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouses/Buddys Substitute Class. A Substitute Class is simply a select class a character with an unlearnable class passes down under certain circumstances. The following units have Substitute Classes: Nishiki (Herb Merchant), Flannel (Outlaw), Azura (Rod Knight), Mozume (Herb Merchant). If youre still confused, let me use Hinata as an example to try and clarify matters! Hinata/Orochi: Hinata's Primary Class is Samurai, and Orochi's is Spellcaster. Therefore, Hinata would Marriage Seal into Spellcaster.Hinata/Rinkah: Hinata's Primary Class is Samurai, and Rinkah's is Oni Savage. Therefore, Hinata would Marriage Seal into Oni Savage. As Hinatas Secondary Class is Oni Savage, she would not receive a new class tree from Rinkah. Hinata/Hana: Hinata's Primary Class is Samurai, and Hana's is Samurai. Therefore, Hinata would Marriage Seal into Hana's Secondary Class-- Priest. Hinata/Mozume: As Mozume's Primary Class is Villager, an unlearnable class, Hinata would Marriage Seal into her Secondary Class-- Bowman. Hinata/Samurai!Avatar: Avatar's Primary Class is Nohr Princess, an unlearnable class. Hinata's Primary Class is Samurai, and Avatar's Secondary Class is Samurai.

I guess this is kind've similar to a "What's your favorite class?" type of question, but I'm sure some have other reasons as to why they would make Kamui a certain class, like gameplay reasons, what they feel fits into the story, and so on. Of course picking just based on your favorite class is fine, it's what I'm doing. Top 5 for me: Butler, Ballistician, Holy Lancer, Puppeteer, Weapon Master

So this topic is the parallel of the "Best Units and Classes" topic. So far I've heard that Odin, Subaki, and Hinata aren't very good in their base classes. Also, the Pegasus Warrior class is said to be bad, and that characters such as Hinoka do much better as Holy Lancers.

This poll talks about which side has the better classes! You can vote for skills, design, obviously the classes themselves, and uniqueness if you really want to!

Sakura. Princess of Hoshido. Shy and bad at talking, but has a kind heart and wishes to heal the suffering of others. She also has a strong-willed side, where once shes decided on something, she absolutely will not back down. The best at healing.

Therefore, Elise would Marriage Seal into Jakob’s Secondary Class-- Cavalier. Elise/Flannel: As Flannel’s Primary Class is Garou, an unlearnable class, Elise would Marriage Seal into his Secondary Class-- Fighter. Elise/Rod Knight!Avatar: Avatar’s Primary Class is Nohr Prince, an unlearnable class. Elise’s Primary Class is Rod Knight, and Rod Knight!Avatar’s Secondary Class is Rod Knight. Therefore, Elise would Marriage Seal into his Substitute Class-- unfortunately nothing as Rod Knight (M) has no Hoshidan parallel.

Takumi. Prince of Hoshido Wielder of the legendary Fuujin Bow. Prone to violent mood swings and desperately seeks to be the centre of attention. Although he appears mentally weak, he has a friendly side, which catches people off-guard. Has the worst dreams. [spoiler=Marriage/Buddy Seals] Spoiler (Marriage/Buddy Seals) A Marriage/Buddy seal allows a unit to reclass into one of the select class trees of his spouse (S support) or buddy (A+ support). A unit may only achieve an S support with units of the opposite gender (exc. Kamui, Syalla, Zero), and may only achieve an A+ support with units of the same gender. (The credit for the following information goes to Gayserbeam, as I copied the wording of his explanation. Check out the Class Changing and Inheritance Thread for more information. If the user’s Primary Class is different than their Spouse’s/Buddy’s Primary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouse’s/Buddy’s Primary Class, even if the user has that class as a Secondary Class already. If the user’s Primary Class is the same as their Spouse’s/Buddy’s Primary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouse’s/Buddy’s Secondary Class. If the user is married or buddied with a unit who has an unlearnable class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouse’s/Buddy’s Secondary Class. An unlearnable class is a class that may be unique to a character or their children. The following units have unlearnable classes: Nishiki (Fox Spirit), Flannel (Garou), Azura (Singer), Mozume (Villager). If the user is married or buddied with a unit who has an unlearnable class, and their Primary Class is the same as their Spouse’s/Buddy’s Secondary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouse’s/Buddy’s Substitute Class. A Substitute Class is simply a select class a character with an unlearnable class passes down under certain circumstances. The following units have Substitute Classes: Nishiki (Herb Merchant), Flannel (Outlaw), Azura (Rod Knight), Mozume (Herb Merchant). If you’re still confused, let me use Takumi as an example to try and clarify matters! Takumi/Hana: Takumi’s Primary Class is Bowman, and Hana’s is Samurai. Therefore, Takumi would Marriage Seal into Samurai. Takumi/Oboro: Takumi’s Primary Class is Bowman, and Oboro’s is Lance Fighter. Therefore, Takumi would Marriage Seal into Lance Fighter. As Takumi’s Secondary Class is Lance Fighter, he would not receive a new class tree from Oboro. Takumi/Setsuna: Takumi’s Primary Class is Bowman, and Setsuna’s is Bowman. Therefore, Takumi would Marriage Seal into Setsuna’s Secondary Class-- Ninja. Takumi/Azura: As Azura’s Primary Class is Singer, an unlearnable class, Takumi would Marriage Seal into her Secondary Class-- Pegasus Warrior. Takumi/Mozume: Mozume’s Primary Class is Villager, an unlearnable class. Takumi’s Primary Class is Bowman, and Mozume’s Secondary Class is Bowman. Therefore, Takumi would Marriage Seal into her Substitute Class-- Herb Merchant.

For the fifth week, we’re going to vote and dicuss on the best class for Charlotte, the surprisingly thoughtful warrior. I have seen people laud Charlotte’s characterization, so hopefully we can improve her value as a unit by selecting the best class for her! The format for this post is similar as that of the previous weeks: The following spoiler tags will mostly contain information regarding Charlotte. (The information regarding Marriage/Buddy Seals has been updated, as players have figured out more regarding their functions.) Certain information will be uploaded through the rest of the week. Feel free to look at what you need, and ignore what you don’t need. If you find mistakes within the information, please tell me so that I may correct it. Without further ado: Which is the best class for Charlotte? [spoiler=Marriage/Buddy Seals] Spoiler (Marriage/Buddy Seals) A Marriage/Buddy seal allows a unit to reclass into one of the select class trees of his spouse (S support) or buddy (A+ support). A unit may only achieve an S support with units of the opposite gender (exc. Kamui, Syalla, Zero), and may only achieve an A+ support with units of the same gender. (The credit for the following information goes to Gayserbeam, as I copied the wording of his explanation. Check out the Class Changing and Inheritance Thread for more information. If the user’s Primary Class is different than their Spouse’s/Buddy’s Primary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouse’s/Buddy’s Primary Class, even if the user has that class as a Secondary Class already. If the user’s Primary Class is the same as their Spouse’s/Buddy’s Primary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouse’s/Buddy’s Secondary Class. If the user is married or buddied with a unit who has an unlearnable class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouse’s/Buddy’s Secondary Class. An unlearnable class is a class that may be unique to a character or their children. The following units have unlearnable classes: Nishiki (Fox Spirit), Flannel (Garou), Azura (Singer), Mozume (Villager). If the user is married or buddied with a unit who has an unlearnable class, and their Primary Class is the same as their Spouse’s/Buddy’s Secondary Class, then the Marriage/Buddy Seal will reclass them to the Spouse’s/Buddy’s Substitute Class. A Substitute Class is simply a select class a character with an unlearnable class passes down under certain circumstances. The following units have Substitute Classes: Nishiki (Herb Merchant), Flannel (Outlaw), Azura (Rod Knight), Mozume (Herb Merchant). If you’re still confused, let me use Charlotte as an example to try and clarify matters! Charlotte/Saizou: Charlotte’s Primary Class is Fighter, and Saizou’s is Ninja. Therefore, Charlotte would Marriage Seal into Ninja. Charlotte/Jakob: Charlotte’s Primary Class is Fighter, and Jakob’s is Rod Knight. Therefore, Charlotte would Marriage Seal into Rod Knight. As Charlotte’s Secondary Class is Rod Knight, she would not receive a new class tree from Jakob. Charlotte/Arthur: Charlotte’s Primary Class is Fighter, and Arthur’s is Fighter. Therefore, Charlotte would Marriage Seal into Arthur’s Secondary Class-- Cavalier. Charlotte/Nishiki: As Nishiki’s Primary Class is Fox Spirit, an unlearnable class, Charlotte would Marriage Seal into his Secondary Class-- Spellcaster. Charlotte/Flannel: Flannel’s Primary Class is Garou, an unlearnable class. Charlotte’s Primary Class is Fighter, and Flannel’s Secondary Class is Fighter. Therefore, Charlotte would Marriage Seal into his Substitute Class-- Outlaw. [spoiler=Rules, Notices, & Clarifications] Spoiler (Rules, Notices, & Clarifications) Rules Please be respectful! This is a huge given, but I still see people break it all the time. Don’t be arrogant-- your opinion is important, but hardly the end-all-- and please don’t be a troll. I don’t want these polls to serve only for people who have played the game. Therefore, please be careful with spoilers. As we’re discussing classes, I’m assuming that most people are fine with gameplay spoilers. However, this does not guarantee that people are fine with story spoilers as well, so if you must bring them up, make sure to tag them as spoilers. If you’re tagging story spoilers, leave an explanation. Many people may assume that you simply tagged it as a spoiler because it was a long post, or because it was related to gameplay. Clarify what exactly you’re tagging-- it doesn’t take that many words. Notices In the optional poll, Takumi placed second, and Camilla and Elise placed third. As such, Takumi will receive three additional votes, and Camilla and Elise will each receive one. Ryoma received only one vote and Benoit received none. Therefore, the two were eliminated from this week’s optional poll. As it has been proven that the forum does not wish to discuss them at the current moment, they have a waiting period of two weeks before they will be re-entered into the optional poll. As the victor, Charlotte has also been removed from this week’s optional poll. Sakura has been re-entered into the optional poll. If it is demonstrated once again that the forum is not interested in her, she will have a waiting period of four weeks before she will be re-entered into the optional poll. Flannel has been added into the optional poll. Clarification If you’re confused as to what this post is all about, refer to the original post. Week Four polls concerned Leo, Week Three polls concerned Felicia, Week Two polls concerned Silas, and Week One polls concerned Azura. We are discussing the end class for Charlotte. You are free to consider reclassing options along the way (just make sure to factor in the cost of reclassing for the Practicality polls), but your vote should be based on your predicted end class. We’re excluding DLC classes from the polls to preserve balance. However (considering last week), a DLC poll has been added for those interested in them. A DLC poll will not be included for shared characters, as there is space for only five questions. Children will not be introduced until the localized game is released, or we have gone through all of the first-generation characters. We’re ignoring any class options the Avatar may give to Charlotte, as it introduces too many new variables. There will not be Practicality polls for the Invisible Kingdom campaign. I limited the Optimization/Practicality poll options to the promoted classes. [spoiler=Possible Classes] Spoiler (Possible Classes) Classes in black are ones Charlotte can achieve in either the Nohr or Invisible Kingdom campaign.
