Fire Emblem: Awakening

@Thunder I just noticed that Marth/Lucina is in your Sig. It's probably been there for like a month.
 
I got a question - is this one of the games where the demo sucks (like Monster Hunter). Because I downloaded the demo and I really didn't like it. But yet everyone seems to love the game. I know I'm different so I can dislike the game 'cause I have different tastes, but is the full game better than the demo?
I wouldn't mind giving it a try if people think the game get's better.

The demo kinda sucks... I haven't played the Monster Hunter demo, so I don't know what it's like compared to that.

Yeah, the demo was pretty boring. It's really just the first three chapters of the game I think, where all you do is learn how to play. Most people really enjoy the supports you form with the other characters, which is why many of us stuck around probably.

What don't you like about the demo?

In my opinion, unlike MH3 (which the demo was a poor representation of the game), FE:A's demo represents the rest of the game fairly well.

If you don't like the characters, you recruit more later (with some being more interesting than others), but if you don't like the turn-based strategy element, you're going to have a bad time.
 
Just asking, but what DLC should I get? I got the pack with the EXP grinding, gold grinding, and regal weapon grinding, but what ACTUAL stages should I get?
 
Well, if you want the best possible reward, I highly suggest the rogues & redeemers set. But a warning, it aint easy.....

I just ordered all available sets. :)

That's what I'm thinking about, but the difficulty scares me. XD

You can grind though, so grind hard to get the right skillset, then you can beat it. Still that takes a lot of time and effort. I had no problem putting the hours in, but I can imagine others might. I guess it depends on what you like to get mostly out of downloadable content? The best possible/a specific reward? The most fun quests? The biggest challenge? :)

I just want the fun ones, but rewards are nice. :) My character has max stats and I'm working on others now, so I might be able to take on the Rogues pack.
 
I ended up getting the Lost Bloodlines pack because of the dread scroll, but when I got Seliph, I noticed that he's REALLY cheap! He starts off with Galeforce and decent stats. I've also noticed that I've gotten a lot of Tacticians off of StreetPass and I don't know what to do with them. Any ideas?

I just looked and I only have 4. So not a whole lot. 3 girls and 1 guy. I know that I should have the girls get Galeforce, but what after that?

Kinda depends on how you want to use them? Those 4 are all tacticians? If you could be a little more clear I`ll start up my fire emblem and check what skills I gave my tactician(s). I only think my main character remained a tactician though.

I'm leaving myself and Morgan as Grandmasters. I think another Archer/Sniper would be a good choice for 1 because Virion is good, but having just 1 kinda sucks.
I accidentally killed Tharja so I can't get Noire.
Any ideas for the others?

http://askmorgan.tumblr.com/post/72511957753 thats so sad man wtf yeah i sacrificed myself int he end but morgan was prolly like..no..dont leave me..im srry bby

That was really good! When I got Morgan, I already knew the ending and I was shouting at Morgan "I only got you so you'll be sad when I leave at the end of the game!!!! I don't know why I did that.
 
Hmm, ok, so I checked my game and I only have one grandmaster, my personal character.

I`ll put the skills I use under a spoiler banner, to make sure no one accidently reads it.

MY skillset for my grandmaster is the following:
Lifetaker (50% HP restore when enemy is defeated)
Sol (Absorb HP equal to half damage dealt)
Pavise (Halve sword/lance/axe/beaststone/blight damage)
Aegis (Halce bow/tome/dragonstone damage)
Limit Breaker (unavailable for you since you miss that DLC content)
I guess you can use galeforce there?
I also like the Solidarity (+10 avoid/critical to all adjacent allies) and the pass (speaks for itself, pass through enemy lines) skills.

I only use the galeforce skills with flying units, so they can do hit and run strikes to enemies not reachable by ground.

I like this set, because it makes her strong enough when paired with her husband (my grandmaster is a woman) can function like a general. Block of weaker units. With this set you can also solo, paired with your husband) the 3rd quest of the DLC to get the Limit Breaker. Then you might want to use swordbreaker, cause they are the worst damage dealer to mages/grandmasters.

I BTW made Virion a dread warrior, because he has a fantastic magic stat. Because he is married to Cordelia, he has to be the frontman, flyers are to weak for me. Shame, cause he is a fantastic bowuser obviously. My Cordelia is now a Dark Knight though, some units are still gathering skills, she will definetly end up a flyer)

Lissa is my strongest flying unit, she is a Falcon Knight with this list:
Lote`s shield (DLXC content, protects against bonus damage)
Relief (+20% HP when no enemies are near)
Galeforce
Limitbreaker (duh)
Miracle (protect against lethal attacks)

Thats kinda it. Thanks to the paragon skill you can quickly grind, that helps, but I believe paragon is also DLC? I dunno....
