@Maelstrom It's certainly a long way away from my favourite ability as well but at least it does something, which is more than I can say for pass. By investing in it you pretty much guarantee that Cordelia is death on wings to anything red because nothing short of a sword armour will take those two hits, and they get hit four times instead. With the low might of the brave lance you won't be doing much per hit to green units even if you don't have triangle adept so I suppose it works on her better than most.
Overall though it really feels like if she had 1 more space of movement she'd be twice as good. 3 movement is always useful but on Cordelia it seems like it's what she was designed for. It'd let her:
- Reliably attack first, thus synergising with the brave lance.
- Pick and choose her targets, thus synergising with triangle adept.
- Get to ordinarily out of reach targets with pass.
- Do all 3 over again much more easily with galeforce.
Would that leave her too strong? Dunno, but she sure as hell wouldn't be as underwhelming as she currently is.

Mmm I've tried it but she wasn't that impressive using a steel lance either. What you essentially have then is a unit with good stats, an ordinary weapon, and some unremarkable skills (triangle adept and pass). The brave lance ultimately comes out a bit better because it stops her taking any damage when attacking, because you get both of your hits up front and triangle adept helps with its low power, but I don't see much reason to field Cordelia over Catria (killer lance, luna, armoured blow, seal attack) without bias.

Go to Arena duel, then go to check rewards. You can find out your rank and rewards their by changing the score type.
Yeah I know that, but like I said mine tells me I'm unranked. Given that the lower cutoff for rank is 100,000 I guess I'm just not in the top 100,000?

Unfortunately Cordelia isn't as good as you might expect in this game because brave weapons are pretty lame. She's great vs fast sword wielders but overall her average movement and inability to double without attacking leave her a bit disappointing. Brave weapons seem like a great deal on slower units, but kill fast units.

The game is likely to soon be updated with more story missions, paralogues and characters that are missing *COUGH IKE AND SIGURD COUGH*
oh, also on feathers, you get a large amount of them from your online ranking. For instance, as of rn I'm ranked 14,426 which guarantees me 1500 feathers, have 2760 offense which nets me 1400 more and 220 defense which nets me 400 feathers as well.
Sigurd? I can understand Ike but when has Sigurd ever been relevant to anyone who hasn't played Geanalogy? Don't get me wrong I love me some Sigurd but by the looks of what Nintendo's saying Seliph is a more likely bet. Then again neither of them have featured particularly highly in the choose your legends thing so I don't think we'll be seeing Genealogy for a while yet, more likely that they go through Tellius and Sacred Stones first imo, and more likely again that they go through Tellius and then develop the rosters from the games they've already visited. Much to my dismay though as I'd love to get my hands on Lewyn (though there's a good chance he'll be 5* exclusive).
How did you get your ranking? Mine tells me I'm unranked, is that just because I haven't made it into the minimum bracket or is there some other requirement?

Other gripes:
Inability to place your units on the map
Knights can only move one space. The battle is over before they even get halfway to it.
Adding to this flying units that move two spaces and brave weapons that practically don't have an off phase.
Anyway as you can probably tell from that combination I managed to summon Cordelia so now I'm sitting at:
4*s:
Cordelia
Jeorge
Eliwood
Tharja
Robin
Wrys
3*s:
Matthew
Barst
Niles
Honestly pretty damn impressive for a F2P. I've gotten really lucky with my rarity so far, and when my initial pull had both Cordelia and Jeorge (my favourite archer in the game currently) I couldn't believe my eyes. The main targets now would be Stahl, Azama, Kagero, Effie, Cecilia, and Sophia. Fortunately I'll be able to pick up half of those from the bonus quests if I haven't rolled them by then already.

Meanwhile I'm just over here still rerolling for Cordelia.

Gameplay will likely be the big seller for one's first time in Valentia though. For previous FE2 players it will be story that defines if it's Gaiden 2.0 or another Shadow Dragon.
Here's the problem as I see it. The biggest issue with Shadow Dragon is that it essentially was Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light 2.0. The upside of this is that it's faithful to the original, but the downside (and it's a BIG downside) is Fire Emblem as a franchise has evolved and been refined across the course of many games, making a return to the earlier games feel like the player is taking 15 steps backwards. With that in mind what I really want to see out of Echoes isn't Gaiden 2.0, but a game inspired by Gaiden, with all of the neat aspects that set it apart from other games, but a slew of other features from more modern Fire Emblem games as well, most prominently real character differentiation through support conversations. These people need personalities.
Shadow Dragon and its sequel needed to live up to the example of the preceding Tellius games, but instead we got a return to the very first Fire Emblem games and the result of this almost killed the franchise. This new Gaiden remake has an arguably even loftier bar to reach, that of Awakening and Fates, and I very much hope that Intelligent Systems has learned their lesson.

I dunno guys, I'd probably recommend FE7 out of all of them as the best one to start on. It's reasonably easy without being a cake walk and it has the best tutorial out of any of them ever. It also doesn't do anything extra like pair up, which you're then going to miss in installments that don't have it, it's just the basic formula with a great tutorial. What better start can you ask for?
For accessing all of the bonus chapters I'd just use this. Any chapter listed as "chapter numberx" (e.g. 7x) is a bonus chapter and the page of that chapter will tell you how to access it. Just keep an eye on where the bonus chapters come up with respect to where you currently are at. The wiki is also really handy for promotion items, but tbh Fire Emblem isn't a good game franchise to be a completionist on as it's very difficult and counter productive to try and raise each unit to promotion. I'm not even sure that it's possible, and you definitely won't get each unit to the level cap.

Echoes being on the 3DS is all I wanted. Now the game just needs to come out.
Yeah I was watching the direct like "Hunter's gonna love this".
Personally I also love this. After playing the rerelease of Gaiden I'll have played every FE game (or a remake of that game) in history outside of Thracia 776. I am planning on playing Thracia before Echoes comes out though because I absolutely loved Genealogy and I'm super keen to continue exploring the world of Jugdral. So basically before this news got dropped Gaiden was going to be the odd one out that I'd never played, and wasn't planning on playing, so this is absolutely perfect for me.

Enjoy the trip Ody, I hope you get a lot out of it. Maybe by the time you get back I'll have made some teams.

But Quetz is in all gachas as soon as you beat Babylonia. She's not limited, just story locked.

Does anyone have a link for the VN (Visual Novel)? Last time it was sold for pc was 2012 (Realta Nua) and i cannot locate it... I would also play the arcade game (this one was really nice), but MAME no longer supports emulation like in the old days.
I would die to play this but i can't find it anywhere... Anime bros, gamer bros, please help a fellow Otamegane (Otamegane = Otaku + Gamer, term found in "The world god only knows") get his fix?
Sorry fren no can do. It's against policy to provide links for stuff like that, but if you just search "Fate/Stay Night VN Installation Guide" into google I'm sure there's another very popular forum based website that can help you out more.

So who here is going to be in the raid/rolling for Merlin? I made it to the end of Babylonia so I'll give the Solomon raid my all, but my quartz are reserved for more important servants.

Dec 17: Favourite Mahoutsukai no Yoru character.
For obvious reasons (THERE'S NO DAMN ENGLISH TRANSLATION AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH) I haven't read Mahoutsukai no Yoru, though if there was a translation you can bet I would have. It sounds pretty cool and features some characters that I've always been interested in learning more about. There are a couple of characters in it that I have met in other works though so I can draw on my experience of them there to pick a favourite. With that in mind I'm going to go with Aozaki Touko because she's one of my favourite characters from Kara no Kyoukai. She's younger here than she is in KnK, and I'm sure that affects her personality to make her a very different character to the one that I know, but I'm sure she's still awesome.
-
Aaaand like 4 chapters into Babylonia and I've already gone back to best Cu. Sorry Proto but FSN Cu is the only dog for me.
-
Just about to go into Babylonia after frantically finishing Camelot, going nuts at the pair of Christmas events, and then turning around and doing a massive grinding session to strengthen my team and bring in some new blood. Here's what it's looking like nowadays:
In case you can't already tell it's a crit team that gets by through passive skill/CE based star generation (unless Tristan's on the field) while spamming NPs (thanks to the abundance of Arts cards), heals, and invincibility skills. The team is a blast to use, and performs really well with a lot of synergy between members. Usual suspects for that support slot are my alt account's Scathach, an Arjuna, a Saber Lancelot, or a Minamoto no Yorimitsu, depending on what I need for the specific mission.

December 15 Favorite Fate/Stay Night girl
Well since i haven't used her yet its Iliya...not really much to say i just like her she's always amusing oh and she dies eventually no matter the route so that's sad....
No, she survives in the Fate route iirc. Also, there's nothing saying you can't use a character more than once.

Alright, time to do some catchup.
Dec 13: Favourite Fate/Strange Fake character.
SpoilerAssassin, otherwise known as No Name Assassin, Beautiful Assassin, or just Zealot. She's a really cool assassin class servant who was once a candidate to become one of the Hassans, but was passed over in favour of Hundred Faced Hassan (seen in Fate/Zero). She's a natural genius who, in preparation for the naming of the next Hassan, mastered the Zabinayas of each of the 18 predecessors. That means as a servant she is able to use 18 out of the 19 different Zabinayas, including Cursed Arm Hassan's heart gouging Zabinaya, and even (I'd imagine) King Hassan's ability to kill the opponent's very concept. As they are all achieved through her own effort, some of these techniques are less powerful than the originals, while she has managed to take others past the point that their original master could. All in all a fantastic idea for a servant, and a very powerful assassin to be sure. I'm low key keen for her in Grand Order.
Dec 14: Favourite Fate/ spinoff.
SpoilerCarnival Phantasm. Technically this is more of a Type Moon spinoff than anything but because it has Fate in it I'll allow it. The show itself is too damn funny, not much else to say besides that. Well worth a watch from any fan of Fate/Stay Night.
Dec 15: Favourite Fate/Stay Night girl.
SpoilerSakura Matou. I dunno what it is specifically that I like about Sakura but I always end up feeling sorry for her in the Fate and Unlimited Blade Works routes because she gets shafted to one side in favour of other heroines after already spending over a year looking after Shirou. Ultimately she has a whole host of issues to work through in Heaven's Feel which I won't go into here, but it's well worth all of the effort and persistence that Shirou puts in for the ending that is achieved. She's just a really nice person who has some horrible things happen to her, and I don't understand why the majority of the fan base hates her guts.
Dec 16: Favourite Fate/Stay Night boy:
SpoilerLancer. Isn't that smirk enough? Or the Shinji punch? Nah in all seriousness though this fellow is just an all 'round amazing servant with great stats, skills, a broken noble phantasm, and the most brolike personality of anyone in Fate/Stay Night, and perhaps even the entirety of Type Moon. Every time this guy shows up on screen he steals the show, be it fighting Gilgamesh for a full day, coming to the aid of Shirou and Rin when they need it most, and both completely trashing Archer and point blank refusing to follow Kirei's orders in the process, or **Heaven's Feel spoilers**
Spoilersuccessfully fighting against the Angra Mainyu Grail Monster for a time before getting cheap shotted by Assassin from the shadows. Even then the grail monster deemed itself not powerful enough to corrupt Lancer at that point (having only absorbed Caster up until then) and absorbed him rather than attempting to enslave him. Well, at least that's my interpretation of events.
His character is awesome, his mythos is awesome, and honestly if I chose anyone else for this one you'd probably be wondering who this impostor on my account is.

Happy birthday Rose, really. You know better than anyone else how much your friendship means to me, and will continue to mean to me in the future. Not only are you a great conversationalist on the occasions that one of us decides to say hi, you're also an extremely valuable source of knowledge and advice. I hope you had a fantastic day, that your students weren't too much trouble, and that you didn't work too hard. Have a good rest for the next of the night and stay in touch yeah? Yeah.
P.S. You evolve into a Lilligant? Lilligant's low key my second favourite pokemon, what a coincidence.
-
Happy birthday, but don't worry about Jan 'cause you're not old. What you are is talented, and a cool person, and I still fondly remember chillin' with peeps like you in the Europe timezone on the server.
P.S. Your art is great.

Happy birthday Kyo, we don't talk much but you always make me chuckle. All the best mate.

Dec 12: Favourite Fate/Apocrypha character:
Jeanne d'Arc. Despite the fact that Semiramis and Achilles feature in my favourite servants of each class Jeanne is actually my favourite Apocrypha character. I really like her "never hold a grudge" personality and her design is the perfect blend of strength and purity. In lore revelations is a very powerful skill, and all in all I think if I were to ever actually summon a servant, Jeanne is the servant I would entrust my future to. She was also my first 5* servant in F/GO, and is currently at NP2 and still carrying my team.

Dec 11: Favourite Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya character.
This show is one of my weaker points in Type-Moon content, I've seen the first couple of seasons but that's about it. From what I've seen though my favourite character is undoubtedly Bazett, as her fight scene against basically the entire rest of the cast was pretty badass.

Level ups are fixed from the point that you summon them. The game already determines what you'll get on levels 2-40 so don't worry about how or where you level up.
