Which units?

I know. You just said that Soren needed forged tomes, and I said he didn't.

And there you just agreed with me. Yay!

They both don't DA. Enemies with THAT little AS don't exist, except for Generals/Knights.

Getting doubled = 100% meaningless. The only units that can deal damage to Gatrie are Sages, Generals, and Warriors; all too slow to double Gatrie.


Laguz should be able to hurt Gatrie.

With Speedwings, Speed Bands or Knight Ward they get fast enough to begin thinking aboyt DAing the slower enemies. Without them, no, neither DAs, but if they’re not getting any speed helpers, I’m not using them in the first place.

Astrid > Boyd. Ilyana, no.


This is news to me.
Reikken: I'm halfway through reading it, but it's so bad; I can't finish.

Inui: You say Ilia holds more weight, but I don't, since Shin >>> Pegs and Sacae is more fun due to enemies that aren't fail and not having to move through forests all day.

SACAE. It's more fun than Ilia.

Soren isn't as good as he should be thanks to his garbage STR. He needs forged tomes and STR boosting bands to reach his full potential.

*Late*

Wtf @ Astrid being obsolete because Kieran and Oscar > her. Kieran and Oscar are better than most units in the game, does this mean they're all worthless too?

Astrid is by no means WTFHAXPWN, but she's a great character all the same, levelling issues aside. She belongs to an awesome class, and three paladins isn't overkill when they're this good.

I would say that Ilyana easily > Tormod. I'd put her even with Calil, though that's probbaly due to personal bias. >.< Tormod comes underlevelled late in the game, though, so Illyana will be better until the very end of the game simply due to a massive level lead.

Soren only needs 2 strength, which he gains after promotion.

And his higher speed still means he has more AS than Ilyana, even when weighted down by Elwind or Wind.

Soren doesn't need the bands.

To reach full potential =/= to be better than Ilyana.

He gets weighed down too easily and can't use any super strong tomes without killing his SPD.

He's still better than Ilyana even with his terrible STR, though.

How does his speed get totally killed?

Wind weighs 1. Elwind weighs 2. Those are the only tomes he needs.

Soren still does just fine with Elwind, so him having too little strength doesn't really hurt him.


And the only thing high level tomes are good for are the flashy animations.

Wind is terrible, though.

If he had good STR, he could use the powerful and MUCH better Thunder spells, thus reaching his full potential as a Sage.

lol @ Wind

Soren stills kills enemies just fine with the wind tomes, and he doesn't have much trouble using thunder too.

Soren does more with wind than Ilyana does with Thunder.

Wind may be terrible... on people other than Soren. Soren kicks ass with it. Wind is all he needs, and if you must. Give him an Elthunder during the endgame for those pesky dragons. By then he can hold it with little or no AS loss.

Yes, but if Soren could use Thunder without having his SPD cut, he'd be at his full potential as a Sage, and that's what I'm saying. Nothing else. :richie:

Like Nino or Lute with at least 6 CON for Thunder.

I know that, and by the endgame, he can do that.

Shit, I probably come off as rude, huh?
