Lol at his humongous HP advantage. That's kinda like a 5-6 DEF lead.

Hawkeye's DEF is teh hax.

<Quote Hawkeye the monster - or not>

Meh, I never said he was a monster, so I hope that wasn't directed at me. I was just saying that his offense is definitely not as bad as Jedi made it out to be.

I'd make Hawkeye a monster for his looks, though XD

HOLY SHIT. ._.;


Hawkeye is the greatest axe user ever. D:

No supports?

Pent, Louise, Ninian. All of these units should be fielded as far as I'm concerned.


Louise, I wouldn’t think so. The other two, yes, but simply being fielded isn’t the same as wanting to support Hawkeye.

Iunno about no supports, his supports with Pent and Louise are pretty decent.


Louise is bad, and Pent prefers to support with Erk or Canas before Hawkeye, due to Hawkeye’s garbage affinity.

And a C support with Ninian if you can be bothered =/


+0 Atk/Def and +2 Avo, FTW.

I dunno, CATS, what's your opinion on that?


So, first off, to even get to those stats:

He needs to support with both Louise and Pent, and both of those supports are making your team worse(by forcing you to use Louise in the first place, and by forcing Pent to pass on better options).

He also needs a Killer Weapon, a thing that is rare, expensive, and desired by every unit(and many units are much more effective it than Hawkeye).

Already not looking good. And then you look at the actual stats, and you’re even more disappointed. 50 Avo is still bad; and so long as you’re going to keep wheedling about his Def, compare to some other 20/15 units:

Bartre w/ A Canas: 20
Dorcas w/ A Oswin/B Geitz: 16
Eliwood w/ A Hector/B Ninian: 21
Harken w/ HHM Bonus: 18
Heath: 18
Kent w/ A Sain/B Lyn: 17
Legault w/ A Heath and HHM Bonus: 19.5
Pent w/ A Louise/B Hawkeye: 18
Raven w/ A Lucius/B Priscilla and HHM Bonus: 19
Sain w/ A Kent/B Serra: 17

Not all of these are exactly what you’d call god tier units, either. I have a hard time seeing this and then turning around and calling Hawkeye’s Def “h4x.” Of course, there are units like Guy, who is trailing your Hawkeye in Def by a full 5-6 points. And Lyn, who is behind by 4 points(assuming she supports Eliwood and Florina). But at the same time, Guy(w/ A Rath/B Priscilla) is beating Hawkeye in Avo by 47 points, and Lyn by 33. Loser: Hawkeye.

73 Crit is fairly impressive, but if you give other units the same treatment(Killer Weapon), it ceases to be anything special. Playing with other units on an even field, Hawkeye’s generally looking at a small lead in Crit vs a huge deficit in AS. Certainly a losing battle for Hawkeye; 14 Spd at 20/15 is nothing short of horrible, and even 73 Crit is not amazing if the unit with that Critrate is only hitting once.

SACAE. It's more fun than Ilia.

She ain't super good, but she gets the job done and isn't hard to use at any point in the game.

She gets to be near Pent the whole time. :tom:

(yeah, sue me for having Louise at the 20/15 stages of the game, I take the units that I like and aren't TOO shitty)...
B|

Edit: To be honest, I wouldn't take Erk if I had Pent too; you get Athos, and I prefer having someone to use each legendary weapon plus a few of my favourites.

Pent for Excalibur;
Lucius for Luce (XD);
Canas for Gespenst;
Hawkeye for Basilikos;
Louise for Reinfleche;
Raven for the Regal Blade;
Oswin for the Rex Hasta;

and then a couple of other characters.
