Snackoos = <3. It's science! Posts: 20,966 Group: Advisor Member #40 Joined: June 9, 2005	Kent is amazing through Lyn's mode and Serra is also good from being your only healer. Yayz. Serra joins in Chapter 12, but has to sit back and do nothing because the Pegasus Knights, Archer, and Mercenary wtfraep her terribly. So, she barely gets to heal, and can't really start building supports. She has to hide and camp a lot due to horrible durability. Durability is almost all WT control and HP/DEF early on since Evd is nowhere near reliable yet. Serra is being useful as your only healer, but she's forced to hide a lot, and then Priscilla joins in 14 and starts pwning because of her horse. Chapter 16 Kent: Level 10 Cavalier HP: 27.6 STR: 9.6 SKL: 10.5 SPD: 11.1 LUK: 3.8 DEF: 7.2 RES: 3.2 CON: 9 AID: 16 MOV: 7 Lances, Swords Serra can gain a couple of levels in Lyn's mode, and then a couple before Kent joins, so something like 8 is reasonable since has to heal for EXP and competes with Priscilla starting in 14. Serra: Level 8 Cleric HP: 20.5 MAG: 5.5 SKL: 7.1 SPD: 10.8 LUK: 10.2 DEF: 3.0 RES: 8.9 MOV: 5 Staves Uh, wow, she has basically no durability and has low mobility. She has less than Priscilla's base MAG until level 9/0, lol. Kent has a horse, good offense, and is durable. What else is there to say besides just explaining that stuff further? Kent's mobile, and is only less mobile than Marcus and Florina. Tactics is incredibly hard to get an S rank in, and Kent having a horse and solid offense and durability only makes that easier. Serra is helping Experience, and that's about it. She has terrible mobility, so she's not good in Chapter 17, while Priscilla is h4x. In Chapter 17x, she's likely to not even be fielded since space is so damn limited and Priscilla gets fielded first to gain levels and build supports with Guy and Erk. Then you go to Chapter 18, and then she's having those Pegasus Knight and Mercenary and Archer problems again. Enemies in this chapter swarm you and lots of them can fly, so it's hard to protect her, and her HP and DEF both suck terribly. In Chapter 19, there's Nomads everywhere, and even more Pegasus Knights again. So, her earlygame durability is abysmal. She struggles to live and has super slow supports, so her durability barely goes up. Oh, supports, lol... Kent has A Sain all the time easily. It's fast, easy, and neither of them wants anyone else as much as they want each other. Like Lance x Alan and Oscar x Kieran, it's a match made in Heaven. This gives him full Atk to make his offense moar h4x, and full Crit Evd to make up for his poor LUK. Everything else is given in half, but at least it's there. Then, he easily gets a B with Lyn. Now, I know you're going to argue about her sucking or something, and I'm prepared for that should you do it. She's forced upon you for many chapters, including the very final chapter, so not using her at all is a terrible idea. She also has many pluses. So, yeah, bring it. And if I have trouble with that, I'll take the later B Fiora at the very least, so ggnore. Serra's supports suck terribly. Sain could possibly happen, but it's 41/81/121 and Sain's mounted and off raping things with Kent, while Serra is hiding and getting left behind. So, she can get a B with Sain really late in the game or something. Lucius is possible, but he has Raven and Priscilla, and Lucius is often not even used since he's so bleh. It's also very slow. Hector isn't going to happen since it's super slow and he has A Eliwood/B Oswin before he probably gets just a C with Serra. Hey, Oswin will take her on playthroughs where Dorcas isn't used, you don't feel like promoting Matthew later, and Priscilla doesn't feel like getting him. Oh, wait, you need all of that to happen at the same time. Pity. Matthew has A Guy already, and having your healer follow your thief around makes no sense at all. He'll go for Oswin often if you plan on promoting him later, and is often not an awesome partner thanks to his very late promotion or not even promoting at all. Also, 76/156/236 ftl. Then Erk is even slower, and Erk wants Priscilla and Pent a lot more. Florina x Serra is probably the slowest support in the history of Fire Emblem; 81/161/241, lol. Serra's supports are both super slow and unlikely in the first place, so I dunno wtf she's supposed to do for supports. Later on, after Serra had time to promote and catch up with her h4xed up EXP gains... Kent: Level 10 Paladin HP: 45.8 STR: 18.2 SKL: 21.0 SPD: 20.5 LUK: 7.6 DEF: 14.0 RES: 9.0 CON: 11 AID: 14 MOV: 8 Lances, Swords, Axes A Sain/B Lyn: 5 Atk, 2 Def/Res, 12 Hit, 12 Evd, 12 Crit, 25 Crit Evd Serra: Level 10 Bishop HP: 34.0 MAG: 17.0 SKL: 15.4 SPD: 20.2(-1 from the lighest tome possible, lol) LUK: 22.8 DEF: 8.2 RES: 22.4 CON: 5 AID: 4 MOV: 6 Light, Staves lol i dunno Offense: Kent has significantly moar Atk. Probably moar than the Def-Res gaps of the enemies. With a General, for instance, it's 20 DEF to 10 RES, so double RES = DEF is reasonable as an estimate of enemy RES most of the time. Killer Axe!Kent has 34.2 Atk, while Shine!Serra has 23 Atk. If she has her best possible supports, which is like B Sain/B Oswin or something, she can get 2 Atk at most, and then have 25 Atk. She's still losing terribly. Against Generals, it's Hammer time! Mounted things get pwned by Halberds, Longswords, and Horseslayers. Against magic users, Kent rapes them horribly, while Serra can fail to kill them. His offense is way better. Defense: Kent has tons more HP and DEF and moar Evd against anything not using a bow, light magic, or dark magic. Serra has 60.8 Evd to Kent's 60.6 without the Lyn support. So, with just Sain, what I said is true. If he has Lyn near him, he's going to have more Evd against all enemies besides dark magic users. If Serra somehow got supports, what I said first is true. He always crushes her in HP and DEF, though. Utility: Serra has staves. Kent has a horse. Kent has mobility and rescuing utility to Serra's healing, so whatever. Kent is also much cooler than most nobs think he is. ggnore You can't compete with this team, so just give up.
