Quote: Stunting her already poor offense and durability = whoamg terrible idea. You want to make her look even worse vs. the bleh Innes than she already is? It probably works if you're not playing hard mode, I guess. I didn't mean to imply to promote her AT Ch6, just that it's available from that point always. I usually promote my units around Phantom Ship since that chapter is major gay and you can make nice use of the promotion bonuses there. 15/1 till ~15/3 Neimi is superior over her unpromoted counterpart (assuming 5 levels unpromoted for every 3 promoted ones - being on enemy phase + being better in general versus gaining a little more EXP per kill...I'd say it's fair). Then 15/6 vs 20/1 is more EXP for one, but better weapon level for the other, and it'll stay that way until she level caps...oh wait, she doesn't. 15/1 Ranger Neimi, A Colm, B Garcia 17.3 atk, 15.4 AS, 58.3 hit, 31.8 crit - - 58.8 avo, 26.7 hp, 9.1 def, 10.9 res Swords, Bows That's not :that: bad. Like, a random mid tier such as Joshua: 17/1 Swordmaster Joshua, A Natasha, B Arthur 16.2 atk, 19.6 AS, 68.3 hit, 36.3 crit - - 61.8 avo, 38.6 hp, 11.4 def, 7.4 res Swords More Atk, gives off better bonuses, actual 2-range to not take counters versus 4 AS, 5 Crt and a seizable durabilty lead. Wouldn't you say they're about even? Quote: She wants all the attack she can get from supports, not that it really helps her gain EXP much faster, being as mostly nonexistent as she is on enemy phase. My point was, Neimi has some of the best supports and speeds in the game. If she has trouble getting anything out of supports, everyone is. Quote: arthur vs lute stuff Too lazy to look at it accurately but I really doubt their difference is seizable. I might change my mind when I actually look at them. Quote: Pass. Neimi doesn't serve anywhere near as beneficial a function as essentially cloning one of your better units, and she isn't one of them herself unless you consider twentysomething in line out of thirtysomething among the better units. It’s a no-brainer who is the better Fire affinity unit between these two. I was merely parodying you whimping off L'Arachel's dumbness on enemy phase while emphasizing Neimi's. I'm aware Tethys is godly - I think she's God Tier in Eirika and High in Ephraim. Quote: His affinity balances some offensive and defensive boosts, but who wants to support him? Other low tiers like L'Arachel and Dozla, maybe - why should Colm or Tethys be forced to wait to indulge him as a B? - they're his quickest options. Anyways, his supports are building up very late and his partners are barely giving him any concrete offense, so the extra critical is wasted. They’re not going to make him a decent fighter or anything special at surviving. And where does Rennac get a window of opportunity to level up? His starting offense/durability prepromoted package is pretty laughable for when he joins, remember? I wouldn’t call it decent. That has...nothing to do with what I said?_? That's merely recruitment. You can do that with a base level L'Arachel, and not use her for anything else. At any rate, using her also means spending 5k on a promotion item, while Rennac is prepromoted. Quote: Big deal. Eirika can go digging, Lute can have outstanding mobility in the desert and find room to be of service besides that, etc. Rennac has 100% chance of finding them. Others have Luk%, which is 30%. That's gay, I'd have to reset until they find it or something. Lute is also better as a Mage Knight imo...it's arguable at least, and whenever she is a Mage Knight, 1-2 move ftw. Quote: Big deal. There are quite a few promoted enemies guarding Orson on either route, so Colm has ample time to visit both sides starting with the western before all of the throne area resistance is wiped out. Or Colm can come along when you're taking the east route and give support bonuses while Rennac does the other chests. ! Quote: Big deal. I’d much rather use Rennac’s slot on someone with actual supports who can be of help with the swarm of strong prepromoted enemies. Haha, are you kidding? You can bring half the entire cast to Last Hope. There's no excuse for not bringing an extra Rogue here. No need to waste Warp charges. Quote: Big deal. Practically adjacent to each other and someone who isn’t Rennac could even be equipped with a spare chest and door key to speed things up. Could, could, could. He does it without wasting those! Quote: I can just have my promoted Colm do that, or have someone like Lute penetrate the fog from considerable range. Rennac can kindly fuck off. I'd gladly settle for someone else with a torch who doesn't blow complete dick at fighting and surviving, really. Rennac's wildly inferior on those counts no matter what. Or those others go fighting while Rennac Torches and picks chests so you have more offense AND more sight overall. Sounds like a great deal. Anyway, I believe this was Rennac vs L'Arachel for the most part...I can't see Lute's ability to use Torch Staff help justify L'Arachel > Rennac. If anything, the opposite.
