I usually let Aideen pass down the Bargain Ring since Lana cannot use the arena, though you can also try to pair her up with someone. So yeah, just abuse the hell out of Lester. Hero Bow alone should be plenty, I guess. Lana has Bargain Ring + Warp/Libro/Relive/Silence/Restore/Sleep. I had this vision that it'd be a good idea to get the Sleep staff for her while I could get it, because then if I need the cash, that's 15000G right there, which goes a far way with the Bargain Ring. As for Lester, Imma just have to deal. Quote: Not a fan of Lachesis x Azel. The mag difference is overrated, and they do much better damage with melee than magic weapons pretty much always. Nonetheless, nothing too crippling, you still have Pursuit and Charisma, the best things about these two. I suppose this is true, though I was banking more on Delmud weakening with the Thunder Sword than one-rounding everything. Nanna will rarely have to fight. Quote: Ayra x Lex is a given. Ayra x Dew might have been recommended for ranked, as it allows the kids to buy Elite Ring at half price while allowing Lex to go with someone else, but this will of course do. Any overkill gold Lakche may have can be carted to Johan/Johalva if you pair them up, so they can buy rings and suck slightly less. Oooh, Ayra x Dew. I never thought of that one. Now that you put it that way, I almost want to restart and give it a try. If I fail this run, then I'll try a third and final time and I'll definitely keep this in mind. Quote: Fury x Claude is fine, just promote Fee ASAP (I'd recommend giving her the Thief Sword as she gets to those 5000G brigands first) and staffspam the hell out of everything. Roger that. Though... I think Fee could have also benefitted from one-rounding everything that she needs to. Noish sounds very viable. Quote: Brigid x Holyn is standard. Lex is my personal favourite, but as I said, he does fine with Ayra, and this is another way to make Patty less of a headache. See, it's funny because I totally forgot to get Midir to talk to her, and when I did realize it, they were on two separate parts of chapter 4, but Holyn had been beside her just because of how they were standing. So I went with it. Thankfully, they fell in love - I was on my way to Reptor when it happened. Anyway, I took the Hero Sword from Ayra and gave it to Holyn at the end of first gen. I'm reading that Celice gets one from Patty, assuming it's the replacement sword, but I think this'll do Patty fine. Faval is Faval. Quote: Tiltyu x Levin is excellent if you manage to pull it off without losing turn tempo in gen 1, and it looks like you did it. Sylvia with subs = good. Why take mediocre stat boosts on two units that will never be fighting over godsends such as Charisma and Elite. Definitely. Quote: Eh, some other things. Remember you can heal and dance indoors. For example, in Ch9, you have a lot of idle time for all your people except the lucky few who take care of the advance on wherever Corple is imprisoned. So during that time you can do all sorts of creative things, such as getting a lot of people hurt in the arena, then healing it off with all your staff users for free exp, then dancing with Laylea to have them do it all over again. You can also have Patty use Give twice in this one turn. Thanks for mentioning it. I have made note of it and will do so when the time arises. Quote: Remember that people with Prayer have no reason ever to pass up an arena win. If they need to, get them beaten down to 1hp, while taking note of how much damage they take per attack. Then add so much health to them using castle/Life Ring/healers that they end up in a good Prayer after x attacks. For example, Fin has 40 hp, and something does 10 damage to him. Normally, he would only get 10% from Prayer after 3 attacks, so just let him "die", then heal him to 12hp, and enter the arena. The instant he gets hit he gains 110% avo. The Prayer Ring from Arion might be useful for this (though Prayer Ring + Elite Ring might be too expensive for most), and females can also use the Prayer Sword. See, stuff like this should've been a priority for me to look for. Deu's Bargain would be a godsend for me, but I neglected it. Prayer is such a good skill, too, but I neglected Finn. If I had put some more thought into it, I would have two children with Prayer (possibly Lachesis x Finn if not Beowulf) and two with Bargain. This would allow me to zone in on certain characters for the Elite/Prayer/Bargain rings, and a lot of them would be getting them for cheap. Plus they all, directly or indirectly, net me more wins in the arena. Considering what you've told me, I could've made this even better than I'm doing now. Edain x Midir because all that's needed is Pursuit and Edain's belongings. Ayra x Dew for next time, if there needs to be one, for what you told me earlier Lachesis x Beo/Finn, depending on the results of Azel!Delmud Sylvia x nobody, or Lex if he's free. Charisma or faster leveling... bohth are fine to me Fury x Noish so Fee can have the power needed to kill Mountain Thieves Brigid x Lex sounds like a very good idea to me. The sooner I can get Patty off of me, the better Tiltyu x Levin is win. I kinda wish I asked for advice before starting my runs. This would have already been put up. Quote: Same goes for people with Wrath to a lesser extent. Just repeatedly reset until that Forrest misses Tinny another time so she can return with Wrath. Use Magic Ring to widen her OHKO range. Best way to level those mages. Quote: Another abusable thing for the arena is Sleep Sword. Just try until the enemy is put to sleep. It works better with Ambush, but the only people you have with Ambush can't use it or don't need it. Well, except Hannibal, but he doesn't have a very hard time with arenas to begin with. Yet another reason to do Sylvia x Lex. There's even that elusive Arden, who seems to make a decent father actually... but alone he's just lolworthy. Thanks for all of this - you're really making me think better about what I should be doing. I'm currently at the beginning of chapter 7. I hope I can beat it this time.
