True, Mia may be able to beat Soren in battle, but I like having someone who can attack and heal, go into the front lines without dying, and being able to reach long and short range freely with any magic weapon. I like having a few strong mages around, more than just Swordsmen, Axe users, and lancers. Quote: Quote: Rhys (who I also use quite often), Rhys has the same problems as Soren except that he gets ORKO'ed. Fail. Again, I like a few strong mages around... and he's a helpful staff user in the beginning and middle of part 3 Quote: Quote: Oscar (level him just a little and he's like Titania) Only in speed, but he has low concrete durability and his Atk is poor. Either way, if you still level him he's pretty darn good. Quote: Quote: When you get Zihark, your good allies are Sothe (since he starts out at a high level) Doesn't change the fact that he rocks. That has nothing to do with Zihark's strength... Quote: Why? Exp hogging doesn't exist. Thus, using tauroneo would be silly. Taur >>> Zihark upon joining anyway. For one thing, you can't use Tauroneo in about half of the chapters in Part 1 prior to when you get him, thus, you need someone else that's strong and can hold off and kill a pack of enemies without a problem. And also, in hard mode exp hogging does kinda exist. You can only get very few characters strong and they have to start out fairly strong to get anywhere. Quote: Quote: Black Knight (who only shares one battle with Zihark, but I never use the Black Knight in the Endgame of part one anyway Why would you NOT? You get Lehran from bringing him into endgame and he helps make teh arguably hardest chapter in the game easy. I can hardly say that the last chapter of the game is anywhere close to the hardest. Bring the Laguz kings and queens with you, plus who you got good throughout the game, and that chapter can be beaten in three or 4 turns if you really try. Remember that there's also no battle saves in Hard Mode, so I have to say that I don't have the guts to put Ike up against the BK and his Eclipse in part 3 where you have to fight him. If he uses Eclipse, you're done. Plus, Lehran doesn't make that chapter that much easier. Quote: Quote: Meg, Nolan, Laura, Ilyana, Edward, Leonardo, Jill, Aran Aran doesn't need saving. Neither does Zihark or Jill. The otehrs you shouldn't really be using. On Hard Mode, Aran doe shave a hard time making it through. He starts off at a crap level, and it's extremely difficult to bring him up. For Jill, I really hope you're kidding. Jill starts out as absolute crap and is probably one of the most annoying units to level up when your experience points are very limited. I barely even use her one Easy and Normal mode. Quote: Quote: and I may be missing more. The point is, Zihark is one of the only good units in Micaiah's army. You missed the Laguz emancipation army, whom are pwnage. You also forgot nailah. Whom is much, much better than Zihark. May I add that the Laguz emancipation army only shares 3 chapters with Micaiah's Army? And yes, Nailah is much better than Zihark, but also remember that she shares 2 chapters with Micaiah's army. You need good units other than those guys to get through part 1 and Micaiah's battles in Part 3. Quote: Quote: Now add Volug for Support with that. Once they get into an "A" support, they get a +45 avoid. Since I like Volug, as long as I keep them together, they never get hit. They both have pretty good Speed as it is, and with that bonus, I can't say no. Mia can't get that kind of support bonus. Volug >>> Zihark also. Mia CAN however, get an Atk bonus from anybody, which is quite nice as SM's generally have low Atk. Volug is probably the only useful unit in Micaiah's army that I can think of which can actually defend himself without a problem other than Zihark that stays with Micaiah's army until Ashera's judgment. Now those two teamed up are pwnage. Together, they can easily take on Mia and anyone that joins her for support. Very easily. Think about it, would you rather go into battle and be able to dodge almost any move and kill the opponent fairly quickly, or go in and get hit with some heavy blows, then kill your opponent with one or two strikes and die after getting hit too many times?
