He was a close second behind Donnel and Severa, my first time through.

No, the Marth map is the the easiest map there is so it could help your really really pathetic characters level. But if you are playing on hard or lower you can just use Mist's spotpass instead.

Does things like tombfaire stack with capped stats? Also does pairing up add onto already capped stats?

I am a bit curious. I just rewatched the Giant Bomb Quick Look and they talked about Donnel. Does he ever become good?

Can't wait to get this tomorrow!

Bonuses from skills and Pair Up stack together, regardless of caps.

They're bonus stats (they add a + to the side), and pairing up does add up to the capped stats.

Yeah, Donnel can quickly become a very good unit. It's common to be surprised at his prowess.

He's good if you only plan to finish the main game. He really isn't good at all for later DLC because of his stat caps and skills.

Personally, I really liked Marth's map for grinding Olivia and her supports since unlike most spotpass teams, the boss will stay where she is and allow you to just dance forever. Tedious as hell though. Also, the villages give great items (yay free Brave Sword).

Speaking of Olivia, it's weird, usually I always have a dancer or its equivalent in my party in every FE, and I fully intended to keep Olivia at the beginning, but...it just felt more trouble than it was worth without grinding her unlike the other equivalent units I had used before. Anyone else felt the same?

Best three first gen characters for endgame are the Avatar/Chrom(Dual Attack + is amazing)/Cordelia(has by far the strongest class combination of first gen chars).

Galeforce/Pairing Up/Rescue staff just reduces her value a ton. She's a decent unit but grinding her is so boring.

My galeforce assassin olivia is so much fun. Access to bows and not being a sitting duck after using them is so good.

Oh sure, she has access to great classes, but in a no grinding run it just feels like such a chore tbh...

So what's the deal with the dlc?
I heard a rant that you get a extra location on the map that you can always visit which in the end means that you can grind (kind of game or at least the original conecept breaking). Is that true?
Is the dlc worth to spend money on / does ot add something really game adding?



Yeah and difficulty..
I was planing to play it on classic in the second run or should I go all in right away? :D

It is completely true. You can grind your life away with DLC, but that's only up to you if you want to do so. But then again, you don't need DLC to do that anyway.

As a fan of the whole series, I really enjoy the game's DLC for all the classic throwbacks to the older games. There's useful skills and classes that you can only get via DLC, as well as some interesting map scenarios, but in the grand scheme of things, none of it is major and you can play the game just fine without any of it. Ultimately, though, I think it all adds a lot of good value to the game.

Generally speaking, I think it is better to have them together, but after playing Lunatic, I can't say I'd throw a blanket statement saying one is completely better than the other. Sometimes you want those Pair Up bonuses, sometimes you want to have your guys fight independently.

Yeah, it is much like Fire Emblem 4.

Pair Up is generally better, but having characters next to each other allows you to rush through maps quicker.
Keeping units paired up increases your rate of survival though.
