Is it worth paying for the Bride/Dread Fighter classes?

Sully was one of my beasts. I would just throw her in the middle were all the enemies are and she would kill them all barely losing any health.
2 more strength than she would have as a Falcon Knight. (2 less than a hero, but Severa is my main hero) Can still use staffs along with a bow. Also, no need to waste a skill slot for Iote's Shield or Bowbreaker.
You started it first. Hmph.

I've found myself using Dread Fighter on quite a few characters, either for Aggressor or just to use the class in general for quick exp/stat gain.
Only used Bride to get Rally Heart.

Chapter 14 is insane on hard...
Anyway I promoted Lissa to war cleric:
I made Lissa a War Cleric and then a Sage. She was really weak as both.
Lissa is fucking annihilating shit as a dark flier right now lol. Arcfire for days + Speed for avoid. Don't get touched though.
Lissa should be pretty broken as a sage.
That's just another good...trait of hers

Her lv15 skill is great though.
Ayup, taguels the same with beast weakness.
Burning Justice

Yep, they do. Taguels are the same--they will always have the beast weakness no matter what class they are in.

Use Frederick to tank the hits. Get MC or chrom to finish them off if you can.
Usually I find that you have to kill the myrmidons and mages with Fred.
Hmm, well, just going to have to live with that. I got four Manaketes, even if Nowi is doing a tour of the classes to pick up skills at the moment, so yeah. Have to watch for this.

What dictates the skills transferred to the avatars child? I checked out the Morgan chapter and she only had Slow Burn from him with the rest being abilities from Cordelia. I want her to get Galeforce and Lifetaker, is that possible?
Yeah but that map has a guy with a hammer and Fred can't take that many hits in this mode. I'll try again tomorrow but I guess I should watch a video or something

They will get the last active skill from each parent, excluding DLC skills and Special Dance.

Just picked this up for my first ever handheld game along with OOT3D and my only reaction to it is:
You guys are all talking about stuff and I'm like, I like the guy on the horse (Freddrick) he kicks ass.

Oh that map. I thought you were talking about prologue.
You need to trade the MC's bronze sword to Frederick. He'll dodge the hammer with a sword most of the time.
The weapon triangle is a lot more important in lunatic.
Oh interesting. I wouldn't have thought of that >_<

Just be careful not to overuse Frederick. Great Knight is a promoted class which is why he is so strong, so basically assume he is level 21 to the rest of your units level 1 or 2. He'll end up eating all your experience causing your other units to be weaker than they should, and he'll eventually stop being so awesome, then you'll be kind of screwed.
This game has grinding to get around that, but if you play "correctly" you won't have to worry about that. All the FE games have a unit like him (well, Radiant Dawn is kind of weird in this regard) and it's probably really common for newcomers to fall into the trap of heavily using those guys.
On normal with Paragon, probably. On hard once you've capped your internal level even the level 30 Risen will only give 47 experience (94 with Paragon) to a level 1 promoted unit, and that slows down quickly. I'm finding Rogues and Redeemers 3 to be fantastic for experience while I grind for Limit Break manuals.

He is 20 levels over everyone else on your army (even though his level says 1) and like half of his damage comes from his weapon that will break after a while and you can't replace until really late in the game. (You can give him a shitty early game weapon with half the damage after it breaks)
Also, really first handheld game ever? You never got a handheld before? Why is that?
Try to get him to one of the forts, for extra defense and avoid. Abuse pair up with MU to get extra exp with the veteran skill.
Morgan would start off as a peg knight if Cordelia was the mother hence her having the two pegasus knight skills. You would need to have Galeforce as the last skill equipped for Cordelia and Lifetaker as the last skill equipped for the avatar to pass those 2.

Don't worry, even I said that about Frederick when I first picked the game up. Trust me, your knowledge of the game will get better as you play. This is my first Fire Emblem too.

The first 5 chapters are basically a multi-tier chess puzzle. Similar to Lunatic mode in New Mystery of the Emblem, you need to do inventory planning for chapters for optimal results.
In the Prologue, you want to give your avatar's bronze sword to Fred so he can abuse the weapon triangle against the hammer user in chapter 1. In chapter 1, you want to give Fred Sully's bronze lance and Virion's elixir so he can save his silver lance for chapters 3 and 4 and tank enemies in Chapter 2. If you know how the AI works in Fire Emblem, the first 5 chapters aren't actually too difficult in Lunatic mode.

Lunatic still kinda sucks though, because you really have to make sure that MC and chrom is at a high enough level to not get knocked out by one enemy attack. By then they're too overpowered and the rest are too weak to really matter from my experience.
I've really been thinking about the DLC packs and what they might mean for future game design releases... they're basically selling you cheat codes. And by god I crave it

Yeah, that's the problem with Lunatic mode. I'm not even sure if Lunatic is completable without crazy RNG luck and/or DLC. The enemies from the second chapter onwards are enough to double or one hit kill everyone in your army, I have no idea how you can finish the game without grinding.
I guess that's what you expect from Fire Emblem Lunatic mode. I remember the prologues in New Mystery being impossible unless you picked a Knight characters and got very specific strength and defence growths.

It sucks when you hit the ilevel cap, thats where maps with alot of enemies take priority.

Yeah I actually do find it super shady in a way. >_>
