@@xanderszunsol9963 Wrath and Resolve are both nerfed from FE9 (Wrath only activates at 30% health, Resolve activates at 50% yet only boosts skill and speed). Taking full advantage of that combo involves keeping Nephenee at really low health, which is risky and, if she's been trained well, doesn't happen all that often - you can get her the same amount of mileage just by forging her lances with max mt and crit or buying her some Killer Lances from Part 2. Nephenee without transfers is also mind-bogglingly bad, since she becomes too slow to double and too frail to effectively tank. She's probably your worst unit in Part 2 and just becomes overshadowed by monsters like Ike, Haar, Titania and Mia in Part 3. She can made good with heavy favoritism, but there's much less BEXP to go around on Maniac mode and it takes a lot more of it to level up (hence why bases do matter, since capping things quicker means you can patch up the weaker stuff sooner). Danved can at least use Astrid or Geoffrey's paragon to get himself up to speed quicker, which Neph can't do unless you wanna steal Paragon from the Dawn Brigade, which they need a lot more.

Yeah, a lot of the problems come from how Part 3 is structured. If Part 3 was mostly told from the Dawn Brigade instead of the Greil Mercenaries, those growth units like Laura and Edward would really get to shine because they would get the time they need for those growths to kick in. Here's my pitch to get more DB usage in part 3. Make 3-8 be about the DB pursue the GM through the caves (because obilgatory lava map) instead of Septimus. In the logic of the story, Begnion already views the Daein troops as disposable anyways. Micaiah can object at first and then Taurineo tells her that Pelleas has ordered to completely follow the Senate's orders. After the battle's done, she withdraws because the caves are too dangerous as it kills most of the Daein yellow units. 3-11 might need to be a DB chapter too, although that bridge will have to be lost by cutscene anyways. Maybe make it a hit-and-run timed chapter where the DB fight a scouting party instead of the main force.

The plot point that the Dawn Brigade is severely outnumbered against the Greil Mercenaries and the Laguz Alliance really hampers down Dawn Brigade so much.

If RD had sidequest/side chapters, several units lagging behind could be brought up to the forefront as viable units. If we had chapters about Tormod's group freeing Laguz slaves in Begnion after Part I, or Lucia fighting alongside the Crimean Knights to subdue the remaining forces trying to restart the rebellion, a bunch of characters could have had a chance to be more useful. But alas, such is the issue with the quantity over quality that RD's roster poses... But for crying out loud, they did Astrid so dirty in this game, both in gameplay and story!

Imagine Mangs and Mekkah doing a RD Tier list...

I said it before and I will say it again. Shinon is 4 star unit. Shinon is a 4 star unit. He is easily by far the strongest player turn non Royals unit in the game, with access to stupidly good bows and crossbows and longbows, and double bow makes him a killing machine more than anyone even with minimum training. The issue of not being able to counter in part 3, well just don't put him in front of everyone. Besides, crossbows allows him to counter in melee should you really desire, and he still hits quite a bit with it. Not attacking one or two units back is totally fine for how much raw power he provides to the party when it really matters. Shinon is fast, hits like a truck, has plenty of range option, and has incredible defense. And being part of Greil Mercenaries, he has great availability. And he already comes with high level and bases, you don't need to baby him. No way he is a 3 star unit.

So many missed opportunities to give characters more play time.

4 HOURS Oof So many units

Mekkah talking about Goldie's videos make me so nostalgic. Hard to find these days

On Medium I had Ilyana take on the black knight on the chapter in act 3 where Zihark comes back, and she crit and beat him. Zihark once capped every single stat except luck. He’s definitely my favorite Sword user in the Tellius games. I love him and Ilyana together. *edit* also Oliver was my main staff/light magic user and he was great. Flawless beauty always triumphs

Sacrifice doesn't reduce her HP by 10, it reduces her HP either until she's at 1 or until the ally reaches full HP.

By the way, don't know if you knew this (only at Fiona right now in the video), but Imbue works on Elincia, so basically she heals for A LOT every turn if you give Imbue to her.

I feel RD could've had 5 or so more chapters to counteract the availability for some of these units. It was actually difficult as a Tellius series lover to see strong, OP units like Lucia and Elincia used for 1 or 2 chapters then they go away for so long, or even how the Dawn Brigade falls off way too fast in part 3 because they're unused for so long.

Welp, there goes my afternoon

IS were doing some crazy drugs when they made the stat growths for this game. Volug has a 90% luck growth, Meg has a 65% speed growth, Nolan has the speed and skill growths of 60% and 70% respectively...at least it was nice to see Knights/Generals with decent speed and resistance stats/growths and fighters that don't get ridiculously low speed or skill bases and growths.

Instead of powerhouses like Ike and Sothe (early game) who can survive and ORKO when ganged up 20v1, archers will kill one mf and then get either overrun while dealing 0 dmg back or will force you to always attack behind an actual good unit

@andreescalona8902 Yes, but charecters like Ike and Sothe wont always kill enemys in one hit, so having the potential to have a melee fighter, a Mage and a archer, it looks cool and you feel like a stradegist.

Given how popular Mangs and Mekkah's unit reviews seem to be, I am honestly shocked that of all the Mangs & Mekkah hacks, the majority don't seem to lead into unit review cutscenes. Granted, they would probably have to be condensed and part of the thrill of playing certain units would likely be lost if Mangs and Mekkah in game just spell out "This sword locked, foot unit with bad bases isn't worth your time!" but then again, if Sacred Stones can have Easy mode only cutscenes, it would be interesting to see some hacks try the same with the unit reviews. Probably condensing them to summaries.

Fun fact, Laguz royals still get their weapon might when unshifted and gain a massive exp bonus when fighting that way. You can unshift Tibarn and he's still strong enough to kill a weakened unit for like 40 exp. It can be tricky to pull off and he doesn't really need it, but you can get him a couple quick levels that way.

On my first playthrough, Gatrie was the first unit I promoted to third tier.

I should know this cuz I beat this game but does this game not have a weapon triangle or is it just super inconsequential?

Reyson is at a higher level with access to more galdrs. he can fly and has greater movement than rafiel. I find it worth it to give reyson a laguz gem then hes only inactive for one turn then he can hit 4 units safer from further away. and does he have canto?

Jill is a top 5 unit in the game, she is in the best class in the game and has good stats and makes use of investment better than any unit in the game. You can promote her in part 1 and give her beastfoe to shred the laguz in part 3 and she just keeps snowballing. It’s plausible you got stat screwed but she’s probably as good as Ike on average. (And even better in part 4 and 5 game due to her massive mobility advantage) Edit: Granted Ike’s a lot better at base and Jill takes a bit to get rolling

@@theflashgordon193 (this is a tad late my b lol) Anyway investing in any character is fine since any unit can be made viable eventually with enough investment. If you’re talking about just wanting to use a character you want to anyone can be invested in and eventually become useful. In the Context of Radiant Dawn Jill’s class is just extremely strong with her having good speed, strength, durability and the best mobility in the game while also having the best weapon type. Giving her investment is good because she has good growths so it gets them rolling faster and she makes great use of it because her having the best mobility and weapon type lets her use the investment more effectively than anyone else. But personally I don’t like just investing solely in her but I usually like giving my flier(s) an angelic robe personally because it helps them get a lot more done and give them less limitations. I also like giving the early peg knight the 1st str stat booster because it helps their dmg output a lot. If it’s for fun invest in anyone but Jill uses it well because her class is inherently just better than everyone else’s. Edit: typo

Who else is watching this in quarantine

I don't have this game, but I read that leveling up with the extra experience at the base doesn't give you all the stats you get leveling up through fighting. So if you go up to 99 and not level up and get the last point in battle, do you get all the new stats?

@youri7229

imafreakinninja12 a normal level uses the growth rates, so a character can level everything, nothing or just a few stats based on the growths. Bonus Experience levels are usually considered “better” because they always give 3 stats, usually the ones with the highest growths. Also if you have stats capped (f.e. You have max skill) you can use bonus experience to level up your stats with lower growth rates because the game has 1 less stat to take into account when giving the 3 stats. Hopefully this makes it more clear haha

imafreakinninja12 1. Yup, it does! 2. Usually you use bonus exp when a character has capped atleast one stat so you can patch up another important one with a lower growth % (think of aran’s speed growth or meg’s strength growth), or you can just give characters xp with it, though on the harder difficulties this can be seen as “wasteful” as it uses a lot of BEXP, and you get a lot less than on easy and normal. *Side note: To give a laguz 1 exp with BEXP it costs 1,5x their level, this is a different formula from human characters*

Dark magic does actually beat all elemental magic in Radiant dawn. I had fun using Pelleas but he takes ages to get his speed to decent levels. He’s personally one of my favourite characters to use but yes he needs babying and is slow to begin with and frail for ages.

Do people not reset abuse bonus xp in path of radiance? Like I get not doing it for a legit run, but if the goal is transfers it seems like the move.

Unless you're boring and doing it for LTC reasons, generally it'd be kinda cheap to just inflate all the old characters when theres a bunch of new ones that dont get transfers. It kinda ruins the fun, so its nicer when transfers are just sprinkled around here and there instead

love this unit rating compilation and the others, I have watched them more than once. The one thing really bugs me in this one are the comments about the differences on the Rolf's Bows. While these bows share the same name the lore behind the two are different making them different weapons. The one in FE9 was made by Shinon to help Rolf master archery while the one in FE10 was made by Rolf. The FE10 bow being made by Rolf is also a nice attention to detail too since in his C-support with Shinon he gives Shinon his first attempt at making a bow (it sucked), in the B after having a lesson from Shinon his next attempt was an improvement but not by much and in the A though it doesn't focus on bow making does flesh out what Shinon's "choice" to teach Rolf archery meant to Rolf and how much that Rolf's Bow means to Rolf.

No lie, despite playing through Rd once (my first game... Not a good one to start off on lol) I didn't remember who Meg was when you mentioned her, but after starting a 2nd play through, it hit me, I remember her but I tried using her once and she died instantly, and I just thought " what can she actually do in this game? I don't feel like putting in the effort in keeping her alive, I'll just let her die and continue with zihark". Then I forgot about her entirely until my 2nd play through.

just beat radiant dawn yesterday! Can't wait to see how good my favorite character Meg is! oh... :( it is interesting seeing how people more familiar with the series see characters though, there's a lot of things I didn't know about like growth rates etc.

I just realized once again why PEMN is so important in reviews because in my current (first) Radiant Dawn Playthrough Micaiah maxed out her Defense in her Base Class and when I grinded Fiona up on the boss in her joining chapter she dodged constantly until she was Level 21 xD But I also gaved her as much Bonus Exp as possible and forged her a weapon with high hitrate before the chapter. (I know it's better to not do that, because only three stats can increase through that method but I only wanted to make her playable since I heard why she is bad and damn under normal circumstances she really is.) I didn't go further because I think she should be useful now. And that's all I want.

There's a strong argument for it. They're a scrappy band who had to claw through the more advanced Begnion Soldiers and did it thanks to a strong leader and some strong allies. It's very much told that they're characters who need to grow (especially Edward and Leonardo) but it's made clear in part 3 that the Greil Mercs way outclass them. Zihark, when defeated in 3-7, pretty much says "pack your bags, Miccy. They're going to stomp on us."
