In today's episode we're discussing the Est archetype! This is another hotly debated archetype with many potential units throughout the series. But some fans believe this archetype may not exist at all, or that others have been too quick to call many characters Ests! Est was a Pegasus knight sister from the very first Fire Emblem game (Dark Dragon and the Sword of Light) who joined the player very late into the player's journey at a really low level, with the player even having recruited her sisters Catria and Palla and given the opportunity to use them quite way earlier on. This trend continued throughout the series, with Ests being units that join you very late in the game but typically have above average or even potentially great growth rates, providing a unique opportunity to give the player a unit with amazing potential... just a bit last minute. Without many chapters left in the game to use them in and with their horribly low starting levels and base stats, are they even worth it? And with their sort of duality with the Jagen archtype; who's objectively better, Jagens or Ests? Let's find out. Thanks for watching, guys! (۶•̀ᴗ•́)۶
