Rondie Plays Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn - 1:7: A Gathering Hope [1/3]
RECORDED ON JUNE 4th 2012
I am Rondie, and I have lung capacity.
This is a pretty straight forward Seize Throne map, with with weak NPCs added for flavor. The par time for this chapter is 10 turns, which is pretty impossible if you're trying to rescue all the prisoners. However, you get a nice dose of BEXP for getting them to escape, and I find it's more valuable to milk the enemies for battle EXP at this point.
At the end of the first Enemy Phase Tormod, Muarim, and Vika will enter the map as NPCs. Don't worry about them too much, but do try to have Sothe recruit them ASAP. Having Sothe talk to Tormod will also recruit Muarim and Vika.
Stat time! PoR bonuses are denoted after an *.
TORMOD
Level 5 Fire Sage (2nd Tier Beorc Unit)
Affinity: Fire
Skills: Shove, Celerity
Bond Supports: Muarim +10%
HP: 34 (50%)
STR: 13 (55%)
MAG: 17 (40%)
SKL: 16 (45%)
SPD: 20 (55%)
LCK: 14 (25%)
DEF: 12 (35%)
RES: 14 (45%)
Fire: A *A 1/2, Thunder: B, Wind: C.
NOTES:
Over-leveled in Part One. Absent until VERY late in the game, at which point he's severely UNDER-leveled. Otherwise a decent male Sage. Lovely character, sweet free skill. Strip it from him if you don't plan on training him, as it can be better utilized elsewhere.
MUARIM
Level 19 Tiger (Beast type Laguz)
Affinity: Thunder
Skills: Shove
Bond Supports: Tormod +10%
HP: 58 (60%)
STR: 18 (55%)
MAG: 3 (5%)
SKL: 14 (45%)
SPD: 11 (20%)
LCK: 12 (55%)
DEF: 15 (35%)
RES: 9 (30%)
Strike: A
NOTES:
Essentially the same problem as Tormod: bad availability and balancing. Also has the same problems as all Laguz: bad battle stamina. Otherwise he's a very good Tiger and an all-around sweet guy.
VIKA
Level 13 Raven (Bird type Laguz)
Affinity: Wind
Skills: Shove, Shriek, Canto
Bond Supports: N/A
HP: 38 (60%)
STR: 9 (25%)
MAG: 5 (50%)
SKL: 13 (60%)
SPD: 15 (60%)
LCK: 14 (65%)
DEF: 7 (15%)
RES: 7 (65%)
Strike: A
NOTES:
Again, availability and Laguz problems. HOWEVER: look at those stats! Look at those growths! Vika has the capability to be a real terror if you're willing to put in the effort. Also, the only female fighting bird, which makes me rather fond of her. If she had better availability, Vika would be the only non-royal, non-Heron Laguz I'd consider training.
