Sothe becomes Assassin in Path of Radiance
33I made this video for a college course. I wanted to prove that bad characters could become good. My video of a Level 20 Assassin Sothe nearly winning the Endgame Chapter got messed up somehow, but this one of Sothe promoting worked.
This is not a fake. I used an Action Replay code to allow him to class change. Theoretically, the code I have also removes the class change restrictions on Ike and Volke. I haven't tried yet. If you look closely, Assassin Sothe is more black than Assassin Volke. I forgot to include Volke's picture in the video.
Disclaimer: I filmed this clip personally using the Nintendo game "Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance" I do not claim copyright of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance nor do I claim any copyright ownership of anything connected with said game. I have not and never will accept or offer money for this video. I will profit from it in no way. I did provide credit to the person who originally posted the code on another site. I also credit YouTube user goldiex39 with other information regarding the code (see below).
Enjoy
Info regarding the code. I won't take responsibility for any side effects this code may have. I'm still investigating it myself, but issues may occur that I don't find. Read everything below before using the code:
Action Replay Code:
D25X-UBF2-XCYX8
44W3-A5XC-Y1YX3
GNT0-95VF-PKNVF
This code came from Sandokhan of Gamefaqs.com
Read this information before you try the code:
This code removes the limit that prevents Sothe, Volke, and Ike from promoting. I am still playing a game using it to check for any obvious bugs. This video was filmed using save data from a different memory card. Because I knew nothing of possible side effects, I didn't save it. I am testing it using a different memory card. When I first used it on Sothe, it also automatically applied the effect to Volke and Ike. During Sothe's first battle, the screen went black before the animation, but switched to a screen that said the Game Disc couldn't be read. After turning off the game and removing the AR memory card, the game worked and Sothe has not had any trouble since then. The effect was already saved to all 3 characters so reusing AR was not necessary.
I just completed the chapter with Oliver as the boss (Ch 17). When the time came for Ike to class change, the dialogue had no issues. However, the class change animation never occurred with Elincia. I had to use a Master Seal on him at a base to make him class change. I think Bonus Exp may have still worked if he was not Level 20. Because he was level 20 before I used the code, the game had him locked out of Bonus Exp. Using the code before he reaches level 20 may work. I haven't tested it yet. I also don't know what effect it may have on Volke. I haven't reached that point in the story yet.
I found this code posted on a forum. I don't think it ever was checked by the makers of AR, so there could be other bugs. I would advise using a separate memory card when using this code if you have any concerns regarding any save data from any game on your memory card. Also, I communicated with goldiex39, a YouTube user and Fire Emblem hacker, regarding transferring the data to Radiant Dawn. She thought trying to transfer data with a class-changed Sothe might have negative side effects. I won't be trying it because I don't want to risk my PoR or RD data.
Go to this site and scroll down to the post by Sandokhan for the original source of the code with a list of other side effects. I haven't explored them yet.

He (or She) mentioned that any character with D-Level bows could use longbows. I tested with Astrid and she was able to equip it.
I also found that Marcia was able to use the ballistas in Chapter 19. It may work with other characters. I found that by accident.
Good Luck and please let me know if you find any bugs with this code. I will add them to the description and give you credit.
