Awakening never really delved into the whole subject wether or not Robin and Grima are the one and same "person". The most obvious answer would be that the future Robin was simply possessed by Grima. Many theories also say that he IS Grima which would also be pretty much supported by that comment, that he is in fact a fell dragon.

    • I swear Seliph's would've won if it weren't for Arden being the dad. 230 growth total when the average male growth total in 1 gen is 255 is pretty bad (265 if you do the most popular pairings and even the worst possible pairings you can do give average of 243, which is higher than the illegal Arden everyones dad growths). That is missing 25 for male and 12,5 for female. Since there are 12 children that inherit growths and each have on average 27 level ups to go, I did the math and it would mean that Seliph's army is missing in total 71 stats due to Arden, and that is not factoring in holyblood. Still that only adds to 3rd and 4th round. Pretty sure Arden also loses some base stats but no idea how many tho. If it's more than 30 Seliph's army would rise a spot on the 1st round which could lead to a win.

    • Jokes aside I actually like Tailtu x Lewyn and Claude x Erin (or w/e names they go by these days). TAiltu x Lewyn allows Tinni to use tornado and gives you Forseti on chapter 6 to a unit that will be mounted. The glaring weakness is lack of pursuit, but eh, never been that much trouble for me. Claude x Erin allow Fee to actually utilize staves and gives her access to physic after promotion. The sage class itself is so absurdly broken, that with Claude's growths, Ced will max every stat save strength and will still shred through anything with just lightning and is also an amazing staff user too. Forseti Ced is kind of just overkill imo, even though it's canon.

  • I understand the pairings would be a lot to account for regarding FE4, but at the same time almost all of them have a "mostly canonical" pairing that you can just plug and play. Lex/Ayra, Lewyn/Erinys, Beo-*sees your profile pic*-Finn/Lachesis, etc. and going without these make things a little weird. For example, Ced would have a pretty solid 60% strength growth and easily cap it out... but he can't ever USE the strength stat, whereas things like Forseti would impact unit value if accounted for (at least the stat boosts) and perhaps change some things. Pairings like Brigid you can give her Holyn to max out Febail's growths and make him an 80 hp GOD, but mostly from a practical analysis standpoint it takes away utility like +20 speed, an uber bow, and the ability to resurrect the dead from them. Doesn't matter too much, this video was clearly a lot of work already and if you want to you can always say "other games have infinite reclassing/enough levels so every unit can reach their caps" to invalidate any advantages FE4 gives its units. God help 5 skill base Edelgard trying to hit Forseti Ced though...

Imagine having the ability to guarantee incoming attacks miss every single time - spirit commands can enable that (particularly Alert and the ally-targetable version Foresee), and the international era of SRW (so V, X, T, and 30, the latter of which has a few especially monstrously strong units as well, one particular 7-pilot unit can practically solo even the intended-as-an--optional-challenge 10-wave stages within only one or two turns because it has stuff that absolutely shatters the action economy) allow spirit commands to be used on enemy phase. It is as broken as it sounds, with the only limiting factor being pilot SP.

This was just that first point but I definitely enjoyed what I saw lol. Probably the easiest and most definitive way to do this but i can tell it wasn’t easy.

    @caspianbchalphy@caspianbchalphy9 ай бұрын
    • Few things I want to add (mostly me rambling) I said “amount of units available” and not “deployment slots” since I assume in every game those that you don’t field but could are still helping out in the battle just in an offscreen part of the battlefield. In a head to head matchup I’d be thinking armies would use their full might so use their full roster. How good each army’s tactician(s) are is something difficult to prove. If you want to include player input do you count those casual players playing normally or do you go with LTC warp skipping and other shenanigans? Do you want to say that if a battle is more difficult and they get through it then that shows they are good tacticians? If that’s the case then how do you determine difficulty? Average from a limited group of players since you can’t get every fans response? Based on how the characters felt about that battle? Problem with that is I think if had battles that I thought were rather easy but after the battle they acted like it was a slog and may have been (or was close to being) a pyrrhic victory. Do we just use the stuff out of the player’s control and use the decisions made that got them to the battles. So the larger scale strategies as opposed to the smaller scale? I mean sure but there are still issues with that too. How do you determine what strategy is better than another? Someone could be great at larger scale strategies and troop movements but when it comes to a smaller scale they aren’t as good and vice versa. Lastly same problem as before but with the crests, bloodlines, and weapons+items. How do you determine which is stronger.

    • @DrewPicklesTheDark Almost all FE lords are blessed by gods. That to me is a nonfactor. I don't see 95% of the RD playable cast even touching Ares. Seliph's army has a way higher kill count, and I think House Friege and Velthomer have way better armies than Begnion or Crimea.

    • As a huge Genealogy enjoyer I would say the closest fight lore wise would be the RD armies. The scale in RD is equal to FE4 and they'd have absolute beasts like Caneghis, Nailiah, Tibarn, Kurthnaga and Ike himself. All in all I think it would come down to the highest level of fighters in duels on the battlefield, facing off against Ares, Altena, Ced, Shannan and Seliph too. I think you could interpret the 12 crusader weapons as "blessed", which would help them against the absolute chads like Black Knight, Lehran and Dheginsea. Especially if we're considering Julia with Naga tome for the fight! I still think Genealogy Gen 2 comes out on top in the end but RD's cast would probably give them the most trouble in the whole series

    • Relatively agree. Personally I would have removed the Church as you "technically" either don't play as them / they all have relatively pre-determined factions that they'd side with outside of the Church. And I'd argue it'd be the only time it'd be appropriate to include DLC as it literally just adds 1 character per faction. Anyway, if he was going to make it so each army was choosing only the strongest for their available deployment slots, it'd be appropriate to force include the characters that are originally in that faction

  • Is there a way to somehow standardize the stats between the armies in different games? Some sort of flat multiplier per game that wipes out the fact that some games just have way higher stats than other games? Maybe something along the lines of: 1. Calculate the combined stat caps of each individual lord to set a baseline (ie. Eliwood has 180, Ike has 300, or whatever the actual numbers are) 2. Give the lowest total lord a multiplier of 1, and give each other lord a multiplier of (the lowest lord's cap totals) / (the given lord's cap totals). Ie, Ike's army would have a multiplier of 180/300 = 0.6 3. Apply that multuplier to each army's numbers Not only would that address stat bloat in recent years, it would also address things like the str/mag split and the games that have weird stats like charm
