Fire Emblem The Binding Blade Is Notorious For It's Low Hit Rates, But I Thought Of A Way To Make Them Much Worse. As for this Video, I Increased All Enemies (excluding recruitable enemies) Luck To 99. Giving All Enemies (Around) 99 Additional Avoid, 49 More Hit and Making It Pretty Much Impossible To Crit Them. The Avoid Boost Was The Hard Part, As In Just The First Chapter I Had A 0% Chance To Hit Most Enemies. Can You Beat FE6 If All Enemies Have 99 Luck? Today We Find Out!
- grinds Roy up to max level in Chapter 1 - Roy still dies fighting that chapter's boss classic Roy
There's nothing more jarring than seeing how awesome Marth and Roy are in smash brothers. Then turning on their original games LOL
@@DamienHanma marth is actually really good in fe1, he just sucks everywhere else no saving roy tho, he’s mediocre at best in fe6 normal and near useless on hard mode
Tbh Marth is also good in 3 and decent in 12. It's just 11 where he's really bad@@emperortoho
@@jolitero yeah def, 1 is just by far his best entry
People just don't give Roy enough credit when he's actually decent to good
Evil Morphs be like: we have a luck stat
Yeah, that would horrifying
I absolutely love that this run turns FE6’s horrible armor units into the MVPs of the run.
Many such challenges require the use of bulkier units, usually because they are needed to survive them. Armor Knights always have high defense, which isn't really necessary in a regular playthrough, but in challenge runs, they become invaluable.
@@KeitaroHirochi I mean, wile there are some runs that utilize armor knights for defense in the video we just watched the armor knights were a defensive liability in most chapters as they die easily and are very inflexible in positioning. It's not like armor knights have anything intrinsic that makes them good at taking hits, even in this video Alen and Markus were used far more reliably in order to choke points.
@@brennantmi5063 Bors's defense mattered a lot early on, but yes, the armors' lack of speed and the strength of enemies in FE6 killed their solo tank utility. What makes armors good in challenges is usually their high defense at base level, but here the guaranteed hits with triangle attacks were what really made them good in the middle and late game.
@@KeitaroHirochiAlso, triangle attack.
It delights me to learn that the armour knight triangle attacks has genuine value in this challenge
38:03 It was WHAT?!
first time playing one of the harder games and he does this insane challenge, dude is built different
I love how the shittiest items and units (slim weapons and armor knights) take crucial part in this challenge
I want to challenge myself to beat the game with crappy units and triangle attack was so useful
38:02 TF YOU MEAN FIRST TIME PLAYING THIS GAME?? ARE YOU INSANE?
I didn't even notice that what in the world is wrong with this madlad.
I thougt I was watching Excelblem in like the first chapter
The strategy is degenerate enough to be Excelblem, lmao. And I am completely for it.
at least rutger can have 4 crit on the enemie if you critmax!
...bro, you must literally be insane. I applaud you
Right off the bat, I was like “is this challenge even doable??” Major props dude
Fe6 Manic mode experience
You mean maso mode 😂😂😂
I somehow misread that as “Panic” mode.
I like how you could have made the much more reasonable choice to just max out their luck at the vanilla 30, but that wouldn't involve grinding every unit to level 20 on the first map so you did that instead. This is truly peak Fire Emblem
That first roy was legendary with 17 strength and then the next one...
I played Binding Blade a second time recently and got a 7 Strength Roy at level 20, i don’t the odds of that happening but its gotta be less then 1%
Certified Roy moment
No one would have thought less of you for using save states for this
Magic weapons use a durability in almost every game they’re in iirc; I like to imagine it as each time they use a spell they have to rip a page out of the book, so even if they miss they’re still running out of pages
Yeah, Boltings always ran out so that does make sense
I moreso imagine it as magic inherent to the book that can be used by the magic-capable classes- once its done, you can read the words, but there's no power to channel.
Fire emblem: the grinding blade
When people say that luck is the worst stat in FE, just show them this video
Imagine any other stat at 99 and tell me it would be an easier game. The only worse stat for that is res because it do jothing againist most of yoir characters, but even 99 skill would probably be impossible or require massive RNG manipulation.
@@noukan4299 Skill 198 Hit, and +49 Crit Chance. Anything that can touch you will probably kill you (it actually would make archers relevant, because they can attack from afar). Skill and Luck really are familiar actually, because it really badly hurts units if it's too low. Knoll or Gonzales are great examples. (Rutger gets away with low Luck by having perfect Speed and Skill, but most units appreciate the extra oomph it brings to the table)
Very few challenge runs actually make me go "holy crap, this is insane", but here we are.
This feels like something Excelblem would do.
Nah, too many survivors. 😂
They weren't kidding when they said luck "affects many things" were they?
5 minutes in and ur already at 11+ hours this is amazing
Idk whats more insane, your patience or the absurdity of the run. Absolutely amazing taste in music and video :)
38:10 I could be mistaken but I'm 95% sure that the entire map begins charging you on turn 25 if the boss is still alive.
It's a really neat, albeit annoying detail that ranged weapons get damaged every time you attack. It makes complete sense. Also, armor knight triangle attack is the best FE6 mechanic. You cannot convince me otherwise.
I think the weapon degradation on miss is only for magic, it doesn't apply to bows or javelins or hand axes. But it does apply to magic weapons like runesword.
Ngl, really expected Rutger to keep the 99 Luck lmao
That would be way too powerful. Low Luck is the only thing (barely) keeping Rutger on check
@shytendeakatamanoir9740 ik. I'm just saying, Rutger being as good as he is is due to Hard Mode, since he gets increases to his base stats as an enemy, and those increases carry over when you recruit him. Therefore, it makes sense in my eyes that Rutger would have 99 Luck as well.
@@ScootsLounge Not just Rutger, too. But it probably would make the challenge too easy, so I get why it didn't happen
@shytendeakatamanoir9740 ik it's not just Rutger, but he's a very prominent one. And I kinda figured he wouldn't, but still. Would've been fun, at least.
Tbf, hard mode bonusses for recruitables are a bug anyways. And it would be neat if someone figured out how to fix it.
The Octopath music has got me wanting to see these sorts of challenges done in Octopath haha Anyways, this is super awesome! Kudos to you for the amount of time you spend doing these challenges.
BARTH BROS
The dedication and patience (while at times... short) you had to finish this runs surely warrants a sub and a like from me. Kudos, good sir! This was a fun watch, but I can imagine how painful it is to try out for yourself.
Very impressive dedication- I'm sure this is the most the Armor triangle attack has ever been used. I wonder what other 99 stats would be possible and interesting? Skill, HP, and Resistance would maybe probably be possible? Although Res wouldn't matter much besides making Mages useless for anything but healing. And HP would also be just more like vanilla, but longer, although you might just run out of weapon uses at the beginning. So skill, then? It would be pretty rough, possibly worse, since enemies would have at least 50 crit, and always hit you. I was gonna suggest speed, but then I remembered that being doubled isn't the problem, it's the 198+ avoid.
No, being doubled would be bad too. I think Skill would be the most interesting, since it forces a very, very offensive playstyle to avoid ever getting hit
Max strength/magic would be possible, just really annoying If you know the rns for fe6 then you could just map out a run where you dodge every attack.
I love that general triangle attacks got sone use here. I love generals. Id be interested in seeing a few more of these. I imagine the strategies will be fairly different
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this run. I would also never do this myself. Good job!!
Here before this blows up... Please blow up because I cannot imagine the amount of effort this took 😭 props for not going insane
ideas like this is what this community needs. awesome job!
You sir, are insane. Great video!
OML you are insane, more runs like this pls!
so what I've learned from this video so far is that roy is a very powerful lord who is a great early game unit, and swordmaster is an op class. So enlightening! Can wait for the rest of the video
Great video! Nice to see a challenge like this is doable. Now, can you do something like this with Echoes?
Whoa! Hearing the Bravely Second soundtrack on a youtube video is a first! Thanks!
I'm less than 2 minutes in and the madman is grinding misses with Bors on an archer in the corner where the Money is Very Important! village is. Instant sub. Keep it up you madman
More FE6 stuff please! Great video!
this must have taken so long to edit!! extremely impressive video
Great music choice for the video!
This is one of the most insane challenge runs I’ve ever seen wow
Great run and I love all the Xenoblade 2 music you use.
Some very interesting strategies required but very fun to see the triangle attack trios running the show
Why do I find this so interesting XD also thanks for the vidya it was enjoyable
At 26:46 - That hidden “oof” sound was raigh not making it, is it? Congrats to beating this very lucky(for the enemies) run ^_^
This video taught me that I had no idea how important of a stat luck seems to be.
I can't believe you even attempted this without savestates. This looks like a special level of masochism
I think I would get rid of any game that managed to burn away 11 hours of progress. Major props for perservering through this insane challenge.
11 hours on the first stage... loses.. and then just nonchalantly re-does most of it, 'slightly tilted' when I'd expect most people to just give up. I've done some ridiculous challenges in the past and lost a few hours here and there, but I don't think I've had one of this magnitude - my hats off to you for pushing through that Now back to actually watching the rest of the video, this is going to be neat
You have a high insanity tolerance to do this
this is actually crazy for a 1st playthrough
I've been thinking about an all triangle attack run in fe6, which is what this turned into at the end. Very enjoyable, even if you did let lance die immediately
Just finished the video, it’s actually really funny to see Gwendolyn out of everyone was one of the MVPs 😂 Anyway I’d love to see a Radiant Dawn challenge run, either a Micaiah solo or every enemy with MAX luck
This is the funniest challenge ever 🤣 Do you know where I could get a rom hack for it?
There’s something so funny to me about watching the 3 armor knights gang up on enemies with their triangle attack when the animations are off
I love when challenge runs pull out the most obscure little mechanics... like armor triangle attacks.
Armor knight triangle attack run?! 😮
8:40 well it makes sense. Not like you can uncast a spell.
The Bravely Default music gives me life
awesome video fella
I wasnt expecting the octopath traveller ost 😂
17:11 That gunshot sound effect XD
I'm fairly new to the fire emblem series, only having played 2 games, but I've never even heard of a triangle attack before. Wonder if there's a bunch of other mechanics that I just have no idea about.
b-but luck is the worst stat y-you gotta believe me
Try and beat fe6 when all the enemies have 99 strength and actually get softlocked at the first chapter
this seems like a run in FE1 where you try to get clerics to max level, since they only level by surviving battle, leveling up by breaking enemy weapons with their face. It's also funny that the armor knights and pegasus knights would end up being some of the most reliable units because of triangle attack bypassing accuracy i saw some units that you didn't recruit like shin and sue, but didn't see them in the death pool like gonzalez and geese were. Did you not count them as killed?
43:45 “Niime is the best warp staff user in the game!”
"Just kind of tedious" is how i describe FE6 as a whole honestly.
my favorite game in the series
@InTheKitchenWristStirFry it's a good game but some maps are so annoying lmao
@@friendpelle sure i guess thats fair, i like annoying shit in games i feel better when beating them. I also hate easy games so FE6 fell into my lap just like that, which is funny cuz i love FE5 too for completely different reasons
It's hilarious how this run turned the armor knights into a surprisingly reliable living kill chamber with their triangle attacks lmao
This is so canon. Damn...
I still can't believe Bors was so speed blessed that he capped speed at lvl 10 promoted.
Nice video! What's the music at 36:51?
Imagine if there was a challenge where enemies had a 99 in strength, would be quite thrilling
I recently did a 0 Luck playthrough of FE10, and this is further confirmation that the Luck stat does, in fact, matter.
4:14 IS THAT BRAVELY SECOND MUSIC
If it’s not too much of a problem, could you provide a list of the music used in this video? Thanks in advance.
This shit is lowkey insane goddamn
What’s the music at the beginning of the video? It sounds super familiar?
Stickerbrush symphony (brawl edition)
@@Boarbatrice thanks
secret book wendy strats
What a painful reset after 11hours… and it hurts seeing Roy having 17str on first attempt and only 10 for the second one
Loses ELEVEN HOURS of progress and was slightly tilted. Who are you, Buddha???
Why Is Almost Everything In The Description Capitalized Also, Fantastic Video Yet Again Fren
Why do I feel like capitalizing every word is something N would do
Stickerbrush Symphony, especifically the Smash Bros Brawl arrange
Fire Emblem but what if all enemies have used Double Team times 6.
Poor Gonzales 😢
Radiant Dawn but all enemies have 99 Def Because its one of the pnly FE games i can think of where you start with a Mage in your initial party. Though feel free to do the same with any FE if you think it would be more fun.
12:55 This should be a Gift
me when every maps strategy is play for 5 hours to break every single enemies weapon
Gwendy supremacy
Cool challenge
Settle the argument on whether Strength or Speed is the best stat. Each of those will eventually get a 99 stat run, I assume?
What's the music at 17:30? Great video btw
"That Person's Name Is" from Bravely Default
when the armor knights turned out to be actually good 🤣
Having to use triangle attacks for guaranteed hits is great
Well it all depends on your units lucks stats
6:43 just realized this would be a no offensive magic run lol
luck is the best stat after all
When we gonna get that "All my Units have 0 Stats and All Enemies have +99 Stats" run?
8:00 but wait don't magic weapons in these games... 8:40 ...yeaaaaah.
