What are you trying to say

@@foxmarine4534 casual player with casual trick

@@luunam4722 There's a couple things I would call this demonstration, but casual and weak aren't among them.

@@atlas9162 Suit for u. I expect more challenge and this vid demonstration, not impress

You alright buddy? He literally states that the Dragon Vein makes no difference. Besides, care to elaborate on the “challenge” you’re looking for? Oh and most of the “OP children” you mention see like two rounds of combat on this clear (well, Percy and Velouria do, Shigure and Nina are rallybots). This is a demonstration about how Ophelia can solve one of the most controversial and difficult maps in Fates, let alone the whole series, I think it’s pretty logical that she would be the star of the show (and if you’ve watched Zoran’s other videos, you’ll know she can contribute in other maps).

I don’t know if I’d call it my favorite of the whole series, but I’ve always really liked Fates’ battle mechanics, difficulty curve, and more involved class system. It’s easily my favorite of the 3DS FEs.

Conquest is so good it makes up for the other 2/3rds being kinda mediocre lol

I still maintain that Fates' core mechanics (Reclassing, Skill acquisition Pair Up, Dual Strike/Guard systems ect.) are my favorites in the whole series. Each of the games have their own issues, but I still think their cores are pretty fantastic.

Conquest is the best Fates game by far.

@@andrewkos5560 Best in the whole series. I think they should have maintained fates mechanics throughout the series. I also do love the academy mechanics in 3H. Hopefully they combined both of it

Have fun!

What else is Shura good for lmao

Conquest is really straight up good. Glad this guys stuff is making you considering playing it again. By some miracle conquest is one of the best FE games in spite of the flaws surrounding fates as a whole

Witch does have more magic, but the passive Hit and Dodge bonuses from the Sorcerer class are more useful than you might think.

@@Zoran501 I see. A Witch would have had even more trouble with that sketchy hit rate at the beginning, I’d imagine. Guess I’ll stick to Sorcerer then. Thanks for the quick reply!

It’s a complicated topic. In Awakening, the things that mattered for pairings were pair-up stats and class/skill access on children. Fates adds the Friendship and Partner seals, which make it so that you don’t necessarily want to keep just one pairing for the whole game: sometimes you want a unit to get A+/S with one person for an important new class, then match with someone else, perhaps for a second new class or just for stats. The Attack Stance mechanic makes it so you don't necessarily pair your units up all the time. And there's no real postgame like Awakening's Apotheosis, so join times matter a lot to get the most out of your pairings. Here are some pairings that I like: - Arthur x Effie S for a good early Percy - Effie A+ with Mozu for access to Kinshi Knight & Quick Draw (which Percy can inherit, potentially) - Silas A+ with Kaze so he can become a Master Ninja with Sol access - Silas x Camilla S because the two of them work together really well in Attack Stance, they give each other useful class trees, and their daughter, Sophie, is very strong - Xander A+ with Laslow or S with Selena/Charlotte for Hero; unmounted Siegfried access is useful near endgame - Selena A+ with Beruka/Camilla so she gets the Wyvern class tree; you can finish the support chain in just four maps - Jakob x Azura S because Jakob!Shigure uniquely inherits Wyvern Rider; he can pick up Rally Spd/Def/Res fast, or he can be a great combat unit in his own right

@@Zoran501 awesome reply! Do you mind clarifying why unmounted Siegfried access (i.e. Hero for Xander) is useful in endgame?

Specifically in Chapter 26-Xander's one of the best units to break through the southern room that's filled with Berserkers and Generals, but many of the Generals have Beast Killers.

I arrive very late, but some very solid pairings are: Corrin: -Corrin x Jakob: gets one paring out of the way very early and can give Jakob access to good classes (namely, Wivern Rider). -Corrin x Felicia: same, but for magical classes. Not as good as Corrin x Jakob, tho. -Corrin x Silas: can be unlocked early and gives both of them access to good classes. -Corrin x Arthur: the best early pairing for physical Corrins. Jakob: Jakob x Corrin (see above). Jakob x Azura: good pairing if Corrin is male or already taken. Felica: Felicia x Corrin (see above). Felicia x Leo: benefits both of them; not the best pair-up for Leo, tho. Felicia x Niles:makes a good magical Nina. Felicia x Benny: both units really need the pair-up bonuses provided by their partner's class. Also, passing Tomebreaker down to Ignatius makes his recruitment chapter sooo much easier. The above are not that great overall, but Felicia is not a terribly good mother anyway. SIlas: Silas x Corrin (see above). Silas x Effie: solid pair up-bonuses, mediocre Sophie. Silas x Camilla/Beruka: gives good classes to both of them and makes a very good Sophie. Silas x Mozu: gives good classes to both of them and makes a very good Sophie. Arthur: Arthur x Corrin: see above. Arthur x Effie: makes a good Percy. Also, Effie loves Berserker. Arthur x Mozu: makes an even better Percy. Arthur x Camilla: gives good classes to both of them. Penalizes Percy. Odin: Odin x Elise. Niles: Niles x Azura: by far the best pair-up, as it gives you two perfects staff-bots for endgame. Also, Niles loves Kinshi Knight Azura: Azura x Jakob: see above. Azura x Niles: see above. Kaze: Kaze x Beruka: both of them benefit from the bonuses provided by their partner's class. Also, gives both of them access to good classes. KAze x Azura: this pair-up exists just to pass down Luck +4 to Midori and maximize her chances of obatining gold bars. Kaze x Camilla: gives both of them access to good classes. Laslow (not a great parent: anyone who doesn't screw Soleil's Hp and Speed, and gives Laslow an extra rally is good). If no such parent is available, a classic Laslow x Peri should do it. Benny (not a good parent and Ignatius is not a good kid. Usually Benny gets leftover moms, like Beruka or Selena). I would push for Benny x Felicia for the reasons stated above, tho. Keaton: Keaton x Camilla: gives Camilla excellent pair-up bonuses and access to hero, and makes an amazing Veluria. Leo: Leo x Nyx: gives Leo everything he needs (extra mag, movement and speed). Makes and excellent pair-up bot Forrest. Xander: Xander x Charlotte: best pair-up. Gives him strength, speed and access to Hero. Xander x Selena: second best pair-up. Gives him speed (and, potentially, resistance), and access to Hero.

It’s all in post.

Just build all six +Mag statues available in Conquest (requiring at least 50 kills each for 5 of them and 100 for Dwyer), then get a blessed Odin who earns three more magic than his average, marry him to Diviner/Mage Corrin, and feed him all five Spirit Dusts and the Dragon Herbs for +11 so that he hits 42. easy

In this case, Ophelia inherited Vantage from her dad, and she went Sorcerer 9-Master of Arms 11 (to clear out the two remaining skills in that line before L&D)-Onmyoji 15 (for Tomefaire)-Master of Arms 16 (for Life and Death)-Sorcerer. Instead of going to Onmyoji via Corrin marriage, it’s also possible for Ophelia to get Strong Riposte through Soleil friendship and eventually grab Trample, either through her mother or by marrying Percy. But Trample doesn’t work against the mounted enemies at the south end of this map, so keep that in mind. Because of the steep experience falloff on Lunatic, it’s not feasible to get Tomefaire & L&D until relatively late-around Chapter 23, if you’re just playing story missions. But the paralogues for the all-routes children have some very high-level enemies, so if you can do those, you can pick up the level-15 skills right after chapter 20 (when you can buy unlimited seals).

Zoran Awesome dude, thanks for the reply. When do you recommend reclassing Odin into Samurai and then Master of Arms? I’m currently on chapter 10, and I used both of my heart seals for wyvern Elise and archer Mozu.

Before chapter 14 is generally best so that you can get Ophelia before chapter 16. I have another HTTYO on that. If you want to save a few seals, then go for it in chapter 18 instead. Ophelia comes with an Offspring Seal after that, and if you want to keep using Odin, he doesn’t necessarily have to use up two of the five early Heart Seals if you go for Vantage that late.

+Mag/-Lck (and Mage talent, giving Diviner as a parallel class to Ophelia)

Fun fact: 20/20 Berserker Effie rams her cap of 43 Str on average, and 43 is the exact number she needs to one-round Takumi with the Brave Axe, Axefaire + Quick Draw (via Mozu) + Puissance stack, Rally Str, Fancy Footwork, Berserker Arthur support, and a tonic

I was wondering when someone would catch that! It's Fierce Mien, Benny's personal skill, which I put on Leo when I was messing around with hacked skills. I forgot to take it off before recording this.

@@Zoran501 oh, I see, thanks for the answer! Really enjoy yuor content :D

It *is* Benny's personal skill on Leo. I hacked some skills onto him to test some stuff and forgot to remove that. 😅

Movement is convenient. You can't cook meals for endgame; they wear off after chapter 27.

@@Zoran501 ah, right, of course

And they speaks when choosed. It is very different with the one I played

I’m using two great mods that do that-check the description :)

@@Zoran501 thanks. Like your voice.

@@Zoran501 confused about using paragon to install selectvoice mod. What are Rom path and project path

ROM path is the romfs file dumped from your game (you can dump RomFS with Citra by right-clicking the game there). Project path is the location you want Paragon to save your mod files to
