What...IS SHE?!
Ok so I'm on chapter...something...I'm on one of the chapters, and the boss is a wyvern lord (upgraded from a wyvern rider) named...Vaida? Anyway she can't be that bad right? I mean I've taken on hard bosses before with my tankers and destroyed them.
Well, Hector decides to rush out and fight a knight (and successfully kills him), in the enemy phase...Vaida rushes to meet him.
No problem...
Wait did she just kill Hector? In one hit? Aw damn...
Okay so after some tweaking in the battle, I manage to get her to MISS Hector and have him, y'know, LIVE. Because she poses such a threat (and the fact that she flies she can go LONG distances) I have my pegasus knights rush to meet her.
I do 0 damage to her, with steel weapons.
Okay, send out Heath, my one wyvern rider.
He does crap.
Fine, I have two snipers with steel bows, they can take her down.
0, freaking...damage.
Hmm...I sense that Nils was correct when he said "DO NOT MEET THE BOSS! AVOID HER AT ALL COSTS!" So hey, I decided to restart the map (I did that twice...because I did not see the wyvern rider reinforcements coming in, and Lyn would get attacked three times by the riders) and check out her stats.
Well let's see...she wields a spear, so it doubles as a ranged attack as well as close-ranged. Her stats are pretty...well they aren't bad (speed could use some help).
Strength - 20
Skill - 19
Speed - 13
Luck - 0
Def - 21
Res - 6
But wait! There's some glowing green numbers next to those numbers!
Strength - 20 + 5
Skill - 19 + 4
Speed - 13 + 9
Luck - 0
Def - 21 + 4
Res - 6 + 14
Well...damn. I mean by the 4th turn I've cleared out practically all the enemies (remainders: two riders with bows, one mage who I CAN NOT kill because he's too close to Vaida, two wyvern bodyguards with Vaida and...oh wait yeah that's it). Well...I can't take her on! So basically I had to plan out my steps to knock out the two riders and taking as little damage as possible (go Matthew and his crazy dodging!) and...yeah that's it. Oh and I had my pegasus knights rush to the top to face off against the wyvern reinforcements. And I took out those two wyvern bodyguards on the last turn, y'know they just HAVE to rush to their doom!).
And for credit for a lot of this chapter, I have to thank Yuy-sama for providing me with the "mule" strategy, stuffing the characters I do not use with lots of items. Oh and it turns out I used the Earth seal on Fiora, I just HAD to get another upgraded pegasus knight. Sides...who else would use it? Raven? HA! I have Guy as my swordmaster!
Okay so here's my army breakdown.
- My fliers are my advanced force who can take out anything with a sword or a lance. They can also fly very far.
- I have Oswin the general to be the tank and take out anything if need be (though I don't use him that much).
- Matthew, the thief is for stealing and basically luring out anything that needs to be dodged. He also can dish out some damage with those two steel swords I gave him. Oh and he has lots of lockpicks!
- Lucius, Erk, Pent are my light warriors, who use magic from afar to dish out HUGE damage (also I picked up lots of Elfire and Shine books...WOOT!).
- Serra and Priscilla are my healers, and they have enough Mend staves for the rest of the game.
- Ninian the dancer can help my characters move twice.
- Eliwood, Hector, and Lyn are...well they suck. I guess I don't train them that much but since it turns out I need them VERY badly in the end I have to find another arena and SPAM IT LIKE CRAZY. Still, they can dish out the damage when they need to.
- Ah my snipers...Louise, Rebecca and Wil, yeah they can dish it out...badly too.
Well I checked out the next map (I'll play it tonight or tomorrow) and it looks like I have to kill a bishop...hmm...mage user...great. Lots of mages on the map actually, some wyvern riders, and one general who has a 14% chance of hitting Florina (one of my pegasus knights). HAHAHAHA! Oh and the general is using a lance, and I'm using a lance, so there's no advantage/disadvantage there.
Hmm...I should REALLY start giving swords to my peg. knights...
Well, Hector decides to rush out and fight a knight (and successfully kills him), in the enemy phase...Vaida rushes to meet him.
