    🎮 ABOUT THE GAME 🎮
    Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones is a tactical role-playing game developed by Intelligent Systems, and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Advance handheld video game console in 2004 for Japan and 2005 in the West. It is the eighth entry in the Fire Emblem series, the second to be released outside Japan, and the third and final title to be developed for the Game Boy Advance after The Binding Blade and its prequel Fire Emblem.
    Set in a separate continuity to earlier Fire Emblem titles, The Sacred Stones takes place on the fictional continent of Magvel, which is divided into five nations, each built around a magical stone said to be linked to the imprisonment of an ancient demon. When one of the five nations, the Grado Empire, invades its neighbors and begins destroying the stones, protagonists Eirika and Ephraim of the royal family of Renais set out to gather allies and halt Grado's conquest, while also trying to uncover the reasons for the war. The gameplay is similar to previous Fire Emblem games, focusing on turn-based, tactical movement of units across a grid-based battlefield. Core features of the game include permanent death for characters defeated in battle and support conversations that grant advantages to certain units in battle.

    I think adding weapons to the early game when needed is just as valid as swapping Eirika for whatever unit you're testing. Like at some point you either do this or the answer to the question is "No, I can't solo the game." The early game needs weapons as much as it needs the character itself so it's perfectly valid to just add them in.

      I actually added a Fort in the Prologue and changed the AI in Chapter 1 for most of the units that initially spawn to "do not move" (to make sure Amelia can get to Franz without have Franz aggro anything.), so it makes Amelia runs out of the prologue and CH1 less of an RNG fest.

      100% agree.
      I had a very similar thought process for my first Sacred Stones playthrough.
      I figured Bishop would be far more fitting of a promotion for Artur, but the contrast between the battle sprite's neat trim versus his bedhead in his portrait really bugged me, so I picked the class with the closer-matching hair and essentially used him like he was a cooler-looking Bishop lol.

    19:05 I can imagine the gorgons being so distracted by Artur just standing there that they die of stress or something.

    Gorgon B: Awesome, what’s he doing now?
    Gorgon A: He’s just standing there… Menacingly!
    Gorgon B: Oh god what do we do now?! *Gorgon A dies from fire tile*

  • @KiwiiPuma
    @KiwiiPuma Рік тому +67

    I think the Bishop class was the right call, simply because of Slayer. Sage would have taken more Turns because of the gorgons higher Res and without Slayer Purge would have done like 4 damage to the Demon King. Also S ranking gives you a +5 hit and +5 crit bonus on that weapon, adding that to the higher Crit chance on Light Tomes.

      Honestly? I think the buy rule would be perfect for a Myrrh run. Maybe make Dragon stones available at all shops(Or Armoury), but make them bit expensive.
      The other alternative as I mentioned would be to let her gain access to the monster weapons. (Claws, fangs and the like). Like maybe certain enemies will drop the enemy monster weapons after defeating them.
      With maybe whatever the weakest one(Which I think is the first stage dog monster's attack) given super early. That way you can save at least some Dragon stones for late game.

      I wouldn't say there's a unit shortage at all - pretty much any unit with an attack that's not limited-use or bows-only can complete this challenge (Eirika can, Knoll can, Colm... absolutely sucks at this but he can). It's really only healers, archers and Myrrh who can't without bending some rules (or incredible RNG abuse).
      More importantly, we haven't seen fliers yet, and they are the ones with the best opportunities to save time and turns - Franz came close and he was bogged down in the desert, fliers would save a lot there... and on chapters 7, 10, 20... And Pierce > anything with enough attempts, so it's not like they'd ever get stuck.

    Someone posted something about Lyon, and it's got me thinking...
    What if we posed an unpromoted run on any prepromoted unit? Where base stats are determined based on reverse average stat scaling. (while also subtracting promotion bonuses)
    Would probably destroy some of the prepromotes (particularly the secret characters) so going from 20 to 1 might be a bit much (maybe 10 would be the safe call here as most would probably promote at Lv10 anyways), but would present some interesting what-if scenarios (such as Syrene choosing to be a Wyvern Knight...)

    Adding magic tomes to the first armory in chapter 2 seems like a really good way to handle the issue of running out of magic uses before getting access to the prep shop armory
    Artur's growths-his speed growth isn't super high, but he does have good base speed, meaning he has a much easier time getting levels early on because of being able to double, and more likely than not getting enough speed levels to double most things
    Wow, that chapter 5 dodge sequence was incredibly lucky. Neat to see he was able to get the early guiding ring. Your lvl 20 unpromoted Artur turned out incredibly well
    Sage vs Bishop-honestly bishop wins hands down for me, even if Sage has better magic and speed caps. The Slayer skill is just that good, especially since the bulk of the late game is against monsters, and that x3 damage will be especially nice against nasty enemies like dracozombies. Add in most enemies having lower resistance than defense, and the lower magic cap isn't usually that big a deal overall
    21:11-the Ivaldi tome actually saved Artur here with its +5 defense, the cyclops would have killed him without that boost. Unfortunate about that deathgoyle getting a lucky hit though to finish him off...

    Alright here is a run no one will bring up but might as well say it. Myrrh run, given her strength beating the game is possible but seeing the speed in which she can would be cool. And while you can’t beat the game in one dragon stone maybe trying to beat the game in as few dragons stones as possible can be cool. Just a thought for ways it could be more interesting to see the fun of super high power units.

    Dude, I'm super jealous of that unpromoted Artur. I've been doing my first ironman run inspired by yours and my Artur has a measly 11 speed at level 14. I was sure he'd be awesome as he usually is (most of my Arturs end up like the one in the video), but now that the stakes are high this man is incapable of doubling enemies he normally should. At least he's still alive at the end of chapter 13 and he's good bait for Luna users, but the Guiding Ring is going to Natasha this time.
    I love that shop solution! I'm sure mages being able to restock there would be a thing in vanilla if we had Lute and Artur available that early. We can buy Flux a bit earlier than needed after all. Vanessa run next for our first flier challenge?

    Great Vid! Artur's definitely an amazing unit. One note, you could've probably cleared this way better if you hadn't used an elixer upon fighting Leon, you had enough HP to take one hit, and using the Elixer AFTER Leon would've hit you would've left with your 1 more use for the Demon King. Which would've saved you on that first attempt. So I dare say Artur's definitely Rank 1, for sure. Sure, you might argue Lute was slowed down by the moving around, but Artur would've been done WAY faster if you hadn't made the mistake there.
    Overall, I'd argue that Artur's definitely the best performance so far!

    Sage damage= 28+(18x2)-Res= 64-Res
    Bishop damage= 26+(12x3)-Res=62-Res.
    Honestly, it’s fairly close. But this does favor Sage slightly as this calculation considers Aura instead of Ivaldi. Aura has 5 less accuracy, weighs 2 more, and has less uses. BUT, Aura does have a slightly higher crit chance. Though you’re far more likely to double with Ivaldi due to the +5 speed and lower weight.

    • @VangolaGear
      @VangolaGear Рік тому

      Other things of note: most monster magic (and Lyon) is dark type, which has weapon triangle disadvantage against Light while having advantage against Anima. I
      Iirc staff accuracy also takes Res into account, which gives Bishop a higher advantage.
      Bishop also has advantage against most enemies as the game progresses due to Slayer, meaning basic enemies outside of bosses will actually be easier to deal with than Sage.

What do you think of maybe at some point(At least after you do Ephraim's run) where you do another run for Erika and Ephraim(as in a second solo run each of them) but with one small change. That being they have access to their class up item from the start? That way we can see how much better they would do if they could class up sooner then after chapter 16.

      That's a very neat idea, I think he would deserve it!

    My Artie actually ended up with really high defense, so I mainly used him as a healer/tank, and had moulder use the ivaldi tome.
    (Also, can we get a knoll solo run?)

      Dang the tank Artur, sounds like a fun run.
      (I'll get to Knoll eventually).

    Artur gotta be one of the best fe8 units.
    Also, Lyon and the Demon king cannot ever be hit by status staves, regardless of res

    I like the idea of having more Elixer for the Demon King but if you think it's unfair try this one. Have a ONE USE Elixer in the convoy and take THAT with you into the Demon King fight. Surely THAT would be fair enough no?

    • @kratosmvn_
      @kratosmvn_  10 місяців тому

      Yeah, that makes some sense for sure. But so far, we've always found a way to figure out, but I'll keep it in mind for the future.

    I was really disagreeing with your choice of going for Bishop over Sage, until you mentioned the Purge tome strat. Purge + Slayer really made the end boss so much easier it's not even funny.

    • @kratosmvn_
      @kratosmvn_  Рік тому +1

      Yep, I think that without Purge trivializing, the final boss Bishop would be a very bad choice overall.

    Is it not possible to go the Ephraim route at all? Could you not replace seth with the chosen solo character and then send 'seth' with Ephraim?
    Additionally fucking love these videos.

    • @kratosmvn_
      @kratosmvn_  Рік тому

      It is possible. It just requires a lot more tinkering on my end, but I won't do the test (at least yet) to simply keep a certain level of internal consistency.
      Thank you, I'm very glad you enjoy the videos 😊
