    Two clarifications on mistakes I made in this script: Chain attack damage is calculated using the enemy's HP, not your unit's, d'oh. Sorry. Wish more of this was outlined clearly in the base game. Doubles also won't be wielding bows, I forgot about the Mani Katti lock. Still, Etie doubles are great targets for enemies. Who's your go-to archer? How did Etie turn out in your runs?

      Honestly etie is kind of useless. She suffers from being an early game unit which means she will be trailing behind new units in levels and sp. Her base stats are atrocious she is slow, has pitiful defence and low hp. On maddening practically everything will one round her in the early game. She is useless against the bosses of ch 3,4,5,6 as she can't damage 3,4 due to them being armors and 5,6 have handaxes which one shot her on counter attack. Only thing she has going for her is flyer effectiveness but after chapter 3 there are about 2 flyers in chapter 4 who start near Louis and Chloe. Then there are no flyers in 5 and 6. In chapter 7 you get Alcryst who is leagues better.
      An early game unit who struggles in the early game in a game with unrestricted reclassing and good mid/late game recruitable units is destined to be terrible.
      She is worse than clanne as he at least damages armors early on.

      My go-to bow users are Allcrits and Fogadoboutit, with Lyn Emblem ring and Claude S Bond ring, respectively. The 4 range on Longbows made me give Fogado Draconic Hex, which solves SO many problems, especially with Wyrms.
      Claude Emblem ring on Diamant is also helpful for extra range on chain attacks and for taking out annoying fliers - and dragons, but sadly, the only non-fell dragons that exist are also fliers, or they're Fabrication Wyrms on like three paralogue maps.

      They are just different. In points of evasion parameters and personal skills, Alcryst is way better, I know. But Etie overpasses Alcryst in the most important physical stat: STR. With this stat Etie can destroy even tanks and big dragons in an easier way than Alcryst. He depends on Luna and with more DEF/RES stats he still is fragile so as like Etie.

      Im not sure where this issue stems from truth be told.
      Currently playing through engage again on hard mode since I never fully finished it, and etie never got one rounded even when she got attacked. Even then, I'm confused how she would get in a position where getting hit is a problem for your archer in the the first place.
      Overall I think the issue is probably more of user error, and not taking enemy speed into consideration. She's been a staple for my team thus far whenever fliers exist specifically

    Etie will end up better then the other archers in terms of strength
    Warrior patches up her build and speed so she can more reliably tank a single hit and also wield heavier weapons like steel bows and killer bows
    Best way to make use of her strength is of course the silver bow and the forged Killer bow with an engraving like Lyn or Erika to fix her hit rates
    Now compared to Panette ot Amber as warriors she is statistically a little worse but in reality they're only small wins. Etie in the long run will perform about the same.
    So I'd say Etie is a great and underrated unit by most people. You can't disregard the emblems as everyone competes with them. Lyn makes her an amazing unit, sigurd is one of the best emblems. Ect ect. I used Etie and never regretted it in the slightest

      Problem is how Alcryst can just surpass her with his personal at base even if she reaches level 10 and his higher sp can grant him strength +2 while Etie will likely only have 500 something before losing your first 6 emblems. Also Alcryst's Luna outdamages Etie and to even reach level 10 you have to give her exp rather than your other units. Competition with other units is what brings her down. Luckily the Lyn emblem can fix anyone(except for herself) so training her gives you the opportunity to start dealing heavy damage and doubling.

She also is unlikely to get an emblem but if she does it gets rough as SP gain is slow. I suppose the DLC is not something I have so if that speeds up SP than she is almost on par. Remember this assuming you give an emblem to her which isn't the worst idea but they are not infinite....but I suppose I forgot that Alcryst can't equip a bond ring on his joining chapter so she wins their at least.

    As a practitioner of Etie and using her for my first run, she can be solid if trained. Often has Speed issues and Build can be a big downside, but with Lyn Emblem and Build+ Skill inherit from Leif she can counteract that Speed issue well. And as a Sniper with the Killer Bow max forged and with crit engrave alongside the No Distraction skill Etie can become a Crit machine, with at least 50% Crit and sometimes 70% or more on high end.

    Honestly a lot of the Fe games have good early archers all the way back to the og game. Just set up your team to break the bosses weapon when possible. And go ham grinding the levels until they are max level or raised high enough to defend themselves. Gordin the sacred stones archer. Lyns archer all of them were beasts in my playthrough
    Normal playthrough if takumi came earlier I'd say he was the best especially with pirage shot but etie is one of the better ones I've used.

    With careful planning using Lyn, I turned my Etie into an avoid tank that 1 shot snipes enemy units from the other side of the map.

    I like Warrior Etie the most as her class of choice because it lets her actually show off the muscles she has! I believe in buff women supremacy.
    For those looking for a good build for her, my personal setup for her is as a Warrior with the Claude Bond Ring for Wind God to give her 4 range with Longbows, then inheriting Dual Assist from Lucina and Canter from Sigurd. She gets to freely snipe opponents out of range of their counterattacks, even Thunder mages, and then on top of that she can reposition in such a way where she can fulfill her niche as a Backup for multiple units over an absurdly wide area. The best part is that because Wind God relies on her HP being topped off, it actually has some really nice synergy with her personal skill, particularly against enemies who attack from 3 range such as Thunder Mages or Wyverns so she can counter with one of her more devastating bows (typically a Killer Bow or Silver Bow). Etie rules, I especially love using her with her fellow retainer Boucheron to always proc his personal skill for +2 damage.

    I still don't really see a case where she's better than alcryst or panette. Especially when you consider the variety of custom builds available to them.
    A crit build on alcryst is extremely easy considering his high dex, or running a brave weapon can considerably increase the chances of hitting Luna, almost past the point of luck reliance. Lunar brace is an option as well since he'll be doubling more reliably.
    Then there's panette:
    WAY higher base str, better growth, much better build, better bulk. Putting her in warrior and giving her Lyn is enough. No further investment required. Or you can just abandon speed entirely and commit to a brave weapon and she'll murder everything, but still have enough bulk to survive enemy phase.
    There's more more flexibility in how you build these two units effectively with much lower investment but better results, because their strengths vs weaknesses are overall more in their favor. "just don't let her get hit" isn't an argument in Etie's favor. Because it means she's only good off the backs of units that can protect her. For a combat unit, if you're only good as long as someone can support you, you're not that good.

I don't think Etie can do any of those things, at least without a lot of help.
      In my experience, the AI puts high priority into targeting Etie if she's vulnerable. That suggests to me she actually IS weak. That said, I'm fairly sure she's "viable" given an appropriate strategy. But for my style of play, she regrettably gets benched.

    Nice explanation on Etie though in Maddening trying to keep everyone out of range can be very difficult, especially when Alcryst joins and having her just straight up get one rounded by a chapter 4 flier is frustrating. Her strength growth is good but only slightly higher than Alcryst's to the point when his personal works it surprised Etie's damage output and his personal happens often. Not only that but Alcryst's Luna stacks with Lunar brace which happens as often as the slight extra damage she does making a difference. That said Alcryst is really good and for once the first archer isn't far off. I still don't quite know if she's that great but I forgot to look up her growths so this video helps with that.

      Her growth is 33% higher, and his base strength is slightly higher than her initial base growth. By the time you get Alcrest, if you've leveled Etie up at all, her strength will be substantially higher than his, especially on fixed growths you can be sure that Alcrest's strength will just never be competitive with Etie.

Etie will catch up but then Alcryst will have Luna which is better as it scales with the enemies defense and gets 2 chances with a brave bow. 4 times if he doubles. Point is Etie will have higher strength but do less damage on average when you reach very high dex levels, and Alcryst can take a hit while she can't most of the time.

    While I didn't use archers much in engage. I do wish they had pirage shot as mini bow was almost perfect at 1 range to combo with long bow but the mages and theives are just way better especially yunaka.
    I'm cool with each game having different strong units to really get into each class.
    Echoes fates archers are broken by how much range and safety they get especially takumi. Sacred stones I found lance and axe units the best. Awakening magic users best. Engage theives are the best class that isn't special. It really helps you get a better understanding of the game systems before and after.
    Archers I want to make full archer not turn them into another axe or sword user as that defeats the point of raising her at all as I want to make her a bow unit to use the bow and if only they bring 1 2 range weapons out more often early on I would have used archer a lot more.

    @Airy-Ribi Рік тому +1

    Very good video! Looking forward to more guides and build ideas! My issue with Etie is really her speed, and while her Str is high she requires a lot more investment compared to Alcryst or Fogado. Alcryst and especially Fogado can double without issue which means they'll probably do as much or more damage in 2 hits than Etie can in 1 hit, and in Alcryst's case he can proc Luna to do more than Etie while still doubling. It's also a very notable weakness that Etie is awful at using the Radiant Bow. Fogado's respectable base magic and growth combined with the insane 19 base mt of the Radiant Bow means that he can just hit on enemy resistance while still having enough str with the silver bow to kill mages, letting him deal with both high defense and high resistance enemies. Lyn ring is also a somewhat contested resource since other units like Ivy or Citrinne want it for speed, or even Alcryst to abuse Mulagir. I think you can make a good argument that Etie is the best Lyn ring user though because the innate +5 speed from Lyn with Mulagir's +5 speed basically fixes any problem she had and lets her abuse her high str to the fullest. IMO Alcryst is better than Etie without the Lyn ring, but Etie is better if you can spare it. Regardless bows are really good in this game because there are so many bulky or high speed fliers in this game.

      @Lucky Crit it works well enough, but I'm not great at positioning. With pincer attack, her speed hardly matters so you can dump a super heavy brave weapon and set up a quad attack. And with her str stat, it can be devastating.

  • @mythiel507
    @mythiel507 Рік тому

    My biggest argument for keeping Etie around in your roster as an archer is that she is not a great wielder of the Radiant Bow due to her poor Mag.
    Most enemies have low RES compared to DEF so the radiant bow for an archer has always been of more value to me. So I do take MAG in account for archers.. this is mostly the reason why I have always dropped etie in my Mad Runs and took Anna as my main sniper because of her sweet MAG growth. Good guide tho, I feel she is made for the warrior class instead of the Sniper !

  • @LadyViolet1
    @LadyViolet1 Рік тому +1

    I don't think Etie necessarily falls off; I just think there are better options. Weirdly enough I think Amber is Etie's biggest competitor. Given fixed growths Amber will have an extra 2 strength over Etie at base if they both reclass into warrior as fast as they can, and because of his *slightly* higher growth she just never catches up. He also has slightly more bulk too. She does get silver bows, but I've never needed anything beyond a steel bow +3 and a longbow. It's not like it's the end of the world though she'll preform about as well; it's like 2 less strength and a little less defense (Amber starts with 2 extra defense in warrior and a slightly better growth there too it seems).

    • @Shireikai
      @Shireikai Рік тому

      Etie's biggest competitor is panette. Panette will always be stronger, have higher bulk, and higher build, which gives her more flexibility than etie while allowing her to select all the same classes. Especially warrior. Panette destroys every other unit in performance on that class.

    • @SleepyBrady
      @SleepyBrady Рік тому

      Etie, Amber, and Panette scale great in the late game thanks to high strength. There is also an advantage that Etie can get a strength or energy drop earlier then everyone else later on. But thats if you wanna use it. You get one in Jean's chapter and in chapter 10 but amber is already there

    • @LadyViolet1
      @LadyViolet1 Рік тому

      @@Shireikai Panette is a unit I use without even thinking about it, because of how good she is. However she joins later at a time where master and second seals aren't nearly as competitive, so I don't think they're really at odds with one another. Amber and Etie are though so that's why I bring it up. I use Amber like a second Panette that I get earlier.

  • @ceresbane
    @ceresbane Рік тому

    In regards to her personal skill. Perhaps reclassing as the new enchanter might make it more viable. Yes enchanters tend to be fist users but if you put a dagger in her hand. She might just be a very useful unit. Plus her access to convoy gives her a large supply of items to use on herself.
    that said the growth on it aren't known yet. But if it has speed growth perhaps it has something useful to give.

I ultimately went with him through the rest of the game, and now I kinda wished I put a little more investment into Etie since I liked her supports with Alfred.

    I’ve finished three fixed growth maddening with Etie on Warrior and she is easily A tier for me because of how well she performed consistently throughout the game. To me, she is the best anti flyer in the game due to her consistent huh strength that allows her to consistently one shot flyer well into chapter 23-24. In this game, having a specialist that excel in one role very well is much better than an all rounder. Etie manage to do her niche extremely well and consistent throughout the game despite her setback is what made me prefer her from Alcryst which would require Luna and/or crit activation later down the line.
