Also one tip from me: Don't be afraid to use your resources. Any resource you have, are meant to be used. Don't hoard your good items just for the sake of it and make use of them when they are, you know, useful. And permanent stat boosters are best used ASAP. And it is usually better to use a stat booster on a unit that has the corresponding stat in a very middling area, so the boost might push the stat above the optimal threshhold. Tl;dr Make use of your items when they seem useful and don't waste Speedwings on Dedue.
If you want to recruit students from other classes, ask for their assistance at the beginning of the month and do as many missions with them as you can, keep them next to Byleth the entire mission to raise support. On your exploration days, save and keep inviting them to tea parties. If they decline or you don't get a perfect tea party, restart. Use up all your activity points spamming tea parties. Throw in whatever gifts you think they'll like throughout the month too. Once your support is at B, you can talk to them and recruit them. It only takes about a month to recruit people this way.
Or, don't waste your valuable time on tea and just shower them with correct gifts. Lol. I have gotten three people in one month just using the right gifts and basically nothing else.
I would also argue to tell people that fishing is very lucrative. you can catch a number of fish that sell for 500 to 1000, and when you catch those fish, you make a lot of xp for your professor level. and there is not cap to leveling your professor level when fishing. just remember that if you fish, you do NOT have to catch the first one the bites your line. You are good to let up to 3 fish go before you risk losing your bait. The rarity of a fish is determined by the icon's colors, with Gold (in my opinion) being the best. as that gets you the most expensive fish. but purple is the rarest, and red gets you some pretty good fish, though they may not be worth the money you might have to spend on bait.
Best way to make money is to wait for mystery fish day, capture the goddess messenger fish, and use it to sell online through the relay function thing. Made like 20k in a couple of hours.
About getting all the chest: get ashe! His personal ability allows him to open ANY door or chest! He will be very useful for one chapter in particular! If you can get his friendship with byleth up to B or you train byleth up to his wanted stats you can recruit him if your not on the blue lions route One more thing! Crest are super useful! Everyone who started out with Noble instead of commoner have crest! There are many crest with many abilities to them. The main reason crest are amazing is that they allow the person with the crest to use a very power weapon for that crest! For example byleth can use edelgaurds weapon because they are the only commoner with a crest but they won’t get extra things with it if edelgaurd uses it. If a commoner uses one of these weapons however it will damage them every turn (besides byleth of course.) sadly not everyone with a crest has a special weapon. DO PROLOGUES TO GET THESE SPECIAL WEPONS AND RECRUIT OTHER PEOPLE FOR OTHER THINGS. Seriously you can get op stuff from prologues and the special weapons so make sure to start leveling up your byleth or leveling up their friendship.
@@Hung4086 I find it worth it, because you can sell the fish, and you are basically always gonna make back more than the cost of the bait, unless you just get crazy bad luck. It doesn't take Activity Points either, so it's free Professor Points on top of what you can build up with your Activities.
@@Joshdrew352 I've already finished my 1st playthrough and working on a different route now. I just followed some of the tips in this video. Made sure i plan what to do at the start of the month, When to explore and when to battle. And most importantly i plan ahead what classes will my characters evolve to. It saved me a lot of time.
Sorry to be so off topic but does anybody know of a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost my account password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.
@Thomas Benson I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Guys we dreams back in the old days when the hard book guide's would drop with the games like pokemon and what-not......I miss the good days...when u would sit in the game store just to look in the book and copy notes off the book
play the game and learn it by yourself.... i mean, online there are many resources that will help you but is also very rewarding to learn things by yourself
Great tips, thanks so much for the video. In regards to the Greenhouse, I can't remember where I heard about it, but if you plant the same types of seeds, you'll get a better yield. For example, flowers with flowers even if they're different colors, vegetables with vegetables even if they're from different regions. Spots for planting will increase with Professor Level, as well as the options for cultivating. As for the Thief class: It's a great class to invest in early on, especially on your speedier units like Petra, Felix, and Leonie. Having a Thief, along with a Monk who mastered their job and earned Draw Back, you'll be able to Steal a Dark Seal from the optional boss; you only get 3 chances to steal the Dark Seal from this particular character (number may depend on which route you're playing). Related: Ashe from Blue Lions has the Personal Ability Lockpick, which basically makes him a permanent Thief, as he can open doors and chests without needing keys.
Since this is flier emblem, I use the red area to mark the range of archers, only non-fliers and those with null flying will be stepping on those tiles.
I'm playing it on casual mode and several of my characters died at various points in missions. I'd be afraid to play this game in classic mode because I wouldn't want to lose any of the characters from my house. 😶
Yeah, this is my first FE game and I've had several characters die too even though all the veterans of the series are saying this is the easiest game. I think I'm still getting used to the tile system and figuring out enemies' strengths/weaknesses and how to take advantage of ranges (what OJ said about the red tiles was new information for me). Come to think of it, I've never played a tactical RPG before so that probably has a lot to do with it. It feels more like I'm playing chess sometimes. You have to think ahead very often. But I'm really digging it and I'm already thinking about my next playthrough XD
Thats what casual mode is for. Also Divine Pulse [ZL during player phase] lets you rewind to a previous phase, all the way back to the beginning of the fight. Dont let your best boys and waifus die :(
Way late but I just started playing this game as my first fire emblem game and have enjoyed what I've played so far (big fantasy nerd so don't know why it took me so long to be introduced to the series). Just wanted to say that I found this video to have some very helpful tips for me to start my playthrough, thank you!
Mastering classes for skills is good advice, but remember you can reclass back later and take advantage of higher growths early. It mainly comes down to if you care about min-maxing. But great vid OJ!
Surprised OJ forgot the greatest tip of them all GARDENING and FISHING does not take a activity point so use them to the best of your ability to lvl up prof lvl.
Fantastic video PE Ninja Master. Really good advice here guys. I have been doing alot of this but defo Replinish your Battalions before Battles, it's really cheap too do that aswell. I've not been getting all the Chest Boxes myself but I thief on the team is definitely valuable for sure. The Greenhouse I have been Harvesting but I didn't know anything about the Skill Seeds I was just doing the basic Harvesting lol but now I will take it more seriously.
When I realized I could grind battles indefinitely on a single day all the challenge of the social sim time management kinda went away. You still have to make sure no one dies, but you can outlevel everything as soon as you unlock the battle daily activity.
Battalions are busted, Farm every resource every time you explore and don't forget to train your own skills. I say this because I was so busy training everyone else up that I had barely realized my guy hasn't got anything outside of his starting skills of Swords and Authority.
You said something kind of confusing to me. You said we shouldnt reclass before learning all abilities a class can give you, but how do I know when a character is done learning new abilities?
The game tells you when you've mastered a class and learned it's mastery ability, but to check one way is to go to the classifications menus, hover over a class, and then use zr or zl to scroll to unit exp and it tell you how close you are to mastery.
Promotions Promote to a higher tier class as soon as you can, the growths they have are better, and easier to benefit from at lower levels. Weapons Using broken weapons are advisable since it allows for more attacks on a single enemy adding exp and proficiency for every extra time you need to attack an enemy. If you are missing too often, equip a battalion that increases hit.
Mastering classes, especially base, Is usually Just a waste of time, no one cares for +2 dex picking up an ability slot, and advanced class passives are usually crap, eg warlock=bowbreaker, lol
I was completely new to this game, and the biggest mistake I made was tunnel-visioning on professor-level. Without realizing it, character levels became a bottleneck for me, and then I got to a miniboss I really needed to beat, but I was way under-leveled
Battalions has the emphasis on ‘tal’ and only 1 ‘i’ sound. I really like your channel but that has been really bothering me. Also, magic is very variable with some characters getting way more magic and spells than others,
@@tsuki5985 I'm not, story is great so far but I haven't even finished my first route, there are difficulty spikes but they are manageable. I'm talking from personal experience of course so if others feel differently then that is totally fine.
Oprojo1 most fire emblem games are typically manageable until lunatic difficulty. Regardless, three houses still has it’s fair share of challenging maps, like chapter 19 of golden deer, Marianne’s paralouge, or the last chapter of black eagles run
The Story isn't too difficult really. Their is a slight jump in difficulty after the timeskip. The Prologues though. Those damn things are insanely hard. I only lost 3 times and they were all to bullshit in the Prologues such as the Petra Escort Prologue. All my guys were getting doubled by every enemy and only my Mages were landing hits in the forest.
Also one tip from me: Don't be afraid to use your resources. Any resource you have, are meant to be used. Don't hoard your good items just for the sake of it and make use of them when they are, you know, useful.

Tl;dr
Make use of your items when they seem useful and don't waste Speedwings on Dedue.
If you let your weapons run down to 0, you can upgrade them to their + variant. It's cheaper then repairing them and gives them 100% durability.
If you want to recruit students from other classes, ask for their assistance at the beginning of the month and do as many missions with them as you can, keep them next to Byleth the entire mission to raise support.

Once a month when exploring, ALWAYS buy bait and go fishing! It fills your professor experience per fish
HeyItsDingo exp gain too slow. I find fishing use up a lot of time

@@Hey-Its-Dingo and there are days where you can get up to 4 fish per bait. That's around 100 points per bait.
Just bought the game today.The game is quite overwhelming so thanks for the early tips.
How are you holding up? I just got the game 2 days ago and I’m extremely confused

The best part of the game is when you find the cheese of a map and beat a map in two turns
Definitely finish the sword-master class, Astra is one of the best skills in all Fire Emblem games.
Thats false
Also dont forget to three star the characters weakness, they become awesome like savant felix that can one shot magic attack
That's good to know. I just recruited him yesterday and I'm focusing on his sword and reason abilities.
Mastering classes for skills is good advice, but remember you can reclass back later and take advantage of higher growths early. It mainly comes down to if you care about min-maxing. But great vid OJ!
You mean after you unlock the saint statue and maxing out the renown?
I just got it and I can’t wait to get more into the game
I start every battle with that monk gambit that adds +5 more movement. You can make it nearly across to the end of the map if you have a flier/rider
Surprised OJ forgot the greatest tip of them all GARDENING and FISHING does not take a activity point so use them to the best of your ability to lvl up prof lvl.

When I realized I could grind battles indefinitely on a single day all the challenge of the social sim time management kinda went away. You still have to make sure no one dies, but you can outlevel everything as soon as you unlock the battle daily activity.
So is it betilian like reptilian
Or
Battalion like stallion?
Last one I didn't know ty
thanks for the video finally got to watching it ill try everything out

Been playing this for 3 years. Still cant finish it
Coming here after losing all my units in one of the missions 😭
Great video! Looks like I'm doing all the right stuff!
This a great video. Thanks
buh-till-yins

It was triggering me every time. But the video is pretty helpful. Its all about them battillions tho 😂
What is renown?
Also don’t let any your students get jumped
good stuff
Mastering classes, especially base, Is usually Just a waste of time, no one cares for +2 dex picking up an ability slot, and advanced class passives are usually crap, eg warlock=bowbreaker, lol
**laughs in Death Blow
Battillions??
You forgot the other tip use byleth since he is a god
Battalion... not battilion.
I thought i was the only one who was thinking that I had to keep scrolling through the comments to make sure
You are amazing
I was completely new to this game, and the biggest mistake I made was tunnel-visioning on professor-level.
Without realizing it, character levels became a bottleneck for me, and then I got to a miniboss I really needed to beat, but I was way under-leveled
I just auto everything and rest and seminar ever week lol I don't regret it 😁
Installing...
Thank you for making this video. I am not very far into the game, so I will definitely try to get a thief.
Battillions
I always play defensive in Fire Emblem that's just my play style

Battalions has the emphasis on ‘tal’ and only 1 ‘i’ sound. I really like your channel but that has been really bothering me.
Also, magic is very variable with some characters getting way more magic and spells than others,
