Can You Beat FE Engage With ONLY HP?

  • Fire Emblem Engage is usually a very easy game, so I made it hard by making every playable unit join with 0 in strength, magic, dex, speed, defense, resistance, luck, and Build. But this was still not enough, so I also had to ban myself from inheriting duel assist and duel assist+. Two skills that just made the latter half of the game significantly easier, so they had to go. With just these two restrictions, the game became almost impossible, almost every chapter required over 5 hours of time to beat. One chapter (chapter 3) even required me to get such good luck, I had to install a no randomness mod to make it feasible to beat in a reasonable amount of time.
    Yeah, so as you might expect this took to a very long time to beat, so if do enjoy, I'd really appreciate if you liked the video, subscribed, and shared with a friend.

    This was a crazy impressive run. Great job.
    Though, I was a little disappointed that Halberdier didn't make an appearance here. I figured this sort of run would be perfect for it, since 0 stat units can't double normally. I could imagine running a core strike team in the later maps comprised of:
    Halberdier with Eirika, inheriting Divine Pulse+ and Hold Out(with some number of +'s)
    Alear (Thief or Wolf Knight) with Lucina, inheriting Lunar Brace and Hold Out
    Seadall, inheriting Canter and Quality Time(+)
    Anyone with Byleth, inheriting Quality Time(+) and whatever
    Hortensia with Micaiah, inheriting whatever
    Anyone with Celica, inheriting whatever
    The core idea is the Celica holder Warp Ragnaroks in behind the boss to set up Pincer Attack, then you Warp or Rewarp in with the remaining units. Alear positions 2 tiles away from the boss, then attacks with a +hit engraved Short Knife+4 (for maximum hit rate), poisoning the boss and chipping via Lunar Brace. The Halberdier can now enter the tile directly in front of the boss and *quad* with a +40 hit-engraved Brave Lance+1, inflicting 30% of the target's Def (Eclipse Brace+), 5 flat damage (Blue Skies+), 3 flat damage (Alear passive), and 1 flat damage (poison) all as true damage, also triggering a dagger chain attack, which inflicts another stack of poison so the next attack does even more damage.
    Seadall and the Byleth holder give the Halberdier up to four attacks against the boss. Seadall can't trigger Quality Time *and* reposition for Goddess Dance at the same time, so a random Physic user can heal the Halberdier back into Hold Out range after the first attack, and Quality Time can heal them after the second and third attacks. Four rounds of 4x Brave Lance is enough to kill every boss in the game, including Sombron (with max poison stacks). I don't know if this is more consistent than just rigging 40% crits all day, but with the right supports, it probably is. I've also never tested whether Pincer Attack works against Sombron, so you might still need to rely on crits there.

    Your video idea is great and your ideas while editing were good, the video as a whole is cool. I think that you could have made it better by trying to pace it better and make more of your work though. I get that you were probably worried about video length, but for example in the first chapters it was kind of a surprise how many hours you said you spent over chapters that only lasted a few minutes without really commiting to any drama or nuanced storytelling. It was like you kept the same tone of voice, but the words you said sounded like you could have definitely have delivered it in a more intriguing way and the script was written with that in mind. I like your voice style (you kinda sound a bit like Dragoon) but I also think you're either talking too fast to get through your script, or there's just a lack of variance or emphasis? I don't want to like make an undue comparison, but if you watch a smallant challenge video for example, he tries to weave in a narrative to captivate the audience and you can hear it in how his tone fluctuates. I apologize if this is like patronizing, but I really respect the work you put in and think you could have gotten more out of your material. I hope the vid does well nonetheless

    Its funny how they use the "Lunar Brace" name and "Solar Brace" name to give Eirika/Ephraim Luna and Sol-like effects in FEH and Engage... yet they do absolutely nothing like that in Sacred Stones. If Eirika actually had a Luna effect she'd probably be far better of a unit in Sacred Stones. Its really strange in fact because they could have given Eirika and Ephraim class skills as well once promoted but they didn't (and class skills are usually given to classes with more limited weapon options in Sacred Stones).

      @@Syrahl696 Not every RNG sequence is possible in game, so a mod that forces perfect combat (crit and dodge whenever possible) always faces a potential issue of legitimacy. For example, in GBA FE you can never dodge a 99% displayed hit and then land a 1% hit with 1% crit. Not saying this must be the situation for the C3 clear here, but it is a real concern when the clear involves too many crits

    The way the run becomes easier as you progress says a lot about how unbalanced certain skills/weapons/items are. Astra storm and AOE warp are obvious but I've never liked how strong flame dragon vein and lunar brace are. Everyone knows emblems are busted too but imo engravings don't get enough flak for how they trivialize the hit, crit and avoid stats.
    Anyways for anyone who feels like they have already solved the game and want a fresh playthrough, I recommend a challenge run that bans emblems and any related game mechanic, but with mods that enable free reclassing and more deployment slots. This gives more incentive to have a varied army with tank and support classes instead of offense spam since hit and crit are hard to come by. Also the game becomes less alpha strikey and more of a long drawn out battle, the way a war game ought to be.

      Assuming you mean on an unmodified game, it sounds... doable, but the early game would be awful. This is basically a Framme-only run until you can reclass, and it also shuts down most engage attacks. Even Alear would have to reclass to be allowed to attack, since they don't get access to arts until they promote. If you can survive long enough to get Eirika, it becomes easy, as you just give everyone Lunar Brace and win the game.

Assuming you still allow chain guard (with your other allies unequipped), you can cheese Framme to lv20 as early as ch.4, which should make the rest of the early game possible, with or without DLC.

      Do some research with the Hit Rate Equations of Engage before you assume something. Hit Rates are not going to be THAT low like you assume they are.
      Weapon Accuracy: Hit + (Dexterity × 2) + (Luck / 2) + (Support bonus) + (Extra Skills Bonus)
      Avoid: (Speed × 2) + (Luck / 2) + (Terrain bonus × Class type bonus) + (Support bonus) + (Extra Skills bonus)
      This might be surprising to hear, but Engage Enemies are not built to be Avoid Tanks. They only factor in the stats of each unit separately, not the difference between them. A unit with Zero Stats still can have ~100 Hit alone to work with from the weapon they are using, which is more than enough to hit Enemies who have simple AI to rush if angered. It's called optimizing.
