    Wish Assembly or Lure were mentioned in the video; very useful to shove enemies off of tiles that give them crazy avoid or defense, especially bosses.
    Edit: Also, just as some additional information to say that it's not universal, some bosses are immune to being moved from gambits if they have the 'Commander' ability, particularly late game bosses. Just something to keep in mind.

      Considering if you want to use Fliers you have to use Assembly, for the most part.
      Makes me wonder actually, if they add Dark Flier, they better add some Flier gambits that are a little better suited for them.

    My battalion story:
    I chickened into doing Normal difficulty for my first route (Blue Lions) on account of not having played FE since Radiant Dawn. I then proceeded to overzealously level my core units, anticipating some sort of abyssal gauntlet of death in the endgame.
    In the end, it was a slaughter. But just for curiosity's sake, I reloaded and used Stride and Dance of the Goddess to catapult a level 51, triple-spear-wielding Ingrid into the final room of the game on turn 1, avoid-tanking and nuking every gremory in sight, and basically snoring through the boss's health bars while the rest of my team sat back and had a tea party, I guess.

      Late game battalions are nice on Felix as he will get good bonuses including in mt that will equal or surpass lone wolf and gambits are almost a must. Thing is lone wolf is really great early on when 5 mt is a crazy amount of additional damage but since his authority is weak you kind of want a battalion on him to get skill levels faster even if he is not getting a lot of stars from them since teaching in class or through goals is going be slow.

      @@nickprice7716 Don't think of Lone Wolf that way. Think of it as a supplement for long fights. It is not irregular in Maddening Mode late game chapters for Battalion endurance to hit 0. If you give him Jeralt Mercs or anything early on, and teach him in authority, he will rich a C rank in authority pretty quickly, before the end of school days, and that gives him access to some awesome battalions with 8 MT and other bonuses that far outweigh Lone Wolf.

    I feel like the impact of Defensive Tactics is a bit overstated. Granted, I tend to mostly run B or up gambits for their higher stat buffs but even off their 100+ endurance, they rarely ever dip into the yellow, so making sure you keep them topped off before battle should make sure they'll rarely if ever run out mid battle. I only really see use in Defensive Tactics if you're actually going to incorporate the Battalion skills into your builds (and even then, I'd say only Wrath or maybe Renewal would actually be worth it since Vantage and Desperation are fairly reasonable to get the regular versions of)
    Also I feel the King of Lions Corps, while inferior to the Immortal Corps, deserved a spot. A massive +10 Attack and +15 Crit makes any War Master into a health bar shredding monsterkiller, its C rank means it's very accessible and even within the realm of possibility for Felix to obtain, its Gambit has some pretty decent (though not Fusillade or Ashes and Dust level) of AoE and the 5 Avo penalty is next to meaningless compared to how monstrous your offense becomes.
    I also highly encourage for anyone looking for battallions for their units (especially low-Cha ones less interested in offensive gambits anyways) to check up the max stat boost list. Some of them have a lot of hidden potential not obvious from their Lv1 stats, like the Edmund Troops from Marianne's paralogue giving a ridiculous +40 to Hit (and still a solid +5 to both sides of Attack) making sure your Bow Knight can hit reliably even at very long ranges.

    pretty much what i expected regarding the specific battalions. Jeralts mercenaries op, stride op, immortal corps op. My personal favorite is Macuil Evil Repelling Co on lythesia. Because of her mastery shes generally the first person to hit A rank authority, and it pretty much gives her spells 100% hit rate even on maddening, which made her nukes even more reliable.

    To be honest, games with subtly hidden mechanics such as these have an appeal. An air of intrigue, if you will. Always something to dig up and look over. It's damn satisfying to determine a new factor in the game play that you were otherwise unaware of before you fielded your units. And hey, that's okay with me. As for me? I'm just some guy on the internet whispering his pleasure in TH-cam threads.

    Claude got hit by a Gambit in the Holy Tomb chapter and was in range of the Flame Emperor.

  • @l.n.3372
    @l.n.3372 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Excellent video! Great editing as per usual, and equally informative.
    My favorite battalions to use (outside of the 3 lord battalions) are probably stride and retribution. The utility is unparalleled and it's amazing to have access to them early on.
    In terms of offensive battalion, I tend to prefer using 2 use gambits over single use gambits save for extremely high level magic gambits (which almost always have single usage). I'm talking about high level resonant lighting etc which provide high magic boost but only have a single use. A few gambits give both strength and magic boost so those are great for mixed attackers like Lorenz (funny enough but the Gloucester battalion actually gives great split boosts).
    The flying battalions with lure, assembly, and reversal are also great for bringing enemies closer to your team. Assault troop is excellent for its multi tile attack range; it can help to crack 2 adjacent monster tiles, so stacking assault troop is great for breaking barriers to get ore.

    If you've got a mage with issues hitting; the Macuil Evil Repelling co. is perfect with +30 hit they will be much more accurate.+7 magic is nothing to sneeze at either and +10 charm is immense for gambit accuracy. It's only issue is being A rank, so it may be troublesome to get on those without a strength in authority. It can be gotten at a reasonable time from the Oil and Water (Manuela + Hanneman paralouge).

  • @wesnohathas1993
    @wesnohathas1993 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I always give my low-Charm units support gambits because they can never hit the offensive ones. Hubert is a paradox; his Charm is bad, but his ability boosts gambit damage.
    It's also great to use Battalion Wrath/Vantage/Desperation/Renewal at every opportunity, but they have to be paired with Defensive Tactics and a relatively high endurance battalion to be reliable.

  • @davids2368

    Might be a case of Maddening getting easier before the end of pt 1 but I found Duscur gambit you get from Dedues paralogue to be great on Dimitri as he will take about 0-5 dmg from most enemies (haven't gone through pt 2 yet so I dunno how useful it is there). Like you said I can use Retribution on him and just send him in anywhere
