EPTBlack Eagle -> Edelgard locks her off (with Black Eagle -> Church only being able to recruit her late in Part 1). You get some awesome dialogue with Shamir attacking her, though.

Guess I spoiled myself lol. | ||

Catherine was my first recruit... she joined me for basically free, despite me focusing on some students to recruit... but I'm Golden Deer. | ||

Also shoutout to Felix and Lysithea, at least from my run 🤷 The thing with catherine is she's still as good as the rest of your team even if she's 10 levels lower...which also makes leveling her up super quick...she's pretty nutty | ||

Does it increase your skill experience when you train with them? Anything else? S support cg images because fe is nothing if not a waifu sim... | ||

On each route I have been trying to find other characters to use to see how they do. Some perform spectacularly, others don't. But that's okay for casual play through, is that you can make almost any team work that you like to play with. If Petra is more appealing for you to play with as a character, use her. I am definitely going to try to at least use all the characters in the game by the time I finish all the routes. | ||

I am definitely going to try to at least use all the characters in the game by the time I finish all the routes. Took Petra through as Thief -> Assassin -> Moral Savant. She's pretty great but I really don't think you need a Thief in this FE. Felt kind of weird because my Thief is often my favorite character (Sothe, Mathew, Anna). edit: I also tried really hard to make Flayn work as a Falcoknight. She was terrible. | ||

Maybe lunatic will add some better things to steal, but there is such a limited pool of items you can even steal in the game as is, that it lost a lot of value compared to previous games. | ||

EDIT: Also, realistically I don't think I could keep myself from putting a character like Petra who's proficient in Axe + Flying in anything other than Wyvern Lord. | ||

His bases aren't hopeless for when you get him, and his fantastic proficiency spread (Lance/Axe/Riding/Flying, with base C+ Axe and C+ Bow) gives you a reason to use him beyond just "lol high growths". Since flying around bowing fools is super good, I'd think he's actually quite good. Bases aren't too far off from Seteth, a close comparison. The only other characters with Bow + Flying proficiencies are Claude and Petra... who are both also super good. He lacks a battle-useful ability but tbh I find myself not thinking about abilities that much at the moment. His character seems really unapealling to me though. Does he get some redemption in supports? Donnel was at least good for a laugh | ||

Wait he's an actual trainee? I saw a spreadsheet when the leaks hit that showed his growths as 5-15% across the board | ||

I thought I had a handle on the game but I feel like you guys are talking about a meta game that is several leagues above my level of comprehension. | ||

If anything, the fact that it encourages earlier promotions whenever possible probably makes it easier in the sense that you don't get caught in the beginner trap of delaying promotions too long. Just know which weapon ranks to focus on. | ||
