I haven't allowed a single united to use Brawl weapons because I think they look dumb, but I may make Hilda a Brawler this run.
Male only class which STINKS.

Yeah, Raph's Res is garbage. I had to stuff him full of Res-improving items when I recruited him in BE.I just noticed that my Raphael has a whopping 1 resistance. I may have to give him a certification in a magic class to bring it up a bit.
That's pretty similar to what my BE team looked like. The only difference was that I recruited Sylvain and made him a Wyvern Lord and kept Petra on the ground as an Assassin.Just decided to bench Felix because I really don't need another 'on the ground damage dealer' with Caspar, Edelgard and Byleth already playing that role in my party setup. He's also a recruit so I know that I can use him more in a Blue Lions playthrough. So my final team set up is:
Byleth - Enlightened One
Edelgard - Fortress Knight/Armoured Lord (will decide after time skip)
Hubert - Dark Bishop
Ferdinand - Paladin
Linhardt - Bishop
Caspar - War Master
Bernadetta - Bow Knight
Dorothea - Dancer
Petra - Wyvern Lord
Ingrid - Pegasus Knight
So 3 grounded damage dealers, 3 mounted damage dealers, 3 ranged damage dealers (I've specced Dorothea quite heavily into Reason) and 1 healer/support.
All good?
That's fine for end game. I would recommend going armored lord over fortress knight if you don't plan on going great knight. The extra movement helps a great deal, and Edelgard's defense is so high that Pavise doesn't do a ton for you.Just decided to bench Felix because I really don't need another 'on the ground damage dealer' with Caspar, Edelgard and Byleth already playing that role in my party setup.

I'm trying to figure out what to do with Raphael, Hilda, and Ignatz.
I like how in the second half of the game, every single one of your units can train you during free time, really helps you build the professor into different kind of things if you want. But something I'm finding quite glaring is how what they are actually good at has no bearing on what they can teach you. Someone with a C rank lances and a S+ rank riding skill can't train you in riding but can train you in lances, for example. Stuff like that. I think it should be based on what their skills are actually at instead of what 2 skills the designers thought they wanted to give to each character.
Just beat chapter 18 of GD, story starts to drag a bit... I hope the next mission changes that
Missions where you have to beat the commander are way to easy, just rush him/her with a fast unit.
Put a thief near where that unit spawns and steal it.Any advice on how to get the Dark Seal in Chapter 8? Just tried to kill the Death Knight but at some point in the mission Jeralt decided to go and kill Thomas, so didn't have enough time for the Seal
I love Dorothea but I sorta feel bad for using her. She does not want to be involved in any of this shit.
Especially post time-skip, it kind of feels like she's just gotten the life kicked out of her and would rather be doing literally anything else than being stuck in a war. I think there's an interesting story with her character I'm not sure the game's going to tell, since she was basically in the wrong place at the wrong time and is now stuck doing the thing she likes least with the highest possible consequences. I know there are other sorta pacifists like Lindhart but Dorothea actively apologizes and laments the state of things as her battle dialogue.

Quick question in regards to other routes by this point
So after Dimitri's scene at the ball and his reaction to the dagger at the start of Chapter 11 it seems pretty obvious who the Flame Emperor is. This makes me wonder, is it easy to discern who it is on other routes by this point?

Wait...
I'm now fighting against Edelgard and am tasked with protecting the Crest stones. Does this mean I'm on the Church route or can I still side with Edelgard?
Either Awakening or Echoes, you will feel more familiar with Echoes after playing Three HousesThis is my first FE game and I loved it but tight for time. What's the one FE game on 3DS I should play?
Warmaster, anything with an axe and lastly, go down the mage route, detour back to Swordmaster and when you're satisfied, Mortal Savant.I'm trying to figure out what to do with Raphael, Hilda, and Ignatz.
DON'T TALK ABOUT MY LITTLE ARTIST LIKE THAT!

I could have sworn that how good they were at those ranks influenced what and how good they were at training you back, but I could be totally wrong.
The dodge+attack animations with the bow have to be one of my favorite things.
Raphael - War Master (gauntlets)I'm trying to figure out what to do with Raphael, Hilda, and Ignatz.
War Master Ignatz will be the new meta someday. He likes to paint and punch monsters in the face.
So, Combat Arts kind of... suck, right or am I missing something?
Originally I was going to do the BE C route after finishing BE E (I made sure to have an extra save) but the more I get into BE E the less I ever want to play BE C.
Pretty much, after going through Black Eagles/Crimson Flower, the less I wanna play the Black Eagles/Silver Snow. If I'm ever gonna play it it will prolly be my last playthrough to get the entire narrative of the game.
When I had him using a bow I'm pretty sure he was using paint brushes for arrows considering the damage he was doing.

Yeah, the BE C route is going to be my "last" run, but then I do plan to cap it off with a final BE E route repeat run after that haha.Pretty much, after going through Black Eagles/Crimson Flower, the less I wanna play the Black Eagles/Silver Snow.

haha yeah I'm not really using flayn (got Merce, Lyndhart and Marianna as healers) but as luck would have it, I had felix next to her during the paralogue and got the Support C, now I kinda want to see the rest...Felix the edgelord. I don't think I've seen his Flayn supports yet now that I think about it. Also, this is one of those cases where I desperately want to share this with someone because it's hilarious but I can think of literally 1 person who would get it and he's not on social media :(
