Reminder that Black eagles is objectively the worst house. Even as far as house leader goes, Edelgard is the worst of the 3. The only character who isn't total shit is Lindhardt and even then, he is objectively the worst HEALER of the 3 main healers in the game.
Dorothea is objectively the worst mage and does not excel at anything else >inb4 muh hexblade. It still doesn't make her outshine everyone else. Hubert has the worst ammo reserve in the game so he's only useful in short missions. He eats through his magic reserves and dark bishop is objectively a bad class. Ferdinand only shines as a tank, which are the worst classes in the game and completely useless (they seriously do more harm than good) Bernadetta is the worst archer. Petra is absolutely meh. Caspar is the worst fighter
Don't even try to debate me, you know its true. There's a reason why a majority of people who play BE end up using the roster of other houses.
Hubert and Bernadetta actually kicked ass in my BE run, they always saved the day. Hubert shoved Mire up any poor soul's ass that dared approach him, and Bernadetta one-shotted everyone who came near her. I only ever recruited Shamir and Raphael because Raphael is cute.

>he is objectively the worst HEALER of the 3 main healers in the game. stop Fucker has warp, a crest that buffs healing, and physic That already trumps most of them
Liam White
It doesn't matter if they are able to shine later on. They're objectively the worst characters of their respective functions.
It doesn't matter,Lysithea and Manuela learn warp as well. The only thing that matters for healers is the spell list. Lindhardt does not learn fortify which makes him objectively the worst healer.
Asher Ortiz
>he gives a shit about the actual capabilities of each fighter The game is fucking piss-easy. It barely matters what fighters you have, you'll still curb-stomp every map. What matters is the personalities of each character and the overall story of each route. BE has the worst story but the best characters.
Christopher Walker
Not on maddening where it's absolutely vital to have good characters
Cameron Scott
Yeah, well, I don't give a shit about Maddening so whatever.
Adam King
Why are you acting like Fortify is the be all, end all? Utilize your chokepoints more effectively and you won't even need it in most cases. And you dismissing tanks means you weren't even using them properly as they render the game trivial in many instances, especially with Edelgard.
You mean farm gold maps and trample everything?
Jackson Ross
>game is absolutely piss easy >w-well this harder difficulty doesn't count! Kill yourself
Justin Clark
You know what, I'm kind of sick of this meme of the game being piss easy even on hard.
Nah senpai, it's pretty challenging on Hard, it's just not major bullshit like other FE games.
This shit totally matters on hard where there's much less experience available
Asher Richardson
>ignores
Nathaniel Brown
>Dorothea is objectively the worst mage So you never used her, then?
Kevin Hernandez
Hell, forget gameplay-wise, look at character wise. Her plan to fix inequality is to use her Imperial soldiers and rob nobles at swordpoint. What the fuck kind of plan is that? Fucking Ferdinand and Lorenz both have better plans to fix the class inequality.
Joshua Rivera
>Petra is meh Well, mine's gotten 6+ stats each level up about 80% of the time.
Jace Robinson
Fuck off, she IS the worst. Meteor doesn't have enough charges to make a difference and Thoron isn't anything special, you get no positive tradeof to Lysithea's ridiculously huge spellbook or Annette's high crits. And if you like meteor so much, Hanneman gets it and he is more powerful than Dorothea.
If you play BE, you'll absolutely notice how healing becomes a major chore, since you know, their healer can only heal 1 character per turn.
>Tanks are good On hard and above, they are ripped to shreds by even archers (who they're supposed to be strong against). Look at that famous webm of Edelgard getting dicked down by a normal archer While she has a steel shield.
So tanks just end up being guys with much lower mobility, that die in 1 hit from mages and that are not particularly strong against anyone else.
Ian Myers
Dorothea is a perfectly fine mage that can excel at reason and faith, has access to gremory, and has Thoron, Meteor, AND Physic. Generally good at very long range which is a nice niche to keep her away from harm, high charm for strong gambits too.
Tanks are absolutely great and essential too, Ferdinand just isn't good at being one in particular (personality/design-wise one of the best characters in the game though). He's no Dedue, honestly he might be better with the gimmick of dancer with his generally bad stats + using a sword because he excels in it and equip the sword avoid skill to stack with his personal skill boosting avoid. Stack that with flying for Alert Stance and he can make for a dodgetank instead.
Blue Lions and Golden Deer are way stronger houses overall though.
Aaron Roberts
That's literally RNG Lysithea is described as having the worst growths in the game, yet she's also the highest damage dealer
Landon Reyes
I beat BE, user
The only trip-up with Fern and Edelgard as tanks is the fire at the very last map. If they're not facetanking virtually everything for single digit damage for you, you're either getting fucked on growths or you didn't distribute your growth items properly. Remember to go big or go home with tanks.
And to be fair, that archer webm is the very first mission for the timeskip, where El just got her armor (assuming you weren't already building her for def).
Brayden Jones
Reminder that I love my wife Bernadetta! The cutest and best archer in all of Fodlan!
>The only character who isn't total shit is Lindhardt and even then, he is objectively the worst HEALER of the 3 main healers in the game
He gets Warp, the best spell in the game. Lysithea is better on offense than as a healer (although should still carry Warp because it's that good), so best healer comes down to him or Manuella.
>Hubert has the worst ammo reserve in the game so he's only useful in short missions
Extra range by default compensates for this.
>Dorothea is objectively the worst mage and does not excel at anything else
Way better than Annette.
>Ferdinand only shines as a tank
He's fine, unremarkable.
>Bernadetta is the worst archer.
Ignatz is literally the worst unit in the entire game.
>Petra is absolutely meh.
Crazy speed, makes a great Falcon or Wyvern, although Leonie is basically just a better version of her.
>Caspar is the worst fighter
Raphael is worse, being tankier doesn't benefit the gauntlet classes, they should be 2-shotting enemies before they get a turn anyway.
