2nd maddening run results
Decided to do another run of maddening while waiting for fortunes weave.(beaten twice before another trailer💔💔💔) Anyways i wanted to post my team and talk about it.
Alear: Honestly this worked out perfectly. Qi adept for 100% bonded shield(which i abused im ngl), never got targeted, could heal or get staves from convoy, and could recharge my meter very fast with flashing fist.
Goldmary: wanted to try a traditional dmg mitigation tank which i did not try in my first run. She did her job well. It’s crazy how despite so much defense i actually felt the need to still have ike on her in endgame.
Kagetsu: I wanted to have him be wyvern rider and kind of offtank with ike midgame but i actually was budgeting really hard after brodia lv4 so i didnt second seal him and he did…….just fine. Then i had the idea to give him lyn with a corrin engraved killing edge and he was a walking delete button to everything thats not an armored unit. Guaranteed crits with alacrity made him an insane playerphase nuke.
4.seadall: dance.
Anna: 1 of my mage carries. Insane magic, amazing speed, generates money, and quite low investment ngl but i miciah grinded her lvs in jean’s paralogue.
Ivy: Great flying utility/support. Was almost like a mini hortensia and was very nice to have byleth dance on a flyer.
Fogado: Okay this unit impressed me, i know eirika is doing alot of heavy lifting but man….he one shots all flyers with radiant, is insanely fast and chunks any and everyone with lunar brace, brave bow builds meter fast, sieglinde is a delete button to corrupted in the last stretch, and hes mounted so more move than my warrior fogado i had last run.
Pandreo: him and anna were shaq and kobe. I bonded shielded them and they tore through entire chunks of the map by themselves so hard it’s almost unfair.
Timerra: Very strong bruiser, shes heavy rng but with crit and sandstorm procs i felt quite confident gambling. Didnt even use any stat boosters so shes probs even better with them.
Panette: vantage wrath, very strong. Used her more as a playerphase nuke actually but the vantage is nice insurance and carried me for corrin’s paralogue specifically.
Veyle: didnt know what to do with her ngl but i like fist users in general so i thought itd be nice to have an offensive one and she pretty much chunks any and everything due to lunar brace while having staff utility
Chloe: carried tf outta early game with lances then when i felt like having more staff util and kagetsu started popping off i made her a sword griffin knight and she still performed very well.
Hortensia: support flier, final boss of utlity.
Mauvier: an extra staff user that flies, can never go wrong with that.
As for last thoughts…..ch25 was def the hardest as i actually felt quite challenged which is scary cause id like to think my team is pretty strong. Very satisfied how i built my team this run and everything kinda worked out so i think ill put engage down for the foreseeable future. Definitely didnt expect to finish all 3 houses routes(ignoring church) on maddening, and 2 engage runs(also on maddening) while waiting for the next fortunes weave trailer but here we are. It was peak.
