Heya, I just completed a run of Maddening with a pretty wack team.
​
I made a post about this team a while back, at the time I was kind of curious what other people might think and, honestly, pretty nice interactions all around. Admittedly I probably shouldn’t have stuck with Starsphere for so long, but I managed to essentially run everyone with only 1 inheritable skill for most of the game. I should not be underestimated just how versatile Canter(+) can truly be. I was able to practically squeeze water out of stone in certain positions during Maddening, especially in the late-game when the game is at its hardest. Canter is more than just an avenue for extra movement in a game where movement is lacking, it is also an extremely useful tool to keep units out of excessive danger, set up kills, and to keep overall control of the map. In all honesty, this is the most not-stressful Maddening run I’ve had in an FE game. The most notable bottlenecks, in terms of difficulty, were chapters 21, 22, and 25. I also made a Tier list of the units and a list of their roles as well, just to get my thoughts across. The second to last image is the previous post btw. I very much appreciated the advice and thoughts given to me in the last post, that goes without saying. 🤝
