Don't worry, that's not a big problem. Morgan is just as usable and lovable as he was before. It's not like promotion, so you're not "missing out" on anything if you use a Second Seal early.

I've made the worst mistake ever... the worse mistakes of mistakes... I used a Second Seal on Morgan thinking it'll give him a mega stat boost.... but now, he doesn't even get ANY stat changes. D: Ugh, so, do I ditch him or keep using him? I'm so confused. :C
god im replying to this late. anyway dont worry about it. i guess you reclassed him to the same class right? and he didnt get any boost but went back to lv1. that gives him more levels to raise his stats (since at lv 20 he wont be able to get any more stats) thats how people cap their stats in awakening actually so dont worry about it ;)

I'm not much of a fan of second seals, because there are some units who aren't good at utilizing a certain stat (Ex: Cordelia has poor Magic stats, so she'll be terrible in her mage class).
yeah but she is a great hero and just like you said since she has a poor magic stat she wont be able to do good in any pegasus knight classes since falcon knights utilize staffs and dark fliers utilize magic. also second seals are a must if you're on ability hunting (which i am)

Even if a unit has a poor stat (like Cordelia and magic), you can always use supports to balance that out. Raising support levels with a Sorcerer would give a Pegasus class much needed magic and defense.

Also, tonics are amazing, don't underestimate them. XD

yeah but cordelia is a better hero or bow knight than a falcon knight or dark flier (dark flier has galeforce though so you better get it before reclassing) there are already enough characters that use staves and magic so cordelia would be better off having sword and axes(bows) than lances and magic(staves) since she'd be able to use them both to their maximum capabilities. I think raising her high strength and skill even more would be better than barely balancing her magic to a decent level to deal some actual damage (or heal)

that applies to other units as well. i think working on a characters strong points is more important than covering his/her weak points that (s)he doesnt have to use since it'll be decent at best while it could've been perfect.

I've never played Fire Emblem. I'm guessing you guys here are huge fans. So what's it actually like? Can you compare it to another game?
well its an rpg strategy game where you take control of an army and battle to either free your homeland which is invaded at the start of the game or defeat otherwordly demons and save the realm. although i never played it people seem to be comparing it a lot to final fantasy but i guess they have some essential gameplay differences between them. advance wars is also similar to it and has a better multiplayer mode but it has an almost non-existant story mode
hope i helped :)

Oh yeah, there are definitely optimal classes for each character as well as useless classes. I was just saying that if someone really wanted to use a non-optimal class, there are ways of making it usable in the main story.

It's a lot like Final Fantasy Tactics or Super Robot Taisen.

I like Cordelia in Pegasus Knight class but that's purely a aesthetic preference. And obviously Dark Mage class is available to her just so she can get Vengeance.

She's not that bad of a staff user but of course she's much better as a combat unit, either as Hero or Falcon Knight.

Dark Flier is a very poor class IMO regardless of Cordelia's MAG stat and should never be your final class unless you're the Avatar, who can attack from both sides effectively. Lissa and Maribelle have poor STR, Sumia is crap offensively and only useful as a speedbot, and Cordelia has poor MAG. They knew that when they made the game so they gave Dark Flier Galeforce to compensate, but it's not a good final class IMO. Generally mixed classes are bad in RPGs.

Say I was thinking about playing a fire emblem game, which one would you guys recommend me play first, Acknowledging my complete ignorance of the story/ characters etc.?
well starting from the first game is always good so you can play Shadow Dragon (a ds remake of the original nes version of the first game) or Blazing Sword (which is the first game that saw worldwide release also known as just "Fire Emblem") you can also play Awakening which is a pretty good game but there are some characters that appear in the older games so there might be a few plotholes for you. just pick whichever suits you better

I suppose Blazing Sword would be better since Shadow Dragon is widely regarded as the worst FE game.

Actually, I suggest you start with Awakening itself. The story is cohesive enough to be understood even by someone who never played an FE game before (like me).

You don't need to worry about story, since most of them are separate from each other. I would say Awakening would be a good start, but really, you can start with any one that catches your fancy.

Actually, Blazing Sword would be a great start now that I think of it. It doesn't have weapon forging, reclassing, or multiple promotion options for units, so it's pretty simple and good for learning the basics of Fire Emblem gameplay. Plus, my brother and I played that when we were 9 and 11 (respectively), so I can assure you that it's easy enough for a beginner to get into (on lower difficulties).

I messed up on my file, I have a character I don't even like, but I think I got the classing kinda right. But anyway, Ima gonna start fresh as soon as I have inspiration to go through all of that again. xD

So, should I finally embrace Chrom? Or should I be a boy called Nathaniel and marry Cordelia, have a beautiful Morgan and Severa? :P
Embrace Chrom because Cordelia is mine.

How the **** do you create files so fast? It took me 20 hours of gameplay to beat the game. I'm astounded by people who say they can beat this in 2 hours.

Haha, yeah, I'll be a girl and marry Chrom. Married Henry last time, didn't end well. xD

I dunno, my mind just works really fast with Strategy games. I can easily view the map for the first time, instantly know who to send, what to equip them with and then I either scatter them or gather them in a sort of gang. :P Yeah, so as soon as I stop playing Animal Crossing: New Leaf, I'll move onto Awakening again. :P

Thank you~

He's been announced?? :O Holy cow! I'm so happy!!!!!!! ^^ YAYYAYYAYAYYAYAYYAYAY! He was so darn fun in Melee! :D

Lost my cool there. xD

Anyway, I'm going to marry Chrom, but what class should I have? I was previously a Wvyern Rider, but I was so darn OP. Hmm... need help~
What classes have you wanted to try? XD Personally, I think War Clerics with Bolt Axe are cool.

I dunno, you should be something unusual, like a Sniper, or something. XD
