Fire Emblem (revived again)

Oh my Nils was powered up via Ninian via Arena abuse

My Nils does tend to be powered up, but I usually have to rescue him for the entire last chapter because of Kenneth's gang with the Bolting and Purge. I have Ninian dance 50 times in the level where you recruit Hawkeye and Pent so I can get the side chapter, so that's where my strong Nils comes from.

I usually have Athos and Canas both ready with Luna before their door opens so I can kill them earlier on...

I tend to save them for last, only because if any of my units can't dodge a long-range attack by that time they deserve to die...actually, I just storm the place with Canas and Athos as well and go hand-to-hand with them. I also get a lot of success with Nino against him as long as I've equipped her with Excalibur from killing Ursula.

can you refresh my mind of the look of chapter 17? i can help you then, i never needed to restart any chapter so far(unless i get a level up with no stat up), so i think i should be able to help. I've played the chapters really fast recently so i forget the lay out and such.

well, its the beginning of the 4 part chapter. Y'know, when youre finding Reyson? ive tried so many times but i cant find an easy way to get passed it...><

ah 17, that's right, the huge 4 parter. all i did through all the parts was put my units that can survive just on the range of enemies, so they attack, then my weaker defense units or just some other units go and attack them and finish them(if they aren't already dead) then charge to the next line and pull back whoever is in range that i don't want to get hit. though i'd have to say the 3rd part where you find reyson's sister is the most annoying cause you're surrounded, so just about everyone is in range. what i do is head out my strong units to finish off the more effective units like mages and archers that will own my flying units. that one is probably the hardest part. i didn't have a healer so i think you should bring one :P but guard him well. since my ike was already level 20(ever since chapter 14 i think) i didn't use him at all except to finish units if i was in trouble, and since he has leanna(i think that's her name) on his back for a chapter, he becomes almost useless. bring long range units, fast units, and good defense units and it should be fine. it wasn't too hard.

did you see my previous post blue flygon? i hope it helps, also to add, i used ike, soren, nehpenee, brom, kieran, oscar, mia, marcia, boyd(he evolved to warrior), rolf, jill(i think), titania, mist, moradicai(the blue tiger), and the green tiger with the demi band all in the end.

not to mention, rolf becomes a super power sniper if you beef him up, he's got just one less str than boyd who has 25
 
First of all, I recommend that you use units level 17 and above for this level.

Part 1 of the chapter, you just go rout the enemy. Simple as that. Watch out for the reinforcenments that appear behind you.

Second part, just rout the enemy and arrive.

Third part, you take over the North West corner and play defensive. The other units will eventually come and there may be reinforcements coming in. It's better that you place Ike on a thicket because his speed and skill are halved. By this time, you may have some promoted units and you use those as a defensive wall towards the south where two units can stand and they create a wall. Place your magic user on the swamp because mages will be swarming there. Place strong units inside because massive reinforcements will be coming that way.

On the final part, continue moving south and have your healers ready because there will be a mage with Meteor on the north. If possible, keep killing the enemies arriving towards you, and if you have mounted units with you, *important* rescue Tibarn, Ulki, Jannaf, and Reyson. It's better that way so that Tibarn won't kill the boss for you. He'll take the experience away from you and you don't want that. Besides, it's satisfying to kill that fat bishop.

And actually, even if Ike does have Leana traveling with him, he still is able to dodge meteor attacks and bow knights. He can only attack once though. And his defense should be high enough to withstand any attack, mind you...
 
Are there any items in PoR that raise defense? My Boyd has 51 hp but takes hits like a wet paper bag and dodges like a rock.
 
ACK!! how does one not get mist OWNED by the reinforcements when facing The Black Knight?? and why did i not have a staff on her the first time! i think the only thing to do is to level her up so she won't get dominated by the reinforcements right? too bad she's LV 1....crap, i think i'm done... i need her mends in order for ike to live. will lv 8 be enough for her to live? cause if i stop killing the black knight, he cheats and heals 6 hp a turn so basically i should wait for the reinforcements and then kill them first and then go from there, are they infinite or are there only 3? the soldier and 2 priest guys?
 
does ike learn aether with an occult?
i never ever ever cared about using skills, so is that how it works? I have like fricking 5 occults and i was like wha?????? so i paid no mind to them, i looked it up and it seems that occult makes ike get aether so he can be like the adept skill. hope i got some elixers...

Occults lets you teach unique skill for each class...

And you need Aether to beat the Black Knight, btw. And it's nowhere like Adept because Aether is two masterky skills in one.

I used my occult on Astrid, making her heal hear damages because of her low HP, Volke, because an assassin needs the OHKO, and Ike because he needs Aether to beat the Black Knight.

As for Chapter 26, keep your units in the defensive for a few turns and lure the enemy with high defense units and kill them off one by one. Steal some Physics if needed.
 
At what level/levels in PoR should all your units start to promote? I don't have any promoted units on Chapter 15, and on top of it they're all only around level 10-15 =/
 
my first unit promoted at chapter 16, that was boyd. Ike was lv 20 ever since chapter 14. the rest of my guys were lv 16-18. all but rolf promoted in chapter 17, who was lv 20 with like 50 exp. i like to just have a main group, then add on people if i see they have good stats(or i just cheat and use add exp). are you using all of your characters? i only use about 12 of them.
of them consists:
Ike
Soren
Boyd
Rolf
Nephenee
Brom
Oscar
Kieran
Mia
Marcia
Jill
sometimes i substitute for volke on levels with chests and when i can use lots of characters, i add on haar, geoffrey, the new swordmaster and the sage guy that likes to speak like shakespeare, calill, and the stronger laguz people.

EDIT: oh and also, my aether never activated once when i fought the black night(does it only work if you attack him in one range? cause black night's luna never activated eithe and i always attacked him 2 range, that better not be it.. i don't want to play chapter 27 over for the 7th time...), then nasir came and make the castle go boom...i save on a different file slot so i can always go back and try again..when i feel like it
 
Your units should be promoted around CHapter 17...

Aether only activates if you're going for a direct combat. And your Ike needs to be 20/20 if you want to beat the Black Knight. If your Ike's skill is below 25, then you have a very slim chance of activating Aether.
 
my ike is only 17, but he has max str, speed, and def. he can do 9 damage which is the max, he has about 26 skill at the time and he as 91 accuracy vs black night with 71. is that good enough to beat him?
