Fire Emblem, Engage!
« on: February 14, 2023, 02:29:33 AM »

When times are darkest and cavity rates skyrocketing across the land, a long forgotten hero will arise from the slumber of a thousand years to educate the populace on the importance of regular brushing and flossing.  Maintain your original teeth, folks, they're better than artificial crowns and less expensive.  Good for heart health too, strangely enough.

  • Jump here to see the version of this topic with characters + Emblems: Emblemology 101

Mechanics
It's mostly the Fire Emblem you know and love.  The notable big changes:
* If you have weapon triangle advantage on the attack and actually deal damage (i.e. no 0 damage hits), this will add "Break" status to the foe, causing them to be unable to counterattack both in the current combat and their next combat.  They'll recover after their next combat, though.  In the DL, I would see this as a property of the defender (read: the Engage cast) because there are various ways for defenders to neutralize this - being an armored unit, standing on a fortress or certain other defensive terrain, certain boss skills - but no real way for attackers to be "good" at breaking.
** In addition to the usual Sword>Axe>Lance triangle, Arts > (Tomes, Bows, Daggers) as well.
* Classes aren't too crazy this time around - they mostly want to let the Emblems shine, and indeed the Emblem Rings can dramatically switch up how a character performs.  Won't matter in this initial topic, though.
* Characters can equip up to two skills.  Learning a skill requires both SP and sufficient bond level with the Emblem that teaches that skill (as well as access to the Emblem, of course).  In-game, bond points are plentiful enough that it's absolutely trivial to buy the cheaper BLs, so that's not the limiting factor, but SP as well as only two slots are.  The current topic doesn't allow for any skills at all, but all the characters are a little tougher in-game than shown thanks to skills even when not equipped with an Emblem Ring.  (Notably, if allowed, lots of the cast would love to grab Avoid +20 from Marth, requiring only BL 9 with him, or maybe Corrin's Draconic Hex for stat-busting, requiring only BL 8.)
* Certain weapons have the "smash" attribute.  Smash weapons can't double and allow the other side's counterattacks to come first when initiating (but CAN counterattack in the middle when attacked by an opponent that doubles them).  They tend to be very powerful-if-inaccurate though and will push the enemy back a square (take that, WA4 Farmel).  Since counterattacks aren't as big a deal in the DL, they're probably going to be a bit overrated in the DL.

Level
Characters are taken at 20/20 (for most characters) or 40 (for special classes), as the second-to-final map suggests Advanced Level 18 and that matches my own experience.  The datamine shows the "Internal Level" of prepromotes and the claimed level there has matched with other evidence - e.g. Vander promoted at L16 (=internal level of 15), Qi Adepts gain less XP when Chain Guarding someone under their level, and a streamer saw a reduced gain of XP once their Chain Guarder got above level 16.  These prepromotes have been given levels to be an equivalent internal level, e.g. */20/5 for characters with internal level 15.

Formulas
Physical damage: Str + Weapon Might - Defense
Magic damage: Mag + Weapon Might - Resistance
Arts damage: (Str+Mag)/2 + Weapon Might - Defense.  Most Arts weapons have a Brave effect of attacking twice when initiating combat (but not for counterattacks).

Attack Speed: Speed - MAX(0, Weapon Weight - Build)
Follow up attacks ("doubling"): Happen if attack speed of one side > 5 by default.  There are a few FE Heroes-style effects from Emblems and Bond Rings that can mess with this and let both sides double or other weirdness, e.g. Olwen's Bond Ring or DLC Emblem Hector's Quick Riposte.

Hit: (Weapon Hit) + 2x Dex + [Lck / 2]
Avoid: 2x Attack Speed + [Lck / 2]
True Hit: (Hit-Avoid) -> Look up hit rates on this chart: https://fireemblemwiki.org/wiki/True_hit#Fates,_Shadows_of_Valentia,_and_Engage .  It's Fates/Echoes True Hit, so Hit less than 50 is just 1RN the number, and Hit higher than 50 is a bit better (~1.33 RN?), loosely equivalent to adding +5 to +10 to the displayed hit rate for the real hit rate.  Examples: 60 ->64.7%; 70 ->78.9%; 80 -> 90.1%; 90 -> 97.1%.

Critical rate (base): (Weapon Crit) + 0.5*Dex
Dodge (Critical evasion): Luck
Critical rate: Crit - Dodge
Criticals are 3x damage.

"Effective" weapons are 3x weapon might in the damage calculation (e.g. bows vs. fliers).

Status effects
Notable status ailments that exist in game are Poison, Freeze (don't move), and Break (can't counter next attack).  Poison is added via daggers - even chain attacks from daggers if you somehow make a Backup dagger user - and each dagger hit that connects adds a stack (Disclaimer: a follow-up attack in the same combat won't add a second stack).  1 stack of poison is +1 true damage, 2 stacks is +3, and 3 stacks (the max) is +5 true damage.  However, a poisonous attack needs to break defense first to add a stack - a dagger-user fighting a General doing 0 damage won't add a stack.  Status can be cleared with a Restore staff or an Antitoxin item for poison.
(Note: This section, and much of the Internet, previously said that poison stacks forever and is +1 damage per stack.  This is not correct.)

Equipment
Engage has Echoes-style forging.  In-game, this means you will probably focus on one or two "good" weapons per-user with increasing the forge level and adding Emblem Engravings.  This is slightly awkward with the DL.  Weapons should be allowed to be forged up (which will still be worse than in-game due to no engravings), but the DL tends to allow a lot more flexibility, but it simply isn't realistic for, say, a Sword/Lance user like Goldmary to have forged all of a Silver Sword / Lance, Killing Edge/Killer Lance, Steel Blade/Greatlance, Slim Sword/Lance, Javelin, Spear, Armorslayer, Wyrmslayer, Ridersbane, Levin Sword, and Flame Lance.  I've elected to assume that there are primary weapons that are forged up, and backup weapons which are unforged or very cheaply forged.  Characters have access to 4 "primary" weapons, which will generally be Silvers of their primary weapon types, a different range weapon if possible (Javelin, Mini Bow, Elthunder, etc.), a Smash weapon, and something else if there's still room for more, e.g. a killer weapon or a weakness-hitter.  Some exceptions exist, as usual.  For me, I'd be inclined to say that if a character wants a backup weapon not in their primary 4, it should probably be unforged to reflect that you don't have infinite weapon slots in-game.

Equipment that is bought infinitely at shops and prfs are legal.  Some other equipment is also allowed if you can get at least 3 of them reasonably without need for equipment mutation, although potentially restricted minorly.  Notably, that means this topic does not consider Brave weapons (just 2 of each type), although Braves are harshly nerfed in this game anyway (sorry Panette / Louis).  Silver smash weapons, Excalibur/Thoron, and Peshkatz also only have 2 each and won't appear here.

For a list of raw weapon stats, see the appendix.

Assumed enemy stats
Enemy Defense:   25
Enemy Resistance:   25
Enemy Luck:     15
Enemy Hit:   140

For PC durabilities, I've assumed an enemy attack with power 46 for both physical and magical damage.

(Possible Chloe wants to fit in a Steel Lance +4 to maximize evasion / speed?  Or a Spear since Javelin's damage is kinda sus?  Hrmm.)

Elsurge +3: 24 damage (7% Critical), 270 Hit.  Range 1.
Mend: 36 HP healing.

Self-Healing: Unit can target itself with healing staves.

Jean, Lvl 20 Martial Master
46 HP, 22 Str, 28 Mag, 23 Dex, 22 Spd, 26 Def, 34 Res, 21 Lck, 8 Bld, 5 Move
0.89 PCHP, 1.05 PDurability, 1.78 MDurability, 54 Raw Avoid, 5.2% Evasion

Silver-Spirit Art +3: 24 damage (2x 12 damage on initiation), 91 Hit (97.5% accuracy)
Flashing Fist Art +3: 24 damage (2x 12 damage on initiation), 96 Hit (99.2% accuracy), 26 AS, 11.8% Evasion.  Speed +5, damage taken +5. (Durability falls to 0.85 PDur, 1.26 MDur)
Shielding Art +4: 8 damage, 81 Hit (91% accuracy). +5 defense.  Single hit.  (Phys. durability rises to 1.39)

Jean probably wants to promote to High Priest in the DL as the default: Self-Healing is really good when combined with range 1-2 counter-attacks.  That said, there are quirky situations MM is better, since Martial Master with Flashing Fist Art deals a little more damage with higher speed (despite the +5 damage taken), although loses a bunch of damage on range 1 counterpunching.  I would recommend nominating Jean with a specific promotion IMO.

Anna, Lvl 20 Warrior
57 HP, 25 Str, 20 Mag, 31 Dex, 30 Spd, 14 Def, 21 Res, 19 Lck, 11 Bld, 5 Move
1.11 PCHP, 0.82 PDurability, 1.07 MDurability, 69 Raw Avoid, 19.8% Evasion

Silver Bow +3: 17 damage, 111 Hit
Radiant Bow +3: 17 damage, 101 Hit, 29 AS, 17.3% Evasion.  Magic weapon.
Hurricane Axe +3: 18 damage, 96 Hit (99.2% accuracy), 26 AS, 10.8% Evasion.  Smash weapon.  Magic weapon.
Hand Axe +3: 10 damage, 96 Hit (99.2% accuracy), 29 AS, 17.3% Evasion. Range: 1~2

Anna can also promote to Berserker, but this is very unwise as she has Bow talent and gives up Radiant Bow, which can double, for Hurricane Axe as her only magic option.

Alcryst, Lvl 20 Tireur d'élite
51 HP, 24 Str, 5 Mag, 40 Dex, 29 Spd, 22 Def, 14 Res, 15 Lck, 10 Bld, 5 Move
0.99 PCHP, 0.97 PDurability, 0.74 MDurability, 65 Raw Avoid, 15.0% Evasion
Personal skill: Get Behind Me!, Class skill: Luna, Weapon proficiency: S Bow

Silver Bow +3: 16 damage (5% Critical), 127 Hit
Mini Bow +5: 6 damage (10% Critical), 152 Hit, Range 1.  Dodge +20.
Longbow +3: 9 damage (5% Critical), 112 Hit,  Range: 2~3
Killer Bow +3: 9 damage (40% Critical), 112 Hit

Luna: While making an attack, may ignore half of foe’s Def/Res. Trigger %=Dex.  (40% chance of +12 damage to assumed enemy Def/Res)

(Alcryst is the third-highest magic bow user and could theoretically use a Radiant Bow +3, but he only deals 2 damage with it to average Res.)

Fair Fight: If unit initiates combat, grants Hit+15 to unit and foe if foe is able to counterattack.  (Applies even if the counterattack is theoretical, e.g. due to breaking the foe from weapon triangle advantage or having a hit that will KO the target first.)
Sol: Unit may recover HP=50% damage dealt. Trigger %=Dex. (22%)

37) 2.9  Seadall: Silver-Spirit Art +3, 3 damage, 93 Hit (98.3% acc.), 32 AS

Notes: Celine, Citrinne, and Veyle are using Elfire and Misericorde rather than Bolganone due to Build concerns.  Could make a similar argument for Lapis, but I think she needs the damage from Silver more than the speed from Steel.  Diamant uses a Silver Sword for consistent accuracy but his average damage is slightly higher with a Silver Axe.  You can argue that Alcryst's Luna should be baked in, since its 40% proc rate makes it highly likely to come up in 3 rounds of combat.  While Jean is listed twice here, don't worry, he's only in the average once.

33) 14  Clanne: Bolganone +2, 14 damage, 105 Hit, 29 AS
34) 14  Yunaka: Silver Dagger +3, 14 damage, 121 Hit, 32 AS
35) 13.6  Vander: Iron Greataxe +4, 17 damage, 71 Hit (80.2% acc.), 18 AS
36) 13  Hortensia: Elsurge +3, 13 damage, 285 Hit, 34 AS
37) 2.9  Seadall: Silver-Spirit Art +3, 3 damage, 93 Hit (98.3% acc.), 32 AS

Notes: Clanne & Celine don't use a Steel Blade because there isn't room in his default set IMO, it's minorly more damage than Bolganone but not enough to be THAT interesting given the huge drawback.  Diamant opts for Steel Blade over Steel Greataxe for usual accuracy concerns, although if he thinks his Fair Fight passive will be active a lot, he might take the Greataxe if he thinks he's gonna survive the initiative counter.  High Priests / Hortensia switch to the range-1 Elsurge over the more generally useful Elfire for a very minor damage boost.

Placeholder for a "with plot Emblem Rings" side-average, perhaps.  Will wait a bit to see if people find flaws or complaints with the base topic, though, or strong opinions on how this should work.

Strong claims:
* Alear & Marth. 
* Celine & Celica.
* Yunaka & Micaiah
* Diamant & Roy
* Ivy & Lyn
* Timerra & Ike
* Seadall & Corrin
* Rosado & Eirika

All of these are "force equipped" on one character and nobody else.

Medium claims:
* Byleth is equipped on enemy Hortensia twice, and there isn't really anyone else with a more direct claim to him.
* Lucina is equipped to Alear in C11.  Alear has a much stronger association & more dialogue with Marth, though.

Weak claims:
* Sigurd is associated with Alfred in some of the promo material.  He also teaches Lance Power, which vaguely suggests a Lance user for him.  Maybe.  You can equip him in C4 and your only Lance user there is Alfred, so he has a weak claim, for all that Lance Power isn't a very good skill given the SP cost.  (You could also maybe extend this to Chloe & Louis, who join in C4, but you can't give them Sigurd until the next map.)
* Leif is equipped on enemy Ivy in C8, but Ivy has a much better claim to Lyn.  Not really clear who else should have Leif - he teaches a Dagger skill that is also not very good, and your only Dagger user at the time, Yunaka, also has a stronger claim elsewhere.
* Lucina teaches Bow Agility, which is actually kinda decent.  This could give her to Etie or Alcryst in C12.
* Lucina is equipped to enemy Hortensia in C7, but she has a better claim on Byleth per above.

Very weak claims:
* Eirika: In the plot, Rosado & Goldmary were theoretically bringing the Ring of the Azure Twins to Hortensia (and still somehow treats Alear as an enemy for 10 seconds, so it wasn't being delivered to "the good guy team in general"), so you could give Hortensia Eirika rather than Byleth perhaps.
* Enemy Mauvier is equipped with Micaiah, but Yunaka has a much stronger claim.  Enemy Veyle is equipped with Marth, but Alear has a much stronger claim.
* Alfred has Lucina in the cutscene before the prologue, but this cutscene is also apparently total lies, so make of that what you will.

I'm inclined to have a "generic fighter" for average purposes for Lucina & Leif, let Alfred have Sigurd, let Hortensia have Byleth, and use the strong claims by default.  But I could be argued otherwise.

Bosses

This will be super-lazy as idk if there will be tons of interest.  Engage has "Revival Stones" which is a really cool mechanic to make bosses feel like bosses in gameplay, but are also busted as all hell in the DL.  Essentially, after depleting a lifebar, "overkill" damage is wasted, and the target will get a full heal.  While it's very possible to one-round bosses anyway, it'll be due to a team all smashing them, which you may or may not reflect in letting damage bleed through (fully?  partially?).  Interp headache!  Also means even the scrubbiest bosses punch above their weight, similar to the Persona 4 auto-revives.

Anyway, some basic stats for two bosses at least, the Hard Mode stats of the C23 version of the remaining Four Hounds...  I'll use endgame stats which are a little high for the expected level, but take into account you'll have Emblem Rings equipped which will boost stats (and maybe throw in some stat boosters too).

Discount Hubert Griss, Level 17 Sage
45 HP (2 revival stones, 135 functional HP), 15 Str, 38 Mag, 20 Dex, 20 (15) Spd, 23 Def, 33 Res, 14 Lck, 9 Bld, 5 Move
37 raw Avo (0% Evade vs. ~150 Hit)
* Nova: 42 (2x 21) damage.  58 Hit (61.7% accuracy).  15 AS.  If unit initiates combat, attacks twice.  (Taken vs. 22 Res, 64 Avo)
* Fortify: Recover 26 HP for all allied units in a 5-square radius.

Zephia, Level 37 Melusine
59 HP (2 revival stones, 177 functional HP), 26 Str, 28 Mag, 22 Dex, 33 (25) Spd, 28 Def, 28 Res, 11 Lck, 10 Bld, 6 Move
55 raw Avo (1% Evade vs. ~150 Hit).  Stalwart: Reduces damage from effectiveness (bows are 2x weapon might rather than 3x?).
* Georgios: 36 damage.  75 Hit (85% accuracy).  25 AS.  Smash weapon.    (Taken vs. 22 Def/Res, 64 Avo)  Soulblade: Damage is taken vs. an average of foe's Def & Res rather than pure Def.
* Thoron: 24 damage.  55 Hit (57.3% accuracy). 27 AS.  Range 1~3. (Taken vs. 22 Res, 64 Avo)

They're wielding droppable weapons for team fights vs. foes that have S-rank Swords or Tomes!  Hype!

Anyway, they're both probably annoyingly High Heavies despite the accuracy flaws?  Counterattacks & free lifebars will do that, although being harsh about damage rollover between revival stones can knock them down to Low Heavy or even Middle.  Note that these are moving bosses and the structure of the map makes it hard to get into Griss's shorter range without also getting into Zephia's.  However, you can guarantee that Zephia can only attack you with a Thoron on her first move if you'd like by only moving to the outskirts of her range.  Georgios being a Smash weapon is trouble if Zephia is facing someone who can KO a lifebar on their now initiative counterattack, which can force her into using the less damaging and inaccurate Thoron even when she doesn't want to be.

EDIT: I realized boss Marni was left out.  She's only fought once without a Dark Emblem, in C14 which is ages earlier than stat topic levels.  She doesn't have a Revival Stone on Hard (but does on Maddening), so this means she's going to just die horribly in the DL.  Hurricane Axe murders flyers / the wind-weak at least, but her Magic score isn't that great, so it's not that impressive otherwise.

DLC characters (not in averages)

For funzies, 3/5 of the DLC characters (not doing Nel & Nil out of laziness and requiring a new weapon type for them).

Zelestria, Lvl 20 Melusine (aka Zephia)
52 HP, 26 Str, 27 Mag, 25 Dex, 33 Spd, 23 Def, 28 Res, 11 Lck, 11 Bld, 6 Move
1.01 PCHP, 1.02 PDurability, 1.34 MDurability, 71 Raw Avoid, 22.4% Evasion
Personal skill: Friendly Boost, Class skill: Soulblade, Weapon proficiency: A Swd, S Tome

Bolganone +2: 20 damage, 95 Hit (98.9% accuracy). Range: 1~2
Silver Sword +3: 17 damage, 100 Hit.
Steel Blade +3: 23 damage (2% Critical), 85 Hit (94.2% accuracy),
Elthunder +3: 16 damage, 85 Hit (94.2% accuracy), 32 AS, 19.8% Evasion. Range: 1~3

Soulblade: When attacking with a sword, damage is calculated using average of foe's Def and Res.

Note: The weapon ranks are not a typo.  Oddly enough, DLC Zelestria's Melusine is S Tomes / A Swords, while enemy Zephia's Melusine is the reverse.

Gregory, Lvl 20 Sage (aka Griss)
45 HP, 16 Str, 40 Mag, 18 Dex, 18 (16) Spd, 20 Def, 40 Res, 17 Lck, 9 Bld, 5 Move
0.87 PCHP, 0.78 PDurability, 3.47 MDurability, 44 (64) Raw Avoid, 0.8% (13.9%) Evasion
Personal skill: Survival Plan, Class skill: Spell Harmony, Weapon proficiency: S Tome, B Staff

Bolganone +2: 33 damage, 84 Hit (93.5% accuracy), 16 AS. Range: 1~2
Elsurge +3: 31 damage (4% Critical), 18 AS. 249 Hit
Elthunder +3: 29 damage, 74 Hit (83.8% accuracy), 15 AS. Range: 1~3
Elwind +3: 25 damage, 84 Hit (93.5% accuracy), 18 AS. Range: 1~2

Survival Plan: When there are more foes than allies within 3 spaces, grants Avo+20. (Essentially on all the time in a duel, unless his opponent has extremely long range - 4+ range is quite rare for enemies.  Note that while using AS drop weapons, his evasion will drop a tad.)

Madeline, Lvl 20 General (aka Marni)
65 HP, 37 Str, 10 Mag, 17 Dex, 10 Spd, 43 Def, 14 Res, 14 Lck, 17 Bld, 4 Move
1.26 PCHP, 9.79 PDurability, 0.94 MDurability, 27 Raw Avoid, 0.0% Evasion
Personal skill: Knightly Code, Class skill: Swap, Weapon proficiency: S Axe

Silver Axe +3: 32 damage, 66 Hit (73.4% accuracy)
Tomahawk +2: 28 damage, 56 Hit (58.7% accuracy). Range: 1~2
Steel Greataxe +3: 42 damage, 51 Hit (51.4% accuracy)
Hurricane Axe +3: 8 damage, 66 Hit (73.4% accuracy)

Appendix


Class types
Class types mostly don't matter in the DL as they mostly have to do with terrain.  The exception is Armored, whose benefit does carry over, so congrats to Louis & Jade.
* Dragon: Better Engage bonuses from Emblems. Weak to dragon-effective weapons.
* Cavalry: Classes have a bit higher Move.  Weak to cavalry-effective weapons.
* Flier: Classes have a bit higher Move, can enter spaces inaccessible to others, and ignore terrain movement penalties.  Weak to bows, wind magic, and wind-elemental weapons (e.g. Hurricane Axe, Wind Sword).
* Backup: Unit can participate in "chain attacks" if their weapon is in threat range of an enemy, and an ally attacks that enemy.  Chain attacks are flat 10% max HP damage and fixed 80% accuracy by default.
* Covert: Unit gets double avoid bonuses from terrain.
* Mystical: Unit ignores terrain bonuses to evasion when attacking using magic.
* Qi Adept: At full health, unit can use Chain Guard, which protects adjacent allies from one attack at the cost of 20% of the chain guarder's HP.
* Armored: Unit can't be broken by weapon triangle disadvantage.  (They might still be broken if hit by a smash weapon when they can't move?  Unsure.)  Weak to armor-effective weapons.

More on equipment legality

Forge level:
* Silvers are allowed to forge a little higher for the cost/expense than other weapon types.  I think this is fair because they provide a good baseline, getting to +3 is very doable in game, and is kind of important as +3 provides an all-important weight reduction.

Shop-limited weapons I'm allowing:
* You get 3 Steel Blades/Greatlances/Greataxes for sale along with 1 Silver version and various drops (albeit some in paralogues).  If we include the Silver, that's 4+ Smash weapons of Steel or better, so I'm inclined to just allow Steel.  No real fair way to parcel them out, every physical fighter wants one if they need to surge out damage, the enemy can't counter (common in the DL), and they aren't doubling.
* In the same way, there are 3 Spears / Tomahawks for sale + some guaranteed drops (I got 3 Spears & 2 Tomahawks for free on top of that).  Just considering them legal.
* Levin Sword, Flame Lance, Hurricane Axe, Radiant Bow, Flashing Fist Art, and Bolganone all have 2 for sale + 1 guaranteed drop for 3 total.  So letting the 3 highest Magic users have the appropriate magic weapon (Levin Sword: Celine / Clanne / Merrin; Flame Lance: Mauvier / Chloe / [Rosado and Timerra]; Hurricane Axe: Anna, Rosado, Jade; Radiant Bow: Anna, Fogado, Alcryst).  There are only 3 characters that can even equip A-Rank arts by default, so sure, they all get access to Flashing Fist Art I guess.
* Bolganone is a little trickier.  3 copies, but 6 potential A-rank Tome users…  but you can get a 4th from getting Elusia to donation level 3 if you really wanted it, which isn't as insanely expensive as level 4 or 5, and Obscurite is basically spooky Bolganone (if slightly worse).  And you can certainly have A-rank Tomes on your mages if you want thanks to 2x copies of Excalibur and Thoron.  I guess you could argue that it would go to the 3 highest build tome-users.  I've considered it legal-in-general but would lightly recommend only allowing it as a primary weapon.
* I count 2 Killing Edges and 3 Wo Daos / Killer Axe / Killer Lance / Killer Bows total (2 shop, 1 drop for each).  I'm going to assume I somehow missed a Killing Edge.  No real good way to hand these out, everyone potentially wants one if pressuring a healer.

Excluded stuff:
* Peshkatz being disallowed is arguably a little cruel since there are only 3 users of A-rank Daggers (Yunaka / Zelkov / Merrin), they can all use S-rank Daggers, and Carnwenhan is pretty similar as an S-rank 1-range dagger.  (Plus, if you really needed the third you could forge it).  Mostly disallowing it out of consistency with disallowing Silver smash weapons which also had 2 copies.
* S-Rank weapons: There's an argument to allow S-rank stuff despite being one-of-a-kind just so that having an S-rank means something.  If allowed..  Lapis, Diamant, and Kagetsu would get Caladbolg and Georgios.  Chloe, Louis, Amber, and Timerra would get Brionac.  Vander, Boucheron, Jade, Berserker Anna, and Panette get Ukonvasara.  Alcryst and Etie get Lendabair. Citrinne, Ivy, Lindon, and Veyle get Nova. Yunaka, Zelkov, and Merrin would get Carnwenhan, and maybe Cinquedea too although that weapon drops just before the final battle.  Martial Masters are out of luck, their secret Arts weapon requires a lvl. 5 area donation for hahahahahano amounts of cash.

Dragons & dragon-effective weapons
Note that "Dragon" and "Fell Dragon" are different things as far as the game is concerned.  As such, the wyrmslayers that sword-users have access to are limited in what they can hit, and Veyle may not be weak to vanilla dragon-slaying stuff from other games (for all that there is just about one enemy equipped with a Wyrmslayer left in the game I can think of after she joins).  Note that Wyvern Rider and Ivy/Hortensia's unique classes count as regular dragons, though.

Preliminary DL kneejerks

Low Heavy: High Priest Jean, Pandreo, Kagetsu
High Middle: Panette
Middle: Alear, Boucheron, Chloe, Louis, Citrinne, Lapis, Diamant, Merrin, Rosado, Goldmary, Saphir, Mauvier
Low Middle: Alfred, Warrior Anna, Amber, Jade, Timerra, Bunet, Lindon
High Light: Clanne, Martial Master Jean, Yunaka, Ivy, Velkov, Fogado
Light: Framme, Etie, Celine, Alcryst, Hortensia, Veyle
Low Light: Vander
Puny: Seadall

The cast is overall pretty well-balanced.  There's a few characters with unfortunate mixed damage builds which have a place in-game (can hurt both Generals and High Priests by hitting the right defensive stat) but don't translate super-well here, but in general, if you look at the damage chart, most characters with above-average damage have below-average speed, and most characters with above-average speed have below-average damage.  There's a few exceptions like Diamant but he's only a little better at both, compared to older FEs that would have more characters who were just good at everything.

Notable strong duelers:
Pandreo & High Priest Jean have essentially super-regen via spamming Mend staves on themselves which is very powerful against enemies that can't one-round them.  Pandreo is physically frail but fast; Jean is slower but more durable, but similar gameplan afoot here.  I doubt many Middles can break that in a slugfest.
Kagetsu is blazingly fast (+11.2 AS vs. average!), has better-than-coinflip evade, and his damage is still average (rather than outright bad like Lapis or Chloe), which is okay when you're doubling constantly.  His gameplan is a little too simple to do too much damage in Heavy (no range 1-2 weapon hurts) but he'd wreck Middle.
Panette has ungodly curve-breaking damage, but getting doubled by average speed gives her a pretty key weakness that probably keeps her out of Heavy.

Notable scrubs:
Framme isn't that damaging, loses damage on her range-1 counterattacks, and gets 2HKOed by average physical damage.
Etie is doubled by average speed.  She has Mini Bow as an option which is cool compared to archers in older games, but she's also frail, which is a bad combo with being slow.
Celine is at least flexible in choosing between almost average damage that is a bit slow vs. weak damage that is average speed, but her stats aren't in her favor.  Staff proficiency, while great in-game, isn't helpful in the DL.
Alcryst just has the problem that his damage is uninspiring without Luna, and he loses a ton of damage if he goes for Mini Bow.  Faster and tougher than Etie at least.
Hortensia is at least a spoiler!  Godlike resistance means she spoils mages hard.  Great speed too.  Low damage and extreme frailty to physical attacks are a huge problem against random scrubby physical damage dealers though.
Veyle isn't damaging, is a little slower than average, and is physically frail.  Her rare Dragon typing is wasted here.  Magic poison is a cute niche but it'll only help against the most damageless of Light healers.
Vander is just awful. Slow and inaccurate.  At least there's not much downside to using an Iron Greataxe since he shouldn't be doubling very often anyway.
Seadall is our Very Special New Entrant to Puny.  His speed is good, and can even be great! Some evasion too.  Too bad his damage fails forever.  He can't even break defense against even marginally above-average defense.

Emblemology 101

A side topic for character + Emblem pairs.  Originally I was thinking of trying to do this pure "canon" style, but with two Emblems that are already headaches to hand out in Lucina & Leif, and it being difficult to abstract away the different type bonuses emblems had, I elected that the fairest thing would be to just run the full cast back with Emblems.  Some of the Emblem picks are rather arbitrary, but should make for a fairer average if nothing else.

I've also thrown in 3/5 of the DLC characters for fun, since the Four Hounds do kinda have canon Dark Emblems.  Conveniently, there are 36 characters and 12 rankable emblems (sorry 13th Emblem), so most Emblems get exactly 3 users.  Since I threw in some of the DLC crew, 3 emblems get a 4th user, but the effect should be subtle, and I tried not to pick 3 "power" Emblems.  (Arguably I could have kept to having all 36 OG characters be split equally, but that would mean a bit more repetition / dreadful synergy.)  In general, I've tried to pick Emblems that either increase type diversity in users to show off the different variants, or that have some natural synergy, e.g. characters who make use of relevant weapon skills the Emblem teaches.

Engage basics: Characters enter battle with a full Engage meter.  "Sync skills" are always on and don't require being engaged.  If you engage, you get access to the Emblem weapons, "engage skills", and a single-use ultimate move.  Engaged status lasts 4 turns (if you've done the Paralogue and hit Bond Rank 11+) or 3 turns (if you intentionally skipped the Paralogue, or refused to do the B-rank conversation for rank 10).

There is a similar issue to Radiant Dawn Laguz Lord transformations in the DL here: in-game, it's impossible to not be engaged for the first enemy phase if you want to be.  As such, you might see engaging as happening at initiative speed if desired, even if the FE character's turn comes at "average" speed.

Note that some Emblem weapons have the same name as normal weapons, but different stats (e.g. Ike's Hammer, Leif's Killer Axe).  It's not a typo that Ike's Hammer does way more damage than vanilla Hammer.  (And there are several Rapiers, Falchions, etc. floating around too with different stats.)

Emblem Weapon forging: No.  Technically you can do it, but it involves doing crazy challenge maps looped in with the online mode for pitiful rewards.  You have to seriously grind these maps to afford the unique resources Emblem Weapon forges require.

Skill points: Short version: I've allowed a budget of 2500 SP, to be spent only on that Emblem's 2 passive skills.  No cross-Emblem skills allowed (despite Lyn's +2 Speed being only 300 SP and worth way more than some of the crap we've invested in here…).

Long version: The claim for uniqueness of skills is a bit weaker than normal. In game, you can take powerful inheritable skills from other Emblems like Canter, Reposition, or Draconic Hex.  You can also take stat boosters like Lyn's cheap +Speed skills.  We're not allowing that here, but mostly just on uniqueness grounds.  In theory, characters using an Emblem have better access to that Emblem's skills because they'll go up the ranks to qualify to learn them.  In practice, the game showers bond points on you that allows characters to buy access to an Emblem's skills in the Emblem Arena without ever using them in battle, if you're patient enough to watch a meaningless practice battle play out.   Alas.  Maybe a more complicated interp would allow investing in cross-Emblem skills, but I've kept it simple but with a stricter SP budget than normal, which softens the blow somewhat for characters whose emblems' skills aren't worth very much.

Certainly, characters would love to all just buy some friendship with Lyn or Ike in the DL for some cheap Speed and/or Defense if restricted to passive skills, or just outright gank Corrin's Draconic Hex if Sync skills are allowed.

Ultimate attacks: Aka "Engage actions", but the word engage is already super-overloaded.  You can use these exactly once per engage.  None of them allow counterattacks from the target.  None of them can "double", either.  They all have a 100% hit rate and 0% crit rate to my knowledge.

Note that some ultimates force you to use an Emblem weapon, and others do not.

Default weapons & character stats
See the damage chart below for the default weapons picked.

Note that for simplicity, unlike the topic above which use parentheses to distinguish Speed from Attack Speed, this topic just always has base stats vs. stats with Emblem bonuses, passive skill bonuses, and default weapon bonuses.  It might be a bit of a mess at times.  (For example, Diamant & Roy have stat bonuses from Roy, from Rise Above, from Str+2, and from the default weapon Binding Blade all mixed in.)

Default weapons are also a bit of black magic - like does Timerra want a Silver Lance +3 to maximize her speed, Ragnell for range 1-2 and +5 Defense but a speed hit, or Urvan for max damage and +3 Res but a catastrophic speed hit?  Just had to make some calls.

Enemy stats: I have assumed a somewhat more badass enemy to compare against vs. the normal topic for PC durabilities & evasion - 49 Attack (rather than 46), 145 Hit (rather than 140), and 16 Dodge (rather than 15).  Durabilities for very high Def/Res characters are calculated a little differently: they assume a hit of 39, 49, and 59 attack averaged together.  For Defense/Resistance values <= 39, the result is the same, but this makes characters go invulnerable a little slower at high values.

Enemy Defense:   25
Enemy Resistance:   25
Enemy Luck:     16
Enemy Hit:   145
Enemy Avoid:   50

Emblem Averages
Modified values listed first; base values are in {braces}.

The no-Emblem / passive skills / weapon buff averages are including the 3 DLC characters who aren't in the above average list, if you're curious for why the base averages are mildly different than above.

  • HP: 56.5 {51.7}
  • Strength: 25.6 {23.6}
  • Magic: 17 {15.1}
  • Dexterity: 29.2 {27.1}
  • Speed: 29.3 {27.1} (Attack Speed: 28.6)
  • Defense: 25.1 {22.7}
  • Resistance:  25.2 {22.1}
  • Luck: 23.3 {19.1}
  • Build:  11.7 {10.9}
  • Move: 5.8 {5.3}
  • Avoid: 71.7
  • Evasion (against an enemy with 145 Hit): 27.4%
  • Damage (no Smash weapons, w/ Accuracy, ignoring ultimates): 25.4
  • Damage 3-turn (no Smash weapons, w/ Accuracy, including ultimates): 82.4 (One-turn equivalent: 27.4; 2.5 killpoint: 68.7)

I am not doing a full damage average with Smash weapons (yet?).  Since some Emblem weapons are extremely badass (e.g. Binding Blade, Urvan), the damage gain vs. regular is probably less (but then again, Lodestar Rush's damage goes up some).  In the no-Emblems numbers, it was +3.5 damage for Smash weapons, and +8.2 on kill point.  If we assume something similar as a wild-ass guess, we'd end up with a killpoint of around 72-76 for a Smash weapons with Emblems average.

If Diamant is Engaged, but isn't using the Binding Blade, he loses 5 Def/Res and his durability drops to:

Flame terrain: Take 10 damage at the start of turn (can't be fatal).  More expensive to move through. Doesn't affect flyers.  Not all terrain can be set ablaze, but if it can't be, it's probably (always?) flyer-only or impassable terrain anyway.

Inherited skills: Strength +2, Sword Power 1 (Atk+2, Avo-10 with a sword)

Sync skills:
* Advance: Take an extra step if doing a basic attack on a unit 2 squares away (read: +1 Move when using a melee weapon).

Engage skills:
* Rise Above: +5 Levels while engaged. (Increases HP, Str, Mag, Dex, Spd, Def, Res, and Lck.  Seems to take fixed growths with rounding up, e.g. a growth of 1.5 gives +2.  Allows you to go over stat caps.  For Diamant, this is 5/3/1/2/3/3/1/2.)

Personal skill: Expertise, Class skill: Self-Healing, Weapon proficiency: B Tome, S Staff, B Arts

Above stats are with Rise Above active. 
If Jean is Engaged, and equips the Binding Blade for pure durability, he gains 5 Def/Res and his durability rises to:
* 0.97 PDurability, 8.59 MDurability
If Engage status times out, Jean's normal stats become:
* 42 (52) HP, 15 (23) Str, 33 Mag, 25 Dex, 25 Spd, 19 Def, 39 (42) Res, 30 Lck, 6 Bld, 5 Move

Binding Blade: 15 damage (7% Critical), 116 Hit, 26 AS, ~3% Evasion Range: 1~2.  Def/Res+5.

Self-Healing: Unit can target itself with healing staves.

In practice, Jean will likely enter combat with 4 Heal or Mend Staves and just 1 weapon in Elfire, Elsurge, or Silver-Spirit Art is appropriate.  Heal staff has 25 uses if all Jean cares about is reactivating Hold Out for +5 uses vs Mend.

Ultimate attack
Blazing Lion: Attack adjacent foe and an area 3 spaces wide. Target area and the 2 rows beyond it are set on fire. Sword only.

1.03 PCHP, 1.24 PDurability, 0.63 MDurability, 83 Raw Avoid, 83 Raw Avoid, See Below Evasion
Personal skill: Not *Quite*, Class skill: Pass, Weapon proficiency: S Dagger

Zelkov's evasion starts with 68 raw Avoid from Speed / Luck.  He additionally may layer on Not *Quite* (enemy phase only), Knife Precision, and Adaptable's Covert bonus:
* While Engaged with Adaptable and a dagger: 68% Evasion (32.3% vs. counterattacks)
* While not Engaged with a dagger: 47.1% Evasion (32.3% vs. counterattacks)
* While Engaged with Adaptable and with some other weapon (perhaps because the AI forcibly switched to it): 53% Evasion (12.8% vs. counterattacks)

If Arms Shield++ is triggering and reducing damage from weapon triangle advantage, Zelkov's durability rises to 1.89 PDur / 0.77 MDur.  (Reminder here that Daggers don't have triangle advantage over anything.)

Master Lance: 14 damage (2x hits of 7), 77 Hit (87.2% accuracy). Range: 1~2.  If user initiates combat, attacks twice.
Light Brand: -4 {0} damage (20% Critical), 97 Hit (99.4% accuracy). Range: 1~2.  Magic weapon.  Lck+10. (Evasion rises mildly.)

Not *Quite*: If foe initiates combat, inflicts Hit-10 on that foe during combat. (Baked into evasion score, evasion falls to 18.6% vs. counterattacks.)

Ultimate attack
Quadruple Hit: Attack once each with Leif's weapons: Light Brand, Master Lance, Killer Axe, and the Master Bow.  (No, you can't use the Master Bow any other time.) [Covert] Foes may drop 1,000G. Trigger %=Lck (13%).
* 24 (=0+7+11+6) damage.  (All physical since the Light Brand sucks with Zelkov's poor Mag; will deal mildly more damage when the Master Bow hits a weakness on a flyer.)

Inherited skills: Build +3, Knife Precision 5 (Hit/Avo+15 with a knife)

Sync skills:
* Vantage++: If unit's HP is 75% or less and foe initiates combat, unit can counter before foe’s first attack.
* Arms Shield++: When unit has weapon triangle advantage, unit takes 7 less damage.

Engage skills:
* Adaptable: If foe initiates combat, unit counters with the """""best"""""" weapon available.  Mostly the AI seems to pick a weapon that has the range to counterattack and that has triangle advantage to take advantage of Arms Shield, even when this is extremely dumb because a better plan would be to kill the enemy first with Vantage++ and thus not have to worry about Arms Shield.  Allegedly it also might care about type effectiveness.  You can't turn this off short of refusing to Engage.  [Covert] Avo+20 (during enemy phase)

Emblem damage averages
Three-turn damage average, using 2x regular attacks + ultimate when relevant.  (Some characters damage will be slightly higher in practice due to flame terrain, Draconic Hex, etc.)
(EDIT: If you saw an old version of this, Marth users didn't have Divine Speed, Jean was using Elfire rather than Silver-Spirit Art, and Pandreo was using Elfire rather than the range-extended Elsurge thanks to Thrysus.  Fixed now.)

Whew!  Okay, finally added in the with Emblems side topic, only ~18 months late.  It was definitely more work than the original topic.

Note that base Madeline, Gregory, & Zelestria of the DLC Four Winds were edited in awhile ago above for those curious (but still aren't in the no-Emblems no-DLC average), along with some very cursory notes on boss Marni.  Maybe I'll add Nel & Nil at some point too, just lazy since they have their own unique weapon type.


Preliminary DL ranking thoughts: Characters + Emblems
Just listing the plotty claims here.

High Heavy: Alear & Marth
Heavy: Madeline & Roy, Timerra & Ike
Low Heavy: Diamant & Roy, Rosado & Eirika
High Middle: Veyle & Marth, Zelestria & Sigurd, Ivy & Lyn
Middle: (N/A)
Low Middle: Alfred & Sigurd, Mauvier & Micaiah
High Light: Céline & Celica, Hortensia & Byleth
Light: Yunaka & Micaiah, Gregory & Celica
Low Light: Seadall & Corrin


More detailed thoughts below.

Most of the cast
As a reminder, Ultimate attacks have 100% Hit and can't be counterattacked.  Won't repeat this for everyone, but this gives a lot of the cast some game against stuff like perfect evasion or counterattacks, if only for a single hit.  (But they can't double, so sometimes there's a damage loss here if the unit was doubling.)

Also, assume any of the cast good enough to get to the upper echelons of Heavy will have some sort of "loses to good status" disclaimer, as most of the status blocking in Engage isn't very relevant to the nonsense turn 1 I-win status in Heavy.


Marth
Marth users get lots of offense & dodginess, but no durability improvements, so tend to be a bit papery if they actually get hit.  If they do eat a hit but it isn't fatal, Unyielding Spirit's healing can potentially just roll it back, and the 2 dragons heal a bit when attacking anyway.  Rapier offers an additional +20 Avo on top of that, although damage starts getting a bit sus…  although Rapier also lays the hurt on vs. Armored & Cavalry units. 

* Alear+M is just a really scary High Heavy dodgetank.  Can pulse their damage with Lodestar Rush and otherwise put a lot of pressure on via doubling while dodging everything (47.5 damage when doubling with a SS +3); you want ITE or status ailments that don't check evasion to handle them.  Wille Glanz is still there if he wants range 2 as well.
* Veyle+M.. well, Veyle really has no synergy with Marth (Daggers & Tomes don't break anything for Break Defenses, she can't always have Sword Avo up), and her meh damage means that healers can theoretically just outwait her Engage which will forcibly drop her swords & Sword Avo skill.  I guess if she poisons a stalling foe it'll buff the turn 4 Lodestar Rush?  Still, despite being papery, the evasion + regen is way too much for Light, and frankly maybe even for Middle. Somewhere on the Middle / Heavy border.
* Lapis+M is a fun pick whose evasion is even better than Alear's (101% evade with a Rapier!!1!), although note that some enemies with cracked out Hit higher than 145 do exist in-game.  Functions pretty similar to Alear in Heavy, just with slightly worse damage and no healing but even MORE speed.


Sigurd
Sigurd users don't get a very useful ultimate (occasionally helpful to turn off counterattacks), but that Hit boost synergizes well with the inaccurate Brave Lance.  You might spot them more Momentum damage on turn 1 if you're feeling nice and let them barrel in from 10+ squares away.

* Alfred+S is a passable slugger, but he's doubled by average.  His decent phys durability and Silver Lance counters will still get him some victories, and he has Tyrfing as an emergency anti-mage option (but the damage cut means it's still a bit sus).  Somewhere on the Light / Middle border, gets pasted by mages but usual FE counterattacks being good in Light slugfests comment here.
* Zelestria+S just has good all-around stats and manages to make a mixed damage build work, although in practice she's mostly a mage.  But she doubles average and can blast fools with Bolganone and isn't completely made of paper.  High Middle?
* Louis+S takes advantage of Louis's good Str and Sigurd's Hit +X to really, really hurt people with a Brave Lance, while sitting back on his immense General durability.  If you use Movement as a tiebreak for average speed, this is also a General with 10 Move.  Just hopes there aren't any mages out there since everyone doubles him.  Middle.


Celica
Despite having a Str boost in her kit, Celica is the most locked-down Emblem to Mystical types in the DL, having lots of boosts that only apply to Mystic units and very little for other class types.  Echo can be cute in-game if you have lots of chain attacks set up, but is just kind of a mild damage increase and that's it in a duel.  Tome Precision isn't really reliable in-game for making a dodgy unit, but every bit helps.

* Céline+C combines average damage with average speed and below-average durability.  Her damage does improve vs. the slow as then she can double with Echo'd Bolganone, and she is a bit dodgy thanks to Tome Precision?  So she has a few tricks, if she isn't quickly put away by a fast thief or the like.  High Light?
* Gregory+C has horrible phys durability and 18 Speed, so most physical units can easily double and kill him.  If you don't kill him fast though, his Echo'd Bolganones are 0.73 PCHP, so he hurts a lot.  (Spot him Nova from his evil boss form if you're feeling nice!)
* Lindon+C is kind of in-between the above two, being a little slower than Céline but much more magically durable, and also packing a funny Elsurge +3 27% Crit game if he's in a stall-off.  Probably another Light.


Micaiah
How the mighty have fallen.  Micaiah is extremely good in-game, and extremely bad in the DL.  An ultimate that reads "reduce your HP to 1" in a duel is not a good start, and most of her effects are niche-to-useless.  Investing in Resistance +5 and her natural Res buff makes her users a bit magic-tanky, at least.

* Yunaka+M is not much of a mage, so her spells are largely wasted except when facing cav/armor targets for Thani.  The attack speed average has risen such that she is only +4.4 Spd over average…  barely missing the threshold to double average, in other words.  At least her damage will improve a bit after her foe is poisoned?  Light.
* Mauvier+M is more of a genuine magic tank, and mixed damage lets him exploit his foe's weakest defense.  He might actually be able to make use of Nosferatu's drain game vs. the undamaging or those of low magic defense.  Low Middle.
* Bunet+M..  Well Bunet drew the short straw here, nobody wanted to be Micaiah victim #3.  In-game non-mages are a decent Micaiah target due to giving them Staves for utility, but he really doesn't get anything from Micaiah other than the improved magic durability for a duel, while all the other averages have gone way up.  High Light.


Roy
Roy just creates general stat-monsters and the extremely handy Hold Out allowing a free extra turn if you'd be about to die.  The Binding Blade is also one of the best Emblem weapons - great tankiness AND range 1-2.  The only problem is that Roy doesn't really provide a way to pulse damage other than the +10 damage from Flame Terrain of Blazing Lion, which is only helpful if not doubling and not THAT big anyway.  So healers can potentially stall their way through 4 Engage turns, then handle the untransformed unit that just lost the Binding Blade.

* Diamant+R has a similar problem to Yunaka in that the attack speed average crept up high enough such that Diamant barely doesn't double average anymore at 32 AS.  He's still extremely solid with range 1-2 counterattacks and lots of durability and Hold Out, just doesn't like stallers or healers very much.  Low Heavy?
* Madeline+R theoretically balances her awesome Strength / Defense with terrible Dex (she deals more damage on average with an accurate Iron Axe than a Silver Axe!), except whoops the Binding Blade randomly has  95 Hit (much better than Wille Glanz, Ragnell, etc.).  So she's just monstrously unkillable with physical damage, and even mages have trouble because of her free Hold Out turn and counterattacks.  Heavy.
* Kagetsu+R is just usual Kagetsu shenanigans of doubling everyone except now he does it at range 1-2 and with Hold Out / BB's defensive buffs.  He can farm a Killing Edge crit pretty quick, too.  Heavy.
* Jean+R is more of a fun pick.  His Strength buffs make his punch-out plan surprisingly decent, a rarity, but that's not the real appeal.  No, Hold Out + Self Healing is basically checkmate to quite a number of opponents who now have to outwait 80 Mend Staff charges (or 100 Heal staff charges!) to kill Jean.  Classic anti-healer tech like critical hits don't work; you really need to get in a double-action on Jean to beat this.  Or deadly status or Silence, of course.  High Heavy.


Leif
Leif users get a big damage-dealing ultimate, which is always nice for the DL.  On the downside, Adaptable is finicky and can be baited into switching to the Light Brand (terrible for non-mages) by anyone who can attack with an axe.  Leif teaches Knife Precision for building a dagger dodge-tank, but then Adaptable won't switch to knives since they never have triangle advantage.  Frustrating.  Oh well, at least Zelkov / Merrin can just refuse to Engage Leif until they're ready to Quadruple hit for the win.

* Zelkov is very dodgy and surprisingly durable, but only mildly quick rather than actually fast, and undamaging.  Middle.
* Panette utilizes her murderous Strength to just OHKO average durability with a 1.09 PCHP Quadruple Hit with 100% accuracy.  She's durable enough to not be trivial to one-round either.  Occasionally her Vantage+ game will come into play against durable foes who can't one-round her.  Heavy.
* Merrin is dodgy like Zelkov, and trades his durability for being notably faster including doubling average.  But like him she's on the undamaging side.  Middle.


Lucina
Lucina users aren't very impressive.  (Act shocked, the Emblem based around team-up attacks translates poorly to a duel.)  The good news is that Bow Agility makes them dodgy (I gave her to archers), the bad news is that Lucina doesn't really help their damage much while the damage average of other Emblem-users has risen. At least there's some usual cavalry / armor / dragon spoiling with weakness hitting weapons?  Parthia in theory offers some extra magic durability, but it's so heavy that the simple Silver Bow is often better.

* Etie+L manages to hustle it out to average speed thanks to Lucina's speed boost!  That will help a lot in Light slugfests, since at least Etie deals damage and now has a bit of evasion.  Which she will also need given her frailty.
* Alcryst+L - for someone with low base damage, he makes it work.  He doubles average and has a 48% chance of Luna to fix his damage woes, and coinflip evade.  Probably a Low Middle, somehow.
* Anna+L is pretty similar to Alcryst except trading Luna for the option of either Silver or Radiant Bow, depending on her enemy's worse defensive stat.  Probably a losing trade, High Light?


Lyn
Lyn is amazing in-game, where it's usually harder to let a unit double than it is to let them 2HKO.  She's a bit shy on damage in the DL, but more speed is always appreciated.  If you're feeling nice, you might allow Lyn-users to have a "turn 0" initiative round thanks to Astra Storm's immense range.  (For all that some units will be able to heal/buff on that turn 0 anyway to undo it…  oh well.)  Call Doubles is also basically "free" vs. melee opponents, as even if they hack one double down, it means that the Lyn user will get 3 chain attacks their next attacks to increase their damage.  Not a wasted turn vs. ranged opponents though, as FE characters still have counterattacks and it can set up a murderous turn 2.  (Although in fairness, multitarget effects are way more common in the DL than in Fire Emblem, and those hose the 1-HP doubles decently well..  although the doubles can still be dodgy.)

* Ivy+L fixes Ivy's weak speed, so now she's doubling average with her strong magic and putting on a lot of pressure with her chain-attacking friends.  She's still not that dodgy or durable, so powerful physical ranged units can still mess her up, but.. still pretty good.  And her Mulagir game isn't totally dead if she's facing another flyer.  Probably High Middle.
* Fogado+L has absolutely cracked speed with Mulagir (50 Spd!  vs. a 28.6 average!) but is quite undamaging, but that's where the 68% evade comes in.  And the Chain Attacks from doubles, as those deal fixed damage based on max HP.  Honestly might make Low Heavy anyway, despite getting spoiled some by multitarget damage as he really likes the clones saving his offense.
* Goldmary+L is usually a tank, but what's better than a tank?  A tank with lots of speed, that's what.  She's very dodgy AND can take a hit.  Another Low Heavy.


Ike
Ike is how you make any ol' unit into a mega-tank.  There are checks for this in-game, but they're largely chain attacks - in a strict duel, an Ike user with Resolve+ and Urvan / Ragnell is indeed a tough target to take down.  (Maddening Sombron has 58 Attack, so yeah, getting to 50-60 Defense tends to make most stuff ping.)  Urvan is unusually accurate for an Axe, too (90 Hit!) making it a great weapon if you can heft it.  But yeah, no Speed boost means Ike users aren't necessarily great at putting on fast pressure, but good luck actually killing them.  I wouldn't really respect Great Aether too much except vs. bosses or notably poor mobility PCs, though.

* Timerra+I actually has decent speed as long as she chucks Ike's heavier stuff, which is helpful.  In theory, healers can stall out Timerra's Engage status, but that risks getting bopped on the head with a Darude - Sandstorm.  And vs. the slow (or the very fast), Timerra can safely opt for Ragnell or Urvan without losing much.  Fears really powerful mages, but still a Heavy.
* Boucheron+I is a bit slower than Timerra, but has great Build so can just always go at it with Urvan / Ragnell.  But no threat of damage pulsing unless he opts for a Killer Axe.  Ultimately pretty similar, maybe a tad worse.  Low Heavy?
* Jade+I is already a tank and Ike means she just stops taking phys damage.  Mages have more game, but even they will have trouble chewing through her still-excellent magic defense while getting hit with a 2HKOing Urvan.  Maybe better than Timerra, but another Heavy.
* Saphir+I is slower than Boucheron, but tankier.  Probably another Low Heavy.


Byleth
While not messed with as badly as Lucina, Byleth's busted 4-way dance is off the table in a duel, and Instruct is wasted as well.  Vajra-Mushti is quite niche, mostly coming up as a way to punch out high-Def, low-Res units in the DL.  Sword of the Creator is theoretically okay, but we didn't really draw high-offense units here to exploit it properly.  And Byleth's passive skills to learn aren't very strong.  The one cool thing is that by investing hugely into Luck, Divine Pulse+ means Byleth users either almost never miss, or simply can't miss.

* Hortensia+B is very dodgy with all that Luck she invested in (56% evade!) and doubles average..  but still has 0.40 PDur, meaning she gets OHKO'd left and right if a physical attack does connect.  And her damage isn't that special unless fighting a dragon (as you learn to your sorrow if you move Alear in too close vs. enemy Hortensia in C10).  High Light, spoils mages, the inaccurate, and Lights who lack average physical damage.
* Framme+B theoretically has Arts synergy as a Martial Master, except that Arts Focus isn't even that useful.  Despite the Sword of the Creator dealing a little less damage on player phase, she will probably prefer it in slugfests due to range 1-2 counterattacks (reminder that Arts only counterattack once so lose half their damage on enemy phase).  While her evasion is okay (~30%), probably still stuck in Light, if a better one than her Emblem-less form.
* Vander+B - well, this is not a troll pick, as if you're still using Vander late-game, making him a mobile Dance of the Goddess bot is probably the best choice.  Also, he's usually compromised by both low Build and low Dex for lategame, but Byleth's Cavalry weapon Aredhbar is actually pretty decent while only having 9 Weight (21 mt when attacking!), and Divine Pulse+ fixes his horrible accuracy.  Sure, he's still slow, but he's probably just a normal Light rather than a Low Light.
* Pandreo+B gets to use the Thrysus, famous for breaking the balance of Three Houses.  +2 Range is a little less cool in the DL, but it's still handy as it basically means Pandreo should dodge most counterattacks.  He also gets a mild damage pump from being able to use Elsurge at range.  All of that durability boosting from the Ikes & Roys of the world have made him easier to OHKO physically than before, but he's also dodgier now thanks to all the Luck he gets.  Probably stays in Low Heavy off the Self-Healing & counterattacking game.


Corrin
Corrin is one of the three power Emblems in-game, as the nature of Fire Emblem makes Don't Move off Dreadful Aura one of the most powerful effects you can offer - especially when it's splashed around to multiple targets!  In the DL, this allows units with a ranged attack (cough, cough, NOT DANCERS) to mock range-1 only opponents.  Corrin also provides a boatload of HP for surviving long enough to set up some Dreadful Aura + Draconic Hex nonsense.

* Seadall+C ..  leaving Corrin on Seadall is a crime.  Just a horrendous waste.  But okay, if we do it anyway, the good news is that Seadall manages to actually hustle out some damage, unlike the "base" topic where he struggled to break defense.  And Draconic Hex actually kinda plays nicely with Arts - if he opens with a Corrin Ultimate, the Speed debuff from Hex will let him double average, and the -3 Def can potentially turn into +12 damage if he's quadding, making his damage merely bad (a 4-round KO) rather than awful!  This gets him up to Low Light, rather than Puny.  Hooray.
* Clanne+C can use some combination of Chaos Style and Draconic Hex to hustle out doubles which fix his somewhat uninspiring base damage.  Sword Focus can make his sword hits very accurate in exchange for risking more enemy crit chance, a bad trade in-game but maybe occasionally relevant in the DL vs. dodgetanks.  Since he now sports the "dunk on the helpless range 1 unit" game, he's probably High Middle, but healers and ranged units can still handle him.
* Citrinne+C is all-in on the range-1 spoiling plan.  Opponents who have 2 range will double her slow & frail side without much trouble and probably kill her even through the Corrin HP boost.  Good magic durability though means she can fight mages with the range-1 units.  Low Middle?


Eirika + Ephraim
Eirika is absolutely one of the Emblems that scales the best in-game.  Despite having no natural Str boost, enemy defense is quite high at endgame.  As this stat topic assumes 25 enemy Defense, that means Eclipse Brace is offering +8 damage flat every hit. Eirika users can definitely make the tanks of the DL feel a lot frailer than they're used to.  And a big damage ultimate is always appreciated.  She also makes lance-users nice & dodgy.  The crazy thing is that she's still arguably underrated, as Sieglinde's Corrupted effectiveness in-game is relevant against every single non-boss enemy from C19 or so onward, but unlikely to come up much in the DL.

*Rosado+E is very tricky to deal with.  He's very dodgy thanks to Lance Agility, Eph's Solar Brace helps heal off any damage he does take, and his Twin Strike is a lot of damage.  He can sort of heal-lock a lot of healers too via simply not immediately Engaging - you can't outwait an Engaged status if he isn't Engaged, so he can just serve with Silver Lance while threatening to Engage & immediately Twin Strike if Silver Lance + Twin Strike is a KO (it's 86 damage, so likely, or 91 if he does just Engage first).  Low Heavy, maybe even just straight Heavy.
* Chloé+E's ultimates are a bit less devastating than Rosado's, but she's much faster, making her both dodgier and getting her more regular ol' doubles.  Her magic is also a bit better, although her Flame Lance game probably won't come up very often.  Another Low Heavy.
* Amber+E is just funny if you like watching people get run over by a llama.  E+E's cavalry bonus is "Eph inflicts gratuitous overkill" and Amber has high Strength, so yeah, he just absolutely pastes you if he gets a turn with 1.22 PCHP damage.  Stopping him from getting that turn is not trivial either, as his phys durability is fine and he sports some Lance Agility evade.  Possibly a High Heavy?  Who knew his secret power of friendship with Ephraim.
