Valkyria Chronicles

[Pyro]

Valkyria Chronicles:

-VC's combat is phase-based like FE/Disgaea, but with a few quirks. For starters, you have a set number of Command Points. Command Points are basically the number of actions your collective squad can take. Selecting a unit expends one CP and puts the game into the perspective of a third person shooter centered on that character. That character is then free to move about and take an action. Movement is limited to a set amount, which isn't relevant here. What IS relevant is that if you end the round before expending all of your CP, all of that CP carries over to the next round (up to a maximum of 20). So if you start a mission with 5 CP, and only take one action before ending your turn, the next turn you'll have 4+5 = 9 CP. There are also 3 units that add a CP to the gauge whenever they are used and alive on the map. Alicia, Rosie, and Largo all add one CP/round to the overall meter. For the purposes of the DL, I am assuming that characters have 1 CP per 'turn', that they can store them up as in-game (so they can opt not to act to focus all their actions into one turn), and that the three units who grant +1 CP have that trait in the DL and so get 2 CP a turn instead of 1. This reflects the in-game advantage they bring to the team. While it IS possible to use that CP on another character, the fact that it comes from them is indisputable.

- Class Level taken at 450000 exp expended. Note that VC's system has you expend experience selectively to level an entire class up instead of individual units (so everyone in that class will level up) 450,000 exp is a rather large amount,  but it's the level several learn their last skills, and it is doable for 2-3 classes if you relatively focus on them. More exactly, the levels are  Scout (20), Shocktrooper (18), Lancer (19), Engineer (20), Sniper (19). Changing the levels around modifies very little, as damage is not dependent on it and HP modifications are of minimal consequence.

- Scouts, Shocktroopers, and Engineers counter attacks with their guns. They will not counter tanks (as it would be pointless, bullets can't hurt them), but will counter things that can be damaged, even if they hit an area (flamethrowers, notably)

- At the beginning of their turns, Personnel units regain 20% of their maximum HP.

- All PCs have 6-8 "Potentials" that activate randomly and give different boons in certain conditions. The activation rate on most of these is really quite bad, so I'm not worrying much about them now.

- In-game, when a character is taking an action they will come under "crossfire" from enemies they move by. Crossfire is basically a free attack against someone moving within your firing range. I've ignored this for DL purposes. Note that the PCs get this against enemies too.

- The game features an evade system where a character will hit the ground rapidly before an attack connects, nullifying it. The evade numbers listed in this topic are grabbed from numbers quoted from the VC Guide posted on GameFAQs. They seemed accurate, with some exceptions (Rosie in particular, some of the Scouts aren't as dodgie as you'd think although Alicia IS). In the case of attacks that hit even though the character drops to the ground, the incoming attack is taken at 30% attack power *before defense*. This nullifies everything except the high attack power Flamethrower/Explosive attacks, which are generally reduced to about quarter damage. How you take this is up to you. I take it for all attacks that are not explicitly ITE, with MT attacks triggering the damage reduction and tinking normally.

-Weapons are taken as best factory manufactured right before the final boss. The best pure damage weapons were taken. Note that this is best damage vs. Personnel. Also note that some equipment has a limited number of uses. All of these types of equipment regain 1 use per phase, so it doesn't really matter too much. I will list in parenthesis how many the class starts with. For reference:

Gallian-A20 Rifle: 42 attack, 7 shots (Scouts/Engineers)
B-Type Grenade M5: 400 attack (1 ammo Scouts/Shocktroopers, 3 ammo Engineers)
Mags M30 Machine Gun: 37 attack, 20 shots (Shocktroopers)
(optional Machine gun: MAJ-X M20: 30 attack, 20 bullets, inflicts Attack Down on enemies. Attack Down halves attack before defense is accounted for, so against Shocktroopers that means stuff will just go *tink*)
FF-8 Flamethrower: 450 attack.
Lancaar-SH M12 Mortar Lance: 450 attack. (3 ammo, Lancers)
Brondel M20 Sniper Rifle: 160 attack (Snipers)

- Damage taken as body shots against 12 enemy defense. Headshots do more damage, but they make the difference in damage between classes negligible in-game (i.e. anything that can be headshot is dead no matter who hits them). In situations where that is not the case (crouched enemies, stationary stuff, bosses), then the damages listed here are the most accurate for who is good at actually hurting things. Note that Shocktroopers were taken as getting 15 hits with their machine guns (excepting Rosie). Headshots would likely make Snipers/Scouts/Engineers better and Lancers/Shocktroopers worse.

- It should be noted that Lancers heavily resist "explosion typed" damage.

- I'll give the details on just Alicia/Rosie/Largo for now, but give stats for everyone. Next to defense I will list the durability modifier. This is calculated based on what their defense does compared to average defense against an attack of 7 shots that deals 40% damage (131).  Higher = better. Durability is just HP divided by average HP times that modifier. Again higher = better.

- averages up top:
HP: 326
Defense: 14.6
Damage: 407 (1019 kill point)
Evade: 35

- SQUAD 7, MOVE OUT!




Alicia:
Scout

HP: 345
Defense: 10 ( .8 damage modifier)
Durability: 85%
Evade: 77% (O_o) (hard tested on 125 attacks)

Moveset:
Gallian-A20: 210 damage over 7 hits.
B-Type Grenade M5 (1): 360 damage to a small area. Does not trigger counters even in VC.
Ragnaid (S): 100 healing.

Best damage per turn: Grenade + Rifle for 570 damage.

Potentials:
Country Bred: Bare dirt leads to a single increase in accuracy rank X% of the time (DL useless)
Maternal: Being near someone she likes boosts her stats X% of the time. (DL useless)
Mysterious Body: After taking an action on her turn, she has an X% chance of restoring all HP.
******** : If Alicia is dropped below 50% HP via crossfire, all her stats are significnatly boosted. X% activation rate every time she is struck by crossfire below 50% HP.
Undodgeable Shot: Alicia's attacks have an X% chance of ignoring the target's evade.
First Aid Boost: Alicia has an X% chance of restoring 200 HP instead of 100 when using Ragnaid.
Resist Crossfire: X% chance that when Alicia comes under Crossfire she will receive a significant defense boost against it.
Double Movement: X% chance that Alicia will be able to move her full range again after moving as much as she normally could in a round.

Comments: Alicia makes high-end FE'rs want that evade. Low Heavy. She has troubles storing up actions for huge damage thanks to only getting one grenade per turn and she's kinda frail, but the evade is awesome and she can heal on up if she's unlucky enough to get whacked (while still countering). Low 2HKO helps too, as do counters.




Rosie
Shocktrooper

HP: 384
Defense: 20 (1.4 modifier)
Durability: 165%
Evade: 50% ***** (The guide apparently says 32%, but this number was acquired over a large number of trials, and the guide was also wrong about Rosie's accuracy)

Moveset:
Mags M30: 500 damage over 20 shots *Rosie's aiming recticle is much smaller than the other Shocktroopers, so she can reliably get in 20 hits instead of the usual 15*
(Optional: MAJ-X M20: 360 damage over 20 shots. Inflicts Attack Down.)
FF8 Flamethrower: 438 damage to an area in front of Rosie.
B-Type Grenade M5 (1): 360 explosion damage to an area.
Ragnaid (S): 100 healing.

Best damage in one turn: Mags M30*2 for 1000 damage.

Potentials:
Desert Allergy: X% chance that when in a desert she will gradually lose HP.
Strong-Willed: X% chance of resisting crossfire upon encountering it.
Big Sister: X% chance of stat ups when near shocktroopers (defense, Damage)
***********
Undercover Fire: X% chance of attack power being boosted when crouching.
Undodgeable Shot: X% chance of an attack ignoring the target's evade.
Dud Mine: X% chance of a mine not going off after she trips it.
Double Attack: X% chance of following up an attack with another one immediately thereafter (before an enemy would counter if they can).

Comments: Rosie is a badass slugger. Really badass. And then she inflicts Attack Down and you are screwed. Heavy.




Largo:
Lancer

HP: 477
Defense: 19 (1.31 modifier)
Durability: 191%
Evade: 22.6%

Moveset:
Lancaar-SH M12 Mortar Lance (3): 438 explosion damage to an area.
Ragnaid (S): 100 healing.

Best damage in one turn: Two Mortars for 872 damage.

Potentials:
Child of Nature: Standing on a paved road has an X% chance of lowering defense.
Loyal Teammate: beng near allies has an X% chance of boosting stats.
Big Hearted: X% chance of reviving after being reduced to 0 HP (never saw it)
Veggie-Maniac: X% chance of all stats up when he stands on normal ground.
First Aid Boost: X% chance of Ragnaid healing 200 HP instead of 100.
Tank Slayer: When near two or more tanks, X% chance of boosting attack parameters.
Dbl. Tank Damage: X% chance of an attack dealing damage to both a tank's body and treads.

Comments: Largo is an enormous physical tank, and god help you if you rely on explosion damage against him. That said, because he expends two lance shots a round and only regains one, he can only fire one per turn starting on his third turn. Of course he can store up a lance on round 1 to unleash 3 the next turn in hopes of OHKOing healers, and he can use Ragnaid after he starts relying on 1 lance/round. Heavy.


Other Scouts/Shocktroopers/Lancers are similar to the above three, but with only one action a turn. I'll list the Class movesets here:

Scout:
Gallian-A20: 210 damage over 7 hits.
B-Type Grenade M5 (1): 360 damage to a small area. Does not trigger counters even in VC.
Ragnaid (S): 100 healing.

... they rely on evade to get them by if at all.

Shocktrooper:
Mags M30: 375 damage over 20 shots
(Optional: MAJ-X M20: 300 damage over 20 shots. Inflicts Attack Down.)
FF8 Flamethrower: 438 damage to an area in front of the Shocktrooper.
B-Type Grenade M5 (1): 360 explosion damage to an area.
Ragnaid (S): 100 healing.

... Good sluggers with that attack down.

Lancer:
Lancaar-SH M12 Mortar Lance (3): 438 explosion damage to an area.
Ragnaid (S): 100 healing.

... Good durability on these guys.

Engineer:
Gallian-A10: 210 damage over 7 shots.
Type Grenade M5 (3): 360 explosion damage to an area.
Ragnaid (L): 250 healing.
Engineer's Tool: Heals tanks for 1000.

... That healing is full for Engineers.

Sniper:
Brondel M20: 148 damage. Very long range.
Ragnaid (S): 100 healing.

... EPIC FAIL.

By popular demand:

Edelweiss: (Welkin Gunther)
Class: TANK

HP: 3000 (9.14x PCHP)
Defense: 595 (modifier: even the paint doesn't get scratched)
Durability: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA

Immune to status

Moveset:
Anti-Armor Shells: 1600 attack power vs. tanks (288 damage vs. Personnel)
Mortar (1): 488 damage vs. personnel
Machine Gun: 336 damage over 7 hits.

Comments: Not killable in the DL except by things that explicitly hit tank/armored weakness REALLY REALLY FUCKING HARD. Perfect defense on that HP isn't very fair. Godlike.


Shamrock: (Zaka)
Class: TANK!

HP: 2400 (7.32x)
Defense: 440 (modifier: *tink*)
Durability: Pshhhh.

Immune to status

Movelist:
(Ragnite Rounds: 1300 vs. armored (218 damage vs. Personnel) ) Can opt for this instead of Gatling
Gatling Gun: 700 damage over 25 hits (840 max over 30 hits).
(Flamethrower: 568 damage to an area in front of Shamrock. Can opt for this instead of Gatling
(Mortar (2): 268 damage to an area.) Can opt for this instead of Gatling
Machine Gun: 252 damage over 7 hits.

Comments: Less durable Edelweiss. More damaging. Probably a winning trade in the DL. Perfect defense crazy HP, etc... Godlike.

[Hyper Inferno]

How about some stats for DLC/boss Selvaria or no tank Welkin? Scout Welkin would almost be interesting if he could give himself orders, but no... they make you do the EX Hard mode missions without them. May be interesting if you gave each class their own set of orders or something, although CP limitations kinda screw with that.

Some minor nitpicks, I think the accuracy on Engineers is too low to really give them credit for reliably getting all 7 shots in with the A-20. If you fire at someone's feet, and they duck, you still only deal 1/4th damage. This is really noticeable against the enemy aces in game.

With 20% regen, Alicia could potentially play an incredibly nasty stall game by firing at her opponent, then running as far away as possible. Scout movement is pretty insane, and if double movement triggers, that's like the entire Barious Desert map in terms of distance. Heal with Ragnaid/Mysterious body, and then fire and run again.

Crossfire is one of the more unique things of VC which I would try to include. Like, melee opponents would have to run in a little past crossfire on their turns and depending on their movement speed, determines how much crossfire they get hit by.

[Pyro]

I didn't download the EX hard missions (no Orders? Now I see how they are hard) or the Selvaria content. I'd assume Welkin is your typical Scout. Maybe a worse Alicia thanks to lacking evade (he's supposedly the worst of the Scout class for doding by like a lot). In general I associate Welkin with the tank.

There is a hidden accuracy stat. It modifies the size of the aiming circle rather than affect an enemy chance to dodge (which is more or less a set %).

Movement range is usually discarded in the DL except for tie-breaking. You're free to do what you want.

Crossfire is a pain in the arse to figure out. Do what you want.

[Hunter Sopko]

From the Selvaria DLC, here's Selvaria in both her Human and Valkyria forms, as well as both forms of Johann, the main character.

Selvaria (Human Form)

HP: 681
Def: 2
Evade ?
Durability ?

Moveset:
Ruhm - 700 damage over 20 bullets. A accuracy.

Born Leader
Tank Hater
Accuracy Boost

Notes: Selvaria is an odd duck. She's a Scout on the map, and also gets Scout AP, but she carries a machine gun and takes hits as a Shocktrooper. Also carries no grenades or Ragnaid.

Selvaria (Valkyria Form)

HP- 1500
Def- 2
Evade ?
Durability?

Moveset:
Beam Gatling- 450 over 6 hits. A accuracy.
Beam Cannon- 999 in one hit. 9999 against armor. Kills anything in one hit, including tanks from the front. Goes through troops, but not tanks. Pinpoint accuracy.

No support skills.

Takes 1 damage from all bullets. Does not evade, cannot crouch behind cover.



Johann Oswald Eisen (Engineer) - Ostensibly the main character of Selvaria's Missions. 

HP: 180
Def: 2
Evade ?
Durability ?

Moveset
ZM KAR 4 - 125 over 5 bullets. C accuracy.
VB WF 92 grenades - 300
Ragnaid (L)

Indecisive
Coward
Ultimate Evade - Evade greatly raised on a permenant basis.

Notes: Weeps for crappy equipment and two debilitating supports.

Johann Oswald Eisen (Scout) AKA Oswald the Iron

HP: 225
Def: 2
Evade ?
Durability ?

Moveset
ZM KAR 4 - 125 over 5 bullets. C accuracy.
VB WF 92 grenades - 300
Ragnaid (S)

Ultimate Evade - Evade greatly raised on a permenant basis.
Fearless Will - Atk and Def greatly raised when in range of enemy fire.

Notes: On the 4th mission of the DLC, where Selvy gets her Valk mode, Johann gets an upgrade to Scout and also becomes an Ace for your side. He loses both his crappy skills and gains a really good one. Still hampered by crappy equips though.

[kokushishin]

Missing the "hidden" recruits.   Lynn and Audrey in particular.

[DjinnAndTonic]

Well, if you didn't view the tanks as explicitly 'not killable by characters that don't have tank-weakness-hitting', then they're actually rankable Godlikes. They are high-HP, but Welkin's damage isn't even a 2HKO. Zaka's probably isn't against most Godlikes.

ITD and healing (or really good durability/evade)  is pretty much a must, though.

More interesting high-Godlikes than most (which seem to be 'Get a turn->Win!').

[Pyro]

Hidden recruits added to main post except Mussad who is newgame + only.

Here are his stats:

Mussad
Scout:

HP: 340
Durability: 1.04
Evade: 59

[Pyro]

Here are the relevant stats for Selvaria's human boss form, at least as far as what she is in the DL...

Relevant PC stat:
HP: 304



Selvaria Bles:

Acts three times/enemy phase.

HP: 1100
Def: 20

Translating these numbers: Critical hits (headshots) are 2.5x attack before defense to her. What this means is that if she takes any appreciable damage she just falls over and dies, since most things 1-2HKO her and you get the 10+ actions a round deal.

Evade: 100% perfect. Things that get around her field of vision can avoid her evade. Her field of vision is Scout-class, however. (note that for her, taking damage from grenades and the like does basically nothing when she evades, unlike most PCs who take about 1/4th the damage).

Skillset:
Heal All. Restores all of her side's units on the map. Requires two CP.

Machine Gun: 550 damage over 25 hits.

Comments: Selvaria is pretty bloody straightforward. No actual durability, 100% perfect evade, horrendous gratuitous mind-boggling overkill. Godlike. I suppose if you hold her to average PC evade she has ~75% accuracy or so. Godlike. Pity her if she gets smacked with straight up ITE damage though.

[kokushishin]

Some notable potentials:


Musaad
Undodgeable Shot "Hold still and smile for the flash!"  ^_^
Third Eye- take normal instead of critical damage
Ultimate Evade- Large evade boost, 100% activation.   "I can dodge bullets.  No problem."
Bloodthirsty-  same as Double Attack


Alex
Melee skills: More accurate up close (less than 100 range I guess?)
Neutralize:  Attack is uncounterable

Hannes
Kamikaze: Accuracy and Evade boost when at single digit HP.
Mid Range Skills: more accurate at outer weapon range "I can shoot far!"

Lynn
Hard Worker: can take extra action.  "I don't mind a little overtime."
Full HP Recovery: recover Max HP after making attack. "I've caught my second wind."

Edy
Undodgeable Shot
Phoenix:  chance of reviving when reduced to 0 HP.


Jane
Sadist: Big attack power boost.  "Scream for me."  0_o
Mid-Range Skills
Full HP Recovery

Audrey
Mooch:  Refills ammo to 3  "I kinda helped myself"
First Aid Boost
Poison Tolerance: Immune to status (Attack Down, Defense Down, Accuracy Down, HP Down)
Ultimate Anti-Armor: 1.5-2x  damage vs. Armor

Knute
Lucky: prevents critical damage, see Third Eye
Undodgeable Shot
Demolition Man:  Boosts grenade damage by ?
Double Action: act twice during turn

Dallas
Demolition Man

Nadine
Resist Counters: less damage from counterattacks
Double Action

Claudia
Invincible: take 0 damage from attack

[DjinnAndTonic]

I've been scouring Japanese sites for mechanics data on this since I started playing it. One thing that I found particularly interesting is that Critical multipliers are dependent on the -defender's- unit. So all ground soldier units in Valkyria Chronicles take 3.5x damage before defense from Critical hits. And all Tank-type units take TEN TIMES DAMAGE before defense from Criticals. So basically, to defeat a Welkin, you simply have to be a Critwhore. FE8 Eirika > Edelweiss.

Also, it's notable that the Scouts and Snipers might actually want to use their Status-down weapons. Particularly Alicia might appreciate the increased damage from using a DefDown Rifle + Grenade every turn. The status-down infliction rate appears to be 100%?

Defense Down
Weapon: Scout Rifle
Effect: -50% defense

Attack Down
Weapon: Trooper Machine gun
Effect: -50% vsPers, -50% vsArmor

HP Down
Weapon: Trooper Flamethrower
Effect: loses 3% of max HP every 3 seconds

Accuracy Down
Weapon: Sniper Rifle
Effect: -50% accuracy

Also, Busard has a full English mechanics guide up on the GameFAQs message boards now: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/942165-valkyria-chronicles/50848418
We should probably get some of that information up over here in DL-friendly format.

In that same thread, Porcupine states that Activation rate for Potentials is a uniform 12.5%, with the exception of the noted 50% and 100% ones. I'm a little skeptical of this since my wanderings through Japanese sites suggest 25%-40% activation for several Potentials (like Alicia's). It's possible that these differ between regions, though.

Really neat cast, and the game reminds me of the newer FEs a lot.

[DjinnAndTonic]

Mirroring Pyro’s work, but now with all Potentials listed for completion’s sake. Some Potentials really suck, most are unlikely to ever see use, but the few that will are worth noting. Most Potentials activate at a rate of 1/8 whenever certain conditions are met. Most can only activate once per turn/attack, but some can be forcefully activated by actions that can be performed multiple times in a turn (such as entering and leaving range of enemies/allies/terrain). Some Potentials activate at 100% (such as the Ultimates and the HP-based conditionals). Anything that can only activate once per turn is listed as such. For Potentials that can be brute-force activated by their conditions, I have simply listed the conditions necessary.

Added in Accuracy rating for all units based on Busard’s work (seems consistent with the Japanese wikis)

All Orders are listed for Welkin, but note that he can only be targeted by a few of them (mostly the All Allies ones).

Alicia:
Scout

HP: 345
Defense: 10 ( .8 damage modifier)
Durability: 85%
Evade: 77% (O_o) (hard tested on 125 attacks)
Acc: 54

Moveset:
Gallian-A20: 210 damage over 7 hits.
B-Type Grenade M5 (1): 360 damage to a small area. Does not trigger counters even in VC.

Resist Crossfire: Halves attack value of interception attacks (passive attacks/field effects) when entering enemy range
Double Movement: 1/8 chance of restoring all AP (allowing more movement) whenever AP reaches 0

Comments: Alicia makes high-end FE'rs want that evade. Low Heavy. She has troubles storing up actions for huge damage thanks to only getting one grenade per turn and she's kinda frail, but the evade is awesome and she can heal on up if she's unlucky enough to get whacked (while still countering). Low 2HKO helps too, as do counters.


Rosie:
Shocktrooper

HP: 384
Defense: 20 (1.4 modifier)
Durability: 165%
Evade: 50% ***** (The guide apparently says 32%, but this number was acquired over a large number of trials, and the guide was also wrong about Rosie's accuracy)
Acc: 63

Moveset:
Mags M30: 500 damage over 20 shots *Rosie's aiming recticle is much smaller than the other Shocktroopers, so she can reliably get in 20 hits instead of the usual 15*
(Optional: MAJ-X M20: 360 damage over 20 shots. Inflicts Attack Down.)
FF8 Flamethrower: 438 damage to an area in front of Rosie.
B-Type Grenade M5 (1): 360 explosion damage to an area.
Ragnaid (S): 100 healing.

Best damage in one turn: Mags M30*2 for 1000 damage.

Desert Allergy: Loses 3% of mHP every 3 seconds when entering Desert-type ground
Song of Peace: +40% Accuracy/Evasion whenever near any Darcsen unit
Strong-Willed: Halves damage from interception attacks (passive attacks/counters) whenever entering enemy range
Battle Potentials:
Undercover Fire: +60% Accuracy when crouching behind cover
Undodgeable Shot: 1/8 chance of an attack ignoring enemy evasion
Dud Mine: 1/8 chance of traps not activating when they would normally be triggered
Double Attack: 1/8 chance per turn of a second attack occurring consecutively before enemy counters

Comments: Rosie is a badass slugger. Really badass. And then she inflicts Attack Down and you are screwed. Heavy.


Largo:
Lancer

HP: 477
Defense: 19 (1.31 modifier)
Durability: 191%
Evade: 22.6%
Acc: 26.4

Moveset:
Lancaar-SH M12 Mortar Lance (3): 438 explosion damage to an area.
Ragnaid (S): 100 healing.

Best damage in one turn: Two Mortars for 872 damage.

Personality Potentials:
Big-Hearted: 1/8 chance of not dying and healing to full HP whenever HP is reduced to 0
Child of Nature: -40% Defense when entering City-type ground

Veggie-Maniac: +40% Attack to all unit types whenever entering Grass, Dirt, or Desert-type ground
Battle Potentials:
First Aid Boost: 1/8 chance of doubled HP recovery when using Ragnaid (S)
Tank Slayer: +60% Attack to Armor units and +60% Accuracy when near 2 or more Tanks (ally or enemy)
Dbl. Tank Damage: 1/8 chance per attack of dealing full damage to all parts of a multi-part Armor unit
Ammo Refill: 1/8 chance per attack of recovering full ammunition after attacking

Comments: Largo is an enormous physical tank, and god help you if you rely on explosion damage against him. That said, because he expends two lance shots a round and only regains one, he can only fire one per turn starting on his third turn. Of course he can store up a lance on round 1 to unleash 3 the next turn in hopes of OHKOing healers, and he can use Ragnaid after he starts relying on 1 lance/round. Heavy.


Zaka:
Tank Commander “Shamrock”
Accuracy: 6

Personality Potentials:
Born Leader: +40% Defense whenever near 3 or more allies
Darcsen Pride: +40% Attack to Armor units, +40% Accuracy, and +40% Defense when near a Darcsen unit
Good Buddy: +40% Attack to all unit-types, +40% Accuracy whenever near close friends
Metal Head: +40% Attack to Armor units when entering Metal-type ground

Comments: Included for completion, though it’s notable that he takes 10x damage from Critical attacks, so he’s not as unrankable as originally thought

“GENERICS”
Scout:
Gallian-A20: 210 damage over 7 hits.
B-Type Grenade M5 (1): 360 damage to a small area. Does not trigger counters even in VC.

Mags M30: 375 damage over 20 shots
(Optional: MAJ-X M20: 300 damage over 20 shots. Inflicts Attack Down.)
FF8 Flamethrower: 438 damage to an area in front of the Shocktrooper.

Ragnaid (S): 100 healing.

Acc: 33.1

Super Evasion: 1/8 chance per turn of +80% Evasion
Full HP Recovery: 1/8 chance per attack of restoring all HP to full
Comments: Using Susie is like a good game of Roulette, lots of chances for good stuff to happen, but she busts, she really loses out. Amusingly, Humanitarian isn’t actually THE worst Potential in the game.

Freesia:   <--- Hot.
HP: 281
Def: 10 (.8 modifier)
Durability: .69
Evade: 69.5%
Acc: 32.3

Resist Crossfire: Halves attack value of interception attacks (passive attacks/field effects) when entering enemy range
Concentration: 1/8 chance per attack of making all shot hit dead center (no noteworthy DL effect)
Comments: A good unit in game for unique field talents, she doesn’t translate well. Can try to avoid her bad Potential by only attacking every other turn and saving up CP for blitzing, though that kind of hurts her damage output. Good base evasion, though.

Juno:
HP: 279

Cherry:

Durability: .68
Evade: 55.2%
Acc: Acc: 43.8
Personality Potentials:

Resist Crossfire: Halves attack value of interception attacks (passive attacks/field effects) when entering enemy range
Double Movement: 1/8 chance of restoring all AP (allowing more movement) whenever AP reaches 0
Comments: Has the general upsides of being a Scout, and Runner’s High/Resist Crossfire make her probably the most physically durable Scout in the game, for all that she probably never wants this form over SoA.

Musaad: <-- Aftergame-only Hidden recruit
HP: 340

Third Eye: 1/8 chance per enemy counter-attack of preventing the attack from being a critical hit
Ultimate Evade: Always-active straight +90% Evasion

SHOCKTROOPERS:

Alex:
HP: 360
Def: 20 (1.4 modifier)
Durability: 1.54
Evade: 32.4
Acc: 42.8
Note: Ultimate Damage Potential raises Machine Gun damage to 615.
Personality Potentials:
Acrobat: +40% Attack against personnel units when climbing a ladder
Neat Freak: -40% Accuracy when entering Dirt-type ground
Night Vision: 1/8 chance per turn of +40% Accuracy when it’s dark
Scout Killer: +40% Attack to personnel units and +40% Accuracy when near any enemy Scouts
Battle Potentials:
Melee Skills: +40% Evasion when near any enemy (within 100 range)
Ambush Spotter: Triples sight range when entering Grass-type ground (...)
Neutralize: 1/8 chance of preventing an enemy from counter-attacking
Ultimate Damage: Always-active straight +90% Attack to personnel units
Comments: Alex is a pretty awesome Trooper. If he’s using his Flamethrower (and he should be), then he can brute-force the Melee Skills Potential to up his Evade to Scout levels before an opponent’s turn. With Ult. Damage as a straight-up increase, he’s one of the most consistently damaging units in the game, even including the story PCs. Occasionally nulling enemy counters is just a bonus.

Kevin:
HP: 370
Def: 20 (1.4 modifier)
Durability: 1.58
Evade: 31.4
Acc: 42.8
Personality Potentials:

Battle Potentials:
First Aid Boost: 1/8 chance of doubled HP recovery when using Ragnaid (S)
Kamikaze: +60% Accuracy and +40% Evasion when having single-digit HP (9HP or less)
Dud Mine: 1/8 chance of traps not activating when they would normally be triggered
Double Attack: 1/8 chance per turn of a second attack occurring consecutively before enemy counters
Comments: Pretty forgettable. Terrible combination with Kamikaze and First Aid Boost. If he heals up from single-digit HP, he loses the Kamikaze boost. 1/8 chance of Double Attack is all he has, though that’s not bad.

Coby:

Dud Mine: 1/8 chance of traps not activating when they would normally be triggered
Phoenix: 1/8 chance of not dying and healing to full HP whenever HP is reduced to 0

Ambush Spotter: Triples sight range when entering Grass-type ground (...)
Super Damage: 1/8 chance per turn of +80% Attack to personnel units
Full HP Recovery: 1/8 chance per attack of restoring all HP to full
Comments: Lots of decent stuff. Melee Skills means he’s more evasive once he gets a turn and can brute-force that. Kills Tanks and Lancer dead! Random chance to full-heal!

Hannes:
HP: 389
Def: 20 (1.4 modifier)
Durability: 1.66
Evade: 28.5
Acc: 39
Note: Ultimate Damage Potential raises Machine Gun damage to 615.
Personality Potentials:
Daredevil: +40% Accuracy when near 3 or more enemies
Child of Nature: -40% Defense when entering City-type ground
Imp Hater: +40% Accuracy when near any Imperial unit
Battle Potentials:
Undercover Fire: +60% Accuracy when crouching behind cover
Kamikaze: +60% Accuracy and +40% Evasion when having single-digit HP (9HP or less)
Mid-Range Skills: +66.7% Attack to personnel units and +66.7% Accuracy when not near any enemy units (more than 100 range away)
Ultimate Damage: Always-active straight +90% Attack to personnel units
Comments: Possibly the best Trooper around? The straight damage increase is nice, and he can boost it even more by attacking from range. Might be hard to kill at very low health, too. Also, depending on how you view “Imperials”, he might get an awesome Accuracy boost against royalty?!

Mica:
HP: 360

Durability: 1.54
Evade: 29.5
Acc: 49.5
Personality Potentials:
Jam Jinxed: 1/8 chance of causing weapon to jam mid-attack (only fires half of available bullets for firearms, and flamethrowers do not fire at all for the turn)
Metal Head: +40% Attack to Armor units when entering Metal-type ground
Pessimist: -40% Defense when having under 50% HP
Battle Potentials:
Damage Boost: 1/8 chance per turn of +60% Attack to personnel units
Fearless Will: +60% Attack to personnel units and +60% Defense when entering enemy range
Mid-Range Skills: +66.7% Attack to personnel units and +66.7% Accuracy when not near any enemy units (more than 100 range away)
Phoenix: 1/8 chance of not dying and healing to full HP whenever HP is reduced to 0
Comments: An odd mix. Her Personals suck, but don’t activate too often. Fearless Will and Mid-Range Skills can actually stack and be brute-forced against Ranged opponents for awesome consistent damage. Phoenix and Damage boost are nice tie-breakers.

Vyse:    <-- Yes, THAT Vyse.
HP: 389
Def: 20 (1.4 modifier)
Durability: 1.66
Evade: 28.5
Acc: 44.8
Personality Potentials:
Challenge Lover: +40% Attack against personnel when in range of enemy attacks (probably every turn in a DL setting)
Born Leader: +40% Defense whenever near 3 or more allies
Child of Nature: -40% Defense when entering City-type ground
Battle Potentials:
First Aid Boost: 1/8 chance of doubled HP recovery when using Ragnaid (S)
Undodgeable Shot: 1/8 chance of an attack ignoring enemy evasion
Super Damage: 1/8 chance per turn of +80% Attack to personnel units
Double Attack: 1/8 chance per turn of a second attack occurring consecutively before enemy counters
Comments: Now Vyse might actually want this form occasionally. Challenge Lover can be brute-forced every turn for a damage bonus, and he has 1/8 chance for lots of useful things like extra healing, ITE, and double-attacking. Having Healing at all might be worth using this form.

Undodgeable Shot: 1/8 chance of an attack ignoring enemy evasion
Super Damage: 1/8 chance per turn of +80% Attack to personnel units
Phoenix: 1/8 chance of not dying and healing to full HP whenever HP is reduced to 0
Comments: Awesomest EVAR! Not really, Panicky and Melee Skills are a terrible combination. She can’t get close enough to an enemy to brute-force the Evasion boost (or even really use her Flamethrower) without risking an Attack nerf. Chance of ITE and Super Damage helps, and Phoenix is always a good tie-breaker, but there are better Troopers (but they don’t have her Star Potential~!)

Full HP Recovery: 1/8 chance per attack of restoring all HP to full
Comments: Kills Lancers dead! Fearless Will and Mid-Range Skills stack and can be brute-forced against Ranged opponents, so she kills those dead too. Extra 1/8 chance of Sadist kicking in and making her damage even more awesome! And if you’re feeling generous with your interps on what counts as an ‘Imperial’, she kills those dead, too. And she can randomly fullheal if she’s lucky. Pretty awesome Trooper package.

Invincible: 1/8 chance of any enemy attack inflicting no damage or status effects
Comments: It’s nice that she has random Invincibility because Maintentance Lazy makes her lose her chance to attack AND still gets her countered. Super First Aid is redundant on herself, since Ragnaid L already full-heals her.

Eagle Eye: 1/8 chance per sighting of tripling zoom-in capability (increased Critical chance?)

Eagle Eye: 1/8 chance per sighting of tripling zoom-in capability (increased Critical chance?)
Comments: Not really sure what to do with Eagle Eye, but conceivably the 1/8 chance to get the extra accuracy makes it like a guaranteed Headshot critical ID. Backup Sniping is a great brute-force-able damage boost. Perfect Dodge means he’s less likely to die to counters (from Ranged attackers?).
