[FE7] [COMPLETE] Fire Emblem: The Blazing Silver PME v1.0b

I figured out Guinevere’s spot, I considered making her my Zephiel replacement but nah, It’s too good for one scene, so I’ll keep that for later if the month passes or what not.

Slot:Guinevere

[my original idea was to have Guinevere be herself but replace all her lines with bits of the Navy seal copypasta, reciting the whole thing on death, but I felt that might be inappropriate, so instead I stole a bit from ELECTIONTRUKING, meh.]

DO NOT PLAY BATTLE BEFORE DAWN ON HECTOR HARD MODE or why Jaffar's slot should be really really good

After some light testing on Hector Hard mode Anna!Zephiel dies by turn 10 pretty consistently IF Jaffar runs towards them otherwise her chances get much choppier since she can’t kill the 1 range enemies, the +4 res does make them immune to magic [aside Ursula],The brave bow is also heavy losing 5 speed as such they are left with 10, they will still die to the heros who have 16-18 speed, since they have less avoid on the axes it’s more likely Anna!Zephiel can be forced off the pillar earlier, after which they will then run to a wall or corner and die quickly due to losing all their avoid, this is worse when the merc reach the room on turn 6-7 if Jaffar ran away or dies, at that point they are very likely to die as they face low crit and can get damaged to the point they take just enough to not heal and die next turn…
However the Elixirs do stall well, they aren’t infinite [especially if two elixirs are considered duplicates and one is removed]

A silver lining is that Anna!Zephiel will not move to attack only heal.
To improve this the simplest choice would be to disable retreat in unit placer, however if messing with AI is off the table then there is nothing to do.

This is all without even considering Jaffar and Nino’s recruitment, depending on Jaffar and Nino’s replacements this might be better or much much worse.

Whoever replaces Jaffar better be really really good or Battle before Dawn will be borderline unbeatable on Hector Hard mode, Hero or similar class being the best choice as they have the best movement range to reach Anna!Zephiel in time without running too far away.

A one-trick pony; all he does is hit you hard. Really, really hard. However, you can just go around him or pelt him with ranged attacks until he goes down, especially as he has a bane in his otherwise solid DEF. Also, would it be possible to give him “Rise to the Challenge” as his boss theme?

Instead of being the young recruit she now guides other’s to their potential.

Death Quote: Mom… forgive me…
Personality: Ambitious girl who despite having a hard time growing up became a motivational speaker and great chess player. Although because of her bold statements she is hated by a lot of nobles, she just screams potential for a revolution. Whoever the villian will be, he must have some reason to hate her but also a certain desire to have her as an icon, she is the girl of the streets and her songs have great magic potential for any evil scheme .In the end Zuiho decides to flee with her mother to the world beyond the gate. Finding new peace in a new world.

Thanks for all the submissions so far y’all! I’ll try to record a gameplay footage soon for showcase.
Now lemme please have clarifications with a few of the submissions, it’s quite a lot and again, I know this might as well be the weirdest PME yet lol. But I’m confident that, with a lot of focus & patience, I can cook up something great, and there is solutions for everything always:

  • @MaxTheUltimateSwordmaster & @Taylor, about Thorne & Aireth lords respectively, you can still upgrade your submissions to have full custom classes with custom names & prfs (the same way @AthenaBaer did with Anthena)! In the hack there is full space pre-reserved for their classes, battle animations & names so no problem at all. Just remember up to 2 weapon types unpromoted then 3 weapon types promoted (Anthena has her weapon types correctly).
  • @RaimonRex Finn @ColeTheOne Fionn @TritraSerpifeu Zuiho - Just making sure if it is or not; those three units can still have higher growth rates, up to 305% (355% in the case of Zuiho)! In the case of Finn however, these are the same growths that he has in FE4 right? In that case i can have him keep it if you wish Rex.
  • @TheEmeraldKing267 Josiah @ColeTheOne Vandis @RNGSOMEONE Diane @TritraSerpifeu Amelia - For all these pre-promotes, you can still have up to 305% growth rates if you so wish! HOWEVER for Vandis, she has growths higher than 305%; i’ll need it so that please have her growths recalculated so it follows the up to 305% rule instead - i can do it myself if you wish Cole -. All of them i’ll then be able to do the -15% stat adjustment on top myself.
  • @RNGSOMEONE Diane @Mintywater Kaine - Apologies but both Jaffar & Lowen were already taken first. You can still repurpose your characters for another slot, no problem!
  • @TheEmeraldKing267 Daimler & Josiah - I just now noticed the inventory of these two units! Barons in this hack actually have all four physical weapon types available instead, without any of the tomes & staves (it’s also the limit that can be shown on the status screen anyway). We can have some workarounds for their inventory of your choice with this in mind(e.g. in Daimler case i could have a new sub-boss Sage that has Bolting equipped & is parked in front of him, while having his own Bolting replaced).

Definitely on paper lol! I’ll give a lot of focus on the chapter to figure out how it’s gonna play out & what minimal changes i can do to make it easier to handle for HHM (e.g. having Anna’s AI stay on the pillar so she keeps her evasion boost & testing if there will not be any game breaking bugs with this. Also i can simply swap her third item as a vulnerary, OR @RaimonRex you’re still free to change Anna’s third item to help). Obviously should be better in Eliwood Normal & Hard, possible even Hector Normal.

Do remember also that, the thing i said about making Fog of War enemies less annoying to handle, this still applies to this chapter (e.g. about enemies wielding bows & eff. weapons being replaced, this will also count the Swordreaver/Swordslayer death party in Hector mode of this chapter, replaced with normal weapons). You did indeed mention the enemy champions & etc that are nearby Anna’s position. I’ll deep analyze them on my end, gameplay test and all, after all the replacers in this chapter are done.

One last thing! @ColeTheOne both your Nino & Jaffar replacers still have one inventory slot left. You can simply give them Elixirs you know. :wink:

With all being said & done, if in the end, even with all these ‘indirect’ changes, HHM Battle Before Dawn will still be impossible to finish, I’ll straight up do hard changes to enemies formation, replacing select few etc. While having super hard maps like this can be fun to overcome, having they be outright impossible is not.

Super thanks for reminding me! It’s already up in the Slots Taken List.

Rinkah (Jey the Count)

Death Quote: So this… is how my flame goes out? No! I can’t fall here… not… here…
Personality: A no-nonsense fighter with a strict training code that will always try to maintain a stoic demeanour. She constantly tries to improve her combat skills, and while isolationist, she never declines a challenge. Hates cowards and weakness above all, and thus will try avoiding any action that will make her look weak. She also has a big love for food, especially large meals, and hates any kind of “food wasting”.

Okay! I removed the brackets from Amelia so she has her full potential. I hope she will be like a neat half meme unit.

And I now also gave Zuiho and Amelia the extra 5%. I hope they will be fun lol. Tbh I am in the mood to write a support chain between them but unfortunately Nils doesn’t have supports.

Oh wait Ninian and Nils have tons of shared properties do they not? Doesn’t the level transfer between them and stuff? I guess it could be interesting to have different growth rates depending on when the level is obtained but if they are both the same character gameplay wise I would be open to make Zuiho’s mother Ninian. Unless you can work around that of course.

3 Likes

Oh right another question. Can I do two boss units as well as two player units?

3 Likes

Correct! In this case you can pick two boss units to replace.

And, from what i know, both the level and stats do transfer from Nils to Ninian, then back to Nils at the endgame. But I’m not sure about the growth rates if they’ll also transfer or be different per character tho.
Something to note however is that both classes can fight in this hack; Bards with light magic while Dancers with swords. It certainly helps that both strength & magic will be merged into the singular ‘Power’ stat (with the patches), so the stat transfers should work correctly to allow each to fight with their weapon.

Okay! I then adjusted Zuiho to have actual combat growths! So that she can make use of her holy light magic!
