[FE8] [Completed] The Sacred Trilogy Reskin and Rebalance

[ReturnOfTheBlackKnight]

@adalvar

There was a lot of characters, specifically on the magical side of things that had their growths nerfed on the localization version. Off the top of my head it was Artur, Lute, Ewan, L’ Arachel and there was also Amelia. Also I think Colm had some base Stat nerfs

Would be a good thing to reset then to their original value?

If we’re talking about buffs, then I think Garcia is the one who deserves it the most. That man is a beast lore-wise but his speed and defense suck in the main game. I know he’s old and all. But look at other old characters from other FE games, Rudolf for example. I think Garcia should at least be strong enough to set an example for Ross (He always wanted to surpass his father.)

EDIT: Here’s an idea. Shave off 2-3 skirmish locations and maybe 2 Tower floors (poll it to get a pulse for the people’s reaction) and use that to get some extra ROM space for features like extra dialogue, enemies and cutscenes. Pretty sure no one will mind that.

I don’t see a problem with removing the entire Tower of Valni. If I remember correctly it’s supposed to be an ideal post-game content maybe for farming supports because the main game’s so short.

If we’re planning to increase the main story chapters then I don’t see a reason why would player go there unless he wants to farm exp. Lagdou Ruins can always fill the part of the post game content. But let’s see what people agree with.

I have a terrible idea for what you could do with the main story tower maps if you wanted to give players a place to farm supports and train up units if you want.

The idea is simple, instead of an 8 floor tower it’s a horde styled single map of decen’t size with about 50-ish waves of enemies to act as the “floors” of the tower.

The waves start off like the first two floors with a boss(es) every 6 waves until wave 12-15 where the enemies start occasionally being promoted and the bosses get tougher and tougher until you hit wave 50 and a group of like 4 tough bosses spawn to act as the final floor, clearing it could grant some random statboosters a gold or black gem or you could make some unique items as a prize.

It’s up to you if want to do it or not, but I figured I’d still suggest it.

For example @jackofblades1991 just gave an another amazing idea. I always felt that the last floor of Tower felt like a defense map. Maybe, Blood could do an actual story chapter in there where players protect the Sacred Stones in a survival map and that same map could be used for, you know farming purposes.
