[FE8] Fire Emblem 8 - October PME (cancelled, read post 100)

I’ve learned quite a good amount about hacking in FEBuilder so now I’m up for creating a new PME for FE8. This PME will feature the regular skillsys that’s available in FEBuilder (specifically SkillSystems 20220703), so I already imagine things getting a bit crazy, but with some select skills banned so it can be somewhat balanced at release.

Anyone free to join and create units ranging from serious, to joke/memes, to self-inserts, to characters from other media, and so on (but please, still within reason). Let me know if there’s anything missing as I’m basing some rules from other PMEs, and now without further ado let’s get right into the main list, have fun submitting:

  • Two Replacements and/or Reservations allowed per user per day.

  • Growth Rates: 320% Regular – 280% Prepromotes – 360% Lords
    (The growths above are estimate, they can be a little higher or lower)

  • Boons/Banes: 5/5 HP-Luck, 4/4 Con, 3/3 Str-Mag-Skl-Spd-Def-Res

  • No Trainees Allowed. Ross/Amelia/Ewan must be base unpromoted classes.

  • Custom weapons and classes allowed. Weapons can be personal to your unit, but have maximum of 60 uses. Classes have limit of 2 weapons unpromoted, increased to 4 promoted. You can request small changes to vanilla classes as well.

  • Up to 4 items in inventory, and 4 personal skills per unit. They are learned at the same rate of Awakening (Innate, Lvl-10 Base, Lvl-5 Promo, Lvl-15 Promo). Bosses are only allowed to learn as much skills as their level actually allows.

  • BANNED SKILLS: Rightful Skills / Rally Skills / Provoke / Shade / Capture / Hawkeye / Deadeye / Dazzle / Double Lion / Killing Machine / Vantage+ / Tower Shield+ / Discipline+ / Steal+ / Desperation / Foresight / Axefaith / Alert-Spectrum Stance / Indoor-Outdoor Fighter / Lumina / Shadowgift / Void Curse / Dragon’s Blood

  • Life and Death is only allowed the version that grants +5 Str/Mag/Spd & -5 Def/Res.

  • Crit Boost buffed: now always grants +30 critical hit chance to the user.

  • Breaker Skills nerfed: user gains +25 Hit/Avoid against selected enemy weapon.

  • Daunt buffed: user will give -10 Hit/Crit to all enemies within a 3-tile radius.

  • S Rank grants +10 Hit/Crit and all units can S Rank multiple weapons.

Vanilla Classes Skill List

All infantry classes will innately have Shove.
Knights/Generals/Warriors/Berserkers have Smite.
Cavalry/Fliers have Canto+ (move after attack), we Jugdral/Tellius now.

Three Promotion Options Available

Leaving this in a separate post so it’s easy to see: I’ve also implemented the ‘3 Promotion Branch Options’ patch by Area/7743. This means that base units can promote to three different classes. So when you make custom classes you can create three promotions instead of two (this is the reason why this PME will not have Trainees).

Vanilla classes weren’t changed yet, so if you want X vanilla class should have Y class as its third promotion, feel free to request the change in a post and I’ll see if I can make it in the project.

(Lords must still have a single exclusive promoted class)


  • Myrmidon → Swordmaster / Hero / Assassin (CelestiaHeart)
  • Priest/Cleric → Sage / Bishop / Valkyrie (CelestiaHeart)
  • Mercenary → Hero / Ranger / Sergeant (Speak)
  • Noelle’s Cleric → Sage / Bishop / War Cleric (Speak)

Guess that means I’m reserving Ephraim again.

Lemme also snag… Y’know what? Seth.

Hey, you wanna trade Eirika for Ephraim? I’m bored of always making Ephraim.

Misc: Wretched Air’s boosts will only carry them so far. Past a certain point, this is no longer a combat unit. This is a truck.

Perhaps Ilgen doesn’t need to look like a draco zombie on his portrait, maybe his portrait could instead be a hooded man that gives the vibe of a manakete.

Feel free to update his post with a new portrait if this or another idea sounds good.

I can use the fire dragon portrait and recolor it or even idunn

Well… that would be a lot more within my capabilities, I suppose.

I’ll reserve Franz and Natasha.

@FlynnWood Are the triple promos already set per class or are they customizable?

Edit: Nvm. Uh… give Myrmidons the option to promote to Hero. Priests/Clerics get Sage, Bishop, and Valkyrie.

Just like in the hack I’m planning!

because I scrapped merc

I’m using the regular skillsys from FEBuilder (20220703): Luna Bracelet, Super Luck and Glaciate (Glacies?) aren’t available as choices. Also which Fortress skill is it?

I believe that these skills are available on the C+ version of SkillSys, that I actually know Enthusiasm is using in their current PME. But again, not this PME.
