[FE8] HoloEmblem: The Search for Seiso (42 Chapters) [v.1.8.2]

hello all shark grievers

I think most people playing this already know there’s a pretty notorious bug involving skill scrolls turning into other skills if stored inside the convoy. This happens when you save the game after you store them and then perform a reset of the game (e.g. not continuing from a savestate)

I won’t go into detail on how this works, but the basic gist is the skills that are ‘morphed’ are consistent because of how the game works, so I’ve compiled a list of scrolls that this applies to (may not be fully accurate as I didn’t test everything, but based on logic this should be how it works). Hopefully this helps people live with the bug until it gets fixed or even take advantage of it, I think early Aegis can be a pretty cool option!

I sorted the scrolls in order of when you can obtain them so will be putting them in a spoiler bracket below.

There is one instance of this bug that is gamebreaking: if you store the nullify scroll into the convoy (obtained from ch23x) and then perform the bug, the game saves the scroll as skill id 00 which will instantly crash your game when you try to access it. Basically don’t do it. All other scrolls should be fine. Keeping Nullify out of the convoy should be fine too.
