[FE8] Project Jade -- A Sacred Stones Overhaul [2.4 UPDATE!] [COMPLETE]

New patch just uploaded. Some pretty substantial changes in this one. I did end up letting Heroes keep Sol, because I love Sol Heroes haha, but now Ephraim learns that at Level 5 Promoted, Eirika learns Luna at Level 5 Promoted, and then after Last Hope, they both learn Aether. Duessel has a forced promotion after Father and Son, where he will learn Luna if he hasn’t already by leveling up. He also gets another Prf axe, and Seth’s Prf lance has been updated to the Solar Lance.

Also Lyra is now a Druid and starts with a Dark Spikes tome. That’s not as important but she’s nice. (:

Very much like this. Also right before this patch a couple things I noticed. On of my saves, a normal run mostly for fun and looking for any bugs I can point out, I have Natasha lvl 10+ and ready to promote but her palette for Valkyrie is messed lol. And for Neimi if she promotes to Sniper her palette loses all her color. So far those are the only things I found buggy. Game still is mostly bug free. Also slight suggestion but Lute does have a custom Sage animation that I THINK is free in the repository to use? Worth checking out.

Keep up the good work.

Ooh I’ll have to check that out.

The palette thing should be fixed in the most recent update. If it’s not, I’ll have to look into it tomorrow.

Lute does have a custom battle animation yes, just quickly checked.

Oh sick, definitely adding that haha

I wish Ewan had custom Druid sprites I always make him a druid and with Lumina he becomes a super pupil with more con and staff utility as druid

Edit:You should have made super Recruit Amelia into the Halb skin for her like you did super Journeyman into Beserker for Ross

Edit 2x:


Natasha you good?

Well, I guess the poor valkyries are still in pain.

Im not familiar with heroes and Sol since I mostly play the gba games but why is that? Also nah it’s alright if Eirika doesn’t get sol in the end

Ephraim generally has an easier time dealing damage than Eirika, I feel like it makes sense to give Luna to her, while Ephraim gets to fearlessly lead the charge since he can heal himself.

Not a big issue. Just some typo.

Ok so just a minor thing to point out as im still early on and haven’t seen the full scope. Would it be possible to swap Ross’ personal skill to that of Garcia? It would play into the fact that they are kinda designed to work in tandem no?

The thing with personal skills is its how to make units different and in ross’ case what if you promote him to fighter(don’t) and they share the same personal skill now you have two fighters with the exact same skills but 1 and that is the Journeyman lvl 10 skill Ross gets but if you have different personal skills it atleast makes the fighters different.

Yeah but in this case it’s to promote a combo pair. 2x Blue Flame + 2x Fire Affinity fast support would produce a ton of damage. It would fuel the fact that Ross and Garcia are a dynamic duo and should work in tandem to maximize their potential

Lol whoops. I fixed L’Arachels but forgot to fix Natasha’s lmaoo

Ross now learns Blue Flame at L 10 Journeyman

I believe from Awakening onwards, Sol becomes a class skill of Heroes.

That’s pretty much exactly why I did it that way!

Actually, in this version of the game I feel like fighter has some merits over Barbarian/Pirate. Fighter has access to Berserker now so if you want Rosszerker you don’t have to necessarily go through Barbarian. Fighters have a higher Spd growth, too, though Barbarian gets a speed boost on promo. Fighter also has Rally Strength which is incredibly useful. Barbarian is still probably the way to go (esp if you want lots of money because Despoil and Ross’s high luck lol) but I feel like it’s not as one-sided a choice as in vanilla. Especially since Ross and Garcia split up for half the game, so you might want that Rally Strength on Eirika’s route.

Tana’s wyvern knight promotion looks INSANE! I know what she is going to promote to now.

Edit: and Eirika x Seth conversation in chapter 21 is lovely. Just look at them, dammit! They are perfect for each other!

@darkjaden825698 , neimi’s battle sprite color palette is messed up (sniper class):

Huh that’s weird. She should be using the default colors for that sprite, which are designed to be Neimi’s. I’ll look into that today

And I love Seth’s portrait after his promotion, by the way. It’s such a simple change, yet it’s so perfect.

Thanks, I spliced that one myself! Gonna try and do one for Duessel as well

From Awakening onward, Sol is typically a Hero class skill.
