Fire Emblem: Dark Stone - FE8, but you play as the bad guys! [Overhaul with a new story]

The postgame isn’t quite as well tested as the rest of the hack. On my own runs it seemed to work, but this might be some kind of weird issue. Did you let any units die throughout the campaign or something like that?

Excuse me but…Perseus my boy deserves to be a unit, it’s his right so I kindly ask you sir to make this rightful dream true in the postgame or I’ll shadowshot you even if you are a thousand kilometers away

If I remember correctly, Binks, Aias, Murray, O’Neil, Cavalier Monster, Dog Monster, and Dara(Didn’t recruit) are dead(Also I went to Lyon survives route)

Yeah, that’d probably do it. Each postgame map has a little skit with the playable units at the end, and the first one happens to involve Binks, so that’s probably what’s softlocking you. If you give me a few hours, I’ll see about fixing it over the day.

Every other hack has a playable mogall. The others deserve a chance to shine. Let the boy fulfill his role as Medusa’s dearest child.

Oh really, out of curiosity, which hacks? You’ll see I’m a lover at heart of playable monsteres so anything that haves them, I’ll play it it (By the way, I understand your point, I was just kidding)

Cerulean crescent has 5 or more monsteys. TMGC has a mogall. Call of the armor and drums of war have a bonewalker. Drums also has a pup which is of course a reskinned hellhound, cool weapons on him tho. Okay I’m tapped out but surely there are others

Edit: honorable mention to dark amulet with the playable wyvern (not wyvern rider). Tales of kotor also has a bonewalker (same character as CotA)

v1.22 released!

  • Fixed an issue where events that send all of a unit’s items to the convoy did not work properly if convoy was above 95 capacity. Thanks to Pushwall for finding the solution to this.
  • Fixed promoting to mage knight lowering Saaga’s staff rank. Doubles as a slight buff to mage knight (now gains D staves on promo instead of E)
  • Fixed an obscure oversight related to the new character added in v1.20.
  • Hopefully fixed issue where postgame would softlock if units are dead.
  • Applied QoL patch by ATHATH where Lyon holding the silver card applies the effect to the entire army.
  • Fixed a number of typos and text issues.
  • Easy mode is available again, repurposed into a “story mode” of sorts. Non-boss enemies are greatly weakened and casual mode is activated in this difficulty.

Was bored and decided to do a “duessel only run”

Spoilers

The legend, the myth, the man himself



Overall didnt have that many issues, i was using a old patch so the valter chapter was hell on earth from how easily valters runs into the archer but got through that eventually- had to restart the first time since duessel got a speed level which made it to were he killed the journyman the valter will go after instead if its health is low

By the way whenever i got a new unit if i could i would immediatly have them killed.

Minus that duessel himself didnt typically have issues, he has enough bulk and strength that he can deal with most units easily except those with magic/effective weaponry. But either being on good terrain, having healing items, or just wacking and killing them with the silver axe before they could hit him let him survive.

Overall was a little challenging for a couple chapters but as a whole it wasnt the hardest thing in the world

Also lyon is screwed he did get a bit of xp but that was all from dodging soooo-

Fuck me I guess
Kaga really doesn’t want me to play the rest of the postgame

Are you playing the 1.22 patch? Apparently that was supposed to be fixed.

I did something I thought would fix it. If it hasn’t, I’m all out of ideas. Maybe DM me your save and I’ll see if I can reproduce the issue and work from there?

Doing a lyon only now-

Spoilers

Currently about to do the narube river, lyons basically had no real trouble. He hits so dang hard that he oneshots most enemies and has good enough speed to also double. Only weakness is low bulk but on a forest it becomes almost impossible to hit him-

The only REAL issue he has is when someone with effective weaponry comes at him, he can easily deal with bishops still though due to having the reaver personal. Plus he actually has res so bishops dont slap him THAT hard. Just give lyon some concoctions and hes fine. Now when physical enemies have effective weaponry…still fine if hes on terrain but notably gerik was able to one shot him with a 67% hit rate-

He still got doubled though when saleh wasnt giving a support bonus so it was fine cause i could kill him first.

That was the most trouble i faced though. Im very curious to see what happened during the gorgon egg since lyons gone and everyone is dead

Was able to give him a draco shield and two goddess icons

I learned what happens when you have no units now-

First ever sighting of Auffle since the hack’s release, I think. Congratulations! Here’s hoping you can manage to keep going. If you’re able to continue, don’t kill him off, there’s a couple little things later if you have him.

can lyon solo the dark stone?

No cause he cant get past this brace-

Thus meaning he cant get to the other switch and beat the chapter-
Sad
“Emperor lyon of grado who managed to solo 80% of magvels people, stopped by 2 pillars-”

Oh, yeah. True. That bit.

Use Auffle for that part

Beat the game with the two

Spoilers

These last couple chapters had been a huge pain since they are clearly not intended to be beat by two units-

The mansel chapter as seen in a previous post is just unbeatable in a solo run, not the end of the world but sad since lyon could easily solo it all. Darkling woods is fairly easy since you can go through the bottom left and use eclipse on the draco zombie/myrth till theyre low enough lyon can one shot them both.

Then the duessel chapter which was hell on earth due to the amount of units in the chapter, how much damage they did, and how just accurate they were. Had to use light seals till duessel showed up and had lyon warp auffle in to kill him.

Auffle then dunked on the duessel boss fight by somehow procing greatshield almost every time-

Next couple chapters werent that bad, the epheraim/erika chapter had been super annoying but beatable

Welp, since Kaga doesn’t want me to play the postgame in my first playthrough, I guess I will just do a second playthrough!

Wait a minute… do you guys feel something off with my units…?
