Chapter 21 on conquest...tried 3 times, massacre every single go.

For my shame, I have only really gave this some major attention this week. Game is a lot harder than Awakening & I'm only playing on Birthright atm, which is the easier of the 3. God knows what sort of education Conquest is gonna give me.

Chapter 10, took a fair few goes to nail without losing anyone & the attempt I had before completing the chapter I lost someone on the boss. My new FE XL(perfect hinge thank god, unlike my MH4 one)nearly, nearly got snapped such was my rage at my own stupidity for not approaching him right.

Just finished chapter 12 this morning using the method Moot posted(surely its the only way?),created a choke point to nab as much exp as poss before Xander could bring the pain, as I don't think I got anyone atm that can really go toe to toe with him.

The my castle stuff, if I'm honest has only just started to grow on me. Until now it's felt like a distraction that I don't need, even more so with my limited time on the game, but I'm starting to appreciate it.

On the cupid side of things, atm I have 2 pairings on the go, 1 of which is pretty solid(Rinkah & Kaze) & to be different I'm trying to pair Corrin with Setsuna but it's a slower burner than the other pairing & their defence of each other is bloody woeful sometimes & I dread the "potential death" music each time it's played.

Was only supposed to spoiler the character name there, which was probably unnecessary anyway.

use yer dragon, I had camilla, to hover over next dragon stone and be tactical aa fuck.

only took 2 runs

I started getting murdered on this frigger, just managed to do it with one death which was shitty because I accidentally clicked 'stay' instead of 'escape', I'm not going through that trauma again.

FINISHED CONQUEST. Woooffttttt that was frigging hard at the end. Now on to revelations....

Watching the ending sequence now as it's been on standby since the train home.  I don't have the foggiest what's going on past the basics.  31hrs well spent though, perhaps I won't mash the buttons through the text on Conquest.

Start at branch of fate and keep yer save

Ta.

Endgame first bit is tough on Conquest, second bit not so much. I'm chapter 14 on revelations.

I've been loving revelations. It does make you view some key things in the other campaigns a little differently. Big one so far was reveal that

So I'm still on my first playthrough of Birthright on Hard/Classic and pretty much near the end of it, barring any twist Oddworld Stranger de-pantsing style. 

I only unlocked paralogues 2 and 4 last night, having only done P1 early on. So I assume now that paralogues are only unlocked when (spoiler) I've done fuck all grinding, only re-classed maybe half a dozen characters and have not done any scouting/challenge missions and only one or two invasions. 

Have I missed anything of critical importance?

Not as far as I know.  I did three invasions and two or three paraloges by the end.  I did bundles of grinding though (at least one optional battle between every chapter). and reclassed everyone at level 18.  I'm surprised you're not struggling without the extra stats.

Chapter 19 on Revelation now Hard/Classic, lot easier than Conquest, finding it kind of easy to be honest.

Just watxh out for that final boss lads
