Fire Emblem If details – Weapon Triangle changes, new characters
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 9 Comments
Famitsu is following up on its coverage of Fire Emblem If last week with another update on the 3DS game. It’s revealed that the Weapon Triangle is seeing some changes, and we have information about new characters. All of the new details are rounded up below.
– Weapon Triangle has been a mainstay since 1996
– Changed from the standard swords over axes over lances to swords and magic, over axes and bows, over lances and dark weapons
– In other words, swords and magic are stronger than axes and bows; axes and bows are stronger than lances and dark weapons; lances and dark weapons are stronger than swords and magic
– As Fire Emblem If doesn’t feature weapon durability, the stronger the weapon, the larger the unit’s disadvantage in terms of abilities
– Ex: the Bronze Sword has no chance of landing a Critical hit, but has +10 Critical evasion, while the stronger Steel Sword has -5 evasion and makes it hard to use a Pursuit attack
– Only staffs restrict the amount of times they can be used
– New characters:
Felicia (voiced by Nozomi Sasaki) – A maid.
Joker (voiced by Junichi Suwabe) – A butler.
Gunther (voiced by Rokuro Naya) – A great butler.
Suzukaze (voiced by Daisuke Ono)
Saizou (voiced by Tarusuke Shingaki)
Kagerou (voiced by Rie Murakawa) – A shinobi.
– Felicia, Joker, Gunther, and Suzukaze appear as allies in both the White Night Kingdom and Dark Night Kingdom versions of the game
– Saizou and Kagerou are allies in the White Night Kingdom version
– Maids, butlers, and shinobi use dark weapons
– Dark weapons have weakening effects on enemy abilities when attacked
– Game has different weapons that can be used in each version
