Didn't help Faval a damn bit, of course. Holyn!Faval really could've used that extra... something.
Sounds like Alec's Nihil or Dew's Bargain are some of the best assets for Faval skill-wise, even if they don't fix his low Skill. Although as a sniper he'll probably get good use out of Prayer... I really wish I knew where to find the patch that makes Sword Skills inheritable and useable by all, that'd really up Dew and Holyn's usefulness.
Lana and Lester actually almost never used Miracle the way Arthur and Tinny did; they just outright dodged. But "not dying" was sufficient to please me!
Sometimes I wonder about skillsets on those two. Since I've heard some players have trouble when Lana activates Charge with an enemy and gets herself killed.
The downside to Wrambush babies was if, say, Tinny failed to kill with the first crit, she wasn't guaranteed a second and she was likely to die on the counter. [...] And then Arthur had such awful Magic he often didn't kill with the first crit. In mid-game, it was VERY fun. In Endgame it kind of sucked.
Sounds like you really felt the lack of pursuit and low magic on these two. Did either of them have a magic ring? Some have told me that helps, but...
Have yet to get some truly useful skills for Del and Nanna. Bargain was nice for the Earth Sword and Awareness saved Nanna's bacon against a Ch 10 boss, but other than that...
I made a Finn!Delmund once, and I had to manage him like Jamke!Lester in that they could both die pretty easily and had a hard time killing things. Course that was my first playthrough and I don't think I ever gave him a good A rank sword to play with. (Finn!Nana was just fine, but I was stupid and let her keep the Prayer sword)
The key file that got deleted was the Holyn/Aira, Azel/Raquie, Finn/Briggid one, which kind of pissed me off. I'm replicating it now.
The last two sound very interesting, in both mechanics and headcanon. Are the other pairs decided? Anything crazy like Lex/Aideen?
