Back with a Vengeance: WAIFU Bernadetta 

Caspar continues to take everything I ever loved

I did the dank bishop casper route. Didn't like it, now hes benched unable to recover.

Rengor the king

Could I learn this power?

@@Stachelbeeerchen >unable to recover Just get him to C faith then he CAN recover. Literally. For 5 uses.

I think hilda is intentional irony

@@ecl4396 That's not what I mean .-. Her personality leaves her least fit to fight specifically due to the fact that she avoids doing anything, including fighting, yet she slaughters on the battlefield. I never said her character was bad at fighting and yet she was a good unit

@@ecl4396 it means exactly what it says on the tin

Hilda is considered good?

@@ecl4396 well you know how a pacifist monk would not be pretty willing to fight, same concept, some people because of their personality would not just want to fight

The legend himself. Bernie is a god, both as a person and as a unit

Huh.

HI JOHNE

WaIt tHe PeRsOnA GuY lIkEs FiRe EmBlEm?!?!?!?!

@@novagears3604 yes

Wokest: ohko Death Knight with Caspar

Bespoke: somehow getting ignatz to kill the death knight

Bespokest: OHKO the death knight with mercenary lysithea

@@JReds-bw9kg I've done this.

Transcendent Brain: I LIVE

OH GOD SHE ANGY

Stay away! *Critical* *219*

I just forced my Bernie to take some levels in the Armored Knight class, so she can take a half-decent beating. It's working out okay for me.

Joe isn't a lord, he's a God

AkameGaKillfan777 true true

Ian Leather He was Poseidon. Checking out Fodlan.

@@FilthyCasualty Poseidon clearly didn't stay long until he realized how messed up it all was

Ian Leather Yeah, he was actually smart.

Yea that's why she's an archer. Something something Roy being a 15 year old.

And at 2:06 you see they also made her "big thicc"

It was great

As someone who's been getting back into FEH recently to stock pile orbs for Ingrid I appreciated the "FEH Ares but purple" joke toward the end.

I should've known it was you Jake. No yikes gif?

Personally, I found the joke density in the editing to be a bit too high in contrast to Mekkah's very no-nonsense script. Maybe something to consider if you're editing more videos for him. Very clean visuals however, A+ on that front

That ain't Falco, just Jake.

People really sleep on poor Claude's. Pass access gives him unparalleled map reach.

Harold Duggan Bernie gets pass too and before timeskip.

@@XGame80 true though she can't combine it as easily with flying and bowfaire nor gets wind god.

Harold Duggan she can become a wyvern or falconknight pretty easily and she has deadeye which is the same range as wind god

@@ninjakirby777 I mean I'm not anti Bernie it's just I don't think she's as good as Claude which is pretty much a compliment since I'd argue Claude is definitely one of the strongest units in the game and imo the strongest. Also she can become a Pegasus or falcon fairly easily but B or A rank axes with a bane is no easy task for wyvern. Plus she'll lack bowfaire until S bows and that eats a precious skill slot and so does pass.

And probably secondary's Pit

Well she does love carnivorous plants

200+ damage via crit is relatively easy in 3H: you just need to have 67 damage pre crit. Dimitri is just bonkers because he hits over 300+ on a regular basis when he procs his crest.

@@l.n.3372 Or be my dimitri and only proc it when using atrocity

​@@l.n.3372 Yeah his crest proc isn't exactly a regular basis. It's 5% on combat arts only, and he's so strong it's rare you should be using them, unless you just want the Atrocity meme hits.

180 on flying enemies using silver bow

Dedue and Cyril are even better

happy birthday!

I’d say happy birthday but I’m just a random guy from the Internet that you’ll probably never meet. Eh screw it happy birthday anyway.

Was just about to comment something very similar! What are the chances? Happy birthday, April 30 brother! Lol

Happy birthday I like bernie too She is cute

Happy Cake Day

Ingrid:what the hell did you do to her?

Byleth: Vantage + Batallion Wrath + a crit set up Also she gets vengeance

Crazed Cynic Cant wait for BD2

Glad more people recognized it

Ikr!I wasn t expecting that

Bravely default OST is awesome, and this one is top tier in it

Yeah, when I realized I was listening to Iron Blue Intention, I was super surprised.

Which one is the op meta build

I'll be honest, I think it's better without it.

He uses it on and off, really.

No! You're supposed to be an armoured unit! Haha Wyvern Lord go swoosh

Dedue and Cyril learn it too.

Imagine most of what was said about vengeance Bernadetta but with like 25 more HP and a handful more strength to work with. He has a lot less utility over all since he doesn't get things like encloser or curved shot, and there's the whole disappearing act / only available on one route as well.

To be fair, dedue supports a more defensive build, everyone hates cyril, but at least it's being brought to light

Mason Abney yeah, imagine how amazing it would be. I’m at chapter 21 on BL maddening and chapter 13 was stupid hard, mostly because there’s just 1 useless unit when you could’ve had Dedue

@@AkameGaKillfan777 Cyril sucks and not worth to train him at all.

I think I never actually healed her HP until my 3rd playthrough lol.

Why in the name of Ashunera arch sages have 32 speed cap?

sono un idiota because they thought it was funny that mages should be as slow as armor knights in both attack speed and movement, (or even slower somehow; looking at Rhys getting doubled by them at base), in a game where they actually gave enemy units a decent Res stat to especially shrug off magic attacks and nerfing the hell out of thunder magic for no reason.

I think it should also be noted that RD Soren doesn't have a staff rank initially, and when he does pick one up, it's an E. For comparison, Micaiah picks up a C automatically upon promoting, and Elincia shows up with an A. When you're a Radiant Dawn mage, I think it's safe to say you need more than combat to hold your own, and an E-rank upon promoting ain't gonna cut it.

His speed cap suck ass in FE10, and he nearly gets OHKO from ballista in that one chapter in part 3 on hard mode

Personally, I think he is way over rated in Path of Radiance, I would even go so far as to say he is the worst mage. The worst supports in the game(because they come so late), adapt procs too rarely in the early game, garbage weapon ranks, and there is no good way to keep him alive in the early game. I know he can be really good for some LTC strategies, but for the vast majority of players, he is a late game mage in a game where mages are weak in the late game. Ilyana can abuse shade to get chip damage, Tormod has built-in boots, Cailill can use all siege tomes(effectively letting you train no mage and still get to abuse them on the few maps they are great), and Bastian can..... well maybe Soren isn't the worst. I actually forget Bastian even existed. I feel like a lot of people want to like Soren so they point to his LTC/speedrun strategies while ignoring that those are irrelevant to 99.99% of players.

But she is total waifu tho

ٰ but her backstory

Well if he gets attacked by magic he's dead.

@@shibeking1809 that applies to all knight archetypes though

@@shibeking1809 yeah i tried that when fighting him in vw. Turns out he has enough hp to survive even two hits and kills any magic unit with a ranged weapon and if using a bataillioneffect or a defense adjutant counts as redeeming factors for bernie than using a holy water redeems dedue

@@B_A-tr he does? He died to me in 2 hits just fine without criticals.

Depends on whether or not we're consulting the JoJo fanbase... @Shibe King His Personal Skill grants +4 Defense when choosing to Wait. You also get a Leather Shield and a Defense-boosting Battalion before Ch 2, so Dedue can be quite the sturdy tank, even on 0% Growths funnily enough.

It is still the first preview when you hover over the video, so it kinda works out.

@@DavidKyokushin Not gonna lie, that definitively got me.

They're about the same really; they'll both be one shotting things easily, ironically enough it can be harder to get Dedue to low HP just because of his good defense and personal skill (this still isn't too hard to deal with; maddening enemies are still really strong, but it's still worth stating). The main issue is that Dedue is route specific; so they only really match up on one route, and even then there's no reason to avoid using them both as the powerhouses that they are. Personally I like doing ironman runs of CF (since there's no hunting by daybreak) so Bernie is the only vengeance user I get.

@@Lady-V The main thing Dedue has over Bernie other than sheer stats is his lack of a crest. It's really easy to manage his HP if you give him something like the Aegis Shield from Felix' paralogue or a relic lance. He'll be tanky enough for enemies and still take damage after combat from his equipment. Bernadetta still keeps the availability in multiple routes and things like the Devil sword exists but overall Dedue makes Vengeance a lot easier to use.

@@g.n.s.153 (To start with I haven't played in months so this must be a pretty old thread so I don't really remember what I said in the replies here, so sorry if I repeat myself but here are my thoughts given what you've said) I don't think not having a crest is that big of a deal there are the aforementioned devil weapons, but also you really only need to get Bernadetta hit once and you're fine, archers are especially good for that given they'll do a lot of damage and poison strike will often bring her close to if not exactly 1HP given the 20% slice it takes off. However most any enemy will do since the enemies on maddening are so beefy, and as long as you do the math that's not a problem for her most of the time. Though of note is that I give any HP stat boosters I have to my vengeance users anyway since they use them better than other characters (damage from vengeance along with the better survivability) so my view on Bernadetta's survivability is based on that.

@@Lady-V Yeah this video got re-recommended to me after all this time and I wanted to see where was the discussion was at. Even in a single-player game without updates, the meta can change over time. The Devil Weapons are just too much of a hassle for me, they require Argarthium and since there's only the Sword and Axe version available she'll have to go through her banes to even use them in the first place. Even with D rank it's just not worth it most of the time. Early you can use poison strike to your advantage but later the best way to set up is the Blessing Gambit forcing Miracle on her and if she's not flying she has access to Guard adjutants as well. I just prefer Dedue purely from the Vengeance standpoint. He streamlines the process a lot and can be easily healed to tank another turn if need be. Bernie beats him in a lot of other things though and that would definitely matters if I was to compare those 2 in general.

LTC movement chaotic fun.

yuri is so broken lol he carried my CF maddening

Yuri's broken, but have you SEEN Valkyrie Constance with Bolting?

It’s nice to see her get a lot more confident after time skip.

but she isn't even a one note character. in her supports (not sure which ones) she talks about the abuse from her father, count varley, and that's the reason for her reclusive nature. she's honestly one of my favourite characters storywise. god i love this game LMAO

That's Sniper tho

LunaProc it plays it off as a joke and then goes “actually this is really sad :’(“ as if we havent been laughing at it

It's really depressing because Marianne has one of the best character arcs in the game while Bernedetta just crash and burns. Holy fuck my entire opinion on Bernie just got flipped flopped by a reddit post.

This post will never not be relevant old.reddit.com/r/fireemblem/comments/eufmne/a_long_analysis_of_the_many_misconceptions_people/

DAE ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION ARE THE SAME THING!?

LunaProc tbh I don’t like either :P. They aren’t the type of characters I gravitate towards I guess

I think it's more the characters started getting way more lines than before at that time but didn't do as much as some earlier characters with them.

@@CoyoteXLI it's not evem that imo. To me it's the combination of Crit quotes, level up quotes and simillar things. Those tend to reflect the character "gimmick", wich as a result is constantly hammered on the player. A good example is Cordelia. Most of the time she explicitly gets over Chrom by the time she marries someone else, but her random quotes don't get updated, so many people still thinks that she never get over it, because they constantly see her fangirling over Chrom. The problem whit many "modern character" is not that they have less depth compared to other characters. Is that their depth require you to dig a bit and their more tropey aspect are put front and center in general gameplay, wich lead people to not want to dig deeper(and make them already biased if they do dig)

@@noukan42 Sounds like a pitfall to me.

@@noukan42 This whole comment fits characters like Leonie to a tee. In her supports she's a lot more than just the Jeralt fangirl people portray her as, but because 99% of her dialogue in the main story and in the monastery mentions Jeralt in some capacity, many people write her off as such and as her being rather two dimensional. Granted, her constantly mentioning Jeralt is a legit problem, but people saying she's "one note" without even reading a single support shouldn't say that without properly looking into a character beforehand.

As much as I like him, Sain sadly is one. Sylvain however, is a nice upgrade to the archetype.

InGrEe

Have people been pronouncing it wrong?

a human being from the earth Mangs keeps pronouncing it like Ing-Gree

@@KittyConnie5 is that just his accent?

How to set up a proper Vantage build: don't fucking die

That was an insanely fun character to use. Basically a chapter 1 holy weapon that makes you invincible

What is there to say? His movement kinda sucks at first so it's good to give him the paragon ring to make up for him seeing less combat, but he basically murders everything. It's fun, but its not interesting enough for a WAIFU video.

Mage-Bernadetta, Katarina and Morgan. I swear they must be related somehow.

@@ferno056 Thunder-Girls Works for me, cuz I look like female Morgan with the personality and hobbies of Bernadetta :^3

So I wasn't the only one who made her a mage

Made her a dark knight on my first playthrough, just to get that vengeance which is still technically a mage right?

God, but he's such a piece of shit though. :(

Blazing Knight disapproves

I see your Makalov and raise you a Meg
