If you have the DLC, Enchanter is the ultimate Support class with Lucina. Qi Adept for the 100% Bonded Shield, and Dagger access for the Poison Chain Attacks. The only downside is that you have to choose between Bonded Shield and Item Surge sometimes. But thats more if a case of "suffering from success" than an actual downside.
I just saw the Leif video as well and so I will comment on both emblems. Leif is emblem best for fist and magic units. Fist units have a advantage over magic, bow, and dagger units and when engage it will cover the other weapon triangle. This make arms shield very useful when you fighting different types of weapon users on the enemy phase. Also his build stat will make it easy for fist and magic users to wield heavier weapons. And lunica is good to give to Alear till Marth comes back.
Dual Support is one of the things that makes Bonded Shield so great, because it’s fairly easy to have a unit with Lucina avoid stack to the point where enemies are forced to attack the bonded ally. One great example is Wolf Knight Alear with Lucina and a Micaiah engraved Dagger, who can allow any adjacent cavalry units - because Alear supports everyone in the game - to sweep whole groups (big props to Mage Knight Anna) while not being attacked with barely any worries about positioning, while also giving +3 or +6 damage if doubling via Divinely Inspiring. The ability to dual strike with daggers is also nice to have. Other such good users would be Framme for Qi Adept’s 100% Bonded Shield for all classes with great supports in Chloé, Kagetsu and Anna for Dual Support and a free +10 avoid if bonded shielding for Alear to further avoid stack, and (quite unexpectedly) Bunet, as he has supports with Chloé, Merrin, Kagetsu, Pandreo, Anna and Jean, and can possibly get use from his personal with Favourite Food to keep Bonded Shielding for longer periods of time, though his poor speed doesn’t make him particularly open to avoid stacking
Framme as Martial Master was really good for me because she has great support options along with Crimson Cheer for Alear. Postgame I've had her go up to 300 avoid just for shits and giggles.
"All for one is an awful Emblem Attack." Says *you!* I have never knew the joy of jumping bosses in FE until I met Lucina. Easily my personal favorite Emblem Attack.
The idea is that, if you're in a position to where you can get off a full army bumrush with the All Might move, then you're already in a position to where you can just kill the enemy normally. That doesn't stop the move from being fun to pull off though.
I’d argue Ivy is one of the best users of Lucina since she actually wants the dex and luck, can cover a large range with thoron chain attacks, and can make a powerful center for a bonded shield flier ball thanks to her excellent support list really pumping up her avoid and being able to hit back hard with a dodge engraved (Lucina’s engrave is great) bolganone.
There's nothing quite like playing chapter 23 with Ivy+Lucina in the center and she's literally assisting with kills in both adjacent lanes at once lol.
I always just throw her on my dancer, makes him more survivable and gives him the good bond shield and lets him actually participate in damage anyone else she just feels like shes taking up an emblem slot.
@@Aeivious tbh it's probably not worth trading a turn of the most broken tool in the game (dance) for a turn of possibly the second most broken tool in the game (bonded shield), when you could just stick lucina onto an enchanter instead and have both alongside possibly the third most broken tool in the game (item/weapon surge) but i do admit it feels better to have a dancer capable of contributing beyond dancing even though it's basically never optimal
Bonded shield is certainly an ability I didn’t use nearly enough. Every time I did use it it was incredibly powerful but I just never did for some reason 💀
Even though Dex boost is usually a waste of a skill slot, I always have Hortensia inherit it to increase her staff conservation rate as well as feeding her skill books to cap her dex. Nothing better mass entraping/freezing and still having the staff afterwards, it's like I'm back in Thracia
My favorite thing I did in my first playthrough was inherit dual assist+ on warrior Anna the second I realized what it actually did, and then gave her the Sigurd emblem and a longbow in lategame. Nothing is more fun than 14 range chain attacks that can hit over walls and terrain features.
Fell Dragons don't count for Falchion's effectiveness against Dragons? WHAT IDIOT DECIDED THAT?! We killed the first Fell Dragon: GRIMA with that thing! I'm gonna astra crit someone, please hold me back.
Lucina from the Fire Emblem series since 2017, Rebecca Randall from Dragonar Academy, Kaguya Shinomiya from Kaguya-Sama: Love is War, Musube from Sekirei, Sera from Black Summoner, Mizuki Himeji from Baka & Test - Summon the Beasts, Selen Hemein from Suppose a Kid from the Last Dungeon Boonies Moved to a Starter Town, Lala Satalin Deviluke from To Love-Ru, Moka Akashiya from Rosario + Vampire, and Mei Hatsume from My Hero Academia are all very iconic characters with the same english voice.
Truly the best way of saying how the power of bonds (friendship) are some of the strongest ever. They can indeed change the future, challenge fate and seize control od the destiny. She works best oddly enough with Snipers or any Mounted unit.
So.... I love creating crazy builds and I did a míni bow + Bow Agility + lucina engrave + corrin + dexterity + Alcryst build. .... and he is kinda carrying me since chapter 11 on maddening I know that it's not optimal at all but it works with a low investment cost Yes he's normal damage is 2 or 3 per hit but he's super useful for chokepoints and Luna proc. But just like I said, it s not the best build by far, but in my humble opinion it's super fun and viable to use if his Strength is not good enough.
Probably one of the most versatile Emblems, almost every character can make at least some use of her stat bonuses and the nature of Bonded Shield and All For One means they don't really change in effectiveness depending on who uses it. Merrin is an obvious good candidate because dagger chain attacks and cav Bonded Shield, I also personally love Ivy as well because she wants all three stats and flying Thoron chain attacks go brrr. Alear is good too just because of synergy with Divinely Inspiring and having a support with every character. Hell you can even throw her on Seadall if you're really strapped for options, you just can't go wrong with Lucina.
I find the Avo bonus is actually incredibly important if you're planning to use her on Alear because everyone you bonded shield with is going to increase Alear's Avo very high and you don't have to worry about being really brazen with using it for more aggressive plays. Like a Griff Alear has the high Speed > Avo, gives guarenteed shield to your other fliers, can ignore terrain and move around/setup easier, and is a non-backup unit getting the Dual Strike benefits.
First off, I FINALLY beat Engage 2 days ago, on Mother’s Day. Every now and then, I put Lucina on Alfred and the Speed boost really helped him out. This was mostly so I could get Dual Support on him, since he was my main Sigurd user. Whenever he wasn’t off on his own, I was using strong lances near the party. The other skill I gave him was Speedtaker. The other time, I gave her to Seadall on most Paralogues and skirmishes so I could benefit from 100% chance Bonded Shield. On a similar topic, I feel Dual Support on Pandreo could potentially be absolutely busted, giving him 126 Avoid if the conditions are met.
One nice thing about Dual Support is that it can be used to guarantee that enemies target your bond shield user by flooring their hit or just making their target more attractive. Otherwise, correct assessment of the skill.
The dex bonuses from lucjna have the niche of increasingg proc chance for skills like Sol and Sandstorm. If Anna's skill and Divine Pulse are enough to make the luck bonus mediocre, then the proc skills make the Dex bonuses medicore too at least.
The max chain attack range is 13. A bow knight with a longbow given the two pairs of boots. (not sure if there’s two in higher difficulties)6+2+2+3=13. If there’s only one pair of boots it’s eleven.
Dexterity is meh at best since the only scenario you want that is either with the respective 4 lords or their younger siblings unique abilities that requires dexterity but still get outclass by other skills through dlc….. 25% chance to prompt sol is not worth it.
Lucina is not flashy at all, and most would consider her absolute garbage aside from Dual Assist+ and Dual Support. She is impactful, though, on basically anyone you can put her on. She's essentially meant to go on anyone you feel you should field but don't trust on the frontlines, which is why she's given to Alear.
bro what put lucina on martial master framme and giver her +20 avo and miciah engrave and you can have 4 unit be basically invinible for up to 4 turns that is wack af she is one of the best emblems in the game
If anything you should be putting her on a qi adept for 100% bonded shield. Her +4 speed can help many units reach new thresholds. She is mostly a support emblem but support in generally is really good
Dafuq? There's lots of characters who like a bit of extra dex (and/or luck) to fix up hit rates, or for extra proc chance on personal/class skills. It's just not an impactful stat to inherit because the opportunity cost of using up a skill slot is too high.
Diamant has enough build to use the Parthia effectively, allowing him to snowball if you want to invest in him. The extra speed she offers is also greatly appreciated on a unit with high build but average speed like him. Just because Dual Strike does nothing for Diamant doesn't mean that Lucina is wasted. Try thinking outside the box.
POINTY DEMON SPANKER
THE WAY THIS IS A REAL THING SHE SAID
Remind me a meme where everyone shout out their unique phrase for moves then shift to link saying “Bow”………
In this case…… stab
Swordy poke poke
Lucina on a mage cannoneer is literally guaranteed artillery support. I think
For 3-10 ranges I think… along with Soren and just bolting if the unit is backup *cough* Clanne

@@HolyAarom once I saw that 300 avoid, my mind immediately played Alm’s “You can’t touch me!” voice clip from Echoes.
Just from watching his streams it's always been clear to me that Excel doesn't really fully understand how Bonded Shield works or how good it is
"All for one is an awful Emblem Attack."
Says *you!* I have never knew the joy of jumping bosses in FE until I met Lucina. Easily my personal favorite Emblem Attack.
Just make sure you equip a strong sword, or if not on a sword user, that they have high strength.
The idea is that, if you're in a position to where you can get off a full army bumrush with the All Might move, then you're already in a position to where you can just kill the enemy normally. That doesn't stop the move from being fun to pull off though.

Bonded shield is certainly an ability I didn’t use nearly enough. Every time I did use it it was incredibly powerful but I just never did for some reason 💀
Probably bc of the 80% activation rate. Engage rng is so bad I never want to chance my units dying or not on rng. Unless Lucina is on a Qi Adept
Time to change fate?
No.
Time for a chain attack!
YIPEE
@@Kyronex0 shakxianapapb I hate the way the second and third games did that so much

someone wants to tell me why Parralel Falcion DOESNT get effectiveness against Fell Dragons like aoigwjgoiawge
I have a feeling you didn't play Awakening
@@noishhater9138 I HAVE, regular Falcoin doesn't but parralel and exalted do iirc
@@megarotom1590 I stand corrected I thought only exalted falchion was dragon effective
Fell Dragons don't count for Falchion's effectiveness against Dragons?
WHAT IDIOT DECIDED THAT?!

i gave lucina to ivy last time for the flier thoron chain attacks :)
counterpoint all for one hitting 36 times is really funny. just ignore the 5 minutes of setup
dual support on a dodge tank like yunaka or framme is kinda cracked tho
enchanter + lucina sounds wacky
Ah yes, the emblem that gets bullied by all my backup units for her skill...
Dexterity is meh at best since the only scenario you want that is either with the respective 4 lords or their younger siblings unique abilities that requires dexterity but still get outclass by other skills through dlc…..
25% chance to prompt sol is not worth it.
You can spend 2000SP to get a 2.5%-higher Crit Rate.
Loo Cena
Bond shield go brr
Lucina, she tries to be your Marth for midgame. But she'll never be Marth
Dual assist+ gaming
Don’t you technically get Lyn before Lucina?
It's the same thing because you start player phase with both
@@Pmu_Sh0wd0wn plus, Lucina’s Paralogue unlocks immediately after getting her, whereas Lyn’s is after Chapter 12.
Lucina is not flashy at all, and most would consider her absolute garbage aside from Dual Assist+ and Dual Support. She is impactful, though, on basically anyone you can put her on.
She's essentially meant to go on anyone you feel you should field but don't trust on the frontlines, which is why she's given to Alear.
bro what put lucina on martial master framme and giver her +20 avo and miciah engrave and you can have 4 unit be basically invinible for up to 4 turns that is wack af she is one of the best emblems in the game
If anything you should be putting her on a qi adept for 100% bonded shield. Her +4 speed can help many units reach new thresholds. She is mostly a support emblem but support in generally is really good
Bonded Shield is arguably the most broken ability in the entire game for anything resembling normal play (Micaiah's Augment wins in an LTC context).
The only unit who would benefit from the Dex bonus is Diamant, and Lucina on Diamant is a waste honestly.
Dafuq? There's lots of characters who like a bit of extra dex (and/or luck) to fix up hit rates, or for extra proc chance on personal/class skills. It's just not an impactful stat to inherit because the opportunity cost of using up a skill slot is too high.
