Gilliam, my most favorite unit When I played SS as a kid, my Gilliam was an absolute beast. Crit machine, took basically no damage from everything. Glad to see him get some attention.
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite new series on YT. It’s a nice change of pace from watching JRose11 Pokémon solo runs, and you’re such an energetic commentator! Can’t wait for the Knoll run so he can take his revenge for all the times he’s going to die
Some constructive criticism; At 4:35 when you are displaying Gilliam's stats at lvl 20 vs. the expected values, could you add headers to the expected values? It makes it easier for the viewer to understand which ones to compare to. Thanks, and amazing work as always!
My favorite Fire Emblem game. It gives you much more freedom when it comes to gameplay compared to most other Fire Emblems, and the branching promotions was so cool back then, and still is.
My suggestion for next time is to go with Franz, arguably the best unit in the game. Edit: Just realized Knoll is going to be so much fun with his 0 base luck, 20% growth, and the only Sacred Twin to not be effective against monsters meaning he can’t even go summoner.
50:20 I believe Excelblem mentioned a RNG manipulation trick to make the runesword spawn in the tower. Since all this does is save real world time, I think it’s a forgivable exception to the no glitch rule.
Great work. I like how you show your failures too, it's really tough planning out the runs, amazing that Garm was the solution. Can't wait for the next run!
Great stuff as always! As for the allowance of another elixir for the Demon King, I think it's fine. It always baffled me that you weren't allowed a break there anyway. Personally, I think you'd be fine even taking it a step further and allowing a save state there after clearing Lyon a certain amount of times. After a certain point, the ability to clear Lyon has been demonstrated handily and is just more tedium for you to get through without proving anything else. Either way, keep up the great content. Looking forward to the next one!
I will add, the way rules are written are 1 healing item per map, not per chapter, so you wouldn't even need to change the rules for the extra one to be usable, but I fully understand if you'd like to keep the current way of doing it.
I would say Great Knight has one other small advantage over the General: Starting with D axes means Gilliam would have immediate access to the Halberd, whereas going General he can't wield it until he levels up his Axe rank once. It's a small thing, and effective weaponry isn't nearly as impactful in Sacred Stones as it is in some other games, but it's still worth mentioning.
These solo character runs are so fun to watch! The sacred stones was the first FE game I ever played and I remember quitting the game because I accidentally got Natasha killed by the ballista on the map before you reunite with Ephiraim lol
Regarding additional potions on the last chapter, ngl, I kinda like seeing you struggle with the Elixir usage lol. That being said, maybe if it's absolutely needed *coughKnollcough*, you could make an exception and allow bringing an Elixir and a Vulnerary? that way it's some extra healing, but not much. Personally hoping for a Pegasus Knight run next (Tana?).
Thank you for the feedback! I do agree the additional challenge of the final map does add to the drama of it all. Pegasus Knights will be a very interesting class for these!
Absolutely loving this series man! My only thing is that with the pacing things feel great until I find myself falling off with attempt after attempt in the end! You might wanna check your retention curve and see what that looks like, maybe if other people feel the same could try switching it up! Just a bit of advice as I’d love to see you succeed as much as you can!
Hey man, I appreciate the comment tremendously! Makes me very happy to see how much people care about these videos! I've been keeping a very close on eye on all of this and so far, there isn't really a fall off in terms of people who make it up to that point. It seems that I usually tend to have a dropoff around the 8-10 minute mark. So, I'm trying to identify what I can do better with every video! This one was a little heavier on the commentary on the latter end, to be fair, as I kind of wanted to experiment with a little more since I've received very positive response on that in earlier videos. When my retention curve comes out for this video I'll see if maybe I wasn't too heavy handed this time around! But thank you for the tip and the concern it's always quite appreciated :)
Great video. I loved Sacred Stones as a kid and these are perfect challenge runs: tough but fair rules, no cheese, no BS. Just you pitting your game knowledge and problem-solving against anything the game can throw at you. You've earned a subscriber and if you keep making such great videos I think you'll soon be one of the top FE RUclipsrs.
Nice, well played :) BTW, S Ranking also gives a passive +5% crit to all the weapon line, so when fishing for crits you generally wanna use the slayer weapon of the line you S ranked, uniess the extra might matters :p
I am loving this series! Your commentary has great energy and the videos have a good pace. I've watched all 4 in the last 2 days. Looking forward to the next videos!
I'm so ready for the Ewan and Amelia runs. I always ran the those two with Ross as an unstoppable trio of death: Warrior, General, and Druid. Can't wait to see the paths chosen!
Great video! I've always loved the Great Knights/General units, tanks are just awesome. Good times with Gilliam in SS, also glad to see you learned some lessons from previous attempts! I'm guessing it would have been pretty much impossible on the first run, the rng just wasn't in your favor. Looking forward to who you do next. If you keep up with going through the different classes then I'm guessing Amelia or Vanessa or maybe even Ephraim. Ether way, I'm excited to see the next one.
Thank you, I'm happy you enjoyed the video. That first attempt was pretty much a lottery ticket lmao. I'm still not sure who is next, but I got a couple of characters shortlisted already.
I love challenge runs in this game. Perfect for a little extra difficulty. I'm actually currently doing a run where I cannot enter any shop/armory/arena at all. Only allowed to use items that come with characters/maps/rewards. Pretty fun so far.
39:06 That line has a VERY good delivery, I felt it in my heart Glad to see the man Gilliam in action, I never tried using him too much in my runs. I want to see the men Gerik or García in this kind of solo runs next. Keep it up, Kratos! 👍🏻💕💪🏻
In regards to the healing item mulligan for the Fomortis fight, maybe set the rule up so that you can't do that until you fail the fight at least twice. Could even be more if you prefer. The idea is that it makes you still try the final boss the current way, but gives you the leeway for characters that may struggle more.
I think a Myrrh solo run would be fun, because of how unique she is. Or, as a funny idea, you could mod in one of the FE6/FE7 characters for a unique FE8 solo. Think how Mangs does his randomized runs.
Yeah, Myrrh without any form of manipulation of tampering on my end is an impossible run, but we'll see how we end up handling that run when I get there.
@@kratosmvn_ you can probably get to the first monster map before her dragonstone runs out, Myrrh can use some monster weapons acquired through the Enemy control glitch since her own class is categorized as a monster class
I would like to extend a formal apology to the Knoll Fan Club... I would love to say that all this bullying won't happen again, but that would be a lie, I'm sorry 😂
Gilliam as a general is a BEAST ! And when you find the boots in the desert (around the fort in the middle of the map) you have a general Gilliam as mobile as cavalery.
These videos are amazing and super cool manly to me cuz I haven't seen much of these videos on RUclips at all keep up the good work and glad to hear to your gana do a tutorial about how to set up this thing cuz I want to do these runs my slef and one last thing would love to see ether an archer run or a jashua run next
If you need a good reference for the reset counter and tier list rankings then you should check out Scott's Thoughts. He does pokemon runs on RUclips but will typically do multiple playthroughs with the same pokemon to optimize strategy. As a side note I am curious as to what Fire Emblem games you have. Would love to see a Soren only run at some point.
Thanks for the tip I'll check it out for sure! I can do pretty much all FE games. There are a few I haven't played yet, but I'm planning to get to them on this channel eventually. But I have played PoR and RD so... Soren is a possibility in a near future.
That would be pretty interesting to do. Giving you different things to do aside from killing. Having the option to atleast steal stuff. If you were to do that run would you rather do rogue or assassin?
That's a huge question. It's one of those classes where I don't think there is a 'right answer' so I'd have to analyse a little further and I guess I'll keep that for the video itself ;)
Ewan only run for a dark mage that isn't quite as bad as Knoll? We've seen the weapon triangle and anima so far in these runs, all that's left now is light, dark, and archers
The low spawn rate on the runesword is surprising to learn about. They showed up so often for me in the first floor of the tower, I used to farm those when I played this game as a kid! (Not bragging, I am legitimately shocked!)
#GILLIAMSWEEP even my mom congratulated you on this win! I never use knights enough and I so feel bad for Gilliam because he does tank very well on the early levels while everyone else is still a bit squishy. I will keep on championing for Knoll's revenge, but until then may I also suggest Artur or Vanessa for other runs? And I do agree with other people that you should be allowed a fresh elixir batch on the very last Fomortiis encounter, as it Is a separate map of it's own and you already have enough trouble with the previous stage. Saw this uploaded the second I got home but had to take care of some appointments first and it was so rewarding to finally get to watch it, keep up the great work! Probably not until the actual playable characters are all accounted for, but do you have in mind to use the Creature Campaign unlockables such as Glen and Ismaire someday? Just out of curiosity really.
Thanks to your mom, I guess haha! Artur and Vanessa will be quite interesting, and thank you for the feedback. I'm happy you enjoyed the run too. I'm quite interested in getting around to playing with the extra creature campaign characters since some of them seem quite strong!
Hey! First time ever getting a shout out in a video! Kind of a shame for old Gil my last comment didn't come earlier tjough. Well anyway I still need to finish the video
A shame for Gilliam! But I think it made the video overall better cause it gave us an angle that required a little bit less luck :) Gotta shoutout y'all when I do get a good tip like that :)
Here is another thing you might like to know if you didn't already. Chapter 18 can actually screw you over if the last enemy dies from the fire panels. Even though it kills the enemy it won't count as complete so you'll have to redo the entire map of that nappens.That Or at least that is what I have heard. I've never actually had this happen to me so I can't confirm if this is 100% true or not, but I thought I would warn you just in case.
Gonna be quite interesting when we start getting into units with duplicate weapon types or classes. Right now all four use something different outside of Gilliam having swords and aces too once he promoted. lol I hope Marisa can beat Erika in the sword-using department.
@@kratosmvn_ tbh its actually really easy.... until you to the chap with the madking and you realize the kiddy gloves are off lol havent been able to get pass the invasion on the boat with all the calavary yet ( namely because its really hard to have enough units able to not only tank the hits coming but also kill them ) all while having enough healing to deal with them since you cant turtle due to the AI charging at you in groups of 4 or more ever 1-3 turns
@@kratosmvn_ after seeing the video, yup I was correct. But you did do bit of fudge with his weapon skill levels originally. Thankfully re-run cleared that all up
Can't wait for the enivitable Franz and or the Colm and neimi one I suggest since the first erika run (reason being I don't think separate they can bith beat fe8 in a sólo run but together they certainly can)
After doing the Franz run, what are your thoughts on doing Gilliam but as a GK? Considering that you used Garm anyway, do you consider Great Shield and Higher Caps was the play? I get so invested on your runs hahaha Love them all!
Good question, I still think it does, but it isn't as big of a deal as I'd previously imagine maybe. A test run would be in order later down the line. Thank you, glad you've been enjoying them.
Gilliam, my most favorite unit
When I played SS as a kid, my Gilliam was an absolute beast. Crit machine, took basically no damage from everything. Glad to see him get some attention.
Welp, he's the prince of all saiyans for a reason
Gilliam truly is a beast!
Super Saiyan Gilliam 😂
never used gilliam. probably because he looks pretty bad when you compare him to boswin.
Let me join the Gilliam Fan Club, he was My fav too, almost solo'd every map with him
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite new series on YT. It’s a nice change of pace from watching JRose11 Pokémon solo runs, and you’re such an energetic commentator!
Can’t wait for the Knoll run so he can take his revenge for all the times he’s going to die
Thank you for the huge praise! I'll do my best to keep making this series fun for all of you! :D
Hilariously, according to Serenes, there's a Runesword drop from a Wight reinforcement on the final chapter.
Right after I freaking need it 😩
Celebrate his dodging with a Knoll solo run? 😝
He'll have to hack in Flux tomes but yes!
This sounds hilarious and super difficult but could provide some interesting gameplay given Knoll can become a summoner.
Please don't make me do this 😂😂😂
YES
Do a Canas run before you do Knoll just to mess with people.
And yes I know Canas is from another game, but that just makes it funnier
Some constructive criticism; At 4:35 when you are displaying Gilliam's stats at lvl 20 vs. the expected values, could you add headers to the expected values? It makes it easier for the viewer to understand which ones to compare to. Thanks, and amazing work as always!
Thank you for the feedback! I do appreciate the heads up. I will make sure to rectify this oversight in future runs. Thank you for that :)
@@kratosmvn_ of course! Keep up the good work! Looking forward to the next video!
The fire tiles don’t actually crit, the crit sfx plays when they die to it tho
Oh! Thank you for the information! I had no clue! Very much appreciated.
Gilliam is based. I've got a lot of respect for him after being one of my best units in an Ironman Run I've played.
Glad to see him get some love!
Gilliam deserves all the love :D
My favorite Fire Emblem game. It gives you much more freedom when it comes to gameplay compared to most other Fire Emblems, and the branching promotions was so cool back then, and still is.

Great work. I like how you show your failures too, it's really tough planning out the runs, amazing that Garm was the solution. Can't wait for the next run!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy this added detail. I think it's important to show all sides of these runs!

That is very true, I didn't come into play here, but it is worth mentioning.
I love these series thus far. I would love to see my favorite character attempt the solo run. I wanna see miss Neimi.
Glad you're enjoying! :D Neimi might be soon 👀
@@kratosmvn_ Haha in that case I’ll need to keep my eye out for the Neimi video :3
These solo character runs are so fun to watch! The sacred stones was the first FE game I ever played and I remember quitting the game because I accidentally got Natasha killed by the ballista on the map before you reunite with Ephiraim lol

Thank you for watching the videos! I'm glad you're enjoying them :D
I haven't watched the whole video yet but I'm subbing just because you call him the Great Gilliam too.
I'm trying to put some respect on his name!
Great video like usual! Reminds me of when I played fe8 when I was younger and Gilliam was one of the main units in my army.
Thank you! Gilliam was always one of my main units as a kid.
I keep meaning to try this myself but I'm still to get around to it. Looking forward to the tutorial
Solid run as ever
It's a lot of fun! Hopefully the turorial sets you on the right track.
Thank you!
I'm so ready for the Ewan and Amelia runs. I always ran the those two with Ross as an unstoppable trio of death: Warrior, General, and Druid. Can't wait to see the paths chosen!
The trainees are probably gonna be some of the most interesting runs given their unique promo options
absoultely waiting for the trainees, definetly my highlight of SS when I was younger
@@kratosmvn_ Amelia General may actually make sense now! What a world to live in
Warrior??? Sir, you don't turn Ross into a Warrior, Berserker is the only viable choice.
Imagine managing to pick the single worse promotion path for of these terrible (though kinda fun) units.

Glad you enjoyed it, it came from the heart 😂
I CAN'T wait to get to Gerik eventually haha! Thank you :)
What a legend, I love this game and watching your runs just makes me happy.
Thank you 🙏 I'm glad you're enjoying! Knowing it brings you joy is the greatest reward!
Great video once again. Love how you say And Haxes for hand axes 😂 that spoonerism hits me often too. 😊
Thank you! Haha yeah, it's always been a thing I've had a hard time with, especially when I speak quickly, glad to know I'm not alone 😅
This guy was the mvp in my Iron man run. Once he gets he's speed going he becomes an absolute tank.
He's a very very strong unit for sure.
I love this series so much, thank you for your hard work
Thank you for watching! Glad you're enjoying it.
Great video as always! Maybe try a pegasus or cavalier unit next so we can compare a mounted unit to the infantry and armored units ?
Thank you! I'm planning mounted and flying soon enough ;) we'll be able to compare in not too long :)

Great Video! I really love this series you're doing. I'm looking forward to the next one

I am just gonna say right now, since the game is kinda easy, when are we gonna have a Knoll solo run?
Is it just me that want that?
I think there are many of you that want to see it... lol
@@kratosmvn_ sorry to hear that, we all just want to see how can you win with him if he is so bad. probably
RUclips didn't notify of this run, so I guess I'm subscribing and enabling notifications. I'd say try a flier next btw. Either Tana or Vanessa.
Thank you for the sub! I'm keen to do a flyer quite soon, I'm interested at how quickly they'd get it all done.
In regards to the healing item mulligan for the Fomortis fight, maybe set the rule up so that you can't do that until you fail the fight at least twice. Could even be more if you prefer.
The idea is that it makes you still try the final boss the current way, but gives you the leeway for characters that may struggle more.
That's a good idea. It can also be factored into the ranking of it all.
Demon king: i can summon a bunch of Zombies
First Gilliam: Holy Shir
Gilliam with Gram: omae wa mou shindeiru
2nd Gilliam goes Brrrrrr
Holy Shir
I think that since the Demon King map is technically a different map, you should be allowed to refresh your healing items.
Thanks for the feedback!
Let's goooo I've been waiting for this. Hoping for a joshua or ephraim run too.
Glad to see you excited :)
Both should be fun runs. Can't wait to also try them out.
I think a Myrrh solo run would be fun, because of how unique she is. Or, as a funny idea, you could mod in one of the FE6/FE7 characters for a unique FE8 solo. Think how Mangs does his randomized runs.
Is it even possible for Myrrh to do it? Won't she run out of stone uses waaaay before endgame?
@@AlbRomano That is true…
With the límited dragon stones is not posibles unless you make them pursheable
Yeah, Myrrh without any form of manipulation of tampering on my end is an impossible run, but we'll see how we end up handling that run when I get there.

As a representative of all 3 members of the Knoll Fan Club, I demand you stop being such a mean bully.
I would like to extend a formal apology to the Knoll Fan Club... I would love to say that all this bullying won't happen again, but that would be a lie, I'm sorry 😂
Imagine all the flashbacks from previous failed attempts after seeing how Garm can do the last battle without any RNG praying 😂
It was a little painful, not gonna lie. lol
Knoll dodging three attacks??? He is trying to convince you to make him the next solo run.
He's doing his best to get my attention that's for sure!
I know generals are "pitfalls" but I don't care- armored units are 10/10 in my mind. Thank you for this upload.
Armour units are the underappreciated GOATs
Recently found these videos and actually love these challenges! Would love to see a solo Colm run sometime or Innes too
I'm very happy you stumbled upon them and I'm glad you're enjoying them :)
My boy is back with a banger
Only Bangers allowed! 👌😄
damn, you ain't got no idea how happy I'm to see this, always loved my boy gilliam ^^.
I'm very glad this made you happy :) Gilliam is great!
Hey, how about the next video, we get a Knoll only run? I mean, the poor guy got so much crap dying in every single run :'(
I think he needs to suffer just a little bit more before his eventual redemption... ;) lmao
You should then do the Ewan run immediately after the Knoll run just to show the difference in power
Do Tana next please, a wyvern knight in the late game would be sick and I love Tana, she is great!
I love Tana too! She is one of those I'll get to soon.
@@kratosmvn_ Yeah.
The Rennac run is gonna be interesting to say the least
Can't wait to see my favorite disgruntled thief go at it
Rennac is a character that I think will be quite a fun challenge for sure.
Franz run should be much easier than our BOY Gilliam. It was a great video!

You do realise that by saying this he is gonna dodge like 10 times next playthrough just as payback right?
Yes. The Kongol of Fire Emblem. We love him. Gilliam SMASH.

Ross and Gilliam are my favorite characters from Sacred Stones so this was a good challenge
Glad you enjoyed it :D
those And Haxes really coming in handy :D
They truly are! 😂👌
The low spawn rate on the runesword is surprising to learn about. They showed up so often for me in the first floor of the tower, I used to farm those when I played this game as a kid!
(Not bragging, I am legitimately shocked!)
YOU SEE! I PREDICTED IT! Pablo crit? AH! GREAT SHIELD!
Great Shield came in handy there for sure haha
For future runs, you can rig a guaranteed rune sword in the tower of valni, Excelblem did it in his 0 strength and 0% strength growths run.
Yeah, a few people have suggested that for future runs.
Gilliam's death quote is so badass.
Dude goes down swinging!
Can't wait for the next one.
Glad you enjoyed!
#GILLIAMSWEEP even my mom congratulated you on this win! I never use knights enough and I so feel bad for Gilliam because he does tank very well on the early levels while everyone else is still a bit squishy. I will keep on championing for Knoll's revenge, but until then may I also suggest Artur or Vanessa for other runs? And I do agree with other people that you should be allowed a fresh elixir batch on the very last Fomortiis encounter, as it Is a separate map of it's own and you already have enough trouble with the previous stage.
Saw this uploaded the second I got home but had to take care of some appointments first and it was so rewarding to finally get to watch it, keep up the great work!
Probably not until the actual playable characters are all accounted for, but do you have in mind to use the Creature Campaign unlockables such as Glen and Ismaire someday? Just out of curiosity really.
Thanks to your mom, I guess haha! Artur and Vanessa will be quite interesting, and thank you for the feedback. I'm happy you enjoyed the run too.
I'm quite interested in getting around to playing with the extra creature campaign characters since some of them seem quite strong!
Well now you know if garm Drank is an option then it is the only option +5 speed is nuts. I would love to see the Franz solo next to give you a break
Franz Solo could be a lot of fun.
Keep up the great content man! I love this series
Thank you! Glad you're enjoying. :D
Also, general gets prefect control over the weapon triangle because it gets swords and axes on top of lances.
Lol I love your voice made me think of Chris griffin playing fire emblem xD
Well I'm glad you're enjoying it! Never been compared to Chris Griffin, I guess there's a first time for everything! 😂
Hey! First time ever getting a shout out in a video!
Kind of a shame for old Gil my last comment didn't come earlier tjough.
Well anyway I still need to finish the video
A shame for Gilliam! But I think it made the video overall better cause it gave us an angle that required a little bit less luck :)
Gotta shoutout y'all when I do get a good tip like that :)
Here is another thing you might like to know if you didn't already.
Chapter 18 can actually screw you over if the last enemy dies from the fire panels. Even though it kills the enemy it won't count as complete so you'll have to redo the entire map of that nappens.That
Or at least that is what I have heard. I've never actually had this happen to me so I can't confirm if this is 100% true or not, but I thought I would warn you just in case.
@@chaossnowkitsune6377 thanks for the heads up! I would not like that to happen at all haha
Thankfully it is the only map it can happen on. As every other map that has something like that is one you can retreat from at any time
35:46
>Lyon's dead
>There are still 22 minutes of the video left
Hoo boy.
Gonna be quite interesting when we start getting into units with duplicate weapon types or classes. Right now all four use something different outside of Gilliam having swords and aces too once he promoted. lol I hope Marisa can beat Erika in the sword-using department.
That's quite true, seeing how well different users of the same weapons do will be very fun!
im sure people have already said it, but there’s a way to guarantee getting a rune sword. go into the tower, retreat, save, and soft reset
Yeah, a few people mentioned, but thanks for the info always helpful :)
You have quite the patience to do this
My next suggested Fran to get the beginning out of the way or Amilia AKA Ross and Gillian Combined
Thank you! Franz is one I'm quite interested in seeing in action.
1 thing i looooooove about general in this game is they can carry the big ass sword
Like daaaaaaaanm
It looks so freaking cool!
I think that, as gilliam was the earlier sacrifice, I would like for you to play with the later sacrifice: knoll
Damn, you got me there 😂
YES you can take more healing items into the demon king fight, it makes the runs more playable, but also it just makes sense
I feel bad for knoll man he dies every time. Maybe do a worse ewan solo?
Poor Knoll, I'm truly mistreating him. Ewan is one I'm intrigued to get to soon!
What a difference a better legendary weapon makes.
Still waiting to see how fast a myrm can slice through FE8.
Yeah, it can be as simple as changing a legendary weapon!
In this game, the devil axe gives an stupid amount of weapon exp so in the future it might coem in handy if you want to use Garm
That's true! Usually by the time I get to getting the devil axe I'm good on weapon EXP, but it's good to keep in mind :)
Your almost as insane as I am. And I'm currently working on beating awaking without spending a single gold piece on lunatic ( with full renown)
Almost is the key term here ahaha anything with Lunatic and awakening in the same breath scares me lmao
@@kratosmvn_ tbh its actually really easy.... until you to the chap with the madking and you realize the kiddy gloves are off lol havent been able to get pass the invasion on the boat with all the calavary yet ( namely because its really hard to have enough units able to not only tank the hits coming but also kill them ) all while having enough healing to deal with them since you cant turtle due to the AI charging at you in groups of 4 or more ever 1-3 turns
2:29 Yo, we gonna talk about that 1% crit though?
It was pretty impressive feat that went unsung!
Of course you can! Its goddamn armor knight/general!
Mans was built for this!
@@kratosmvn_ after seeing the video, yup I was correct. But you did do bit of fudge with his weapon skill levels originally. Thankfully re-run cleared that all up
I'd say it's fair game to grab 2 healing items, 1 for the first chapter and another for the last boss. Idk about everyone else, though.
Thanks for the feedback :)
Can't wait for the enivitable Franz and or the Colm and neimi one I suggest since the first erika run (reason being I don't think separate they can bith beat fe8 in a sólo run but together they certainly can)
Hopefully we'll find out soon enough if they can solo the game or need to be combined haha
Nice playthrough, Next time has to be Arthur, The HP'nt boi
Thank you! Artur and his stellar Hp lmao
Man 55% for HP is really low... You are going to have a good time with him :)
Can’t wait for Artur, Joshua, and best FE unit SETH runs. Yes, red hair is my hair color.
Staying on brand, I love it!
lol, all OP units
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 Joshua, debatable, but other two, yes. Mega good units.
Imagine a Knoll run, that would hurt.
Yeah, I can already feel the pain haha
Neimi next? We're looking forward for some bow gameplay!
Can't wait to drop some bow gameplay! It's gonna be very interesting.
Can’t wait for the sadist in you to do Knoll 🤪
I could wait hahaha
After doing the Franz run, what are your thoughts on doing Gilliam but as a GK? Considering that you used Garm anyway, do you consider Great Shield and Higher Caps was the play?
I get so invested on your runs hahaha Love them all!
Good question, I still think it does, but it isn't as big of a deal as I'd previously imagine maybe. A test run would be in order later down the line.
Thank you, glad you've been enjoying them.
I'm down for another elixir on fomortiis' map
Thank you for the feedback!
