Who is your favorite unit so far? Anyone else surprised on how great this game is! I will be doing unit reviews, class tier lists, builds and more. So let me know what you want to see first!
My favorite unit is definitely thief tank. They are pretty much invulnerable aside from damage from archers. And it can easily be covered with characters with shield support skills, and you can make it activate only when archers attack.
@@Blood_Ronin FYI your analysis is great. I love your thought process. Id love a video where you play on expert or the ng+ difficulty and you find one of those random overworld enemies that you have to beat in one round to get 2 honor. Find one that Initially beats all your units and then take us thought the process of figuring out a squad to beat it. It's such an engaging rewarding process when you pull it off. I'll happily spend hours in my game doing just that.
@@Blood_Ronin Well, probably that and it looks like almost everyone is trying to cover this game lol. :) This game is fantastic though. I've been waiting for a new Ogre Battle type game for decades!
Favorite tip so far: siege weapons don't have a cool down. It's the unit whose wait period is active. This can be abused in a few ways, namely using jump on a siege weapon to get a first strike in. More importantly, by spamming abilities or items that reduce wait time to zero, you can fire off all five shots of a catapult rapid-fire. This can turn a few battles in Bastorias into an absolute joke. But it can also, with a double xp buff, let you put a bunch of weak units together, go grab a catapult and absolutely wreck face, gaining double digit levels in seconds.
I usually try to avoid these videos during my first playthrough as i really want to figure it out myself but the algorithm got me to click. Fantastic video with a lot of great advice. The three house's theme couldnt be more perfect. I spent over 150 hours in three houses. I fear im going the same route with this game.
Every once in a while I host a little tournament for all my units and let each unit face each other like 3x to see who's the strongest xD just a little game within the game I've started lol
I wanted to add some extra clarification to one of the points you made since I keep seeing people confused about this: 'Activates at the start of battle' is not actually the relevant line of text here, although it's the most obvious. LIMITED is. The Limited ruleset applies to every 'round' of combat, not just start of battle abilities So, as the video points out, having multiple 'activates at the start of combat' abilities with the limited tag... only 1 can trigger. But it applies to other skills on each round. So if you have Chloe set to use her 'keen' ability to give someone a 100% crit chance, and have another character trying to use Gambler's Coin.. both of them have the limited tag, so the only one that will activate is the one with the faster initiative
At first I thought it's bad coz now I can't use some abilities. But realized that the game prevents the scenario where a bunch of things happen/proc even before round 1 starts - like in other tactic games with trigger skills or passive skills just flying out everywhere, with no active skill yet happening 😂
Great video, I've never thought of using the Mantlet to get free assist as I'm hella conservative with special items. This will be helpful when I reach true zenoiran difficulty.
That's generally better, otherwise you have to wait for them to walk into you. I think video didn't mention the healer was pulled off the tower, but it was still active! It will not have the 50% bonus effectiveness but it will still contribute. Smoke will completely neutralize it unless you can send a unit to kill it
I was reading comments in another video about this fantastic game, and everyone is complaining it's too short! Meanwhile, I'm over here like, I spend hours on end just setting up my units perfectly. Lol, I'm closing in on 70 hours and I just barely made it to Albion.
You can for sure sink a ton of time into the game. I spent far more time in my true zen run compared to my first expert run. (Partly because I did expert out of order by mistake and ended up skipping some side things). Between making new builds, squads, and more, this game is such a blast.
@Blood_Ronin It really is a masterpiece. The combinations to refining your tactics are endless, and when you create a unit that has perfect synergy, it just feels so satisfying. I haven't even finished the game yet, and already, I'm really hoping they make a sequel or follow-up game.
Something to add to your tips don't mock battle at forts instead head over to coliseum and do auxiliary battles they are easy enough to beat to test and also build coliseum coins for end game gear. Another thing is idealistic hand mirrors are available for 30 honor from an NPC in Albion as well so they can be unlimited
Nice tips. I utilized the position change and attack priorities on my first few hours. I was wondering if I can make my team survive on that one attack that will wipe my squad. And it actually works. After that, I do it every fight haha. Its very good as I can change my tank on the fly since other tanks are weak with certain attacks.
One stratategy i use is always put loestt hp on my last attack order in priority. That way, if i have not an specific attack ocurred the generic attack will hit the character with a higher propobility of dying
For healers I prefer to use《Lowest 💚 HP》 and 《Lowest 💚 % HP 》over lets say 《Below xx% HP》because otherwise lets say at 76% HP, they won't heal units even if the battle is about to end. Meaning wasted heals for future battles and dangerous in next battles if they're not at full health . Also if you're using tanky units with more HP in the front, make sure to set healers to 《Lowest 💚 % HP 》instead of 《Lowest 💚 HP》, otherwise your healer will keep healing your back row mage with 20 max HP instead of your 21/50 HP frontal tank.
I dont think [lowest HP] is a good condition for heals. A full health damage dealer will still have less hp than a wounded tank. So the healer will wiff the heal on the squishy dps.
You should be changing your setup battle by battle. If you're not doing that you're either overlevelled for you enemy or are fine with taking a knackering for no good reason
FYI this comment changed my perspective when I was still grasping things before level 10. Once I absorbed this different mindset my fun factor shot through the roof.
@@TheRoleplayer40k I mean I guess. But real combat requires an insane level of flexibility. Improvisation is constant because either side can't know everything about the other and the stakes are high. Not even the US military with all the numbers and bells and whistles have been able to completely rout the Vietnamese for example. If you've read or lived through that (or any other war) , you know tactics were constantly shifting by necessity. Trying to brute force or coast your way to victory is not only not that fun but also unrealistic. In all human and non human struggles dynamism and adaptation almost always wins
Game is a joke as far as difficulty…I was all scared because it was my first tactical game but it’s so fucking easy I’m gonna try other tactics games now…FR 🤦♂️
Oh that provoke on watchtower is totally dope, coz im hindsight I read that skill will not work on people stationed on posts/garrisons, etc assumed including watchtowers but apparently it does not 😂 it is a big help, totally changing my deep dive assault on towers
First, congrats for clearing the game on expert 🤘 I'm having some issues because so many options that I should try.. get me bored... And the question is, ¿any tip for promotions? Other games grant you extra stats if you hold your units as basic, but I dont know if in Unicorn you can promote them as soon as you can
Thank you! Promote as soon as you can. It will unlock more AP, PP, and extra skills you can learn. Thief with the aoe blind skill is very powerful imo. And of course to promote Alain asap. Other than that, promote as you see fit.
Game is pretty easy even on expert mode... that is until you find that one stage where game wants you to use a very specific strat that you can't find it yourself
I loved that as soons as everyone knew they can customize their army the collectively changed everyones color pallette to red whats even better this that this game lets you recruit grunt units
Great info all around! I can't believe I didn't think about mantlet, although I tended to use the "0 stamina" wall technique. If enough enemies are moving towards you, you can actually "move" your 0 stamina around by constantly swapping up.
@@Blood_Ronin Time will tell my friend....if Unicorn Overlord release a DLC this year then it's a WRAP. Also thanks for the review. I give this game a 9/10 but with a DLC it can get to 10/10. Orge battle 64 didnt really explain things well either and I wish they would have gotten it right this time around. Buts been 24 years since that game so I am just glad we got something and and I stop playing N64.
do the mirrors get restocked? I noticed in another video the black market guy only has like 3 or 4 of them. If I want to customize my whole army, does he restock these? Or does he have more of them when he sets up shop in other regions?
@@jhon1406 it does for sure. Healers/mages/archers all can shoot for free and help do free support. Also, anyone who is attacked at a station don't use their attack resorce as well along with som other minor buffs depending on the station.
everything is custoisable at any point in time. you can change your weapons right before fight too. the character can share a good sword or shield if there's a case for that. But I tend to challenge myself by not changing anything right before fight, and try to make most teams all rounded
Just a tip. When you use a "prioritize" condition for a skill in both conditions 1 & 2 it will always use condition 2 because condition 2 will override condition 1.
@@Blood_Ronin Yeah the game isn't very good at explaining how the conditions work. How it works is condition 1 is processed THEN condition 2. So if you want to prioritize a skill for different classes in a particular order you have to add the skill to a new row in the tactics and use the row order to handle priority.
Also keep in mind if u set e.x. prioritize armored on innocent ray on first priority, u will never get the results of your other tactics below that priority, except she has only 1 ap left. Prioritize will try to make your condition happen (e.x. aim at armored enemy) but will cast the spell if there is no armored enemy anyway. So it will never check the following tactics since it always will fulfill that tactic. I see those prioritize errors in a lot of your setup. Same goes for your active steal setup. Toxic Throw will only trigger if Travis has only 1 AP left and Passive Steal will never happen.
Is there a significant change if the mirror is used to low level vs high level unit? Like does using it on a low level unit much better coz the unit will "grow" much closer to that stat growth or something...
@@Blood_Roninthanks, that's good to know, no need to be afraid on overlevelling then. Sometimes, the old Fire Emblem made us traumatised from doing some things 😂
Is there newgame plus bc if not why get everything on one save just to unlock a harder save to get it all again and grind please someone tell me theirs newgame plus
I honestly wish they would just increase the base speed up. Then get rid of super fast. Once I started it, I feel like I can't go back to normal speed.
I go back when experimenting with thigs. During battle you can press X (switch version) and it shows you the details of the skill being used in real time. Its useful to see when things are being done so you can modify your party.@Blood_Ronin
How impactful is the growth type and the ascension? I mean, as the level is lower those stats will end up being bigger? Due to being ascended Units get bigger numbers as they level up and in the growth type the way stats are distributed
I would say one of the most important uses is changing units to go getter cause while 2 or 3 atk and HP don't make a huge different 3 or 4 initiative can change around a teams whole turn order initiative is probably the most important stat in the game
Nah, I am playing on an Oled. I am honestly not sure. It may be from overeating maybe when I went to record. I downloaded it from the nintendo store, so not sure if that makes a difference in physical copy or digital. Edit, when I don't have it docked it doesn't have the issue. So I'm not entirely sure :(
@Blood_Ronin I get menu slowdown when I change formation on the unit squadron screen. I'm on OLED playing a digital copy too. It started happening around the time I expanded my first 5-man unit.
@@Haseo121 I showcase in the video on true Zenorian. It won't work against true garrisons like home bases ect. Watch towers, catapults, and ballistas it does work on.
If I could buy items every 24 hours, the game would be beatable it’s garbage I’m the only person who is fighting back against the propaganda of this ad campaign
iPhone is very difficult to get items in this stupid game. You take me 45 minutes to respond items but in the game after that it wouldn’t respond items anymore garbage.
There is 2 things considered post game. A final mission that without spoilers will allow you to recruit certain characters from the story that you couldn't normally have, including enemies. The other is if you consider the unlockable mode or pvp in the colosseum as end game. It took me about 40ish hours to clear on expert. This is with doing majority of the content. Sadly, I did things out of order and it caused a lot of my squad to over level aspects of the game. So a lot of side quests were skipped due to that reason. I imagine with more time taken into doing side missions and more you can easily get 50 hours+
As a high end estimate I beat it just under 80 hours completing everything 100% and without going out of order. I also spent probably 15 to 20 hours over optimizing squads though
People may not know this, but in terms of getting equipment for teams for these fights you can open the menu with the - button and see every town that has not been rescued/rescued, but if you use the d pad with the yellow buttons while in there you can scroll between accessible towns, forts, rapport scenarios, and other locations like black market dealers. If you then press the x button on say the fort or towns page you can see exactly which mercenaries or pieces of equipment you can buy from a particular place. Also, rapport gives bonuses but doesn't tell you what they are directly. You can actually see what they are by looking at the individual character page (even during battle and using the r button to scroll to the third page I believe to get that information. Aubin, for example gets more magic defense, accuracy, and guard rate from Alain I believe.
I can’t even beat easy mode. I’m running out of items I have problems trying to free people from the madness fight the final boss. It’s a hard game complete scam. Sorry that’s my opinion.
The free assist is handy, provided those units are not attacked. You'd also need to carry a lot of mantles if you are dropping them often. Switching unit positions during a match is handy. This would be the same with switching up your skill conditions to target specific enemies, such as pesky ranged enemies in the back row. For changing the unit leader, that does not affect the unit speed on the map. Mobility speed is determined by the average speed of all members in the unit. If you want to speed up the unit, you need to swap slower members for faster ones or use a speed boosting skill etc. Blind is an interesting skill. I need to play with that one more. I'm currently using a desert staff with my Shaman to inflict blind on the whole enemy unit at start of battle. It seems like some skills will still hit though but I forget which ones right now.
The speed one you mentioned isn't necessarily true. Switch from a standard infantry to horse, you'll see a difference in speed regardless of who is in your party.
@@Blood_RoninIf you don't swap out members and just pick a Cavalry member as unit leader versus an infantry member, I believe the movement speed should still be the same. The game tips page within the game even mentions that the unit speed is based on the combined members mobility rating.
@@TwinworldGameReviewsI think the way it works is that it uses the leader's mobility as a base, and the other characters in the unit add a small modifier.
Not really, your units will massively underperform their potential if you don't make use of tactics (but I guess you can grind to overlevel them). It's really the core of the game though.
Oh, you can’t use skills during battle mode unless you’re further away, so how am I supposed to cast the stupid spell when I’m being attacked by my stupid allies Einstein
I didn't think it was a big spoiler since you have to go out of your way to skip 99% of the game to get it I apologize. I'll make sure to keep anything spoiler like that out of future videos.
Who is your favorite unit so far? Anyone else surprised on how great this game is! I will be doing unit reviews, class tier lists, builds and more. So let me know what you want to see first!

Favorite tip so far: siege weapons don't have a cool down. It's the unit whose wait period is active. This can be abused in a few ways, namely using jump on a siege weapon to get a first strike in. More importantly, by spamming abilities or items that reduce wait time to zero, you can fire off all five shots of a catapult rapid-fire. This can turn a few battles in Bastorias into an absolute joke.

@@lokloke2249 No since the game recalculate the stats "as if" the new growth rate was always there
I would say one of the most important uses is changing units to go getter cause while 2 or 3 atk and HP don't make a huge different 3 or 4 initiative can change around a teams whole turn order initiative is probably the most important stat in the game
What's with the slight pause after selecting a menu? I don't have this weird pause on the Switch. Are you perhaps playing on an emulator?
Nah, I am playing on an Oled. I am honestly not sure. It may be from overeating maybe when I went to record. I downloaded it from the nintendo store, so not sure if that makes a difference in physical copy or digital. Edit, when I don't have it docked it doesn't have the issue. So I'm not entirely sure :(
@Blood_Ronin I get menu slowdown when I change formation on the unit squadron screen. I'm on OLED playing a digital copy too. It started happening around the time I expanded my first 5-man unit.
@@sammon1415 Thank you for this comment. I thought maybe my Switch was defective at first.
Oh ok, maybe it's just the memory card then. I play on physical and I don't get this slow down.@@Blood_Ronin
emulator actually runs it better than the real thing lmao
Bruh that Mirror is so eye opening, imma go hoard all of them now😂
It is very useful just to see character growths in general. Like a druid with extra accuracy is a waste since they have true hit anyhow.
You can get these in Albion as well for 30 valor. So if you're able to make it up there early it can really help
Does provoke really work on towers?
Not just towers but ballistas as well.
@@Blood_Ronin in the valor description it says it's innefective against garrisoned units. When I tried in expert the enemy units didn't move.
@@Haseo121 I showcase in the video on true Zenorian. It won't work against true garrisons like home bases ect. Watch towers, catapults, and ballistas it does work on.
@@Blood_Ronin I see. Thanks for the clarification!
You can also use Smoke Bomb 1 or Smoke Bomb 2. It doesn't pull them out of the tower but it negates any unit's assist attacks in the area of effect.
The sphere of Odin sucks too. Too much jumping I hate platforms. I haven’t tried 13 sentinels and I don’t plan to.
If I could buy items every 24 hours, the game would be beatable it’s garbage I’m the only person who is fighting back against the propaganda of this ad campaign
iPhone is very difficult to get items in this stupid game. You take me 45 minutes to respond items but in the game after that it wouldn’t respond items anymore garbage.
How many hours did it take you to complete your first run? And is there post game of any kind or just the new difficulty
There is 2 things considered post game. A final mission that without spoilers will allow you to recruit certain characters from the story that you couldn't normally have, including enemies.
The other is if you consider the unlockable mode or pvp in the colosseum as end game.
It took me about 40ish hours to clear on expert. This is with doing majority of the content. Sadly, I did things out of order and it caused a lot of my squad to over level aspects of the game. So a lot of side quests were skipped due to that reason.
I imagine with more time taken into doing side missions and more you can easily get 50 hours+
As a high end estimate I beat it just under 80 hours completing everything 100% and without going out of order. I also spent probably 15 to 20 hours over optimizing squads though
People may not know this, but in terms of getting equipment for teams for these fights you can open the menu with the - button and see every town that has not been rescued/rescued, but if you use the d pad with the yellow buttons while in there you can scroll between accessible towns, forts, rapport scenarios, and other locations like black market dealers. If you then press the x button on say the fort or towns page you can see exactly which mercenaries or pieces of equipment you can buy from a particular place.
Also, rapport gives bonuses but doesn't tell you what they are directly. You can actually see what they are by looking at the individual character page (even during battle and using the r button to scroll to the third page I believe to get that information. Aubin, for example gets more magic defense, accuracy, and guard rate from Alain I believe.
Ha ha ha they’re limited in story mode to if I had some more freaking items. Maybe I could’ve beaten the damn game.
I can’t even beat easy mode. I’m running out of items I have problems trying to free people from the madness fight the final boss. It’s a hard game complete scam. Sorry that’s my opinion.
Even on True Zen, I thought it was easy. It sounds like you don't quite understand the mechanics well overall.
The free assist is handy, provided those units are not attacked. You'd also need to carry a lot of mantles if you are dropping them often.
Switching unit positions during a match is handy. This would be the same with switching up your skill conditions to target specific enemies, such as pesky ranged enemies in the back row.
For changing the unit leader, that does not affect the unit speed on the map. Mobility speed is determined by the average speed of all members in the unit. If you want to speed up the unit, you need to swap slower members for faster ones or use a speed boosting skill etc.
Blind is an interesting skill. I need to play with that one more. I'm currently using a desert staff with my Shaman to inflict blind on the whole enemy unit at start of battle. It seems like some skills will still hit though but I forget which ones right now.
The speed one you mentioned isn't necessarily true. Switch from a standard infantry to horse, you'll see a difference in speed regardless of who is in your party.
@@Blood_RoninIf you don't swap out members and just pick a Cavalry member as unit leader versus an infantry member, I believe the movement speed should still be the same. The game tips page within the game even mentions that the unit speed is based on the combined members mobility rating.
@@TwinworldGameReviewsno
I have seen it ingame, having a Travis as a leader walks faster than my Alain in the same team if Alain was the leader.
@@TwinworldGameReviewsI think the way it works is that it uses the leader's mobility as a base, and the other characters in the unit add a small modifier.
Can I play through this on day normal or tactician and just ignore the tactics mechanics? I do t like the idea of programming ai at all
Im not sure about normal, I only played on expert and above so far. But from what people said, it can be pretty easy overall.
Programming ai is video games at its core.. go watch movies then
Not really, your units will massively underperform their potential if you don't make use of tactics (but I guess you can grind to overlevel them). It's really the core of the game though.
This is a top tier video.
actual pro tips
Oh, you can’t use skills during battle mode unless you’re further away, so how am I supposed to cast the stupid spell when I’m being attacked by my stupid allies Einstein
Good video but you definitely disappointed me with your spoiler about Scarlet’s bad ending :/
Didn’t know that was possible so thanks for that
I didn't think it was a big spoiler since you have to go out of your way to skip 99% of the game to get it
I apologize. I'll make sure to keep anything spoiler like that out of future videos.
@@Blood_RoninI don't think telling someone of the existence of another ending is a spoiler it's not like you said what the ending was
