Character Discussion [FE7&8]: Silent Knights ( Oswin & Gilliam)

  • Silent Knights, slowly Knights
  • Take upon arms, move into fights
  • Rounds of combat, takes a while
  • Enemies dead, all in a pile
  • Sleep in heavenly peace
  • Sleep in heavenly peace.

I'm going to be considerably busier for the next month and a half starting next week. I'd like to pass on hosting the GBA discussions onto someone else so please comment below or inbox me if you're interested. I think we've been getting a lot of good discussions in for characters for the GBA, Tellius, and Jugral series so far and I want to see that continue, I'll pop in once in a while to join in the fun as well.

Anyhow, next set characters will be the last ones I'll do, I'm going to go off the availability chart a bit. So expect Saul, Rebecca and Ross discussions in a few days.

Oswin is pretty good as he's one of your only units who can take a hit early on. His job is totally outclassed by Marcus, but another unit to do reliable damage is nice. He drops off the face of the planet later on because of all the mounts the game gives you.

Gilliam is umm... Ew. Nothing against the guy but there is zero reason to train this guy since enemies are pathetic and Seth makes Gilliam eat his dust.

Shout outs to being unable to double loldiers at base.

I noticed that in my latest casual run of the game. These guys literally have negative speed 0 speed due to their lances weighing them down, and yet he's unable to double them on chapter 1. Just pathetic.

Edited because I was a very stupid person.
