Tier 3 generics

Tutorial

From this point onward, you'll be facing generic tier 3 foes that are much more dangerous.

In addition to having higher offensive stats, they also have additional skills much like boss or Exalted units.

However, due to the increased frequency of these foes, their skills can also be viewed within the unit window using your cursor.

Notably, generic foes on normal and hard modes will always be golden if they have any skills.

Dialogue

  1. There she is! Hey, lady!

  2. Micaiah

    Who? Oh, Nico!

  3. This is great. I was hoping I'd find you.

  4. Lady

    Nico, mind your manners. The Silver-Haired Maiden is the savior of Daein. She's not just some "lady."

  5. Micaiah

    Oh, it's all right. I'm still the same simple girl from Daein you met before. Nothing's changed.

    So, are things well with you?

  6. Lady

    Well, the fighting's got everyone worried, coming so soon after the last war and all... But we're doing all we can for Daein!

    It doesn't matter who or what we're up against. Believe me when I tell you we'll never give up.

  7. That's right! We won't give up. Ever!

    I know we're gonna win, too. 'Cause we've got you on our side.

    That's what everybody says. The Dawn Brigade will save us.

  8. Micaiah

    Is that what they say?

    I see... Listen to me, Nico. You can believe in us. I promise we'll keep you safe.

  9. I knew it!

  10. Lady

    Come along, Nico. We should be going. The maiden's got better things to do than stand here chatting with us all day.

  11. Bye, lady! See you later!

  12. Micaiah

    Yes...good-bye, Nico.

  13. Sothe

    ...

  14. Micaiah

    I...I want to save them all. The world is a better place with people like them in it.

  15. Sothe

    I know how you feel, Micaiah. That's why we started all this. We've always been fighting for them.

    But this war we're in... It's not just. We're fighting on the wrong side.

  16. Micaiah

    I know. I don't want to see anyone die. It's ironic...I'm killing with no malice, because I don't want anyone to be killed.

    I... What am I supposed to do?

    Am I supposed to stand back and let all of Daein perish? Is that the "just" thing to do?

  17. Sothe

    ...

  18. Micaiah

    If that's what it takes to be just, then I want nothing to do with justice.

    I'd rather be hated and feared like Mad King Ashnard. I'd rather the dark god take my soul.

    I'm going to save my people, Sothe. If the rest of the world paints me as a beast to be reviled and hated, so be it.
