Can I beat Fire Emblem Awakening With Only Swords?
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 09. 2024
- Join me in this "tactical" rpg where I still make the game ridiculously easy with Robin but I can only use swords. It makes the game much harder obviously! It is extremely fun to be 1 range locked for the entire game most certainly.
Which is why i carry my Levin sword
- Robin
@@jfp4life 1-2 range magical weapons my beloved!

Aye word to the wise be careful to make sure that your music is not louder than your voice. Good job all around
@@angelsonic999 Thanks for the comment! I appreciate the criticism and watching it again, yeah the music should’ve been quieter. It could’ve been generally lower but the volume is a bit inconsistent and I find my voice volume is also a bit inconsistent with volume which doesn’t help. I’ll do my best to fix that in the future!
9:20 Lucina doesn’t say that Chrom will be killed by that assasin, but that he will be injured, which would’ve caused Emmeryn to die early on without his aid. Lucina saving Chrom from the assassin attack also doubled as her attempt to prevent Emmeryns death from happening in the future, but alas it happens regardless because that’s just how trying to change the past works.
Yeah, someone else said this already but I think that makes sense. Lucina says "I'm about to save your life" to Chrom which still makes no sense to me but whatever. I can't actually find where Lucina says that it would only cause an injury but eh it doesn't really matter that much.
20:18 Help, that blur of Kellam made me laugh so hard
Who?
I am honestly surprised so many people find this funny but I'm just happy people can enjoy my sense of humor lmao. Thanks!
Your sense of humor was cracking me up the whole video
Thanks! Mfw when I am passive aggressive about topics I love.
Lovely that the FE Awakening fandom is still alive ❤😂
@@Jil1807 True! Definitely not my favorite Fire Emblem game but I can’t deny how important it was for the series!
What you did with "Don't Speak Her Name" was genuinely brilliant. A great video and a fun challenge with unexpected feels.
Thanks! I like mixing up some longer videos with some sections where I don't speak especially for parts of games I already think are excellently crafted. Fire Emblem Awakening definitely hits on the emotional side of storytelling which I think is pretty neat.
At 9:20, she says in the dialogue afterwords that attack would wound him badly which stops him from saving Emm.
Oh that actually makes much more sense. Shows how much I’ve retained of this games story lol.
Awakening was my first FE and it's nice to see people still finding fun ways to play it over ten years later :)
@@JB-bc2ry It was mine too! It started my wacky journey with this series over 2 years ago and I couldn’t be more happy I randomly stumbled upon playing it. I love the strategy gameplay of many of the games a ton!
A run with only magic user would be so fun and hard 😂
@@LucasMachadoS So true until someone gets nosferatu and then the game is just over lmao.
It really is hilarious that they tried to nerf nosferatu and its still op @@pinkmellyy
@@kodyrowe-manns6360 Fr. Fates Nosferatu is absolutely immaculate mostly in conquest. I don’t think I could beat lunatic without it lmao.
magic is everything
So happy to be your 200th sub this video is peak asf ❤❤
@@thxmill Nice! Thanks for the comment I’m glad other people enjoy it!
This was a great video man keep it up
@@DinoDoofy Thanks! I intend on making more FE content in the future and I hope you enjoy!
Mmm nostalgia, just hearing voice of Chrom from the start of the video melt my heart.
Still think it's the best game in frenchies.
@@Ilia_Salnicov Understandable. They really put their all in using mechanics from previous games in a really neat way. It’s definitely not my favorite but I can’t deny it doesn’t hold a special place in my heart as my first FE game!
0:22 Um ackshually, any of the child units could reclass into a sword user depending on who their parents are
But this is a really cool challenge run, thanks for making this 😄
@@CheesyLizzy Thanks for the comment! Yeah I knew they could use swords depending on their father but I just didn’t think it mattered that much and would look way simpler. Child units kinda suck anyways if your intention is just to beat the game lol.
And yeah I had a ton of fun making this video! I’m looking forward to making more fire emblem content when I have the time!
"Why do people always play the female avatars" Because Female Robin is the prettiest girl in the franchise and otherwise the Smash roster would be a sausagefest(even if i also like men too, variety is nice). Also great video, loved that an Awakening video popped up on my feed. Lunatic earlygame is very funny. I wonder what the run would've looked like on Lunatic. Probably hell.
Thanks for the comment! Yeah I was definitely not happy that I couldn’t do lunatic but oh well. And honestly I know why everybody picks the female avatars lol. I just like playing as dudes cause I’m a dude so. Awakening definitely isn’t one of my favorite FE games but it was imperative in getting me to play this amazing series so I’m happy it exists for that!
I meant to get this video out like 2 weeks ago but I procrastinated again oops. Fire Emblem is definitely one of my favorite series and I am currently still in the mood to play Fire Emblem a lot rn. Oh also my mic no longer sucks horrendously. I wanna throw up listening to my Yakuza 0 video the mic is so bad lmao. Also two sound effects appear later than I intended them to be but I'm not waiting another 5 hours to export just for something that probably only I care about. Hope you guys enjoy and I intend on making more Fire Emblem content hopefully.
hope this is just the beginning of a long series, good work!
@@NikeSword97 Thanks for the comment! I do think I’ll continue to make videos like this for other games as it is a ton of fun. But I am interested in making smaller videos for Fire Emblem as challenge videos can take quite a while lol.
nice video! i think starting the challenge after chapter 1/the beginning chapters would've been more interesting than dropping to hard though, since hard becomes a complete cakewalk
@@shabrangong That’s fair. I really do wish there was a difficulty between hard and lunatic cause I just don’t think I’d find lunatic and especially lunatic+ very fun. Some chapters in hard without grinding are actually somewhat challenging but more so that you have to dodge some low hit chances. I vastly prefer other Fire Emblem difficulties as they are much closer and much better balanced in my opinion.
9:28 chrom lived the attack, apparently chrom just gets a long term injury.
Also not the only time either??
Ch4 when Lucina takes Lon’qu’s role it could be because Chrom A: loses or B: gets wounded
Then in ch6 we have this assasination attempt that wounds him
Then in ch13 there is another attempt that wounds chrom again
But apparently he still kicked ass as we see in the opening sequence where he is actually killed
@@sohn7767 Yeah I don’t really get it. Kinda contradictory but oh well lol.
I had not realized that the fixed Levin Sword drops were so rare
@@RagnellAvalon Yeah if i knew from the start there were only 2 I wouldn’t have bothered using Tharja lmao. Robin makes good use of it from his magic stat though.
Lol ur pretty funny. Subscribed!
@@alcadias7439 Thanks for the comment! I appreciate it!
>“funny support time!”
>shows libra and tharja supports
that aside. this video made me laugh so hard
@@negarhythm Lmao yeah I don’t know what i was thinking when I wrote that in the script and I made comments on it cause I was second guessing myself lol. Thanks for the comment!
9:23 This confused me for a while too. Later she clarifies that that guy never actually killed Chrom, but he did leave him with a permanent injury
Yeah many people have said this too. I still don't get why Lucina specifically says "I'm about to save your life" but whatever.
I am now 30 mins in the video and just realized you only had 113 subscribers. I was imagining at least 10k or more. Great work man, I´m looking forward to future videos.
I´m also pretty adictied to awakening (again) and thinking of fun challenges to make hard mode a bit more challenging. My first and only lunatic playthrough was fun but also way to time consuming and stressfull. And I will stay away from lunatic # as long as I can :D
PS: Btw great music choices. Dont speak her name is obviously great, but conquest somehow hits different (with nostalgia). This, Dwellings of the ancient gods and Road taken (calm) are probably my favorits of the series. And also some of my favorit soundtracks of all time.
PPS: Amomg us jokes will never be not funny xD
Thanks for the comment! The subscriber count I had before this was actually around 30 which is just insane to me. I'm definitely up to make some more Fire Emblem content as it is definitely my favorite series of all time! It even includes my favorite game of all time as I've played some of these games to death despite me only starting this series 2 years ago.
Some of these games due tend to struggle with making a hard mode that's not so easy and a extra hard mode that's not so terribly designed, like Awakening. But still ridiculous challenge can come with it's own masochistic kind of pleasure.
I really love Fire Emblem music as well to the point I may have made it too loud in this video lol but I'll fix it in the future.
Among us jokes will live on!!!1!
@@pinkmellyy Yeah, I really want to play an iron man run in fire emblem, since I feel like that’s now fire emblem was intended to play. But I struggle to find a game+difficulty that isn’t unfair but challenging at the same time. I now started an awakening run on hard mode without grinding, without pair up and randomising the team I take for every chapter. Let’s see if this will be a challenge or still rather simple.
I haven’t played Engage or Echoes yet and never finished fates. Are the difficulties better in those games? I like maddening in 3 houses, but without the Devine pulse it feels way too unfair.
Btw what’s your favorit fe game?
@@joshi5944 Yeah that’s totally valid. I feel like a lot of FE games struggle with making harder modes feel fair. Out of the games I’ve played Fates Conquest and Engage (specifically on Maddening) are amazing challenges that test you without doing stupid things like ambush spawns. And they’re both pretty reasonable to iron man (you just have to build a plan for the endgame of conquest from the start). Echoes doesn’t have that good difficulty imo but there’s no infuriating hard mode so there’s that at least. Fates Birthright is easy even on lunatic and Revelation meets BR and Conquest in between but is somewhat unbalanced although I have fun because of that. My favorite games so far are Fates Conquest and Engage because I love difficulty done right in this series lol. I’ve heard good things about the DS games difficulty wise too!
@@pinkmellyy Thanks for the recommendations. Haven’t checked out Engage yet, because I heard a lot of critic, but mainly about the story/characters. But I can look past that when the gameplay is good. So I think I finally have to play it.
You should try to beat fire emblem awakening with only dancers
@@Dear._.Catou05 3 strength Olivia gaming!
3:50 I WAS THAT FIRST PLAYER
NOT ONLY THAT AWAKENING WAS MY FIRST FIRE EMBLEM
SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS MY PAIN
No way lmao! That’s hilarious! The game would’ve had to impress me a lot to keep playing after that I salute you. 🫡
@@pinkmellyy i did not keep playing awakening for much longer, i much prefer the older games even though i got into the series later. its just that oldhead in me.
seriously though i must have a luck base of 1 or smth because in my own hack i just ate 2 1% crits in one map. its fucking crazy dude
@@dmas7749 Yeah that’s fair. Reminds me of the time like a month ago when I tried to play FE6 and said screw it and put roy out at like a 10% chance of getting hit and he immediately died to it lmao.
11:35 only chrom has morals
@@sohn7767 True.
Banger
@@MxStinky Thanks!
you should do fe7 using only lords. I've done it and it's very possible and fun
@@Obsidian-fn7wj Great idea! I’ve actually never beaten any games before Awakening and I’ve thought of if doing a challenge run for a game I’ve never played would be really funny. I might just try that out!
So fun! I gonna do an only magic ( and maybe heal staves) in fire emblem path of radiance
@@pelleas2191 Yeah! Especially if it’s units you haven’t used before, runs like this are a ton of fun! And you don’t have to be as strict with the rules as I am you could definitely wait a few chapters to feed the units easy xp especially since mages tend to lack good defenses.
@@pinkmellyy yes, I gonna try different types of challenge.
First : - only magic.
So heal, and magic weapon allowed. ( I gonna use titania after defeating petrine and mist with sonic sword cause she is the only that can use sword by leveling with magic)
+ leveling Ike for having nasir who does magic damage
- if too easy, only tomes and staves
- and after, only tomes
Magic is so bad in tellius game, I really want to try
@@pelleas2191 Sounds fun! I partially picked swords for this challenge because in modern FE swords are typically considered the worst weapon type and I wanted to see how it would go for an easier FE game. I hope you have fun with that challenge!
did you hav some kind of stroke at 6:05 ?
@@LightKing1237 Maybe it was a bad idea to record almost all of it in one take lmao.
nice video but i would like to know what Emulator u used for this to emulate it on pc?
@@imabird3820 I use citra. Unfortunately it got taken down so you may not be able to install it now at least by the people who made it. You may be able to find some places that rehost it if you look hard enough and if not I’m sure there’s some other 3DS emulator out or in the works rn.
@@pinkmellyy thank you for answering
@@imabird3820 Yeah no problem! I hope you can find something that helps!
Did you try unequipping the unit and then letting the enemy fail to hit them multiple times in a row? That seems like a better idea than event exp.
@@NarrowSpark96 Unfortunately there is no dodge xp in Awakening. I knew of it in the gba games but they must have removed because of how cheesy it was lol. I’m a big fan of degenerate strategies so I would’ve loved to if I could.
No exp for not damaging enemy.
I probably should have made it clearer this was a joke. If it actually existed in the first place, doing it would probably require a significant rng abuse and be even more tedious than event exp.
@@NarrowSpark96 True but it would’ve been extremely funny if it was possible. Event xp has too much rng for it to actually be a funny tactic while theoretical dodge xp you would just have to get enough avoid against a low hit hand axe or something.
This isn’t fire emblem this is smash bros
Fr
I believe Micaya and Ephrain are the only lords who never use swords in their games? Hector gets swords after promotion. Am I forgetting anyone?
Yeah sounds about right. I hope they start trying new things again with that because I think it's really cool when the main lord doesn't use swords.
Just curious, what are you playing this on?
Citra (the emulator). It got taken down a bit ago but there’s probably some replacement in the works or maybe out idk. I also use the HD texture pack mod. If you can, you can get the rom off of your 3DS if it’s hacked I believe or find some website that has it.
20:15 - 20:17
, you are strong

@@pinkmellyy jjk reference, specifically end of Sukuna's fight with Jogo
@@BlazingBoar Ah I see. Makes sense since it doesn’t really seem like the anime I’m interested in lol.
can you beat awakening before the rubber bands crush my 3DS
@@SweaterPuppys So true.
46:38 Just try harder. If we don't care about paralogues nor deaths then Lunatic should be possible. And if we're to use the renown items, kevin sword and merc robin for armshift could be done sooner.
Did you get that lvl 1 merc skill on him? Or did you not want more 1-2 range sword uses?
Like, I'm gonna try the prologue with this whenever I have charged my 3DS. You should not trigger me.
@@ghable23 Tbh it’s probably possible I just don’t want to. The reason I did this run was to have some fun making this game a tad bit harder and making me have to reset for hours on early chapters isn’t something I think would be fun. Another thing is I wasn’t worried about how hard the game is after the point you even get the levin sword. After that Robin is likely to already have snowballed and is able to beat the rest of the game no matter what you do it’s more so the early chapters when your options are limited. Armthrift goes along with the idea that I don’t want to reset just because I have to. While it is possible to get 100% activation on it once again that’d be very late game and that’s not where I think the problems are.
@@pinkmellyy I get it. I don't get it that you don't put effort into the hard part that's the early game as you said. That's how most challenges work on this game. You reset a lot early on and then breeze through. The only reason I have to play it is for the early game so resetting is expected.
Anyway, for a challenge here that's not entirely like that you may need to do no second seals or something, which forces Robin into a support unit more than combat later in the game.
@@ghable23 I suppose that’s fair. I felt like I put enough effort in a few hours attempting if it was possible and I just didn’t feel like it was without getting supremely lucky with a like 90% hit dodge (especially with how true hit works) and I just wanted to have fun playing the game. Honestly not reclassing Robin sounds interesting but it’s more like you’re bringing him down to everyone else’s level rather than just making everyone else good which I don’t really like that much. It may even be worse as you might have to just put all of the stat boosters into Robin anyways just to remain competitive. I just wanted a fun revisit to this game and I just don’t really like the whole “extreme difficulty at the start and then everything else is baby easy” mode that some games do.
@@pinkmellyy
I finally tried it. It took 2-3h to beat the first two maps. Robin barely got any experience so I'll probably continue until then. Chrom got speed level ups. You had to bait in and out the mage on the second group of enemies with Robin+Lissa on the right side to avoid fighting him. I couldn't get the boss kill with Robin because I got my first dual strike there. The boss has crit.
@@ghable23 Nice. I still wonder how much harder the rest of the maps are gonna be before you’re able to access battle preps. I think some of them are still harder than Chapter 1. I hope you’re able to do it!
More fire emblem three houses magic only
@@manicanime7070 Potentially!
Wha.....why skill?? Why.....dropping magic better for sword only wouldnt it?
@@corvosweet-moon8629 Honestly, yeah. I have no idea what my thought process was when doing it but my guess is that I knew swords were already extremely accurate so more skill wasn’t necessary. Either way each bane is only a 10% growth drop with a 5% drop in something else. It doesn’t really matter either way looking at them up close because growths are so high in Awakening. I did end up using the levin sword at the end with Robin but I think even if I dropped magic it still would’ve done some work.
@@pinkmellyy range is useful when the mobs happen. But I guess I just like my critical hits too much to imagine dropping it even if only a little
@@corvosweet-moon8629 That’s fair. I haven’t really messed with crit builds in any Fire Emblem games just because I like consistency tbh. But I imagine they can be pretty fun.
can you beat revelation (reading the story) without wanting to die
I actually don’t hate revelations story surprisingly enough. Although it could be I just love Fates’ gameplay so much even if the story is meh I don’t really care lmao.
The Apotheosis DLC is quite fun when DLC skills are banned I suppose.
How ironic that the DLC is better without using the DLC. It’s funny cause Awakening is the one game with modern DLC that I haven’t bothered with.
Yeah. I thought I was going crazy with how many people praise the children units. Lucina in particular. But they are so terrible and you get them during the Valm arc where the same turn reinforcements are the most annoying in the series. So you can't even level them up comfortably.
@@Pm3m_Dia I think it mostly comes down to how you play the game. People that got into the series with Awakening probably just grinded out whoever they wanted on normal and/or casual mode where you are absolutely not punished at all for doing. But if you’re not doing a bunch of paralogues or skirmishes most of them just aren’t worth it unless the paralogue is specifically easy or if they have some unique or good attribute like Morgan getting 50% more xp like Robin.
@@pinkmellyy I like to get Donnel's personal skill on Nah, cuz then it's a manakete with Donnel's growth, which can get Armsthrift if you grind for a bit.
@@fen6300 Oh yeah. That’s something I totally forgot about. Children definitely have way more availability for skills and classes which is pretty neat. For normal playthroughs of this game I still don’t think they’re worth it especially for the harder paralogues but you can easily still make anyone good in Awakening with enough time. The game gives you a lot of tools and you can really go ham with them!
I would say Robin’s kids are worth using.
now do a glass weapon only run, you are allowed only glass weapons as well as dying blaze🤣🤣🤣
