Nolan is indeed legit. Jill, less so. I have trouble raising her leveling.
However, they didn't technically have to give you the Black Knight. And the only reason I used him on the last map was to wall things and allow me to steal all the experience for my epic Dawn Brigade I could.
Nephenee is an alright Sentinel, but Aran is still better. Soren gets higher speed, but Micaiah has one of the highest Magic stats in the game. I dislike Mia specifically for her character, but all the Trueblades end up with essentially the same stats.
Shinon is a douchebag character. Boyd is okay, but I just like Nolan better. Haar always gets used unless I go out of my way to not use him.
They survived on pure skill. The Dawn Brigade only gets a bad rap due to a lack of maps. They have 11 in the first chapter, and then we don't see them again until Part 3, and that is for like three maps. The only characters that get screwed over more than them are Lucia, Geoffrey, Marcia, Tormod, Vika, and Muarim.

They did not survive on pure skill, the fact that they had to survive and not beat them speaks volumes. Ike's Mercenaries are leagues above the Dawn Brigade and they would have destroyed them in a plotless scenario.
Jill is just as good as Haar when they are both fully leveled. Jill just attacks twice more. Jill and Haar were always in my final game.
The fact that they gave you the Black Knight because he felt that he needed to protect her should speak volumes. He had to do what the Dawn Brigade couldn't do in a few maps.
Micaiah's higher magic stat is trumped by Soren's speed though. Attacking twice is better than a slightly higher attack. Mic was just too much of a glass cannon for me.
Shinon's douchieness does not take away from his tremendous skill and power. Shinon does work and so does Boyd, but him and Nolan are just as good to me.
I really didn't see them as having a lack of maps, they were just bad to me, everyone gets oneshotted, Zihark was a huge disappointment.
Eh, canonically the Greil Mercenaries are only more experienced. Given the same amount of time, the Dawn Brigade would prove just as skilled and powerful. That's why they were among the non-stoned.
K.
Canonically, that is only in his character. He is the second best swordsman on Tellius, believing himself to likely be the best until his fight with Ike ends. The fact he doesn't want to leave Micaiah with the Dawn Brigade speaks only for their inexperience and his own great skill. For some reason the BK cares about Micaiah, at that point it's because she is Daein's hope. Afterward, I don't know.
True, but I'm not big on stat advantages deciding all my characters. I mostly use only the characters I like best.
Also true, but I'd rather use Leonardo because he isn't a douche. And I'm glad you appreciate Nolan. Pretty much everyone I've spoken to likes at least one person in the DB.
Eh. To me it's only a lack of maps. If I had more I'd use them all. Right now though I pretty much stick with Sothe, Micaiah, Nolan, Edward, Leonardo, Aran, Tauroneo and Jill. But with more maps I'd use them all, even shitty Meg. Fiona is actually a pretty fast and decent Paladin, but with the lack of maps I can only level so many characters. When I use just those guys I can get them to second stages by the end of the first part.
Zihark really shouldn't have been. At the point you get him he's got about ten to twelve levels on all the enemies.

I think Shinon is better then Leonardo. Also the Black Knight wasn't at maxed stats when Ike versed him in the Tower Of Guidance. If the BK was at max stats. He would make Ike turkey for Thanksgiving. Also Meg isn't worth training. I would say Tauroneo is a Tank compared to Meg. I would only use Meg if I needed someone to weaken an enemy. I say that even with Micaiah's Promotion into a Light Priestess Soren is just more versatile because Micaiah can only use Light magic while Soren can use all of the Anima Magic. Also I find RexCalibur to be stronger than RexAura. As for Fiona, if you take the time to train her she can be really useful. And finally I think the Greil Mercanaries is better then The Dawn Brigade due to the fact that the Greil Mercanaries have a larger variety of units.
I was not created to troll someone who was not gonna be trolled anyway due to poor forsight on the part of my creator. I happen to know why I was created, unlike this thread, who is sad and confused and doesn't know what to do with its life.
