Current Events > Ferdinand vs Sylvain

(+) Yeah! (+)

I heard that its basically another Fredrick vs Sain (names even resemble them) but Sain was always better because he was faster and stronger. My Sylvain has less hp, strength and speed. Hes only got better def and res. Ferdinand is better in every other way and has 11 more hp so hes probably a better tank anyway

Did my sylvain get screwed or does he just suck

I took my Sylvain Paladin>Fortress>Great Knight and dude is a beast tank. Only magic really does something and even then it's like 1/3rd his health

In my first run I ended up turning Sylvain into my Dancer because his stats in general were just poor. With Ferdinand, even if he gets unlucky, because of his natural talent if you promote him into Wyvern Lord and equip the right abilities, he gets some seriously high Avoid bonuses.

In the final fight I sent him off on his own to sit on one of those HP regen circles and just let him distract a bunch of enemies by dodge-tanking and countering them while the rest of my team focused the boss.

So far in my second playthrough Sylvain is keeping up this time so I'm gonna make them both Wyvern Lords for symmetry.
