On any given interaction, no. But across an entire map? Being down 1/2 strength/magic points for every battle, 1/2 def/res, and especially speed can make a substantial difference. Think about it like this: Let's say your tank unit is 2 levels higher, and has a couple extra HP points, an extra strength point, two extra def points, and an extra speed point. If you send him out to bait a couple units, the post level unit can have anywhere from 4-6 more HP at the end of the fight, substantially more if the speed/strength stat impacts a double. 4-6 less HP at the bare minimum is significant though, and can be the difference between whether you can actually afford to bait out or not. Apply that to all your units across all interactions over an entire map and it adds up. I wouldn't say that you have to especially go out of your way to make sure you're not overleveled. The game provides a recommended level for each map; just tone down the sidequests/paralogues if you're over it (or use units that you don't usually bring into story chapters) and you should be fine. Doesn't seem any more of a hassle than any other level based combat system, at least imo. |
Perhaps if we were talking about Fates, but in 3 Houses terms like tank and baiting don't apply much in this game, atleast my main strategy has simply been to walk up and kill the enemy. A few less stats wont change that, it would take a complete overhaul of mechanics, namely removing the ranged meta.
You're telling me not to do paralogues. That would be me going out of my way lul. In Conquest, I could do paralogues and the maps would still pose sufficient challange, so why is it now my fault?

Although I think that you never ended up playing that Wii U game and just kept hating based on the game itself. I haven't forgotten about your stubbornness in discussions. |
Fixed! You can call me stubborn and my criticisms hate and other such nonsense that I could just as easily spin back to you, but implying my opinions come from anything but the game itself I wont allow. Also, the existence of older games doesn't make 3 Houses any less like Echoes so I'll be continuing to call it as such, you'll just have to deal with that, much like I deal with Fates being called a waifu sim.
