Well-timed necro, I just started a new game last night!

I always let the levels decide who I'll keep and who I'll ditch. So far, Boyd and Gatrie are looking very strong, while Ike hasn't gained a single point of defense in ten levels! I slapped a knight ring on him in the hope of addressing this issue.

I intend to avoid using laguz, even though they're pretty good in PoR. They're crap in RD, and I want to carry my team over. I'll probably end up taking, Mist, Rolf, Nephenee, Elincia, Jill and Haar to endgame. Everyone else is going to have to work for the privilige!

This time I know to ignore Sothe... in my first playthough I invested a lot of experience in him, and he was looking really strong until I found out that he can't be promoted.

He is worth it if you're trying for a transfer file, though. If you get him to level 20, his stats will transfer exactly as they are to Radiant Dawn, though that can be a liability (sometimes he'll cap out under the normal starting values for RD Sothe, then you get screwed over), but if you're willing to give him the juice, as it were, investing in him is a prime opportunity for a transfer file

Yeah, in my RD game Sothe had most of his stats capped before level 15, so I don't think I need the PoR bonus for him.

And even with all those green numbers, he was relatively ineffective towards the end and I ended up holding him back in some of the later battles.

I know, Ike should be a juggernaut! My Ike's defense is currently tied with Soren's. And he has more levels than Soren.
