Pondering if I should really play on lunatic next. Another playthrough on normal might be better for two reasons: Experimenting with different characters and skill builds without worrying about dying or the need for heavy grinding, and writing down where and when reinforcements will appear on all maps. There were a bunch of maps that pissed me off on my current playthrough. At least I lucked out on Severa's map when a group appeared right after she had talked to Holland.

The "where" will remain the same, but the "when" changes between difficulty levels. The harder the difficulty, the sooner the reinforcements appear.

Lunatic differences include:

More and stronger enemies. 

Enemies show up with better weapons earlier. 

Enemies with a lot more skills (very apparent late game).  Also lots of enemies get +10 Hit Rating skill.

Reinforcements appear earlier.

After Chapter 4/5 Risen Encounters are fully promoted and have most stats capped.

Exp is penalized even more.

Can't exp exploit, as it eventually becomes 0.

Last boss gets new Lunatic only skill, Rightful God (+30% skill activation).  So he gonna Ignis your ass every turn!

Now I am scared and will never play lunatic.

It's not that bad.  It is a bit overwelming early on, and some of the DLC is quite hard too, but its a worth while diffculty.

 

Now Lunatic+ will make you pee blood...

Same as Lunatic but with 1 difference.  Every enemy gets 2 random skills (usually Lunatic+ skills)

Lunatic+ Only Skills:

Vantage+ = Always attacks first.

Aegis/Pavise+ = Passive ability.

Luna+ = Every attack has Luna effect.

Hawkeye = Will always hit target.

 

At Chapter 3 you start running into Counter. 

Marksmen with Counter. : /

Married Chrom to Olivia and currently grinding levels so she becomes anything other than a huge "PLEASE KILL ME!" beacon.

Since Lucina is soon to become a playable character, I have to get the Parents skills as soon as possible right? That means getting Galeforce from Dark Flier Olivia and Aether from Great Lord Chrom.

Chrom is unique when passing down skills.  Lucina (or any of his daughters) will get Aether from Chrom even if he was a Lv 1 Lord, his current skills have no sway in what he passes down.

My Chrom is gaining levels as a Great Lord naturally because I'm pairing him up with Olivia so she can solo Skirmishes/DLC for fast level up. Should I hold up until she hits Lvl 30 dancer before reclassing to Pegasus Knight?

If you lv her to 30 you should just go striaght for Dark Flier.

That seems a much better option then. She's already at Lvl 24 so there isn't much to go. Some of the Fire Emblem DLC team are really good for EXP XD.

Dark Flier Olivia at level 6 can solo any of the Fire Emblem DLC maps while sitting comfortably on a Fort. Pretty OP

Well, the highest one that I have is Lyn at Lvl 18 Swordmaster. When Paired up with Great Lord 10 Chrom, Olivia has 212 Rating, which is just boss. 

And yeah, i'm grinding a lot. The grind is pretty enjoyable, plus I want my Lucina and Inigo to be badasses .
