Estelle

*A self-proclaimed expert on Lightbringer magic.*

 Elmer ("Husband")

**Estelle** is a playable character in *Andaron Saga*. She is a highly eccentric light mage and self-proclaimed expert on many topics, including the Lightbringers.

## In Game

### *Andaron Saga*

#### Overall

Estelle is a very powerful mage. Her bases are decent for her level, especially her speed since she’s able to double as soon as you get her. Her high offensive growths will ensure that she will be able to deal consistent damage, and her high speed coupled with her decent luck will help to alleviate her physical squishiness. That, however, is relatively irrelevant to worry about because of her personal skill, Dazzle. This prevents any counterattacks when initiating, so Estelle will be able to safely attack at any range, making Dazzle one of the best personal skills in the game. Because of that, she’s primarily an offensive unit, as her low physical bulk and her somewhat low hp makes her a sitting duck when being initiated on. As per any foot-locked unit with the exception of Runa, she will also struggle to keep up with any mounted units in open maps, which there are a lot of in Act I.

Her damage output is somewhat mitigated by the low might of light tomes, but two supports can help alleviate this. Unlocking an A-support with Albert grants Estelle Tomefaire, granting her an additional +4 damage when she wields a tome during combat, which should be all the time. Unlocking an A-support with Dawn grants Estelle Holy Aura, which grants her +1 damage instead of +4, but in exchange grants +5% hit, 5% avoid, and 5% crit, the former two partially wasted due to light Magic’s innately high hit and her personal skill alleviating the need to dodge. Her support with Garam grants her +2 movement when in proximity of a mounted unit, which also allows her to keep up with the front lines.

#### Promotion Gains

#### Overall

Elmer is unfortunately a candidate for one of the worst units in the game. His biggest glaring weakness is that he starts with no weapon rank for magic, instead being stuck with a Magic Missle, a 5 might “staff” that can’t heal and deals minimal damage. In addition, he’s a trainee of course, so he’s stuck with 4 movement and deliberately poor bases, and he will be unable to meaningfully contribute for anything without significant babying. His growths are also really weird, having good growths in both strength and magic, subpar speed, and surprising defense for a mage. Seemingly, he wants to be a defensive mage coupled with his high hp pool, but it’s hard to pull that off when you are susceptible to exploding in one hit.

After getting past his trainee phase, he has the option to choose between Mage, Monk, and Shaman, all of which he faces heavy competition with. He competes for a Mage with Shom, and by extension Shay and Runa if they have a B-support with Shom, but all of them will most likely be trained and have better stats and weapon rank than Elmer, Shay and Runa offering additional movement alongside that. Elmer competes with Estelle for Monk, whom he can support with to potentially obtain the Dazzle skill, which prevents counterattacks and pairs nicely with Elmer’s personal skill, Cowardice, which grants him extra damage when initiating combat at range. Estelle, however, has more speed to take advantage of her offensive safety and also has supports that grant damage boosting skills. Elmer then competes with Emilia as a shaman, which she is in a league of her own with her absurd utility, damage output, and an unconventional regalia later.

Unless you want to take advantage of his strength growth and use swords down the Sage path, Elmer is not a unit worth using a master seal on, or a unit worth using at all for that matter.

## In Game

### *Andaron Saga*

#### Recruitment

Spawns on turn 2 with Berit as a green unit. Talk to Berit with Baudimon or Jakka to recruit.

#### Overall

Bjarki along with Berit are the first true axe fighters the player has access to, and they both fulfil different roles, with Bjarki acting as the defensive axe fighter with a strong personal skill and high physical bulk. While his starting strength and strength growth are solid, his poor speed and speed growth means he is very unlikely to double most units, and is in fact more likely to be doubled himself. This does not cripple his survivability against physical units, however, as his strong defensive bases coupled with his skill giving +4 defense on enemy phase means many weaker enemies will simply clank on him for no damage. He should nevertheless be kept well away from faster mage characters as his magical bulk is unimpressive.

As a physical tank, Bjarki functions best when absorbing large amounts of damage from lots of weaker units, killing them or softening them up for allies to come in and clean up what remains. His excellent constitution lets him wield most kinds of axes without suffering a speed penalty, which can be helpful in avoiding doubling thresholds against faster opponents with heavy weapons. When promoted to a Warrior, he also gains access to bows, which is always a useful trait on the multitude of maps that feature heavy use of flying units such as Ch. 8 or Ch. 20, as well as the new effective bows introduced in *Andaron Saga* such as the Dragon Bow.

Bjarki can also be a candidate for the position of Jarl in Ch. 18 - he has the highest overall Con of all the Jarl candidates and thus is slowed the least by using the axe, and makes great use of it as a strong tool for killing units that are too fast for him to double on both player and enemy phase.

Ch. 27 Abominations

this chapter can be very hard on higher difficulties due to the abominations that will spawn if you activate the 3 tiles who have a crosses on them.

locations: one at the start of the level, one on the top left and top right, this will open the gate at the bottom of the map allowing you to proceed.

The opening of the doors will cause Jakka to go in alone, I recommend moving him back to your other units.

Now, the boss of this chapter 'Alvaro' will make his way to you and wields a powerful weapon, "Hellblazer" a 1-2 range weapon with a decent crit rate on some of your units, so watch out!

I personally recommend using a somewhat bulky character to fight him if your afraid of crits, or use dawn if she is still alive at that point.

now after activating all the tiles and making Alvaro appear abominations will spawn that also have some pretty powerful weapons and good stats, so it will likely take around 2 characters to take 1 down, they only spawn on stair tiles, and only once, so you can deal with them.

you can also talk to Alvaro with Emillia forcing her to become an enemy requiring you to kill her if you choose to do so. If you you have Varg or Angulus deployed and have either of them talk to her however, she turns back into an ally.

MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE YOU TAKE ALL OF EMILLIA'S ITEMS OFF HER WHEN MAKING HER CHANGE SIDES. For Whatever reason, talking to her while she's grayed with Angulus seems to turn her into a red unit permanently.

this map requires you to kill every enemy, so no skipping out!

if you have uses left of the Ragnarok or Dire Thunder tome it can quite possibly kill Alvaro in one full round of combat, if your willing to take the risk of a magic unit dying
Dawncaller

The Dawncaller is a personal sword for Baudimon, it gets offered to him by Mortimer at the start of chapter 2 and the player can either accept or refuse the weapon. The choice will influence some events in the game, notably the possibility for recruitment of certain characters.

If you accept the Dawncaller you will not be able to recruit Zakarias in chapter 5 but Dawn will automatically join your group in chapter 14. If you don't accept the Dawncaller Randall will wield it in chapter 12.

(Subjective)
Accepting the Dawncaller will make the game easier. For example Baudimon having the skill Renewal makes him incredibly hard to kill and able to deal by himself with entire parts of a map. While Zakarias has the skill slayer that helps in certain chapters and S-Rank in staves, the Dawncaller too is effective against terrors and you get plenty of characters with high rank in staves. Furthermore Dawn has extremely good bases/growths/caps making her a way better character than Zakarias.

He's also an oppurtunist he takes advantage of the situation like in ch 29x in his conversation with Jakka where Jakka picks up on the fact he's only encouraging him to be king because of the fact they are personal acquaintances now.

Ch. 10 Malthrak Ablaze

**Malthrak Ablaze** is the 10th chapter of Andaron Saga.

## Gameplay

Although the stated objective of the map is to Defend at least 9 turns, the player is required to visit at least 10 houses before the time expires or they will receive a Game Over.

The player's units will spawn in 3 groups of 5 along the left side of the map. The southern zones will usually see the most fighting, particularly when the House Ashburn reinforcements arrive, so it is often best to send the middle group southwards to assist there as Baudimon and Mortimer are very capable of dealing with the northern half of the map by themselves or with only modest assistance.

Units with flier mobility are exceedingly useful on this map due to the number of walls and obstructions, but they must be wary of the number of bow units on the map, particularly the Longbow Sniper who spawns close to the player's position.

This map contains one of only two single-use **Warp** staffs available in the entire game - the bottom-left-most house is normally destroyed on turn 1, but can be visited by using an early-promoted Shay assisted by Angelus and several Rescue staff uses to clear or distract the brigands before the first enemy phase. If this is done, PH will be in the house and hand the player the Warp staff.

Another house that is normally either destroyed turn 1 or almost impossible to save in the lower left corner contains Chel, though this will only grant the player an Antitoxin and is not worth the effort to save.

## In Game

### *Andaron Saga*

#### Recruitment

In Ch. 9, enter combat against her with Jakka; she must not be defeated. In Ch. 14, talk to her with Jakka. She will be automatically recruited at the start of Ch. 14x if she survived Ch. 14.

She can also be recruited in Ch. 28 if the player has not recruited or defeated her earlier. She will appear as an enemy on turn 7 alongside a battalion of Duke Knights. Talk with Jakka to recruit.

#### Overall

Caroline is one of the hardest units to recruit given running the risk of having to go through Alexander’s overpowered army. If you do manage to recruit her, Caroline is a great all-rounder paladin that neatly serves as a filler unit if you are missing a deployment slot. The biggest improvement to paladins in this game is that they have an expanded weapon selection, female paladins in particular getting access to anima magic, giving Caroline a nice niche as a mixed damage fighter with a multitude of 1-2 range options. She also starts with good starting weaponry and ranks to use a wide selection weapons, including magic weaponry, making her extremely flexible off the bat. She has good enough speed to double consistently, well-rounded offensive stats, and balanced defenses that allow her to take at least one blow before retreating. Her combative prowess is further improved by her personal skill, Chivalry, which allows her to deal more damage and take less damage against 100% hp foes. All her growths are well-rounded as well, ensuring that she’ll growth into a decently strong unit if she sees frequent use.

As an additional benefit, she also is eligible for a regalia, albeit through high unconventional means. This involves a 3-step process that first starts with a 2% chance to gain the Voidshield skill after ending her turn in specific zones in chapter 17, navigating to find the Weird Sage in the RNG-based mess that is chapter 24 to swap Voidshield for Watchful, and then entering a Vendor in the stressful boss rush that is chapter 29. After all of that, Caroline can obtain the Claymore, an 18 might sword that grants +10 speed and luck as well as the Duelist Blow skill, grants +30 avoid when initiating, skyrocketing Caroline’s evasion on both phases. Claymore is a devil weapon, so she runs the risk of dealing damage to herself, but with her decent luck growth and the sword itself grants luck, this shouldn’t be a prevalent issue. Of course, this is a very unlikely occurrence, and on a normal playthrough she won’t have access to the Claymore.

Ch. 31 Light's Return

**Light's Return** is the 31st and potentially final chapter of Andaron Saga.

## Gameplay

* If Jakka took the deal with Asmodeus in Ch. 17, then he will perish in the end cutscene of this chapter before meeting his family, giving the player a Game Over. It is therefore impossible to complete the game if the deal is ever taken.

End of spoilers.

## Trivia

* The ancestors will still appear even if the player's army has no viable units left that can wield their respective Regalia.
	+ In addition, Vaught and Ash will still appear even if the player never obtained the Voidflare (due to not killing Nemesis) or Ashcleaver (due to killing Geoffrey in Ch. 11 without Ariel being present).
* The single Warp staff found in Ch. 10 cannot be used to end this map early - if a unit is teleported into the upper area where Mortimer resides before it becomes accessible, PH will teleport in and give the player an immediate Game Over. This will also occur if the player is able to manipulate the Rescue staff to place a unit on the stairs behind the blocking Greater Auras and have them walk to the upper area.

## In Game

### *Andaron Saga*

#### Overall

Jokingly nicknamed by the community as "Mr. 35", Fred joins in Ch. 2 at a higher level and with likely higher bases than most characters available at that point in the game. His former name comes from his completely balanced growth rates - once 35, now a flat 40 across the board except for HP, which is 2x40 instead. Although not having any particular standout growths, Fred is served well by his high bases, giving him an Oifey-like role in the early game as a strong combatant with solid growth rates to be able to competently scale.

He remains lance-locked throughout the run, with his promotion to Duke Knight only further reinforcing his balanced nature by giving +3 in almost every stat. Nevertheless, access to good 1-2 range options gives him lots of flexbility - physically bulky axe users would normally give him trouble, but Fred can get around this by making use of his balanced offensive growths with a Flame Lance, of which the earliest can be acquired in Ch. 13, giving him reasonable mixed damage output.

Fred is also noteworthy as being the only playable wielder of the **Gladiolus**, one of the most versatile Regalia in the game for its balance of power, stat boosts and granting Sol when held. Obtaining the item is normally only possible in Ch. 29, but it can also be obtained early by defeating Alexander with Fred in Ch. 9 or Ch. 14. Attempting to do so is exceedingly risky, as Alexander is much more powerful than any player character at this point of the game and Fred is unlikely to have 100% hitrate on him, but if it can be acquired Fred is one of the most powerful units for the midgame, especially on maps with large numbers of Terrors.

## In Game

### *Andaron Saga*

#### Recruitment

Recruited automatically at the start of turn 1.

#### Overall

As per most pre-promotes of this game, Helga is a solid filler combat unit. She starts at a healthy level where she’ll be on par to most of your promoted units by then, and comes with incredible offensive bases; great speed to double foes immediately, great magic to deal dark magic damage, great skill to increase her crit chances with the Ruin tome, and a healthy constitution that’ll alleviate any potential weight issues. She also has excellent growth to match, including surprisingly high defensive growths; for reference, she ties with Theodor for the highest defense of any spellcaster in the game with the exception of Galahad and Steel Knight Isabelle. She also comes with fantastic weapon ranks, allowing her to wield any dark or anima tome in the game outside of regalia tomes, including the Volsunga tome, a unique 1-3 range Nosferatu. To top it all of, she’s a flier, which means she can easily cross over terrain and tag far away enemies.

Helga’s best attribute is her two skills that she has access to. The first is her personal skill, Lifetaker, which restores 50% of her max hp when she kills an enemy. This gives her self-sustain in the case where she’s caught up against multiple foes on enemy phase. Her other skill, Galeforce, is unlocked if you destroy 13 rifts in chapter 17, which she becomes nuts. She‘s able to potentially kill two enemies on one player phase or freely disengage after killing one enemy. This makes Helga an exceptional offensive unit and one of the stronger non-regalia units in the game.

Helga faces direct competition with a Falcoknight Shay, provided that the latter has unlocked a B-support with her brother, Shom, where she gains access to anima magic herself. Shay has comparable growths to Helga, allowing her to be just as strong as an offensive threat in terms of sheer stats. While Helga may have a stronger offensive presence with her skills and better defenses, Shay offers more utility in having access to staves, able to fly across terrain and heal far allies. She also has access to a regalia in Archgale, a wind tome that immensely boosts her speed and gives her a greater chance to proc her Glacies skill, which can offer a large burst of damage if it does trigger. Shay may have a greater presence in endgame with these benefits, but Helga is still able to hold her own offensively.

16x Skadi's Clemency

**Skadi's Clemency** is the 9th Gaiden chapter of Andaron Saga.

## Gameplay

As with other gaiden chapters, the chapter predominantly exists to allow the player to talk to the characters for lore or background reasons.

The Shop and Armory on this map may be used to buy items and equipment.

On turn 2, if still alive, Jaheira will approach Jakka and request to leave to attend to matters in Timaet. If Jakka asks her to stay, she will remain with the team through the rest of the Hornheim arc to no other effect. If her request is granted, she will leave the party until her return at the start of Ch. 20 - upon her return, she will be given increased stats, including a free promotion if she was not already promoted. In addition, she will also be gifted a personal weapon, the Wyrmblade, a reaver sword that is also effective against dragons.

If Jaheira had already been defeated prior to this chapter, no such choice will be given. She will still return to the party in Ch. 20, but will not be given any stat boosts, promotion or unique weapon.

## Gameplay

As with other gaiden chapters, the chapter predominantly exists to allow the player to talk to the characters for lore or background reasons.

Speaking to Ahmed in this chapter will give access to his shop, which will sell rare equipment such as Wingclippers and Eternal Seals at exorbitant prices. Saving up gold specifically for this chapter can therefore be a good idea if the player is running low on power weapons or many characters are nearing the level cap.

In addition, if Jakka was able to acquire the unique Ring from the bottom-left Mimic chest in Ch. 24, he may speak to Khepri in the top-right of the map to trigger an exchange where the ring is returned to her and she receives a +1 bonus to all of her stats and the Solidarity skill.

**Hailey** is a playable character in *Andaron Saga*. She is a calculating young woman working as huntress in Northhaven, friend of Albert and embittered half-sister of Liam and Gabriel of House Ring and daughter of the presumed-dead Lord Wilbert.

## In Game

### *Andaron Saga*

#### Recruitment

Spawns as a green unit on turn 1. Talk to her with Baudimon, Jakka or Kurt to recruit.

#### Overall

Hailey is a really good sniper prepromote and offensive unit. On an average playthrough, she will be the fastest unit that you get in act I party base-stat wise, so she’ll immediately double every enemy on the map on hard mode. She also has an excellent personal skill in Quick Draw, granting a raw +5 damage when initiating, and class skill in Crit Boost +15, making her a 2-range swordmaster with a killer bow. As per most prepromotes in the game, she also has good growths in strength, skill, speed, and luck, so she will be able to grow quite well if she finds usage. Her lack of melee combat is certainly a drawback, but her starting base speed and her decent luck grants her enough avoid to dodge attacks from anything not a promoted unit in her join chapter.

What makes her really cracked is that she is eligible for an early regalia, that being the Galeshot bow. In order to obtain this, Kurt must also be alive and you must kill the boss Liam in chapter 9 before turn 7, where his brother Gabriel will take it off of him and it won’t show up again until chapter 29. You won’t be able to use it immediately, but Hailey being a prepromote allows her to reach S-rank with enough training, arguably faster than Kurt, the other Galeshot candidate. He does make better use of the Galeforce skill it provides; he’s able to kill two enemies and can run away with his Canto+ skill being a mounted unit. However, he must use a master seal in order to reach S-rank bows and his growths are more in line with an actual main-line GBA prepromote, so he may not grow very far. Hailey is still able to utilize Galeforce well enough, being able to kill two enemies with greater effectiveness because of her innate skills, and the bow itself passively grants +10 skill and speed, so she will have a great chance to massacre anyone in her sights and will not be doubled by anything until endgame, which by then she’s close to or already capped speed.
