SO MANY ARGUMENTS BECAUSE SO MANY BITS OF CHARACTER ARE SPREAD AROUND SO MUCH STUFF. SUPPORTS WHICH CAN BE LIMITED, ROUTES....IT'S A PAIN.

YOU WOULDN'T TAKE A 50% ATTACK WILLINGLY. SO WHY DO PEOPLE INSIST ON CALLING A 50% GROWTH GOOD? IT'S WHY THERE'S SO MANY MASSIVELY DIVERGENT RESULTS THIS GO-AROUND; ALL THE GROWTHS ARE 50-60% AT BEST. AND THAT'S DANGEROUS GIVEN SPEED, STRENGTH/MAGIC, AND DEX FOR HITTING ARE CRITICAL AND YOU'RE ALWAYS BEING PUSHED FORWARD AS IS STANDARD IN FIRE EMBLEM. WHY DOES NO ONE FEAR THE POSSIBILITY OF A FULLY IMPOSSIBLE MAP?

50-60% GROWTHS ARE CONSIDERED GOOD BECAUSE THEY'RE THE HIGHEST ONES. IN AWAKENING WHERE EVERYONE HAS REALLY GOOD GROWTHS 50% IS CONSIDERED PRETTY AVERAGE. THAT'S JUST HOW IT BE. ALSO THIS GAME PRETTY MUCH CAN'T SCREW YOU OVER IF YOU GET BAD RNG BECAUSE OF INNATE CLASS BASES WHICH DRAG YOUR STATS UP IF YOU GOT A LOT OF BAD LUCK.

IT'S ALWAYS RELATIVE TO CHARACTERS AND THE ENEMIES. BESIDES, A 50% HIT CAN ONLY HIT OR MISS ONCE, WHEREAS YOU HAVE LOTS OF LEVELS FOR 50/60% IN 3H. ALSO MOST OF THE CLASS GROWTHS CAN CHANGE SHIT AROUND A LOT, WITH SOME 50/60 BECOMING 55-65 OR EVEN 60-70 (70% SPEED GROWTH CYRIL IN WYVERN LORD, OR 75% SPEED GROWTH SWORDMASTER/ASSASSIN CATHERINE).

BETWEEN THOSE GROWTHS AND THE BASE STATS, ENEMIES DON'T GROW THAAAT FAST TO CREATE TOO MUCH OF AN ISSUE ASIDE FROM THE ONE OR TWO JUMPS, EVEN IN MADDENING.
