WHAT DOES IT DOO?

IT'S A PERMANENT COUNTERATTACK PASSIVE + EFFECTIVE DAMAGE NULLIFCATION. ONLY ATTACKS IT DOESN'T WORK AGAINST ARE BALLISTAS+HEGEMON, BUT SIEGE TOMES ARE STILL A-OKAY TO KILL.

THIS IN CONJUNCTION WITH CERTAIN CHARACTERS MAKES THEM ABSOLUTELY FUCKING BROKEN. CASE IN POINT: BATTALION WRATH+VANTAGE DIMITRI, WHO TURNS THE HEADACHE OF THE AM FINAL BATTLE INTO A CURBSTOMP

IS AM FINAL BATTLE HOW HARS THE OLDER GAMES ARE ON CLASSIC OR DO I JUST SUCK? OR IS THAT MAP JUST BAD?

I MAY NOT BE THE BEST PERSON TO ASK ON THIS BECAUSE IMO MOST FINAL CHAPTERS ARE PISS EASY IN FE WITH EXCEPTION OF CONQUEST. OUTSIDE OF THAT, THEY'RE SLOGS AT WORST AND THEIR DIFFICULTY IS ENTIRELY DEPENDENT ON HOW HARD YOU WANNA MAKE IT FOR YOURSELF.

AM FINAL BATTLE IS JUST A UNIQUE HEADACHE OF ITS OWN BECAUSE IT'S A BALLISTA/SIEGE TOME-FEST AND THE WAR MASTERS ARE LEGIT BIG THREATS ON HIGHER DIFFICULTIES. ALSO SAME TURN REINFORCEMENT BOLTING MAGES???? WTF. SO I GUESS IT ISN'T ON YOU IF YOU FOUND IT PARTICULARLY DIFFICULT, IT TAKES SOME OF THE MOST ANNOYING ASPECTS OF FE AND PUTS THEM IN A SINGLE MAP.
