What was your endgame team after finishing your first playthrough?

[Ayanami]

I've just finished this tight game, and I am more than dedicated to create my endgame team for the particular playthrough and here they are...

These are the characters that I have used to finish the game and without any arenas, as I have never used any in this playthrough. Truthfully, you do not need them in this game. Also, when you promote the clerics and mages, they start out at E level in the secondary weapon that they can use instead of using any that they want like in the older versions.

Characters that I have used in the last chapter and throughout the game.

Last Chapter

Marth
Lord LV29

Falchion
Fire Emblem

Main Character.

Navarre
Swordmaster LV14/14

Miracle Sword
Devil Sword

He definitely is better than Raddy. Look at his promoted class, he is badass and a true sword saint. He grows alot more Strength than Raddy.

Maria

Priestess LV 20/9

Elfire
Thunder
Blizzard
Reserve
Warp

A great healer that grows more luck and speed than the other healers and more defense than Rena.

Medeia

Paladin LV15

Killer Lance
Armor Killer
Dragon Killer
Thunder Sword
Dragon Lance

What can I say, she is one of the best prepromos in the game.

Rena

Priestess LV 20/8

Elfire
Thunder
Harmain
Reserve
Recover

An important character, because of being the only character that can use the Harmain Staff.

Sheeda

Dragon Knight LV16/11

Wing Spear
Silver Lance
Steel Axe
Hand Axe

Because she grows more luck and speed than the other pegasi units. She is the only one that can use the Wing Spear and that she is Marth's love interest! She is probably the best flier in the game, also she has a sticker in SSBB.

Minerva

Dragon Knight LV13

Dragon Lance
Silver Lance
Hand Spear
Silver Axe

Great prepromo character, though she will have some trouble towards the endgame. Grow her to around 12, and she will be just assertive enough. An average character. That special axe that was only exclusive for her, I broke it.

Linda

Sage LV16/11

Aura
Starlight
Warp
Magic Staff
Relieve

Let me put it simply THE BEST DAMNED MAGE IN THE GAME. Of course she is not to be ignored. Daughter of Gato's student Miroa.

Maric

Sage LV18/5

Excalibur
Bolganon
Thoron
Relieve
Magic Staff

2nd best Mage in the game. Excalibur can pwn those frecking fliers and can defeat Michael with ease. A special case, a student of Wendel's that graduated from the acadamy and that maric wanted to go back to his homeland after his tudies and as a going away present, Wendel gave Maric the Excalibur tome.

Est

Dragon Knight LV 17/7

Silver Lance
Iron Axe

2nd best pegasus unit in the game.

Jake

Shooter LV LV17

Quick Rain
Stonehendge
Fire Gun
Thunder Cannon
Elephant

Best shooter in the game, and boyfriend to the narrorator, Anna.

Julian

Thief LV18

Thunder Sword
Devil Sword
Dragon Killer

An important unit to use.

Doga

General LV16/5

Iron Bow
Silver Lance
Dragon Lance
Gladius

He is awesome. He comes earliest, but has trouble growing luck, but so what, his defense will skyrocket overtime and that his Mag Defense will increse to 3 upon class change. Better than Thomth, because he joins alot earlier and that you get the chance to develop his fighting power even more than anyone else.

Freyr

Paladin LV 17/7

Kill Sword
Thunder Sword
Iron Lance

An excellent Paladin, he will rival Kain and Abel easily.

Oguma

Hero LV 20/6

Silver Sword
Steel Axe
Hand Axe
Thunder Sword

Simply put, he is badass. He can possibly be the best darned unit in the entire game. He also joins alot earlier than any other fencer unit. We all know that in Marth's games...Heros rock. Has a love interest for Sheeda and also captain of Talis.

Gato

Sage LV18

Thoron
Worm
Reserve
Recover

Someone that you get automatically.

What is your team...

[VincentASM is too important to have a messed up name]

I was trying to get all the gaiden chapters, so my team is pretty small, I think.

Marth w/ weak Falchion

I actually used him quite a bit, unlike in FE3. I think those 10 extra Levels were quite helpful.

Linda w/ Aura, Thoron, Star Orb

Too bad Aura is no longer exclusive to Linda, but it takes some effort to get another female magic-user to reach B in Tomes. Otherwise she seems just as good as in FE3.

Marich w/ Excalibur

Good as usual, although Excalibur is a little weaker (in terms of critical rating).

Freyr w/ Gradius

Freyr is great : )

Kain w/ Miracle Sword

He was pretty so-and-so, unlike in my (unfinished) FE1 playthrough. Abel was doing better than him, until he died.

Sheeda w/ Wing Spear, Light Orb

Wing Spear made her more useful. Hiwever she died near the end of the game (before I got the Iote Shield), so by the time I resurrected her, she was pretty weak compared to the others and didn't get much use.

Rena w/ Blizza, Warp, Fortify

Staves are pretty weak in this game, but it's always nice to tag a healer around. I didn't think Rena was anything special, but I can imagine the other healers are worse.

[St. Pius X]

I accidentally hit the "nuke all save data" option because I didn't know what I was doing, but I'll try to salvage what I can from memory.

Katua - She turned out hax. 19 Defense was more than anyone else on the team, and she had tons of HP, capped Dragon Knight's strength, skill, and speed. I'll use her every playthrough now. Paola's not as hot as Paola was in FE3
She had the Silver Lance, Steel Lance, Iote Shield, Dragon Lance or Killer Lance.
Marth - I got him a lot of levels from reinforcement abuse in the previous chapter. I remember he capped Strength. Just as awesome as he was in Book 2 of FE3.
He had the Falchion; I don't remember whether it was the big one or the small one.
Sheeda - She had really high luck and speed. Strength and Defense was 12 and 14, respectively.
She had the Wing Spear, Silver Lance, and a couple others.

Oguma - Silver Sword, Steel Sword, Dragon Killer, Miracle Sword. Nothing less than than what I expected.
Linda - Because I forgot to recruit Marich and needed a Starlight user. 
Aura, Bolganon, Elfire, Thunder...
Navvare - He was not as awesome as before. He only had 15 strength.

Hardin - He had 20 or 21 speed, and 18 strength. He got the Gladius.

Abel - Nothing spectacular this playthrough. Somehow he just stopped gaining speed...
I also took Kashim, Barts, Julian, Rena and Freyr...Alas, Freyr was not near Level 20, so no promotion...

[Shirona]

As I remember...

Marth (Falchion)
Freyr
Oguma (Miracle)
Abel (Partia)
Minerva (Hauteclaire)
Beck
Sheeda (Gradius)
Est
Julian
Marich (Excalibur, Stralight)
Rena
Linda (Aura)
Maria
Chiki
Banutu
(Gato)

All of them had their regular promoted class, except Abel as a Sniper. :S

As a prepromote, is Minerva supposed to be bad? She didn't end up as good as I was hoping...

[Celice]

If anyone's interested in Wi-Fi, I'm game

[SlippyToasterTrooper_UK]

I'll try to be as brief as possible and most people got promoted on Chapter 24 meaning I had pretty low levels all round

Marth. Abused the map before to about level 23 (good job as before that he was like level 8 it was like this in FE3 book1 as well)
Rena. Level 8 I recall (made her a Sage and used two manuals so she could use Worm)
Linda. Level 2 (hopeless. another Worm user but too slow to really do much else)
Marich. Level 8 (bit meh. again worm)
Kashim. Level 8 (pants really. Patria usage and killing Dragon Knights is he is good for and even those i'm not sure are too great)
Barts. Level 9 (Brilliant throughout the game)
Oguma. Level 8 (Not as great as Barts but nice still)
Kain. Level 6 (Lots of HP, reasonalbe stats)
Abel. Level 6 (See Kain)
Pegasus Sisters (Poala was okay, Est was decent and Katua was amazing)
Beck. Level 26 (boots usage. Nice damage dealer though in the final map couldn't kill the shooters and left them with 1 HP )
Chainey. Level 15 (Beck 2.0 for much of the time though there was a map as Barts 2.0)
Chiki. Level 18
Gato. Compulsory & worm FTW (it was down to 8 uses at the end of the map...which finished turn 9)

I think that was everyone.

Others who didn't get to play on the final map.
Julian. Too neglected to be able to do anything. Gave him a manual to get C rank to not be totally useless (Thunder Sword and slayer weapons)
Navarre. Man I tried (class swapping, arena abuse) but he never recovered from awful bases. Speed and little else.
Sheeda. Ran out of promotion items (I forogt to buy any more)
Doga. Didn't need walls later on.

I was left with 5 of every stat booster except boots which I had zero of and manuals which I had two of. Prehaps I should have used some of them

[Team Rocket Elite]

Lv30 Marth
Lv--/9 Mitobehho >_>

Mitobehho was a C rank staff user. I spent the first half of the game soloing chapters with Marth and the second half of the game abusing Warp Staff.

[Jedor]

Level 30 Marth, Falchion: turned out rather well, capped speed and strength and came close with luck, not much else to say.

20/20 Paladin Abel, assorted lances: Turned out amazing, Kain and Freyr were turning out to be absolute shit while Abel was speeding ahead, capped strength, skill, and speed.

20/20 Sage Rena, assorted staves/tomes: Another one that turned out amazing, I compared her averages and she was a good amount above every average, without the Sage/Bishop stat differences.

20/18 Sage Sheeda, assorted staves/tomes: She actually beat out Linda and Maric, who only ever seemed to gain skill and luck , her res was a little low not being a 'natural' magic user, but all of her other stats were nice and high, capped speed, luck, and skill.

20/9 Hero Barts, assorted swords: Turned out alright, gained a good amount of strength despite being a Mercenary for the majority of his levels.

20/17 Paladin Katua, Gladius: God damn, Katua. At first I considered not using her, for some reason the pegasus sisters never appealed to me in FE1/Book 1, but I decided to give her a go and she turned out unbelievably well, capped strength, speed, skill, and luck.

20/12 Paladin Est, assorted lances: Turned out pretty good, gave her a shot after seeing the AWESOME that was Katua.

xx/20 Hero Wolf, mostly handaxes >_>: After seeing the horseman's growths during the pre-release flood of info, I decided I had to give one of them a try and chose Wolf for his funny haircut <.<. Turned out alright, was useful early game for weakening things with axes once I made him a Hero.

Gato I didn't use him, at all. Rena and Sheeda were more useful, I sent his tome and staff over to Sheeda and just sort of left him where he was.

Chainy: Usually copied Abel or Katua, not much else to say here.

20/3 Ellis, staves: Used mostly for lols, she's so baaaaaadd.

[Holyn]

Level 30 Marth: Falchion

Legion of Generic Pre-Promotes

Ellis

Gato

I overwrote my original chapter 17 playthrough with a chapter 2 H5 file, so I killed everyone off on a new normal game and figured it would take less effort to finish the game, and it did. 

[KiddoCabbusses]

Right, let me try to remember this here..

Obviously, Marth. He was underleveled like heck.

Marich, Bishop

Linda, Bishop

Julian, but just to open doors and crap - I had him avoid contact with enemies. He was also underleveled.

Navarre, Swordmaster

Oguma, Hero

Barts, Warrior - Probably should've made him a Hero instead now that I think of it, but either way, woahmg! He was so powerful at this point he had high stats in nearly everything but defense, wiped out most of the nemies, and was able to equip Minerva's Axe had I needed to send him up against Medeus.

George, Sniper - Because I didn't have any good archers this playthrough.

Hardain, Paladin - He whacked people with the Gradius Lance like a nutcase. He even criticaled Medeus with him, turning the boss from fearful to a joke.

Beck - in this playthrough, I prefered him over Jake.

Chainy - Would transform into Beck for extra shootage.

Sheeda, Dragon Knight

Rena, Bishop

Maria, Cleric - I ran out of bishops...?

Gato - Worm worm worm recover etc etc.

[dynamo]

Marth   30
Abel     20/18
Freyr    20/17
Sheeda 20/5
Oguma  20/11
Navarre 20/16 (Sniper)
Marich   20/10
Hardin   20/9
Rena     20/7
Nagi      18

the characters I used.

[hyde]

Lessee ...

Marth, Level 30 with Falchion and Fire Emblem. Not much to say here, he was alright. I gave him a few stat-ups to fix his skill and defence, but that was all.

Abel, level 20/20 with Wo Dao, Javelin, Dragon Lance, Killer Lance and Brave Sword.[/b] He was great, helped me through a lot of rough parts. He also maxed  skill and speed with strength only one point away.

Oguma, level 20/20 with forged max-crit Killer Sword, Brave Sword, Killer Axe, Hand Axe and Dragonsword. He was pretty good, though his strength lagged a bit and he didn't max anything. Still, the high level meant he owned the enemies.

Rena, level 20/20 (sage) with Relive, Fortify, Aura, Starlight and Warp. I turned her into a sage after promotion, because I was killing off everyone I wasn't planning on using to get to the Gaiden chapters. I was planning on using Marich, but he died in the arena and I didn't want to restart.

Navarre, level 20/15 with Miracle Sword, Silver Sword, Wo Dao, Brave Sword and forged max-everything Dragonsword (for laughs). He was great. Nothing much to add here, really.

Etzel, level ?/17 with Excalibur, Excalibur, Relive, Warp and Fortify. I thought he looked cool so I had to use him. Fed him a few Spirit Powders and Speedwings and he ended up good. Not amazing and only mediocre without stat-ups, but ... well, just look at him!

Hymir, level ?/17 (Horseman) with Killer Bow, Silver Bow, Longbow, forged max-strength Steel bow and Steel Sword. Just like Etzel, only he doesn't really look so cool. However, I needed a bowman and everything else capable of using a bow had died and I didn't feel like class-swapping anyone else, since they'd have pathetic weapon levels. Turned him into a Horseman for the movement.

Est, level 20/20 (Dragonknight) with Gradius, Javelin, Hand Axe, Silver Lance and Killer Lance. I had originally planned on killing off the Pegasus Sisters (after Paola accidentally died on the same enemy turn as she joined me). I had planned Sheeda to become a Falcon Knight, but since I couldn't get a hold of an Elysian Whip and time was running out, I decided to go with Est. Great choice, maxed strength, skill and speed.

And that was it, I think. I used Doga for a while until he started to lag, used Chiki until I killed her off. Then I tried to revive her with Ohm, but I couldn't use it since I had also killed of Ellis  . Hardin was trained to level 20/0, but I got tired of him, .
