Pet Peeves 1

1) Battling on a ship.

Perhaps it's the claustrophobia kicking in, or because I don't trust my pegasus knights enough to fly over water for fear of being bombarded by the enemy. (Curse you, enemy archers.) But I can't move anywhere. I just sit around and wait for the enemy to approach and hope they don't all go after the same person.

I don't care which game it is. I sit there and sweat when the chapter takes place on a ship. Probably my least favorite chapter ever is in PoR when they're fighting off the raven pirates. There aren't even that many of them. But they're everywhere...

2) Bowguns.

When the enemy has them equipped, the damage is crazy. There are few people that can successfully attack someone using a bowgun. And when I have them, they usually suck. What good is using my prized archers close-range with an Mt of, like, nine?

Only once I didn't completely hate the bowgun. I gave Rolf the birdfoe skill (I know, I know, it's a waste on an archer, but I just had to know). Not even kidding, the damage was, like, 49 x2. With a bowgun. It was hysterical.

3) Support converstion failures.

I know certain people can have support conversations. I have them literally following each other around to activate it, and what happens? Not only does the support not kick in, they somehow acquire support with someone who was nowhere near them.

I had Shinon & Rolf buddying up on everything when he returned in PoR. They only got to C support. Gatrie wasn't even near Shinon during any of the battles and they got up to A support. That's not what I wanted. How obnoxious.

The same is happening with Lyn & Kent at the moment. If anyone followed me around as much as Lyn does Kent, I'd be creeped out. So where's their support? I want them to support each other, dammit.
