Choosing a good squad in Valkyria Chronicles is important to having successful A rank missions. Below is a list of all the classes showing the best, average, and poor members of each class. You should try to get at least 2 members from the “best” category for each class when making your squad. Snipers aren’t really that important(even though Marina is awesome). Follow the video as an example of how to pick your squad. -K0opa

*Note - your choices and the ones in the video will most likely be different because the members you can select from are given at random after chapter 2’s mission is complete*

Tank Operators:

Welkin (likes Alicia, Juno, Audrey): Nature Lover, Calm Heart, Sibling Ties,
Power of Love.
Nature Lover: Being around nature makes his heart soar, bringing about a boost
in his abilities.
Calm Heart: Unshaken even when surrounded by foes, he remains calmly in
command, enjoying a boost in his parameters.
Sibling Ties: Whenever Darcsens are nearby, his thoughts drift to his sister,
Isara, and his abilities are enhanced.
Power of Love: Any time Alicia is at his side, he is filled with the warmth of
their love, boosting his abilities.

Welkin’s unique potentials seem to activate almost 100% of the time the
conditions are met. Placing him next to Alicia and a Darcsen gives him a huge
stat boost.

Zaka (likes Lynn, Wavy, Nadine): Metal Head, Good Buddy, Born Leader, Darcsen
Pride. Darcsen Pride: Pride in fighting alongside his Darcsen brethren drives
up his attack parameters when they’re nearby.


Best Scouts:

Alicia (likes Welkin, Noce, Dallas): Country Bred, Maternal, Mysterious Body,
Valkyria. Undodgeable Shot, Resist Crossfire, Double Movement.
Maternal: When any of her close friends are nearby, the desire to protect them
drives all of her abilities up.
Mysterious Body: Always a fast healer for some reason, she occasionally
notices that she’s completely recovered from injury.
Valkyria: The awesome power of the Valkyrur awakens within her when her HP
falls below half-full.

Alicia is the games best scouts for surviving interception fire and covering
long distances. She has the most HP of any scout.

Aika (likes Vyse, Yoko, Dallas): Pollen Allergy, Good Buddy, Runner’s High.
Stealth, Nocturnal, Resist Crossfire, Double Movement. Runner’s High: Having
less than half-full AP brings them an adrenaline rush that leads to increased
defense.

Aika has high HP and good interception fire/runner potentials, although not
quite as good as Alicia.

Noce (likes Alicia, Homer): Country Bred, Camaraderie, Bad Back, Welkin
Hater. Sighting, First Aid Boost, Super Evasion, Concentration. Welkin
Hater: Having Welkin around is a drag, causing a drop in firing accuracy.

Noce has fairly high HP and his Sighting potential activations all the time,
usually several times in a row before you’ve even gotten to what you want to
shoot at - it activations off just about anything, even enemies he just
spotted a second ago. Combined with Concentration he is the best scout at
making long range attacks with high accuracy.

Melville (likes Alex, Nina, Ted): Desert Allergy, Chatty Cathy, Trooper
Killer, Energetic. Evasion Boost, First Aid Boost, Third Eye, Double
Movement. Energetic: Having full HP leaves them full of pep and ready to go,
including enhanced evasion abilities.

Melvilles potentials aren’t amazing, but he has very high HP, making him a
good choice during the main campaign where potentials aren’t as important as
survivability.

Mussad (likes Coby, Nina): Child of Nature, Good Buddy, Bug in a Rug,
Bloodthirsty. Undodgeable Shot, Power Scout, Third Eye, Ultimate Evade.
Recruited by completing the main game once. Bloodthirsty: Their natural
aggression gives them a chance of attacking twice in a row.

Mussad is the best combat oriented scout - Power Scout seems to activate all
the time and gives him a significant damage boost compared to other scouts.
Bloodthirsty is great but seems to activate very rarely, so it shouldn’t be
counted on.

Stonewall: Crouching down puts them in full-on guard mode, leading to improved
defensive abilities.

Freesia (likes Salinas, Walter, Emile): Desert Bred, Fancies Men, Under
Pressure. Evasion Boost, Nocturnal, Resist Crossfire, Concentration. Under
Pressure: Being the very last to take action gives them a crushing sense of
pressure that hinders accuracy.

Ramona (likes Edy, Cherry, Audrey): Neat Freak, Chatty Cathy, Chameleon.
Undodgeable Shot, Nocturnal, Resist Crossfire, Ultimate Evade. Chameleon:
When hidden from view, they can remain calm, cool and collected, leading to
increased defense.

Montley (likes Nancy, Jann, Herbert): Meadow Bred, Aichmophobic, Impatient.
Evasion Boost, Skilled Assassin, Third Eye, Full HP Recover.
Aichmophobic: Deathly afraid of pointed objects, being around lancers’ weapons

in defensive abilities.

ability.

Humanitarian. Sighting, First Aid Boost, Super Evasion, Full HP Recovery.
Trooper Hater: For whatever reason, Shocktroopers aren’t their thing. Attack

anything.


Best Shocktroopers:

Lover. First Aid Boost, Undodgeable Shot, Super Damage, Double Attack.
Challenge Lover: Charging into the face of enemy fire creates a rush of
adrenaline that enhances attack power.

Rosie (likes Largo, Cherry): Desert Allergy, Strong-Willed, Big Sister, Song
of Peace. Undercover Fire, Undodgeable Shot, Dud Mine, Double Attack.

Dash: Firing accuracy is boosted during the first three turns of the operation.

While Aisha is burdened with Panicky and Lonely, her Ultimate Damage makes up

possible. Starting Dash unfortunately doesn’t seem to activate very often.

What’s up guys Squall here, how have you guys been liking the reviews from FiveByFive? Amazing work right? But enough about him, let’s talk about why I’m here.

 I’m mainly here to drop off a preview for my upcoming Combo Video named “Tag Out” as you guys read in the title there will be 3 Volumes of this combo video first off is Vol 1, which will be Tekken Tag Tournament 2 only below is the preview. I plan to release this at the end of the month.

Next is Vol 2. Volume 2 will have both Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and Street Fighter X Tekken, the preview is already done, however this video will not be releasing until next month I have yet to decided on what date exactly I’ll release it on.

Lastly is Vol 3. This volume will be the only volume that will feature Tag 1, Tag 2 and SFxTK however it will also be a community video which I hope everyone will be willing to take part in.

The details on this one has not yet been decided due to the fact these 3 won’t be the only cmv’s I’m doing and with all the events we have planned (details will be given at a later) for the end of the year I’m quite busy especially with college and my job.

However I can for sure tell you guys we will have our own GOTY event, a night where you the readers of our blog and subs of our channel can get a chance to play with us in various games one night it may be Call Of Duty Black Ops II and another Tekken Tag 2. There will be much more things we will do to close out 2012 and get ready for 2013. 

So allow me to be the first to say thank you all for everything you have done even if you just looked at a single blog post or a single video, you taking the time out of your life to watch or read any content of ours means a lot, it let’s us know that there are in fact some people interested in what we put up and shows us that our hard work is not going unnoticed. Thank you everyone.

What’s up everyone SquallNoctis here first to drop off the Playlist for Combos For Dummies, I want to thank everyone who’s been watching and I really hope to not only cover more characters but more fighters.

Secondly I want to tell you guys my main goal for this series. The first one being is to give back to the Fighting Game Community, I sat and thought seriously on how exactly can I contribute to this community and hopefully this will be a good start, secondly I want to bring more new players into fighters by teaching them how to combo in these fighting games while showing them the button layout of the game (hence why I added that picture in the second episode). 

Hopefully I can meet these two goals, and I aim to provide more ways to contribute while helping new players if I find the opportunity to do so. Again thank you all for watching the first episode hope you guys enjoy episode 2 and episode 3, tune into the channel for episode 4 Tuesday. 

What’s up guys SquallNoctis here and today me and the rest of the members of GUX channel decided to start our very own “How To” series in this series we’ll cover secret items, boss battles, fighting game combos and many more. 

I really hope you guys like this new series we started and also in regards to KYS I know its been awhile but we haven’t dropped it completely currently we’re trying to find ways to make the episodes much better than what they are now.

Finally here’s the first video of this how to series we created and its called “Combos For Dummies” the main goal of this is to teach people how to do combos starting with simple basic BnB’s to more damaging advanced combos. The first video is on Street Fighter X Tekken very own classy boxer, Dudley.
