So once getting any desired skills is there any reason to use Grandmaster over Dread Fighter?? Way I see it it seems Dread Fighters are functionally a slightly better Grandmaster that can also use Axes.

Grandmaster shoulda been given Staves as well if you ask me.

It’s not unreasonable considering potentially any Male character can get Dread Fighter and any Female character Bride.

But not everyone can access Tactician/Grandmaster. In terms of main game units only Robin, Morgan, and any second child Robin could have depending on who you pick for his or her spouse.

Out of everything that can use three kinds of weapons and/or magic not a single class offers a physical weapon alongside magic tomes and staves. And that’s a travesty lol
