Just curious, but why are multiple people claiming Radd is the worst Myrmidon in FE? He has a perfectly acceptable stat and growth distribution for a Myrm, essentially trading some minor speed for some minor strength in comparison with Navarre, and has acceptable availability, showing up before the likes of Linde and the Pegs, at least.
And on the Lucia issue, she's definitely towards the bottom, but I have to say, I'm quite fond of using her in FE10 once in a blue moon, having even taken her to endgame and given her Alondite. Is she a pain to train? Does she objectively suck in comparison to others? Yeah, kinda, but there are three Paragons available, and you can stick her in Tibarn's group so she can get in on the exp-fest that is the chapter 4-5. The selling point? Earth affinity. I paired her up with Zihark and had TWO untouchable Trueblades. I did it just for the sake of doing it though. Zihark and Mia are both miles ahead of her, as is Stefan in a pinch, and even Edward, I suppose.
Also looking forward to a new category, today ;3

And I gave Mia the Alondite, it is so worth it. -w-

Rad just doesn't work for me. Simple as that smile
It was between Karel and Rutger for my best choice - I believe FE6 Karel, for the very short time he is with you, beats out Rutger (but maybe not when Rutger has his hard mode stat bonus). Still, there's the Karel in FE7 to think about too, so...

Best: Fire Dragon. (FE7)
Worst: Fomortiis the Demon King (FE cool
Fire Dragon is at least a bit challenging, especially with the staff users attacking from far away. Fomortiis is just too easy to kill.

Best: FD. Did you expect anything else? ;3 But it all seriousness, he pierces through defense and resistance for enough damage that if you don't have a high enough AS, you're gone in one round. Plus, no matter how high your HP is, he will ALWAYS be able to at LEAST 2HKO (and you can't even attempt to fight it if you don't at least have 37-40 HP depending on the mode) unless you get perpetual healing. 1-3 range with Flametongue is fabulous, too.
Worst: Idoun. One-rounded by SoS on the first turn. Most anticlimatic boss EVER.

Have you ever one-rounded Fomortiis with a single person on the first turn? Because Idoun dies the first turn EVERY TIME.

I myself usually like to let the mamkutes pile into the room and then take them on with all my characters and avoid killing Idoun with Roy until she's softened up so that it's more fun.

Best: FD, naturally. After the wonderfully exhausting mental exercise Nergal puts you through in battling all of those morph bosses, not getting berserked by the Druid, and then facing Nergal himself, the game throws a dragon at you. Well, three, but two of them are taken care of by the dancer, so one measly dragon shouldn't be too much, right? Wrong. Nevertheless, it's quite a fun battle (plus hey, it's a DRAGON!) and I do like testing myself (and thus my units) and see who else can hurt FD--I've even killed him with Nino before! The appearance and subsequent fight of and with the FD is probably one of the more nerve-wracking fights in the game, depending on your levels. I personally enjoy it, and thus I name FD as the best final (final-final) boss.
Worst: Idoun. Really now, if you're getting one-shotted by Roy. . . . Although continuing on with the story past Zephiel's defeat is interesting, if only because you get a lot of information on the Scouring itself and some of the events surrounding it. But once you get to the final boss, so long as you have the SoS . . . such a pathetic fight. I expected more of a final boss, especially one who can create the dragons that plague you throughout the course of the game. And one would think a divine dragon (even a fallen/former one) would mean a difficult fight. This battle is either a testimony to just how powerful the weapons like the Swords of Seals, Durandal, Armands, etc. are (even after their powers have waned over the past thousand years), just how weak Idoun is, or both.

Best: FD. If this was a round for 'Best Boss Chapter' though, he would not get my vote. Instead, my vote would go to FE10 part 4, which so far is the only endgame that I have enjoyed so much as to make advanced formations for. Unlike the FD battle where I just place people out of his and the staff users range and then use people to rescue the few people that can actually hurt him decently, every unit in the Ashera battle had a role to play whether it was healing duty, magical spirit elimination, magic barrier destruction, etc. And the annoying fact that you have to kill her with Ike proves to add an extra challenge to the chapter. But on the other hand, that annoying fact also serves to lower her on the Best Boss ranking. I'd also expect a goddess to be more powerful than she was, but maybe she just wasn't 'woken up enough yet'. Sleepy-head boss. :'|
Worst: Idoun. Fortimous is a close second. I hated everything that Fortimous stood for, and not in the way you're supposed to. Oooooo, scaaaary demon king, yeahno. :'| If you were wondering how cheesy the game could get, look no further. And if you are expecting him to be powerful because he's an apparent 'king', then think again, because while he probably won't be 1hkod like Idoun, he'll probably still be dead in the first or second turn. He's still technically better than Idoun, though...
...I ranted on stuff that didn't have anything to do with who I voted for, mainly because people have already pretty much covered them.

Best: Ashnard. For me, it's really tough to choose between him and FD, since FD is more of a team effort, while Ashnard is gonna be taken down by Ike, a royal, and a dragon if you're feeling cheeky. I was really set on saying FD, when I realized that, well, Ashnard was just more fun for me. While FD can be taken down in different ways depending on who you used that game, he is a stationary boss. You just have wail on him with the right people (for me, usually involving Canas and Athos at some point). While you can take down Ashnard with Ike alone, it takes longer for me to do so then to beat FD. Ashnard moves. So while the characters themselves are set, the fun comes from moving people around at fight him, and taking extra care that no one gets slaughtered. Not to mention he springs back from the dead on hard mode begging for more. Awesome.
Worst: Formortiis. I'll give Idoun a proper kick in the face when I get there, but the fact that no one complains if you DON'T beat her makes the ordeal smell of extra, 'cause it is. The Demon King is more in your face, and for me more disappointing.
