\\\"His problem is that he has fewer levels to reach those caps, meaning with training, Franz, Forde, Amelia, and Kyle, will USUALLY, not always, be better, and with the training options so readily available in Sacred Stones, it can be worth it to train those characters.\\\"

-No, it isn\\\'t. Seth is highly durable (doesn\\\'t die except to ridiculous stuff like Lyon or Gorgons or Dracozombies), 1-rounds everything except some of the faster enemies in Chapter 19 (a chapter that is beatable in two turns). The slightly better speed that Franz/Forde/Amelia develop is not \\\"worth it\\\".

\\\"I also wouldn\\\'t say that he\\\'s WORSHIPED by the fandom. Game FAQS is a terrible example to use, because they\\\'re mostly, mostly, stat snobs who care about the best characters.\\\"

-1)It\\\'s hardly just GameFaqs that thinks Seth is godly. Have you ever been on most FE fansites, hmm?
2)Like Seth.

\\\"Many would agree that Seth should be benched, but you know Your Millage May Vary. I\\\'m not sure it\\\'s really reasonable to keep it the way it is. To me it seems to be a YMMV entry.\\\"

-You\\\'re right; whether being able to solo most of the game is \\\"broken\\\" is something that\\\'s a matter of personal opinion.

\\\"My point is, I\\\'m not going to engage in an edit war. I think that it might be better if the entry is moved. He\\\'s not really a Game Breaker. If you HAVE to classify it, he\\\'s more of a Disc One Nuke.\\\"

From the Disc One Nuke page:

\\\"Distinct from a Game Breaker in that it\\\'s usually not enough to carry you through the entire game.\\\"

-Seth can carry you through the entire game and only needs support against wtfLyon and against wtfGorgons in Chapter 18.

The fandom is far past the point where we judge based on 20/20 stats; we\\\'ve long since gotten it through our heads that not everyone is going to hit 20/20 and that it\\\'s far more meaningful to judge based on how characters perform before they hit 20/20. If you really want to talk about this, why not go to, say, Serenes Forest or something?
