The Golden Gaffe

Learn the best strategies to farm over 100,000 gold per run in Fire Emblem: Awakening's Golden Gaffe DLC map. Easy gold farming guide!

Hey there! So, you've stumbled upon 'The Golden Gaffe,' and let me tell you, this isn't your typical tough-as-nails Fire Emblem map. Think of it more like a gold vending machine! Seriously, the main point here is to just rack up a ton of gold, and it's super easy to do. You can expect to net over 100,000 gold in a single run, which is a massive amount. Just one little heads-up: try not to bring along characters who are really weak against magic, okay?

The setup is pretty straightforward. You've got ten characters to deploy, but there are twelve spots on the map. This means you can't block every single entry point. The best approach is to position your units near the choke points where enemies are trying to get through. From there, you can either block their path or hit them with ranged attacks. Don't worry too much about the enemies attacking you directly; their AI is set up so they'll mostly just try to run past your defenses.

Because the enemies aren't aggressive, you can really focus on controlling their movement. If you're aiming to get the absolute most out of each run, you'll want to interrupt their movement as much as possible, rather than just charging in headfirst. But honestly, even if you don't play it perfectly, you're still going to make a fortune. The best part? You can replay this map as many times as you want!

There's some fun dialogue to check out, but if your main goal is just to get rich quick, you'll probably be running through it more than once. Enjoy the gold rush!
