When deciding which Emblem Ring to pair with a character, it’s essential to look at what synergies that Emblem provides for your Unit. Ideally, you’ll either want to buff their strengths or improve upon their weaknesses.

If your Unit of choice lacks good movement, you may want to pair them with Sigurd. Perhaps your Unit is highly vulnerable to archers and could benefit from Edelgard’s Bow Guard Skill. Look carefully at the Skills offered by each Emblem and pair them with how you personally use your Units.

Weapon Weaknesses can also be countered by choosing specific Emblems. For example, if a Sword user is struggling on a Chapter against Lance units, you should pair them with an Emblem that allows them to utilize Axes.

If you’re playing Fire Emblem Engage on Classic mode, you will find Roy useful for weaker Units (or the character you plan to marry). His Hold Out Skill allows a Unit to avoid death as long as they are above at least 2 HP, allowing you to heal up and get to safety.

Tiki is fantastic for leveling up Units, as her Synchro Skill increases stat growth. Remember, you can always change the Emblem Ring a Unit holds at any time before entering a battle.

Fire Emblem Engage is available now, exclusively on Nintendo Switch.
