Shigure

Learn about Azura's son, Shigure, in Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright. Discover his stats, growth rates, classes, and how to build him effectively.

Hey there! So you're curious about Shigure, Azura's son, in Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright? He's a pretty interesting kid, raised in the Deeprealms. He's got a beautiful singing voice like his mom, loves to draw, and while he's generally mild and kind, he can get a bit temperamental. Oh, and he really likes heights!

Let's break down his stats and how he plays. He's got some decent growth rates, though a few are a bit on the lower side:

Stat Growth Rates:

• Health: 35%
• Strength: 45%
• Magic: 5%
• Skill: 45%
• Speed: 35%
• Luck: 25%
• Defense: 35%
• Resistance: 25%

Now, about his classes. His primary class is Sky Knight, and his secondary is Troubadour. A common question is whether he can become a Songstress, and unfortunately, no, he can't. Songstress is a class exclusive to female units.

When it comes to building Shigure, he's often compared to Subaki. He's got a good balance of tankiness and strength, but he's not the fastest unit out of the box. To help with his speed, picking a father with good speed growth rates is a solid move. Overall, Shigure is a really well-rounded unit. His secondary Troubadour class might seem a bit odd, but as a Sky Knight, especially with skills passed down from his parents, he can become a fantastic Kinshi Knight or a strong offensive Falcon Knight. The best part? He doesn't suffer from the low health growth rates that his mother, Azura, does, which is a definite plus!
