Learn about the Mechanist class in Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright, including its stats, growth rates, skills like Golembane and Replicate, and effective strategies for using this unique unit.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The Mechanist class excels with shuriken/daggers and yumi/bows.
  2. 2
    Their stat growth rates are: Health 10%, Strength 10%, Magic 0%, Skill 15%, Speed 10%, Luck 5%, Defense 5%, Resistance 15%.
  3. 3
    Key skills include Golembane, which makes attackers super effective against Mechanists, Automatons, and Stoneborn, and Replicate, which creates a battlefield replica of the unit.
  4. 4
    Replicas act independently but share HP, items, and stat buffs/debuffs with the original unit.
  5. 5
    If a replica or the original unit dies, the other also dies.
  6. 6
    Damage and healing are shared between the original and replica.
  7. 7
    Replicate can be used to bypass the limit on the number of units deployable in battle.
  8. 8
    Mechanists are slower but bulkier than Ninjas and can use bows, which are super effective against flyers.
  9. 9
    Golembane is situational due to the rarity of Automatons and Stoneborn.
Tips
  • The Replicate skill is highly recommended for reclassing.
  • Ensure multiple units learn the Replicate skill for strategic advantage.
  • Play carefully when using replicas due to shared HP and the risk of instant death for both units.
