Cavalier

Learn about the Cavalier class in Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest! Discover its strengths, weaknesses, growth rates, skills, and promotion options like Paladin and Great Knight.

Alright, let's talk about the Cavalier class in Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest. These guys are your classic knights on horseback, wielding swords and lances. They're pretty solid all-around and super useful for getting around the map quickly.

As a Nohrian unit, they're a reliable choice for your army. They've got decent movement, which is key for repositioning your troops or making a quick dash to the front lines. Plus, their ability to use both swords and lances means they can handle a good chunk of the weapon triangle.

Growth Rates:

Stat	Growth Rate
Health	10%
Strength	15%
Magic	0%
Skill	10%
Speed	10%
Luck	15%
Defense	10%
Resistance	5%

As you can see, they're not exactly magic powerhouses, but they've got a bit of everything else. Don't expect them to be your primary damage dealers against magic users, but they can hold their own physically.

Weapons:

• Katana/Swords
• Naginata/Lances

Skills:

• Elbow Room: This skill gives you a nice +3 damage boost when you're fighting on terrain that doesn't have any special effects. So, if you're out in the open, you hit a little harder.
• Shelter: This is a super handy command that lets your Cavalier pair up with another unit, but still be able to attack. It's a lifesaver if you need to pull a weakened ally out of danger or if the RNG gods aren't smiling on you. It lets you protect them while still getting an attack in, which is awesome for last-minute saves.

Promotes to:

• Paladin
• Great Knight

Both of the Cavalier's promotion options are really strong, each bringing their own set of powerful skills. This makes the Cavalier a great unit to invest in early on, as its potential is really high. They're a balanced unit that can really help you control the battlefield and lead the charge effectively.
