Learn all of Petra's unique and learnable abilities in fire emblem warriors three hopes, including Windstorm, Hunter's Boon, and class-specific arts.
Petra's unique abilities are always equipped and cannot be changed. Her Action Ability, Windstorm, affects evasion distance and adds minor wind damage to dodges, with Lv 3 greatly increasing evasion distance. Her Support Ability, Hunter’s Boon, restores the Awakening Gauge with each critical hit, with Lv 3 restoring it greatly. Her Tactical Ability, Outland Technique, increases damage dealt when ordered to attack, with Lv 3 providing a 50% increase.
You can learn additional abilities and arts by ranking up classes. Once learned, you can equip up to 2 arts and 4 abilities, or up to 10 abilities after upgrading the Tactics Academy. Learning multiple of the same Prowess ability will combine them into a stronger version (e.g., Sword Prowess Lv 1 + Sword Prowess Lv 1 = Sword Prowess Lv 2).
