Speed (stat)

Speed is a stat that usually affects the number of strikes a character can make. It can also affect the evasion ability of a character.

It is known that, at least since Sword of Seals, that Speedwings can be used to raise the speed of a character by two points.

Mechanics of Speed
This section is split under two sub-sections: GBA and 3-D Fire Emblem games.

GBA games
Attack speed is calculated as follows:

Character's speed minus (Weapon Weight minus User's Con - only applies if this result is greater than zero)

Evasion is affected by Speed X 2 + Luck - (Weapon Weight - User's Con, only if greater than zero)X 2 + support bonus

3-D games
Attack speed is calculated as follows:

Character's speed minus (Weapon Weight minus User's Strength - only applies if this result is greater than zero)

Evasion is affected by Speed X 2 + Luck - (Weapon Weight - User's Strength, only if greater than zero)X 2 + support bonus
