Overview[]
Enlightened One is a capable sword fighter that can provide great support to adjacent allies. Due to having access to magic they are able to heal ally units and back off from enemies and take them out it range if need be. In addition, their ability to wield every type of weapon in the game (skill level notwithstanding), makes them extremely versatile and adaptable. Swordfaire complements Byleth's newly-enhanced Sword of the Creator perfectly, and when White Tomefaire is combined with Nosferatu and White Magic Avoid +20, learned by unlocking Byleth's Budding Talent in Faith, it makes them an effective defensive fighter. The Enlightened One's mastery skill Sacred Power also provides buffs to damage dealt and withstood to anyone who's near them, additionally this can be stacked with Byleth's personal skill, Professor's Guidance, to earn extra Exp.
