Changes: Firestone

Revision as of 15:23, 10 March 2019

“A stone used to transform into a fire dragon.”
—In-game description, Shadow Dragon and Shin Monshō

The Firestone (火竜石 Karyūseki, lit. Fire Dragon Stone) is a Dragonstone that recurs across the Fire Emblem Series. Functioning as the most basic Dragonstone principally employed by units aligned to the Manakete class, the Firestone is infused with the compressed power of a Fire Dragon. When used, this stone allows a Manakete to assume the form of a Fire Dragon, granting them numerous statistical bonuses that enable them to engage in combat in the process.

In Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light, the only playable Manakete who can harness the energy contained within the Firestone is Bantu. The Firestone has infinite durability in this appearance. In its subsequent remakes, this lock is lifted, permitting any Manakete to employ them for combat purposes.

In The Binding Blade, the Firestone is an enemy-only weapon, and cannot be obtained under ordinary circumstances. If the player succeeds in acquiring one through the method outlined below, then they will find that it can be used by Fae, although the animations involved are hilariously glitchy.

Notably, in almost every game that the Firestone appears in, it is treated as a weapon. The exception to this rule is Mystery of the Emblem, where the stone is instead regarded as an item.

Glitch Exploitation

Ch. 23 - The steps required to activate the glitch are as follows:

• Deploy a Thief character and ensure that their Speed is higher than that of the Manaketes in the chapter.
• Move the Thief within 6 spaces of the Manakete from which the Firestone is to be stolen from. Also ensure that they are within the range of the Druid wielding the Berserk. It is recommended to make sure that the Manakete is the only enemy unit within range of the Thief, and if possible, to cast the Sleep status on it.
• Let the Thief be berserked on the next turn.
• If all goes well, the Thief should proceed to steal the Firestone from the Manakete. Complete the manoeuvre by restoring their condition and passing the stone to Fae.
