Gambit is a Sync Skill in Fire Emblem Engage. It can be used when a character has equipped the Bracelet of the Three Houses.

Overview

Gambit is a Sync Skill unique to Emblem Edelgard, Dimitri, and Claude that allow the user to use Gambits during combat. The gambit currently available to the user is dependent on which of the three House Leaders the user is currently synced with, which are as follows:

• Edelgard's Flame Gambit: Use when synced with Edelgard to attack a foe, then set the target foe’s space and nearby spaces on fire.
• Dimitri's Shield Gambit: Use when synced with Dimitri to negate damage from first attacks of ranged foes targeting unit in next enemy phase.
• Claude's Poison Gambit: Use when synced with Claude to attack a foe, then poison target and all foes adjacent to it after combat.
