Resolve is a skill introduced in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance.

Overview[]

In Path of Radiance, this skill increases the Strength, Speed, and Skill by 50% when its user has less than half of their maximum HP remaining. As Resolve is capable of positively affecting important stats such as Strength and Speed by a large extent, it is thus considered to be one of the best skills available in the game.

In Radiant Dawn, this skill increases Speed and Skill by 50% when its user has less than half of his or her maximum HP remaining. Interestingly, the English in-game description of the skill claims that it raises Strength, Skill, and Speed by 150% ("raise by one and a half times") when the unit has 20% or less of his or her HP. This is possibly due to a mistranslation. While this skill may not be as versatile as it is in Path of Radiance, it is still rather useful in boosting the statistics of certain weak characters.

In Fire Emblem Engage, Resolve is a Sync Skill unique to Emblem Ike. A unit can inherit the skill for use permanently if they develop their bond levels with Ike and then spend SP to acquire it. In Engage, Resolve is a more defensive skill than it was in the past, increasing the user's Defense and Resistance when their HP is equal to or below 75%. The amount of Defense and Resistance granted increases based on the tier of the skill.

Trivia[]

  • In the Japanese and US versions of Radiant Dawn, Resolve's descriptions erroneously claim that it increases strength as it did in Path of Radiance; additionally, the US version erroneously claims Resolve activates when the unit has 20% or less of its HP, which is only true for the Japanese version. These were corrected in the European releases.
