Serenes Forest claims (with a "not thoroughly tested" disclaimer) that the slowest supports will actually progress backwards a little when units shove eachother, so make of that what you will.Ģ) Being next to (not near) eachother. When supported units shove eachother, they gain a few support points. There are five actions that influence support points.ġ) Shoving. The characters don't gain points their relationship does. The support point value is shared between the two characters in the relationship. There are exceptions, and some relationships are open to interpretation as to friendship, but you can usually hazard a guess. There are five distinct speeds, and they're distributed in what's actually the way you might expect it logically to be characters who really like eachother tend to progress faster and characters who don't will progress slower. What the game doesn't tell you is that every individual character relationship has a defined rate at which its "support points" grow. For an A-Rank support, add triple.īut! What's a little more complicated is the mechanics of how the game defines "fought together enough". For example, we've already seen Edward and Nolan's support Def +0.5, Hit +2.5 (light), Avoid +7.5 (earth).įor a B-Rank support, add double the bonuses. Both characters get both bonuses, and bonuses to the same stats stack. Every affinity has its own set of benefits that it contributes to a support relationship:įor a basic (C-Rank) support, simply take the bonuses associated with the affinities of each character and add them together, and round the results appropriately to the nearest integer. Remember Affinities? They've been mentioned in passing a few times before this point.Įvery character has their own affinity (it can't be changed). The actual mechanics of how support bonuses are calculated are pretty simple. The rest is unchanged two characters who have a support relationship with eachother will receive bonuses to certain stats when standing within 3 map squares of eachother. The actual method of establishing supports is a little different in Radiant Dawn compared to previous Fire Emblems you can pair anyone with anyone as long as they've fought together enough, and you can erase a support and start a new one at any time, and the process is no longer associated with an arc of bonding conversations.
