Learn how to beat the tough Champions of Yore 3 DLC in Fire Emblem: Awakening. Get tips on unit placement, enemy weaknesses, and the best strategies to earn the All Stats +2 tome.

Alright, let's tackle Champions of Yore 3! This DLC mission is a real test, basically throwing the first two Champions of Yore challenges at you simultaneously. You're caught between two powerful enemy forces, covering every type of unit. It's tough, but we'll get through it together!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Unit Placement is Key: The first thing you need to do is arrange your units wisely. Think of it like creating two solid squads: one for the high ground and one for the low.
  2. 2
    Right Side First: The right side of the map tends to be more aggressive. It's a good idea to send your sturdiest, most defensive units that way to establish a strong front.
  3. 3
    Pacing the Assault: Don't rush in with both teams at once! If speed isn't your main goal, it can be really beneficial to hold your left-side squad back a bit. This way, you won't have both your groups locked in combat simultaneously.
  4. 4
    Reinforce and Advance: Once your right-side team is making good progress or has dealt with the initial threats, you can then use your left-side units to provide support to the upper attack. After that, you can push forward on the left flank.
  5. 5
    Danger Zone is Your Friend: To help with all this strategic positioning, don't forget to use the 'Danger Zone' viewer. It'll show you the enemy's attack range, so you can plan your moves without any nasty surprises.
  6. 6
    Magic Defense on the Left: If your defensive lines are starting to struggle, especially on the left, pay attention to unit resistances. You'll want to send units with high magical resistance to the bottom left.
  7. 7
    Micaiah's Threat: The enemy Dark Mage, Micaiah, is a particularly dangerous opponent. Anyone with low magical defenses, like Frederick for example, should probably steer clear of her.
  8. 8
    Aerial Superiority: Keep an eye out for any Pegasus Knights trying to flank your lines. Taking your own aerial units to counter them can be a smart move to protect your flanks.
Tips
  • The boss, Ike, is a Level 15 Mercenary and wields the powerful Ragnell. He doesn't move, so you can plan your approach.
  • Micaiah, a Level 12 Dark Mage, is a new unit you can recruit at the end of the mission. Be mindful of her magical attacks!
  • The 'All Stats +2' tome is a fantastic reward for completing this challenging map.
  • Remember to use the 'Danger Zone' viewer to avoid getting caught off guard by enemy attacks.
  • Completing this quest will reward you with a tome of All Stats +2.
