Cavalier: Basic Classes 2

Master the Cavalier class in Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation! Learn growth rates, skills like Elbow Room & Shelter, and promotion options to dominate the battlefield.

Alright, let's talk about the Cavalier in Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation! These guys are your classic knights on horseback, and they're super versatile. They can use both swords and lances, which is awesome for dealing with pretty much anything the weapon triangle throws at you. They're Nohrian, so they're a solid choice for your army.

Here's a look at their stat growth rates. Keep in mind these are what you can expect on average when they level up:

Stat	Growth Rate
Health	10%
Strength	15%
Magic	0%
Skill	10%
Speed	10%
Luck	15%
Defense	10%
Resistance	5%

As you can see, they're not exactly magic powerhouses, but they've got decent Strength and a good mix of other stats. Their real strength lies in their movement and flexibility.

When it comes to weapons, they're equipped with:

Weapons
Katana/Swords, Naginata/Lances

And check out their unique skills:

Skill	Effect
Elbow Room	When the user fights in terrain with no additional effect, damage increased by +3 points
Shelter	Grants use of the command “Shelter” to pair up with a unit while still being in attack stance

Elbow Room is nice for when you're fighting on open ground, giving you a little damage boost. But Shelter? That's the real game-changer. It lets your Cavalier pick up a weakened ally, even if they've already moved, and still be ready to fight. This is a lifesaver if you mess up a move or if the RNG gods aren't smiling on you – you can save a unit from certain doom!

When your Cavalier is ready to advance, they can promote into one of two classes:

• Paladin
• Great Knight

Both of these promotions are fantastic, giving them even more power and access to new skills. The Cavalier's high movement is perfect for getting around the map quickly, whether you're rushing the enemy or repositioning your troops. They're a solid, balanced unit that can really help you control the flow of battle.
