Learn how to build support ranks in Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation, from C to S, and unlock powerful battlefield bonuses, unique conversations, and even children units.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Characters gain support points when fighting adjacently or paired on the battlefield.
  2. 2
    Support points are a hidden value that increases as characters interact.
  3. 3
    Hearts will appear on screen to indicate that support points are being gained.
  4. 4
    Outside of battle, use the 'Support' option in the menu to trigger new conversations between characters.
  5. 5
    These conversations provide character insights and increase support ranks.
  6. 6
    Support ranks start at 'C' and can go up to 'A', 'A+', or 'S'.
  7. 7
    Support points can also be gained very slowly through various MyCastle events.
  8. 8
    Reaching 'A' rank support between non-Avatar characters provides greater battlefield benefits when paired.
  9. 9
    Reaching 'S' rank allows two characters to marry, unlocking a Paralogue with their child unit and granting access to the spouse's classes via the Partner Seal.
  10. 10
    Two characters of the same gender can reach 'A+' rank, a platonic version of 'S' rank.
  11. 11
    'A+' rank support is a one-way selection: if Character A reaches 'A+' with Character B, Character A gains a class from Character B, but Character B does not gain a class from Character A unless they also reach 'A+' with Character A.
  12. 12
    The Avatar character cannot 'A+' support with anyone.
  13. 13
    The Avatar can gain classes from any character of the same gender they reach 'A' rank with, using the Friendship Seal.
  14. 14
    Reach 'A' rank with all comrades to fill out the Support Log and gain all possible class benefits for the Avatar.
Tips
  • Encourage characters to fight next to each other or in a pair to maximize support gain.
  • Engage in all available Support conversations to deepen character relationships and unlock benefits faster.
  • Consider who you want to marry for the S-Rank benefits, especially the unlockable child units.
  • For same-gender pairings aiming for A+ rank, be mindful of the one-way class inheritance.
  • Utilize the Avatar's ability to gain classes from any 'A' ranked ally of the same gender to diversify your team's class options.
