Of the six Mercenary- and [[Hero]]-class party members in {{title|Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light}}, Radd has the strongest growth rates, but gets off to arguably the weakest start. His low base stat values in HP and Strength hurt him, but high growths in both stats make it likely that these weaknesses will abate if Radd is given the chance to level up. [[Ogma]], [[Navarre]], and [[Astram]] remain superior infantry swordfighter options overall, but Radd is fully capable of catching up if the player sees fit to invest in him.

Radd joins alongside another Mercenary, [[Caesar]]. Although he holds low bases, his growth rates are fairly high compared to some other members of the cast, notably his 70% growth in Speed, meaning it is highly likely Radd will get a point of speed upon most level ups. In Radd's joining chapter, there is an Arena, meaning that if the player chooses, Radd can be used in the Arena for gold and experience, his high speed meaning that he will double most enemies in the arena. This is especially beneficial for Radd, as his weapon level is only one below being able to equip the [[Killing Edge]], and he has a fairly high Weapon Level growth of 50%, meaning Radd will likely be able to use the weapon after only a few level ups. This combined with the shop in this chapter selling the Killing Edge means that Radd can easily use these to cover for his fairly low luck, starting at 1 and only having a 40% growth. That being said, [[Ogma]], [[Navarre]], and [[Caesar]] will frequently make a better Mercenary, although if the player chooses to, Radd can be a fairly decent unit, who will double most enemies throughout Book 1 with his high speed.

===Analysis===
===Analysis===
{{Analysis}}
{{<span class="error">Expansion depth limit exceeded</span>}}
In {{title|Shadow Dragon}}, Radd fares significantly worse than in the original, being one of the weakest characters in the game. He has subpar base stats, a poor weapon type, and faces heavy competition from Abel, Cain, Hardin, and Frey for any potential spot he could fill by reclassing. Even if he opts to stay a Myrmidon, Navarre joins five chapters earlier with higher base stats across the board, and a higher sword rank that enables him to use the Killing Edge to bypass his low Strength. His growths are only average at best, and the effort required to raise him to any level of self-sufficiency far outweighs the payoff for doing so. As the investment required for Radd to catch up with other characters is unlikely to be worthwhile by any objective metric, he is best left on the bench by those seeking to play optimally.

Radd (Japanese: {{Expansion depth limit exceeded|ラディ|Radi}} Radei) is a mercenary in the service of Port Warren alongside his good friend Caesar. He assisted Prince Marth of Altea by fighting for his army during the War of Shadows and War of Heroes.

{{Expansion depth limit exceeded}}

Role

Radd joins the Archanean League with Caesar during their battle at Port Warren.

  • In Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light, promotion gains consist on giving the character as many points as necessary -the "x" value shown in the table- to reach the promoted class' base stats. If the character's stats are higher than their promoted class' base stats, they will not receive any bonus.

Analysis

{{Expansion depth limit exceeded}} Of the six Mercenary- and Hero-class party members in {{Expansion depth limit exceeded|Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light}}, Radd has the strongest growth rates, but gets off to arguably the weakest start. His low base stat values in HP and Strength hurt him, but high growths in both stats make it likely that these weaknesses will abate if Radd is given the chance to level up. Ogma, Navarre, and Astram remain superior infantry swordfighter options overall, but Radd is fully capable of catching up if the player sees fit to invest in him.

Book 1

Role

Radd joins the Archanean League with Caesar during their battle at Port Warren.

Starting stats and growth rates

{{Expansion depth limit exceeded|portrait=Portrait radd fe03.png |sprite=mercenary |class=Mercenary |lv=1 |HP=18 |str=4 |skill=8 |spd=10 |luck=1 |def=6 |res=0 |wl=6 |move=7 |weapons={{Expansion depth limit exceeded|3|Iron Sword}} |sw=y |HP1=90 |str1=50 |skill1=40 |wl1=50 |spd1=70 |luck1=40 |def1=20 |res1=3 |recruit=Chapter 7, automatically from turn 1 }}

{{Expansion depth limit exceeded|Mercenary|Hero}}

Analysis

{{Expansion depth limit exceeded}} Radd joins alongside another Mercenary, Caesar. Although he holds low bases, his growth rates are fairly high compared to some other members of the cast, notably his 70% growth in Speed, meaning it is highly likely Radd will get a point of speed upon most level ups. In Radd's joining chapter, there is an Arena, meaning that if the player chooses, Radd can be used in the Arena for gold and experience, his high speed meaning that he will double most enemies in the arena. This is especially beneficial for Radd, as his weapon level is only one below being able to equip the Killing Edge, and he has a fairly high Weapon Level growth of 50%, meaning Radd will likely be able to use the weapon after only a few level ups. This combined with the shop in this chapter selling the Killing Edge means that Radd can easily use these to cover for his fairly low luck, starting at 1 and only having a 40% growth. That being said, Ogma, Navarre, and Caesar will frequently make a better Mercenary, although if the player chooses to, Radd can be a fairly decent unit, who will double most enemies throughout Book 1 with his high speed.

Analysis

{{Expansion depth limit exceeded}} In {{Expansion depth limit exceeded|Shadow Dragon}}, Radd fares significantly worse than in the original, being one of the weakest characters in the game. He has subpar base stats, a poor weapon type, and faces heavy competition from Abel, Cain, Hardin, and Frey for any potential spot he could fill by reclassing. Even if he opts to stay a Myrmidon, Navarre joins five chapters earlier with higher base stats across the board, and a higher sword rank that enables him to use the Killing Edge to bypass his low Strength. His growths are only average at best, and the effort required to raise him to any level of self-sufficiency far outweighs the payoff for doing so. As the investment required for Radd to catch up with other characters is unlikely to be worthwhile by any objective metric, he is best left on the bench by those seeking to play optimally.
