===Analysis===
{{analysis}}
Darros is the only playable member of the [[Pirate]] class, which is unique in that it can walk over water terrain, allowing Darros to gain avoid bonuses when attacking on that terrain and traverse certain maps faster than other units; however, flying units can already traverse the terrain faster, and the avoid bonus is a decent benefit but not a huge strength. Statistically, he joins with a [[speed]] of 7, which is decent in the early-game but his 10% growth make it very hard to have a decent speed stat long-term. His base [[strength]] of 6 and 50% growth are both fairly solid, and his [[weapon level]] is high enough to use every axe, including strong weapons like the [[Devil Axe]] and [[Hammer]]. His base [[defense]] of 5 is not great, but his 40% growth is one of the best [[defense]] growths in the game and can bring his defense up to a decent point. Unfortunately, his [[skill (stat)|skill]] is terrible, with a base of 2 and growth of 0%, meaning he will have terrible accuracy for the entire duration of the game. Additionally, his [[movement]] of 6 is fairly bad, and his ability to traverse more terrain doesn't really make up for it. Also, his lack of [[promotion]] deprives him of potentially useful stat boosts. His best attribute is his availability, as he joins in [[The Pirates of Galder|Chapter&nbsp;2]], meaning even though he is an overall mediocre unit, he can contribute for almost the entirety of the game and is worth deploying in the early chapters when you haven't recruited enough good units yet. However, in the long-term, Darros is a fairly mediocre unit.

Darros is a pirate who decides to turn over a new leaf. Upon hearing of [[Marth]]'s approach, he tracks him down and joins his forces. Despite appearing as an enemy, he is not aggressive towards the player's units, only moving towards Marth to initiate his recruitment conversation. He then serves as a simple soldier for the rest of the war.

===Analysis===
{{analysis}}
Darros is a level&nbsp;3 [[Pirate]] who joins in Chapter&nbsp;2. His availability is his greatest advantage. All his base stats are either below average or outright terrible. He has high strength and HP growths, but dreadful skill and speed growths. His speed base is only high enough to avoid getting doubled by slower enemies. Since it will not increase much with levels, Darros will start getting doubled very soon. Especially in higher difficulties, he gets doubled and onerounded by many enemies. His terrible skill base and growth also make Darros's accuracy very poor. Few units in ''Shadow Dragon'' struggle with accuracy, so Darros's weakness in it makes him stand out in a bad way.
If Darros reaches promotion, he can reclass to [[Hero]] to remove his speed issue. That said, getting him there is a chore. His base axe rank is D, so he cannot use the [[Hammer]] without investment. He also has no good reclass options available before promotion. With so many disadvantages, it is difficult to justify using Darros over most other units. [[Bord]], [[Cord]] and [[Barst]] are axe users who join in the same chapter, and they all have an advantage over Darros. Bord has a higher axe rank, Cord is faster, Barst has better bases and growths. They can also all reclass to [[Pirate]] without losing anything, so Darros's class is not a point in his favor.

Darros was first added to the game in a special pirate variation as part of the [[Pirate's Pride]] update, and was made available to players in the thirty-first edition of the [[Tempest Trials+]], "Royal Treasures", which initially ran from August 8, 2020 through August 18, 2020. The aforementioned pirate variation of Darros is the only one currently available in ''Heroes'', and is based on his ''Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light'' incarnation; this variation is notably only the second character or variation solely credited to that game in the history of ''Heroes'', after [[Wrys]] (who had held that distinction since ''Heroes''{{'}}s initial launch).

In ''Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light'' Darros's characterization is minimal. His recruitment dialogue does show that he wants to leave behind his life of piracy, and he considers himself a "simple man". Additionally, his ending shows that he enjoys living carefree on the seas.

*Darros is the subject of a meme in the English-speaking ''Fire Emblem'' community due to a widely-circulated screenshot taken mid-text scroll of his ending in an early [[Fan translation#Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light|fan translation]] of {{title|Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light}} with broken English stating "He became sail".<ref>{{cite web|author=@theprinceofiris|url=https://twitter.com/theprinceofiris/status/1291761568498290688|title=Darros became sail comes from an old unofficial translation hack of the original FE, which uses incorrect English in his ending to say he went back to being a sailor. Due to the way the text scrolls, it can briefly say "He became sail"|site=Twitter|published=August 7, 2020|retrieved=March 31, 2024}}</ref> This meme was referenced in [[:File:FEH 4th anniversary Soeda Ippei.png|Soeda Ippei's illustration for ''Fire Emblem Heroes''{{'}}s fourth anniversary]], which depicts a boat with sails that have Darros's head drawn on them.<ref>{{cite web|author=@Ippei_painter|url=https://twitter.com/Ippei_painter/status/1356503217480163330|title=ファイアーエムブレム ヒーローズ配信4周年おめでとうございます!<br>💪🥳4️⃣🎂⛵️<br>お祝いイラストを描きました。<br>Darros<br>He became sail|site=Twitter|published=February 2, 2021|retrieved=March 31, 2024}}</ref>
