She also gains a D-rank in bows, granting her a 2-range option for the player phase. This is not especially useful for the enemy phase, because melee enemies will attack Lyn without getting countered. But for the player phase, having access to bows can sometimes come in handy, particularly against durable enemies late into the game. That said, there are better bow users available, particularly [[Rath]], who has a mount. The main issue is that Lyn did not need a 2-range option - she needed a 1-2 range option, and her promotion does not give her that. Still, once Lyn is promoted, she becomes a much better unit. | She also gains a D-rank in bows, granting her a 2-range option for the player phase.

Lyn's endgame performance is subpar at best. She receives the [[Sol Katti]] to use in the last chapter, but this weapon is terrible. It has less might than a [[Silver Sword]] and weighs more than a [[Silver Axe]]. Since Lyn has constitution issues, using this weapon prevents her from doubling most enemies. | |||

Lyn's durability issues also resurface here because the bosses in this chapter are immensely powerful. Lyn's defenses will still not be amazing at this stage of the game. Unless the player has used stat boosters like the [[Angelic Robe]] on Lyn, some bosses in the final chapter will one-shot her from full HP. If the player has not been lucky with Lyn's defensive level-ups, fighting any boss with her puts her at a huge risk of dying. | Lyn's durability issues also resurface here because the bosses in this chapter are immensely powerful.

Overall, Lyn has a few advantages: a very high speed value in the early game and a strong personal weapon - the [[Mani Katti]]. She is also a highly available unit, trainable since the beginning of Lyn Mode. However, she has many significant issues impeding her performance. Lyn | Overall, Lyn has a few advantages: a very high speed value in the early game and a strong personal weapon - the [[Mani Katti]]. She is also a highly available unit, trainable since the beginning of Lyn Mode. However, she has many significant issues impeding her performance. Lyn has a mediocre constitution, low base strength, terrible durability, and poor weapon type selection. Even promotion and stat boosters do not completely nullify her weaknesses. She is difficult to use without getting her killed and has few situations where she excels. These issues leave Lyn as the weakest lord in ''The Blazing Blade'' and one of the worst units in the game. | ||
