Constitution (Japanese: 体格 Build), abbreviated as Con (Bld in Thracia 776, Cn in Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn) is a statistic applied to units that represents that unit's physical size. Its original function was to alleviate the effects of the weight of the unit's currently-equipped weapon on that unit's attack speed in battle—prior to the statistic's introduction in Thracia 776, units' attack speed bore the full brunt of a weapon's weight, often crippling users of heavy weapon types such as axes. Constitution also affects whether or not units can rescue each other: a unit with a higher constitution can rescue one with lower, but not vice versa.
The Constitution stat lost many of its functions in Path of Radiance: in the attack speed calculation, it was replaced by Strength; the rescuing calculation instead used the new weight stat; and Aid was removed entirely. It, however, retained some niche usage in the calculations for the Colossus and Shove skills, in Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn respectively.
Constitution was removed entirely in Shadow Dragon, and has not appeared since.
Calculations
Attack speed
- Main article:
Attack speed
Game | Formula | Notes |
---|---|---|
Thracia 776 | Speed - (Weapon weight - Constitution) | Applies to physical weaponry only. If (Weight-Con) is negative, the result is taken to be 0. |
The Binding Blade | Speed - (Weapon weight - Constitution) | If (Weight-Con) is negative, the result is taken to be 0. |
The Blazing Blade | Speed - (Weapon weight - Constitution) | If (Weight-Con) is negative, the result is taken to be 0. |
The Sacred Stones | Speed - (Weapon weight - Constitution) | If (Weight-Con) is negative, the result is taken to be 0. |
Aid
The Aid stat exists only in the Game Boy Advance games, and its formulae are identical across all three games. Its main purpose is to determine whether or not one unit may Rescue another.
Foot unit's Aid: | Constitution - 1 |
Male mounted unit's Aid: | 25 - Constitution |
Female mounted unit's Aid: | 20 - Constitution |
Ability to rescue

Thracia 776 | Infantry: If [Unit A's Con] > [Unit B's Con], then Unit A can rescue Unit B. Mounted: If [Unit B's Con] < 20 and Unit A is mounted, then Unit A can rescue Unit B. |
Mounted units cannot be rescued without first dismounting. Units with 20 Con cannot be rescued under any circumstances. |
The Binding Blade | If [Unit A's Aid] ≥ [Unit B's Con], then Unit A can rescue Unit B. | -- |
The Blazing Blade | If [Unit A's Aid] ≥ [Unit B's Con], then Unit A can rescue Unit B. | -- |
The Sacred Stones | If [Unit A's Aid] ≥ [Unit B's Con], then Unit A can rescue Unit B. | -- |
