Type(s)

Engage attack

First game

Engage

Dragon Blast (Japanese: 神竜破 Divine Dragon Break) is a skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Engage. It is Emblem Alear's engage attack, and can only be used once per engaged state; as engaging with Alear puts two units in the engaged state, each unit can use it once. When activated, the user deals two consecutive strikes: one with a sword, and another with a magical beam. As an engage attack, it can have additional effects depending on the unit type of the user.

When Alear is adjacent to their engage partner, the skill becomes Bond Blast (Japanese: 絆・神竜破 Bond - Divine Dragon Break), a more powerful variant that has both units attack with a sword, then combine their power into the magical beam.
