Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Jade is the second Armor to join the game. Compared to a Louis scaled to her join level, she has slightly less HP, Strength, Defense and Build while having more Magic, Skill and Resistance. The stat differences are mostly negligible, and she will be able to wall enemies just as Louis does. Her superior Skill makes her much more reliable than Louis; as both can only get one attack off per round of combat, a missed attack is far more detrimental than it would be for a faster unit. Unfortunately, her higher Resistance is mostly useless as enemy magic users scale their damage output too fast for Jade to keep up with.
Jade's growth rates are also less extremely optimized compared to Louis, with lower Strength and Defense. However, it isn't necessarily a bad thing. Enemies on Maddening do not attack if they have 0% hit or deal 0 damage unless they can apply some sort of debuff, and Louis' higher Defense causes him to scale too fast for his own good, resulting in lower-STR enemies like Griffin Knights and Swordmasters ignoring him completely. On the other hand, Jade's Defense scales just slowly enough that she takes single-digit damage from them, allowing her to be targeted and for her to get counterattacks off; the difference in durability is not a detriment as Jade's HP pool is still sufficient to survive Enemy Phase, as like other armored units, she can't one-shot Maddening enemies without a lot of support. On the flip side, however, promoting Jade too early can also cause problems as a jump of 2 DEF is enough to make certain enemies ignore her, such as Sword Fighters and Sword Fliers in Chapter 10. This does make her compete for early Master Seals less, which can benefit units who need early promotions more; the general statline of armored units (strong enough to 2HKO, not strong enough to 1HKO) and lack of a movement increase on promotion means she doesn't lose anything important from waiting to promote.
Jade also has a 25% personal Magic growth. While it may look like a waste in the short term, after Chapter 14 it shows its true value. Marni drops her Hurricane Axe in that chapter; with it, Jade's base 4 Magic scales enough to OHKO every non-boss enemy flier with very little investment. More importantly, her DEF scales just slowly enough that Griffin Knights, even those with lower-MT swords, are able to scratch and target her, allowing Jade to massacre entire groups of them on enemy phase. 4 level ups gives her the 5 Magic needed to OHKO Griffin Knights in Chapter 16. As Jade doesn't care about speed or avoid, she can handle the Ike engraving well; its +3 might boost becomes +9 with effective damage, giving the Hurricane Axe 69 MT against fliers; this upgrade lets her slaughter fliers in Chapter 18 and Roy's Paralogue. By the time Chapter 21 rolls around, Jade can get away with a single forge onto the Hurricane Axe to keep OHKO-ing the fliers, whereas lower-MAG units would have required far more investment. A +3 forge (for a total investment of 150 Iron Ingots, 8 Steel Ingots and 4,000 gold) lets her continue OHKO-ing fliers in Chapter 23, while further chapters require no more than 6 additional points of damage, by which point means of providing that damage increase are widely available.
Personality
Jade is calm and collected and loyal to her duties, and is often considered coldhearted by others, but she is unexpectedly cheerful and enjoys interesting things.[1]
