===Analysis=== | |||
{{analysis}} | |||
Tristan is a substitute unit, and while he has some advantages, he also has significant drawbacks. His most significant advantage is that he has a mount, giving him good mobility and allowing him to always keep up with the player's main forces. His most significant disadvantage is that he lacks the [[Follow-Up]] skill, which prevents him from doubling enemies. He only has [[Critical (skill)|Critical]], which is not a very useful skill by itself. Aside from that, Tristan's growth rates are rather poor in all areas except for HP, where his growth is over 100%. He also has terrible resistance, so he cannot fight magic users very well and is vulnerable to status staves – both of which are frequently present in [[Light and Dark|Chapter 10]] and [[End of the Holy War|Endgame]], greatly limiting Tristan's potential contributions there. | |||
Given Tristan's lack of Follow-Up, his baseline damage output is very poor. What exacerbates the issue is the fact he joins with a mere [[Iron Sword]], so his attacking power in Chapter 6 is outright terrible. Giving him a better weapon in future chapters mitigates his issues, but granting him the Follow-Up skill requires giving him the [[Follow-Up Ring]], and it can be a contested resource if the player has other substitute units. The best possible resource Tristan can receive is a [[Brave Sword]], preferably one inherited from the first generation, as it allows Tristan to strike twice despite his lack of Follow-Up and makes his Critical skill more likely to activate. Additionally, Tristan's promotion gives him a lot of skill and speed, with the skill bonus being a notable increase to his Critical activation rate and the speed bonus letting him meet the [[attack speed]] thresholds for doubling more enemies, should he have the Follow-Up Ring. With the Brave Sword, Tristan can quadruple most enemies and has a good chance to critically strike at least once in the process. However, the Brave Sword is arguably even more contested than the Follow-Up Ring, as virtually any unit capable of using swords can use it to good effect. Tristan does have a good argument for it, as he is a mounted unit with several traits that synergize with it, but the competition still exists. | |||
Without any resources, Tristan will be a mediocre, filler combat unit at best, capable of keeping up, but incapable of significant contributions. With resources, Tristan can be a good combat unit, but making him one deprives the player's other units of important resources, as he cannot be a good combat unit without them. | |||

Tristan (Japanese: トリスタン Tristan) is the son of Eve of Nordion, and the elder brother of Jeanne.[1] He and Jeanne were orphaned in their infancy during the wars in Agustria and were adopted by Sigurd's army, later fleeing with Oifey, Shannan, and Seliph to Tirnanog, during which Jeanne was lost.[2] Growing up as a warrior under Oifey's tutelage, he was later one of the first members of Seliph's liberation army in Grann 777.
Tristan is Diarmuid's substitute character, filling his role in the story and gameplay if Lachesis died or failed to be married in the course of the first generation.

Analysis

Tristan is a substitute unit, and while he has some advantages, he also has significant drawbacks. His most significant advantage is that he has a mount, giving him good mobility and allowing him to always keep up with the player's main forces.

Aside from that, Tristan's growth rates are rather poor in all areas except for HP, where his growth is over 100%. He also has terrible resistance, so he cannot fight magic users very well and is vulnerable to status staves – both of which are frequently present in Chapter 10 and Endgame, greatly limiting Tristan's potential contributions there.
