===Analysis=== | |||
{{analysis}} | |||
Valbar is a knight that joins in act 2, he has high bases and growths in HP, strength and defense, but low or mediocre ones in every other area. His 4 movement makes it hard for him to keep up with the pegasus knights and dread fighters in Celica's difficult terrain-filled maps. Unlike magic users, Valbar doesn't have ways to extend his range and will likely see little combat in the later chapters. Despite his great HP, because of his low speed and resistance he can often be one-rounded by witches, needing to be trained up to survive them. Luckily he has the highest fatigue tolerance in the game, at 0.65, making it easier to train him up. However in faster playthroughs Valbar will likely never see combat due to his 4 movement. | |||
With the use of the pitchfork DLC, Valbar can reclass into a more useful class such as mercenary, but without it Valbar will likely be a far larger liability than anything else in every map. | |||
Valbar does have a niche as a defensive unit in Celica's army when he joins, since Celica's squad is on the less durable side overall. However, the difficult terrain in Celica's maps impedes him even more than other units, leaving him unable to fight and be useful. Beyond these maps, other units will have outgrown him and he will no longer have a niche to fill. This puts Valbar in a difficult spot, because he will struggle to contribute the entire time he is in the army. While Valbar can still be used and will never be completely useless, it is difficult to find something to do for him unless the player goes out of their way to make use of him. | |||
=={{FE17}}== | |||
===Role=== | |||
Valbar appears as an equippable [[Bond Ring]]. He can be summoned using [[Celica]]'s [[Emblem Ring]]. | |||

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Valbar is a knight that joins in act 2, he has high bases and growths in HP, strength and defense, but low or mediocre ones in every other area. His 4 movement makes it hard for him to keep up with the pegasus knights and dread fighters in Celica's difficult terrain-filled maps. Unlike magic users, Valbar doesn't have ways to extend his range and will likely see little combat in the later chapters. Despite his great HP, because of his low speed and resistance he can often be one-rounded by witches, needing to be trained up to survive them. Luckily he has the highest fatigue tolerance in the game, at 0.65, making it easier to train him up. However in faster playthroughs Valbar will likely never see combat due to his 4 movement.
With the use of the pitchfork DLC, Valbar can reclass into a more useful class such as mercenary, but without it Valbar will likely be a far larger liability than anything else in every map.
Valbar does have a niche as a defensive unit in Celica's army when he joins, since Celica's squad is on the less durable side overall. However, the difficult terrain in Celica's maps impedes him even more than other units, leaving him unable to fight and be useful. Beyond these maps, other units will have outgrown him and he will no longer have a niche to fill. This puts Valbar in a difficult spot, because he will struggle to contribute the entire time he is in the army. While Valbar can still be used and will never be completely useless, it is difficult to find something to do for him unless the player goes out of their way to make use of him.
Fire Emblem Engage
Role
Valbar appears as an equippable Bond Ring. He can be summoned using Celica's Emblem Ring.

Trivia
- On April Fools's Day in 2017 a fake Fire Emblem game called Fire Emblem: Battle of Revolution was given a page on Nintendo's website, featuring Fire Emblem Gaiden style graphics. Valbar, Kamui, and Leon were featured prominently, appearing in the background art and receiving portraits drawn in the style of the NES games.[2]
- Along with main characters Alm and Celica, Valbar is the only character from Fire Emblem Gaiden to appear in both Awakening and Engage.
