Cornered Beast
| ||||
|
Cornered Beast (Japanese: 噛猫 Cat bite) is a skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Engage. Cornered Beast greatly increases its user's critical rate when they have low HP, and is exclusively used by enemy Berserkers and Tetchie on the game's highest difficulty mode, Maddening. It is very similar to the effect of Wrath in most games, but in Engage itself, that skill has a new version of its effect that differentiates it from Cornered Beast.
