Flier Formation (Japanese: 編隊飛行 Formation Flying) is a three-tiered passive type B skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Heroes; the individual tiers of the skill are known as Flier Formation 1, Flier Formation 2, and Flier Formation 3 in order from lowest to highest. Units with a Flier Formation skill allow the user to move adjacent to an allied flying unit within two spaces of the user; the HP threshold required for this to take effect drastically decreases with the skill's tier.
