Strategy

This section details unofficial strategies that may help with completion of the chapter. This may not work for everybody.

You face a ton of Bow Knights plus some Arcanists and Barons. Your own Bow Knights will put in a lot of work in this map—fortunately, the class' base stats are sufficient to survive a round of combat with Mueller even on Hard. The last line of defense between you and Rigel Castle will buckle easily, if a little slowly.

Echoes: Shadows of Valentia
An unconquerable
fortress hewn into the
mountainside. It has
never fallen in its long
history of defending
Rigel Castle.
山の中腹に造られた
非常に堅牢な
難攻不落の要塞。
なにものにも破られた
ことのない、
リゲル城の防衛の要。

Trivia

  • This is one of the few maps in Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia where the player unit's deployment positions were changed slightly from Gaiden; three player units that were placed in a straight line to the left of the starting area were spread out into a different pattern and moved closer to the main forces.
