Analysis

This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience.

Robert joins as a level 1 Arch Knight with horrible base stats for his join time, except for passable speed. His weapon ranks are also horrible - he has an E-rank in bows with no weapon experience and no other weapon types that he can use. As a level 1 unit, Robert is far away from promotion, and he has no skills, either. While he has 3 FCM, it takes him a very long time to get the weapon rank for the Killer Bow.

Robert's class comes with some advantages. He has 2-range, so he can avoid counterattacks from enemies. He also has a mount outdoors, so his mobility vastly increases on outdoor maps, and he can perform a defensive retreat after attacking thanks to Canto. Outside of these benefits, Robert has a decent FCM of 3 and an action star. The latter gives him a 5% chance to move again after he completes his turn. It is unreliable, but it is something he has that several other units lack.

That said, Robert also has several disadvantages. Outside of his low base stats for this point of the game, he cannot counter at 1-range, because he can only use bows. He receives dismount penalties indoors, decreasing his already poor stats. As a bow user, Robert cannot capture enemies, either, which is especially poor as mounted units are usually able to capture as if they had 20 build. Indoor maps also cut into Robert's movement, removing one of his few advantages, though he does retain the ability to wield bows. His poor bow rank also means he will be unable to use better bows, meaning he has to rely purely on his stats to kill, which only become decent after a lot of levels.

Overall, Robert is a growth-reliant unit who can barely contribute at base level. Players who do not want to waste time on training units will bench him. Crusader Scrolls and the Paragon Manual can help Robert catch up, though. Once he is trained, he can contribute with 2-range combat, but without training, he will never do much of note. Even in this niche, Selphina can do this as well, but with the ability to wield the Brave Bow with no investment.

Personality

Robert is nondescript, and given no explicit personality traits. His ending suggests that he is timid and sheepish. His profile on the Thracia 776 website mentions he is a war orphan and that he has an attachment to Selphina.[1] His supports suggest he also has some connection to Glade though the game never elaborates on it.

Endings

Robert, Bow Knight of Leonster
After his strong requests, Robert was put in the new Kingdom of Thracia’s royal guard. Robert himself was probably trying his best to be a legendary warrior, but he never could fix his timidity. Apparently, more than a few of the female servants in the castle found his sheepish nature cute.
