Due to being a chipper, his rate of experience gain will be very low, so he needs a lot of [[Bonus experience|BEXP]] support. His only high growths are Skill, [[Luck]], and Resistance; in addition, to his stable [[Biorhythm]] cycle, he will at minimum have very stable and reliable [[Hit|hit-rates]]. His [[Strength]] growth is merely average and his Defense and Speed growths are mediocre, so he will often struggle to deal damage and double without good levels. He can potentially be a decent mage-killer thanks to his good Resistance growth. On the other hand, his bad 2-range offense is mitigated by his unique bow [[Lughnasadh]], available in Part 3 (not in the Japanese version), which is very powerful and gives him a +5 Speed boost that he desperately needs. He can also one-shot many flying units in Part 3 and shines against the [[Begnion]] [[Pegasus Knights|Pegasus Knight]] reinforcements in Chapter 1-6. Promotion to [[Marksman]] gives him extra range which gives him a useful niche. However, he will often be promoted in Part 4 where Shinon and Rolf are also Marksmen superior to Leonardo, let alone the fact that his only 1-2 range combats are weak Xrossbows. The main reason to bring him to the [[Tower of Guidance]] is so you can give him the Lughnasadh and have another bowman equipped with the [[Double Bow]] and/or [[Brave Bow]]. On average, he caps Skill and Resistance, and will cap Luck as a Marksman. | Due to being a chipper, his rate of experience gain will be very low, so he needs a lot of [[Bonus experience|BEXP]] support.

Leonardo starts with the [[Cancel]] skill, which is mostly useless as most of his targets can't counter him, nor should they if they have a ranged weapon. Thus, it is highly recommended to give the Cancel skill to someone else on the team immediately. He can benefit a lot from [[Adept]], but Adept is Speed-based, so his activation rate will be low due to his meager Speed growths. [[Beastfoe]] and Crossbows might be doable through Part 3, but a promoted [[Nolan]] makes better use of said weapons because of his higher bulk. | |||
Leonardo has a [[Water affinity]] which gives a boost to [[Attack]] and Defense. He desperately needs more Attack, but unfortunately for him, the only units through Part 1 with attack-boosting affinities are Micaiah and [[Tormod]]. Both can work since they have similar backline roles and movement as Leonardo, but Micaiah has better options and Tormod is only available for a few chapters in Part 1 before returning extremely late in Chapter 4-4. Leonardo also has a fast support with Nolan; while it doesn't directly benefit Leo, Nolan gets a useful Attack and Aefense boost that he appreciates. | Leonardo has a [[Water affinity]] which gives a boost to [[Attack]] and Defense.
