Crests

Crests (紋章, Monshō) are special items that can be bought from the Crest Market, where they can be crafted from a specific set of material(s) and for the right amount of gold to enhance a hero's attack capabilities, defensive power, or skills.

These materials vary hero to hero and are typically based on:

The weapon type the hero uses
- For example, Combo Crest I requires 1x Captain's Lance for Cordelia (Lance unit), but 1x Captain's Sword for Marth (Sword unit).
  - For those within the Weapon Effectiveness Triangle, the Serenity & Awaken Crests require materials from their unit's weapon weakness, while the War God, Fury, and Special Crests require materials from their unit's weapon advantage.
    - E.g. Serenity Crest I requires 1x Soldier's Waist Guard & Captain's Lance for Sword units, while the Spear units need 1x Axe Fighter's Glove & Captain's Axe.
    - E.g. Fury Crest I requires 1x Myrmidon's Breechcloth & Captain's Sword for Spear units, while the Axe units need 1x Soldier's Waist Guard & Captain's Lance.
For higher tier crests that are unlocked by promoting units, specific materials for certain heroes are required, some more unique than others.
- For example, Ryoma's Combo Crest IV requires 1x Ryoma's Headpiece, 3x Myrmidon's Head Guard, and 5x Myrmidon's Breechcloth.
- Higher tier crests may also use specific materials from specific heroes, such as Cordelia needing 1x Frederick's Pebbles as one of the materials for Fang Crest I.

Skill Boost Crests[ | ]

Skill Boost Crests (固有スキル, Koyū Sukiru) are unique crests that are exclusive to each individual hero unit. Once a hero learns their unique skill, other heroes can then learn that skill crest as well.

Skill Crest effects vary greatly, with some improving certain stats while others improve a Vanguard's pair up defense, etc.

For each unit, their unique skill will cost 3 of their Silver material (eg. Robin's personal skill Solidarity needs 3x Robin's Primers). For any other hero that wants to learn this skill, the materials will be instead 1x of that hero's essence and 1x of that hero's rare material (eg. Cordelia needs 1x Robin's Essence and 1x Robin's Robes to learn Solidarity).
