Louise attacks aWyvern Rider with aSilver Bow. Mostbows are effective against flying units; this is indicated by her bow's blinking white weapon icon.

Across theFire Emblem series, there are a number of weapons which possess the ability to deal extra damage to certain classes which possess a particular vulnerability to them. Thisbonus damage, also known aseffective damage oreffectiveness, is in most games handled by multiplying themight of the attacking weapon by 3 in thedamage calculation, but some games vary the method of effectiveness application.

Mechanics

Effectiveness against a class or set of classes is normally either specific to a particular weapon or, as is almost always the case withbows against flying classes, applied to an entire weapon type. Conversely, classes which possess similar physical attributes are often grouped together into a "unit type", sharing vulnerabilities to the same effective weapons. For example,Cavaliers andTroubadours are both classes involving a unit riding on horseback, so they are often collectively considered "mounted" or "cavalry" units and are all vulnerable to the same effective weapons, like theRapier andRidersbane. In games prior toPath of Radiance, unit types do not technically exist as an attribute of the class; rather, weapons are assigned a list of classes that they are effective against. Later games assign classes types and define the weapon as being effective against said types.

Depending on the game, some unit types are marked as such by small icons appearing in their profile. This practice started inFire Emblem: Path of Radiance, although the three GBA games had a similar feature where a class's mount type (horse, pegasus, or wyvern) was indicated with an icon.

Negating bonus damage

Some items and skills have effects that negate bonus damage. Holding or equipping these items or skills will neutralize some or all—depending on the skill or item—of the bonus damage a unit takes. Items and skills like theRafail Gem inThree Houses orNullify inRadiant Dawn nullify all bonus damage the user may take; others such as theIote's Shield in the DS games orConquest inAwakening nullify only bonus damage targeting certain unit types, so a unit of multiple types may take bonus damage targeting another type—for instance, aPegasus Knight inAwakening (beast and flying types) equipped with Conquest (negating beast and armor effectiveness) will not take bonus damage from aBeast Killer as it normally would, but will still take bonus damage from bows or windtomes.

Any unremovable attributes built into the weapon, like Wingslayer on bows, are also not subjected to this penalty.
