Breath (laguz)
| ||||
|
TheBreath (Japanese:ブレスBreath) is alaguzstrike weapon which was introduced inFire Emblem: Path of Radiance. It is the means of attack used by thedragon laguz clans, namely thered dragons,white dragons andblack dragons, with all of them exhaling blasts of a power related to them to attack. Each dragon clan has a unique variant of Breath with stats and powers specific to them. InPath of Radiance, all Breath types are restricted to melee combat which can only attack at 1range, but they were improved inRadiant Dawn to give them the ability to attack at both 1 and 2 range.
Like all strikes, all Breath variants are not affected bydurability and, being that they are part of the user's body, they cannot be unequipped, sold, or discarded. InRadiant Dawn, a unit's Breath will improve as theirweapon level increases, being replaced by successively more powerful versions until they reach the maximum rank.
