Data transfer
From Fire Emblem Wiki, your source on Fire Emblem information. By fans, for fans.
Several games in theFire Emblem series allow thetransferring of data from one game to another in order to obtain extra content. This page documents all such instances when a game can grant extra content when it is linked to another game.
Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade
Data for this game can be transferred from:
In the Japanese version ofThe Blazing Blade, the completed save data ofThe Binding Blade can be read from the Extras menu, unlockingEliwood's tale and the extended epilogue involving Roy and Lilina, which normally require finishing Lyn's tale, and clearing the main game nine times respectively. If the save data ending at theFinal Chapter is read, the extended epilogue involving Zephiel and Jahn is unlocked, which normally requires clearing the main game eleven times.
In the North American version, if the player'sGame Boy Advance is connected to aGameCube running theMario Kart: Double Dash!! bonus disc's "Fire Emblem GBA: Bonus Items" section, severalweapons,items, and music used in theSound Room can be accessed. Originally in Japan, these items were available only through taking one's copy ofThe Blazing Blade to aMonthly Nintendo demo kiosk at certain department stores and transferring the songs and items into the game on-site.[1] As no such facilities existed outside of Japan at the time, the items were instead made available through this bonus disc. No equivalent distribution was made forthe European or Oceanian releases.
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
Raven's official artwork fromThe Blazing Blade, displayed inPath of Radiance's extras menu whenThe Blazing Blade is connected withPath of Radiance.
Data for this game can be transferred from:
InPath of Radiance, if the GameCube is connected to aGame Boy Advance which has one of the three GBAFire Emblem games inserted via a GBA Link Cable, the game's extras menu, which is unlocked after beating the game, will display an option to view the official artwork of the characters in the connected game.
In addition, linking with a GBA game will also unlock one of threeTrial Maps; each game unlocks a different map, requiring all three games be connected withPath of Radiance if the player wishes to unlock all of the Trial Maps.The Binding Blade unlocksDesperation,The Blazing Blade unlocksEscape, andThe Sacred Stones unlocksTrapped.
Due toThe Binding Blade not releasing outside Japan, theBinding Blade artwork is completely inaccessible in the international regions ofPath of Radiance, though their data still exists and can be reenabled through the use of cheating devices. The Trial Map Desperation is changed to be unlocked by linking withThe Blazing Blade orThe Sacred Stones in the international versions.
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
Data for this game can be transferred from:
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn has perhaps the most extensive usage of data transferring in the entire series; there are many gameplay bonuses and extra content that can be unlocked if aPath of Radiance save file is transferred intoRadiant Dawn.
To transferPath of Radiance data toRadiant Dawn, a GameCube memory card with a completedPath of Radiance save file needs to be inserted to a Wii runningRadiant Dawn. When starting a new game inRadiant Dawn, the player will be prompted to choose to transfer a completedPath of Radiance save file. A bug in theearly North American versions ofRadiant Dawn causes the game to freeze if anyPath of Radiance save files on Easy Mode are found in the memory card; deleting these saves or using an updated copy fixes the issue.
Character stats
If a unit promoted or starts in their most advancedclass, reached their maximumlevel, and reached their maximum in a stat in a transferredPath of Radiance file, they will receive a bonus in that stat inRadiant Dawn. The stat bonuses are +5 forHP; and +2 forstrength,magic,skill,speed,luck,defense, andresistance.
- Example: In aPath of Radiance game, ifOscar promoted toPaladin, reached level 20, and reached 60 HP and 26 strength (his stat caps in those two areas) byEndgame, when the file is transferred intoRadiant Dawn, he will have 5 more HP and 2 more strength when he first becomes playable inPart III, Prologue.
There are two exceptions to the above system:Sothe andDanved.
- Should Sothe reach level 20 in a transferredPath of Radiance save file, all of his stats—with the exceptions ofbuild andmovement—will be directly transferred intoRadiant Dawn, even if a transferred stat is worse than its original base stat. The stats are transferred with respect to theRogue class's stat caps; for example, if Sothe's resistance inPath of Radiance is over the Rogue's resistance cap of 15, Sothe will have 15 resistance inRadiant Dawn when the save file is transferred and he joins.
- Stats capped byDevdan inPath of Radiance do provide bonuses toDanved inRadiant Dawn.
As he is not playable inRadiant Dawn,Largo's capped stats in a transferred file provide no benefit.
Due to joining at level 20 with capped strength, recruiting Giffca inPath of Radiance's Endgame will result in him automatically receiving a +2 strength bonus when he joins inRadiant Dawn'sPart IV, Endgame (1).
Weapon experience
A unit'sweapon level by the end ofPath of Radiance can result in boosts to theirweapon experience (WEXP) inRadiant Dawn if saidPath of Radiance save file is transferred intoRadiant Dawn. The minimum weapon level threshold inPath of Radiance to receive a WEXP bonus inRadiant Dawn is C.
| Weapon experience bonuses inRadiant Dawn | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weapon level inPath of Radiance andRadiant Dawn | Total WEXP bonus inRadiant Dawn | Cumulative WEXP required to reach further weapon level inRadiant Dawn | ||||||
| D | C | B | A | S | SS | |||
| E | -- | +30 | +70 | +120 | +180 | +250 | +330 | |
| D | -- | -- | +40 | +90 | +150 | +220 | +300 | |
| C | +40 | -- | -- | +50 | +110 | +180 | +260 | |
| B | +80 | -- | -- | -- | +60 | +130 | +210 | |
| A | +120 | -- | -- | -- | -- | +70 | +150 | |
| S | +160 | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | +80 | |
- Example: InRadiant Dawn,Jill starts with a Bweapon level inaxes. If she reached S in axes in aPath of Radiance save and the save is transferred intoRadiant Dawn, she will gain a +160 boost to her WEXP in axes, enough to instantly increase her weapon level from B to S (as it takes 130 WEXP to increase it from B to S) and be 30 WEXP into reaching SS in axes.
Bond supports
If a unit reached an A-rank support with another unit in aPath of Radiance save, it will become abond support when the file is transferred intoRadiant Dawn, giving the pair a +5 critical hit and critical avoid bonus when they are adjacent to each other.
Character recruitment
Some units can be recruited by some extra characters with a transferredPath of Radiance save file. InJill andZihark's cases, they are only recruitable if their extra recruiter has acquired an A-ranksupport with them in the transferredPath of Radiance save file. There are no characters that are only recruitable if aPath of Radiance save file is transferred.
| Chapter | Recruitable character | Always recruitable by | Also recruitable with a transferred file |
|---|---|---|---|
| Part III, Chapter 7;Part III, Endgame | Jill | Haar | Mist |
| Zihark | Lethe,Mordecai | Brom,Ilyana | |
| Part IV, Chapter 3 | Stefan | Micaiah | Lethe,Mordecai |
Coins
Any and allCoins that the player possesses at the end of aPath of Radiance game will be present in Ike'sconvoy in the beginning of Part III inRadiant Dawn game if thePath of Radiance save file is transferred toRadiant Dawn. Coins are much more useful inRadiant Dawn compared its predecessor, as they can be used duringforging to add a random bonus to weapons, whereas they can only be sold for exactly 1gold inPath of Radiance.
Support Archive
AllPath of Radiance supports unlocked across all save files in a transferredPath of Radiance copy can be viewed in the "POR Support Archive" section ofRadiant Dawn's extras menu.
Extra base conversation
Transferring aPath of Radiance save file whereIke andSoren have reached an A-rank support with each other is one of the requirements to view the finalbase conversation in the game: "Soren" inPart IV, Endgame (5).
