Growth rates when reclassed

Analysis

Goldmary is a prepromotedHero who joins inChapter 16. Goldmary is fairly balanced in terms of base stats, with high to average personal bases in every area, aside from low base stats in magic and build. Goldmary's growth rates are quite mediocre, aside from her decent 65% growth in HP and outstanding 55% growth rate in defense. Goldmary also joins with high weapon ranks in swords and lances, giving her solid combat in her starting chapter. Along with that, Goldmary is two levels away from gainingBrave Assist, which allows Goldmary to attack twice in achain attack when she has full HP, improving her utility immensely.

Goldmary's personal skill, Disarming Sigh, lowers her foe's hit rate by 20 if the opponent is male. A vast majority of enemies are male, giving her an ample amount of enemies to utilize this effect. However, there is a significant number of female enemy bosses, such asMarni,Zephia, andVeyle, meaning that Goldmary's personal skill sometimes will not activate on some of the most threatening enemies on a map. Goldmary, also joins with 1800 skill points which allows her to immediately inheritDual Assist and 200 points away fromDual Assist+.

Goldmary's biggest weakness is her late join time, along with only decent base stats. While her physical durability is impressive and Goldmary sports enough speed to avoid getting doubled, her combat is limited due to lacking the speed necessary to double most enemies, as well as not having particularly high strength. In contrast, most playable units by the time Goldmary joins have already built up theirbond levels withEmblem Rings and inherited powerful skills such asSpeedtaker orCanter. As such, Goldmary has some trouble keeping up with most of the army, but her well balanced base stats still allow her to contribute in the lategame ofEngage.

On the topic of reclassing, Goldmary is fairly flexible in terms of class options. TheGreat Knight class improves her physical defense even further, while also improving her movement. Goldmary will also generally still have enough speed in the Great Knight class to avoid getting doubled by most enemies, giving her excellent survivability against most physical enemies, along with giving her access to the skill,Allied Defense, improving her utility. TheWarrior class improves Goldmary's strength and gives her access to bows and axes, along with theMerciless skill, significantly improving her offenses. However, due to the heavy weight of axes, combined with Goldmary's low personal build, will make Goldmary get weighed down significantly.Wyvern Knight is another strong option for Goldmary as it improves her strength, gives her flying utility andAir Raid, which significantly improves her speed.

When it comes to which Emblem Rings fit Goldmary the best. TheRing of the Radiant Hero is a natural fit for Goldmary as it improves her physical defense even further withLaguz Friend and lets her useGreat Aether. TheRing of the Holy Knight works well as a strong repositioning ring on her for consistent chain attacks, pairing up well with Brave Assist, thanks to higher movement and Canter. TheRing of the Young Lion is another strong option asRise Above allows Goldmary to somewhat patch up her mediocre strength, along with giving her more survivability withHold Out. Finally, theRing of the Lady of the Plains significantly improves Goldmary's speed, along with the aforementioned Speedtaker, which can allow Goldmary to reach doubling thresholds.

Overall, Goldmary is a decent filler lategame unit who can find fill a spot on a player's team in case other playable units aren't up to snuff for the remaining chapters in the game, but will likely be outclassed by units that joined earlier.
