	Resolve+ If unit's HP is 75% or less after combat, grants Def/Res+7 as long as unit's HP stays below 75%. Ike Bond Level 18

	Lance Power 5 Grants Atk+10 at a cost of Avo-10 when using a lance. Sigurd Bond Level 18
	Resistance +5 Grants Res+5. Micaiah Bond Level 19

Respectable growths in Str and Def combined with Golden Lotus make Alfred a viable tank that deals significant damage.

Lance Power 5 and Momentum+ provide Alfred with boosts to the damage he can dish out.

Alfred is susceptible to Magic due to having a relatively low Res stat, so consider supplementing him with skills like Resistance +5 and Resolve+.

Alfred Best Emblem

Recommended Emblems

Sigurd

Leif

Roy

Alfred has an overall impressive stat growth, especially with HP and Def. Pair him with Sigurd to maximize Alfred's mobility and increase his Str and Spd further to defeat enemies all over the map.

Leif and Micaiah are great for raising Alfred's defenses even more, with Leif's powerful counterattacks against most weapons, and Micaiah raising Alfred's Res to make up for his weakness against magic.

Alfred Paired Ending and Romance

Pact Ring with Alfred

After clearing Chapter 22, players unlock The Connector Paralogue and can subsequently unlock the Pact Ring. This essentially acts as Fire Emblem Engage's S-Rank Support and romance route.

Alear can then give the ring to Alfred once they have attained an A-Rank in support to view a special cutscene, and unlock a page in the reference about the life they lived together.

Alfred's Memento

Heirloom embroidery from the Firene royal family that Alfred gave me as a sign of his feelings. It's practically a national treasure.

Apart from obtaining an exclusive ending with Alfred after giving the Pact Ring, players can also head to Alear's room and check the small table next to their bed to find a memento from his.

While the memento serves no purpose in combat whatsoever unlike the Merc Whistle in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, it further contextualizes the paired ending selected by the player.
