Alfred Skills at 5★


Might: 16  Range: 1
Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 during combat, unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack, foe cannot make a follow-up attack, and also, if unit or foe initiates combat after moving to a different space, grants Special cooldown charge +1 to unit per attack during combat. (Only highest value applied. Does not stack.)

Cooldown Count = 3
Boosts damage dealt by 50% of unit’s Def.

Grants Atk+10, Spd+5, Def+20. Inflicts Res-5. At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, inflicts Special cooldown charge -1 on foe per attack during combat. (Only highest value applied. Does not stack.)

Enables 【Canto (Rem. +1)】.
If unit inifiates combat, neutralizes effects that prevent unit's follow-up attacks.
After an attack, Assist skill, or structure destruction, unit can move spaces = any movement not already used that turn + 1. (If unit used a movement skill that warped them, its remaining movement is 0.)
(Unit moves according to movement type. Once per turn, cannot attack or assist. Only highest value applied. Does not stack. After moving, if a skill that grants another action would be triggered (like with Galeforce), Canto will trigger again. Unit's base movement has no effect on movement granted. Cannot warp (using skills like Wings of Mercy) a distance greater than unit's remaining movement +1.)

Grants Atk+5 to allies in cardinal directions of unit during combat.

Alfred Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat Superboon/Superbane IV Recommendation
HP (18) HP Superbane ★★★☆☆
Atk (15) Attack Boon ★★★★★
Spd (3) Spd Bane ★★☆☆☆
Def (10) Def Bane ★★★★★
Res (5) Res Bane ★★☆☆☆

◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws

See the IV Checker for All Units Trait Fruits—How to Change IVs

When using an Ascendant Floret, we recommend getting the next superboon if it fits the hero. If not, consider what stat your hero needs most.

+Atk / -Res

The best IVs for Alfred are +Atk and -Res. His Atk is a superboon and is very high at base 45, further boosted by Self-Improver.

While Def is also a very important stat, Self-Improver boosts it by a hefty +20, which is enough to function as a sturdy physical tank.

His Res is below average and is even reduced further by Self-Improver, making it a dump stat.

+Atk for a +10 merge

We recommend +Atk when merging Alfred up to +10 to improve his offensive performance. His physical bulk is already sufficient with Self-Improver.

How to Use, Explanation

Alfred's skills and stats work best with a bulky physical attacker set. Atk/Def Menace is used to extend his Atk/Def stat lead on his foes further. Atk/Def Catch synergizes with the debuffs from Menace.

Alfred is a close physical attacker (range = 1). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage he deals will be equivalent to his Atk minus the foe's Def stat.

Alfred Strengths

Arcane Qiang as multiple in-combat effects

Alfred Attack Fire Emblem Heroes FEH

Alfred's Arcane Lance, Arcane Qiang, accelerates his Special trigger, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5, grants a follow-up attack while denying his foe's own follow-up attack, and grants Special charges per attack if the initiator moved to a different space.

This inheritable Arcane weapon is perfect for units who wish to trigger their Specials often. 3 cooldown Specials like Bonfire trigger after one attack, while Galeforce can be charged up in one round of combat.

Self-Improver grants a lot of bonus stats and inflicts Guard

Alfred's exclusive skill Self-Improver grants Atk+10, Spd+5, and Def+20, in return for inflicting Res-5.

Additionally, it also applies a Guard effect onto the foe during combat.

The raw stats turn Alfred into a very formidable physical tank, and can even be used to win Def checks due to the nature of raw stats over in-combat bonuses.

Alfred Weaknesses

Weak to Cavalry Effective Weapons

Alfred takes 1.5x damage from cavalry-effective weapons like Thani or Binding Reginleif, and one blow from this type of weapon is sure to take him down. Make sure you know what weapons you are up against before hopping too far into the line of battle!
