Loot

FE3H Siege of Arianrhod (Black Eagles) Loot.png

Location Loot Dropped
1 Brave Axe

Brave Axe

An axe that attacks twice. Definitely worth getting, although it's not like you have a choice, as Gwendal is a required foe to defeat.

Chapter 16 (Black Eagles) - Chests

FE3H Siege of Arianrhod (Black Eagles) Chests.png
There is only one chest, containing a Speedwing.

Location Chest Contents
1 Speedwing

Speedwing

Increases a character's speed by 2. Due to the distance of this, as the only way to get it without a door key is to travel along the outer wall alone, it's not really worth it. Leaving a lone unit also has the danger of Ingrid flying out to them, so it's dangerous as well as out of the way.

Chapter 16 (Black Eagles) - Map Features

Tiles

Floor Traps

These traps will hinder your unit's movements and damage them every turn. Activating these two levers will disable the traps.

Chapter 16 (Black Eagles) - Tips and Tricks

Disabling the Levers

For the closer lever, it's easy to reach using your units that start in the east. For the other lever, make sure you have a flier in your main force so they can disable the lever while on the top of the western wall without going through the Titanus.

Defeat Felix with Magic or Ranged

Felix is deadly if you have him as a unit, but just as deadly as an opponent. He can and will kill your units in one hit, so be sure to engage him with magic and ranged attacks, because a counter attack will be deadly.

Bring Armorslayers, Hammers, and other Anti-Armor Weapons

This map is populated by Fortress Knights and Great Knights, so these weapons will come in handy to instantly defeat these enemies.

Travel Along the Western Side of the Wall

FE3H Siege of Arianrhod (Black Eagles) Route.png
You must defeat all five commanders before the mission completes: Rodrigue, Felix, Gwendal, Ingrid, and Cornelia. You can defeat all of them without splitting up by following the path above. This also avoids most of the traps, except for two.
