- Not to be confused with Thunder (tome).
| ||||
|
Lightning (Japanese: ライトニング Lightning), known as Light (Japanese: ライト Light) in Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, is a light magic tome which debuted in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War. In all of its appearances as a light magic tome, it is the the most basic light tome. In most appearances as a light tome, it is the light equivalent to Fire, Thunder, Wind, and Flux, statistically, functioning similarly to the Bronze or Iron Swords, possessing low might and weight relative to higher hit compared to its counterpart tomes. In Genealogy of the Holy War, however, it is closer to being a counterpart to Elfire stat-wise, and in Thracia 776 it is not a direct counterpart to other tomes, but it has a high critical rate.
In Fates, Lightning functions differently as a thunder-themed, uncategorized tome. It is a brave weapon, allowing its user to strike twice as many times as they normally would when they initiate an attack, but in exchange it has very low might and inflicts temporary stat reductions on its user after its use.
