Geoffrey (pronounced /ˈdʒɑfɹi/[key][3]; Japanese: ジョフレ Geoffray) is a playable character in both Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and its sequel, Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. He is the general of the Crimean Army and the commander of the Crimean Royal Knights. He is the younger brother of Lucia and close friends with Bastian. He grew up with Elincia and has since developed feelings for her.

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Geoffrey is the last playable paladin. He has high movement and Canto for most of his available chapters; only severely restricted by Chapter 25. He has excellent health and defense bases, making him a mobile physical tank. His base resistance is mediocre but at his join time, Pure Waters are readily available. The Knight Ward also boosts his defense and resistance, so he can be a well-rounded tank. He has enough strength, skill, and speed to offensively contribute without any investment, but on higher difficulties, he may struggle to double attack. His respectable Lance rank lets him use the Brave Lance, Silver Lances, and Spears; however, he cannot use axes which are more powerful. While bows are significantly less useful, he has a C rank which gives him accurate 2-range options with Laguz and Killer Bows.
Geoffrey has excellent growths all around, having above average growths in strength, skill, speed, defense, and resistance. His luck is his only weak growth. Though his base level is high, Paragon lets him take some advantage of his growths, quickly cap his level, and turn him into a powerful mobile endgame unit.
Geoffrey's Paragon should not be removed until he caps his level. Geoffrey is a practical candidate of the last Occult scroll, as he will likely have no more use of Paragon around then, and Sol improves his bulk even further. Resolve is also a good skill for him thanks to his bulk and respectable offensive bases. He works well with most other skills, though earlier skills like Adept and Wrath are better used on units with higher availability and space for skills.
Geoffrey has a fire affinity which gives him a useful attack and accuracy boost; this helps compensate for his lack of axes. His only partners are Calill and Elincia, so he should support both. Calill's dark affinity gives more attack, giving both units a valuable +3 attack at A support. Elincia's heaven affinity gives only accuracy which is significantly less useful, and she does not benefit much from Geoffrey's attack boost since she is not a useful combat unit.

- Note: The above stats are Geoffrey's default stats. If a Radiant Dawn game was started via a data transfer from Path of Radiance and Geoffrey managed to reach level 20 in his highest possible class in the Path of Radiance save file, any stat Geoffrey capped in Path of Radiance will result in a boost to his base in the stat in question in Radiant Dawn. The boost is a +5 for max HP, and +2 for strength, magic, skill, speed, luck, defense or resistance. In addition, Geoffrey's weapon level at the end of a transferred Path of Radiance game can result in an boost to his weapon experience in Radiant Dawn. See Data transfer § Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn for more information.

Analysis
This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience. |
Geoffrey is a paladin available for only a few chapters through most of the game, until endgame. He is usable for chapter 2-3, part of 2-E, all of 3-9, and 4-5 to endgame. He is the most powerful unit of the Crimean Royal Knights, having good offense, mobility, and bulk. Path of Radiance Geoffrey does not cap any stats on average, though if lucky or given stat boosters, he can feasibly cap strength, skill, speed, or defense. Radiant Dawn Geoffrey would benefit from any of these transfers significantly, especially from speed.
Due to Paragon, he can level up easily and frequently, and can easily promote by 3-9. His growths are generally weak, having only a decent growth in strength, skill and resistance, but he caps them very quickly, so bonus experience can help fix his other stats. However, Geoffrey is no longer usable until chapter 4-5, the last chapter before endgame, where he will be far underleveled. At this point, he will need significant babying or significant BEXP to catch up; note that Paragon does not decrease BEXP required. Even if caught up, his class as a Silver Knight is one of the weaker endgame classes due to lack of Hammer access and weak stat caps (especially speed). Ultimately Geoffrey is a valuable temporary unit in 2-3 and 3-9 but is often best left alone afterwards.
Geoffrey has innate paragon which helps him level up more frequently early on and promote earlier, learning Sol. Due to his availability, it is most practical to remove paragon in 3-9 and either teach it to a different Crimean Royal Knight unit, or carry the scroll to a unit that joins Ike's group in 3-11, as otherwise the benefits of Paragon will be wasted until endgame.
Geoffrey has a valuable fire affinity which boosts attack and accuracy. As his availability is one of the worst in the game, his support situation is awkward. Kieran, Makalov, Astrid, and Marcia are all similar classes and appreciate the attack boost, but supporting them with Geoffrey is not practical as the bonuses will not apply after chapter 3-9, until 4-5.
Fire Emblem Awakening
Role
