Bushido (Japanese: 武士道 Bushido) is a skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Fates. The personal skill of Ryoma, it allows the user to, if their level is the same or higher than that of their support unit's, get gains in their critical rate and damage dealt, and lower damage taken. In Engage, its effect is otherwise identical, but due to the lack of the dual system, the trigger is now based on the current foe's level.
