Tactical Advice If in defensive stance in a pair, the attack stance partner has Hit+10
Solidarity Adjacent allies are granted Avoid+10 and Critical Evade+10
Ignis Skill % chance of adding half of the user’s Strength or Magic to attack damage, depending on weapon equipped
Rally Spectrum Use “Rally” command to grant all allies within a 2-tile radius +2 points to all stats for one turn

The Grandmaster returns from Fire Emblem: Awakening more or less intact, this time with a slightly skewed focus towards magic. Well-balanced in all respects since this was the protagonist’s class in the last installment, the Grandmaster is very well-rounded and average in a good way. Obtain the Grandmaster’s seal, the Fell Brand, every time you complete the DLC map Hidden Truths 1 .

Ignis is a really great skill and is basically an improved version of Rend Heaven. Unlike Rend Heaven, Ignis will increase damage based on what weapon the user has equipped, not the enemy, making it a reliable source of damage augmentation. Rally Spectrum used to be more powerful, granting +4 to all stats instead of +2, but is still very powerful and can stack with other normal Rally skills.
