Fire Emblem Engage Yunaka: An In-Depth Guide

You may select from a wide variety of characters in Fire Emblem Engage. Along with picking the character, you also need to consider how you want to build that character. Yunaka is the only character who is not associated with any specific school of thought. You can recruit her as one of the two independent characters. She is one of the greatest flex units, or “jacks of all trades,” out there. In Fire Emblem Engage, Yunaka’s best class is very difficult to choose.

In battle, Yunaka is an ultimate demon. She seldom takes damage and is always able to deal with it due to her strong avoidance and the ability to attack opponents from neighboring diagonal tiles.

Key Highlights
  • Yunaka is the only character who is not associated with any specific school of thought.
  • To recruit Yunaka, you need to confront her in Chapter 6: The Stolen Ring.
  • Yunaka debuts as a Thief in Fire Emblem Engage, which is indeed the best class for her.
  • Swordmaster and Wolf Knight will also be a better choice for selecting a class for Yunaka.
  • Yunaka’s stats are not impressive, especially in head-on battles, but she can deliver multiple hits simultaneously due to Leif’s Quadruple Hit skill.

Best Class For Yunaka

Yunaka in Fire Emblem Engage
Fire Emblem Engage: Yunaka Best Class

Yunaka excels as a Thief due to her strong stat growths in this class. However, there are some other class options worth considering for her:

  1. Thief (Base Class): Yunaka’s natural class is Thief, and it has a high emphasis on speed and dexterity, making her a nimble and evasive attacker. She wields daggers effectively, which have a 1-2 tile range, deal good damage, and can inflict poison on enemies. Enhancing her Avoid with Dawn Engrave at the Blacksmith can make her even more elusive.
  2. Swordmaster: Yunaka can also perform well as a Swordmaster. Her S proficiency in Swordmaster makes it a viable option. Using a Master Seal, you can promote her to this class. The Swordmaster class further enhances her sword skills, and the Wolf Knight subclass is an excellent choice due to her A proficiency. The Hobble Skill can be beneficial as it inflicts a movement penalty on enemies when initiating combat with a dagger attack.

Personal Skill

Yunaka, who belongs to the Thief class, excels at .sneak attacks. This is demonstrated by her skill Trained to Kill, which grants +15 to Crit if she is in any terrain that grants an Avo boost. The Thief class is not the only one that can use the Trained to Kill skill. Since this is a skill that Yunaka developed herself, you can use it in any class.

Best Emblem For Yunaka

The two greatest emblems for Yunaka are Byleth and Leif. Both emblems are of the support type.

By bestowing her teammates with various benefits during the battle, Byleth enables Yunaka to remain behind and support her troops without engaging in direct combat. Byleth also enables Yunaka to stay concealed for most of the battle because she has the ability to hit critically, especially when the situation calls for it.

On the other hand, Leif lets Yunaka use her capacity to carry and employ many weapons at once. As a matter of fact, Yunaka can deliver multiple hits simultaneously due to Leif’s Quadruple Hit skill, increasing her likelihood of scoring a critical hit from a favorable position.
