In the Fire Emblem Engage, there are numerous ways to acquire EXP – but one of the simplest methods is conquering challenges in The Tower of Trials. The Tower of Trials not only offers the chance to grind EXP but also supplies invaluable items that can be used for upgrading weapons and units. While Fire Emblem Tower Trials are optional skirmishes, they have no direct effect on the main plot of your journey. In this guide, I’ll provide everything you need to know about Fire Emblem Tower Trials – from how to beat and unlock rewards to the rewards themselves.
How to Beat the Tower Trials in FE Engage
In Fire Emblem Engage’s Tower Trials, battles are no different from the ones you encountered during the main storyline. However, there is a twist – each time you start one of these trials, both your opponents and map layout change randomly, irrespective of the difficulty level that has been selected.
When taking part in the Tempest Trials, the difficulty level will be a determining factor that dictates your enemies on the battlefield. Selecting an appropriate level of challenge is, therefore, essential to success.
- Level 1 to 20 Enemies will be from Base Class.
- Levels 21 to 40 Enemies will be from Advanced Class.
Now that you have upgraded your units and leveled up, you can prepare to fight the adversaries at this stage. It is time to adjust the difficulty level when you believe you are fully equipped and ready for battle. As you battle from level 21 to 40, remember to upgrade your units with advanced and unique classes. To secure a win, it is essential that you hone not only your weapons but also acquire advantageous inherited abilities from emblems.
