This can further help Boucheron to deal damage late in the game, even against physically robust opponents.įor Emblem Rings, Boucheron strongly benefits from Ring of the Lady of the Plains as its Engage Skill Call Doubles will summon units that participate in chain attacks regardless of where the user is, guaranteeing Boucheron additional damage thanks to his personal skill. The skill scales incredibly well however once the Ring of the Princess Exalt is acquired, as the availability of Dual Assist and its upgraded versions massively increases the frequency of chain attacks in general.

This helps him to offset his low strength by being able to wield powerful, heavy weapons that other characters would be slowed down by, and with reasonable accuracy to boot, though this does require constant investment in his equipment for him to keep up. In exchange, he has the highest HP and Build growth in the game and tied highest dexterity growth, with solid growth in speed as well. Despite his visually imposing stature, his strength growth is actually very low for a physical unit, at only 20.
