Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem
Hints and secrets

Triangle Attack

This special attack can be performed by Catria, Palla and Est (the three Pegasus sisters) or Bord, Cord and Barst (the Fighter trio). As long as all three members of the trio are adjacent to the same enemy, they can activate the Triangle Attack by simply choosing to attack.

The members of the trio can be of any class, but the Triangle Attack only works if the initiator is attacking the enemy from melee range (i.e Range of 1).

Training arena stat gains

When a character levels up in the Battle Preparation's training arena (but not the arenas on the map), the number of stats that they gain is slightly fixed. The character's full (personal + class) growth rates are summed up for all stats that aren't yet capped, and for each 100% the character will be guaranteed one stat gain, while the remaining percentage is the chance of the character gaining a further stat point.

Eg. The sum of Marth's full growth rates is 395% (when no stats are capped), which means that he will always gain at least 3 stat ups and has a 95% chance of gaining a fourth stat.

So if you're only concerned about gaining the most number of stat points, the best classes to train as would be Fighter or Warrior (growth rate total of 115%) for males with access to Reclass set B and Cavalier, Paladin, Archer, Sniper, Myrmidon or Swordmaster (growth rate total of 90%) for other characters who can Reclass. The Maturity Drop also helps, boosting a character's growth rate total by 90%.

Silver Card

A character holding onto the Silver Card can buy items for half price (except during Battle Preparations and the Online shop).

It is obtained during the end of Chapter 10 if all the enemy Clerics survived. In Lunatic mode, the Silver Card is replaced with a Vulnerary and cannot be obtained.

VIP Card

The VIP Card allows its holder access to Secret Shops, hidden shops that sell rare items such as stat-boosting items.

It is held by Rickard, who appears during Chapter 5 or 6 (you can recruit him using Julian or just kill him to obtain the card).

Starlight

This spell is required to damage Gharnef, so you can defeat him to obtain the Falchion.

It is obtained by visiting the village in Chapter 21. Note that if you intend to recruit Michalis, you should make Minerva wait on the village first.

Master Seal locations

Master Seals are required to promote characters.
Elysian Whip locations

Elysian Whips are used to promote Pegasus Knights to Falcon Knights.
Ultimate weapons
Starsphere shards
During Chapter 14, Gotoh will repossess all the shards that you've collected. If you managed to obtain all 12 shards, he will restore the Starsphere for you.

Different endings

The Bad Ending occurs if the Starsphere, Lightsphere, Geosphere, Lifesphere and Darksphere were not obtained by the end of Chapter 20. In this case, the game ends at Chapter 20.
If all five spheres were obtained, the Shield of Seals will be restored and the True Ending will be achieved; after Chapter 20 ends, the game will continue until Chapter 24 (the Final Chapter).
