1. Y’shtola

On this article, we will focus on Thancred.
FFBE Thancred Guide:
We begin with Thancred’s TMR – Follower’s Oath. We think this is an okay TMR, but there are better TMRs out there that you should be farming for. A great example is the Dual Wield (Zidane), and even Snow’s TMR – Champion’s Belt (Increase ATK and DEF by +30)

As a free unit, I think if you don’t have a good tanker in your team, Thancred will very much fit the bill. Foresight allows him to increase his DEF further for five turns. Partner it with Flash so he will be targeted, thereby tanking the enemy attacks all to this unit.
It just works perfectly though, as even if he’s targeted, his moves – Perfect Dodge and Feather step will allow him to dodge it. Plus, even if he was not able to dodge it, the DEF buff from Foresight will surely aid you.

FFBE Thancred Evaluation:
Certainly, Thancred is a good unit that serves the purpose of tanking for the team. What’s missing? Well, he can’t cover. We think if only he has a cover ability, even at 5-stars he will be a worthy addition to any beginning team.
