Bound Hero Battle: Ephraim & Eirika
Team Compositions
When facing Eirika and Ephraim Bond Battle Infernal, many team compositions employing several plans exist. This demonstration involves one of the more easily-attainable setups.
- Unit 1 - Dancer/Singer (Recommended Level: 1+)
Any level Dancer/Singer of any type will do. They will not enter combat at all.
- Unit 2 - Dancer/Singer (Recommended Level: 40+)
Any Dancer/Singer of any type will suffice, but they will need to take one exchange from the Sword Cavalier. This will not be an issue for Ninian or Azura, but Olivia should have a minimum speed of 29 and a combined sum for HP and DEF of 58.
- Unit 3 - Repositioner or Dancer/Singer (Recommended Level: 1+)
They will not engage in combat. Repositioner has the benefit of being able to be danced and reposition if something goes awry, but if you follow this guide, you should be fine. If your "Unit 4" needs a Hone Atk boost, this unit needs to be the one that does it.
- Unit 4 - Brave Bow Archer (Recommended Level: 40+)
Any archer with Brave Bow will suffice (Niles may not reach minimum ATK strength). In combat, the archer needs to reach 48 ATK no special, 45 ATK with Moonbow, or 43 ATK with Luna + Quickened Pulse.
- Brave Bow - 4 Mt
- Brave Bow+ - 7 Mt
Neutral ATK Archers:
- Bridal Cordelia - 35 ATK
- Leon - 34 ATK
- Innes - 33 ATK
- Lyn - Brave Lady: 33 ATK
- Jeorge - 32 ATK
- Takumi - 32 ATK
- Clarisse - 31 ATK
- Gordin - 31 ATK
- Klein - 31 ATK
- Virion - 31 ATK
Useful A Passives
- Death Blow 3 - +6 ATK (Skill Inheritance from Klein, Effie, Ursula)
- Life and Death 3 - +5 ATK (Skill Inheritance from Hana, Jaffar, Minerva, Zephiel)
- Swift Sparrow 2 - +4 ATK (Skill Inheritance from Spring Lucina, Katarina, Lyn - Brave Lady)
- Attack +3 - +3 ATK (Skill Inheritance from Cherche, Gordin, Tobin)
Many other useful A Passives exist such as: Sturdy Blow, Fury, Mirror Strike, etc.
Useful Seals:
Summoner Support:
- Provides up to an extra +2 ATK.
In Action:
For example, if we use a neutral 5* Gordin, we will have his 31 ATK plus his native Brave Bow+ Mt for an extra 7 ATK. Placing him at 38 ATK. If we use a Hone Atk 3 Repositioner, this will place him at 42 ATK in combat. Tack on the ATK seal, and he will be at 43 ATK. Because we are already using an Attack +1 seal, we will need to attain 2 more ATK + Moonbow special or 5 more ATK with no regards for the special. This can be easily fulfilled with the A passives described above. If we attain Summoner Support S and Atk + 3 on him, he no longer needs to worry about a special activation. A stronger archer allows for more breathing room in terms of ATK strength.
Turn 1:
- Position Unit 1, 2 and 4 on the edge of the enemy attack range.
- Unit 2 should be in the southern edge block.
- Place Unit 3 next to Unit 4.
Turn 2:
- Reposition Unit 4 towards the group of three enemies.
- Use Unit 4 to kill Thief first.
- Move Unit 2 inside the Red Cavalry's attack range and dance Unit 4.
- Use Unit 4 to kill Blue Tome enemy.
- Move Unit 1 to Unit 4 and dance him once more.
- Move Unit 4 up and attack the Green Cavalry.
- Final setting: Unit 1, 3, 4 outside of enemy attack range.
- Unit 2 inside of Red Cavalry's attack range.
Turn 3:
- Can vary. If Unit 3 can finish off Red Cavalry, proceed to do so and then use Unit 4 to kill Eirika and retreat from Ephraim.
- Otherwise, use Unit 4 to kill Red Cavalry and safely retreat from Eirika and Ephraim.
Turn 4:
- If Eirika is alive, kill her with Unit 4 (and dancer do-overs) and retreat from Ephraim.
- Otherwise, kill Ephraim and run is over.
Turn 5:
- If you could not kill both Eirika and the Red Cavalry on the same turn, then this turn is needed for defeating Ephraim.
Final Notes: Congrats, you have bested Infernal Bond Battle Eirika and Ephraim!

Niles: 4* Lvl 40, Distant Def 2 seal. PA Olivia: Lvl 40, Iceberg, Spur Res 2, Atk Ploy 2 seal, Dancer's Fan + Res. Roderick: 4* Lvl 40, Atk Plus 1 seal. Gaius Lvl 36 + 3, Poison Strike 2, New Moon, Spur Atk 1 seal. Follow PM1's YT video on how to initiate battle. Niles subbing for Felicia. Roderick subs for Clive. PA Olivia subs for regular Olivia. Gaius subs for Matthew.
All Lvl 40 at 4 stars or greater. Brave Lyn, PA Olivia, and Frederick take care of everything. "Azama" is just a place-holder. Lyn was wearing Res Plus. I was using Res Plus 2 but Res Plus 1 is probably fine. Frederick was wearing HP Plus 3. PA Olivia has: Iceberg, Spur Res 2, and Dancer's Fan plus Res. She was wearing Spur Def 1. "Azama" was wearing Spur Atk 1 but you can have Anna, Sharena, regular Olivia, etc. in his place.
3 units are enough for this map. Use Eirika buffs Soleil, then Azura helps she makes 3 attack this turn and kills green mage, dagger, red horse during 1st turn. And finish this as way you like.
Xander is just there to provide Hone Cavalry buff. He did ending up chipping Blue Mage for me. But obviously any cavalier will do and even a healer without offensive weapon will do.
Typical Reinhardt setup with Lancebreaker. My B!Lyn is unbuilt because she is unmerged which is in turn because I am poor.
Whether through Quickened Pulse or merges, Reinhardt can OHKO Thief. That would be a good start. Dance and Reposition out. (Need to break wall beforehand.) Vanilla bow Lyn can ORKO either mages but only one due to the damange she takes. That’s why I ended up needing S!Xander to chip Blue Mage. Healing Lyn back up works. Having a non-joke unit to kill a mage works too. But Hone Cavalry support is required if your units aren’t heavily merged or specially built in some way.
With Ephraim and Erika left, it’s all too straightforward. But be sure to avoid tanking hits from Erika before the other groups of enemies are cleared. Erika has Drag Back which can easily screw you over.
*First step/ Chrom take damage
*then use Nowi for bait
*after kills last units with Cordelia / danse her or Nowi for finish the job
