Type(s) Passive (Type B) First game Heroes

Attack/Defense Link (Japanese: 攻撃守備の連携 Attack/Defense Cooperation) is a three-tiered passive type B skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Heroes; the individual tiers of the skill are Atk/Def Link 1, Atk/Def Link 2, and Atk/Def Link 3 in order from lowest to highest. When its user is involved in a movement-based assist skill, Atk/Res Link boosts the attack and defense of both the user and their ally; the size of the boosts increases with the skill's tier.
