Bridal Cordelia is one of the most infamous archers in the game due to her high Attack and Speed. These are her two most important stats, with Speed taking priority on her optimal Firesweep build, and Attack being better on the Brave set. Cordelia’s defenses are already low, particularly if using Life and Death. Her HP, Defense and Resistance largely do not matter since she should not be taking damage for any reason, as she cannot counterattack with her Firesweep Bow.
Boons
-
+ATK: Attack is Cordelia’s second best boon, and while it works best with her Brave Bow set, it’s good for both of her most popular builds. With her Brave Bow set, the extra Attack from an +ATK IV is multiplied as she hits many times.
-
+SPD: Speed is her best boon and strongest on her Firesweep Set. It helps ensure Cordelia doubles against faster foes and works in tandem with Chill Spd.
Neutral
-
HP: It’s not recommended to reduce HP since it affects both of Cordelia’s defenses.
Banes
-
-RES: She outright KO’s most mages without taking damage, making this stat mostly useless.
- -DEF: With her Firesweep set, she won’t be taking counter-attack damage. Defense is mostly useless, but a -DEF bane loses vs. Faye.

Sacred Seal: Quickened Pulse / Attack +3 / Speed +3
This set made Bridal Cordelia infamous, combining her awesome offensive stats with the ability to avoid all counterattacks. She is expensive to build, but packs a lot of power, and performs exceptionally well in nearly all cases. Truly, her and her Firesweep Bow are a match made in heaven. Both +Atk and +Spd can be used with this set, but it works better with +Spd.
Firesweep Bow is the most important part of this build, and cannot be substituted. Life and Death increases her offensive stats, and is preferred to Swift Sparrow as she cannot be counter-attacked on her defensive stats anyway. Quickened Pulse lets her fire a special off on her first attack, but can be replaced by a stat boost skill if necessary.
A two-turn Special is required: Both have similar performances, but Moonbow helps vs. high-Defense targets, the ones she generally struggles on. Chill Spd is also important: It gives her the ability to double and KO many of the faster units in the game who can survive one hit. Swordbreaker is the next best thing as many of them are sword-users. Cancel Affinity is for slaying Raven tome + Triangle Adept users, but is more of a niche pick.
Spd Smoke gives her many of the same effects as Chill Spd, but against other enemies. Smoke skills are great on her, but Hone skills are a good budget alternative. Her Assist skill depends on team-mates, but Reposition is a great catch-all. Rally Atk/Spd comes naturally on her, and is better for Blade tome users.

Sacred Seal: Attack +3 / Quickened Pulse
Her Brave Bow set is cheaper to build and still boasts an excellent matchup spread. She is very capable of quad attacking due to her high base Speed, and has the raw power to KO nearly anything that can’t counterattack her. Like her Firesweep Bow set, she works with both +Atk and +Spd boons, but does better with +Atk.
Swift Sparrow is the A slot skill of choice, as it gives her an offensive boost while maintaining her defenses. Death Blow and Fury are good alternatives that give her more upfront power or defensive merit. Attack +3 is the best Seal choice, giving her a total of 12 damage if she quad attacks. Quickened Pulse can be used with Moonbow to focus on one-attack burst. Draconic Aura is the strongest choice, and activates on every quad attack she performs. Luna is a decent alternative for beating high-defense tanks or units running Distant Defense.
Chill Def is excellent, increasing her damage output significantly, especially if she scores a quad-attack. Swordbreaker is the next best thing as many of them are sword users. Spd Smoke does the same thing for her, helping her to sweep through enemy teams. Her Assist skill depends on team-mates, but Reposition is a great catch-all. Rally Atk/Spd comes naturally on her, and is better for Blade tome users.
Introduction
Bridal Cordelia is a seasonal variant of Cordelia, a unit hailing from Fire Emblem Awakening. Cordelia does away with her pegasus in favor of a bow, and becomes one of the strongest archers in the game. Her role is all-out offensive attacker with no defensive merit, especially with her optimal Firesweep Bow set.
Just like her lance version, Bridal Cordelia has 35/35 Attack and Speed. This makes her an exceptional offensive unit capable of dealing high damage and doubling often. With her weapon of choice being the Firesweep Bow, she does not even fear counterattacks that might cripple other ranged attackers.
Despite her awesome strength, she is not cheap to build and requires rare skills like Chill Spd and Firesweep Bow to reach her peak potential. Most may not have the resources to build her to her fullest potential, but those that do can enjoy the power of an offensive unit with few real downsides.
Strengths
Incredible Attack and Speed.
Cordelia boasts stellar offensive stats at 35 Attack and Speed. She has long set the benchmark for physical and ranged attackers alike. High Speed is particularly important, as it enables her Firesweep Set to double-attack more foes. Cordelia works well with a boon in either of these stats, and with either her Firesweep or Brave sets.
Does not fear Distant Counter.
Being able to wield the Firesweep Bow means that Cordelia does not fear units that carry Distant Counter, a skill commonly seen in the Arena. While she cannot outright KO many of the tanks who run it, she can deal massive damage and lower their HP below important Guard, Quick Riposte, or Wary Fighter thresholds. Being able to avoid Distant Counter sets Bridal Cordelia in a tier above most mages and dagger-users.
Weaknesses
Meager defenses.
36 HP combined with 19/22 Defense and Resistance make Cordelia extremely frail. She is not unlike other ranged attackers in that regard, but unlike them she enjoys running Life and Death. Having a Firesweep Bow shortcuts her low defenses somewhat since foes cannot retaliate against her. She can require some team support to get her off the frontline once she's attacked.
Weak to many debuffing skills.
Low defenses do mean that Cordelia can easily fall prey to all of the targeted debuffs within the game. Panic Ploy exploits her low HP. Attack and Speed Ploy exploit her low Resistance to hamper her offenses. Chill Spd is very likely to hit Cordelia due to her high Speed. Worst of all is Gunnthra, who can completely cripple Cordelia with Chilling Seal.
Team Options
Counters
Bridal Cordelia is a special case, as she runs the Firesweep Bow, she can attack whoever she wishes without fear of counterattack. In this way, it can be said that she has no true counters. In reality though, she fears targets she can’t kill. Her list of counters is heavily dependent on skill choice.
-
Wary Fighter users: She can’t OHKO them, and will only charge their powerful specials for their turn. Effie, Zephiel, and Winter Chrom are three units that commonly run the skill, and can easily KO Bridal Cordelia the next round.
-
Steady Breath users: This skill is a nightmare for Bridal Cordelia, making it harder for her to KO units and easier for them to charge strong specials. Brave Ike is the most notable mention, as he’ll have an Aether ready for Cordelia next turn and Urvan to significantly reduce her damage. Dorcas, Corrin-F, and Adult Tiki are all common Steady Breath users.
- Debuffers: They target all of Bridal Cordelia’s relevant stats, and make it hard for her to sweep. Gunnthra utterly cripples her, but Hector, Bartre, and Arden can do the same with Panic Ploy. She must also avoid other Ploy skill users, such as Arvis and Lute.

Basically this does a ton of damage since she has a good speed stat, with glimer it will make that in 2 turns you can take down basically anyone, fury will help with doing more damage, desperations combos with fury, savage blow helps on silkening the other enemies, and poison strike finishes them off even if they survive, rally atk/spd is to help allied united in case cordelia cant do anything.

Bridal Cordelia is basically the glass cannon on my main team, and she kills most units with average/low defense or speed. Firesweep bow is great for her because it protects her from attacks (which she can’t survive thanks to her pretty awful defenses) and allows her to attack with out the fear of counterattacks or distant counter. Life and Death was an obvious choice because her bulk isn’t great to begin with, and she wants to increase her offenses to perform well. The b slot is open since she doesn’t need desperation, so I put in Escape route so that she can escape from any fight that she might die from (which is often). Spd smoke helps her out speed and double any fast opponents after she battles, and savage blow is nice for weakening units she can’t finish off in one hit(like high defense armors). Also, while many people use moonbow on offensive units like BCordelia, I use Luna because she does more damage with it, and it still has a relatively quick charge time. Luna lets her cut through units with high defenses and score OHKOs that are impossible without a special.

Highly offensive B!Cordelia build.
Should be only and ONLY played as Player phase unit.
Brave bow+LaD+Desperation kit means that she will ORKO her opponent or got ORKO'ed instead.
She has that "Kill or get Killed" stat, with defense at 14 and resistance at 17.
This godly awful defensive stats is offset with her offensive stats, which is 52 atk and 35 spd.
Luna improves her ability to kill her enemy in 1 engagement.
C slot is versatile. Breath of Life is convenient in sustaining allies'.

With this set up Bridelia can easily enter quading mode, where she will kill any unit that can retaliate, expect for really bulky units on def tiles.
Baiting low attack units with her it my method of dropping her health or you could also use a pseudo healer to drop her health.
Life and Death was picked to maximize her damage and speed, I preferred an attack boon because speed won't matter as much when she is quading mode, speed will matter if you're attacking a unit who cannot retaliate. Furry could also be used if you want to be able to drop her health safely.
Desperation was picked because it is part of her main engine,
Def Smoke was picked in order to help her deal with bulkier units, around 45-50 def is when she starts to encounter problems. Not to many units reach these levels of defense without being easily countered by magic. Threaten Def is a good budget skill, but C skill is always your choice.
Brash Assault seal is the second half of her engine.
Problems- While using Life and Death does boost her offensive stats by quite a bit, he defensive stats are Terrible as a result (14 Def & 14 Res with an +Atk -Res Bridelia). These poor defensive stats will make near useless on enemy phase.
Raven Tome Users will always be a problem for her, unless in quad mode. Thankfully there are only a hand full of Raven Tome users out there, Robin, S!Camilla, occasionally H!Henry and LA!Lyn.
Vantage is a pain for her, if active. Vantage user will mostly kill her when it is active.
In Closing- This Bridal Cordelia build is effective with only a few weaknesses. She has high offensive capabilities, but defensive capabilities. Raven tome user will check her, but Raven Tome users aren't too common. This build will help you to kill any units that can retaliate, most meta units.

She's a machine! ? Since I pulled Faye and used her to inherit her Firesweep Bow to Bridal Cordelia, I barely use my Brave Lyn. Bridal Cordelia with Spd+ boon is so much better!
