Spellbane Yumi



Spellbane Yumi (破魔矢, ) is a special weapon of the Bow variety, with an inherit Wingslayer attribute. It is the signature weapon of the priestess princess of the Hoshidan royal family Sakura.

Spellbane Yumi is unlocked along with its wielder Sakura after clearing Chapter 6.

=History= In Fire Emblem Fates, the Spellbane Yumi is an uncommon specialist Rank C bow weapon designed to take out any Unit who was carrying a magic foci (Scrolls and Tomes) and only these units, as the weapon has severe damage drop off to other weapons. That being said, in Fates, bow users have a weapon disadvantage to tome/scroll units.

Gameplay
As a weapon with six available slots, the Spellbane Yumi allows an amount of flexibility with what weapon attributes to forge into the bow. However, with a natural Wingslayer slot for its seventh slot, the Spellbane Yumi forces players to forge only one foreign slayer-type weapon attribute to the bow.

As it is a personal weapon, it can be upgraded by creating Mastery and Sanctuary Crests, drastically increasing the weapon's Might, first to 240, then to 720.


 * To obtain the Spellbane Yumi's Scroll, which is needed for Sakura's Mastery Crest, the player must first clear Story Mode, then the History Mode map Noble Lady of Caelin, as it is offered as a S-Rank Clear prize for one of the Distortion Battles on said map. After creating Sakura's Mastery Crest, the True Power weapon attribute will be unlocked after 10,000 kills, negating any Might reduction from the player putting a foreign slayer-type weapon attribute via reforging, as well as increasing the Might of this weapon to 240.
 * To obtain the Spellbane Yumi's Opus, which is needed for Sakura's Sanctuary Crest, the player must first purchase either the Season Pass or the Fire Emblem Fates DLC pack, then clear the History Mode map Land of Gods, as it is offered as a S-Rank clear prize for one of the Distortion Battles on said map. After creating Sakura's Sanctuary Crest, the Divine Favor weapon attribute will overwrite the True Power attribute, even if True Power is not yet unlocked for the Spellbane Yumi, as well as increasing the Might of this weapon to 720.
