Gimmick: Crests, pieces of Edelgard’s bloodline which occasionally help her out in battle
- Crest of Flames: Occasionally heals 30% HP equal to damage dealt (for example, using Edelgard’s down special at full power heals 9.9% damage)
- Crest of Seiros: Occasionally boosts the power of Edelgard’s specials by 1.4x
- Using specials is the only way to activate the Crest of Seiros
Only one Crest activates at a time (meaning the Crest of Flames can’t activate at the same time as the Crest of Seiros)
