Fire Emblem Three Houses is a much deeper game than you might realize, and developing your characters in unusual ways might lead to them becoming even more powerful. Here’s a list of all Budding Talents in Fire Emblem Three Houses, and how they work.
How They Work
Whenever you’re coaching a student at the start of the week, you might notice stars next to a particular skill that they’re either neutral or weak to. This means that they have a Budding Talent in that skill, and it can only be accessed if you level that skill up enough.
Once you unlock all three stars, they gain a buff associated with that particular skill.
It doesn’t sound like much, but becoming proficient in a new skill and unlocking the Budding Talent can seriously open up new classing possibilities for most of your units.
