Defense/Resistance Oath (Japanese: 守備魔防の信義 Defense/Resistance Loyalty) is a four-tiered passive type C skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Heroes; the individual tiers of the skill are Def/Res Oath 1, Def/Res Oath 2, Def/Res Oath 3, and Def/Res Oath 4 in order from lowest to highest. Def/Res Oath boosts its user's defense and resistance if they start the turn adjacent to an ally; the size of the boosts increases with the skill's tier, with the fourth tier expanding the activation range, allowing the user to move adjacent to any ally within range, and boosting the user's defense and resistance during combat.
