Only one variation of Mae is currently available in Heroes, based on her Echoes: Shadows of Valentia incarnation. Mae is one of the characters added to the game in the Rite of Shadows update, and became available for summoning by players on May 15, 2017.

Mae can still contribute later in the game, primarily because she learns Seraphim, which is an excellent offensive spell against late-game enemies, but her competition at the time is stronger. For these reasons, many players end up using Mae mostly in the early game, when her offensive contributions are the most appreciated, and then relying on her much less later on. Mae can also find it difficult to gain experience because of her low movement, which will remain a problem after promotion as well. Even Boey, whose promotion requires a high level, can promote at level 12 instead. Mae requires level 14 to promote, which is very late in comparison to other units. Mae's main issues are her very low defenses and her late promotion level her low defenses can be mitigated to some degree by equipping defensive equipment such as the Leather Shield. Mae is one of few units with access to the Silence spell Deen can learn it as a Sage, but he is much better in physical classes, and Shade has it at base level, but she is a DLC unit. The most useful of the three is Silence, which can be used on enemy Arcanists and Cantors to prevent them from summoning monsters and using spells. Recover has situational usage as a powerful healing spell, but Celica and Genny are both in the same army as Mae and can both heal, so Mae will rarely end up doing it. Swords will seldom be useful, since Mae is too frail to survive most enemy attacks, so she generally should not enter combat at 1-range one exception is when she fights Witches, as they have low defense and attack using magic. Without the player investing resources into Boey, Mae's offense will be consistently superior to his thanks to these advantages.Īfter promotion, Mae gains access to swords, Recover, and at level 6, Silence. This allows Mae to deal great amounts of damage throughout the game, and she is especially useful in the early game, as she is able to weaken enemies from a distance. She learns Aura at level 9 and Seraphim at level 14, both great offensive spells. However, Mae's offensive power is high she starts with access to Thunder, which is a better offensive spell than Boey's Fire. Her defensive stats are very low and she requires constant protection, especially on higher difficulties. Mae is available in Celica's army from the start of Celica's route. This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience.

Aside from her initial recruitment, Mae has no other story role or dialogue. She resides in Nomah's Mila Shrine with Celica. Mae is one of the first characters to join Celica's group. 2 Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia.
