1-6 Raise the Standard

Within Exalted, promoting your units is encouraged to be done earlier than in the original game.

Maximum stats are lower than usual while promotion bonuses are increased.

In the next chapter from now, you can freely purchase master seals in the shop at a much reduced price.

Do not hesitate to promote each unit if you can avoid it. From this point onward, you will be facing higher tier foes.

Of course, it's still wise to reserve some bonus experience to take advantage of stats reaching their maximum before promotion.

Enemies that have siege tomes and long ranged staves cannot move and take their action at the same time.

Take advantage of this by staying outside of their range and forcing them to move.

Alternatively; being in range of them to prevent movement, allowing you to easily dispatch them on the following turn!

Do not be overly concerned with conserving gold between maps. Each one should provide a decent amount of gold to be spent within the next chapter.

Several units have had significant changes to their availability. Don't be too afraid to give any specific unit investment or resources with this in mind.

Cursed weapons will inflict two stacks of Poison to the defending unit when attacked by light magic. Poison is capped at three stacks.

When two skills are listed for a combo, either skill can be equipped to grant its bonus. Some combos can occur with a unit's personal skill for easier access.

Boss units with the Veteran skill will ignore penalties that some weapons have while countering, including brave weapons not being able to attack consecutively.
