Type(s) Engage attack First game Engage

Cataclysm (Japanese: ディザスター Disaster) is a skill which debuted in Fire Emblem Engage. It is Emblem Soren's engage attack, and can only be used once per engaged state. When activated, the user deals three consecutive strikes to a foe and foes within a one space radius to them with fire, thunder, and wind magic. As an engage attack, it can have additional effects depending on the unit type of the user.

When a unit engaged with Soren is adjacent to an ally synced or engaged with Emblem Ike, the skill becomes Cataclysm+, an identical version of the skill that also damages foes within a two space radius of the target.
