Rapport
Rapport is a mechanic introduced in Fire Emblem Shadows. By increasing a disciple's Rapport rank, the player can gain various rewards, such as Crystals, disciple-specific Medals, or character content up to a rank of 27. Rapport is similar in concept to the Support mechanics found in other Fire Emblem games, with points symbolizing the bond between player and character awarded after every match. Initially, Rapport ranks only went up to 12, but were increased to 27 on February 25th, 2026, in the 1.5.0 update.

Mechanics
Rapport is both character and side specific, meaning every disciple has separate Rapport ranks for the Light and Shadow sides. It is gained by completing matches with that character, awarding 15 Rapport points for every match. If "Either Side" is selected when starting a match, Rapport point gain is doubled to 30. Additionally, matches above a character-specific rank of 19 award an additional 20% on the amount of Rapport points gained.
Whether one wins or loses the match is irrelevant, as it only needs to be completed to obtain Rapport points.
Rank requirements
Rapport has a maximum rank of 27.
| Rank | Point requirement | |
|---|---|---|
| Light | Shadow | |
| 1 | 0 | 0 |
| 2 | 10 | 5 |
| 3 | 90 | 45 |
| 4-27 | 100 | 50 |
Rapport rewards
At rank 2, each Side awards a "First Meeting" dialogue, offering a short introduction of the disciple. Only rank 2 of the Light side awards a Solo Battle which functions as a short tutorial of that disciple's EX skill. Rank 5 of both sides gives a "Building Bonds" dialogue, which gives a more in-depth look at a character.
Medal and Crystal rewards can only be received once, whereas dialogues can be viewed multiple times, and the Solo Battle can also be repeated, though it als only gives rewards once.
| Rank | Reward |
|---|---|
| 2 | 20x Medals First Meeting (Disciple of Light / Disciple of Shadow) Solo Battle (20x Medals, 200x Crystals) |
| 3-4 | 20x Medals, 100x Crystals |
| 5 | 20x Medals, 100x Crystals Building Bonds (Path of Light / Path of Shadow) |
| 6-11 | 20x Medals, 100x Crystals |
