Double attack threshold (Path of Radiance)
As commonplace in Fire Emblem Games, a unit in Path of Radiance attacks twice if the difference between its speed and the enemy's speed reaches a threshold. Fire Emblem Wiki states that this threshold is 4.
In Chapter 15, I have the following Marcia (speed = 22)
trying to attack Muarim (speed = 18).
Even though she reached the threshold (4), she won't attack twice. Why?
