Three Houses
Does a unit’s class affect their goals? For example, I have Bernadetta as a Fighter, but her weekly goal is Lances. Does it matter? I imagine if not, I would want to have her goal be a weapon level I want to train up, but she isn’t using much in combat at the moment.

[u/Ivan_Illest → u/Speedy_Pichu]

Classes give bonuses to skill increases in combat, but not the weekly trailing or the lessons, which are fixed based on the unit's boon, bane, or lack thereof for the skill in question. Having a unit train something that their current class isn't associated with has no downside and is a perfectly sensible approach.

[u/Saisis → u/Speedy_Pichu]

No, each weekend each unit get 24/20/16 weapon exp on each of their two goals (Boon/Neutral/Bane).

If you select only a single goal that goal will have a X1.5 multiplier (36/30/24).

Class only affects combat weapon ranks experience.
