Attack Potency: At least Island level (Comparable to Ophilia Clement, who managed to effortlessly and single-handedly defeat Guardian of the First Flame as early as chapter one,[7] who is, in turn, comparable to Glacis, who could clear away a continental blizzard in a single blow[Note/Explanation 6][8]) | At least Multi-Continent level (Fought and defeated Galdera, The Fallen, at the Journey's End alongside the party[9])

Speed: At least Massively Hypersonic+ (Can react and dodge lightning magic.[2][3][4] Within the setting of the verse, magic explicitly has a source, as nothing begets nothing. Following the chain of cause and effect,[10] magic is derived from the six physical elements, which are the source where the power is drawn from.[11] Which is to say, it moves at speeds comparable to those of natural lightning[Note/Explanation 7]) | At least Massively Hypersonic+ (Far faster than before)

Lifting Strength: At least Class T (Comparable to Ophilia Clement, who is much stronger than the Guardian of the First Flame, who, in turn, dwarfs Flamebearer's other constructs, such as the Shrine Guardian, who can send mountains flying with a wave of its hand[Note/Explanation 8][2][3]) | At least Class T (Stronger than before)

Striking Strength: At least Island level | At least Multi-Continent level

Durability: At least Island level | At least Multi-Continent level

Stamina: Superhuman (Joined Ophilia, Cyrus, Tressa, Olberic, Primrose, Therion, and H'aanit as they entered the Gate of Finis, a place where there was no way out once inside. Where they, once again, fought with Mattias, Yvon, Venomtooth Tiger, Werner, Simeon, Miguel, Darius, and Dragon—all of whom were more formidable than ever before—back-to-back-to-back until eventually facing Galdera, The Fallen himself,[9] whose power was unfathomable, requiring the party to rethink their tactics, rearrange their party, and endure failure over and over. For the sake of future challenges, up until they ultimately defeated him[1])

Range: Extended Melee Range with most weapons, Hundreds of Meters with Bows, higher with magic[2][3]

Standard Equipment: Entirety of Octopath Traveler and Champions of the Continent Inventory.[2][3]

Intelligence: At least Genius in and out of combat (Alfyn is, despite being unexperienced, a highly passionate and capable apothecary[12] who has been studying the craft from a very young age.[13] Alfyn can differentiate between substances used in the making of the medicine by its smell alone, which is what allowed him to notice that Vanessa was a fraudulent apothecary who deliberately gave patients medicine with harmful side effects so that she could sell the remedy at premium prices.[14] He also possesses great social skills, being able to befriend people he has never met before in mere moments and then make friendly banter with them to gather rumors and information about their lives, the locations of items hidden in town, shop discounts, and more.[2] Has been all over Orsterra, aiding Ophilia, Cyrus, Tressa, Olberic, Primrose, Therion, and H'aanit in their quests, becoming acquainted with or otherwise facing against myths, legends, and even gods themselves, throughout which has been imparted with the knowledge from the heavens that makes one a Cleric, Scholar, Merchant, Warrior, Dancer, Apothecary, Thief, Hunter, Starseer, Runelord, Warmaster, and Sorcerer, experiencing many things not many could hope to achieve in a lifetime one after another, like the Kindling,[15] to give a mild example[2])

Weaknesses: Naive and somewhat easy to influence, though he does get better by the end of his storyline.
