Class Types (Fire Emblem Warriors)

The following is a list of the classes used by playable characters and officers found in Fire Emblem Warriors. Like in the home series, most classes have an advanced counterpart which can be attained when certain conditions are met.

Classes
Classes are units with a full moveset with an identified fighting style, most of which are from the Fire Emblem franchise. Characters of the same class share almost all the same moves, but with musou attacks. For example all Paladins fight like Xander.

All classes have a single weapon type within the game.

Classes from the Fire Emblem series use map sprites taken from the 3DS Fire Emblem titles.

Playable Units

 * Cavalier and Paladin - Mounted knights that appear in every Fire Emblem title. For this game, they exclusively wield swords.
 * Great Knight - A mounted unit equipped with an axe.
 * Pegasus Knight and Falcon Knight - A Flying class in every Fire Emblem title that wields a lance.
 * Wyvern Rider and Wyvern Lord - Flying units equipped with an axe.
 * Myrmidon and Swordmaster - Infantry units that specialize with swords.
 * Archer and Sniper - Infantry units that specialize with bows.
 * Cleric and War Cleric  - Infantry units that specialize with axes.
 * Tactician and Grandmaster - Infantry units that specialize with tomes.
 * Manakete - A unit that uses dragonstones as their main weapon. Generic officer variants are always in dragon form and have less moves as a result.

Enemy/NPC Units

 * Soldier and Halberdier - Infantry units that specialize with lances.
 * Knight and General - Armored units that appear in every Fire Emblem game, they specialize with lances.
 * Mage and Sage - Infantry units that specialize with tomes. Many of their attacks are taken from the Tactician class.

These units are basic soldiers without a class or a real moveset. They function the same as privates from the Dynasty Warriors series and are only threatening in large numbers.


 * Human - Exclusive to Fire Emblem Warriors, infantry privates equipped with swords, lances, or axes.
 * Monster - Exclusive to Fire Emblem Warriors, infantry privates equipped with claws.
