Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes features a wide roster of characters to use in battle, and each of these characters can have a class. You also have the ability to change your class, and you’ll notice that certain classes have a blue arrow icon when changing classes. This may leave you wondering what the blue icon is and what it means when changing class in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes.

How to tell the best class for characters in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes?

When changing classes at the Training Instructor, the blue icon represents the best class for that character (or, at least, the one they prefer), in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes. This class typically meshes with that character’s stats and playstyles, making it an optimal choice when changing classes.

Should I use the blue icon class?

While Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes suggests that you use this class, you do not necessarily have to change to this class. The other classes you can unlock are also viable choices and can lead to interesting playstyles for that character. In addition, you can swap classes at your base camp, so you are free to experiment and try out different classes on different characters.

We recommend trying out the other classes, as well as the blue icon class, to see which you prefer. While this suggestion is usually your best option, you may run into battles where that particular class doesn’t perform as well, so having backup options is always a good idea.
