Mercenary Class in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes
Mercenaries are intermediate classes in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes that have high HP, strength, and speed stats. This makes them great offensive units. They can also withstand both physical and magical attacks as they don’t have any particular weaknesses.
Mercenaries can take on anyone no matter what weapon they use. Due to their versatility, enemies usually swarm a single mercenary to overwhelm them with attacks. Make sure you have units with high defense to accompany and protect mercenaries to counter this tactic.
