Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes - Thief Intermediate Class Guide

Thief Class in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes

Thieves are physical combatants who double as utility units in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes. Their high speed allows them to attack targets multiple times and gives them good evasion. Thieves can steal items and gold from enemies as well as open locked chests and doors. They are also adept at finishing off weakened foes. Because of the class’ low health, it is recommended to have tanky units cover them as they advance through the map.

Thieves are known for their high speed. It is recommended to have Brigands or Armored Knights cover thieves because of the class’ low HP and defence.
