If you wish to have characters reach their maximum potential, you can allow characters to reach the maximum level for their unpromoted class before promoting them, as this allows them more level-ups total. Exceptions include Genealogy, where it is 20, Gaiden/ Shadows of Valentia, where it varies by class, and Three Houses, where levels are persistent and give access to new tiers of classes. The level at which a character may first be class changed is usually level 10. In general, a Class Change may only be initiated for a character over a certain level. Edelgard/ Dimitri/ Claude (automatically initiated twice).Dancer (selected unit wins the White Heron Cup).Micaiah (automatically initiated twice).The choice to promote Wallace is optional in Lyn Hard Mode, though, and can be avoided on normal difficulty via a glitch.) Wallace (Wallace's promotion is forced in Lyn Normal Mode as it serves as a tutorial.This style of class changing has never been used as the predominant method in any of the games.Įvent-based class changing usually initiates a class change for specific characters throughout storyline events, with the player having no say in the timing.Ī list of all characters which receive event-based class changes: Used in: FE9, FE10 Event-based Class Change
However it does have the drawback that the experience gained after level 20 is, in effect, lost (as the unit doesn't get a level up bonus for it, and the unit could have been promoted at level 20 with a Master Seal/Crown, provided the player had one). This has the advantage of the location-based systems in that promotions are not limited to the number of items available, and avoids the disadvantage that characters need to be in a certain location to promote. The unit does not get an additional level up for reaching 21. At the point it would have leveled up to level 21, it instead initiates Class Change. In localized versions, instead of an unpromoted unit ceasing to gain experience once it has reached level 20, it continues to gain experience. This style of Class Change is used in Fire Emblem 9 and 10, but only in the localized versions- this method did not exist in the Japanese versions, which instead used item based promotion (see above). However, due to the size of FE4's maps, it can take some time for a unit to reach it, unless one of the teleportation staves is used. This has an advantage over the Shrine style of locative class changing in that there is a home castle on every map. In Fire Emblem 4, a character must enter the Home Castle and choose an option in the castle menu in order to change class. On the other hand, a unit cannot promote at any time like it can in an item-based system - one first needs to go to a map which contains a shrine. In Fire Emblem 2, in order to class change, a character must visit one of several Shrines spread throughout the world map.Ĭompared to the item-based systems, this has the advantage in that potentially every character can be promoted, whereas with item-based systems promotions are limited to the amount of promotion items you can obtain. Used in: FE5, FE7, FE8, FE9, FE10, FE11, FE12, FE13, FE14, FE17 Location-based Class Change Shrine In Fire Emblems 8 - 14, it is the Master Seal (although for FE10, an additional two items are added, for those wishing to promote second-tier units: the Master Crown, and the Holy Crown, used exclusively for one character in particular to promote her to final tier: Mist). In Fire Emblem 7, this is the Earth Seal. In Fire Emblem 5, this item is the Knight Proof. It is the same as the multiple item style, except only the one item is used for promotions. This is the most common method of class change. Used in: FE1, FE3, FE6, FE7, FE8, FE16 Single Item This method returns in Three Houses when a unit reaches a certain level to qualify for a given Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced or Master Class (or to access the Dark Mage, Dark Bishop and DLC classes). For example, Fire Emblem 7's Elysian Whip will let Pegasus Knights and Wyvern Riders class change, but not any other classes.
There are several items in the game world which will class change a character if they use them, but they only work on certain classes. The original method of initiating class change.
