Hoshido Noble: Advanced Classes 1

Learn about the Hoshido Noble class in Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright! Discover its stat growths, weapon proficiencies, and unique skills like Dragon Ward and Hoshidan Unity.

Alright, let's talk about the Hoshido Noble class in Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright! This is a really solid advanced class for your royal characters, especially if you're playing Birthright. Think of them as the Hoshidan royal counterpart to the Nohr Noble. They're all about being strong and tough, using katanas, rods, and those awesome dragonstones.

Here's a quick rundown of their stat growth rates. Keep in mind these are the chances for them to grow when they level up:

As you can see, they lean into Strength and Defense, which makes them pretty durable on the battlefield. Their Magic growth is a bit low, so while they can use staves for healing, they won't be your primary healer unless you've invested heavily in their Magic stat through other means.

When it comes to what they can use, they're quite versatile:

Now, let's look at their unique skills. These are what really make the Hoshido Noble stand out:

Dragon Ward is a neat defensive buff for nearby allies, giving them a chance to take less damage. It's a nice little support ability. But the real star here is Hoshidan Unity. Seriously, this skill is fantastic! It gives you a flat 10% boost to all your skill activation rates. This means skills like Sol, Astra, Pavise, and even your own Dragon Fang are more likely to trigger. It makes your units much more reliable and potent in combat.

In _Revelations_, the Hoshido Noble is a strong choice, focusing on Strength and Defense. While they can offer some support healing with rods, their lower Magic growth means you're better off leaving dedicated healing to units with higher Magic. Overall, it's a very powerful and well-rounded class that can dish out damage and take a hit, especially with Hoshidan Unity making all your other skills more effective.
