Great Lord Class Guide for Three Hopes

Unlock the full potential of the Great Lord class in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes! Learn about its stats, abilities, and class action to dominate the battlefield.

Alright, let's dive into the Great Lord class in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes! This is a pretty solid advanced class, and understanding its ins and outs will definitely help you out on the battlefield. Think of it as a strong physical attacker with some neat support capabilities.

Here's a quick rundown of what makes the Great Lord tick:

Stats

When your character promotes to Great Lord, you'll get some nice stat boosts. You're looking at a solid +800 HP, which means you can take more hits. Your Strength gets a +3 boost, making your physical attacks hit harder, and your Speed gets a +6, letting you act more often. You also get a little bump in Luck (+2), Defense (+2), and Charisma (+2). Don't expect any boosts to Magic or Resistance with this class, though.

As for growth rates, you'll see a 30% growth in HP and Strength, a 25% growth in Dexterity, and a 20% growth in Defense. The other stats don't really grow much with this class.

Type	HP	STR	MAG	DEX	SPD	LCK	DEF	RES	CHA
Stat Boost	800	3	–	–	6	2	2	–	2
Growth Rates	30%	30%	0%	25%	0%	0%	20%	0%	15%

Fixed Abilities

The Great Lord comes with two really useful fixed abilities right off the bat:

• Charm: This is fantastic for keeping your allies in the fight. Whenever you defeat an enemy commander, it'll restore HP to all your nearby buddies. Super handy during tough battles!
• Sword Buster Lv 5: This one is a direct damage boost. It gives you a massive advantage against enemies who use swords, increasing your damage against them by a whopping 100%. If you see a lot of sword-wielding enemies, this ability is a lifesaver.

Icon	Ability	Description
	Charm	Restores HP to surrounding allies when an enemy commander is defeated.
	Sword Buster Lv 5	Grants one tier greater advantage against enemies equipped with swords. Increases damage to them by 100%.

Learnable Abilities and Arts

As you level up the Great Lord class, you'll unlock even more skills and special moves. Here's what you can learn:

• 1-star: Swordbreaker - This is basically a more focused version of Sword Buster, making you more effective against sword users.
• 1-star: Thunder Rush - A cool art that lets you unleash a series of lance strikes charged with lightning. Looks awesome and hits hard!
• 2-star: Seasoned Tactics - This ability is great for managing your battalions. It restores your battalion's endurance whenever you defeat an enemy commander, so you can keep using those powerful battalion attacks.
• 2-star: Paraselene - A sweeping attack that hits a wide area. What's really neat about this art is that it has a chance to instantly defeat any regular enemy units (not commanders) it hits. Great for crowd control!
• 3-star: Savior of the Meek - This ability makes it easier to knock back enemies, especially if your Strength is higher than theirs. It's all about controlling the flow of battle and pushing enemies away.

3-star		Savior of the Meek	Makes it easier to knock back enemies in proportion to how much lower an enemy’s Str is.

Class Action

Every class has a unique Class Action, and the Great Lord's is pretty straightforward. You can press a button (it's usually the [Y/X] button, but check your controls!) to use your Class Gauge and throw your lance forward. This gauge fills up over time, so just keep fighting and it'll be ready again.

Here's the cool part: if your Class Gauge is completely full, that lance throw turns into a follow-up attack where you slam your lance into the ground with a powerful blow. It's a great way to deal some extra damage!

Also, remember that any strong attack can be made even stronger by holding down the attack button. This applies to the Class Action too, so if you want to really power up that lance throw, just hold the button!
