What are the Training Grounds in Three Hopes?

Learn how to train characters, increase their levels, reset them, and acquire new classes in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes' Training Grounds.

The Training Grounds in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is a facility within your Base Camp that allows for character development. Here, you can train pairs of characters to increase their class level and Support Rank, level up characters using gold, reset character levels for free, and acquire new classes.

Training Characters:

Select the “Train” option to assign pairs of characters to train together. Each training session increases their class level and Support Rank. You have a limited number of training slots, which can be increased by upgrading the facility. Each training session consumes one Training Point, with a limited supply per Chapter. All characters in assigned slots train with a single point, so ensure all slots are filled.

Increasing and Resetting Levels:

The “Level Up/Reset” option allows you to spend gold to increase a character’s level. The cost increases with more experience purchased, and the maximum level attainable is capped by your highest-level character. Characters gain stat boosts upon leveling up. While save-scumming for stat gains is possible, there are RNG limits. Resetting a character’s level is free and removes stat gains from leveling, but preserves gains from items, class levels, Support Ranks, etc. Resetting is useful for switching to more prestigious classes to gain more stats upon releveling.

Acquiring New Classes:

The “Acquire Class” option lets you view a character’s class tree. Most classes are universal, but some are gender-specific (e.g., Pegasus Knight, Brawler) and a few are unique to characters like Shez and the House Lords. To change classes, you must master prerequisite classes (indicated by blue lines). Classes are organized into tiers: Beginner (unlocked by default), Intermediate, Advanced, and Master. Advancing requires specific Seals (Intermediate, Advanced, Master) and facility upgrades like the “Advanced Class Certification Exam.” Seals are obtained through merchants, mission rewards, and chests. Higher-tier classes generally become available later in the main questline. It's advisable to save before promoting and use “Mock Battle” to test new classes before committing, as obtained classes can be re-selected without further Seal cost.
