Fire Emblem: Three Houses is a game with a large roster of characters that are all different from each other and have unique personalities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, the game is beatable even if you prioritize recruiting characters that you find cool and then using them in Byleth\u2019s house for your future battles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But if you want to enjoy the gameplay to its full potential, it\u2019s important that you create the best house possible by recruiting only the best characters in the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luckily for you, we\u2019ve created a coherent and factual tier list of the 10 best characters to use in Fire Emblem: Three Houses<\/strong> \u2013 so that you don\u2019t have to worry about making the wrong choices before the game\u2019s time skips. So, let\u2019s get started right away!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Fire Emblem Characters Ranked<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here are the best characters to use in the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Lysithea<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"Lysithea<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Lysithea is arguably the single best character<\/a> that you can recruit in this game. She\u2019s an absolute powerhouse that has incredible magic and speed statistics and can cast two deadly spells on almost any target you direct her towards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only that, but she gains double the combat experience thanks to her Mastermind skill, which helps her level up faster than most characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She has lower health than many other characters as a way to make up for her general power, but it can be compensated after she obtains Lorenz\u2019s annex \u2013 which not only increases the range of her spells but also reduces the damage she takes very often. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the best thing to know here is that she\u2019s not even difficult to recruit if you simply don\u2019t ignore her before the time skip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Felix<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"Best<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Felix is the best swordsman in the game and he easily cuts through any threat that you put in his way. He excels in Speed and Dexterity stats and is used for quick and effective offense options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s a massive room for growth as well if you put him in the Mortal Savant class, and Swordmaster works pretty well with him too. It\u2019s not often that you have a brute character that is effectively quick as well \u2013 but thankfully, Felix is the exception to that rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Mercedes<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Mercedes is often regarded as the best healer in the game, and that is for good reason. She has every tool that is important to support her teammates and her emblem allows her to keep care charges, which really come in handy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only that, but if you give her the right classes, she\u2019s even useful in terms of combat situations should it ever come to that. And she can heal herself too \u2013 eliminating the need for a second healer in the party for her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Petra<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"\/<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Petra has no emblem, but she\u2019s still one of the strongest characters in the game thanks to her speed and offensive statistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And unlike some of the other offensive characters, her health stats are very balanced as well \u2013 making her a reliably durable character to have by your side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of her best abilities is Hunter\u2019s Boon, which lets her deliver +20 critical damage to enemies that have health lower than 50%, so she\u2019s very useful for cleaning the house when you damage the enemy units enough as other characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Shamir<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Shamir can be best described as Fire Emblem: Three House\u2019s \u2018sniper class\u2019 character. She is an expert markswoman who is excellent for long-ranged situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This allows her to both save her health from the sidelines while providing relevant support, and to attack enemies who are at a distance from you before they manage to get closer as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another thing that makes her a great pick is a fact she does not have specific skill requirements to be recruited into Byleth\u2019s house. Simply recruit her by Chapter 7 and you\u2019ll have yourself the best sniper you could ask for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Leonie<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Leonie is a character that can be simultaneously used as an offensive option and someone who provides support to the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She specializes in bows, riding, and lance skills \u2013 which allows her to be great at damaging enemy units \u2013 but her true strengths lie in teamwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her Rivalry skill grants her +2 damage and +2 damage reduction whenever she is next to a male party member, which is a very useful stat boost to have by your side. And if paired with the right character, it can make one hell of a team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Ingrid<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"\/<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Ingrid is one of the most versatile characters on this list, as she does great in almost every role. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, she excels in both Cavalry and airborne units which are a great thing to have by your side in situations that can compromise your battlefield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She\u2019s certainly a little behind when it comes to the strength department, but her skill Lady Knight gives her a boost of +3 might and +5 damage when she is using a Gambit \u2013 which is undoubtedly a blessing to have in your team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Sylvain<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"\/<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Sylvain is not the strongest character there is, but he\u2019s very useful for two things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those two things are that he\u2019s easy to recruit and he has one of the best paths of stats growth. He excels at lance, axe, and riding skills \u2013 which makes him quite versatile in terms of what classes he can fit into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His Philanderer ability gives him +2 damage and damage reduction every time he is next to a female party member, which fits his flirtatious nature very well. So, if your team includes a lot of females \u2013 he\u2019s a must-have character for your house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Lorenz<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Lorenz is definitely not the character you pick for personality early on \u2013 it\u2019s his magic and riding skills that people like him for in the beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His ability, Distinguished House, grants him +2 damage every time a battalion is deployed \u2013 which is a helpful skill to have when the enemy units in the game get more difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have the patience of leveling him up enough that he is useful by the end game \u2013 he is the perfect pick for a Dark Knight to have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Ashe<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Ashe is a character that is often overlooked when it comes to recruiting members for Byleth\u2019s house \u2013 but he\u2019s actually very useful. His damage capabilities are so good, that if you level him up just fine, almost every attack that he inflicts on the enemies will end up being a critical hit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Depending on the weapon you pair him with, he can be an unstoppable character that puts many brutes to shame \u2013 and he\u2019s especially useful as a bow unit if you\u2019re missing one for your party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
