Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes has a wide assortment of classes for players to unlock and make use of throughout the game. Unlocking the Dancer class is a slightly more involved process than most, and this guide will explain how to do it.
Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is a hack and slash action RPG developed by Omega Force and published by Nintendo. Players take the role of Mercenary with a grudge "Shez" as he sets out to get revenge on the Ashen Demon. Joining forces with one of the three Houses, players participate in countless battles for their chosen faction as a war rages for the fate of Fodlan.
Finding the Dancer Manual
In order to unlock the Dancer Class, players need to visit a specific point on the War Map during chapter 12 (In Crimson Blaze and Azure Gleam) or chapter 13 (Golden Wildfire).
An NPC in the base camp will mention something about the White Heron Cup when the chapter is reached, to hint at this. The exact location differs from one route to another, but players will need to locate a house on the War Map (usually near the edge of the explorable territory) and interact with it to speak to the resident.
When highlighted, the house will have a Green Star icon with question marks under the rewards section. The resident will offer to show Shez and the others the Dancer Class Book, unlocking the class for use from that point onward.
The Dancer Class
The Dancer is a sword-wielding class with an advantage against tomes, making them fantastic at killing spellcasters. Their ability to use magic means they can also provide healing or AOE damage on command and their class action allows them to perform a spin attack. This spinning attack can be chained by correctly timing the x button input (using the indicator above the character when performing the attack as a guide), providing a buff to the unit and any surrounding allies based on the number of spins chained successfully.
The attack itself is excellent for striking at foes all around the player, and spells like Dark Spike T can provide the Dancer with excellent anti-cavalry options.
With excellent swordplay, group buffs, and the ability to equip and use magic, the Dancer proves an excellent addition to the team for any mission.
Characters like Yuri and Petra can easily access the class as it can be unlocked by mastering thief; Shez and Holst can access it easily via swordmaster, and while spellcasters like Lysithia and Marianne require considerably more time to unlock it, they can more easily access powerful spells to improve its effectiveness.
Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is available for Nintendo Switch.
