How to Open Locked Doors in Fire Emblem Three Houses

Not only are the battlefields filled with enemies to do battle with in Fire Emblem Three Houses, but you may come across locked doors from time to time that you won’t have access to unless you have a special item on you or by having a Thief in your party.

You’ll need an item called a Door Key which can be purchased from the Item Shop at the Marketplace in exchange for some money. Another way to obtain one of these Door Keys is by defeating an enemy that happens to be standing by the locked door.

These Rogues or Thieves won’t always have a key on them, but if you kill them, you might get lucky and obtain one in a drop.

And the last way, as I mentioned before, is by having a unit on your team that has the Thief class. By using them, they can open up locked doors (and also chests) that you find during battle.

That’s everything you need to know about how to open locked doors in Fire Emblem Three Houses.
