Fire Emblem: Three Houses Cindered Shadows DLC Reveals War Cleric/Monk and Trickster Classes

Nintendo and Intelligent Systems are continuing their quest to reveal new features of Fire Emblem: Three Houses’ Cindered Shadows DLC offering new details and screenshots.

The info was revealed as usual on the official Twitter account (sources: 1,2,3). 

We learn that each of the new character introduced in Cindered Shadows will have a newly-added class for a total of four. 

If you clear episode 1 of the DLC, these classes will unlock in the main game as well. You can take the qualification test for them at level 20 or higher by using an Underground Exam Seal.

The screenshots feature two returning classes from previous games of the series, Trickster and War Cleric/Monk. 

In particular, Trickster is a magical swordman that can disorient enemies with quick moves. They can use a bit of magic and they have the special “Trick” skill that lets them swap their position with an ally within 5 squares. You need Thief as a prerequisite to take the qualification exam.

We also get to see a “fighting merchant clothes” costume for Anna, that will also change her portrait and will be unlocked after completing episode 1 of the DLC.

You can check out the screenshots below.

The Cindered Shadows DLC will be released on February 12. It’ll also be accompanied by a free update. If you’d like to see more, you can enjoy the original announcement, a look at the leader of the Ashen Wolves, Yuri, another member, Constance, the third, Balthus, and the fourth, Hapi. We also got the reveal of another character, Aelfric, more gameplay details, and another batch.
