An '''Archsage''' is a wise, powerful master of all types of magic. It is the class of only one character in the series, named [[Athos]]. He appears in {{FE7}} late in the game. An archsage is an extremely powerful sage who has mastered magic after centuries of practice. Archsages wield anima magic, light magic, dark magic, and staves.
The '''Arch Sage''' or '''Archsage''' (Japanese: {{hl|大賢者|Daikenja}} ''Arch Sage'') is an [[:Category:Advanced classes|advanced]] magical [[class]] which debuted in {{FE7}}. Acting as an even more advanced form of the [[Sage]] and related classes, Archsages are masters of multiple magical disciplines with high stats. In its original appearance in ''Fire Emblem'', the Archsage is the exclusive class of [[Athos]] of the [[Eight Legends]], in his brief playable role in the [[Light (part 1)|Final]] [[Light (part 2)|Chapter]]. In {{title|Radiant Dawn}}, the Arch Sage is the [[:Category:Third-tier advanced classes|third-tier]] [[Class change|promoted]] form of the game's four element-specific Sage variants: the [[Fire Sage]], [[Thunder Sage]], [[Wind Sage]] and [[Dark Sage]].


Athos is only available for one chapter, but he is extremely powerful. He is a very useful character in this last chapter. Archsage have high stats in all categories, even defense, which makes it safe for them to be in the front of an army.
Arch Sages have access to a broad spectrum of magic, typically featuring multiple types of offensive magic with an emphasis on [[anima magic]] alongside healing [[Staff|staves]]. ''Fire Emblem'' Archsages wield all four magic categories - anima, light, dark and staves, while the Arch Sages of ''Radiant Dawn'' primarily wield all three anima magic types. The ''Radiant Dawn'' Arch Sage is technically four separate classes which have minor variations in stat builds and usable weapons; in addition to the three anima-specialist versions, the dark variant exclusive to [[Pelleas]] wields only thunder magic, dark magic and staves, and also has higher [[Weapon level|proficiency]] in staves than the anima variants.


Archsages are separate in class changes from other classes, but it is possible that Athos was originally a normal [[sage]]. Athos is already level 20 and cannot gain any more stats; his stats are the same as the base stats, except that he has 25 luck. Although he cannot grow, his stats are still lower than this class's maximum stats.
In all cases, Arch Sages specialize in pure magical offense, as the various Sage classes do. Their [[Magic (stat)|magical power]], [[skill (stat)|skill]] and [[speed]] all remain high, giving them potent, [[hit rate|accurate]] and [[attack speed|quick]] offensive abilities. However, they share the traditional weak [[HP]] and [[defense]] of most magical classes, although their [[resistance]] is respectable.

== Trivia ==
* In {{title|The Blazing Blade}}, the Archsage is the only playable class which is capable of having more than one S [[weapon level]].
* ''Radiant Dawn''{{'}}s North American help description erroneously states that Pelleas's version of Arch Sage class encompasses all types of magic. This was corrected in the PAL release.
