The '''Trueblade''' (剣聖, ''Kensei'', meaning "master swordsman") class, also referred to as the '''Sword Eschatos''' (ソードエスカトス, ''Soodo Esukatosu'') class in Japan, is a very advanced [[sword]]-using class exclusive to {{title|Radiant Dawn}}.
The '''Trueblade''' (Japanese: {{ruby|{{hover|剣聖|Sōdo esukatosu}}|ソードエスカトス}} ''Sword Eschatos'') is an advanced [[sword]]-using [[class]] which debuted in {{FE10}}. It is a rare [[:Category:Third-tier advanced classes|third-tier promoted class]] and the final stage of the [[Myrmidon]] class, promoting from the [[Swordmaster]] class.
 
Being an advanced Swordmaster, the Trueblade continues the Myrmidon line's traditional stat build and takes it to its extreme conclusion. While their raw damage output is lower than the average due to their lesser [[strength]], their [[Skill (stat)|skill]] and [[speed]] are immense and among the highest of any class, giving them great [[Hit rate|accuracy]] and a very high chance of [[follow-up attack]]ing their foes and making them very efficient fighters. As a result of their high skill and their possession of a skill which grants them a significant critical bonus, Trueblades also inflict [[critical hit]]s very frequently. They also make near-exclusive use of the iconic [[Astra]] skill, allowing them to land five consecutive blows on their target when the skill activates.
 
However, Trueblades are held back by their frailty, as their [[maximum HP]], [[defense]] and [[resistance]] are all fairly low compared to other infantry classes. In addition, their sword-exclusive nature greatly limits their options for long-[[range]] attack. As with Swordmasters, Trueblades are most effective when their faults are mitigated through tactical use of [[terrain]] benefits to bolster their defenses and increase their [[avoid]].

==Etymology==
===Class skills===
The word "trueblade" seems to be only a creative invention by the translators of ''Fire Emblem''. The Japanese name, '''Sword Eschatos''', is from a Greek word meaning "last" or "extreme".<ref>http://strongsnumbers.com/greek/2078.htm</ref>

==Trivia==
*Outside of ''Radiant Dawn'', "[[Sword Saint (disambiguation)|sword saint]]" (the class's Japanese name) was a title held by numerous other characters: [[Od]] from the backstory of {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}}, [[Karel]] and [[Fir]] from {{title|The Binding Blade}}, [[Guy]] in the localized version of {{FE7}} and [[Yen'fay]] in the Japanese version of {{title|Awakening}}.
**It additionally shares its Japanese name with that of the [[Swordmaster]] class in {{title|Fates}}.
*In ''Radiant Dawn''{{'}}s class roll, the Trueblade class is erroneously referred to as "Swordmaster".

{{Names

|jpn-name={{ruby|{{hl|剣聖|Sōdo esukatosu}}|ソードエスカトス}}
|jpn-mean=Officially romanized as '''Sword Eschatos'''; literally translates as "sword saint". In ''Radiant Dawn'', all Japanese class names are spelled primarily in kanji (i.e. {{lang|ja|剣聖}}), with a foreign-language name in katakana applied as [[wikipedia:Furigana|furigana]] (i.e. {{lang|ja|ソードエスカトス}}) and used as the basis for the romanized name in the class roll.<br>In feudal Japanese culture, ''{{lang|ja-Latn|kensei}}'' ({{hl|剣聖|Kensei}}) was a title given to a [[Myrmidon|swordfighter]] ({{hl|剣士|Kenshi}}) of legendary skill. It is even higher in prestige than the title ''[[Swordmaster|kengō]]'' ({{hl|剣豪|kengō}}), which was bestowed upon great swordfighters.<br>The ''Radiant Dawn'' furigana/romanized name, Sword Eschatos, is taken from the Greek {{lang|grc|ἔσχατος}} ''{{lang|grc-Latn|éschatos}}'', "furthest" or "extreme", implying the class is the "greatest swordsman".
