'''Archers''' (Japanese: {{hover|アーチャー|Āchā}} ''Archer'') are a [[bow]]-wielding class present in the {{FES}}. Their first appearance was in {{FE1}} and have been used as playable units in each game of the series since then; the exceptions being {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}} and {{title|Thracia 776}}, in the former they were an unused class (intended to be the bow-wielding variant to the similarly-unused [[Soldier]] class), while in the latter they are an enemy only class. In both games, the archers role of playable bow infantry fell to [[Bow Fighter|bow fighters]]. In {{title|Fates}}, they are a [[Hoshido]]-based class and wield [[yumi]], the Hoshidan equivalent of bows.

Archers are basic units (except in {{title|Gaiden}} and its remake, {{title|Echoes:  Shadows of Valentia}}, being an alternative promotion for [[villager]]s) and can be promoted to [[sniper]]s. A new promotion is offered in {{title|The Sacred Stones}}, by which archers can become [[ranger]]s, an option that is also available in {{title|Awakening}} as [[Bow Knight|bow knights]]. In {{title|Fates}}, bow knights are replaced as a promotion option by [[Kinshi Knight]]s, which serve a similar purpose.
