The '''Swordmaster''' (Japanese: {{hover|ソードマスター|Sōdomasutā}} ''Swordmaster'') is an [[:Category:Advanced classes|advanced]] [[Sword|sword-wielding]] [[class]] which debuted in {{FE4}} and appears in every game in the {{FES}} since except {{title|Echoes: Shadows of Valentia}}. It is the primary [[Class change|promoted]] version of the [[Myrmidon]], being available to it as a class change option in every appearance, and in {{FE10}} Swordmasters can promote again to become [[Trueblade]]s. In {{FE14}}, it is a [[Hoshido]]-aligned class and is one of the [[class change]] options for the new [[Samurai]] class, the alternative being the [[Master of Arms]].

Conceived as something of a counterpart to the [[Hero]] class, Swordmasters heavily emphasize exceptionally high [[skill (stat)|skill]] and [[speed]] stats in exchange for having lesser [[strength]] and being less sturdy. Owing to both their high skill and typically possessing substantial bonuses to their [[critical rate]], Swordmasters frequently inflict [[critical hit]]s, compensating somewhat for their relative lack of strength. Although they are efficient attackers, their worrisome defenses, with poor [[HP]], [[defense]] and [[resistance]], make their offensive use a risky prospect. For the most effective use of a Swordmaster, these faults are best mitigated through use of [[terrain]] to compensate for their defenses and to boost their [[avoid]].

  • Backup (Engage)
Weapon(s)

Skill(s)

The Swordmaster (Japanese: ソードマスター Swordmaster) is an advanced sword-wielding class which debuted in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War and appears in every game in the Fire Emblem series since except Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. It is the primary promoted version of the Myrmidon, being available to it as a class change option in every appearance, and in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn Swordmasters can promote again to become Trueblades. In Fire Emblem Fates, it is a Hoshido-aligned class and is one of the class change options for the new Samurai class, the alternative being the Master of Arms.

Conceived as something of a counterpart to the Hero class, Swordmasters heavily emphasize exceptionally high skill and speed stats in exchange for having lesser strength and being less sturdy. Owing to both their high skill and typically possessing substantial bonuses to their critical rate, Swordmasters frequently inflict critical hits, compensating somewhat for their relative lack of strength. Although they are efficient attackers, their worrisome defenses, with poor HP, defense and resistance, make their offensive use a risky prospect. For the most effective use of a Swordmaster, these faults are best mitigated through use of terrain to compensate for their defenses and to boost their avoid.

Swordmaster

--

Japanese

ソードマスター
剣豪ソードマスター
剣聖

• Officially romanized as Swordmaster. This katakana rendering is used in all games.
• Officially romanized as Swordmaster. In Radiant Dawn, all Japanese class names are spelled primarily in kanji (i.e. 剣豪), with a foreign-language name in katakana applied as furigana (i.e. ソードマスター) and used as the basis for the romanized name in the class roll.
In feudal Japanese culture, kengō (剣豪) was a title given to a masterful swordsman.
• Officially romanized as Kensei; literally translates as "sword saint". This kanji name is used only in Fates. In feudal Japanese culture, kensei (剣聖) was a title given to a swordfighter (剣士) of legendary skill. In Radiant Dawn, this was the name of the Trueblade class, the promoted form of the Swordmaster. In Fates, it forms a naming theme with the other two advanced, single-weapon Hoshidan classes, 槍聖 Sousei (spear saint) and 弓聖 Kyuusei (bow saint).
