Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is a hack and slash action RPG developed by Koei Tecmo and Omega Force, and published by Nintendo. Set in an alternate timeline of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, the game explores new possibilities opened up by the survival of Shez, a Mercenary fated to die whose continued survival alters the story in unforeseen ways.

Blessed Bow

An excellent and easily locatable early game bow, the Blessed Bow provides a small amount of healing to its wielder while conferring additional effectiveness against monsters.

This allows the bow to be effective against all monsters and extra effective against monsters who possess a bow barrier.

The blessed bow is an S-rank reward from missions in the early chapters of the game, and can also be dropped by monsters and enemy commanders.

Magic Bow

The Magic bow is a fantastic weapon for turning characters with high magic stats into highly capable archers. It deals damage based on the wielder’s magic stat rather than their strength, allowing high magic characters like Mercedes and Lysithia to wield it with tremendous skill.

Acquired as an S-rank reward from missions in early chapters of the game, and dropped by monsters and enemy commanders, it’s fairly easy to acquire one.

Bow of Zoltan

As the second strongest non-relic bow in the entire game, the Bow of Zoltan is a solid choice for any archer. With 110 might and 120 durability, it performs excellently in battle before any upgrades, and versions that have already been upgraded to +10 can be acquired as an S-rank reward from missions in the final chapters of Scarlet Blaze and Golden Wildfire, as well as chapter 14 of Azure Gleam.

This weapon can also be found as a drop from monsters, especially on higher difficulties.

Parthia

The strongest non-relic bow in the game, Parthia is a recurring weapon from previous Fire Emblem games. With 120 might and 130 durability, it makes for a fantastic weapon in the hands of any archer, especially those who lack a crest and cannot use Hero’s Relics.

This weapon is usually found as a broken A-Rank bow that must be repaired by the blacksmith to reveal its true form, and said broken bow can be dropped by monsters on high difficulties.

Tathlum Bow

The Tathlum Bow is a sacred weapon attuned to the crest of Lamine that has 40 might and 70 durability, though both of these jump up by 100 if its effects are unlocked at the blacksmith.

This also unlocks its hidden skill, granting health regeneration to its wielder that grows more potent if said wielder bears the crest of Lamine.

This weapon is acquired by S-ranking the main mission of chapter 12 on the Azure Gleam route.

Inexhaustible

Inexhaustible is another sacred weapon with 40 might and 70 durability and bears the same effect as the Tathlum Bow when its effects are unlocked at the blacksmith.

This bow is attuned to the crest of Indech and can be acquired by S-ranking the main mission of chapter 13 on the Scarlet Blaze route.

Failnaught

The Failnaught is the Hero’s Relic of House Riegan, and has 40 might and 70 durability, though these increase by 100 once its effects are unlocked at the blacksmith.

The weapon also has the skill “Windbender” which greatly improves the range of its attacks compared to any other bow. When used by a bearer of the Crest of Riegan it allows them to use the Fallen Star combat art, which showers the area directly ahead of them with bolts of light and deals damage based on the wielder’s magic stat.

This makes it best in the hands of Claude, or an archer that is also equipped with the Star Dragon Sign to grant them the Crest of Riegan.

The Failnaught is automatically equipped to Claude when reaching chapter 4 of Golden Wildfire for the first time.

Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is available for Nintendo Switch.
