10 Best Light Magic Users In Fire Emblem History | Game Rant

Throughout the Fire Emblem series, players are able to utilize a wide variety of unique characters in their armies. While some of the most iconic characters in the franchise wield weaponry such as swords, the series is filled to the brim with potent magic users. Offensive magic comes in numerous forms such as elemental anima magic and light magic. Magic units have a great deal of appeal, as they can easily subvert the defenses of bulky armored units.

While offensive light magic has been rebranded as an extension of Faith magic in Fire Emblem: Three Houses, it is characteristically much the same. Light magic users traditionally tote notably high resistance and can fill interesting niche’s in one’s forces. Which characters are the strongest light magic wielders from across the Fire Emblem franchise?

10 Yoder – The Binding Blade

Though Yoder is one of the last units recruited in Fire Emblem: The Binding Bladehis low availability doesn’t stop him from being one of the best light magic wielders in the game.

Joining with an S rank in staves and an A rank in light magic, Yoder is one of the few units in the game who is immediately capable of wielding the majority of light tomes. This is especially noteworthy as due to the absence of the Monk class, very few units in The Binding Blade are capable of wielding light magic.

9 Rhys – Path Of Radiance

Rhys is the first healer available to players in Path of Radiance and has quite exceptional availability. While he joins a player’s army as a cleric, unable to contribute to combat, upon promoting into a bishop, he gains access to light magic.

Due to his 60% magic growth, by the time Rhys has been promoted and is able to attack with light magic, his damage output will be quite serviceable. He will be able to contribute offensively when he’s not patching up his allies.

8 Micaiah – Radiant Dawn

Unlike the vast majority of Fire Emblem protagonists that wield swords, Micaiah of Radiant Dawn is one of the few protagonists in the series that specializes in magical attacks; namely, light magic. Available from the very first chapter of Radiant Dawn, while Micaiah is perhaps the most fragile protagonist in the series, her consistent access to ranged attacks should not be understated.

Additionally, Micaiah has extra utility in the form of her sacrifice ability which allows her to transfer her HP to damaged allies.

7 Artur – The Sacred Stones

Artur is a monk who joins a player’s army in Chapter Four of The Sacred StonesJoining as a level two monk with iffy base stats but solid growth rates, he is one of the most widely available magic units in The Sacred Stones. 

While Artur’s base stats are by no means perfect, they are enough to allow him to double enemies in his joining chapter. Artur immediately contributes to combat and easily earns himself some experience.

6 Yuri – Three Houses

Yuri is the leader of the Ashen Wolves and a student available in the Cindered Shadows of Three HousesGeared towards the Trickster class, Yuri totes an excellent list of Faith spells.

Learning Nosferatu and Aura, Yuri is capable of weaponizing his magic, whilst also making use of physical offense as well. Consequently, Yuri is a notably versatile and flexible unit with speed on his side and solid offensive capabilities.

5 Lucius – The Blazing Blade

Appearing in each route of The Blazing Blade, Lucius is a Monk who is recruited in Chapter Seven of Lyn’s route, Chapter Sixteen of Eliwood’s route, and Chapter Seventeen of Hector’s route.

With standout growth rates in magic and resistance, Lucius is an excellent choice for a magical damage dealer. Additionally, as Lucius gains access to staves upon promoting into a Bishop, his utility only grows with time.

4 Marianne – Three Houses

When it comes to support units in Three Houses, it’s hard to compare with the sheer utility of Marianne. With a robust spell list that features both Physic and Silence, Marianne comes with a solid magic growth that allows her to get the most of these spells.

In addition to her support utility, Marianne learns Nosferatu and Aura, allowing her to utilize a high Faith rank offensively.

3 Annette – Three Houses

Like Marianne, Annette is one of the standout support units of Three Houses, toting unique utility in the form of her many Rally abilities. Though Annette is often noted for her offensive capabilities with reason magic, she also has a worthwhile arsenal of faith spells featuring the excellent healing spell, Recover.

However, Annette’s access to one of the strongest offensive faith spells, Abraxas, paired with her one-of-a-kind utility makes her one of the best light magic users in Fire Emblem history.

2 Lysithea – Three Houses

While Faith is most commonly viewed as the source of healing and support spells in Three Houses, Lysithea is a unit who learns more damaging spells through Faith than she does support spells. Only learning the support spells Heal and Warp, Lysithea learns Nosferatu, Seraphim, and even the highly potent Abraxas.

Though Lysithea is most commonly regarded for her stellar utility as a wielder of Reason magic, she is one of the few units who are capable of consistently dishing out great damage through Faith magic.

1 Saleh – The Sacred Stones

Saleh is a pre-promoted Sage who appears in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, notably joining a player’s army in Chapter Twelve of Eirika’s route. While Sages traditionally wield Anima Magic and Staves across the Fire Emblem series, in The Sacred Stones, Sages are also can also wield light magic. Due to this added weapon type, Saleh joins a player’s army with a B rank, the highest starting light magic weapon rank of any character in the game.

This allows Saleh to wield powerful light spells more easily than any other unit. While Saleh isn’t often known for his light magic use, between his impressive base stats and high light magic rank, few other users compare with him.
