Classes & certification

What we know

Nintendo’s Direct recap lists swords, gauntlets, spears, axes, bows and magic. Collected materials can be used to enhance weapons at the Shopping Arcade; the full recipes, costs and durability-repair rules are not documented. Nintendo describes five Beginner classes and over ten Specialty classes; the nine named examples here are not the complete roster.

Class framework

A unit’s class affects movement range and weapon proficiency. New classes are obtained through certification exams in Dagsion. Official material groups the demonstrated classes into Beginner, Specialty, and Advanced tiers.

Confirmed classes

Capitalization should be checked against final English interface text. The reviewed summaries establish these names but do not provide class descriptions verbatim from an in-game glossary.

Visible growth rates

Nintendo confirms that character growth rates are visible, showing which basic stats are more likely to increase. The exact per-character values and class modifiers still need verification; a visible rate does not guarantee a particular level-up. Nintendo, checked October 8, 2026 ↗

Certification exams

Certification exams allow units to change or gain classes. The reviewed material does not identify exam costs, required items, proficiency thresholds, failure rates, level requirements, or whether a failed attempt consumes resources.

Progression systems confirmed or implied by official material
