The plates under a lord’s name are the guide’s tier on that route; the dark plate is the guide’s overall tier; the outlined plate is the community tier from site votes.

Notes

  • No Fandom page exists for FW's Orichaldia (fireemblem.fandom.com returns missingtitle) and fireemblemwiki.org has no dedicated page either; the only cross-reference is the category footer on fireemblemwiki.org's generic Myrmidon page, which buckets Orichaldia under 'Human classes (unknown tier)' rather than naming it Master tier -- flagged as an unresolved tier-source disagreement against Game8's explicit Master-tier placement (classes.json already uses Game8's tier). No character recommended into Orichaldia by Game8's Best Classes guide (Master tier explicitly excluded from that guide as of 18 Sept 2026). Movement type: not found for any Master-tier class (Pocket Tactics' movement-type table stops at Advanced tier).
