Discover the Witch class in Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation! Learn about its stats, growth rates, unique skills like Shadowgift and Warp, and how to obtain Witch seals.
Alright, let's talk about the Witch class in Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation. Honestly, this class is what the Sorcerer *should* have been. It's a bit fragile, sure, but it packs a serious punch and keeps up a really good Speed stat. The coolest part? Shadowgift lets you use dark tomes, even if you're not a Dark Mage or Sorcerer. The only real downside is that it's a DLC-exclusive class, which is probably why it's so darn good.
Let's break down what makes the Witch tick:
Stat Growth Rates
| Stat | Growth Rate |
| Health | 5% |
| Strength | 0% |
| Magic | 25% |
| Skill | 5% |
| Speed | 20% |
| Luck | 5% |
| Defense | 0% |
| Resistance | 10% |
Weapon Proficiency

| Scrolls/Tomes |
Unique Skills
- Shadowgift — This skill is huge! It allows the Witch to use dark tomes even if they aren't a Dark Mage or Sorcerer. This opens up some really powerful options.
- Witch’s Brew — For the first 7 turns of a map, there's a Luck % chance you'll find a potion item at the end of your turn. If you're someone who uses potions a lot, this is a nice little bonus to get them for free.
- Warp — This is the main reason to use the Witch. It lets you instantly move to a space adjacent to any ally, and then you can take another action. You can't move *after* warping, but you can use it to jump around the map, support allies from afar, and really surprise enemies. It's incredibly fun and effective.
- Toxic Brew — This skill has a chance (Skill x 1.5%) to activate when the Witch initiates combat. If it does, the enemy's Movement is reduced to 0 and their Avoid drops by -20 for one turn. It's the closest thing we have to those annoying skills some enemies use to mess with your movement.
Getting Witch Seals
You can get more Witch seals from a couple of places:
- A Gift from Anna (1): During this mission, you'll have a choice to make. Make sure you pick the Witch’s Mark! This is a one-time freebie, so don't miss it.
- Witch’s Trial: This is another way to acquire Witch seals.
Overall, the Witch is a fantastic class, especially if you like using magic and want a lot of mobility and utility on the battlefield. Don't let the low defensive growths scare you; focus on positioning and using those unique skills!
