Fire Emblem: Three Houses is out now on the Switch, marrying the series' portable roots with the Nintendo's modern home console. Longtime followers are no doubt excited to dive into the game and start building up their house, and in order to do so, they'll eventually want to track down Crests. These Crests are able to bestow characters with both Minor and Major buffs, and we've got a complete list of Crests in Fire Emblem: Three Houses featured below.


Fire Emblem: Three Houses | What are Crests?

Crests in Fire Emblem: Three Houses are used to bestow characters with immense powers. Most Crests offer a unique ability, with the bulk of them offering additional damage from attacks, nullifying counterattacks, or bolstering magic use.

However, as players might expect, Crests are fairly hard to obtain. The first Crest will be available through Byleth's Sword of the Creator, but players will have to beat the game and start a New Game Plus in order to purchase the remaining 20. This can be accomplished through the Journal using the Crest Items menu, where each Crest costs a total of 1,000 Renown.

Assuming players can track down and purchase them, Crests can then be placed into any character's inventory to increase that character's offensive or defensive abilities.

Here's the full list of every Crest we've found in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. In-game, Crests are also separated into two categories, Major and Minor, where Minor Crests provide smaller buffs and Major Crests provide bigger buffs.
