Third Tier is a level that can be achieved in Fire Emblem Gaiden, Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, and Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia.

In Radiant Dawn, Third Tier is the final promotion for Beorc units. Second Tier units can achieve Third Tier simply by reaching level 21, or by using a Master Crown when at level 10 or higher. However, in the Japanese version of Radiant Dawn, Third Tier could only be achieved via use of a Master Crown. Third Tier classes are incredibly powerful, but they typically have the same battle animations as their Second Tier counterparts. They receive an Occult skill upon promotion, and can often have non-HP stats beyond the cap of 30, which is very rare in the Fire Emblem series. Some player units start at Third Tier, and they include Bastian, Volke, Oliver, and Renning. Very few Third Tier enemies exist, such as Levail and Lekain. However, in Part 4 chapters, enemies have similar stat caps to the Third Tier units, although they are not actually classified as being Third Tier, instead being what are known as SP Classes.
