Fire Emblem Fates FAQ

Fire Emblem Fates is a tactical role-playing video game for the Nintendo 3DS handheld video game console. It is the twelfth game in the Fire Emblem series,[b] and the second to be developed for Nintendo 3DS after Fire Emblem Awakening. Fates was released in three versions, each following a different storyline centered around the same characters: Birthright and Conquest as physical releases, and Revelation as downloadable content.

What's Boon/Bane/Talent?

Boon and Bane are the new Asset/Flaw. Blame Treehouse. Talent is a class that you can heart seal into later.

What's a Heart Seal?

The new Second Seal. You keep your level instead of going back to 1.

What should my Boon/Bane be?

STR/SKL/SPD for boon, LCK for bane. Anything else and you will be sucked.

How do I save Ryoma on Chapter 5?

Pure luck. If he dies there, he won't actually be dead for good.

I bought Birthright, why am I in Nohr?

Every version is the same for the first 6 chapters. After that, it takes you on the path you chose.

How do I recruit siblings?

You wait.

What's an A+ support?

Best friends. Like an alternative to marriage. Partner Seals allow you to reclass to your partner's class set, Bestfriend Seals allow you to do the same for Best Friends.

How do I get other routes?

[Insert smiling jewish man here]

WTF WHY DID KAZE DIE

You didn't get him to an A support before chapter 15 (in Hoshido). Gotta do that.

How do I beat Nohr Chapter 10?

Git gud. Also use the ballistae.

Can I recruit [character not in my route]?

No.

How do I get other people's skills?

Look up their castle in whatever way (people post their IDs in /feg/ all the time), visit the castle, and beat them up. Anyone who says they're just giving away skills usually doesn't have anybody equipped. At that point, you can just waltz up to their throne (top center tile) and capture it. Free skills.

Eugenics?

Doesn't matter much this time around. Most of the child units are fairly bad, and specific pairings don't offer notable benefits over others. If you still want some advice, pair Charlotte/Xander in Nohr and Oboro/Azama in Hoshido. Velouria is best child regardless of pairing.

What's all this capture talk?

You can capture/kidnap enemy units if you kill them with specific units (Orochi in Hoshido, Niles in Nohr). They can then be persuaded to join you by going to the jail. You must have the jail built before you can capture units.

Will I get banned for transferring saves?

Probably not.
