FByleth recruiting Sylvain easily is hiliarously in character for a guy like him. "sorry Dimitri, new sensei is totally hot"

No one in my class understood how I got Hilda to join us, or why she was carrying 40 owl feathers entering the classroom.

Dmitri: You left the Blue Lions? Does our friendship mean nothing to you? Sylvain: Professor's boobs tho ;)

In a perfect run where Byleth has recruited all of the two other houses, I'm trying to imagine what kind of demoralizing emptiness must go on in those houses with the captains after everyone's decided they're not cool enough.

"No requirement if Byleth is female." Sylvian, who could've guessed? LMAO.

Or you can make a students dead-drunk. Six perfect teatimes (even in one single day) and B-rank support in the bag.

The real question though is...can we recruit Gatekeeper? X3

Brutally murdering any precious character post time skip is not advised. Recruit today for half the price!

I am pleased with the amount of Annette in this video

There are three characters that can't be recruited with just B rank, Ferdinand, Caspar and Leonie all have their B support locked for later in the game, past the point where you can recruit them.

dont have to recruit Ignatz when you chose Golden Deers... Life hacks

If you have a B support, you can also just talk to them during exploring. Take note though, if you start the recruitment conversation and say no for whatever reason, you lose your ONE chance for the day to recruit them.

Or, you know, you can just go F!Byleth and get Sylvain no matter what.

I just fed them flowers til they like me

Quick recruiting tip: Recruit Felix. If you give him a steel gauntlet and a steel sword to switch in between, he is over powered.

An actual useful 3 Houses guide on KZfaq? They said it couldn't be done. Thanks for this.

Since i finished Blue Lions first and now have to play the other houses, i told myself that i HAD to recruit Ashe every time. No way around it, the boy gotta stay with me. I must protect the precious child.

Every playthrough I do, I just HAVE to recruit bernadetta. Freaking love her. Her support conversations with others are so adorable too

My first playthrough, I only recruited the cream of the crop. From there, only the cream of the cream joined me in battle. I’m happy with my team and I feel a sense of accomplishment knowing I built these guys from the ground up like a true teacher. My babies are all grown up and ready to destroy people. *Sniff*

This is great for everybody except Ferdinand and Caspar, at least in Blue Lions route. Their B Supports are timeskip locked. I've recruited every other character.

Recruiting everyone into a single house regardless of alligiance? What is this, Fire Emblem Fates Revelations?!

“P3nis” I’m glad that our boi Chaz has the UTMOST skill in naming people

i'd recruit these characters just so i wouldn't kill them post time skip.

I'm glad somebody recognizes Ignatz's superiority

I found a method to level up all skills to maximum very fast, like armored from c to a+ in 15 minutes. Step 1, have an armored knight or unit with enough defense to be able to tank infinitely Step 2, have access to adjudants, and pair up the character you want to level a skill with with said tank. Adjudants gain the full benefit of combat, skill and even class experience. They gain experience in the skill you have equipped with the adjudant before starting the map, including riding (be a cav unit), faith (equip nosferatu) and the rest. Step 3, equip the tank with broken or rusted weapons, so it becomes difficult for it to kill a unit. Rusted weapons never break, and you get points for that weapon type regardless if you hit or miss. Step 4, skip enemy phase in options. This is what basically makes it insanely easy and not time consuming to do. Step 5, do a bandit map, most preferably ones without mages and with bushes, and draw as much fire to you as possible, then simply end the turn. The unit and the adjudant basically gain a handful of points per combat done in the enemy phase. If there are 4 bandits and 2 archers, you gain like 24 points in your skills per turn. And since a turn lasts like one second, you level up skills within minutes. I do not recommend doing this in normal playthrough as basically the point of the game is to use your head and plan skill development accordingly. This method completely removes this element. But im having fun building a fully s+ edelgard with all classes unlocked.

on my first play through of the game, I wasn't able to recruit ANY students because I did not know this. I figured out this method on my second playthrough by complete accident, and I felt like the game had lied to me.

Nice to see that Chaz is back (in the clack)

Ignatz is my dancer and has about 30 charm now, which is good because now it makes how much charm he has to me.

"The 8 students you start with" *Laughs in Catherine and Shamir*

My house is good enough. I don’t need the other weaklings

"Remember to recruit Ignatz" Me just finishing a chapter where I had Edelgard axe him in half. Oh...

"I hope you all recruit ignatz. He's such a sweet boy" Fast forward 5 years in edelgard's story: oops

I knew my $1 patreon support comes in handy for videos like these

I failed to recruit Petra, Ashe, Ingrid, Ferdinand and Caspar... Now, after the time-skip I feel like crap for failing to recruit everyone...

Your fixation on Annette is quite something!

You don't need to wait for the students to ask to join your class most of the time. If you want to proc the support in the monastery, you can just fast travel and it will load in. After that, you can just fast travel again to reload the map again and then you can try to attempt to recruit them. I recruited most other students this way, the only one I had to wait to ask me was Ingrid

Lemme shorten this all down for you: Fastest way to recruit characters NG+

how can i recruit you... what if we gained S Support 😳

finally a person who appreciates ignatz

And as a side note to anyone watching this guide after being worried about the conspicuously empty slot on the battle deployment menu: don't be. In addition to this mechanic every route gives you a few units for free, and past a certain point Byleth's natural progression will let him recruit certain Knights/trainers without a struggle. Also when a Mission Assistance unit performs an action, they get affinity from Byleth anywhere on the map. This is particularly useful for unit who gain Faith while NPC, as they can heal everyone's papercuts from across the map and still get closer to recruitment.

Thank god, finally I can recruit Bernadetta! She's just so adorable and I want her in my class so bad... Thanks for the advice!

"They'll succumb to your scum" is something i didnt thought would fit so perfectly

Surprisingly, I'm already at 3 students left to recruit (being Lorenz, Sylvain, and Marianne) and at ch. 10, and it's my first playthrough! Can't believe I've done this good so far.

Good video and guide. The only other tip I have is that another good cost-efficient way to get support points is by adding the student you want to recruit to your team with Mission Assistance, then assigning them as an adjutant to Byleth (or whoever else you want them to support with). They get support points with Byleth for every combat, and anytime Byleth gets support points with a student, the adjutant will get them as well. Keeps them safely off the field too.

IGNATZ GANG RISE UP

+Chaz Aria LLC Or just wait for new game plus and use all your extra money to bribe them with gifits and I 100% agree with sticking to mainly your core party on your first run I only recommend geting 1 or 2 from the other houses as you will be needing a slightly larger party for late game maps and some of the paralougs and you should be able to earn one or two of your favorites from the other house's through gifts and natual progression. The game is designed sticking to your own house for your base playthrough and then lets you get more in NG+ via the renown system which will quickly have the other houses saying where did everyone go? Hell if you stick with swords which Sword of the Creator kinda encourages you to do the game basicly gives Felix to you and hes a great unit for any house in my opinon.

i just want to steal everyone from edelgarf

I'm a Deers boy and am currently 35 hours in and only on chapter 10. There are too many sweet children I must adopt in this game. Ashe, Sylvain, Annette, Caspar, and Linhardt. I wish I knew you could bypass the stat requirements, would have saved me a lot of time grinding a bunch of skills I'm never going to use on my Swordmast Byleth.

I was expecting something meme-y. Instead I was pleasantly surprised by actual solid content. Good job, Chaz!

Thank you Chaz. You're the frothiest of them all!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I subscribed to your channel (because of the magnificent delivery) after starting FE3H and looking for some general guides, but this video is just pure gold and just what everybody needs! No guides on the internet mention this info for some reason.

So much more helpful than just showing each character joining you without a description. Thank you!

Note* for those that can be recruited this way all but (Caspar, Ferdinand, and Leonie) you don't need to wait for them to ask. Once they are B rank, just walk up and ask them to join, they will be delighted you took the initiative.

I actually did recruit Ignatz while trying to get Dorthea. Thanks for the video! ^.^

Hey just wanna say I still play the game from time to time and I go back to your videos for refreshers, and I really appreciate all of them. Hope to see more in the future!

Been in the mood to replay this game and have been binging content. I saw this video after my first play through and wanted to say thanks for the help all those years ago, when I finally did Silver Snow route I got everyone. This guide has been so memorable I could recall the information reliably, thanks for helping my past 360 hours and my future playthroughs of this game.

Why try to recruit Ignatz when you could choose the best house: The Golden Deer house.

That was actually quite helpful, man, thanks. Now I know how to recruit Felix and Bernadetta! (never really wanted to recruit a bunch of students, only a few)

Probably one of the better videos out there on Three Houses. Actually... this is the best kind of guide video: simple, concise and proper tips that others may have not mentioned or aware of. Also, I appreciate blue shirt Anakin being brought back to take out the trash, dude's like a spirit animal to the channel. You may not rack up the views like RamZaes or some other KZfaqr due to a lack of a naturally seeded audience, but hopefully, this will get around once I share it. Keep going man, really loving the content even if I don't have the game... YET.

I never comment or like videos, but yours was one of the few resources online right now that doesn’t feel like click bait. Here’s a thumbs up for your trouble 😄

I was so confused when doing my second run of the game and Sylvain wanted to join me asap? I had so much trouble to recruit girls in the blue lions for my first playthrough and now the lady killer is literally jumping on the occasion to seduce me..

Wow; this is really helpful. I'll definitely be using this to snipe recruits on my next playthroughs.

First play through and I'm not even done the blue lions storyline. Yet I'm here and ready to plan ahead for my second playthrough. Lol! Thanks for this video. Definitely helpful along with many of the comments with other tips on weapon and class leveling.

Dude, you are the best! So glad I'm about to go into my first playthru of this game with this knowledge!

Best Advice...... EVER, so damn straight to the point ! Thank you

Ignatz is pretty relatable

Thanks for the tips Choopi! This really helped a lot

I'm glad to know that mission assistance does actually help. i only did it one time and I didn't notice a difference in support - it is plausible that I wasn't paying attention - anyway, so I didn't do it again. I have my eye on three characters I want to recruit. Been working hard, but I see that I can streamline my attempts with your methods. Thanks!

NG+ has been pretty chill. As long as you don't want to use Renown for other stuff you can just dump it on Professor Level for the high action points and everytime you finish quests use the renown to buy the supports you did on your first run or on skills. The action points help on the supports you haven't done or on training up certain skills that you can't buy with renown. All I have to focus on are the ones I didn't recruit on my first run and that's it. I super agree with you on the not recruiting everyone on the first run. The main cast of every house is likable as fuck and is enough for the run. At most I recommend you recruit people you're interested in or want for their usefulness in battle (i.e., Felix is a good dancer). Plus recruiting a lot of characters on your first run is likely gonna become an inconvenience. Edit: Also recruiting isn't totally bad. A lot of the recruits I got on my first run had really interesting supports with the house leader and the other students they could support. Paralogues are also a big plus (Leonie got such a good weapon out of one).

Might as well just join golden deer if you want ignatz so badly, youll get to off lorenz!

“The eight you start out with are really all you need to get through this game” ..................but I’ve become too attached to all the other ones too

Honestly the first recruitment video I've watched that actually made sense thanks dude

This is the kind of ASMR that I can support.

My switch is still dead and I feel like everyone else already beat the game with all three houses S Supporting everyone already and also just in general dislike me specifically with spoiler videos being launched straight at me. Its a conspirancy I'm telling you.

Awesome informational vid dood! Will save for next playthrough and share!!!

Well this is certainly very good to know! I mean I did Recruit Dorothea, Felix, and Bernadetta already using the stat method for my first run, but this is certainly an alternative method that I’ll definitely try to do on subsequent runs! Thanks so much Chaz!

I’m on New Game+ and I just recruited every single unit with ease, holla at ya boy

I actually didn’t know that a B support student could invite themselves into your class. Thanks for that. I’ll have to try in a playthrough that wasn’t fully dedicated to being blind.

Feeding gifts after a perfect tea time really boosted my support gains. That combined with some of these tips made it pretty easy to get all the students I could on my first run

Thanks for the video. That truly helps out a lot.

Also after you B support just fast travel then go back to the person and recruit them manually

If ur not in Blue Lions get Mercedes and Felix. Mercedes is op healer and her magic stat is high n she can heal across the other side of the map

Thank you for this, it's very helpful and direct with the info as you said.

My friend shared this video with me because I said I was interested in recruitment. You now have a new subscriber! Love your voice and presentation. Very handy info. Thank you! (I'm playing BL House, first ever playthrough - I will recruit Ignatz!!) :D

Choopi Choosi back in the klack with the informative information!

How to easily recruit: Psst.....i'll give you an A if you join me.

Very useful guide, I'd noticed that Bernadetta had joined me just after I'd gotten her support to B on one playthrough but I'd thought it might be something more like the supports lowering the requirements rather than just rng. Thanks for the help.

I Appreciate the help! Thanks!!! On a side note just recruited Felix and Ignatz (Still on chapter 7 because you know Sickness) and finally got Maneula to B Support. hehehe

Every time the mission assistance character attacks or heals they also gain support strength with Byleth even when across the map.

Okay, but how do I recruit you bb?

I loved the little nemo music in the background you snuck in there

Great video Chaz, this is going to make planning out my teams a lot easier from now on. I wonder just how many support points it takes to get to B rank though.

When I think about this feature it feels more funny that claude is alone like literally no teacher no singal student with him poor claude🤣

Chaz, you’re a lifesaver! I’ve been trying to figure out the easiest way to do it.

This will definitely help me! Thanks for the tips!

thank you!! was so tired of trying to get dex & riding up to get Petra when i was focusing on Sword/Reason for Byleth

I recruited Ignatz at the last month and trained him to be a wyvern rider so he ended up marrying Petra. Brigid has a booming economy now. Didn't know about the skill requirements lowering so the few students I did recruit felt like they really believed in the cause. Also didn't know about Sylvain so he died like a dog to his best friend lmao

3H was more or less what I've wanted from FE in years. A tragic tale of war where there is no right path, resources are finite albeit plentiful, and it tries something new and it actually kinda works. My only real gripe is that a couple tweaks could have made it better. Just as battalions can be equipped, mounts should have been implemented much the same way with air and ground options for fliers. I mean they've got legs. Why must they always be flying? Anyone could use a mount but it would depend on their skill whether they're efficient with one. On that note, later classes should have been based around possessing greater qualities rather than "It's just this but now there's a horse".

I appreciate this guide a lot for what it is, but a million times more because I didn't know I could soft reset, THANK YOU

I am simultaneously thankful for this information but also pissed since I’ve been following those online guides for recruitment and my Byleth is all over the place. So far I’ve only been able to recruit Petra and Ashe. But I’ve been trying to get Sylvain, Annette, the other red haired noble guy. Can’t think of his name. I’m just gonna start giving them all the random presentsIve collected and see if I can woo them with gifts.
