Learn how to set up and utilize StreetPass for Bravely Second! Discover the benefits of tagging other players, including guest summons and rebuilding Fort-Lune.
Hey there! So, you're looking to get the most out of Bravely Second, huh? One cool, but often overlooked, feature is StreetPass. It's basically a way for your 3DS to chat with other 3DS systems nearby, and it can actually give you some neat little boosts in the game. Let's get this set up so you can start reaping the rewards!
Setting Up StreetPass:
First things first, you need to tell the game you want to use StreetPass. When you're on the world map, look for the little inbox icon. It's usually on the far left of the bottom screen, or you can just press Left on the D-pad. The very first time you open that inbox, the game will prompt you to register your StreetPass data. Just follow the on-screen instructions, and you're good to go!
If you ever decide you don't want to use StreetPass anymore, no worries. You can turn it off in your 3DS's System Settings. Just go to 'Data Management,' then 'StreetPass Management,' and you can deactivate it there.
StreetPass Encounters:
So, how do you actually *get* StreetPass tags? It's pretty simple, really. Make sure your 3DS is on or in sleep mode – it can't be in the middle of a local or internet connection, though. You don't even need the game running for this, but having it running can help with rebuilding Fort-Lune and gaining SP, so it's a win-win!
The main idea is just to walk around with your 3DS on. If you happen to pass by someone else who also has Bravely Second registered for StreetPass, your systems will do a little handshake. It really helps if you're in a busy area, like a city center or a big gaming convention. If you're not near many people, you can also look up 'StreetPass relay points' in your area – these are special spots that help relay StreetPass data.
When you get a tag from another player, your 3DS will actually notify you on the Home menu. Back in the game, you'll see an 'Update' symbol next to that inbox icon. Tap it, and you can see who you've encountered and update your StreetPass data!
Benefits of StreetPass:
Okay, so what's in it for you? Well, each time you get a StreetPass tag, you'll receive that player's guest profile. This is super handy because it includes their friend summon! Think of it as getting a temporary ally you can call upon in battle.
On top of that, for every person you tag, you get an extra resident for your Fort-Lune village. More residents mean faster rebuilding and more benefits! Plus, if the other player was sending one, you'll also get a Ba’al. These are powerful creatures that can be quite useful.
A quick tip: try to update your friend summon every now and then. It's a bit of a bummer to tag someone and get a really basic summon. To update yours, just go into battle, select the Summon Friend command, and choose to 'Send' your current summon. Keep it fresh!
