Complete the Fire Emblem Heroes Chapter Thirty: Victory or Death objective to seize the gate. Includes enemy list, reinforcements, and strategy.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Recruit Renault by talking to him in the north-west village. He will leave when reinforcements begin appearing from the far north-west of the map.
  2. 2
    Divide your party into three groups: one to cross the divide, one to go up the long western path, and one to go across and up the eastern path.
  3. 3
    Send high movement characters up the western path, defeating enemies along the way.
  4. 4
    Send tanks, such as Hector and Oswin (ideally near level 20), up the eastern path. Ensure other prepromoted units are also gaining experience so Hector and Oswin are not yet level 20.
  5. 5
    If you have two fliers, have one rescue Canas and the other rescue Eliwood, then fly towards the boss.
  6. 6
    Alternatively, if you do not have two fliers, rescue Canas and have Eliwood travel quickly through the divide.
  7. 7
    Position your casters in the divide and have your healer follow the group that appears to need the most assistance.
  8. 8
    Focus on having unpromoted units defeat as many enemies as possible to maximize experience gain.
  9. 9
    Have your fliers drop Canas and Eliwood near the fortresses adjacent to Limstella. Ensure they are well-equipped and at least level 10 promoted.
  10. 10
    If Eliwood is lagging behind, allow him to catch up.
  11. 11
    While other units explore, visit villages, and defeat enemies, Canas should engage the boss Limstella, ideally using Luna.
  12. 12
    After defeating Limstella, which should take approximately two turns, quickly seize the gate with Eliwood.
