  2. 2
    April 27th: You gain access to the calendar and can explore. You can view house members' stats and info in the journal. Interacting with members of other houses is possible, and recruitment is available later with requirements. Explore the school and talk to characters with speech bubbles to improve support. Note that the list of interactable characters, their locations, and conversations change monthly.
  3. 3
    Go to the second floor, visit the library, and read books for world background.
  4. 4
    Accept the three side quests from Flayn, Dedue, and Sylvain.
  5. 5
    Dedue's Quest: Plant the seeds he gives you. Reward: Seeds and veggies.
  6. 6
    Flayn's Quest: Catch one fish using the bait she provides. This bait is reusable. Reward: Fish and bait (recommend saving).
  7. 7
    Sylvain's Quest: Go to the dining hall and share a meal, which costs activity points. Use "today's special" or the full menu with available ingredients.
  8. 8
    Meet Edelgard for a tutorial on free time activities.
  9. 9
    End free time after completing activities.
  10. 10

    Select your units and set up your battle formation.
  14. 14
    In the battle, defeat Ignautz (archer), Lorenz (lance user), and Ashe first.
  15. 15
    After defeating these three, enemy units will not advance until you approach them.
  16. 16
    Choose your approach:
  17. 17
    Option 1: Go after Claude and Hilda by moving around the barrier.
  18. 18
    Option 2: Go after Dimitri's group. This is recommended as it allows for easier unit picking and lower risk to your own units.
  19. 19
    Use your protagonist and Edelgard as vanguards against Dedue, who is a tough tank. Utilize magic and long-range attacks.
Tips
  • Blue sparkling objects found during exploration can be items, quest-related items, or lost items. Some are books that increase Professor level experience. Refer to the "Exploring the monastery" section for item spawn details.
  • Lost items can be given to specific characters. The table below lists characters with recruit options, choice-based dialogue, or who can receive lost items on this route.
  • Activity points are limited but increase with Professor level.
  • The Mock Battle is a practice battle where defeated units are not permanently lost, even in Classic mode. The number of units is limited for this battle.
