I'm up to like 35 Bath Towels so far lol. 28 Bond Units created by this process. 253 total accessories have been sent to me. 2,600 Battle Points, 3,102 Visit Points and counting. Still a long way to go but the momentum of this process is helping a ton.

I was going down the list randomly and I looked up and I was like... no... no way! Then I counted it after making sure I went down in order and it was only 30, I thought it would be much higher, but yea. It's still a hell of a grind, but this helps a ton.

Those badges for getting 9,999 Battle and Visit Points really appeal to me, plus the idea of unlocking all those bonus items for each playthrough sounds awesome as well. My grind started out, as I'm sure many have, by going up and down the Battle Ranking list (because they are all 1 turn or Easy Skill Clears). I stumbled onto an interesting detail, every 30 castles you visit, it resets the list of castles you visited. ie on the 31st Castle you visit, the 1st castle you visited is now available to visit again. So what I've been doing is using the accessory list and coordinating with Reddit and a few different Facebook groups for Fire Emblem, and if you send me an accessory, then I visit your castle, I add your calling card, and I send you an accessory multiple times per day. Many people are doing the same thing, so the more often you send them accessories, the more often they visit you back, and your Battle and Visit points start to multiply. You can see in my signature here that I had only 666 Visit points when I took that screenshot four days ago - now I am up to 2,559 Visit Points and 2,180 Battle Points, obviously a long way to go, but when I got home from work today I was about two hundred behind those numbers, so I'm averaging maybe 4-6% of the way to the Badges each day. Hope this is helpful! It's working great for me! P.S. - I have created 15 Bond Units with people by doing this, so far.

Yea if the recruitment speech wasn't like - yay I'll join you I would have not saved afterwards. On Casual I had no trouble with anyone else, whether I talked to them or not.

I've had that happen - still recruits them at the end of the mission. The cut scene said she was joining the team, and then she just wasn't there. Maybe some are more strict than others.

You can buy one - but there is no guarantee the item you want will be there. You'd have to jump around to a few different Castles to check, I usually only go to towns with Tier3 weapon vendors as they have the best selection. If I was smart I'd do this to hunt for Sale items also... but yea. The odds of finding a Shining Bow would be pretty low.

If using Nohrian Trust skill to access your Guard Stance partner's skills, they only activate the "Trigger" skills that have a chance of happening *in combat*. So if you had Profiteer on your Guard Stance secondary character, that would not trigger, but Sol would, because it triggers *in combat* vs. just moving around like Profiteer. That said, I use Felicia as my A rated support character for my Avatar, and she carries around Sol, Rend Heaven, Lethality, Astra, and Pavise so if I have Nohrian Trust on my Avatar she can use all of those skills when attacking or defending. It's pretty amazing but took a long time to collect 5 triggered combat skills via My Castle.

So I know that in Classic mode, if the child dies, they're gone. They are not recruited. I understand that, so don't tell me that, I am playing on Casual Hard Mode and had plenty of instances where the child died as part of their recruitment level and you still gain the character to your party afterwards. (I'm usually farming Gold in Prologues using Profiteer/Salvage Blow so I can be careless sometimes, thus the deaths, but it's casual so it should have been fine.) I was doing the quest in Conquest to get Soleil, and she died, but after the battle she was in the cut scene talking about joining the team (and wanting to molest our women). So per the cut scene she joined our team - however when I got to town she wasn't there. I tired Googling to see if there was a known issue with this, but it mostly just brings up articles about her Gender Conversion "controversy" so that wasn't helpful. Just wanted to make a post to see if A) people had this issue as well, and B) to warn folks to make sure you don't save afterwards, or have a backup save, in the case that while playing Conquest this happens to you. Hopefully I can get her in Revelations, she seemed like a very fun character. Anyone else encountered this? Or similar?

My Birthright clear has 25 hours 6 minutes, and my Conquest save has 44 hours 7 minutes so far. The game out what... yesterday? lol
