The MOST OBSCURE Fire Emblem Three Houses TRIVIA You (Probably) Never Heard Of

[@Faerghast]

super casual video for today. Happy October! Be sure to comment down below if you know some random 3H trivia yourself. Or if there are tidbits here that you never heard of before! I know many of you know what the Viskam is lol. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rprJlmObm6yJi5Y

[@dljb7463]

I only knew the viskam once you described it since the wiki mentions it as a sword and the name just clicked as you described its range

[@CAPAE]

The White Dragon Scarf does not need any of those requirements. All you need to do is rescue Flayn the first week of the month. I am looking at my Scarf right now on as the Black Eagles right before we lay siege of Garreg Mach. I am told you can do it on other routes as well and that birthday does not matter. However, I always make Byleth's birthday his actual birthday (9/20) and thus it is skipped every time. I receive the Scarf as soon as the next chapter begins.

[@Faerghast]

@@CAPAE "All you need to do is rescue Flayn the first week of the month." Maybe it was worded vaguely but that is exactly what i said. Its the first and easiest way to get it. The 2nd method is if you wanted one but didn't get one through Flayn. Its just another way to get it, not a prerequisite to get one. But perhaps the 2nd method needs more testing. eh

[@CAPAE]

@@Faerghast Yes, you are right. I apologize for the misunderstanding. First week of the month is correct, but I never heard about the others.

[@charlest3m443]

If you have the Anna quests you can steal extra trade secrets from some side battles. This allows you to finish the quests and thus get the rewards faster.

[@Serena69420]

I wish enemies could use weapons like Silver bow+ Silver sword+ Or any of the weapons that are forged (They should of given enemies forged weapons in maddening)

[@OriginalRaisins]

There are actually loads of good stealables in the game. Magic staff on chapter 6, the rings and seals on the grondor map, the above stat boosters. You just have to keep an eye out for them. Not to mention you can just slot out the steal skill whenever you don't see any, you don't have to keep it equipped.

[@trebmal587]

It is one aspect of the game which show that its developpement was a bit rushed. There is also a lack of special weapons on regular enemies like the ones dealing extra damages on mounted or armored units, making using the skills that prevent such weaknesses kinda worthless. If Three Houses had two or three extra months of developpement, the game wouldn't feel as "cheap" in some areas. Now that Fire Emblem has become such a big name for Nintendo, I wish they would give Intelligent System more time and budget to let them reach the serie's true potential.

[@niedude]

@@trebmal587 Ironically one of the things I'm noticing on my first playthrough of Cindered Shadows: there are a LOT of Cavalry with Horseslayer spears to the point it feels like the only enemies that use spears all carry Horseslayer. Cindered Shadows has a huge problem with overcrowded maps and BUSTED assassin class enemies, but I really enjoyed the addition of Horseslayer enemies even though we only have one single character that is able to reclass into cavalry movement type

On my first play through, I got the scarf for jumping right to the Flayn rescue mission. I missed out Dorothea’s birthday and two weeks of training. Not worth

[@Howlingcargo]

It's worth noting that the Viskam seems to be a magic weapon, at least from my experience. I've been using it a lot to grind class XP on characters without having to worry about durability, and have noticed that Res-heavy enemies always take two or more rounds to kill, even when I double. The user also loses attack power when using a battalion that lowers magic attack.

[@Happyfoam-lw3yt]

My record is five.

[@natebardwell]

I've got 7 of them on my current playthrough. I'll pick them up whenever I see them and if I'll send the traveler out with any after two for the rest of my playthrough so others can use it. The game is so grindy that frankly I think it's good for players who are trying to get a bunch of abilities or mastery-driven builds faster to actually play them without hundreds of hours.

[@chaoscontroller316]

Viskam really was a busted secret I was never supposed to buy? In my Blue Lion run, I found and bought 7 of those things. Edit: If you find one early game, *GIVE IT TO LYSITHEA.* She will become your ultimate mortar, and combined with Thyrsus, she can win you the game by herself.

[@Videokirby]

Fun Fact: The Prayer Ring's secret effect also works on *enemies* holding them. Just found that out in Ingrid's Paralogue on Maddening.

[@ThatAzureFluff]

Huh, that explains alot...

[@WingSlash]

One thing that I noticed on my 2nd playthrough of Azure Moon is that if you don't have a support rank with Seteth when the cutscene that kicks off the chapter of the battle of Garreg Mach rolls around, he actually refuses Rhea's request to have him help Byleth on their quest in the scene where he & Flayn promise to fight alongside them. It doesn't change anything, Seteth still joins your party, there's just a bit more of a demoralizing scene with him & Rhea. Not sure if that was known, but it did surprise me when I came across it.

[@HHopebringer]

That prayer ring application, my gosh. I had Petra use one on Hard Difficulty and Solon went after her; landing a blow that would have left her at like -11 HP. Nope. Petra survives, then buries two arrows in the Savior of None. I had *no idea* it did that until watching this video. Petra didn't learn Miracle from an Adjutant or (shudder) mastering the Priest class, she was saved by her own gear!

[@chaoscontroller316]

I thought it was some DLC item from late game. You have no idea how *BUSTED* Lysithea becomes when paired with a Viskam.

[@Ziizoe]

I know that at least a few supports actually affects another support conversation, for example Sylvain and Marianne's B support has Marianne comment about Sylvain teaching her to smile more in her A support with Ashe, which I have seen myself and is the only reason I even knew to look up different ones. I've heard that it happens with Ingrid's B support with Dorothea if you've done Annette's supports with her and if you view Felix and Mercedes C support after Mercedes' paralogue but I have yet to see video or screenshots of either of those. But I have seen a screenshot that if you do not have Ingrid, Sylvain and Felix's B support adds an extra line and changes Sylvain's expression It's hard to find any record on any of most of these and unless you know exactly what to look up, all you can do to find them is Ctrl+F with "(if" to find variations on literally every character/support wiki page, or getting super lucky with random testing, so I'd say that's pretty obscure lol

[@MidnightCapricorn2696]

Although I don't have evidence of it, nor do I have my copy of 3H currently, I can confirm that Ingrid's B with Dorothea does change. When Dorothea makes a remark about makeup, Ingrid says something along the lines of "Annette's been helping me with makeup".

[@phantomslash311]

[@niedude]

There is at least one other instance of difficulty changing the script that I can think of. During the first end of month event of the story, in the very first mock battle where you can only field half of your house to fight the other two houses, Hanneman and Manuela will NOT join the battle in Normal difficulty but will join it in Hard (and I assume Maddening). I know this because I played my first two runs on Normal and was kind of upset that the other teachers said they'd "go easy on me because I'm new" (their dialogue reasoning for not joining the battle). This week I started my first Hard run and was VERY pleasently surprised to see Hanneman and Manuela take to the field.

[@Faerghast]

@@Salron_ lemme know if you know anymore. We're planning a follow-up video if there are enough things to mention.

[@Salron_]

@@Faerghast ​ Off the top of my head theres two things that comes to mind. This first one I saw rengor1997 mention somewhere At a certain point, the lords + hubert will get their personal battalions when rejoining the party. For Edelgard and Hubert on CF, they receive theirs at the start of ch 12, for Dimitri and Claude, they receive theirs at the start of ch 13. The game will autolevel their auth rank to C to ensure they can equip it, but due to an oversight this also can potentially cost you auth rank exp. If the character in question has a C or higher auth rank and any progress towards their next auth rank, they will lose that progress and be reset back to the base of their current rank. So for example: Dimitri has D+ rank auth at the end of ch12, the game will then autolevel his auth to C so he can come with his battalion equipped, thats working as intended. Other scenario: Dimitri ends ch 12 with A rank auth and has made progress towards A+, Since he is above C rank he doesn't need any autoleveling to his auth, however he will be stripped of all progress he made towards A+ and will be back at the base value of A, and that can really suck if you're especially close to the next rank only to lose it. The other thing that comes to mind is that the pegasi in chapter 7 have their AI programmed to prioritize Byleth over all other targets, just like Kostas in prologue. This is VERY useful knowledge to have on maddening as it allows you to put other units in their range with impunity while Byleth draws aggro. I'm not sure if this applies to Ingrid because I always ask her for mission assistance that month to ensure I don't have to deal with her as an enemy unit if shes not recruited. I learned that from elitemode's CF Maddening LTC, you can see that in action here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6eTcnZtfK6dobc If anything else comes to mind i'll post another reply to this later.

[@Faerghast]

I watched this after the follow-up, and I’m surprised, because I actually knew *less* about the trivia in this than the trivia in that. The only one I completely knew about was the Dragon Scarf, which I think I actually got in my first playthrough, because I did Silver Snow, and my habit of checking the entire monastery on the first day of each month meant that I would’ve had to actively ignore the obvious plot thread to do anything else that month. I rushed to rescue Flayn, and all I got was this nifty scarf. I also knew that you could get the Scythe of Sariel, but I haven’t played that specific paralogue quite yet, so I didn’t know about the removal of dialogue on hard and maddening difficulties, which is honestly kinda BS.

How weird that they wouldn't just name it "Miracle Ring". I don't recall if it happened on maddening or not but I do play on classic so that small surprise saved me a divine pulse ^^

[@ItsBofu]

In Silver Snow, I believe that if you modify a Classic Mode save to make any of the Empire students not recruited (not dead), I believe they show up in the same spots as enemy units where they would in the Golden Deer route. The same thing happens with Felix and Annette having potential enemy spawns in the Blue Lions route, which is more well-known.

I was aware of most things in some way aside from the white dragon scarf though. If it is post time skip when you receive it though, how does Rhea give it to you? Or would it be if Flayn dies? Also I only recently came across the Viskam when on my Maddening route.

[@LunaticFullMoon]

Presumably Flayn gives it to you since in Silver Snow, both her and Seteth have plot armor so even if you get them killed in combat they'll still be hanging around until the route ends since they essentially take over the role of the lord for it. This is why it's only possible to miss out on Seteth in Verdant Wind and Azure Moon too.

[@annarenfold438]

Perfectly honest, my very first run was going to be Crimson Flower. But I didn't know anything about Three Houses and the many ways you developed supports, so by the time I had made Edelgard a Fortress Knight and Hubert a Warlock, Rhea forced me to betray my two strongest and most prepared units. After the shock, I realized that my tank and my main damage source were gone and nobody was strong enough to replace them and let alone help me win the next chapter. I quit the game for a while and to me, the secret tidbit is and will always be the fact you have to specifically and actively build support points with Edelgard and then speak with her on a fairly specific moment. Back when the game was new, I was far from the only person who got robbed of their strongest units and the chance to fight alongside the first axe wielding lord in a long time. I felt as mad as when I lost Kaze during my first time playing Fates. These kinds of support-based story changes are quite interesting but they ended up being frustrating because I just didn't know anything about the games the first time I picked them up, and in both occasions, I lost my most used and absolutely favorite units in the respective playthrough. Future runs just didn't give me the same level ups.

I did the contrary of the coronation thing lol. I talked with edelgard in every chance and i didn't knew why my support points were not growing anymore.

I randomly decided to have Manuella wait on that tile because she had nothing else to do, and there was some dialog! One of the most fun Battalions, esp in NG+ where you can chain dancer battalions (and Stride) to clear maps in 1 turn =D

[@wubberson4450]

It seems I only knew as much as you. I actually got a Viskam on my first playthrough (didn’t use it cause it was cheap, though). And the Enbarr invasion stuff was a no brainer, since you have all the time in the world to do it.

[@derpybubblez7746]

I've never played this game, so this is all new information!

[@carlociotola7137]

Because of my birthday, and love for the character of Flayn, I always got only the white dragon scarf until my last run, where I got the brooch from Dimitri

[@gg_sam7847]

I recently stole from Arianrohd War Master with Dancer Dimitri

[@jelyse14]

oh wow, I didnt know that the opera house dancer battalion was an obscure one to get. I got it on my very first playthrough

[@SirVyre]

Actually didn't know very many of these. I did my Maddening Run NG+ off'd my first clear of game for Blue LIons but I went Crimson Flower... pain! Coulda been more painful I guess... Then I did a hard mode play of Golden Deer. Then a Silver Snow. Then I did a new game non-plus maddening play of Blue Lions, got my gold title screen, and haven't bothered with the game since. A lot of these are things I never would have even wondered about, so thanks for the info!

[@timothyhansen6581]

Well, the only ones I knew about where the Prayer Ring, the fact there is a Crimson Flower route - but not how to get to it, & about Caspar being the one needed to get the Scythe. The only ones I cared to learn about where how to get to the CF route (And I just checked. I'm currently in Chapter 9 & apparently have avoided interacting with Edelgard to the point where I'm not even at C- yet. Which is good, since the file I'm currently on is the SS route anyway.) & the Enbarr Invasion Secrets - which I'll probably ahve to go back to by the time I get to it.

[@monkeman8759]

It appears the guy on thegamer that mekkah criticised was right, the viskam is broken after all

[@JustAnotherHaiku]

The only ones I knew were the lesser deployment slots in Silver Snow and the Enbarr secrets. How interesting!

[@nevets2371]

I found out about the prayer ring’s miracle skill when the warrior that was holding it didn’t die when I tried to kill him.

[@Wolffangs100]

The scarf is a new one to me.

[@dommvignali774]

You also forgot to mention equipping a matching crest stone to a character's crest boosts the crest's power. This is also true for Three Hopes.

[@jedimasterpickle3]

...I literally saw a Viskam the other day. Didn't buy it, though. Kinda thought the 1g purchase was strange and forgot about it. I want to keep my Maddening run legit anyway :)

[@illialidur8244]

This was great! I really enjoyed it

[@jonunciate7018]

I remember when my little sister bought a viscam. I told her it was a hacked item and it took a long time to convince her to get rid of it. As an FE veteran she didn't need it ruining her first playthrough.

[@tonymack]

I knew about the macuil evil repelling company and the opera company volunteers in enbarr. I'd heard the viskam stuff before and the edelgard stuff. Some of this was interesting like the edelgard dialogue

[@lazykatie42069]

ngl I played on normal and still didn't know that you can get the Scythe of Sariel by having Caspar defeat the death knight until learning about it on the internet, the hint went completely over my head

[@jayhall7398]

I never knew the prayer ring, scarf, and Enbarr Invasion secrets

[@nomiflower9707]

Aw, in silver snow you miss Edelgard 😭 But nobody misses Hubert

[@hilderbrandish5033]

I got ahold of a viskam once and it was great

[@Lynn17]

Holy shit I did not know about the scarf. It almost makes me want to do Silver Snow again just to get it. (I pretty much never finish chapter 6 in the first week, I like to level and support grind too much.)

[@elvisstrunk7789]

I dunno if this is something people are aware of or not, and it certainly isn't useful. But I'll share anyway. On Black Eagles, if you never do the mission to unlock weapon forging, it'll automatically unlock during the final exploration of Part 1, at the temporary encampment. I imagine this is because the NPC found there isn't tied to that quest to begin with, and the game just assumes any reasonable person would have done all of the early, super-easy unlocking quests. So it doesn't bother checking. Something that probably IS more well known, is that, at roughly the same point of the game, Edelgard and Hubert will have their authority raised to C automatically, even if you've never trained it a single point. This happens so that their unique battalions can be properly equipped by them. Note that this is NOT the same as how the lords can get automatically leveled up during the timeskip, as what I'm referring to happens a bit earlier than that.

[@jennifermayer4890]

i happend to get the white the white dragon scarf on my first run because i imputed my own birthday and choose the black egales without nowing crimson flower exsisted

[@chirnosans]

the viskam is the reason why I was able to beat that yuri constance paralogue in maddening lol

[@Aurirang]

I had two characters with Rescue. :D (Church mode, maddening) That paralogue was horrendous. But with alot of rescue-shenanigans, i managed to beat it.

[@johnathanedwards9054]

@@Aurirang I just brought a lot of calvary and archers and turned out alright.

[@Aurirang]

@@johnathanedwards9054 I did Abyss and church only members, so my options were slightly limited. :D (And a token Bernie because she was the only one to survive the slaughter that was battle before dawn) Gotta say, the MVP's were definitely Seteth (Rank A lance skill is super busted), Yuri (Only one not getting doubled by most enemies and dodgy enough to make a bit of a dodge-tank since i didn't have a tank at all), Hapi (Who managed to draws Rheas attacks on herselv, saving the rest fromg etting anihilated), constance (who did bullshit amount of magic damage.)and Flayn (Who was our dancer and a surprisingly good one at that).

[@morbid333]

I didn't know the first one, I've never even used steal.

[@turtellok4964]

I knew the white dragon scarf thing, the edelgard C+ support thing and the thing with the church and the opera house in enbarr. The fact that it's possible to miss seteth seems so weird to me

[@tristanellinghoven6717]

It kinda makes sense though

[@betrayfate9772]

I didn't even know the white dragon scarf was rare or easy to miss considering I always got it on every playtrhough

[@gennysherard]

My little siblings played Black Eagles route for their first Fire Emblem game ever and both failed to support Edelgard so I got to see that one by proximity. I also got to play the hardest difficulty of the Immaculate One fight: aka with two completely overleveled characters and everyone else sitting around 20. They were playing Normal Casual of course which meant they just let their characters die on maps super early so only Byleth and I think it was Dorothea? leveled up. They had no money and all of their equipment was broken, most of their battalions depleted. These were legitimately the hardest levels I ever played through because they broke the game so hard lol My youngest sister is a pro now, she's played the game more than I have, each route multiple times. She's been playing since the game came out when she was 9, plays hard classic and just speeds through all her playthroughs.

[@liampatterson7495]

People talking about birthday stuff in the game is kinda funny to me. Given my birthday is December 26th I thought the game would just adjust the calendar to make a certain mission happen on an unfortunate date every single time. Lol

[@shadexvii3975]

I knew beating Death Knight with Caspar would be important, but on my GD play through I’m on, I never really leveled Caspar or Mercedes in combat, so neither of them could hope to fight Death Knight. Though now I’m sad I missed his weapon. The artifact was nice though. I didn’t know any except the dialogue ones, but I didn’t know it gave rewards
