How to Recruit Jean

Talk to Jean During the Paralogue: Budding Talent

Jean will automatically join your party during the Paralogue: Budding Talent. You can have Alear talk to Jean at the Tea-Field Village in battle and he will join you there.

Do not worry about missing this chance after finishing the battle, as Jean himself will ask to join your party in a cutscene after you win. You can only recruit Jean by completing Paralogue, so it is highly recommended to do Paralogues in between Story Chapters.

Recommended Skills

	Healing Light When unit heals an ally with a staff, unit also recovers HP=50% of the amount healed. Micaiah Bond Level 5
	Silence Ward Grants immunity to silence. Micaiah Bond Level 7
	Hold Out+++ If unit had 2 HP or more at start of combat, unit always survives combat with at least 1 HP. Roy Bond Level 18
	Staff Mastery 5 Grants Hit+30 when using a staff. Staves also heal an additional 15 HP. Micaiah Bond Level 17

Healing Light allows Jean to keep both himself and an ally alive for as long as Jean has a Healing Staff equipped. Combining that with Hold Out+++ further amplifies Jean's natural survivability.

Since Jean functions primarily as a Healer, Silence Ward will provide coverage for his weakness to the Silence status effect, while Staff Mastery 5 gives his heals an extra +15 HP.

Marth

Roy

Micaiah

To make up for Jean's low Def stat and growth rate, pair him with Marth to raise his evasion against enemy attack. Besides the Hold Out skill, Roy can help raise Jean's Res and Def with his skills.

Micaiah is ideal for obtaining her healing skills that makes Jean an effective healer and support for your party.

Jean Paired Ending and Romance

Pact Ring with Jean

After clearing Chapter 22, players unlock The Connector Paralogue and can subsequently unlock the Pact Ring. This essentially acts as Fire Emblem Engage's S-Rank Support and romance route.

Alear can then give the ring to Jean once they have attained an A-Rank in support to view a special cutscene, and unlock a page in the reference about the life they lived together.

Jean's Memento

A spare hat Jean gave me after he became my personal physician. It's a reminder that I can always lean on him.

Apart from obtaining an exclusive ending with Jean after giving the Pact Ring, players can also head to Alear's room and check the small table next to their bed to find a memento from him.

While the memento serves no purpose in combat whatsoever unlike the Merc Whistle in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, it further contextualizes the paired ending selected by the player.
