How to Recruit Saphir

Talk to Saphir in Chapter 19

Fire Emblem Engage - How to Recruit Saphir

Saphir can be recruited in Chapter 19: The Dead Town by speaking to her with Alear or Diamant during battle, or by talking to her while exploring post-battle. If you were not able to talk to Saphir before departing, Saphir will still ask to join your party in a cutscene.

Recommended to Recruit Saphir in Battle

We recommend you recruit Saphir during battle instead of after to add more allies to your party that will help you fight Marni and Mauvier.

In both casual and classic mode, there is the risk of Saphir getting permanently killed in battle if you do not talk to her immediately. Saphir cannot be recruited anymore if she dies before you talk to her, and the chances of this is higher in difficult or maddening mode.

Leif Bond Level 18

High HP, great Str, and a 0 in Mag make Saphir a clear-cut unit for the Warrior role.

Hold Out+++ provides Saphir with a safety net for triggering Wrath when starting combat.

When paired with Saphir's Will to Win, Vantage++ offers Saphir an answer against speedy and evasive units.

Saphir Best Emblem

Recommended Emblems

LeifLeif RoyRoy IkeIke

As Saphir is a unit meant for offense in the front lines, Leif, Roy, or Ike are the best Emblems to compliment her high HP and Str.

Leif grants Saphir a higher chance of breaking an enemy with his range of weapons, while a high enough bond with Roy can grant Saphir a higher Res to help her withstand her weakness for magic.

Besides gaining Ike's powerful stat buffs with his skill, his Great Aether attack allows Saphir to boast her high Str stat with a powerful blow with a larger AoE.

Saphir Paired Ending and Romance

Pact Ring with Saphir

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 Saphir 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.

Saphir's Memento


Saphir's hair clasp. She gave it to me as proof of our partnership. Unusually sentimental of her.

Apart from obtaining an exclusive ending with Saphir 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 her.

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.
