Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes Mercedes Guide

This guide will cover in detail everything from recruiting Mercedes to her abilities in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes.

Mercedes is a kindhearted, strong, and fearless warrior who is an adopted daughter of a rich merchant and also happens to be a former imperial noble. Mercedes is one of the diverse characters in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes due to her abilities that serve both as an attacker and a support player.

Mercedes is a member of the Azure Gleam and this guide will cover in detail everything from recruiting her to her abilities along with how to play as Mercedes in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes.

How to Recruit Mercedes

Mercedes can be recruited while playing either the Scarlet Blaze route or during the Azure Gleam Route in FEW: Three Hopes. At this point in time, we are not sure if there is a way to recruit her while playing the Golden Wildfire Route.

You will face Mercedes as your enemy during The Maiden’s Perils quest on Scarlet Blaze Route and while you are playing the Azure Gleam route, you will face her while on the Crisis in Fhirdiad quest.

The method to recruit is pretty much the same as the other characters. Once you defeat Mercedes, you will have to use the Persuade strategy which will cost you 20 Strategy Points in order to recruit her.

I hate fighting… but if both sides have reason to do so, there’s no avoiding it. Vow to create an age of peace.
Both of my parents were great cooks. I even remember them teaching each other recipes when I was young. Cute, don’t you think? Ask her to teach you how to cook.
I wonder how my mother is faring. I do get letters from her sometimes, at least. Say she should go see her.
