Learn how to set up and utilize StreetPass for Bravely Default. Get guest profiles, Friend Summons, and extra Norende residents by connecting with other players.
Alright, let's talk about StreetPass in Bravely Default! It's a neat little feature that lets you connect with other players even when you're not actively playing together. Think of it as a way to get some sweet bonuses just by walking around with your 3DS or 2DS.
How to Set Up StreetPass:
First things first, you need to access your inbox. You can do this by pressing Left on the D-pad when you're on the world map (not in battle), or by tapping the arrow on the far left of your bottom screen. The very first time you open it, the game will prompt you to register your StreetPass data. This just means adding a Mii to your Bravely Default profile. Once that's done, you're all set to start StreetPassing!
If you ever decide you don't want to use StreetPass anymore, you can turn it off in your 3DS/2DS System Settings under 'Data Management' and then 'StreetPass Management'.
Receiving Tags:
To get StreetPass tags, you need to have your 3DS or 2DS on, either fully on or in sleep mode. Just make sure it's not in the middle of another wireless communication. You don't even need the game running, but it's helpful for rebuilding Norende and grabbing SP. Then, just go about your day – walk around in real life, and if you pass by another 3DS/2DS owner or a StreetPass relay point, you might get a tag!
When you successfully tag someone (or a relay), you'll see a green light pop up in the top right corner of your 3DS/2DS. For a Bravely Default tag to come through, the other player needs to have registered their data for this game too. If both of those things happen, you'll see an 'Update' symbol next to your inbox, meaning you've got a tag!
Benefits of StreetPass:
So, what's in it for you? When you access your inbox after tagging someone, the game saves their profile, and their special move can be used as a Friend Summon in battle. Plus, for every person you tag, you get an extra resident for Norende village, and if they were sending one, you'll get a Nemesis too.
It's a good idea to update your own 'sent move' from time to time. Nobody likes getting a weak summon! To do this, go to the 'Summon Friend' command in battle, select 'Send', and pick your best move. After the battle, your move will be updated for others to use.
StreetPass Relays:
If you don't run into many Bravely Default players in your area, look for a Nintendo Zone. Your 3DS/2DS can automatically connect to these and act as a StreetPass relay. This means you could potentially get tags from players all over the country!
