Walkthrough for Chapter 4 of Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation, 'Hoshido'. Learn how to defeat Faceless enemies, rescue Sakura and Hinoka, and utilize Dragon Veins.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The chapter begins with a tutorial on Danger Area (29. Danger Area), showing how to view enemy movement range with the (A) button and all enemy ranges with the (X) button.
  2. 2
    Move any character to the glowing yellow tile in front of the village to the north to trigger a tutorial on Villages (26. Villages).
  3. 3
    Visiting this village rewards you with a “Goddess Icon”, permanently increasing Luck by four points.
  4. 4
    When selecting Kaze for the first time, he will mention a Vulnerary, triggering a tutorial on Trading Items (16. Trading Items). To trade, move next to a character, select “Trade”, and choose items to exchange.
  5. 5
    Your objective is to reach Sakura and Hinoka in the upper left of the map. You start in the lower right.
  6. 6
    Your starting units are Rinkah, Kaze, and your protagonist.
  7. 7
    There are two main routes to reach your siblings: go straight north, or go left then north.
  8. 8
    Along the way, your protagonist must activate Dragon Veins to flatten hills, making terrain more navigable.
  9. 9
    Kaze, as a Ninja, can debuff enemies and attack from a distance.
  10. 10
    Rinkah has high Speed and Defense, making her effective in passive combat pairings.
  11. 11
    After a few turns, Ryoma will mention Auto-Battle (30. Auto-Battle), allowing the AI to control your units.
  12. 12
    Be cautious as you advance north, as enemies tend to group up in the north-middle of the map, which can lead to multiple tag-team attacks in one turn.
  13. 13
    Fight your way north, use the protagonist to melt hills, utilize ranged attacks, and heal when necessary.
Tips
  • Faceless are Nohrian cannon fodder, comparable to “Risen” from Awakening.
  • Sakura is vulnerable, while Hinoka should defend her.
  • Ryoma will also advance towards his siblings, engaging Faceless along the way.
  • Kaze's debuffs and ranged attacks are effective against Faceless.
  • Rinkah's Speed and Defense make her a good partner for Kaze or the protagonist.
  • Be mindful of enemy grouping towards the north-middle of the map.
