Expeditions are one of the main features in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes that will allow you to raise your support rank with various characters. It’s pretty similar to the Tea Time feature from Three Houses, but there are more locations for you to unlock as well. Here’s a full Expeditions guide for Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, where we’ll break down all the locations you can unlock, and what kind of rewards you get.

Unlocking Expeditions in Fire Emblem Warriors Three Hopes

Expeditions will become available to you pretty early on in the game, once you get past the first four chapters. There are a total of four Expedition locations in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, and we’ve listed them below:

Plains
Forest
Mountains
Waterfront

The locations really just serve as different cosmetic backdrops for your mini dates, and don’t have too much of an impact on your conversations, so feel free to choose whichever you like most. You’ll also unlock more locations as you upgrade the Recreation Quarter, and the material requirements will increase as you unlock each one.

There’s no need to stress out about it, though, as you’ll naturally get the materials to upgrade everything as you progress through the chapters and clear out every side battle.

How to Ask a Character Out on an Expedition

Before you can take a character on an Expedition, you’ll first need to reach C rank support with them. This can be done easily just by doing chores together, sharing meals together, or by embarking on battles together. Once you’ve unlocked the C rank conversation, you’ll be able to start inviting them out on Expeditions.

While at camp, just speak with the character in question and choose the Expedition option. Do note that this will consume one Activity Point, and these are refreshed in between chapters. Whenever a character wants to go on an Expedition with you, the game will also notify you with a prompt on the left side of the screen.

Expedition Rewards

There aren’t exactly any crazy rewards you get for going on Expeditions, but they do serve as a nice boost to your support rank with a character. So if you’re trying to reach A rank with a character quickly, your best bet would be to spam Expeditions with them whenever possible, and give them as many gifts as you can afford.

On each Expedition, you’ll have the chance to strike up conversation three times. Getting all your responses wrong or getting only one correct will give you a small boost, getting two responses correct gives you a medium boost, while getting all three correct gives you a large boost.

All Expedition Question and Answers

Listed below are all of the questions and prompts you can get from each character in the game, along with the correct answer to help keep things moving forward. Big shoutout to Game8 and Attack of the Fanboy, both of which we’ve referenced while putting together our guide.
