Where to Find Dates in Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave

A guide on where to find dates in Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave to recruit Halvin, detailing both standard desert gathering and the unique gacha method required for Cai.

If you are trying to recruit Halvin in Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave, you are going to need a stash of dates. Polygon notes that finding this specific item requires venturing into the Tarvos agriculture search spot in the eastern part of the desert region. You will need a renown level of six or higher to get past the gatehouses blocking the roads, and you should prepare for a tough fight against high-level sandworms while you search. Alternatively, you can check other agriculture search spots around the desert and north into Orion Canyon, though the drop tables are a bit more cluttered there.

Things get significantly trickier if you are playing as Cai. Because the game restricts Cai from accessing the western side of the continent, you have to rely on a sort of vegetable gacha mechanic instead. You will need to buy veggie crates from various towns and cities, open them in hopes of finding a date, and then plant your single find at a farming spot using manure from the Dagsion stables to boost the yield. It takes a few turns to grow your crop, and there is a small chance it might mutate into a rarer vegetable instead.

Going through all this trouble is definitely worth the effort. Halvin comes equipped with the Adaptability personal ability, granting a solid hit rate bonus after every combat instance, and she shines when paired with accuracy-heavy setups or long-range weapons like the War Bow. Securing those 10 dates is a minor hurdle in a massive campaign, but getting Halvin on your roster gives your squad a reliable frontline asset.
