Scouting is the means to recruit characters into your roster. Once in possession of a character, any subsequent summons of the character will be converted to "Memories," which are used for the proficiency system.

To see a list of past and current pick-up banners, see Banner History.

Overview

Through the Scout screen, there are four types of scouting, each requiring a specific item to do your recruitment.

For more information on scouting items, refer to Items. Some of these are acquired exclusively through Shop.

Scouting Option Icon Scout Item Description Character Pool Can Get Limited Character?
Premium Scouting Edgar's Freebie Tickets and Dragon Vein Stones Scout through a pick-up banner with a pool consisting of 3★ to 6★, with a select few having an increased 1% chance of being pulled. Featured Rate Ups +

Standard Scouting (pool prior to rate up only)

Pick-Ups Only
Eidos Scouting Edgar's Freebie Tickets and Dragon Vein Stones Scout for Eidos, with a select few having an increased chance of being pulled. Eidos Only n/a
Partner Referrals Partner Referrals Scout a random character within a specified pool of characters for a specific rarity based on the item's tier. Standard + Limited Scouting Yes
Partner Scout Tickets Partner Scout Tickets Scout a character through a selection of a particular rarity based on the item's tier or description. Specified If Specified
Recruitment Flyers Recruitment Flyers Scout through the latest pool of every character, though the chances are weighed heavily towards getting 1★ to 3★. Flyers Only + Standard Scouting No
Recommendation Letters Recommendation Letter Scout a specific character. Specific Character If Specified


Scouting Pools

General

There are different scouting pools depending on the method. You can refer to these lists to have an idea of which character is available where:

Pool Description
Flyers Only Only available through through Flyers
Standard Scouting The standard pool of characters
Limited Scouting Only available in dedicated limited banners.
Main Story Only as quest rewards.
Special Login Event Only as login rewards on particular time frame or condition.
Category:Ether Shop Only Only through Ether Exchange Shop

New Characters on Standard Scouting Pool

Whenever a new character is added to the game, typically through their debut rate-up banner, non-limited characters become available in the Standard Scouting pool for flyers and referrals, while limited characters are added to referrals.

When characters debut via a pick-up banner, they tend to be kept exclusive to that banner until it is concluded.

Premium Scout Items

Premium Scout Items are typically available in the shop and refer to banners for their pools. They do not have an expiry.

For more information, refer to Shop History and Banner History, respectively.

Item Estimated Rate
Partner Referrals Partner Referrals grant you a random pull with a selection of units in a particular rarity, usually up to the latest one available when the referral is released.
Partner Scout Tickets Partner Scout Tickets grants you a specific unit within a selection in a particular rarity. It has the latest Standard Scouting characters and Limited Characters released 6 months ago.
Recommendation Letters Partner Scout Tickets grants you a specific unit within a selection in a particular rarity. It has the latest Standard Scouting characters and Limited Characters released 6 months ago.

Leonhart, Robin 0-31
Barboros (New Look) 3-27

Recruitment Flyers

These are common drops from story/event quests that can recruit characters of any rarity. Notably, the only way to obtain the most 1★ and 2★ characters and the odds of getting any character above three starts are weighted very low. 

It is advised not to farm specifically for flyers.

Flyer Drop Rates

There are four types of flyers that recruit a certain number of characters depending on the tier. There is a total 90% chance to drop any of these items through only Story and Event quests.

They can also be obtained through event shops. Quest Stamina cost does not affect drop rates.

Item Number of Scouts Drop Rate
10 Blank Flyers scouts 1 character. 65%
1 Green Flyer scouts 1 character. 14%
1 Blue Flyer scouts 2 characters. 8%
1 Purple Flyer scouts 3 characters. 3%

Flyer Scout Rates

Rarity Estimated Rate
1★ 24%
2★ 35%
3★ 40%
4★ 0.50%
5★ 0.10%
6★ 0.02%

Note: This data is empirically gathered, and is the result of 7,000 flyer pulls.

Premium Scouting

This is the typical way of obtaining characters, drawing from a pool of 3★ to 6★ characters with a few specified to have a +1% increased rate as their "pick-up rate." This rate draws from the pick-up rate of 3★.

Pick-ups give improved chances to scout particular characters by taking a 1% rate up from the 3★ appearance rate for each pick-up character. These banners usually come in pairs, with one coming out delayed by around a week. If there is a new character for a particular banner, it will be exclusive to that banner until it ends. Afterward, they will be part of the standard pool. Characters labeled as "Limited Time Only" are part of limited scouting and will only be available again once their banner reruns.

Due to how the rate up works, there is only roughly a 0.5% rate difference between a rate up to 6★ and a rate up to 5★.

Also, currently, there is no benefit to doing 10 pulls aside from convenience.

Eidos Scouting

Eidoi are generally obtained through a dedicated scout banner. It uses the same pull currency as the character scouting. Duplicate Eidos pulls are converted into Ether which is used in the Ether Exchange Shop.

For the pool of scoutable Eidoi, see Category:Standard_Eidos_Scouting

Should You Pull?

Generally, content difficulty-wise, most units are pretty capable of clearing content without the need of Eidoi. So the biggest draw of the banner is to access more stills exclusive to the system.

Since it's impact is not necessary to clear content, and competes with character pull currency, it is not recommended to go all in.

At the very least, do enough pulls in order for your party to be fully slotted with Eidoi, even in most cases it is simply an HP bump.
