Each route cell is the Support level with that route’s lord / the Renown level you need. “Also needs” is the extra condition: gold, items, a request or a paralogue. Where a cost differs by route it is listed in Cai / Dietrich / Theodora / Leda order.
These values are cross-checked between RPG Site ↗ and Game8 ↗ on October 11: the two guides agree on 144 of the route requirements below. ‡ marks the two where they still disagree, § two disagreements the in-game Conditions screen settles, and † a value only one guide gives. Auto means the ally joins automatically on that route, Tutorial the recruitment-tutorial ally, and — that they can’t be recruited there. Kingy has not verified these in a save.

| Ally | Route | RPG Site | Game8 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Esmeralda | Cai | Support 3, Renown 7 | Support 2, Renown 7 |
| Halvin | Cai | Support 3, Renown 9 | Support 3, Renown 5 |
| Ninae | Leda | Support 3, Renown 6 | Support 3, Renown 8 |
| Peter | Dietrich | Support 3, Renown 8 | Support 3, Renown 9 |
Esmeralda on Cai’s path is settled: in a Cai’s path save, her in-game Conditions read Support Lv 2 and Renown Lv 7 (Jay Dunna’s recruit guide ↗, 5:08), matching Game8. Her third condition reads Requires Negotiation (Hard). Ninae on Leda’s path is settled the same way: MrEOD’s Ninae video ↗ shows Support Lv 3, Renown Lv 8 and 1 Paradise Fish in a save whose lord is not Dietrich, and both guides give 3/6 on Cai’s and Theodora’s paths, so that value is Leda’s, matching Game8. For Halvin and Peter, plan for the higher value until your game shows otherwise. Three smaller differences:
- Tutorial recruits (Guzran on Cai, Catania on Leda, Yang Jie on Dietrich, Sofia on Theodora): RPG Site calls them automatic through the recruitment tutorial; Game8 lists Support 1, Renown 2.
- Yang Jie on Leda’s route: only Game8 gives a value (3/8).
- Kiroc’s Pure Water: both guides say 8 on Cai’s and Theodora’s routes; Fextralife ↗ says 3. Pure Water is sold in Dagsion’s Item Shop.
Tobias isn’t in Game8’s list. RPG Site places him on Theodora’s route and Pocket Tactics ↗ on Leda’s, so his route is unresolved. Bonaventure (Theodora, automatic) is also from RPG Site alone.
What remains incomplete
First dates, map locations and the exact wording of each request still need checking; the requests are left general where the guides word them differently. The external guides also cover later-story recruits with plot spoilers; this Part I table leaves them out.
The community recruitment spreadsheet ↗ cites RPG Site as its source, so it is not independent confirmation.
For the recruitment sequence, see How to recruit allies. For prerequisite battles, see Paralogues & deadline quests.
