When Rune Factory 3 Special begins, Raven is one of the very first romance options that you’ll meet. After Micah wakes up in Sharance, she’ll show you around your new tree house and be the stoic member of the welcoming committee. While she takes some time to warm up to people, she’s a great character and could be a good love interest for someone.
Where do you find Raven in Rune Factory 3 Special?
The easiest way to find Raven is to head to where she lives and works in Rune Factory 3 Special. It’ll be open every day from 9am to 6pm. Stopping by to chat and give gifts is pretty easy, since she’s so predictable.
Also, keep in mind that when you take Raven on dates, you should go to Sol Terrano Star Dunes.
What gifts should you give Raven in Rune Factory 3 Special
Raven is pretty easy to romance in Rune Factory 3 Special. Her most loved gifts are pendants you’ll craft. So say the Star or Sun Pendant. This requires quite a bit of work, however. You’ll need to first make a Silver Pendant, which needs Iron and Silver, and level 20 crafting level. Then, you take that two Fire Crystals to make a Sun Pendant or that and one Light and one Dark Crystal for a Star Pendant.
It’s much easier to just give her crystals or flowers instead. Those are both types of gifts she likes. So you could, say, go with an Earth, Fire, Water, or Wind Crystal. As for flowers, things like Charm Blue, Moondrop, Pink Cat, and Toyherb all work.
