How to recruit Jens Macher in Triangle Strategy

Serenoa's journey would be an impossible one were it not for the weapons he and his comrades wield, blades and bows crafted with unparalleled skill. However, even the best tools of war lose their edge eventually. Serenoa and his comrades will need to seek out the assistance of a skilled smithy to keep their edge on the battlefield. Fortunately for House Wolffort, one blacksmith in particular would be happy to sharpen their blades—the encampment smithy, Jens Macher. Here's how to recruit Jens Macher in Triangle Strategy.

Note: Minor character spoilers for Jens Macher follow.

Where to find and recruit Jens Macher

To recruit this smithing prodigy into House Wolffort, first, you'll need to reach Chapter II in order to unlock the encampment smithy. The smithy can be used to upgrade your unit's weaponry, which will have to be utilized quite a few times before you'll be able to catch Jens' attention. If you're having a difficult time obtaining the necessary materials, taking part in the encampment tavern's mock battles can provide the upgrade materials or coin you'll need, all while strengthening Serenoa's convictions in the process.
