Claire: Swordsgirl. Cannoness. Sweetheart.

Okay. I'm going to make an attempt I've never tried before: Trying to translate something from Japanese to English. What am I covering? Claire's quest details! This may be inaccurate but I'm tried all of my best to piece everything to at least make some sense in to this information I have tried to translate.

Alright, let's meet our girl first:

Claire
STR 5
AGI 7
HP 4
DEX 6
INT 3
CHA 5

Stances
Novice Guard
  • Sweet Dreamer - 731% ATK, 1 target
  • Armor Crasher - 731% ATK, 4 targets, chance of debuff of 0 DEF for 20 seconds
  • Genocide - 1566% ATK, 1 target
  • Decision - 1872% ATK, 5 targets, DEF -30
Novice Markmanship
Just works like Jose's Basic Cannon stance but with the Wagenlanker being renamed as "Cannon Bump" and having a normal attack, as opposed to Jose's stance where it is skill dependent.

Personal Skill:
Summon Bearwalker
Lasts for 3 minutes with a 2 minute cooldown. Stats unknown and catalyst/required items still in development for balancing.

Prerequisites:

1. You must have Claude Baudez in your party.
2. You must have an Elemental Jewel (sells for 10 Million Vis from the Item Shop).
3. Patience and perseverance is required. Why? This is like a Viki quest! BE FOREWARNED!

Okay, once you're all set and dedicated to get Claire, let's go meet her...

Talk to Claire with Claude as the party leader.




Looks like Claire here wants to travel along with your family but looks like her father-in-law Claude does not allow her to do so. In order for Claire to recieve consent, you will have to do three tasks that Claude will be sending to Claire via mail. You will read each letter on the start of each task.




The first task involves getting a great sword from Jose Cortazar. Head over to Coimbra and talk to Jose. You will be tasked to get items from three different monsters. The monsters have not been identified but I'll edit this post in the future.



After gathering the items, report back to Jose and he'll hand over the great sword. Return to Claire with the great sword and get ready for the second task. This one will involve the Elemental Jewel. Just have it in your inventory and hand it over to Claire. Easy, huh? Well, for you Vis it isn't! :P



Task number three will involve hunting for two rare ores located at the Bonavista River. You'll have to hunt down an Elite Cockatrice (a giant purple parrot) for the ores. If you remember the Mammund from the Viki quest, this is where your dedication and patience will tested once again. It's usual spawn point is at coordinates F4, G4 and H4 but you may have better luck roaming around the Bonavista River.




After getting the ores, head straight to Claude for him to be surprised that all the tasks were accomplish and he'll finally let Claire join you. You'll get Claire's Character Card and there you have it! Well, I'll go ahead and edit this post if there's more details on how her quest goes. Biggest thanks to the following resources:
