Is anyone able to recruit Scylla?

[PinhaT]

I keep getting her hearts to high (6 hearts) and I have no friends in my active party and she'll just keep saying her line about not wanting to be grouped up unless she's with someone she likes. Is she bugged?

you need to recruit her without any companion with you, I recommend make sure you can handle your self couple round alone at same floor she spawns. Them give her couple time follow you make sure you have healing pouch, healing book or big heal fruit when you looking for recruit scylla.

I just went about going in the floors alone instead of sending allies back home. It worked out that way. I guess you really have to be alone (like no party to begin with) or else she'll deny you even if you get her love up to max.

I've recruited her in the early access dungeon that has since been removed, but that was before the big patch. According to my notes, if you have no friends with you and then get her like level to the max, then she should get a yellow star above her head. If you invite her after that, she'll join you.

If you got her like level to max first, and then dismissed your friends, that might fail. I haven't tried it that way, but from a programming perspective, I could easily understand that not working. If you dismiss your friends first before even approaching her, then get her like level to max, it should work.

It fails both ways from what I tried (dismiss friends first then raise and vice versa). Like I said above, it sure fire worked by just entering the dungeon up to that point from the Raum Rest area without a party altogether. Got her and decided to get a naughty since I already completed that route and was going to leave.

Now that took some luck. I finally got a Tanukichi without part-timers and the exit was the room over. Just so happened to have a pickaxe and I dug a hole in her shop straight to the exit. It helps to also raise the Naughty's hearts enough to send her home so you don't have to defend her. Do it in one turn and then run for the hills.

Either it is a bug or you are doing it wrong. Because I can recruit Tentacle (the higher tier of Scylla) just fine by sending all of my friends home first and then increase her heart to max. All 6 of my friends are in my party. There is no need for disband.

Confirmation. You don't need to start the floor without friends.

This was literally weeks ago. I even stated in a reply that I got her and how. You have to send your friends home before talking to one (You don't need to have no friends on the floor, you just need to be alone when the scylla you want sees you). If they "see" you with friends, regardless of you not seeing them, they wont join. So if one spawns off screen, just make sure you have no friends with you so you're "alone". If you do the opposite and then try to send your friends home it won't work. I said that above.
