Cursed Enemies
1. Killing them grants extra rewards.
2. The curse grant them one random buff. On top of that they have much more hp and they can act
2 – 4 times per turn.
3. You can use Teleport Scroll to get past them.
4. If you have a Lift Scroll in your inventory, during a fight, Lucy can use it to remove their curse buff. The extra reward is removed as well though
5. Read Purification Scrolls to annihilate them on the spot. The scroll itself is pretty rare though.
Basics
1. Click on the “+” of the map to enlarge it. Then click on the land markers to teleport to them.
2. Hidden treasures start appearing from area 2 to area 5. You can use Lifting Scroll, Purification Scroll or Teleport scroll to reveal them. Use Map Scrolls to mark their locations on your map. However, you can also try to guess it out yourself. Most of the time they appear right next to the enemy groups. Look for a block that is surrounded by 6-7 empty spaces. If you have an Artifact Secret Wreath on you, look for area where white flowers bloom. (For area 5 look for a spalking yellow spot instead.)
3. You can hold shift to walk faster.
4. You can identify items by using them or reading identify scroll. None of the scrolls and potions have negative effects. Equipment may have traits or curses on them.
5. Joey gives you one free potion every time he level. Auto identify upon obtained.
6. To revive someone right click on Lucy’s necklace in the item inventory then click that person.
Recharge at the campfire if needed. However, you can’t do it on Expert Difficulty.
7. Midas Scroll can turn any item into gold. To get the most use out of, cast it on gear or relic.
Casting it one stack of potions or scrolls do not give you extra gold.
Increasing health gain once reviving a unit.
Gives +1 card draw at the start of a battle.
Increasing the charge to 2.
1. You can add more party members with “Request Rescue” before area2 and area4.
2. You can share food among your party with “Use a camp item”. This allows you to heal everyone and give them all buff. (Try sharing Herbs, Sweet Potato and Golden Apple.)
3. You can put relics in the glass display shelf to activate their effects.
4. You can 1-time save with the book.
5. You can recharge Lucy’s necklace and relearn a skill at the lamp post.
Battle Basic
1. Once your characters learn more than 5 skills, the game automatically deletes your basic skills. However, you can turn this function off in option.
2. Once you characters learn more than 5 skills, you can delete book skills and basic skills. You can also pass over those skills to other characters.
3. Some book skills can’t be fixed.
4. Fix skills have 2 turns cooldown.
Start Draw (number) and Battle Draw (number) are different.
Default draw for both types are 3.
Buying Lucy necklace upgrade increases the starting draw by 1.
Adding 1 party member increase the starting draw by 1.
Some attack or healing cards can create even more cards once used.
1. On the middle top of the screen you can see a cloud icon with numbers. It indicates how many turns you have until the dark fog cover up the whole battle field. Once the fog set in, you can only heal the green parts of your hp bars but you can’t heal the missing gray part of them. You also take extra damage each turn.
2. Hold your mouse over the enemies to check out their status ailment resistance.
3. Once the number at the left side of enemy’s hp bar reach 0, that enemy gets to act. Your party speed can affect this number. You can increase your speed with scroll or equipment. Try to avoid using equipment with minus speed if you can. Cards with swiftness do not reduce the number.
4. You can either switching 1 card or discarding 1 card one time per turn. Discarding a card can also cure off stun.
5. Enemies with Taunt must be defeated first before you can target other enemies. However, there are attack skill cards and equipment that can ignore Taunt.
6. It is possible to dodge bosses’ special debuffs.
7. You can use some negative potions on enemies in battle.
8. Overload system. The cost of each character’s skill card goes up everytime you use them.
1. The Witch VS Pheonix
2. Ruby & Sapphire VS Trisha
3. Sacred Karaela VS Pheonix and/or Pressel
Location Explain
You can buy items here. One Key costs 600 gold, one Skill Book costs 300 gold and one Scroll costs 160 gold. If you have leftover gold consider buying item scroll because you may end up with even more gold. It can also give out key equipment and level up orb.
You can also identify item at the shop. The initial cost is 250 gold. The cost goes up by 100 gold each time.
Use keys to unlock the chests
It lets you changed your latest learn skill. I highly recommend changing Lucy’s skill because her
default skill is pretty bad.
You can exchange unwanted items for random items or free heal. However, sometimes it doesn’t give anything back. (Feeding it a Golden Apple gives out a random relic.)
1) Equipment comes in 5 rarity rankings. White -> Green -> Blue -> Purple -> Orange.
2) Relics are always Purple.
3) Instead of explaining how it works I will just write down my test results.
P.Relic + W.Equipment = W.Equipment or P.Relic
P.Relic + P.Relic = P.Relic
B.Equipment + B.Equipment = B.Equipment or P.Equipment (low chance)
W.Equipment + B.Equipment = Gr.Equipment
Gr.Equipment + B.Equipment = B.Equipment
Golden Apple + B.Equipment = P.Equipment and O.Equipment
4) You can pay gold to swap item of the same rarity. (I don’t recommend this.)
You can exchange food for random items. If you are lucky you can do this multiple times.
1) Use it to enchant your equipment. Adding positive and/or negative stats on your equipment
The cost is free for the first time. After that you have to pay 400 gold each time.
2) Enchanting a skill book gives out 3 random Scrolls.
3) Enchanting a Golden Apple gives out 2 – 3 skill books including Lucy’s skill book.
