Use it on farming tools for an easier time. Fish – Add to fishing rods to increase the odds of catching that fish (I think). Invisible Stone – Invisible weapons. Pure fun value. Mine from the upper part of Spring Field. Raccoon Leaf – Extends range. Stacks with below. The boss of Demon’s Den drops it. Left, left, left. Glitta Augite – Extends range. Stacks with above. Randomly drops instead of Lumber when chopping Twinkle Tree. Grow one using a Shining Seed obtained from the tree to the NW of Obsidian Mansion. Object X – Reverses effects of future upgrades. Useful for turning negative resists into positives, such as with cooking spices. Mealy Apple – Large stat boosts when used after Object X. Orichalcum – Highest rarity ore that’s easily obtainable. Mined in Leon Karnak. Dragonic Stone – Highest rarity ore. Period. Mined in Rune Prana. Shade Stone – Lowers resists of enemies when you hit them. Rare Can – Increases chances of rare items dropping. Weapons only. 4-Leaf Clover – Increases item drop rate. Weapons only. Green/Blue/Red/Yellow Cores – Upgrade with all of them to give 10% resistance to non-elemental damage. Elemental Dragon Scales – Allows shields to half their effects when using dual-wield weapons (fists/dual swords). Elemental Crystals (seasonal crystal flowers) – Adds elemental resistance. Golden Crops – Instant death chance on every hit. Resist death on crafted items. Light Ore – Allows you to override using an item from a different category (ex. Long Sword item in Shortsword recipe + Light Ore). Mined anywhere once your mining level is above 40-ish.

PS: never use Mealy Apple when crafting EVER! it makes it so that the crafted object will get Mealy Apple's stats <_< upgrading with it is totally fine though when used the item in question was mixed with object X which may mean anything that failed in terms of crafting at that point will give you some... OP gear?

can someone tell me where I can find gold ore ?

Staves get M.ATK bonuses with rarity points instead of ATK. (Getting +1750 M.ATK at >=200 Total Rarity Points) So if you play as a mage you don't lose anything since you're already supposed to use staves because of their charge attacks.

Also, not all crafting items have DEF bonuses with rarity points. I can't pinpoint a rule but it seems like magical-like items get M.DEF bonuses instead. Examples of this are the Magic Shield and the Diamond Brooch.

I have understand the the item effects before this.. but the rarity system still confused me..
do you more tutorial about this? or maybe a video to actually show how it goes?

Thanks before ^^~!!

hey just found an exploit for fishing you can throw anything in the lake and keep fishing it back to boost your fishing level, really fast, im using the star pendant and water shoes so i can just press a then b b then a. not sure if fishing level actually helps though

I have been using the tls method for all of my items but for some reason when i recently made shoes and overrode those shoes on weaker ones leveling up everything to level 10 every chance I could...the stats were barely better than the weak shoes i wanted to override. I did everything the same as I always have but this time it didn't multiply the stats; usually I walk away with +300 on top of the the good item stats. like for example the good item is 500 atk then after overriding a weak version of that i got 900 atk. I've looked online everywhere and no one seems to have this problem I'm experiencing. Keep up these vids you are a great help and a great host, thank you.

Let's see here you put in the description 4-leaf clover as a drop rate increasing item. What about the Giant 4-leaf clover does it have a greater effect? Have these items (4-leaf clover and rare can) proven to do what they are supposed to do? I'm only asking because I pretty much did everything in the game and would like to create a perfect ultimate weapon and armor set minus the items that require white stone (pretty sure it's impossible to get one higher than lvl1 as far as I know)
Also another thing I would honestly like to know if you have the time and patience to do a video on it is what each of the skill does, how you level it up and what other skills do crafting, cooking, forging, and mixing medicine give experience to besides themselves. I'm pretty sure what I'm asking is tedious as all hell but hey at least I asked.

Would it be possible to make a quick beginners guide please!! I feel like I am missing a lot in this game!

Would you do a video explaining how to be a strong mage? I'm considering to go to mage at some point, but none of my wands come close to my spears and longswords.

I know its been a few months sense this was posted but if someone could tell me if a combo like (object x - mealy apple - ten fold steel) would work it would be very appreciated.

I would like to request a video where you explain each villager and their story

thank you so much v wish i had found these tutorials when i first started the game...

how can you reach lvl 150 tier?. if there are only 6 slots for each level 10 item you put? plus the level on the items it self making it reach level 70 max... how the hell can you reach tier 5 lvl 150?

I like to hear about the Magic side i know about the melee now but the Magic i am not so sure about. also about have to get higher magic attack on weapons. And Really good Job on the Video Mate ^^ i got so much info out of it.
