Episode 1 - The Dreamer Boy's Adventure Walkthrough

After starting the game and viewing the opening cutscene, you will select the story difficulty. This setting can be changed at any time, so players who want to focus on combat are recommended to choose "Path of Dusk," while those less comfortable with action games should select "Path of Dawn."

Start the game and progress through the tutorial. Control "Cloud" and "Verna" to learn the basics of combat and the Capturing system.

At the end of the tutorial, you will perform a First-Time Recruitment pull that guarantees a 4★ Character. Afterward, the Recruit (gacha) feature will be unlocked.

How to Reroll Guide

Head back the way you came toward the main gate of Hananis. You can receive XP items from "Manon" near the gate.

Within the same rarity, prioritize leveling Fighters who are well-suited for story progression and Path content. Among the starting characters, "Verna" is a Fighter.

Follow the Main Quest guidance to progress through Ventus Forest. You will also learn map mechanics, such as wires.

After progressing a short distance, a minigame called "Chasing" will begin. During the Chase, your character moves forward automatically, and you can switch lanes by moving left or right.

After clearing the "Chasing" challenge, you will enter a battle against the Corrupted Cappy Mama. You should be able to clear it without issues using basic combat knowledge.

After defeating Corrupted Cappy Mama, use the Adventure Map to go to the Monster Tamers Gathering Hub by selecting the Quest Objective and pressing "Go".

After completing your objective in the Gathering Hub and meeting "Ophelia", the Link Chains feature will be unlocked.

Follow the Quest Objectives by speaking with Ophelia outside the Gathering Hub, then proceed deeper into the forest to investigate.

As you progress through the Main Quest, you will face the Corrupted King Slime. For a smooth battle, it is recommended to raise your team to level 10, focusing on your main attacker.

After defeating the Corrupted King Slime and collecting the rewards, the Events feature will be unlocked.

Proceed through Burning Breezeville. You can continue by using a Slimelet to extinguish obstacles.

When you complete the quests in Breezeville, the Side Quest "The Path to New Experiences" will become available, unlocking the "Path" feature. At this point, you will be able to use Keys (Stamina), so be sure to use them to avoid overflow.

In XP Path, it is recommended to prioritize "Experience Training," especially in the early game, to obtain character EXP items.

How to Get and Recover Keys

Once your characters are fully enhanced, follow the Main Quest objective and advance through the Goblin Camp.

Follow the Forest Goblin to begin the "Infiltration" minigame. Avoid the guard Goblins' line of sight as you proceed, and extinguish the torches.

After defeating Taglock, Adventurer Quests are automatically unlocked, allowing you to collect rewards based on your daily contributions.

Gold Path

Requests

After defeating Taglock, you must complete two Side Quests to progress, which unlock the Gold Path and Requests features. Gold Path is unlocked by completing "Path to Riches," while Requests are unlocked by completing "Friendly Neighborhood Monster Tamers!" It is recommended to complete Requests daily, while farming Gold Path is a lower priority at this stage.

Follow the Main Quest objective and advance through the Luporum Trail and Wolves' Den.

The "Corrupted Frostjaw" that appears in the Luporum Trail and Wolves' Den grants a powerful barrier to nearby enemies, so prioritize defeating them first.

This is the boss battle against Lupe in Wolves' Den. The enemy is fast and deals high damage, so it is recommended to reach the level cap of 20 before attempting the fight.

When Lupe begins preparing a powerful attack in the latter half of the fight, a White Mist with a Counter Gauge will appear. Avoid attacking Lupe during this time, as it will have no effect.

This is the second "Chasing" minigame. Since there are no major changes from the first, you can clear it easily by prioritizing boosts and selecting your lanes accordingly.

After handing over the suspicious man to the Monster Tamers, Side Quests to unlock "Crafting" and "Cooking" will become available. Since Crafting is a crucial feature for future progression, be sure to review how it works.

This is the battle against Forkmugger encountered on the way to the Monastery. While not particularly difficult, it is recommended to craft and enhance your equipment at this point to ensure a smooth clear.

Proceed through the destroyed Monastery. If Main Quest tracking is enabled, you should have no trouble navigating the area.

"Part Destruction" is a mechanic that first appears in the battle against Custos. By depleting the shield-shaped gauge, you can greatly fill Custos' Stagger Gauge.

The starting character, Cloud, has a kit that allows him to deal damage to Custos safely. If you are struggling with the Custos fight, leveling up Cloud is a viable option.
