what are the best things to gather/ loot and things u should buy and not? i see a few crafting reciptys but there listed as limited, but they say there learned. (i dono what this means if i already no them or not or if there even wroth learning... and then theres a jacket (armor for 50. only thing holding me off is i think i could make armor or find armor. have now played a Atelier game in years so i can remember.) any way this all just opened so i dont know whats best to do..

what if anything is there good to make/ craft or to get to make some money in game?

Recipe books you buy once and read when you go back to your atelier. From then you can craft any recipes from that book at any time. You definitely want these.

You could buy gear but you really don't need to. Crafted gear is enough. Maybe the store gear is better than what you could easily craft at the time, but whether you farm for materials for better gear or farm money to buy it you're still farming.

Since I never bought anything but recipe books I was never really short on money. So the only good method I know is philosopher stones at end game.

Sincerly saying, the only things I brought at store was recipes and things that I saw that I would need to do some synthetize and couldn't find. So.. money isn't that valuable, I guess... More important than that is the "Gem" points that you use at duplicator.

Duplicator is one of the most important features to increase your weapons and itens quality/usage, because you'll be able to redo itens that you had made once and improve it. If you keep a good base (Supplements, Alchemy Fibers, Honey, ETC.), you can duplicate it a lot of times in order to maintain your quality.

Ir other words, use your best itens to make the best base itens possible, and keep duplicating it to not lose that. In some part of the game, you'll find the loops to cap any item.

Also, check for "Spread Effect" when you are synthetizing, that is the most OP factor to easily make any item with low Duplication gem cost. The most Spread Effect the item have the most far it will spread in your synthesis.

For example: Spirinite is a synthetized gemstone that can have Spread Effect = 1, that gemstone have Thunder and possibly Ice elements, so, when you use it, any yellow or blue slot at +1 from where you have used will be fulled.

A lot of itens have increased Spread Effect on its synthesis. Good luck.

Ah, the duplicator cost REALLY increases when you Rebuild it, if possible, make it in a single run, going from the scratch. Doing that you'll increase the maximum amount of itens possible to be appliable on this Synthesis.

ABOUT TRAITS:

Expensive = more money, if you want money, farm Expensive (+, ++) , Finest (25%) or Rarest (50%). Not quite useful though...
