NPC Locator [Adults in their final locations]

Location for every ADULT NPC that can be either Allured, Challenged or Hired, along with what dance session tune, learned ability or mercantile perk they have access to. As no child NPC can perform any of these actions, none of the NPC children in game will be listed. Only one child can be coerced into fighting under special circumstances.

This guide splits the NPC's by region, as there are NPC's that lurk outside of the main towns. Some NPC's can move from one section of a town to another when the day changes to night, such as Winterbloom main town to the thieves quarter. More commonly a move is between outside and a nearby building. Not every named NPC is available both Day & Night.

SPOILER WARNING: This guide uses the FINAL locations for each & every NPC in the game. When this list was generated, the only outstanding side quest was the secret boss; all 8 solo stories, all 4 paired stories and the main story boss had been defeated. The romance side quests had been resolved by stealing the necklace in Stormhail and leading Margello from Montwise to Timberain. Different choices will see these NPC move elsewhere.

Note: there are other guide on this forum that lists ALL the resources for the game as a massive spreadsheet, should you want more details about a given NPC, such as potential loot from challenges and their acquirable inventory. The only thing the guides don't list is the age & gender of each NPC to help you identify which NPC is which when they have generic names like sanctum knight or townsperson.

Partitio's Perks

Partitio's perks fall into 6 general categories:
(C) = more money when using the Collect skill,
(H) = reduced costs when using the Hired Help skill,
(I) = Stay for free at the Inn,
(N) = reduced cost when using Negotiate skill
(P) = money off Purchases including chance options
(S) = more money when Selling items.

How to be a better merchant:
Collect will generally net you under 1,500 leaves per monster unless you are facing Revenant's and bosses who can have 4,000 leaves or more. Some of the better collect bonuses will generate +20% per collection. In real terms this means generating an extra 300 leaves or less from most basic foe.

The dearest Hired Help is 50,000 per summon. They are the foreign assassins, who you must actively recruit via an encounter outside Merryhills at night in order to add to your roster. The two perks are: either a flat 20% off (Chivalry) or a random 10-30% off (Friends in high places). The two highest grade summons are useful for late game/ final story boss.

Staying for free at the Inn is a poor bonus, due to how inn prices are calculated. Inn Fee = total party level x modifier (either 2 or 1).

E.g. if your active party consists of 4 members with the following levels: L42, L40, L39, L41 then the total is 162. By default you'll pay twice the total party level giving a price of 324 leaves. If you have unlocked discounted stay at a town's inn by inquiring/scrutinising/bribing/coercing an NPC then the modifier is reduced to 1, e.g. 162 leaves. The most you can possibly save is 792 leaves for staying the night.

Negotiate is acquired from the merchant shrine. Negotiations start at 1,000 leaves for basic monsters and can raise to 50,000 for late game bosses. It's cost doubles in price every time you use it in a fight. Boosting the skill reduces the cost by 10/25/50% depending on how many BP you spend. Skilled Scheduler gives you 20% off, so effectively makes it equivalent to almost a permanent 2 BP boost. Almost every boss can be negotiated with. If you have enough leaves you can prevent the boss from acting for an entire round of combat to give you time to reset your party.

The money off Purchases skills are an incorrect translation. It should instead be thought of as a cash back system. e.g. an item costs 10,000 leaves and you have 30% off purchases. You need to have 10,000 leaves to make the purchase and will then be reimbursed 3,000 leaves. You can't make the purchase if you have 7,000 leaves to your name, even though this is all you will effectively spend.

The strongest re-reimbursements are: A Way With Words (30%); Silver Tongue (20%); Coy Wink (8% chance for 50% rebate); Lucky Break (1% chance to get the item for free). A way with words is the most reliable way to save money without having to constantly reload your save file if you're trying to get a deal on big ticket items. The sole provider of this perk is located near the Merchant's Guild at night.

You Sell for 20% of the purchase price by default. So +40% to your sell value = 28% of what you'd normally pay. i.e. the shop sells an item for 1,000 leaves but will only buy the same item from your party for 200 leaves; +40% becomes sell for 280 leaves. Endgame weapons will generally sell for 10-15,000 leaves by default.

Never buy non-usable items like hairbrushes, thick tomes or artwork from NPC's as you'll never turn a profit; always steal, mug or entreat.

Overall the 3 best benefit types for saving money are: Hired help, Negotiate and cashback from Purchases. The latter can cover their cost of hiring when buying 50,000 leaves worth of equipment (a mid-game spending spree).

The frequency by perk type from least common to most common is : N<C, I<H<S<<P

Hire for Cheap
The following towns have a Hire for Cheap bonus if you scrutinise the right NPC:
Oresrush & Gravell (Wildlands)
New Delsta & Clockbank (Brightlands),
Montwise (Crestlands),
Roque Island (Harbourlands),
Wellgrove (Leaflands) .
Anyone who resides in these towns or is in the territories adjacent to them will cost 20% less than default to hire.

Agnea's backing track

Whenever Agnea uses any of the dance-type abilities, she will trigger a musical accompaniment from anyone she has allured. These will usually give her a boost unless the skill targets a different party member, in which case they will receive the boost.

There are 6 abilities that are considered to be a dance:
Lion Dance
Peacock Strut
Dagger Dance
Bewildering Grace
Dancer's Blade: Mischievous Step (Armsmaster skill)
Dance of Immunity (Conjurer skill)

Alluring

The following towns have an Undeniable Allure bonus:
Cropdale (Leaflands)
Merry Hills (Crestlands)
New Delsta (Brightlands),
Tropu'hopu (Toto'haha),
Ku (KInouema)
This raises your chance of alluring all townsfolk there. IF the mechanics haven't changed when compared to the first game then Level 91+ gives the highest chance to allure someone, with 2.8x the base chance.

It is important to realise not every NPC is receptive to being allured even at the end of the game. e.g. Level 75 Agnea versus the 24 year old Villager outside the tavern in Cape Cold only has a 26% chance to Allure him. Whereas Cohazeh the human mayor in the Beasting Village region has a 50% chance to be allured.

Hikari's Learned Skills

There are 188 skills that can be learned in game. These skills can be learned from 1-23 NPC's. Some skills are NPC only, so can only be accessed through hiring. The 11 most common skills you can learn are: Cleave in Two (15), Stab (10), Twofold Thrust (23), Double Stab (11), Split Open (15), Upheaval (10), Squall of Arrows (10), Brain Bash (14), First Aid (10), Pray (10), Heckle (10).

Some skills with multiple teachers are located primarily in one region (e.g. High Voltage in Merry Hills, Break in Lost Seed) and other times they are common to a job type (e.g. cleric or sanctum knight). Not every skill is beneficial, as there are around 15 with negative effects to Hikari and/or your party. Some skills also have a prohibitively high SP cost (50+), which can render them hard to justify learning with Hikari's default SP meter.

There are 8 skills that Hikari has limited access to:
Hachimonjigiri his starting learned skill. This is an enhanced version of Slice (Sword).
Throwing Knife. Chapter 1 exclusive - Tsuki. This is an enhanced version of Slash (Dagger)
Disciplinary Strike. Chapter 1 exclusive - Horse Lender. Alternative to Striking Sermon (Staff) - debuffs physical attack instead of putting the enemy to Sleep.
Bottle Toss. Chapter 1 exclusive - Tavern Patron. Budget version of Befuddling Arrow/Slash, deals less damage. Not aligned to any physical damage type.
Spearhead. Chapter 1 exclusive - Citizen. Alternative to Slowing Sweep (Polearm). Hikari gets to go first next round.
Thrash. Chapter 2 exclusive - solo Gladiator fight. Budget version of Upheaval (Axe), deals less damage.
Divine Dual-edge chapter 3 exclusive - boss fight. This is the only strike all foe TWICE with a sword ability and is the cheapest strike all foe with a sword skill.
Benevolence. Heals the enemy . Available until endgame bonfire segment from Mindt in Flamechurch. You'll learn why she would have this skill via the story.
Every other skill can be re-learned should you find you need that ability for a boss fight; this guide is to help find where you need to go for that skill.

Usually a combat skill will state which Weapon or Element it is aligned to when you consider challenging an NPC; the description also usually gives a clue as to any potential status effect e.g. noxious = poison; soporific = sleep; befuddling = confusion.

However there are skills that have the ability to target 2 or 3 different weaknesses. Unlike Ochette's captured monsters they don't cycle through the weaknesses they target. It is these abilities that are generally listed in the notes section, along with skills held by high (8+) challenge rating NPC's, as they tend to have access to a strong ability.

(side-note: I'm not sure if there is a mod that allows the abilities description including SP cost to be displayed prior to challenging an NPC).

To the victor go the spoils

Every character you fight in a challenge has a chance to drop an item. The chance ranges from 2% to 70%, with desirable items tending to be low drop chances. Most characters will drop something minor like materials for Castti, or basic consumables such as healing grapes. However, there are a small number of characters who are well worth farming for the item they can drop. Noted below are mainly alternative sources for battle tested gear, plus blessed vestments (strong mage armour) and a few rare consumables and cash generators if needed.

Ku Castle Town	Official (44F)	Azuki Porridge - multi-turn healing	40

Hireling Only Skills

The purposes of the list's in this segment are:
1) show the different skills that exist in game but are unavailable to Hikari, should you be curious.
2) allow you to decide whether or not you wish to track down the relevant NPC and include them as a hireling.

It is broken down into 3 segments:
a) aligned damage dealing skill;
b) buffs, debuffs and ailments
c) other - healing, unaligned damage and skills that I haven't yet used. Note: This section is currently vague.

This section has been generated using the resources provided by one of the other guides [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ujgl9WjfhevFsHI_IoRyUeRygv8fX3PXRT9-v1EO42c/edit#gid=758208927].

	Alrond	Improvisation	N/A	Financial Support (P)	He costs 200,000/160,000 to hire, even thought he's a 1* rated hireling. Alternatively he requires a Level 80 Temenos to be guided or 3 Octopath Bowls to be bribed by Ochette. L75 Agnea has a 2% chance to allure him. Throne needs to L78+ to have a 55%+ chance at picking his pocket. The reason for hiring him is his special ability - twice per battle he grants 2x,10x or 100x to JP or XP at random, making him great for speed levelling. If he generates two JP or two XP buffs, the stronger one is applied, the other is discarded. He can be used 3 times before needing re-hired. The lost isle double blood revenant encounter and the optional bosses: dread fang, tyrannodrake, deep one, battle-worn shark, & scourge of the sea are the highest XP fights.
