Random tips

[Sepith farming spot]. A good way to getting Sepith is available on chapter 2 day 1 and forward. First do the wanted monster quest and get Blue breaker combo craft for Wazy and Noel. Next get the necessary stuff to trade for a sepith vein on the trade shop for both of them, Upgrade the car until you can get CP regen installed (you have to buy HP and EP regen), lower everyone's evasion as much as possible, and remove their weapons, have leave Lloyd and Elie in the party for turn juggling with AT advance and Lloyd burning heart, and block support members attacks if they have any so they don't accidentally kill the targets.

Now what you have to do is take the car to west road's intersection, head east once and start a fight with the black bees preferably without advantage, so they can bunch up on you faster in case there's more than 3. The fight can have up to 5 bees, but it's usually 3, which is not bad still, they drop every single sepith type on death, so what you have to do is wait for them to bunch up on a target, and hopefully they don't kill them with counters, and debuff their speed with time arts to get more turns, wait for a sepith turn to pop up. When you see one coming, try to get either Noel or Wazy to land on the turn, you can try using Lloyd's burning heart to get instant turns and juggle for it or Elie's AT advance to help with that, when it lands use Blue breaker on the enemies to get a bunch of Sepith (Lloyd's tiger charge gives a lot, but that one is single target only, while Blue Breaker is AoE). After killing the two black bees on the field, go back and restore your CP back up and do it as many times as you like. Keep in mind, this can be done against any monster, but this is the earliest and easiest spot. You can also do it to endgame monsters that drop all types of sepith as well.

[Spark Dyne is broken]. For whatever reason they buffed the hell out of Spark dyne in Ao, and it's a great spell to use even late game, since it doesn't rape your EP, and it's fairly fast to cast. You get it by having 9 wind and 3 space. It's AoE is small, so it's not the best thing ever, but for what it is it's great, especially for bosses, so long as they don't have resistance to Wind. Pair it with Jupiter bell (High level monster chest at the old mines), and you'll be unstoppable.

[Police rewards]. Remember to talk to the Police receptionist from time to time after filling out the combat book. Most rewards are simple U-materials, but if you find enough enemies, you'll get something special. Scanning them is not necessary, it's only required for the achievement.

[ATS buffing is good now]. Unlike Zero where you could only cast once before the buff went away, it now lasts 5 tuns total, so make use of it.

[Fish]. One of the best master quartz (good stats, and more damage the lower your HP is) in the game is gotten if you manage to fish the biggest fish in the game, and you can fish for EP Cut 3 right on chapter 2 day 1 and trade for HP 3 with Koppe. Earliest point for the last fish is Chapter 4 day 1.

[Feed Koppe]. Koppe can be fed once per day, unlike Zero's once per chapter, and he still offers a nice selection of quartz depending on what you give to him, and a final reward for feeding him every single day.

[Combo Craft]. Still broken, use them.

[Recipes are pretty useful]. Make sure to get your hands on recipes, some of them have great effects like arts reflect or physical/craft guard, and insta 50% buffs, or all stats healing and so on. Plus there's a master quartz later called Moebius that makes items have an AoE effect when maxed out, which makes it downright broken.

8- Bonding events guide

=============
Playable cast
=============

Bonding points are invisible, and are given to a character whom you did something with, or bought something for, and they are required for the final event with a specific character, which powers up their combination craft (Except for Dudley, who needs a separate event, he'll be in the side character section). Carrying over a save will give you +2 points total for Tio, Randy and Elie, depending on what you did for them in the save file. The things that give bonding points are:

--Carryover with final event done (1 point) = Elie, Tio, Randy
--Carryover with enigma cover bought (1 point) = Elie, Tio, Randy
--New Enigma cover (1 point) = Elie, Tio, Randy, Noel, Wazy
--Decorative Furniture (6 points total, 4 from the gifts, and +2 from the cutscene) = Elie, Tio, Randy, Noel, Wazy
--Doing one combination craft prior to Intermission chapter (2 points) = Elie, Tio, Randy, Noel, Wazy
--Doing three combination crafts prior to the Stargaze tower boss in the final chapter (2 points) = Elie, Tio, Randy, Noel, Wazy, Rixia
--Specific events for a character either from doing quests, or talking to them at specific times in the game:

--Elie (3) = Finish "Shin's tour in the city", and find her recommended food in "Gourmet guide coverage"
--Tio (3) = Finish "Theme park part time job", and find her recommended food in "Gourmet guide coverage"
--Randy (1) = Find his recommended food in "Gourmet guide coverage"
--Noel (5) = Finish "Catching the Runaway vehicle", and "Medical supplies investigation", and find her recommended food in "Gourmet guide coverage"
--Wazy (3) = Finish "Deputy chief's request", and find recommended food in "Gourmet guide coverage"
--Rixia (7) = Talk inside Arc en Ciel (Chapter 1, day 1), Talk in downtown (Chapter 2, day 3), talk on East street (chapter 3, day 3), and finish "Ancient battlefield investigation".

If you did all the above, the characters should have this many points when the final bonding event becomes available (Not counting events where you can select them for extra points).

--Elie = 14/16 | amount needed for final event 20
--Tio = 14/16 | amount needed for final event 20
--Randy = 12/14 | amount needed for final event 18
--Noel = 16 | amount needed for final event 22
--Wazy = 14 | amount needed for final event 18
--Rixia = 9 | amount needed for final event 11

To get the extra points required to see the final events, simply pick them in missions, or events that ask you to select someone for something, each pick should give + 2 points, and the amount of events available is pretty big, so it shouldn't be much trouble to get everyone so long as you properly spread it out, if you want pointers on picks for the events, do this (this is assuming you got all possible points for the characters from other things):

Elie = Select her for at least 2 events (or 3 events if you didn't get carryover points). Available picks total = 11
Tio = Select her for at least 2 events (or 3 events if you didn't get her carryover points). Available picks total = 10
Randy = Select him for at least 2 events (or 3 events if you didn't get his carryover points). Available picks total = 10
Noel = Select her for at least 3 events. Available picks total = 12
Wazy = Select him for at least 2 events. Available picks total = 11
Rixia = Pick her for at least one event, during the intermission. Available picks total = 5

There will be an extra event in the intermission which will make the person with the highest amount of bonding points join you (Only Elie, Tio, Randy, Noel and Wazy available), and at one point, you'll be able to buy an accessory with 10000 mira, that adds +2 points tothem. The stats on them vary depending on who is, but they're pretty weak accessories overall.

===============
Side characters
===============

These characters are important NPCs + Dudley. The reason Dudley is featured here is because unlike everyone else, he does not have a final bonding event, but he should be able to update your combination craft with him so long as you get the required amount of points. The rest of them should give you pretty good accessories in the final chapter if you go talk to them with the required amount, after the final dungeon becomes available. They are:

--Dudley, needs 6 total. Reward = Upgraded combination craft
--Kea, needs 26 total. Reward = Pearl of Zero- STR/DEF/ATS/ADF +50 / Prevents Abnormal status.
--Ilya, needs 7 total. Reward = Dancer's Hairpin- STR+50, ATS+50, SPD+10, ACC +50%
--Cecile, needs 6 total. Reward = Valiant Heart- STR/DEF/ATS/ADF +100
--Fran, needs 6 total. Reward = Fran's Charm- DEF+200, ADF+200, EVA +10%
--Sully, needs 12 total. Reward = Sully's Cap- SPD+15, MOV+5, EVA +20%

For everyone you simply need to watch all of their events as you play the game, or do quests related to them to get the reward, except for Kea, who like other members of the SSS, accepts decorative furniture, which account for the points needed, you need all of her gifts, plus all of her events done. You can also pick them for certain events, but they usually clash with picking one of the playable members, so it's often not a good idea to do so. The following list is the order of events you need to watch, in Chronological order:

--Chapter 1
(Day 1)
Kea: Talk to her on Sunday school (+2)

(Day 2)
Sully: Speak to her on the Crossbell cemetery (+2)
Fran: Talk to her on the police HQ (+2)

--Chapter 2
(Day 1)
Kea: Talk to her before starting "Shin's tour in the city" inside the bracer guild (+2)
Ilya: Talk to her inside of the Arc en Ciel (+2)
Cecile: During "Request from the new doctor" after talking to her in her room (+2)

(Day 2)
Sully: Talk to her in Ilya's apartment (+2)
Dudley: Speak to him after locating the two people he asks you to find inside of the the Police HQ (+2)

(Day 3)
Kea: Speak to her in the libary (+2)
Fran: Speak to her in the police HQ (+2)

--Intermission
Kea and Sully: Give them both white stones (+2 each)

--Chapter 3
(Day 1)
Kea: Talk inside the support section (+2)
Ilya: Talk inside Arc en Ciel (+2)

(Day 2)
Kea: Talk to her in the library (+2)
Dudley: Talk to him inside of the department store times (+2)
Cecile: Talk to her inside of Shizuku's room (+2)

(Day 3)
Ilya and Sully: Complete "Secret acting guidance" (1 Ilya, 6 Sully)
Fran: Talk to her inside of the police HQ after preparing the boat to go to the marsh (+2)

(Day 4)
Kea: After speaking with Cao, talk to Kea inside of the SSS building (+2)

--Chapter 4
(Day 1)
Kea: Talk to her inside of the SSS building (+2)
Dudley: Speak to him inside of the bar in the back alley (+2)

--Final chapter
Cecile: After MacDowell's speech, speak to her in the hospital (+2)
Ilya: Talk to her in the hospital, with Rixia in your party, when the final dungeon appears (+2)

If you did it correctly, you should be able to pick any event you want once they are available, after the boss fight on top of Stargaze tower in the final chapter, and get all of the accessories from the side characters.
