? Make Superior Items with Skillful Synthesis
The panel-like synthesis system of
Atelier Lydie & Suelle sees players inserting ingredients into boxes on a panel. By putting in items that add new effects to the synthesis, such as catalyst and activation items, you can synthesize even more useful items.
Make Skillful Use of Catalyst Bonuses
During synthesis, by putting in items known as catalysts, you can change the amount of panels or manifest catalyst bonus marks that possess special effects onto the panel. Catalyst bonus mark effects only occur when placing ingredients in the proper box, and the placement and effect of the catalyst bonus mark varies depending on the catalyst. Aim to synthesis even better items by skillfully combining synthesis items and catalysts.
The main types of bonuses consists of an increase / decrease in quality, an increase / decrease in the amount of special characteristics that carry over, an increase / decrease in effect level (the effect bar on the right side of the screen when selecting materials, etc.), an increase / decrease in the amount you can create, etc. It is important to choose the best catalyst based on the items you use for synthesis.
Depending on the items you use for synthesis, the special characteristics possessed by the ingredients may carry over. By combining things such as catalysts that increase the number of special characteristics that carry over, you may be able to create an even better item.
Utilizing the Effects of Activation Items
There are several types of activation items, and each possesses a different effect. Since there are some activation items that effect every box by their simple use, as well as activation items that change the colors of the boxes, how you place ingredients and which activation items you use is important.
Here we will look at syntheses using the same ingredients and same placements, but with different activation items.
Here is a situation where an activation item was not used. The colors of the boxes are scattered, and colors unrelated to the effect level can be seen.
Activation Item Effect: Change
By using an activation item with the Change effect, the colors of the all the colored boxes in which ingredients have already been placed will each change to different colors.
Activation Item Effect: Adjacent Recoloring
When an ingredient has been placed on a colored box, the adjoining boxes of the same color will become the same color. The color change depends on the activation item.
Activation Item Effect: Insertion
When an ingredient has been placed on a colored box, the squares extending horizontally, vertically, and diagonally from that box will change color. The color change depends on the activation item.
Activation Item Effect: Total Recoloring
When an ingredient has been placed on a colored box, all of the boxes of the same color as that box will change color. The color change depends on the activation item.
