Tips
  • To make summoning easier, purchase Turn Elements (e.g., Turn Red) from the Element Shop in Marbule (Another World).
  • Equip Turn Elements of the same color as your Summon to all three party members.
  • Build up Elemental Power for each party member. Equipping Dream Bandanas can help you start at Level 1 Elemental Power.
  • The summoner should aim for Level 7 or 8 Elemental Power.
  • Cast the Turn X Element for each party member to make the Field Effect one solid color.
  • Wait to recover stamina, then build up the remaining Element Power to unleash your Summon.
  • Later in the game, X Field Elements (e.g., Yellow Field) can change the Field Effect instantly, but they are not available for Black and White Summons.
  • For easier farming, consider downgrading your gear to Bone or Copper if you are defeating enemies too quickly.
  • The Mannequeen enemy, found in the Tower of Geddon, is a good target. You can also find them in the Bend of Time (west of Dead Sea Ruins in Home World) via a portal on the top row, second from the left.
  • Mannequeen are weak, do not use Elements themselves, and often spawn in groups of four, yielding up to four shiny materials per fight.
  • Be aware of the Mannequeen's counter-attack if it poses slightly forward before you attack.
