Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Unlocking Treasure Groves: Progress the main story until after completing Chapter 4. Obtain a Sapling by purchasing it from The Don (wandering merchant in Ginormosia) or by defeating Mimics on the Ginormosia map.
  2. 2
    Planting a Sapling: Go to your base camp in the Present time and find the clearing east of the stairs to the Goddess Statue. Plant the Sapling to grow a Treasure Grove.
  3. 3
    Multiplayer and Saving Branches: Treasure Groves can be explored solo or in multiplayer. If you join someone else's Grove and like it, you can save it as a Branch to play later.
  4. 4
    Progression: Treasure Groves are randomly laid out as interconnected nodes with a boss at the bottom. Complete the objective on each node/floor to progress to the next. You cannot redo completed floors, but you can backtrack to uncompleted ones before defeating the boss.
  5. 5
    Time Limit and Exiting: Each Treasure Grove has a one-hour time limit. If you fail to complete it in time, you'll be kicked out, but the timer resets upon re-entry. You can also leave at any time, and progress is saved.
  6. 6
    Completing a Treasure Grove: Defeat the boss at the end of the dungeon. Once completed, you cannot re-enter the same dungeon.
  7. 7
    Replanting and Difficulty: After completing a Grove, you can replant a new one. You can choose to start from '100 Years' or '0 Years', which affects the difficulty. Treasure Groves go up to 900 Years, with the maximum completion being 1,000 Years.
  8. 8
    Rewards: Completing Treasure Groves rewards Goddess Fruits. The number received depends on the dungeon's 'Year' (1-3 for solo). In multiplayer, you get an additional number of Goddess Fruits equal to the number of players (up to 6).
  9. 9
    Goddess Fruits: Trade Goddess Fruits at Marco’s Shop in your base camp guild for items and recipes, including character customization options.
Tips
  • Mimics that drop Saplings are found on the overworld of Ginormosia and tend to run away. Be cautious as they can self-destruct.
  • The layout of each dungeon is randomly generated.
  • Normal floors include monster floors and gathering types (Mining, Woodcutting, Fishing, Farming). The dungeon type often influences the majority of nodes present.
  • Objectives on normal floors usually involve clearing all nodes of a specific type or completing a specific task, like gathering an Eternian Fruit from a tree or ore.
  • Rare floors include Aging Altars, Strangelings, Treasure Troves, and Monster Houses.
  • The Aging Altar allows you to place a piece of equipment to gain an extra skill upon dungeon completion. Adding materials can increase the rarity of the skill.
  • Goddess Fruits (quantity varies by dungeon Year and number of players).
  • Items and recipes from Marco's Shop, including character customization options.
