Field Magic
Learn Magic[edit]
In Main Story Chapter 106, you will be introduced to Magic. There are several places where Magic will come in handy in the Rok World. This magic is different from that used in the time layer Aldo and friends are from.
It can move giant objects easily, show the truth of things, and even alter forms... Magic can be learned by anyone who absorbs magic from this world and reads a magic tome, and then you can use it in the field.
Leveling Your Crystal Rod[edit]
Absorb magic from the Lightspark Tree in each region to enhance your Crystal Rod. Your Crystal Rod level only affects which spells you can access, but not the strength of the spells you already know. Stronger spells can only be accessed by gathering Magic Tomes.
There are total of 10 Lightspark Trees spread across Refleque:
- Parmonia Meadows - no magic required
- Folkian Wildlands (North) - no magic required
- Kirdis Forest - require Beginner magic Clearsight
- Folkian Wildlands (South) - no new magic required
- [need someone to confirm this] Laranssa Seabed - require Beginner magic Clearsight
- The Whitherfields - no new magic required
- Ritnem - require Beginner magic Clearsight
- Hamoul Woodland - require Intermediate magic Farsight
- Northern Krete - need Intermediate magic Magikinesis to move the block in Eternook.
- Petalfall Village - require Advance magic Allsight (cast in Ritnem to reveal a connecting bridge)
- For Trees #4-5, you need to reach Chapter 110 and gain the ability to free-explore the undersea over-map. >Click to access spoiler< You are re-united with Sleeping Pearl, the sentient ship from Into Hollow 1 that awaited you for 800 years.
- For Trees #6-10, you need to clear Chapter 112 and gain the ability to free-explore Effusia (floating islands over-map). >Click to access spoiler< Guilty Hades gains full-flight ability; the event also comes with another nice bonus video for the Xenogears/mecha fans.
Magic Points[edit]
When you get close to a point where Magic can be used (depicted by a staff icon on the minimap), the object that can be affected will start to glow - purple for moveable objects, yellow for illusions, and blue for locked doors and chests. Tap the appropriate button on the bottom of the screen to cast the spell to interact with the overworld.
