Learn how to effectively allocate attributes using Dream Aether in Dreams of Aether. Discover the basics of Encoding, different grades, and attribute limits to optimize your character's power.
Walkthrough
- 1Understand Dream Aether: It's a primordial energy that can be encoded to enhance attributes.
- 2Basic Attributes: The seven basic attributes accessible via Encode are Strength, Agility, Constitution, Vitality, Intelligence, and Perception.
- 3Encoding Costs: The cost to Encode varies based on the volume of the target. Volumes above 3 cubic meters double the price, and above 6 cubic meters triple it. For example, 1 Aether point is needed to enchant a 3 cubic meter unit of volume with the Sharpness Encoding, and this applies to stats as well. Larger entities require more Aether, but those just over a certain size are less efficient due to increased costs for minor gains.
- 4Aether Capacity: Every body has a limit to how much Aether it can contain. This is often referred to as the Aether's 100-point limit for humans.
- 5Encoding Grades: There are different grades of Encoding. Grade 1 Aether is like a gas, Grade 2 like a liquid, and Grade 3 like a solid. Each additional grade allows the body to hold 10 times more Aether. Higher grades also allow for more complex Encodings, potentially infusing Aether Stats with passive properties similar to Aether Skills.
- 6Acquiring Encodings: The Oracle offers the 7 Grade 1 primary Encodings for free. All other Encodings must be purchased, often at a significant cost (e.g., Grade 2 Strength Encoding costs 1,000 credits at the Oracle Store).
- 7Attribute Limits by Grade:
- 8Grade 1: Max Attribute 100
- 9Grade 2: Max Attribute 1,000
- 10Grade 3: Max Attribute 10,000?
- 11Aether Colors: For simplicity, colors are assigned to different energies: Red for Strength, orange for Agility, yellow for Constitution, green for Vitality, cyan for Intelligence, and indigo for Perception. The Oracle device uses more Aether to encode each different energy based on its color.
Tips
- Be mindful of volume when Encoding, as larger volumes significantly increase costs.
- Consider the trade-offs between higher grades and their associated costs.
- Utilize the free Grade 1 Encodings to get started.
