Learn how to use Aging Altars in FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time to unlock powerful third skills for your weapons, tools, and shields. Discover skill tiers and strategies.
Aging Altars are special rooms found in Treasure Groves, identifiable by a greenish statue icon. When you plant a weapon, life tool, or shield in an Aging Altar, you have the chance to learn a third skill for that item. Higher tiers of Treasure Groves yield better skills. The potential skills are divided into three sets based on the 'age' you are aiming for:
- Present to Year 300 (0-400)
- Year 400 to Year 600 (410-700)
- Year 700 to Year 900 (710-1000)
After planting an item, you can use materials to increase the 'rank' of the skill, with up to 1,000 points guaranteeing a skill from the highest tier. Press L2/LT/ZL to view a list of potential skills for your gear. To complete the process, you must defeat the boss at the end of the Treasure Grove. Upon returning to your base camp, the item will be available to retrieve from the statue near the grove entrance, now equipped with its new, randomly acquired third skill. The skill obtained is random within the chosen tier, and obtaining desired skills becomes more challenging with higher age tiers.
