Throughout your journey, you'll find blue notes pinned to walls, often near the Merchant's shop. These are 'Merchant Requests,' optional side quests given by the enigmatic Merchant. Completing these requests rewards you with Spinel, a special currency that can be traded with the Merchant for exclusive items like weapon upgrades, attaché case charms, and treasure maps. Always keep an eye out for these blue notes, as they are a great way to earn valuable rewards.
General Tips for Merchant Requests:
- Read Carefully: Each request has specific objectives, such as 'Eliminate the Brute,' 'Destroy the Blue Medallions,' or 'Find the Golden Egg.'
- Check Your Map: Once accepted, the request objective will often be marked on your map, making it easier to locate.
- Prioritize: Some requests are time-sensitive or located in areas you won't revisit easily. Try to complete them as you encounter them.
- Rewards: Spinel is crucial for unlocking powerful upgrades and unique items. Don't neglect these requests!
