07. TINKERING AND SCRAP
Learn about Resonance of Fate Tinkering and Scrap. Find the Tinkerer in Ebel City, Cranktown, and Albona to craft custom parts.
The Tinkerer can be found in Ebel City, Cranktown, and Albona. This NPC (non-player character) will create custom parts for your guns, as well as grenades, special ammunition, and accessories. These items are made from scrap components. You can obtain scrap components from enemy drops, or by taking various items to the Scrapper, who will disassemble them for a small charge. Essentially, you find items, scrap them, and recycle the parts.
Some items are exclusively for use by the Tinkerer. The Scrapper's list will indicate which items you should keep and which you can scrap. There are also a few items that have no other purpose and can be sold directly at a shop.
- Pay attention to the Scrapper's list to identify items that can be scrapped for components versus those that should be kept or sold.
- Scrap components are essential for crafting powerful custom parts.
08. CUSTOMISATION
Learn how to customise your guns in Resonance of Fate! Discover how to find and fit custom parts to maximise your weapon's effectiveness and conquer your enemies.
Alright, let's talk about gun customisation in Resonance of Fate. This is where you really start to make your weapons your own and seriously boost their power. You absolutely *need* to do this to get the most out of your guns.
To customise, you'll need to grab custom parts. These parts are specific to each gun type, so a Handgun part will only fit a Handgun, and you'll notice a little 'o' symbol at the firing end of a Handgun's barrel. You'll need to find a Handgun barrel part that also has a matching 'o' on its right side. Think of it like a jigsaw puzzle – all the connecting bits have to line up perfectly. When you get it right, you'll hear a satisfying 'click' as the part slots into place.
If you try to put a part on incorrectly, the game will let you know and remove it. This can actually be a handy shortcut if you want to strip down a gun quickly – just remove one part near the original gun, and everything attached to it will come off too.
When you're customising, your gun will be shown on a grid. You can actually move the gun around on this grid using the right stick while you're trying to fit a new part. The main goal here is to use up as much of the grid as possible by filling it with these connecting parts. Now, the gun itself won't change its look, but trust me, it'll become way more powerful!
09. STATUS CHANGES
Learn about the status changes in Resonance of Fate, including Fire, Ice, Shock, Poison, and Oil, and how they affect battles.
Status abnormalities (status effects) in Resonance of Fate, while potentially devastating, all disappear after a battle. They can be prevented or their duration lessened by wearing the appropriate accessory, and all are healed by using a Cure item.
Status effects can also be harmful to enemies. Grenades and special ammunition possess these status effects.
Status Effects:
- Fire (Red): The target is on fire and sustains Scratch Damage once every second.
- Ice (Blue): The target is frozen and cannot act.
- Shock (Cyan): The target's charge time is slowed down.
- Poison (Green): The target loses health, sustaining Direct Damage, and cannot heal until cured.
- Oil (Maroon): Movement slows, and the target is weak to fire attacks.
Ice and Poison are the most dangerous to the team. Fire is probably the most effective on enemies. All machines are vulnerable to shock/electricity, and most dolls and fairies are weak to fire.
- All status effects disappear after a battle.
- Wear appropriate accessories to prevent or lessen the duration of status effects.
- Use Cure items to heal status effects.
- Fire is effective on enemies, especially dolls and fairies.
- Shock/electricity is effective against machines.
- Ice and Poison are the most dangerous status effects for your team.
10. STORAGE
Learn about item storage limits (999 per item) and where to change clothes in Resonance of Fate.
While you don't carry every item you own at all times, all your possessions are accessible. You can hold a maximum of 999 units of any given item.
Clothes can be changed in the following locations only: the clothes shop changing room in Ebel City, inside Sweet Home base, and within the Hotel at Cranktown.
