Introduction

Rune Factory, at its inception, was part of the Harvest Moon series and in facthad 'A Fantasy Harvest Moon' appended to the title. Some reviewers of thegame referred to it as 'Harvest Moon with a sword'. In fact, it quicklydeveloped into a series that, while sharing the fundamental philosophy of lifewith Harvest Moon, was unique.

Rune Factory 3 is the third Rune Factory game made for the DS platform. It hasmuch in common both with Rune Factory 1 and Rune Factory 2 but will delightfans of the series with surprising new aspects that have been added to thegame.

As with any Rune Factory game, there is a strong plot that will unfold as yourCharacter attains higher levels of success, unlocks new areas and achievesclose relationships with every member of the community. Requests given byother Characters can result simply in a material Reward or can advance eitherRomance or the Main Story.

Essentially, all Rune Factory games are based on farming and combat together asa means by which ingredients can be obtained to create items in many differentcategories: Medicines, Cooked Dishes, Weapons, Equipment and Accessories.

As in other Rune Factory games, items have more than one Level. One goal when

farming is to obtain higher levels of Crop Seeds in order to grow betterCrops. Your Character will be able to forge his own Weapons and Accessories,upgrading them by using higher levels of ingredients. War Trophies taken fromdefeated Monsters are essential ingredients in creating Weapons, Equipment andAccessories.

Requests System

Players of Rune Factory 2 will be familiar with the Request System but itsoperation is slightly different in Rune Factory 3. Although Requests doappear on the Bulletin Board outside the Flower Shop, you will be able to findthem in your postbox and obtain them from an Owl. In Rune Factory 2, youcould choose often between more than one Request. This is true in RuneFactory 3 as well.

As in all Rune Factory games, you will be given most of your basic tools if youare patient and satisfy the requirements of the giver. Watering Pot and Hoeare given by Shara as soon as she introduces you to your new home in theSharance Tree. Sickle, Axe, Hammer and Fishing Rod follow when you acceptRequests from villagers.

Shara will make the very first Request, asking you to introduce yourself toevery one in the village. This follows the pattern established in games suchas Animal Crossing where your Character will familiarise himself/herself withthe map and with all residents of the village by meeting and greeting eachone. Note that meeting an individual outside will not satisfy therequirement. You must experience every Introduction Event that occurs insidea Building AND properly introduce yourself to each Character. When you havecompleted this 'Request', she will ask you to ship one item. You can shipanything you wish. Return to her and she will give you four Pink Turnip Seeds.

Items given to you in Rune Factory 3 will be thrown onto the ground insidewooden Chests. Access the Chest and the contents will pop out onto theground. Always remember to take the Item (s) that you are given!

Note that you often will be able to find Chests randomly on the ground in thedungeons. The items these Chests contain are random but can consist of Seeds,Medicines, Crops or even Accessories.

The next Request is made by Wells. He will ask you to deliver a message toMarjorie. When you complete his Request, he will give you a Sickle.

In the next two Requests, you will be given a farm Tool that will allow you toperform the Request.

Sherman will ask you for 9 Wood. He will give you an Axe so that you can chopbranches or stumps into Wood.

When you complete his Request, you will be given 3000 Gold as well as the Axethat you used to perform the task.

Gaius will ask for a piece of Iron Ore and will give you a Hammer so that youcan smash the Rocks that contain Ores. He will not give you any reward perse, but you will be allowed to keep the Hammer.

Evelyn next will request a piece of Scrap Metal. Like her father, she isgenerous and will give you 2000G when you hand the Scrap Metal to her.

The next Request is made by Carmen. She will ask you to meet her for lessonsin fishing. When you do so, she will give you a Fishing Rod and request thatyou catch any Spring Fish. When you give her the Fish, she will give you aSardine.

Although Raven's 1st Request has no Reward attached to it and is more like anexamination, as you must substitute for her at the Smithy and give the correctprices for three Items on the Menu to customers who appear, her 2nd BulletinBoard Request is a potential Treasure Trove of Items. Raven's 2nd BulletinBoard Request is an opportunity to obtain valuable Weapons and Items. All youhave to do is enter her Smithy after accepting the Request. Six Items will bedisplayed on the carpet. She will tell you to take as many as you wish. Whenyou exit, the Request will be completed. As these Items are chosen randomly

at the time when the Request is accepted, you should save your game before youaccept her Request. If you do not receive Weapons or Items that iinterestyou, simply reload your game and try again. This Request is a Simple Request,however, and therefore may appear at a different point in the game.

There are three types of Requests in Rune Factory 3. Ordinary Requests from anindividual that have no sub-division appear to occur in a specific order. Battle Requests and Simple Requests are the other two types of Requests. Theyappear randomly at the three locations and do not have any specific order. Itis possible for Battle Requests and Simple Requests to appear and be completedmore than once.

Next to the Bulletin Board is another board that provides Request Tips asfollows: Simple Requests and Battle Requests are requests that you cancomplete many times. Once you complete them, people will usually repost themsoon. Simple Requests usually involve fetching certain items. BattleRequests will require you to defeat certain monsters. The Items that aregiven as Rewards for completion of Simple Requests often are chosen randomlyfrom a group of Items. For example, if the Reward is a bag of Seeds and aFormula, you may receive a different bag of Seeds and a different strength ofFormula if you reload and try the Request again. Ordinary Requests, on theother hand, tend to have set Rewards that will not vary.

Although you cannot accept a Request from another location while any Requestremains pending, once a Request is completed, you will be able to accept aRequest from each of the other locations. The limit is one Request perlocation per day. Note, however, that once a Request is accepted from anylocation, you will not be able to take another Request from THAT location onthe same day even if you abandon the first Request.

Free Items

There are free items to be found throughout the village, stashed in locationswhere you can interact with objects, usually inside buildings. The

interesting aspect to this treasure hunt is that you must access the object inthe right circumstances in order to find the 'treasure'. Usually, this occursonly when the owner of the house or one of its residents is present in theroom. If you access the object when no one is in the room, you usuallysimply make an observation to yourself.

Some of the items that you can find are as follows:

Flower Shop, lower left corner: 1 Bag of Toyherb Seeds

Flower Shop, upper floor: 1 Pudding in the centre of the northern wall, only when Shara's sister Monicais present and awake (between 9.45 p.m. and 9.55 p.m.) 1 Rice Ball in the top right corner, only when Shara is present and awake(after 10.00 p.m.)

In a tub in the Inn in Pia's room: a Squid

In a drawer to the left of Daria's bed: Miso Eggplant

In Blaise's Diner in the northeast: Wine

At the table on the upper floor of the Blacksmith, Snapper Sashimi (9.15 p.m.when Raven has gone down the stairs but Gaius is upstairs and still awake)

In a hole in a cliff on the shore of the river in the Autumn Dungeon: SaltedSmelt

Basic Farming

Your home is in a Tree in Rune Factory 3, and it is no ordinary Tree but onethat is sacred and akin to the Mother Tree in ToT and Animal Parade. Belowyour living space are two fields where you can grow Crops. These fields aresubject to the passing of the Seasons

Veteran players of the Rune Factory series will be familiar with the basicrules of farming. Crops remain seasonal as in any Harvest Moon game, but inRune Factory, fields can be found somewhere on the map that are ruled by eachof the four Seasons. Fields that are ruled by a specific season throughoutthe year are located in the Dungeons in any Rune Factory game.

In Rune Factory 3, the four Seasonal Dungeons will be accessible from the startof the game. The Spring Dungeon, Privera Forest, is populated with the leastpowerful Monsters and therefore should be the first that you explore. TheMain Plot requires that you face a Boss Monster in Privera Forest to regainyour powers of Tranformation as well. You therefore will find yourself in aposition where the first Dungeon Fields that you can till will be those ruledby the current Season at the start of the game, which is Spring.

You will be given Seeds by other Characters in the form of Toyherb Seeds andPink Turnip Seeds. The same Seeds can be purchased at the General Store aswell. There are other Spring Seeds and although they will not be sold at theGeneral Store, they can be obtained fairly easily in Privera Forest.

Crop Seeds are sold at the General Store by Hazel and her lazy daughter Karina,but all Flower Seeds are sold by Shara at the Flower Shop. In Spring, shewill offer Flower Seeds for all Seasons. It would be a good idea to purchasea few Moondrop Seeds, but you need not purchase Toyherb Seeds.

In Rune Factory 3, it is not necessary to purchase Seeds for the most part andthis is where the game differs substantially from earlier Rune Factory games. Seeds can be found randomly in any field when you harvest a Crop or forage bycollecting an item grown randomly, such as coloured Grasses, Medicinal Herbs,Antidotal Herbs and even Weeds.

The Seeds that are found in this manner are not linked to the identity of theitem you harvested or collected. In other words, you can find Pink TurnipSeeds when you collect a Black Grass or other Item.

Other methods of obtaining Seeds are by defeating Monsters or finding Chests inthe Dungeons. Chests will be deposited randomly throughout the Dungeon Mapsand their contents always are random. They may contain Seeds, Crops or otherIngredients, Cooked Dishes or even Accessories. Foraging and explorationtherefore are an excellent way of obtaining Items in the first Spring either

to ship or to use as Ingredients or Gifts.

Another way in which Rune Factory differs a little from previous games is inthe way Crops grow as well as the quality of the soil. Crops can turn browneven if you have tended them properly, but it would be a mistake to think thatthey therefore will not mature. As in Grand Bazaar, you simply need to waterthem in order to restore them to health.

Brown Crops, however, do have a function in that, if harvested, they becomeWithered Grass which is akin to Fertiliser. Throw a piece of Withered Grasson any square and then till it with your Hoe to improve the quality of theSoil. Soil WILL need to be improved if you have grown Crops there previously. As with soil in the real world, repeated plantings will leach the nutrientsfrom the land. Use the Formulae A, B or C or Withered Grass to revitalise thesoil.

The easiest way to restore soil is by rotating your Crops, however. Simplyallow the land to rest for a time, planting new Crops in different squares onthe field. If you replant in squares where you have harvested Crops, the newCrops will take longer to mature and will be of inferior quality. They WILLgrow and they can be harvested ultimately, but it is far better to plantelsewhere, even if the lazy player will be tempted by the sight of a tilledsquare in a location where a Crop has been harvested.

Weather is another element that is slightly different from previous games inthe series. It is more realistic in a sense as the weather can change in thecourse of a single day, beginning with sun and ending with showers.

You may wish to wait until afternoon before you water your Crops as a passingshower may water them for you, saving you time and energy.

Another method of obtaining Seeds is by cutting a ripened Crop with your Sickleinstead of harvesting it with your hands. A Crop that is cut will yield Seedsat a higher rank, but you will not be able to obtain a Crop as well!

At the start of the first Spring, Formula A and B are sold by local merchants

but it is not necessary to use them as there are other more pressing needsthat will require money. Purchasing defensive equipment for combat andUtensils for cooking are far more important.

Where foraging is concerned, most Items simply can be harvested by pressing theA Button, but Bamboo Shoots are rooted in the soil. You therefore need to useany sharp Tool or Weapon to sever the roots from the soil, then press A toharvest the Bamboo Shoot.

In dungeon areas, you will find the usual seasonal array of coloured Grasses,Medicinal Herb and Antidotal Herb as well as Branches, Rocks and Weeds on theFields, but often Items can be found as well along the edges of any screen. Investigate wherever you see a red arrow to find Crops, Flowers and evenCooked Dishes!

Incidentally, the Treasure Chests that appear randomly on certain screens inevery Dungeon contain random items that can include Seeds. The Seeds found inany Treasure Chest need not be specific seasonally to the Dungeon in which youfound them. In other words, you may find Summer or Winter Seeds in a TreasureChest in the Spring Dungeon.

Shara's Farming Tutorial

After you save your game for the first time during the tour of your home, Sharawill take you to your Fields. You have two Fields at the foot of the SharanceTree. Both will be filled with coloured Grasses, Medicinal Herb, AntidotalHerb, Branches, Weeds, Rocks, Stumps and Boulders.

During her Tutorial, you will be required to defeat a Monster who appears withyour Hoe. After this, two more Monsters will appear and you will be offered aWeapon of your choice by Gaius from the Weapons Shop. After the two Monstersare defeated, Shara will remark that the monsters 'looked pretty strong'.

You now will have a choice of responses:

Yes, they were strong!They were pretty weak, actually...

If you agree that they were strong, Shara will move forward to give you afarming tutorial. If, however, you declare that the Monsters were weak, yourarrogance will cause three more Monsters to appear. These Monsters will bemore powerful than the first three and you may use most of your RP and HPbefore you are able to defeat them. When defeated, a prompt will appear tothe effect that the game difficulty level now has been set to 'Hard'.

This is another aspect of Rune Factory 3 that is new to the series. You canset the difficulty of combat in your Trophy Room. It is only if you bragabout the weakness of the Monsters that the game automatically will be set to'Hard' but if you wish for the most challenging combat, you can set it to'Hard' yourself at any point.

Once the Monster situation has been resolved, whether by the defeat of the twoMonsters or the defeat of three additional Monsters, Shara will offer to giveyou a Farming Tutorial. It is your choice whether to accept or not. If youaccept, you will gain a number of advantages, even if you know how to farm!

When you accept the offer, she will place 9 Weeds on the Field in a single plotand tell you to clear the plot. This is an opportunity to clear both Fieldsentirely. Note that you cannot harvest any Bamboo Shoots at this point,however, as Shara will tell you to 'stop fooling around' if you attempt toequip any Tool or Weapon! You can harvest all Wild Grasses as well asMedicinal Herbs, Antidotal Herbs and, if you wish, all Branches and Stones. If you wish to clear both Fields, you should not collect the Weeds she placeduntil all other Items have been collected as, when the ninth Weed has beencollected, she will tell you to equip your Hoe.

You now will be told to till 9 squares in the plot where the Weeds had beenplaced. When this has been done, Shara will give you 9 Toyherb Seeds to sow. After the Seeds have been sown, Shara will place six Withered Grass and threeToyherbs on the Field to the right in another square. You will be told to

harvest both the Flowers and the Withered Grass. This will give you threeToyherb and six Withered Grass to use or ship.

She will point out the location of the Wood Shed and place a piece of lumber onthe ground for you to collect and deposit there.

Shara finally will give you three Toyherb Seeds and take her leave.

If you refuse her offer of a Tutorial, you will receive only three ToyherbSeeds and the clock will begin to run when she takes her leave afterwards.

Farming Controls

You can harvest ripe Crops as Crops or cut them with a sickle to obtain higherlevel seeds. B Button tills land, uses weapons and tools. A picks up itemsand talks to people.

Basic Farm Tools

Shara will give you a basic Watering Pot and Hoe at the start of the game. When you complete Well's first Request, he will give you a basic Sickle. Accepting Sherman's first Request will allow you to obtain a basic Axe andwhen you accept Gaius' first Request, you will be given aa basic Hammer. WhenCarmen's first Request appears, accept it to obtain a basic Fishing Rod. Inmany of these cases, the Farm Tool is not the actual reward for completing thetask but a necessary item if you wish to perform the Request.

The initial Requests that allow you to obtain your Basic Farm Tools, includingthe Fishing Rod, appear in a set order, beginning with Well's Request (withgift of Sickle) and ending with Carmen's Request (with gift of Fishing Rod). When you have completed Carmen's Request, she will tell you:

Carmen: (!) Oh wait a second! have you been looking in your mailbox?

My mailbox...?

Yeah! You know, the mailbox next to your front door! As you get to know the

people around here better and better, they'll send letters to your mailbox!

Oh really?

Yes! So be sure to take a look in your mailbox sometime! Some one might belooking for your help, and you wouldn't even know it! So be sure you don'tignore them!

Note that all the basic Farm Tools that are given to you are sold by Raven atthe Weapons Shop. If you 'lose' any Tool, therefore, you can replace it bypurchasing another. In Rune Factory 3, Tools can be shipped. Remember thatyou can accept only one Request from each Location daily. If, then, you wishto be able to fish immediately, purchase a Cheap Fishing Pole from Raven at the Smithy and then ship it when you find Carmen's Request on the BulletinBoard.

You can find Tools, Weapons, Equipment and Accessories in the Dungeons. AWooly in Privera Forest dropped a pair of Clippers as a War Trophy, and Freyrfound a Cheap Hammer in a Treasure Chest on the same screen. Cheap Braceletsoften are dropped by Orcs in Privera Forest as well.

Introduction to Cooking

In order to be able to begin to cook, you will need a Kitchen Counter. You canobtain this (as well as Cookware later) from Blaise when he is behind hiscounter. Simply ask about his Cookware and he will give you a KitchenCounter.

Kitchen items from Blaise are delivered instantly to your House and installedin your Kitchen.

A new aspect of Cooking in Rune Factory 3 is the concept of Recipe Breadsinstead of Cookbooks. Recipe Breads made by Blaise, when consumed, will teachyou a single Recipe in a specific category. Breads are manufactured and soldin the following categories:

Cooking Bread: 200G

Weapon Bread: 350GAccessory Bread: 300GFarming Bread: 450G

You can buy 3 to 5 loaves of Bread per day from Blaise. The Recipes containedin these loaves of Bread appear to be loaded into the game at the moment ofconsumption. You therefore can save your game before you eat any and thenreload if you obtain no useful knowledge from the Recipe Bread.

There are superior Breads in the form of Recipe Bread + that will teach twoRecipes instead of one. When Blaise announces that the loaf he baked isparticularly 'delicious', it denotes Recipe Bread +.

Learning Recipes by consuming Recipe Bread is possible only if your own SkillLevel is sufficient to meet the minimum requirements to make the specific Itemthat is the subject of the Recipe. If your Skill Level is too low, you willlearn nothing when you eat the Bread. This is another reason to save yourgame BEFORE you consume any Recipe Bread.

There is a nameless 'Traveler' who appears in the village and wanders from shopto shop who will offer to sell you Recipe Breads for 800G each. You cannotchoose a Category of Bread when buying from the Traveler. It is quite randomand very overpriced, similar to Won's visits to your Farmhouse when he offershis special Apples for exorbitant prices. On the other hand, there is no setlimit to the number of loaves that you can purchase from the traveler.

You actually can make Cooked Dishes without having the Recipe for them, but ifyou have been 'taught' the Recipe, your chances of success will be greater. As in other Rune Factory games, you must Cook frequently and make the samesimple Dishes again and again in order to raise your Skill Level in Cooking toallow you to make more complex Dishes.

Fortunately, Pink Turnips, a Spring Crop, can be made into Pickled Turnips withnothing more than the Kitchen Counter given to you by Blaise. Your chance ofsuccess will not be guaranteed initially but Pickled Turnips may be theeasiest of all Cooked Dishes to make.

Refer to the detailed sections on Cooking and Recipe Lists for more

information.

The Fruits of any Harvest

Runes exist but their appearance is a little different in this game. A Runemay appear randomly AFTER you harvest any Crop. Rune Spirits can appear in thesame fashion. If not used immediately, the Rune or Rune Spirit will vanish. You therefore should not harvest your Crops as soon as you awaken when your RPgauge is full but rather wait until it needs to be replenished.

Wells will inform you that:

Wells: When you pick crops from your field, runes and rune spirits might popup. If you get a rune, it will replenish some RP and raise a skill level. If you get a rune spirit, it will replenish some RP and raise one of yourstats a bit. If you don't pick them up quick, they'll disappear, so keep aneye out for them.

For players new to the series, Runes are tiny shining orbs of white light thathover over your field at a location where a Crop has ripened. In RF3, theyappear only AFTER you harvest the Crop. Rune Spirits resemble the Runeys inRune Factory Frontier, as they are tiny carrot-shaped ghostly creatures thatappear over a square where you have harvested any Crop. Their appearance inRF3 appears to be utterly random.

Another source of Runes incidentally are the Rune Flowers that can be found indungeons. Use your Sickle to cut them. Once cut, you will be required towait until the next day for their reappearance.

Flowers, when consumed, replenish RP to some extent. Like most food items, theeffect is of temporary duration, usually lasting 3 Hours. When your Charactereats any food item, the icon of an Apple will appear next to his Energy Bar,indicating the beginning of the time period of its effect.

Blue Rune Crystals can be found in the dungeons and when smashed with yourHammer, will yield a Rune.

Bags of Seeds can appear randomly whenever you harvest either a Crop or a WildItem on your Field or on a Field in any Dungeon. They are not specific to theSeason that rules the Dungeon in the same way that Seeds found in TreasureChests in a Dungeon can be Seeds for ANY Season.

Lumber

Lumber or Wood always is a vital Item in Harvest Moon and Rune Factory, as itis required for any construction projects, including building expansions andnew building projects.

In Rune Factory 3, however, Wood is extremely easy to obtain. You will findBranches strewn across both of your fields as well as Stumps. ALL of thesecan be chopped with the Rusty Axe you receive from Sherman. One chop willdestroy a Branch. Each chop on a Stump will produce one Wood and you canobtain a total of 12 Wood from any Stump.

A Monster Barn requires 40 Wood but has no other cost. Your next projects willbe to create a Forge, Workshop and Pharmacy. The costs of these are:

Forge: 100 Wood + 5000GWorkshop: 50 Wood + 3000GPharmacy: 40 Wood + 2000G

You will be able to build a Monster Barn once you have defeated the Raccoon inPrivera Forest. This does not require a high level of Skill, actually and youshould be able to defeat him and move forward into the Sol Terrano Desert atthe end of the first week of Spring without any difficulty. If you wish tomove the plot forward, simply dash through the screens in the Desert until youfind the Univir Settlement in the north. Once you have spoken to Kuruna aboutthe history of the enmity between Monsters and Humans, the Sharance Tree willexpand to allow you to build a Forge, Workshop and Pharmacy.

The initial Barn will have a single room with space for four Monsters. You canorder additional 'barns' or chambers from Raven.

When you have tamed Monsters, setting them to work in different quadrants ofyour Field will allow them to chop Wood for you as well as watering your Cropsand collecting wild Items. If you set them to sow Seeds, you will be requiredto pay for the privilege, but they will collect the Seeds that are obtainedduring harvests and sow them. If you do not set them to sow the Seeds and youdo not collect them yourself, you will find that you have lost a useful assetin terms of Seeds for new plantings.

Energy Recovery

Your Character should awaken each morning at 6.00 a.m. with full HP and fullRP. Staying awake through a night is possible but will sap your Character'sresistance and he usually will catch a Cold at 6.00 p.m. if he has not gone tobed.

You need not sleep a set number of hours, however, and it appears that going tobed close to 5.00 a.m. even with both HP and RP severely depleted will notaffect your chance of awakening fully refreshed.

Cold Medicine is one of the Items that can be found randomly in Chests in theDungeons. It would be a good idea to keep one on hand in case of emergencies.

As in other games, your RP gauge can reach zero without causing your Characterto pass out. It is when your HP gauge reaches zero that your Character willfaint. Whenever this occurs, he will find himself in Marjorie's hands at theclinic. She will inform you of a random amount as her fee to restore you toconsciousness but usually will waive the fee. Passing out will not cause youto lose any time at all, unlike other games where you will be forced to rest,often through an entire day.

There are many methods by which you can recover both HP and RP during the day. All Wild Grasses have some restorative powers. Medicinal Herb restores HPwhile coloured Grasses restore both HP and RP in most cases. Antidotal Herb,

incidentally, will stop the course of poison if you have been poisoned.

Use of any Magical Spells apart from Teleport requires RP. If your RP gauge isempty, you will not be able to perform any offensive magic. You will be ableto teleport out of any Dungeon or from any location back to your home even ifyour RP gauge is empty.

The power to Transform that you have will remain inert until you have defeatedthe Raccoon in Privera Forest and touched the magical orb on the Dais there. Once you have the power of transformation, your Character will be able to setit to the X or Y Button.

The first Magical Spell you should purchase is Cure, which will be sold byMarian from the start of the game. Cure will restore some HP to yourCharacter, but you will need some RP to use it.

If you go to the Bathhouse, you can pay Pia to use the Men's Bath. This willreplenish your Energy.

Remember that almost any activity in Rune Factory requires energy, includingCooking and Forging. Whenever you are working on any project, you must payattention to your Energy Gauges as it is very easy to deplete your RPcompletely. Once your RP is at zero, HP will deplete at an alarming rate,sending you to the Apothecary when the gauge reaches zero.

Note that Marjorie will not charge for your Recovery until you have met theUnivir Tribe in Sol Terrano Desert.

Recovery Items

A simple Medicinal Herb will restore +20 points of HP. Any coloured Grass willrestore +3 HP and +3 RP. This may appear insignificant at first glance, butthe key to good health in Rune Factory is never to allow your RP gauge to fallto zero. As previously discussed, with RP at zero, your HP begins to decreasedrastically. It therefore will help if you eat one coloured Grass if your RPreaches zero BEFORE you undertake any action, whether to till or water asquare in a Field or to cook a Dish.

Bamboo Shoot is one of the best of the Items you can find on the Fields in thefirst season of your game, as its values are:

Bamboo Shoot: HP Rec +5, RP Rec +15, HP Max +3, RP Max +3, STR +1, VIT +1. Eat a Bamboo Shoot to restore RP, then eat Medicinal Herb to fill your HPgauge again if it has decreased.

Cooked Dishes always provide better Recovery than raw Items and where RP isconcerned, one of the best Items you can make fairly early is Medium Cheese.

Medium Cheese: RP Rec +75%

Medium Cheese is made in a Mixer, using any size of Milk and one Yellow Grass. You do have to have some Cooking Skill to make it but it is worth the effortas you can see. Most of the other Recipes that you can make early in the gamerestore more HP than RP and HP can be restored by eating the humble MedicinalGrass that grows everywhere. Furthermore, as discussed earlier, you can usethe Cure Spell to restore HP but only if you have some RP!

The Cooking section of this Guide gives more suggestions for some easy Dishesfor a player in early Spring.

Early Exploitations

On your very first day in Sharance, you can collect many of the 'free' Itemsstashed throughout the village. Their locations are given in another sectionof this Guide. Make certain that you ship them before 5.00 p.m. if you wishto have more income than the initial 500G that you have in your inventory.

Go into Privera Forest even if your Level is low, saving your game before youenter the Dungeon. There often is a Chest on the first screen that cancontain two to four random Items, including Crops, Cooked Dishes, Ingredientsor Accessories. Exit and re-enter the Forest again and again to find theseChests. Ship the Items that you find for early profits in order to be able topurchase basic defensive equipment, Cooking Utensils and Ingredients from the

General Store.

Incidentally, your Character actually can find basic Tools in Chests in theDungeons and Tools as well as Weapons and Accessories may be dropped as WarTrophies by Monsters. For example, the Wooly in Privera Forest may drop apair of Clippers!

Another exploitation that is not restricted to the first few days exists withrespect to the Special Deals Menu at the Blacksmith. The Items in this Menuwill be loaded at the time of your first visit to the Blacksmith on any givenday. Some special Weapons and Accessories that are far superior to thosefound in the regular categories are offered as Special Deals.

Save your game BEFORE you go to the Smithy for the first time. Go to theSmithy and ask about the Special Deals for the day. If the Item or Items youseek are not included in the day's Menu, reload your game and try again.

Initial Priorities

In any Harvest Moon or Rune Factory game, it always is a mistake to become toofocused on a single aspect of your Character's life, whether it is Farming,Romance, Mining, Combat or even the Main Plot in the game. One of thegreatest challenges that faces any player is that of managing to juggledifferent tasks and goals successfully, never surrendering to 'tunnel vision'.

Every player probably has a favourite aspect of gameplay in Harvest Moon andRune Factory, but you cannot pursue one activity to the exclusion of all otheraspects of the game. Social interactions and Friendship are as vital asobtaining a good income. Raising your Cooking Skills and completing yourCookbook is as important as exploring all of the Dungeons. You thereforeneed to plot out your days to some extent, making an effort to meet and greetthe villagers as well as the Eligible Girls, while maintaining control overyour Fields, harvesting ripe Crops, planting new Crops, and spending enoughtime in the Dungeons to increase your Combat Skills and obtain as many WarTrophies as possible so that your Character can create new Items.

Cooked Dishes often will have more FP value as Gifts than any raw Ingredients,so early success in raising Friendship Levels may depend somewhat on yourability to create the Dishes that will please a Character most. Remembering aCharacter's Birthday with a Favourite Gift is an easy way to raise FP. Todiscover an Individual's Birthday, you need to interact with him/herfrequently. Furthermore, the Requests that form the foundation of the gameare unlocked by specific Friendship Levels with the Individual who makes eachRequest. If you do not raise the Friendship Levels of all Individuals, youwill be unable to perform all possible Requests.

Do not be impatient to move forward in any particular area of the game tooquickly. It is far better to cover every aspect of the game than to raise oneSkill to the maximum level. If your Character is at Level 99 but hasneglected other Individuals, he will be unable to activate new Requests.

It is when you defeat the Raccoon in Privera Forest that the plot will moveforward. Moreover, all Shops will display an expanded Menu after this Event. More Seeds will be sold at the General Store, more Weapons and Accessorieswill be sold at the Smithy and more Spells will be sold at the Chemist. Mostimportantly, a Monster Barn can be built and Monsters tamed. There is noreal reason to rush forward, however. Requests should be fulfilled, one dayat a time while you divide your time equally between farming, fishing andexploring the Dungeons.

Social Interactions

Meeting and Greeting individuals is of fundamental importance in any RuneFactory or Harvest Moon game and serves many purposes. First and foremost, itraises Friendship Levels and this is a requirement for unlocking many newoptions, including new Requests as well as Events.

When you speak to any Character, you may learn important information as well. In Rune Factory 3, there are two basic types of Characters. There are Main

Character with whom social interactions have value in terms of FriendshipPoints and there are Subsidiary Characters who simply impart important tipswith respect to every aspect of gameplay.

Speak to every one, therefore, whenever you encounter some one anywhere on theMap.

The Value of Gifts

Gift-giving is very interesting in Rune Factory 3. Even the Gift of an Item towhich a Character is indifferent can be very useful as it prompts informationabout the Gifts that the Individual would rather have.

There are two ways of going about any research of Favourite Gifts. You canperform your social rounds armed with a few stacks of inexpensive colouredgrasses, giving one to each Individual you encounter and noting theirResponses. Birthdays often will be forthcoming as well.

Whenever an Item is given as a Gift, a small number will be displayed near theCharacter who accepts the Item. The colour of the number indicates whether itis received positively or negatively. Gifts with positive values will displaya green number. Gifts with negative values will display a red number. Anordinary Gift to which an Individual is fairly indifferent usually elicits agreen 3 or 6.

For example, when Freyr gave Wells a Pink Turnip, it elicited a green 6 and thefollowing Response:

Wells: This isn't a bad gift, but to be honest, I'd rather have a rice ball.

Only one Gift per day will 'count' in terms of raising or lowering FriendshipLevels.

Tips from other Characters

Evelyn: I heard that if you propose under the Sharance Tree, that love willblossom. ... Maybe I should try it.

Shino: Here's atip for when you get tired fighting in the dungeons... Lookfor some blue flowers or crystals. If you cut the flowers or break thecrystals, you'll find runes that will replenish your RP.

Advice from Subsidiary Characters

Some of the tips that you can obtain from Subsidiary Characters include:

Poison Squares and Neutral Agent

Zod: I stepped on a poison puddle the other day. Next time, I'll use NeutralAgent on it!

Poison Puddles or Poison Squares are deep purple in colour and can be foundrandomly on any Field in a Dungeon. Your Character will be poisoned if hesteps in one. More annoyingly, perhaps, is the fact that you will not be ableto till the square until the Poison Puddle is removed. The only way toaccomplish this is by dumpiing Neutral Agent on the Poison Puddle/Square.

Befriending Monsters with Cooked Dishes

Sally: Feed monsters something you've cooked if you want to be friends.

Save Points as Warnings

Your primary Save Point is in the 'Diary' at your bedside table but there areSave Points at the entrance to each of the Dungeons. You will find anotherSave Point in any Dungeon near the chamber where a Boss Monster is located. Save Points are purple Crystal Pyramids. In Rune Factory 3, you actually canpractice your Combat Skills on them and raise your Skill Levels. Whensmashed, they will reappear when you exit the screen and re-enter.

Bard: If you find a save point in a dungeon, save. It maeans somethingdangerous is near.

Sho: There are some people who fight monsters with farm tools. I don't getit.

This hint refers to the fact that every Item has its own unique Stats. Ofcourse, as Shara told you to defeat the first Monster you ever encounteredwith a Hoe, your Character will be well-aware of the ability to use Tools asWeapons.

Festivals

Festivals serve many purposes in Rune Factory and Harvest Moon. They are anopportunity to socialise with other individuals. It always is a good idea toattend any Festival even if you cannot participate. In Rune Factory 3, manyof the Festivals are Contests that will award special prizes if you win butoffer consolation prizes in the form of Recipe Bread if you simplyparticipate.

The first Festival is the Bean-Throwing Festival on 6 Spring. Your Characterwill be asked to play the part of a Demon and other Characters will throwBeans of different colours as well as Failed Dishes at him. The object is tobe hit by as many Beans as possible while dodging the Failed Dishes.

Even if you fail to win, you will be given 3 Cooking Recipe Breads forparticipating in the Contest.

As Festivals take virtually no time at all and you can participate at any pointduring the day by speaking to Wells in the Square before 5.00 p.m., there isno excuse for missing a Festival Event.

Unlike most other Harvest Moon and Rune Factory games where Events usuallycannot occur on a Festival day, in Rune Factory 3, you can accept and completeRequests as well as experience key events even in the middle of a Festival!

Calendar of Birthdays and Festivals

The Calendar on the Wall of your chamber in the Sharance Tree will be markedwith the dates of the Festivals but will include only a couple of birthdays as

Birthdays information must be given to you by some one in the village beforeit will appear on the Calendar. Shara will inform you of her Birthday andRaven's Birthday, so you will find them on the Calendar but you will need toengage in regular social interactions with other Characters if you wish tohave all Birthdays added.

Seasonal Information:Marjorie: The items you can forage in your field change with the seasons. Youcan get Bamboo Shoots in Spring, and Blue Grass, Green Grass, Purple Grass andIndigo Grass in summer. White Grass only grows in winter, so it's not easy togather it.

Introduction to Fishing

Although you can purchase a basic Fishing Rod as well as any basic Tool fromRaven from the very start of the game, you should wait as you will receive allof these in the course of performing Requests for Villagers. Your Fishing Rodwill be given to you by Carmen when you agree to perform her Request, which ispurely and simply to catch any Spring Fish for her and deliver it to her. Youwill be given a Sardine as a 'Reward' but being allowed to keep the FishingRod is the real reward for this act.

Fishing is very interesting in Rune Factory 3 in that, apart from being able tofish freely in any body of water in the village or in the dungeons, you canpay Carmen or Carlos for the privilege of fishing in their 'stocked' fishingarea.

Most Fish are seasonal, but in any Rune Factory game, you can catch Fish

restricted to each of the Seasons by finding the right location in a Dungeon. All four Seasonal Dungeons will be unlocked at the very start, althoughMonsters will be progressively powerful and difficult to defeat in theDungeons ruled by the later Seasons.

Fishing Controls: Use the B Button to equip, B to cast and B when the fishbites to reel it in. Do not hit the button when the fish first nibbles onthe bait. It may nibble three or four times before it actually takes thebait!

Friendship and Social Interactions

Any one familiar with Rune Factory 2 will realise at once how criticalFriendship Levels are in this game as the Requests that appear are linked tothe Friendship Levels of the Characters who make them. Romance is one of thepursuits as well and knowing what gifts and cologne an Eligible Girl likes aswell as her Birthday will advance your cause considerably. Remembering everyone's Birthday in fact is important to your success in life in any HarvestMoon or Rune Factory game.

In Rune Factory 3, although every Character's Birthday will be included on theCalendar on your Wall, you will have many reminders in case it slips yourmind. When you speak to other villager's on any Character's Birthday, theyare likely to mention the occasion and even hint at an appropriate Gift!

Give any Item to a Character and he/she usually will tell you what Item wouldbe preferred. Characters are very forthcoming about their Likes and Dislikesin Rune Factory 3.

A service Shara offers at the Flower Shop without charge is that of drenchingyour Character in Cologne. The Scent will change on a daily basis and everyScent appeals to different people. Favourite Scents as well as Likes andDislikes, Birthdays and Request information are included in my Rune Factory 3Characters Guide.

Your Introduction to Combat

Combat is an essential part of life in any Rune Factory game. Your Characterwill be initiated into combat in his first visit to the fields at the roots ofthe Sharance Tree where first one and then two more Monsters will appear.

You will be directed to use your Hoe to defend yourself against the firstMonster but when two more Monsters appear, Gaius will arrive and offer to giveyou a Weapon.

You now can choose your first Weapon:

Use shortsword!Use longsword!Use spear!Use hammer!Use axe!Use Staff!Use dual blades!

If you choose any weapon, you will see a prompt that gives you a littleinformation about the style of attack that the weapon type offers:

I'll take the easy-to-use shortsword! (Broadsword)I'll take the heavy longsword! (Claymore)I'll take the spear, so I can attack from a distance! (Spear)I'll take the hammer, so I can knock them out quickly! (Battle Hammer)I'll take the axe! It's slow, but it does a lot of damage! (Battle Axe)I'll take the magical staff! (Rod)I'll take the dual blades, so I can attack quickly! My defence will be lower,though! (Short Dagger)

My own personal choice always is the shortsword, as I tend to favour the use ofa Shield for defence and other Weapon types require two hands to use. You canchoose a different Weapon, however, in order to ship it for income, purchasingthe less expensive Broadsword from the Blacksmith after the encounter.

Of all the Weapons, the Broadsword is the least valuable in terms of shippingand the Battle Hammer is worth the most.

Access to Weapons and Equipment

Weapons, Equipment and Accessory Items can be purchased or forged by yourCharacter once he has a Forge and Workshop. Some Weapons, Equipment and

Accessories will be sold from the start of the first Spring. It is theSpecial Deals Menu at the Blacksmith Shop that will offer Weapons that wouldnot appear in the specific Categories at this stage in the game.

For example, although Raven sells a Broadsword in her Sword/Shields Menu, themore powerful Steel Sword and Cutlass only appear randomly in the SpecialDeals Menu. It therefore is a good idea to access her Special Deals on adaily basis if you wish to improve your Weapons and Equipment.

Combat Strategies

Never underestimate the importance of Defence in Combat in Rune Factory. Asimple Broadsword may not be as powerful as a pair of duel knives or an Axebut it will allow you to equip a Shield. Make certain that you purchase someequipment and Accessories as early as possible in the game. Even the humbleHand-Knit Hat and Cheap Bracelet, coupled with a Small Shield will keep yourCharacter healthy far longer than a powerful Weapon without any defensiveequipment.

In Rune Factory 3, you can set the difficulty level of the game by visiting theTrophy Room, accessed through the stairway on the right in your Home. If youbrag to Shara that the two Monsters you defeated during the Farming Tutorialwere fairly weak, the game will set your Difficulty Level to Hardautomatically but this can be changed at any time if you wish.

Basic Rules of Dungeons

Dungeons in Rune Factory are places that are ruled by specific Seasonsinhabited by Monsters. Players familiar with the series will find RuneFactory 3 similar to previous games in most respects.

You will find a purple crystal in the shape of a pyramid at the entrance to anyDungeon. This is a Save Point. It is a good idea to save your game beforeyou enter any hostile territory.

Monsters are screen-specific for the most part in Dungeons and are spawned by

Generators on the same screen. In Rune Factory 3, these Generators can be ofdifferent colours. When you destroy them, you can obtain an Item randomly. The items obtained from destroyed Generators are elemental Crystals. Thecolour of the Generator will indicate the Element that rules it and anyCrystal obtained will correspond with the same Element.

Gaius: Sometimes you can find crystals when you destroy those portal thingsthat the monsters come out of. And you can get different crystals dependingon the colour of the portal you destroy.

Whenever you leave a Dungeon screen and then re-enter, both Monsters andGenerators will respawn.

Walkthrough: Privera Forest

The Privera Forest, ruled by Spring, is the easiest Dungeon to explore as theMonsters are weaker than those of the Dungeons ruled by later Seasons. Moreover, it is essential to explore the Forest if you wish to regain yourpower of Transformation into Monster form.

Initiation into Monster Transformation

In the beginning of the first Spring, many Characters will speak of an annoyingRaccoon who has been vandalising the town, stealing food and ruining property. After this and after you have completed Well's first Request, when you visitthe entrance to Privera Forest, you should experience an Event with Wells thatwill initiate the first step in the main Plot.

Freyr: I have a strange feeling. Like something's pulling me towards here...

??? What are you up to?

Freyr: Wells?

Wells: You shouldn't wander into Privera unless you're prepared.

Freyr: Why? What's in there?

Wells: Monsters, of course! If you don't have a weapon with you, you're

liable to get walloped! And I here that troublesome raccoon is hiding inthere, too. It'd be nice if osme one would take care of him.

Freyr: Wells...

Your choices now:

I'll do it.Sounds too tough for me.

Choose: I'll do it!

Wells: Really?!

Freyr: Sure. I think I can take down a raccoon at least.

Wells: Thank you. Glad to hear it. The monsters in Privera Forest aren't tootough if you're ready for them. Just don't try exploring any other areas yet.

Freyr: Other areas?

Wells: On the west side of town are entrances to Vale River and Sol TerranoDessert. On the east side, you'll find Oddward Valley. The monsters i nthose places are a lot more dangerous than the ones you'll find in PriveraForest. So you'd better stick to Privera Forest until you've got a lot moreepxerience fighiting monsters.

Freyr: Got it.

Wells: I shoudl also tell you about Teleport. You can use Teleport when youneed to get home fast. If you're i a doungeon, it'll take you to theentrance. if you're in town, it'll take you straight to the Sharance Tree. Open the quick equip menu with L and equip the spell to X or Y. It doesn'tuse any RP, so you can use it any time. Teleport is a special ability. Youcan't removed it, so you'll always have it with you.

Freyr: Sounds useful. I'll try it out.

He begins to leave, then:

Wells: (!) And don't you go bringing any monsters back into town! I hatethose danged things!

Me (with tear) Right. You're not a fan of monsters. Got it.

Once you have experienced this Event, you need to explore Privera Forest tofind the two screens on either side of the river that contain two Statueseach. By pressing A next to any of the four Statues, you will be able torotate it. A prompt on the ground between the two Statues on either side willinform you that once the Statues face one another, the door will open.

It is not the two Statues on the same side of the river that need to face oneanother, but the two matching Statues of each pair. One will be found oneither side of the river. Turn each Statue therefore so that its face gazesacross the river. When this is accomplished, a stairway will open on bothsides of the river.

You now need to descend each stairway to discover that the bridge to which theylead is broken on both sides. You will be required to find some one who isable to fix the bridge.

If you speak to Wells, he will recommend both Gaius and Daria for the task. When you speak to Gaius, he will tell you to ask Daria for help.

Daria will agree to perform the task and will create a Rainbow Bridge instantly in an Event. You now can cross the bridge on either side to a smallplatform. A set of stairs can be found on the right of the platform. It willlead you to the Raccoon.

The Raccoon is a boss Monster although he will appear fairly innocuousinitially. The gate behind you will shut as soon as you confront him, so thatyou will not be able to retreat.

It is not too difficult to defeat the Raccoon although your first defeat of himwill cause him to tranform into a monstrous version of his smaller self. Nearthe end, he will acquire two Shadow selves who will aid him. When he isdefeated, he will drop a special item in the form of a Raccoon Leaf.

You then will be directed to explore an area to the east where you will find aglowing orb on a dais. Press A to touch the Orb and you will regain your ownpowers of transformation.

Your Character now will have the power to transform himself into a Wooly during

battles. When in Monster form, he will be able to execute special moves usingthe A, B, X and Y Buttons.

Oddly enough, although your Character will not be able to transform into aWooly in the presence of villagers, he CAN ride a Monster into any home orshop without causing any comment whatsoever.

Building a Monster Barn

It is only when you have defeated the Raccoon in Privera Forest that you willbe given the opportunity to build a Monster Barn.

When you speak to Raven at the Smithy after defeating the Raccoon, you willexperience a dialogue with her as follows:

Raven: Why did you defeat the monster in Privera Forest?

Freyr: Well, it seemed like it was causing problems for every one. I reallywish I hadn't had to...

Raven: Even though it was a monster?

Freyr: Well, it's not like all monsters are bad or anything...

Raven: I see.. We can build you a monster barn if you give us some of yourwood.

Freyr: A monster barn...?

Raven: Just talk to Gaius or me when we're working.

Freyr: Wait... I'm still confused...

Raven: What?

Now when you speak to her, a new option will appear in the Menu:

I've come to talk.I've come to buy.I want a barn.Never mind.

Raven: To build a barn, we'll need 40 wood. Is that okay?

After you confirm the order, she will tell you:

Raven: Now you can befriend monsters you find in the dungeons and take them

back with you. Monsters will come home with you if you give them food.

Freyr: Oh, really? Thanks, I'll try it out!

Raven: But they won't befriend you if they think you are weaker than theyare... So don't get eaten by mistake...

Freyr: I... I'll be careful...

The range of Weapons and Equipment that she sells will be expanded as well andsome Items that only appeared randomly prior to this as Special Deals now willbe added to each of the Categories.

When you have met the members of the Univir Tribe and the Sharance Tree isexpanded, her Menu will expand again.

Walkthrough: Sol Terrano Desert

After defeating the Raccoon in Privera Forest, you will experience a very briefencounter when you approach the Sharance Tree on your way home. A figurestanding near the Tree, seeing you, will bolt towards the path in the westthat leads to the Desert. When you first enter the entrance to the SolTerrano Desert after this, you will catch a momentary glimpse of the figureagain before it disappears into the Desert.

Wells will approach you at the entrance to the Desert, warniing you not toenter. Obviously, the Desert is the next destination for you if you wish tomake progress in the main Plot!

Univir Settlement

When you begin to explore the Sol Terrano Desert, you should experience anEvent when you first arrive at a narrow defile in the north. Here is theentrance to the Univir Settlement, a fabled tribe of creatures who, led by the'Horned Girl' Kuruna, have declared unrelenting war against humanity.

You will be unable to enter the Settlement, in fact, until you have transformedinto your Wooly persona. When you have done this, you will be welcomed warmly

and urged to join their cause.

Karuna is the 'Elder' and leader of the Univir. You need to speak to her inorder to experience the following dialogue:

Kuruna: Do you know the town nearby? The people there ran us univir out oftheir town! (with cross hurt)

Freyr: Really?

Kuruna; Yes, univir and humans used to live together.

Did something happen?

Kuruna: ... I am not sure.

Freyr: ...

Kuruna: i don't know the reason. It was before I was born. But we wereexiled, and now we live here. They are all savages! So you should be carefulnot to wander too much outside. The humans might do something to you.

Freyr (She really hates them. I wonder what happened...) (Maybe Wells knowssomething.)

Introduce yourself to the handsome dwarf Zaid and to Ondorus, then return toyour home to experience an Event with Wells.

When you return to the Sharance Tree, you will experience an Event with Wells.

Freyr: (Huh?) The Sharance Tree grew...?

Wells: (!) What in the world...?

He walks up to me. Freyr now is in human form although he never transformedafter leaving the Univir Settlement.

Wells: Have you been feeding the Sharance Tree a special fertiliser orsomething?

Freyr: No, I didn't do anything.

Wells: What could have caused this, then?

Freyr: Um, Wells. Did you know about the univir's camp?

Wells: Yes.

Freyr: Is that why you told me not to go into the desert?

Wells: Yes, I didn't want you to run into that camp of human-hating monsters. I'll bet their elder kicked you out the second she laid eyes on you.

Freyr: Huh? Oh, yeah! S-She sure did. Because I looked totally human, ofcourse.

Wells: I thought so.

Freyr: Thought the elder did say something about how the univir lived in thistown until they were chased out. Do you know anything about that?

Wells: All I know is that happened a long, long time ago. There aren't anyrecords of what happened or why.

Freyr: I see...

Wells: Freyr...

Freyr: Yes?

Wells: Don't do anything foolish.

Freyr: What?

Wells: We're better off without the univir.

Freyr: But...

Wells: Humans and monsters were never meant to live together. It's just notnatural.

He walks off.

Freyr (with black cloud) watches him leave.

Freyr: Wells hates the univir just as much as they hate humans. But why dothey hate each other so much? Maybe I should go talk to Kuruna again.

Before doing so, you can enter your home to discover how an upper floor hasbeen added. Shara now will appear, whatever the hour to suggest that theempty room upstairs could be a perfect work area where a forge, pharmacy andworkshop could be installed. You now will have the ability to craft itemsafter visiting Raven's Smithy to order a Forge or Workshop. When you visit

the Chemist to speak to Marian, the option to build a Pharmacy will be addedto her Menu.

Incidentally, the only item in the new room upstairs will be a Storage Chest. Sad to say, it is the same Storage Chest that you have in your originalchamber and no new slots will have been added to it.

When you visit Raven's Shop now:

Raven: The Sharance Tree got bigger...?

Freyr: Yeah, I've got a new room in there now!

Raven: I see... Gaius said that if you wanted, we could put a forge andworkshop in your house...

Freyr: What? Really?

Raven: Well, as long as you have enough gold and wood... Just be careful... Gaius may make it look easy, but forging is a lot of work...

Freyr: Thanks for the heads up.

Raven: Don't mention it. Let us know when you'd like them built...

Freyr: Will do! Thanks!

Now a new option will appear when you access her Menu:

I want a Forge/Workshop:Forge: Cost: 5000G, 100 WoodWorkshop: Cost: 3000G, 50 Wood

When you next speak to Marian at the Apothecary Shop, she will offer a newoption to create a Pharmacy.

Walkthrough: Skelafang and the Second Orb

If you wish to move the story forward, you need to return to the UnivirSettlement to receive instructions from Kuruna. Note here that there is aprimary Quest for Kuruna which must be distinguished from the Owl Requestsinitiated by Kuruna as well as Zaid and Ondorus.

The primary Quest by Kuruna requires that you accompany Zaid to two new areas

in the desert to obtain special items. The first item consists of DragonBones from an area in the southeast. When you give the Dragon Bones toKuruna, she then will direct you to obtain a Cactus Flower in an area in thesouthwest.

Both of these areas have voracious carnivorous plants in the sand that candamage your Character severely if his levels are low and he is not equippedproperly for defence. Zaid will fight the Monsters in the area with you, butif his Energy Bar reaches zero, he will fall to the ground until you havedefeated all Monsters on the screen.

When you have obtained the Cactus Flower, return to the Settlement toexperience an Event. While you were on your expedition, a Monster attackedand the Univir Tribe fear that it will be only a matter of time until the campis overrun.

You will volunteer to fight the Monster and Kuruna will open the gate north ofthe Settlement.

You now have to defeat the Skelafang Dragon. It appears to be fueled by anenergy cube that, when you have smashed all its bones, will cause it tore-assemble. The worst damage to your Character occurs when the skeleton hasbeen smashed and the cube is in the process of regenerating the Dragon. Itwill mount a whirling attack with its tail. The Dragon will reassemble a fewtimes before it finally is defeated. You definitely will obtain Dragon Bonesfrom Skelafang's skeleton and you may obtain Fish Fossils and a common Skullas well.

The Desert is strewn with dinosaur bones but the Dragon Bones that you obtainedinitially for Kuruna are quite different from the Dragon Bones obtained as aWar Trophy after defeating Skelafang. The former falls into the category of a'Present' while the latter can be used to upgrade Items.

When you have collected the War Trophies from Skelafang, go north to find asecond Orb similar to the one you found in Privera Forest after defeating theRaccoon. When you activate the Orb, you will recover a few more memories.

Make certain that you give the Cactus Flower to Kuruna before you return tothe Sharance Tree.

2nd Expansion of the Sharance Tree

When you return to the Sharance Tree, you will experience a little Event withSakuya. She will offer to give you some 'lunch' if you come to the Inn tocollect it later. When you enter the screen of the Inn, you will experiencean Event that will lead you ultimately to the next Dungeon.

Furniture at the General Store

Meanwhile, the practical effect of defeating Skelafang and finding the secondOrb is a second expansion to the Sharance Tree which will allow you to add newfurniture in the form of a Double Bed, a Bookshelf and a larger Storage Box. These new options can be found on the Menu at the General Store.

Sakuya and the Howling Food Stealer

When you attempt to visit the Inn next, you will experience an Event withSakuya. You will find her on the ground. Evidently, a large shadow stole thelunch she had intended to give to you and has made off with it.

The lunch is Salted Char, according to Sakuya. Go to Oddward Valley now toretrieve it. At each new screen, your Character will stop briefly to remarkthat the howling is growing louder...

At length, you will find a new Save Point at a screen hitherto inaccessible toyou. When you go north beyond the Save Point, you will find the dish on theground in the centre of a little circle. (Although Sakuya claimed to havemade Salted Char, the actual Dish is Super Fail.)

Crimson, Amaranthine and the Third Orb

Take the Dish and return to the village. You need to experience a series ofEvents before you can confront the Stealer of Char. Speak first to Sakuyaand she will announce that the Diner has been vandalised.

When you enter the Diner, you will experience an Event with Collette andBlaise. Once again, the Monster came to the village because it was attractedto Salted Char. The message is clear. If you wish to confront the Monster,you need to prepare Salted Char yourself and take it to the clearing inOddward Valley.

In case you did not recognise the connection, however, you will experience onemore Event when you approach the entrance to Oddward Valley. Carmen will runtowards you to announce that HER Salted Char was stolen by a lion-like Monsterin Oddward Valley.

Catch a Char, prepare Salted Char and gird your loins for battle. If you donot know how to make Salted Char, Blaise will be more than happy to instructyou if you speak to him after the Event with Carmen at the entrance to theValley.

When you enter the Oddward Valley with your Salted Char, you will be able toadvance unimpeded until you reach the Bamboo Cliffs. Here, two gates willslam shut, trapping you temporarily. Four Monsters of different varieties nowwill appear. You will be required to defeat them all before the gates willopen for you to allow you to go to the next screen in the west.

On this screen, two gates will slam shut, preventing your escape and this time,five Monsters of different varieties will appear. Once you have defeated allof them, the gates will open, allowing you to enter the screen with the newsave point.

Save your game and advance north to the little clearing to place your SaltedChar in the centre of the circle where you collected the Super Fail Dishpreviously.

As soon as the Salted Char is placed, TWO Lion-like Monsters will appear. Oneis Red and one is Blue.

Freyr: Wait, another one?! Which one attacked the diner?!

Both roar in unison.

Freyr: Guess it doesn't matter! They're both about ready to make me theirmeal!

When the Red one is defeated, he will drop Red Lion Fur. When the Blue one isdefeated, he will drop Blue Lion Fur and Quality Fur. You now will be able togo north to another clearing with a dais in the centre. An orb floats there.

When you investigate the Orb, you will experience more of your hitherto lostmemories and discover that you came to Sharance in fact on the trail of fiveMonsters. So far, you have encounted and defeated four of them... Oneremains.

A Research Lab?

When you next speak to Marian after defeating the twin Lion Monsters, she willremark:

Marian: Your home got bigger... So you have room for a research lab...

Freyr: What?!

No new options will appear on her Menu, however.

Walkthrough: Vale River

Sinister Laughter

When you approach the entrance to the Winter Dungeon for the first time afterdefeating the twin Lions, you will experience a little Event.

Some awfully sinister laughter will be heard in the distance.

Freyr: (!) Was that some one... laughing?! Disturbing... It sounded like itcame from across the river. I think I might be able to cross the river with amagic seed... Now, where to find one...?

Walking on Water

Even the description of Vale River hints at the need to be able to cross theriver: 'An ice-cold river divides the land. You'll need to find a way tocross it.'

Obviously, you can purchase a Magic Lily Pad Seed from the Flower Shop. Thereare some Water Shoes at the Smithy in the Special Deals section occasionallyat this point that will allow you to cross water as well. The list of Itemsoffered as Special Deals is generated randomly so if you wish to own the WaterShoes but have not obtained the Recipe yet to make them yourself, simply saveyour game before you visit the Smithy and, should the Menu not include them,reload your game.

Water Shoes: 50220G Special ninja shoes that allow you to walk on water. Sell: 1460G DEF +83

You will be required to cross the river more than once in the Vale RiverDungeon.

In order to pursue the source of the sinister laughter, you must cross thewater of the Vale River Dungeon and then continue north through a tunnel inthe ice.

When you enter the Crystal Cave area, your Character will halt to remark: Yikes! That eerie cackling again! Looks like the road ahead's protected by apowerful wind... Do I have to defeat all the monsters in this area...?

You will be confronted by a number of Turnip Ghost Monsters, Orc Vikings andDark Slimes. An arrow at the western edge of the icy ground will prompt athought:

Freyr: This ice seems ... unstable..

Your choice now:Try pushing it.Leave it alone.

Choose: Try pushing it.

Freyr: Uh... maybe that was a little too hard.

The pillar of ice will fall, creating a bridge to the western side of thescreen.

Freyr: Well, I can get across now, so it's all good!

The enemies from the other side of the area can move freely back and forth nowas well. You will be required to defeat all enemies on either side of thewater as well as the two Monster Generators in order to be able to moveforward. When this has been accomplished:

Freyr: It feels like the gusts have died down. I'll try moving ahead now.

To move forward, you need to exit the Crystal Cave at the northeast corner. When you enter the next screen, which is the Icy River:

Freyr: Ack! Again with the cackling! The gusts are knocking me back again. And who... or what... is behind all the laughing?

The view shifts to the other side of the water.

Freyr: Hmm... I'm getting a bad feeling from over in that area. If I defeatall the monsters in the cave, I might be able to move on.

You now need to defeat a pack of Silver Wolves, Little Wizards and more DarkSlimes in order to clear the area. Once again, there are two Generators andone will be found on either bank of the river. There is no way to create abridge here, however, and you therefore will need either to have the abilityto walk on water or to float across on a leaf. Although you need to clear thearea on the west bank of the River, the path to the source of the laughterwill be in the northeast corner again.

FONT COLOR=#5555CC>Monster Behaviour Guide

One could devote an entire book to Monsters and their habits and indeed, theyare an important aspect of any Rune Factory game. Monsters are yourantagonists in the Dungeons and in DEFeating them, your Character willincrease his Skill Levels in Combat as well as obtaining important Items asWar Trophies. When tamed, Monsters serve the purpose of Ranch Aniimals andFarm Workers. You can obtain products from them and set them to tasks on yourFields.

You will not be able to tame any Monsters until you have a Monster Barn. Theoption to build one will be added to Raven's Menu only after you defeat theRaccoon in Privera Forest. There is no cost apart from supplying 40 Wood forthe project.

When the Barn has been ordered, it will be completed instantly. You thereforecan go directly to any Dungeon to tame your first Monster! In Rune Factory 3,you do not use a 'Pet Glove' to tame Monsters. Instead, you need to ply theMonster with Food. The number of Items required to tame the Monster appearsto depend partly on the Monster's Strength or Level and on the food Item used. A simple Medicinal Herb or coloured Grass CAN be used to tame a Monster, butyou have to give it quite a few before it will be persuaded to come home withyou.

When the Monster has been tamed, you will be asked to choose a name for it andyou then can keep it with you in the Dungeon or send it to the Barnimmediately.

As soon as you arrive at the Barn after taming your first Monster, you willreceive a visit from Gaius, who will give you a tutorial about Monster Care aswell as 9 Grass.

Grass is the ordinary Feed for Monsters in Rune Factory 3. Grass Seeds can bepurchased from the Flower Shop from the very start of the game and as Grass isa Multiple Harvest Crop, you can plan ahead by growing some even before youhave the ability to tame and house Monsters. Use your Sickle to cut ripenedGrass for Monster use.

Monsters provide a wide variety of services in Rune Factory 3 and the precisenature of these always depends on the type of Monster you have tamed. Monsters can accompany you to the Dungeons as BATKle Companions. There are afew Monsters that can be used for transport as in other Rune Factory games.

Another service Monsters will provide is that of working in your Fields. Thesystem is a little different from other Rune Factory games.

When you speak to a Monster, you will have a number of options:

Take it with you.Help with the farm.Return to the Forest of Beginnings.

The choice to take it with you will open a new Menu:

Ride.Send back to the barn.

If the Monster is one that can be used for Transport, choosing 'Ride' willallow you to mount. If the Monster cannot be used for Transport, you willreceive a prompt to that effect. In RF3, any Monster who is being used forTransport can follow you into buildings and when you speak to villagers whilemounted, they will ignore the Monster completely! Furthermore, whethermounted or not, if a Monster Companion follows you into your home and you goto sleep, it will be waiting next to your bed when you awaken.

If you choose: Help on the farm.

Which part of the farm?

You now have the following choices:

Let it decideUpper LeftUpper RightLower Left

Lower Right

Note that only one Monster can be set to any quarter of a Field. You will becautioned not to set two Monsters to work in the same area as they then mayfight. If a Monster has been set to work in a particular quarter, that areawill not appear in the Menu when choosing an area for another Monster to tend.

When you have made the assignment for the Monster you will see a new option:

I can ask it to sow the fields if I pay for the seeds and work. What should Ido?

Ask to sow seeds.Don't ask to sow seeds.

This is an option with respect to the Seeds that are obtained from harvestedCrops. If you neither set your Monster to sow Seeds nor harvest your ownCrops, you will lose a valuable asset in terms of the Seeds dropped randomlywhenever a Crop is harvested.

Once a Monster is set to work, you will see the following if you speak to it:

The monster is currently assigned to work the upper right of the field. Choices now:

Remove from sowing.Remove from work.Take it with you.

You therefore can choose to ask a Monster to accompany you even if it is set towork in the Fields.

Make certain that you have enough Grass as Feed in the Barn for all yourMonsters. They will organise their own Feed if the Barn is stocked. Brusheach Monster daily and, to raise Heart Levels, feed it a Cooked Dish manually.

Note that Monsters set to work in your Fields will tire after a couple of days. You do need to feed them Cooked Dishes in order to restore their EnergyLevels! Grass in the Barn will not be sufficient for this purpose.

Ranch Products and Gifts

In Rune Factory Frontier, a tamed Monster randomly might leave you an offeringwhen you released it to the Forest of Beginnings but if it were not a Monsterthat produced Ranch Products regularly, you would not receive any Items fromyour tamed Monsters until then. In Rune Factory 3, on the other hand, thereare a number of Monsters who, when tamed, will leave offerings for you in theBarn.

For example, a tame Chipsqueek will leave Fur on the floor of the Barn and aWooly will leave a Small Fleece, even though you can obtain more Small Fleecefrom your Woolies by shearing them.

As previously discussed, Monsters set to work in your Fields will tire after acouple of days. When you see an icon that indicates this, feed the Monster aCooked Dish to restore its Energy Levels.

Working with Monsters

As previously discussed, you will not be able to interact socially with anyMonsters until you have Defeated the Raccoon in Privera Forest. Once that isaccomplished, Raven will add the option of ordering a Monster Barn to herMenu. It costs only 40 Wood to build a Barn and when ordered, will becompleted instantly.

Your Monster Barn is located in the northwest corner of your Field at the rootof the Sharance Tree. When you first arrive at the Barn after taming aMonster, Gaius will appear there to offer a Monster Tutorial.

When you have asked about every aspect of Monsters that interests you, Gaiuswill give you a Brush as well as 9 portions of Grass. If you have tamed aWooly, he will provide you with a pair of Clippers as well.

Gaius' Monster Tutorial

How do I raise Monsters?

Gaius: Raven told me that if you give gifts to monsters, it'll make themstronger. Different presents have different effects, though. For example, if

you give them a nice dish you've cooked, that works great.

Freyr: Uh, so what should I cook for them...?

Gaius: Uh... I dunno. Ask the monster, I guess. Only the first gift you givethem is effective, though.

How do I befriend Monsters?

Gaius: Raising your friendship with monsters is just like raising yourfriendship with people. It takes effort. Make sure to feed your monstersevery day. Your monsters won't like you if you don't feed them, after all. Besides that, if you don't feed them, their health won't recover, so theywon't do any work. Also, they'll be deprived of important nutrients if youdon't feed them. So, for example, a wooly won't grow wool.

Freyr: So, how much food should I give them per day?

Gaius: One piece of grass is enough for one room. Just place the Grass in theffed slot on the front of the barn. You can also put it in the box inside thebarn that's on the right side, just as you enter. Check the notebook for theamount of food you need and the food you have. Basically, monsters will behappy if they're well-fed, and they'll begin to trust you more. And don'tjust give them feed... Cook food for them from time to time. They'llappreciate it.

How can monsters help me?

Gaius: Take your monsters outside, and they'll follow and fight alongside you. Some monsters even let you ride them, so you should try it out.You should give your monsters daily chores to do as well. Sowing seeds,watering crops, harvesting... Your monsters can help you with a variety ofchores. But if you want them to sow seeds, it'll cost you money, though.

Freyr: Why does it cost money for the monsters to sow seeds?

Gaius: No idea. Also, if you assign two monsters to work in the same sectionof your fields, they'll fight. So, be sure to keep them apart. Your fieldsare very large, though, so it should be okay. Just use the notebook. Yourmonsters will work hard for you. And the stronger your bond with them, the

harder they'll work for you.

When the tutorial is complete:

Gaius: Oh, that's right. Raven wanted you to have these.

Freyr: What are they?

Gaius: It's a Brush and Clippers. They're for taking care of your monsters.

Freyr: How are they used?

Gaius: The Brush is used for brushing your monsters, and the Clippers are forshearing fur from woolies.

Freyr (sweating profusely) Sh-Shearing...?

Gaius: Hm? You look like you're shaking, Freyr. Is something wrong?...Anyway, you should brush your monsters frequently. All monsters seem to enjoya nice brushing. Oh, and here's some Grass for you, too.

Introduction to Forging and other Upgrades

Rune Factory 3 is different from prior games in the series where ForgingWeapons, Tools and Accessories is concerned. In previous games, there wereset ingredients that had to be used to make any new Item or to upgrade anexisting Item. In Rune Factory 3, there are set Recipes to create NEW Itemsbut where Upgrades to existing Items are concerned, any War Trophy can beused. This is the case both with respect to Items upgraded at the Forge andthose that are upgraded at the Workbench.

When you access the list of War Trophies, you will find that each has its ownunique characteristics and these will affect any upgrade made using that Item. Any Item used to upgrade an existing Weapon or Accessory will have an effecton one or more of the following: Attack, Defence, Magic Attack, Magic Defence,Strength, Vitality and Intelligence. Most effects are positive but a few arenegative!

Items can be upgraded only to Level 10, so make certain that you choose yourupgrade materials wisely as you will be able to use only 9 ultimately.

Dungeons and the Four Seasons

There are four seasonal dungeons in Rune Factory 3. Each successive season isprogressively more difficult in terms of the strength of its monsters. Youwill find tillable fields in all of the seasonal Dungeons. Wild Items,including Medicinal Herb, Antidotal Herb and Coloured Grasses specific to theSeason will grow randomly in all Dungeon Fields and you will find Branches,Rocks, Weeds and Stumps on these Fields as well. You can plant Crops specificto the Season in the Dungeons.

Poison Squares or 'Puddles' are deep purple and can be found randomly ontillable Fields in the Dungeons. Use Neutraliser purchased at the Clinic todissipate a Poison Square,Puddle.

If your Character walks over a Poison Square, he will be poisoned. Likewise,if you can persuade any Monster to follow you through a Poison Square,Puddle,IT will be poisoned as well! You should deal with any Poison Effectsimmediately. An Antidotal Herb can be eaten to clear all Poison from yourCharacter's system.

Monsters are Dungeon-specific and Screen-Specific and each has a set list ofWar Trophies. War Trophies are random effects of defeating any Monster andyou may not find ANY Items after a successful encounter with one. As everyCombat situation increases your Skill Level, however, it is to your advantageto fight the same Monsters again and again.

Many of the War Trophies dropped by defeated Monsters are ingredients that canbe used to create and upgrade Items when you have a Forge, Workshop andPharmacy of your own. Ores and Gems are used in similar fashion, so you maywish to stash a few War Trophies and Ores/Gems for future use.

Where forging Weapons and Accessories are concerned, there are no setingredients for Upgrades. Instead, you can choose the Item that you wish touse based on its stats. Weapons strong in Attack can be upgraded with Itemsthat give Defence or Magical Defence, for example, if you feel that you need

more defensive power. Each Item that can be used in Upgrades has specificstats. These are included in the War Trophies List.

In the following Monster Lists, you will find the name of the Monster with itsofficial description, the Combat Level at which it can be tamed, its Stats interms of HP, Attack (ATK), Defence (DEF), Magic Attack (MGC ATK), MagicDefence (MGC DEF), Strength (STR), Vitality (VIT) and Intelligence (INT), theWar Trophies that it may 'drop' when defeated and the Item that it 'gives'when tamed. The specific screen or screens in any Dungeon where the Monstercan be found is included as well.

In Rune Factory 2, the appearance of Monsters on any screen in most cases wereregulated by the time of day. There were Monsters who appeared on a screenonly during the day and others who would appear at night. Rune Factory 3 isquite different. Although each Screen has specific Monster types, the actualMonsters who appear when you enter any screen are chosen randomly from thegroup of Monsters specific to the area.

For example, the first screen in Privera Forest is the Lightway, where bothPomme-Pommes and Woolies appear. Whenever you enter the area, you can findtwo Monsters. They may be two Pomme-Pommes, two Woolies or one Pomme-Pommeand one Wooly.

The Gifts that a Monster leaves on the floor of the barn each day may or maynot be one of its War Trophies. For example, in the case of the Chipsqueek,the Gift that it leaves for you on the floor of the Barn is Fur, which is oneof its War Trophies. In the case of the Wooly, however, its Gift is SmallFleece, which is the item that you will obtain when you use the Clippers, butNOT one of its War Trophies.

Monster Health

In the same way that soil must rest in Rune Factory 3 in order to continue toproduce high quality Crops, tame Monsters must rest from time to time or they

will become tired or ill. If a Monster displays any of the status ailmenticons, the gift of a Cooked Dish usually will cure it, but you may wish torotate your Monsters in their chores as well. A Monster who is not in peakcondition will not leave a Gift on the floor of the Barn.

Transport Monsters

Many of the Monsters that you tame in Rune Factory 3 can be used for Transport. Whenever you interact with a Monster, you will have access to a prompt to'Ride' it. If it is a Monster that can be used for Transport, you will beable to mount it by using that option. If it is NOT a Monster that can beused for Transport, attempting to use the option will result in a message tothe effect that you will not be able to ride this particular Monster.

Some of the Monsters that you should be able to use for Transport are asfollows:

After defeating the Raccoon in Privera Forest, you will experience a very briefencounter when you approach the Sharance Tree on your way home. A figurestanding near the Tree, seeing you, will bolt towards the path in the westthat leads to the Desert. When you first enter the entrance to the SolTerrano Desert after this, you will catch a momentary glimpse of the figureagain before it disappears into the Desert.

Wells will approach you at the entrance to the Desert, warniing you not toenter. Obviously, the Desert is the next destination for you if you wish tomake progress in the main Plot!

Univir Settlement

When you begin to explore the Sol Terrano Desert, you should experience anEvent when you first arrive at a narrow defile in the north. Here is theentrance to the Univir Settlement, a fabled tribe of creatures who, led by the'Horned Girl' Kuruna, have declared unrelenting war against humanity.

You will be unable to enter the Settlement, in fact, until you have transformedinto your Wooly persona. When you have done this, you will be welcomed warmlyand urged to join their cause.

After you encounter Kuruna and the Univir Tribe, the Sharance Tree will grow,giving you an upper floor where a Forge, Workbench and Pharmacy can be placed. Raven will offer the Forge and Workbench while Marian will offer the Pharmacyoption.

The third location for Requests is in the Univir Settlement where, by speakingto an Owl perched near the Elder's Tent, you can accept Requests.

Cooking in Rune Factory 3

As in any Harvest Moon or Rune Factory game, Cooked Dishes have a variety ofuses and any player who mistakenly believes that he/she cn neglect culinaryskills in favour of combat soon will discover that the two go hand-in-hand. For a start, creating Weapons, Accessories and Medicines are based on the sameprinciples as Cooking in the Kitchen. Furthermore, Cooked Dishes have Energyvalues that are superior to those of raw Items.

Your home in the Sharance Tree will not include any area for cooking initially,but when you first speak to Blaise and choose the 'Cookiing Appliances' optionin his Menu, he will give you a Kitchen Counter. Basic Cookware then willappear in the Menu under that heading.

With the Kitchen Counter alone, you will be able to create 'No Utensil' or'Hand' Dishes. Learning an actual Recipe will increase your chances ofsuccess with any specific Cooked Dish but is not a requirement. You can usethe old 'trial-and'error' method or use this Guide to create new Dishes. Whenever a new Dish is created successfully, the Recipe will be added to yourCookbook. The difference between this method and the purchase and consumptionof Recipe Bread is that eating Recipe Bread will add the Recipe to yourCookbook whether or not you have or can make the Dish successfully.

In Rune Factory 3, Skill Levels in Cooking determine your success rate whereany specific Cooked Dish is concerned. You will not be able to make a Dish atall if you do not have the right Cookware or Utensil but even if you have boththe correct Cookware AND the Recipe for a Dish, you may be unable to make itsuccessfully if your Cooking Skill Level is too low.

If, therefore, you are using the 'trial-and-error' method to experiment in yourKitchen, you must not suppose that a failure signifies a lack of requiredingredients. It may mean solely that you do not have sufficient Skill toprepare the Dish.

In Rune Factory 3, you will not have a Pet Glove to tame Monsters. If you wishto tame any Monster, you must give it Food. Cooked Dishes again have far morevalue than raw Items in terms of persuading Monsters to surrender andaccompany you back to the Monster Barn. In like fashion, a favourite CookedDish often will raise the Friendship Levels of human Characters faster thanany raw Items.

When the actual Cooked Dish has been obtained but the Recipe has not beenacquired, the entry will not display the ingredients. Those will be added assoon as they are confirmed. Item information for any Cooked Dish when

accessed in-game does not include Skill Level requirements or the list ofIngredients.

Tip: When you wish to discover the actual Energy and Status Effects of any foodItem, press L and a detailed description of the Item with all Energy and StatEffects will be displayed.

Cooking Appliances from Blaise

In order to be able to begin to cook, you will need a Kitchen Counter. You canobtain this (as well as Cookware later) from Blaise when he is behind hiscounter. Simply choose his Cookware option from the Menu and he will give youa Kitchen Counter.

Kitchen items from Blaise are delivered instantly to your House and installedin your Kitchen.

As soon as you have the Kitchen Counter, the three basic Cookware items will beavailable from Blaise. These are as follows:

My choices:I've come to talk.Buy Recipe Bread.Cooking appliances.Expand refrigerator.Never mind.

Choose: Cooking appliances.

Blaise: You wanna cook? Then lemme give ya this Kitchen Counter!

After that, if you choose Cooking Appliances:

Blaise: Let me show you some basic cooking appliances, which one would youlike? Knife: 1200G Frying Pan: 2600G Mixer: 500G

When you have purchased all three Basic Appliances, he will declare:

Blaise: You already have all the basic appliances. Let me show you theadvanced ones.

Oven: 10000GSteamer: 5600G

Pot: 8800G

Ovens are a necessity in the kitchen if you're going to do any baking. That'llbe 10000G gold.

The steamer is a cooking appliance you should definiately have in your kitchen. That'll be 5600 gold.

You can cook a lot of interesting dishes with a pot. That'll be 8800 gold.

A new aspect of Cooking in Rune Factory 3 is the concept of Recipe Breadsinstead of Cookbooks. Recipe Breads made by Blaise, when consumed, will teachyou a single Recipe in a specific category. Breads are manufactured and soldin the following categories:

Medicine Bread: 160GCooking Bread: 200GWeapon Bread: 350GAccessory Bread: 300GFarming Bread: 450G

You can buy 5 loaves of Bread per day from Blaise. The actual Recipe that iscontained in the Recipe Bread will be random. If, therefore, you are given aRecipe that is fairly useless, you can reload and try again.

Note, however, that you will be unable to access the Recipe you have 'consumed'and learned unless you have the appropriate workspace or Cooking Appliance. In other words, you can purchase and 'learn' Forge Recipes by consuming WeaponBread, but you will not be able to access these Recipes until you have a Forgeof your own.

From time to time, Blaise will announce that the Recipe Bread you havepurchased is particularly delicious. These superior Bread loaves will containtwo Recipes instead of one.

There is a nameless 'Traveler' who appears in the village and wanders from shopto shop who will offer to sell you Recipe Breads for 800G each. You cannotchoose a Category of Bread when buying from the Traveler. It is quite randomand very overpriced, similar to Won's visits to your Farmhouse when he offershis special Apples for exorbitant prices.

You actually can make Cooked Dishes without having the Recipe for them, but ifyou have been 'taught' the Recipe, your chances of success will be greater. As in other Rune Factory games, you must Cook frequently and make the samesimple Dishes again and again in order to raise your Skill Level in Cooking toallow you to make more complex Dishes.

Fortunately, Pink Turnips, a Spring Crop, can be made into Pickled Turnips withnothing more than the Kitchen Counter given to you by Blaise. Your chance ofsuccess will not be guaranteed initially but Pickled Turnips may be theeasiest of all Cooked Dishes to make.

Another simple Dish that requires no Utensils is Rice Ball, made with theCooked Rice that you can purchase at the General Store.

Easy Dishes for an Aspiring Chef

As discussed previously, with a Kitchen Counter and no Cookware, you will beable to make a few Cooked Dishes almost immediately. You will not have 100%success rate initially, but you will gain sufficient Cooking Skill toguarantee success after you have made the Dish a few times.

Having the required Ingredients as well as Cooking Skill Levels will determinethe Cooked Dishes that can be made in the beginning of Spring.

Cooked Rice is one of the Items that can be purchased at the General Store. With this, you can make a Rice Ball.

Rice Ball: 300G Rice pressed into a triangle shape. Often packed as lunches, as they're goodon the go Ingredients: Rice. Sell: 150G HP Rec +50% Effect: 6 Hours Skill Level 6

Flour is another Item that can be purchased at the General Store and Bread canbe made without any Cookware. It does require a little more Skill than a RiceBall or Pickled Turnips, however.

Bread: 660G A staple of cooking. Can be toasted or filled and used in a variety ofdishes. Ingredients: Flour Sell: 330G HP Rec +50%, RP Rec +20%, HP Max +10 Skill Level 9

You should be able to harvest your first Pink Turnips within a couple of daysand you then can make:

Pickled Turnip: 960G (Lv. 1) Picked turnip. Its refreshing taste is great for cleaning the palate. Ingredients; Pink Turnip Sell: 480G HP Rec +40, RP Rec +35%, STR -3, INT +3 Skill Level 2

Pickled Turnips are one of the easiest Dishes to make. Making Pickled Turnipsfrom the Pink Turnips that you harvest is advantageous for a number ofreasons. Level 1 Pickled Turnips ship for 480G while a raw Pink Turnip shipsonly for 200G. You therefore can double your income by cooking and increaseyour Skill Level at the same time.

Once you have raised your Skill Level in the Kitchen, you should be able tomake:

Bamboo Rice: 400G (Lv. 1) Rice mixed with bamboo shoots. A delciious spring dish. Ingredients: Rice, Bamboo Sell: 200G HP Rec +40%, RP Rec +50%, RP Max +10%, STR +2, VIT +2 Skll Level 10

Bamboo Shoots are plentiful in Spring in your own Fields. You can use anysharp Tool to harvest them but if you use your Hoe, you will till a square ofland at the same time, allowing you to plant Seeds afterwards.

Another Ingredient that is plentiful once you have entered Privera Forest isthe Apple. Apples are War Trophies dropped by the Pomme Pomme Monsters aswell as fruit that grows on Trees in more than one area of the Forest.

To prepare the Apples, you will need a Mixer, but the Mixer is the leastexpensive of the Basic Cooking Appliances sold by Blaise. With a Mixer, youcan make:

Apple Juice: 166G Fresh apple juice. Allows the natural taste, colour and flavour of apples tobe completely enjoyed. Sell: 84G (Lv. 2) Skill Level 8 HP Rec + 20%, RP Rec +30%, STR + 1, INT +4

Sashimi is another class of Dishes that requires a Basic Cooking Appliance inthe form of a Knife. The Skill Level requirements for Sashimi depend on thetype of Fish that is used, so there are Sashimi Dishes that can be made onlyby an Expert Chef. Others, like Squid Sashimi, can be made by a beginner. You can find a raw Squid in a tub in Pia's room in the Inn.

Squid Sashimi: 260G Slices of raw squid served up for consumption. Generally eaten with soysauce. Ingredients: Squid Sell: 130G HP Rec +20%, RP Rec +30%, STR +1, VIT +4 Skill Level 9

In Harvest Moon, unless you have a Greenhouse, you are fairly limited in theIngredients you can obtain in any given Season, especially at the start of anygame. In Rune Factory, this is not the case, as there are Dungeons that areruled by each of the four Seasons. You are limited only by your skill inexploration and combat. If you can run fast, you can find Items in Dungeonsat the start of the game in Rune Factory 3 even if you would be defeatedinstantly if you were to be forced to fight any of the Monsters there.

Quality and Value

In Rune Factory 3, an Item's Quality is defined by its Level. Level 1represents the lowest quality and the Level of an Item determines more thanits Shipping Value. In terms of Items that can be consumed or used, the Levelwill determine the potency and effect that the Item will have. A Level 10Steel Sword will be more powerful than a Level 1 Steel Sword. A Level 10Squid Sashimi will have a more potent effect than a Level 1 Squid Sashimi whenconsumed.

If you compare all the values of a Level 1 Squid Sashimi with a Level 10 SquidSashimi, you will see that the differences are significant both in terms ofShipping Value and in terms of potency. The only variable that will notchange is the duration of the Item's Effect.

Squid Sashimi: 260G (Lv. 1) Slices of raw squid served up for consumption. Generally eaten with soysauce. Sell: 130G HP Rec +20%, RP Rec +30%, STR +1, VIT +4 Effect: 3 Hours

Squid Sashimi: 2600G (Lv.10) Slices of raw squid served up for consumption. Generally eaten with soysauce. HP Rec +38%, RP Rec +57%, STR +2, VIT +8 Effect: 3 Hours

Cooked Dishes Recipe Lists

Forging in Rune Factory 3

Forging is a process that will be familiar to players of prior games in theseries, but Rune Factory 3 is unique in many ways. First of all, you will

learn Recipes by means of the Weapons Bread that you can purchase and consume. Second of all, although the creation of a new Weapon requires set Ingredientsdelineated in the Recipe, the Upgrade of Weapons and Equipment can be donewith any number of Items.

In Rune Factory 3, War Trophies have specific Stats that will affect any Itemto which they are added in order to upgrade it.

The Menu at your Forge will be divided into two Options:

Make ItemUpgrade Item

If you choose the Option to Make an Item, you will be able to make it by usingthe required Ingredients, and the Recipes that you have learned will bedisplayed.

If you choose to Upgrade an Item, you will see two slots to the right:

MaterialItem

Below them:

Will Make:

The percentage that represents your chance of success then will be given.

For example, one can add a Plant Stem to an Aquasword.

The Aquasword has the following Stats:

Aquasword: 4700G A sword imbued with the power of water magic. Its blade is constantly wet. Sell: 590G Stats: ATK +41, MGC ATK +24

If you wish to raise the Magic Attack as well as Magic Defence of theAquasword, you can add a Plant Stem.

In RF3, a Plant Stem has the following Stats:

Plant Stem: 300G The hardy, thick stem of a plant. Has a variety of uses. Sell: 150G Stats: MGC ATK +4, MGC DEF +1

There will be a difficulty rating for each upgrade Item as well. For the PlantStem, the Difficulty rating is 19.

With a successful upgrade that adds the potency of the Plant Stem to anordinary Aquasword, you will have the following:

Aquasword: 4888G (Lv. 2) Sell: 613G ATK +41, M. ATK +28, M. DEF +1

As you can see, the Magic Attack and Magic Defence possessed by the Plant Stemwere incorporated into the upgraded Aquasword.

With the addition of a Hard Horn, Freyr further augmented the power of hisWeapon:

Hard Horn: 380G A jagged, saw-like horn. Upgrades increase chances of knockouts. Sell: 220G ATK +2, DEF +4

With this Item added, the Aquasword became:

Aquasword: 4982G (Lv. 3) Sell: 625G ATK +43, DEF +4, MGC ATK +28, MGC DEF +1

Each Upgrade raises the Level of the Weapon. Do not forget that forging likecooking requires Energy. You must pay attention to your Energy Gauges if youdo not wish to find yourself at the Apothecary!
