Farming Salamander Scales[]

Floors 1 - 5 of the Lapis Ruins have the weakest Will o' Wisps that can drop Salamander Scales available.

The floor effect "Will-o-Wisps will appear soon" will make Will-o-Wisps appear sooner. In addition, this floor effect makes many more Will-o-Wisps spawn in than if there were no floor effect, meaning you can grind faster. It is easy to be overwhelmed by the amount of enemies using this method so be mindful when implementing it. Alternatively, you can search for a floor that has beneficial effects, such as "Adventurer's Attack Power Has Doubled" to make the job easier.

An easy strategy involves using Caillou: Spark Burst kills level 51 Will o'Wisps reliably at close range and timing Fireballs to shoot at them directly after spawning allows replenishing mana infinitely. The advantage to this tactic is that it can be easily done with low-quality equipment: I mowed down dozens of them with nothing but a Spirit Staff+15 and bought equipment. Will-o-Wisps may also drop certain mana replenishing food such as Candy or Taiyaki.

Another strategy is to use Tielle's ranged attacks. While engaging in combat, make sure to use Tielle's "Cuterage!" ability to stop them from moving and defeat each one with Charged 3+ shots as quickly as possible. Bring an ample amount of Meditation Rings and Melons, especially if Tielle has anything less than the One Shot Wonder as a weapon; you can always discard or feed them to Tielle later to free inventory.

Take caution, as Will o' Wisps gradually increase their level as the adventurer continues to stay on the floor, and thus health, defense, and damage will increase too, apparently capped at 25 levels higher than base. It is recommended to stay near the floor exit while grinding so you can escape if you become overwhelmed.

Collecting enough Salamander Scales to facilitate all three fusions will involve the downfall of hundreds of Will o' Wisps and 28 Salamander Scales, as such, do not hesitate to retreat should you find yourself in trouble.

Additional Details[]

  • Due to the varying amount of Salamander Scales required for fusion, it is recommended to save the ones you have with the highest bonuses for the Battle Suit while using the second highest for the TH Shield and the remainder for the Pandora Unit for the best bonus distribution. This because the Battle Suit only uses 3 Salamander Scales, making it much more difficult to reach the +15 maximum bonus than the other two.
