What Are Traits?
Traits are enhancers you can add to armor to do special effects. These can range from different offensive aspects such as doing more damage to a certain enemy type, to defensive aspects such as taking less damage from a certain enemy type. Whichever one you use, you'll have a great new effect. You can find them via exploring certain areas or by completing certain Challenges in your menu. Each of these Traits has 3 different levels. Level 1 slightly increases the effect, Level 2 greatly increases the effect, and Level 3 significantly increases the effect. To apply Traits to armor, you need the following items.
- Level 1 Trait - x1 Puffskein Fur
- Level 2 Trait - x1 Diricawl Feather
- Level 3 Trait - x1 Kneazle Fur
Each of these items is unlocked when you rescue magical Beasts. Playing with them in the Vivariums will allow you to collect the items. Vivariums
