A righteous repellent that keeps weaker monsters away.

The essentials

“Simplest”, in this order: buy it (cheapest), pick it up, from a monster (best rate), make it, then the other sources.

Use

  • In battle: deals 12-15 damage (light) to one enemy, can be blocked
  • Outside battle: makes the party invisible: no monster spots or chases it, whatever its level (touching one still starts a battle); 5 minutes of real time, battles and menus included; only outside towns (regions, dungeons, towers, grottoes), not on the ship or the Starflight Express; it ends when entering a town
