New Synthesis System: “Linkage Synthesis”
There are different trees for each recipe. That means when you make something within the same tree, you can get different effects through various branches. There’s an auto-synthesis system as well.
The “Item Rebuild” feature allows you to re-synthesize previously made items. You can also continue synthesizing on the tree of a previously crafted item.
Gathering Grounds Synthesis
The Gathering Grounds Synthesis feature allows you to create a whole field. These are made through synthesis using a bottle. By further expanding with materials, you can change its appearance and items available for gathering.
