Talk to Morlin.

  Morlin

This dialogue is available after choosing a sprite in the 2-3 Mission: An Eternal Bond. Morlin will also provide this information if The Lab is loaded from the Haven Garrison until the player completes the ??? mission.

When initiating the conversation:

Morlin

Greetings, PLAYERNAME. I imagine you have some questions about battle sprites. How can I assist you?

• How do sprites level up and evolve?
• Tell me about sprite skills.
• What are sprite harnesses?
• What are sprite perks?
• Nothing right now, thanks. (Ends conversation)

---

After the player has chosen at least one option:

Morlin

More questions about battle sprites? How can I assist you?

• How do sprites level up and evolve?
• Tell me about sprite skills.
• What are sprite harnesses?
• What are sprite perks?
• Nothing right now, thanks. (Ends conversation)

---

If the player chooses How do sprites level up and evolve?:

Morlin

Battle sprites level up by acquiring heat, just like your weapons and gear. They can acquire heat in two ways: absorbing it as you battle in the Clockworks and by consuming materials and synthesizing them into heat.

• Continue

Morlin

Feeding your sprite materials is the fastest way to level it up. Talk to Biscotti here in the Lab for more information on sprite feeding.

• And how does my sprite evolve?

Morlin

Your sprite will evolve as you level it up. At certain key levels your sprite will require an Evo Catalyst be fed to it in order to level up further. Once fed, your sprite will physically change its appearance! It will be interesting to see how these strange, new forms of battle sprites evolve in time.

• I have other questions. (Goes back to the beginning)
• That's it for now, thanks! (Ends conversation)

---

If the player chooses Tell me about sprite skills.:

Morlin

As a sprite levels up, they will learn new combat skills as well as gain skill points.

• Continue

Morlin

Each battle sprite will learn three skills that you can use in combat. Skills are learned automatically at certain levels as the sprite levels up. Combat skills become stronger with skill points.

• Continue

Morlin

Skill points are gained regularly as a sprite levels up. They can be applied to skills within the battle sprite interface. When applying a skill point, you must choose an augment to increase, such as the cooldown rate or overall damage.

• Continue

Morlin

And don't worry about applying skill points the 'wrong way,' since you will eventually gain enough skill points to max out all your skills!

• Continue

Morlin

Once you've applied all your skill points and achieved a very high level with your sprite, you will being to select your 'ultimate skills.' Ultimate skills are improved versions of your sprite skills .Each sprite skill has two options for an ultimate skill.

• Continue

Morlin

You may only select one ultimate skill per sprite skill so choose wisely! Also note that selecting ultimate skills will further change the appearance of your sprite. With all these options, your max level sprite is sure to look and behave differently from the rest!

• I have other questions. (Goes back to the beginning)
• That's it for now, thanks! (Ends conversation)

---

If the player chooses What are sprite harnesses?:

Morlin

All battle sprites wear a mechanical harness that aligns their skills to a damage type. Not all sprites can wear all harnesses though. For example, a drakon cannot output piercing damage. By default, you have an iron harness that any sprite can equip. If you want to branch out as you likely do with your weapons and gear, you need to purchase new harnesses.

• Where can I purchase more harnesses?

Morlin

See Riley here in the Lab to purchase new harnesses. Once purchased, a harness is automatically added to your harness list in the battle sprite interface. Additionally, any time you purchase a diret upgrade to a harness you own, it will be replaced by the superior harness.

• Continue

Morlin

Harness upgrades are definitely worth the crowns. Superior versions of each harness reduce combat skill cooldowns!

• I have other questions. (Goes back to the beginning)
• That's it for now, thanks! (Ends conversation)

---

If the player chooses What are sprite perks?:

Morlin

Battle sprites gain perks at certain levels that you can equip within the battle sprite interface. Perks provide bonuses to your stats.

• Continue

Morlin

Perks are unlocked at random. Some perks are much rarer than others and will require a sprite to level up very high to unlock them all. You can even gain perks after reaching level 100!

• I have other questions. (Goes back to the beginning)
• That's it for now, thanks! (Ends conversation)
