So the total allies you bring into battle is 6 allies.

Echoes of Mana Beginners Guide: Tips and Tricks

Here are some of our tips in our Echoes of Mana Beginners Guide to help you, newbies, to kickstart your journey.

1. Combine your Allies

Before you start the quest, we recommend setting allies in your party, because it requires the right composition and according to the elements to issue additional power from the accumulated Combat power party, the percentage obtained according to the stars of your allies, can even reach 30%.

For example, if you have a water elemental ally then pair it with a water elemental ally as well, the same as the others. That’s very useful because when you reach a high chapter, your enemy gets stronger, and will have a hard time getting an S rating when running quests.

2. Utilise the Mega Spirit Magic efficiently

When your Mega Spirit Magic is full, we recommend saving it when you really need it, such as when fighting bosses, or fighting creatures that have a lot of them at once. Because if you use it at the wrong time, such as fighting 1 creature, it will waste the opportunity.

Because this Mega Spirit Magic has a very high amount of damage, due to the combined attacks of the three allies. To be able to use this Mega Spirit Magic, you must first use a Special Technique to fill the gauge to the full, then if it’s full, then you can use Mega Spirit Magic.

3. Understand the Mapping

If you’re on a quest that has a map, chances are the quest has a large area, and usually, if there’s a map then there’s likely to be a chest to pick up, and it contains unique things you might need. In addition to the chest, there is also The Goddess Statue which serves to restore your health points, this really helps you to be able to defeat creatures in each stage, so your allies are not easily killed.

4. Use special techniques on each Ally

If you are in battle, and your special technique gauge allies look full of bright yellow, then the allies can already use the special technique, therefore you can tap the allies for substitution and then activate it, because sometimes if you don’t do it manually, it takes a while to activate it because the special technique is very useful for activating Mega Spirit Magic.

5. Increase your Allies’ stats

To increase allies’ stats, you need a high level, it can be obtained from completing each quest. Then it can be through Memory Gems, which can be obtained from Harvest, the more stars, the better the Memory Gems. Besides that, there is also a way through the gear that you can use such as helm, armor, necklace, and others.

The next way is through the training in the quest, this method is quite effective because, you can get a mana board upgrade that is used to unlock some statistics such as strength, mana power, Health points, intelligence, etc., and for completing the quest in training, your allies will level up as you train.

6. Completing your Quests quickly
