WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
Melding Pot in Elgado, under Qurious Melding: Cyclus after the option is unlocked.
Choose Cyclus when you have a particular skill in mind and want the melding attempt focused on it. First check your armor and decorations to identify a skill that would improve the build, then select Qurious Melding: Cyclus at the Melding Pot. The method’s current menu lists the selectable skill and required inputs; review those details before spending materials or talismans. Cyclus targets the chosen skill, but the rest of a talisman’s traits can still vary, so assess the complete result before replacing your current charm. Use the menu’s processing and collection instructions, then repeat only when the output remains worth the cost for your build.
Access to the Melding Pot and Qurious Melding: Cyclus.
A build with a specific skill gap to target.
The talismans or materials requested by the current Cyclus menu.
Check your armor skills and equipped decorations to find a skill that would meaningfully improve the build.
Open the Melding Pot’s Qurious Melding options and choose Cyclus.
Select the desired skill from the options currently shown in the menu.
Read the displayed input requirements and confirm which talismans or materials will be consumed.
Proceed only if the chosen inputs are expendable for this attempt.
Follow the pot’s instructions to complete and collect the talisman.
Inspect all of its skills and slots, then compare it with your current talisman before changing equipment.
Farming tips
Target a skill your build is missing or needs more of; avoid spending inputs to duplicate skills already covered by armor and decorations.
The selected skill is the focus, while other talisman traits still need to be evaluated on the result screen.
Repeat, collect and use
Cyclus can be repeated while it remains available and you can meet its displayed requirements. Select the skill for each attempt, process the meld, collect the talisman, and assess its full traits before spending inputs again.
Common mistakes
Choosing a skill before checking the build: review armor and decorations first.
Assuming every other talisman trait will be ideal: inspect the complete result and compare it with your current charm.
Confirming without reviewing consumed inputs: read the live requirements before each attempt.
When to stop or switch
Stop when a result fits the build’s skill needs or when the displayed inputs are better saved for another gear improvement.
