How to Heal your Party

There are three ways in which you can heal the health of a party member in Tales of Arise. The quickest way of restoring it is by using Apple Gels which can be purchased at any store and also found out in the wild. Apple Gels can be used from either the Pause menu or the Combat menu, providing that a party member is alive to dispense it. Another way to for characters in your party to regain their health is to rest at campfires in the overworld. Campfires are free to use and will fully restore the entire party's health, it is therefore advised that whenever you see one you take advantage of it by resting there for the night. Tales of Arise also features a Cure Point system, which uses a Healing Arte from either the Pause menu or the Combat menu to restore health to the character that need..

All Fishing Spots and Fish Locations

In Tales of Arise there is a total of 12 Fishing Spots and 44 different types of fish. You unlock the ability to fish automatically at the end of the 3rd Realm 'Menancia' in the story. When you interact with the fishing spot, 5-6 types of fish will be available there to catch. Press Triangle/Y To be shown what the fish are and the buttons you need to press on your controller to catch them. Simply cast the lure and then press the two buttons the fish is attracted to. Keep repeating until you have caught all the fish. There is no need for a specific lure, the starter lure works fine.

The only exception is the Silver Marlin at the Hidden Wharf fishing spot, in order to get the lure for it, you must catch 40 types of fish and then talk to the fishing expert who can be found in Men..

Check The Skill Panel for Unlock Conditions

In Tales of Arise you can use the Skill Panel menu to upgrade and unlock skills for each character. At the Skill Panel menu you will be presented with different sets of skills on a grid, and it is essential in order to get useful enhancements and new Artes that will help you to progress through the game easier that you unlock them whenever possible. These sets of skills will not be unlocked naturally by leveling up characters, you have to complete a little mini-objective. In order to find out what the condition is to unlock a set of skills on the grid you need to move the cursor over the locked grids. The conditions will generally involve completing solo battle arena challenges or cooking a specific meal.

Always Save Before Optional Boss Enemies

In Tales of Arise you will have plenty of opportunities to tackle optional boss enemies, these though can be deadly if you are not adequately prepared for the encounter. Being defeated in most of these battles will usually result in you dropping straight back to the map with minimal HP, there are however some side quest bosses that will give you a game over. As you are unable to see what level the enemy is before the confrontation, it is recommended that you save your game before these encounters. Once an optional boss has been activated, you will not be able to run away from the fight.

How to Revive a Knocked Out Character

Reviving a member of your party that has been knocked out during a fight works the same way as healing them. You can get the character back up by resting them at a campfire or inn, giving them items such as Omega Elixer or a Life Bottle, or by using a Healing Arte. If you decide to use a Healing Arte it is important to remember that they use a lot of CP so make sure you have stocked up on CP-restoring Pineapple and Orange Gels to top off.

How to Collect the Recipes

In Tales of Arise there are a total of 38 Recipes to collect, some of these are automatic story unlocks while others need to be found in chests or as rewards by completing Sub-Quests. You can keep track of the Recipes you have by viewing them in the Cooking menu at any campfire. Each Recipe you cook will provide a temporary stat boost. The easiest way to get all the Recipes is to finish the story first and collect whatever Recipes you come across along the way. Then use this guide to pick off all those that you missed. The reason why this is the best way to collect the Recipes is that many of the required Sub-Quests are unavailable on your first visit to the respective areas, but after you have finished the story you will have access to everything.


Where to Find Artifacts

There are a total of 23 Artifacts in Tales of Arise and finding each of them will unlock a Cheat that you can enable at the Artifacts menu, these include things such as permanent XP Boosts, invisible to enemies, better cooking effects, and dealing and receiving double damage. The Artifacts themselves are found in specific chests, rewards from finding Owls, or completing Sub-Quests. Most Artifacts you can only get late into the game or after the story.

Explore the Maps

Each of the maps in Tales of Arise has Owls and treasure chests that contain useful items and equipment that will help you in the game. You therefore need to make sure you explore every nook and cranny in the gorgeous, dense world in order to find them. Also, when you find something of note, a specific icon will be permanently added to your map which will help you to determine where you haven't been.

Cook Food and Craft Weapons for Bonuses

Although you can always buy weapons, you will find that it is far more beneficial to craft powerful replacements for your current weapons by acquiring rare materials from chests and from completing the Sub-Quests. Another way of improving your party is cooking specific meals that can unlock new skill grid sets for certain characters. Once you have unlocked the Pharia Ranch you will find that you are able to cook plenty of different recipes.

All Owl Locations

In Tales of Arise there are a total of 38 Owls of Dahma and returning them to the secret Owl Forest will reward you with cosmetics and Artifacts. Trying to find all the Owls in not easy as plenty of them are tucked away in unsuspecting places making them hard to spot, while others don't become available until you reach the last location in the game which can take several hours to get to. It is important that you pick up the Owl (#26) located on the Mobile Fortress Gradia in the 4th realm Mahag Sarr because once you have completed the quest that takes place on it you will not be able to revisit the area. Take a look at the video below to see the locations of all the Owls.
