The Gene Machine allows you to edit your pet's genes to give it various abilities.
Overview
The Gene Machine is a machine that can be purchased from Nino at Tinker's Camp, and in order to use it you need to obtain "Gene", which can be obtained with a low probability when you defeat enemies.
Genes contain memories about the monster's attributes, skills, body parts, AI, etc., and you can use the Gene Machine to incorporate them into your pet.
Genetic modification requires feat points, and generally costs more than when the player learns the feat.
For now, gene synthesis is a feature limited to pets, but according to the creator, there is a possibility that gene synthesis will be possible for PCs in the future.
Mechanism
Note: The specifications for gene engineering are currently being investigated/adjusted by the developer, so there is a possibility that the information contained here is uncertain or out of date.
Gene Insertion
The maximum number of genes that can be inserted differs for each race, and the races with fewer equipment slots tend to have more.
Each character has three slots, such as [Gene Slot A], [Gene Slot B], [Gene Slot C], etc., and you can set a gene in each slot.
If you combine genes with same effects, the effects will be combined.
Deleting Genes
You can delete individual genes you have incorporated by using recessive genes.
You can then incorporate new genes into the slots that were previously occupied by the deleted genes.
The feat points you used will be returned, but the deleted genes will be destroyed and lost.
The number of times recessive genes can be used is currently under investigation. (Is there a limit?)
Recessive genes can be dropped by monsters in the same way as normal genes, and it is also possible to craft them using two other genes.
Acquiring Unlearned Skills
When you destroy a gene that contains an unlearned skill, if the skill level has increased by 1 or more after it was embedded, the gene will be destroyed with the increased amount only, and will not return to the unlearned state.
(Example) Inserting “Eye of mind” (skill +10) into an unlearned pet
→ If you delete the gene before the skill has grown, the skill level of the skill will return to 0 = the state of not yet being acquired.
→ Delete the gene after it has grown to Eye of mind 11: Eye of mind 1 will remain, and it will continue to grow.
Time Required for Synthesis
Gene engineering takes several hundred to several thousand hours, depending on the required feat points.
You can reduce the time required for gene engineering by using the Syringe of ether solvent that you can buy from the Strange little girl in Little Garden on your pet while it is being engineered.
DNA
DNA is an item classification and is a general term for genes and brain cells.
Genes
There are three types: dominant, normal, and recessive. Dominant genes have more and rarer memories than normal. Recessive genes are used to delete memories.
Genes can be obtained at a low rate by defeating enemies. In addition, "Evolved" monsters, which wear a pink spiral aura, always drop genes when defeated. They also have a high probability of dropping a additional dominant gene.
Evolved monsters are formidable opponents as they learn abilities and magic that are not normally learned. They are generated in a neutral state, so avoid challenging them before you are confident in your skills.
In war requests, evolved monsters may appear as hostile bosses.
You can also get Mani's dominant gene from the ★Statue of Machine. The memories it contains are completely random and require only half the usual number of feat points.
Included Memories
- Attributes
- Skills
- Feats (both innate and class)
- Abilities and spells
- Equipment slots
Brain Cells
Brain cells, like genes, are DNA that can be used for Gene Engineering and are sold by a Strange little girl in Little Garden.
To trade with her, you must rescue the Little Ones.
Included Memories
- Combat AI (movement frequency, proper distance, combat style, etc.)
