===Skill books===
===Skill books===
When read, you will gain experience points for the skill. When given to a pet, the pet will learn the skill.
'''Specialized book'''


Currently in Beta, this is one of the few ways to teach your '''[[Elin:Ally|pet]]''' skills.
When you read a specialized book, you learn the corresponding [[Elin:Skills|'''skill''' or]] '''[[Elin:Abilities|ability]]''' and, in the case of those already learned, you gain experience.


In addition, the ★Secret Experience of Kumiromi, available from '''[[Elin:Shrines and statues|the ★Statue of the Harvest]]''', will earn the player 1 feat point, or 3 feat points for the pet.
Blessed Specialized books grant more experience, while cursed Specialized books grant less experience. Cursed Specialized books won't be read even if given to pets.


There is a limit to the number of Kumiromi's Secret Experiences that a player can read, and you can read one book for every 10 levels, or to be more precise, (total feat points - 1/10) for every book.
*At the moment, it is one of the few ways to make [[Elin:ペット|'''pets''']] learn skills.
*There are also some types of specialized books that only players can read, such as specialized books on abilities.


Please be careful when calculating, as the bonus from Kumiromi's Secret Experiences is not added to the “total feat points” at this time.
'''★Secret Experience of Kumiromi'''
 
★Secret Experience of Kumiromi earns feat points without leveling up when read.
 
*Players earn 1 point and pets earn 4 points when they read it.
*There is a limit to the number of Secret Experience of Kumiromi a player can read, up to 5, regardless of the player's level.
*Kumiromi's Secret Experience can be obtained from the '''[[Elin:Shrines and statues|★Statue Of Harvest]]''' and will be mailed to the land of the player whose '''[[Elin:Housing#Lucky Month|lucky month]]''' is visited.
* It can sometimes be found in Nefia, but the probability is extremely low.
'''★Shared Diary'''
 
Reading this to your pet increases its level by 1 (gains the Feat EXP needed for the next level-up).
 
Pets that have experienced '''[[Elin:Garden of Eternity|Blooming of Bonds]]''' gain more benefits and increase their level by 4. Read this to your cherished pet.
 
* Players can read it too, but the effect is smaller compared to pets (1/4).
* You can purchase up to 10 books per year from the Platinum Merchant.

Books are one of the categories of items in Elin.

Most are consumable items that disappear after being read a certain number of times, but books with red covers contain information about the setting of the game and can be read over and over again.

  • Books cannot be read when you are blind.

Maps

Map

The map is a consumable item, and when read it will generate a random Nefia nearby.

Maps are sold at bookstores and by NPCs on the Seeker's Keep 2F.

The danger level of the generated Nefia is random for commercially-produced maps, but for crafted maps it is a fixed value based on the materials used (and their value).

Treasure map

The treasure map shows where the treasure is buried, and if you dig in the corresponding place with a shovel, you will find a buried treasure chest.

  • In order to find treasure, you need to have the treasure map in your inventory.
  • If you only check the coordinates of the treasure and then forget the map at home or leave it in your tent, you won't be able to find the treasure chest.
  • Once you find the coordinate, do not enter the location, instead, grab a shovel and dig in the overworld tile
  • The cursed treasure map must be unscrambled before it can be read, because when read, the map crumbles into pieces and is gone before the location of the treasure is known.
  • You can move around the world map while viewing up to one treasure map.
  • The treasure map also shows the Nefia that are present when you open the map. This can be one of the clues, but if there is a Nefia update, you will need to reopen the map, otherwise there will be differences in the scenery.
  • If you have a resident with the Treasure hunt hobby and you store a treasure map in a shared storage, they will auto collect the treasure for you.

Recipes

A memo containing a crafting recipe. Reading recipes you have learned will strengthen your recipe level.

They may be found randomly in treasure chests, or specific recipes may be sold by NPCs.

There are two types of recipes: one that grants the corresponding recipe, and one that randomly grants one recipe from a specific category such as cooking or furniture.

Skill books

Specialized book

When you read a specialized book, you learn the corresponding skill or ability and, in the case of those already learned, you gain experience.

Blessed Specialized books grant more experience, while cursed Specialized books grant less experience. Cursed Specialized books won't be read even if given to pets.

  • At the moment, it is one of the few ways to make pets learn skills.
  • There are also some types of specialized books that only players can read, such as specialized books on abilities.

★Secret Experience of Kumiromi

★Secret Experience of Kumiromi earns feat points without leveling up when read.

  • Players earn 1 point and pets earn 4 points when they read it.
  • There is a limit to the number of Secret Experience of Kumiromi a player can read, up to 5, regardless of the player's level.
  • Kumiromi's Secret Experience can be obtained from the ★Statue Of Harvest and will be mailed to the land of the player whose lucky month is visited.
  • It can sometimes be found in Nefia, but the probability is extremely low.

★Shared Diary

Reading this to your pet increases its level by 1 (gains the Feat EXP needed for the next level-up).

Pets that have experienced Blooming of Bonds gain more benefits and increase their level by 4. Read this to your cherished pet.

  • Players can read it too, but the effect is smaller compared to pets (1/4).
  • You can purchase up to 10 books per year from the Platinum Merchant.
  • It can sometimes be found in Nefia, but the probability is extremely low.

Plans

Get home skills and policies. Since the acquisition of a skill is independent of each land, it must be read in the land where you want that skill or policy to be acquired.

Note that reading the same plan multiple times on land that has already acquired that skill or policy will have no effect.

Title Deeds and Licenses

Title Deeds and Licenses can be purchased from a Scrivener.

name effect remarks
★Land Deed If you read it on land that does not belong to any faction, you can acquire rights to that land. The initial price is approximately 100,000 Oren.

Each purchase doubles the price.

★Relocation Deed When read on the world map, one property owned by a player can be selected and moved to that location. The land feats that the property has do not change when it is moved.
