Especially a favorite Radio Station! の 完璧主義者 特性. Maybe not the best starter trait, but if you respec into it later after your crafting skills are maxed out you will get some impressive returns. これをする, Visit the Rewards Store and purchase the Re-Traiting Potion which costs 5,000 satisfaction points.
