Coromon – Senior Researcher Achievement Guide

Gameplay loop for completing milestones to reach Research level 100 for the Achievement.

Invoering

Getting to research level 100 involves completing milestones to earn research XP. The main method for getting enough XP to reach level 100 involves a persistent gameplay loop, which is detailed in the next section.

Main Gameplay Loop

To keep it simple, there are several repeatable Milestones that you should focus on. Many of these can be done in conjunction with trying to catch every Coromon for Who’s the Hoarder Now? or catching every Potent/Perfect Coromon if you’re into that.

Opmerking: This assumes you’re doing this in the post-game, which means it’s not really feasible to rely on the Duelist milestone (defeating Battle Researchers) for XP.

Items you’ll need

Potent Scent

These increase your chance of encountering a Potent Coromon to about 1 in 30, and a Perfect Coromon to about 1 in 1,000. (For the Biologist/Zoologist/Purist/Perfectionist milestones.)

Tegen het einde van het spel, if you haven’t really used your Potent Scents, you should have about 10 of them in stock. You can always brew more in the swamp, and you’ll get them from time to time as you increase your research level. (Even at the end of this process, I still have 17 left.)

Trick Spinners

The best type of spinner for your purpose (catching Coromon on turn 1). You can buy them in several shops.

Golden Spinners

The next best spinner type if the trick spinner doesn’t work on turn 1. You can buy them in several shops.

Ber Fruit

Triggers the Snacker milestone. You can grow these (which helps with the Botanist milestone) or buy them from the fruit vendor in Darudic.

Any of the “Increase Skill Power” fruits will work, but the Berry Fruit is my favorite because it’s the easiest to proc – it just happens when you enter a fight.

Installatie

1. Get a level 99 Coromon that can one-shot anything.

2. Bind Ber Fruit to the quick-access menu.

3. Set Difficulty to ‘Easy’ so that shop items are cheaper (Spinners, Fruit).

4. Set Text Speed to ‘3x’, Always Sprint to ‘On’, and Game Speed to ‘2x’.

Relevant milestones

Lus

Thesis: Do a bunch of Battles, activate some Modules, catch Potent & Perfect Coromon, grow some Fruit, eat some Fruit… herhalen.

When it comes to the Brawler vs. Collector milestones, it probably makes more sense to focus on the Brawler because it’s faster & cheaper to defeat every wild Coromon than it is to catch them.

Herinneren: Always have a Potent Scent active.

Ideal actions to repeat (order will vary)

3. Choose an area that has Coromon for which you haven’t found the potent/perfect forms.2. Activate the STINK module on a new patch of grass (that you don’t intend to use).3. Activate the AROMA module on a new patch of grass.

4. Quick equip a Ber Fruit to your lead party member using the quick access item bind menu.

5. Find a fierce battle.

6. Defeat the Coromon, or capture it if it’s Potent/Perfect.

7. Repeat as necessary.

If you run out of turf to use modules on, you can migrate to a new area. You can also migrate when you have caught all the Potent/Perfect forms in the area.

By following this general loop, you’ll continually complete all the different milestones listed and gain a lot of XP.

Extra Tips

If you do this over the course of a few days, remember to end each session by planting and/or harvesting some berries in a few locations. Just remember where you plant them. When you return, you can harvest them.

It’s also worth doing some of the non-repeatable milestones, as they give a good amount of XP (if you haven’t already completed them through normal gameplay). Deze, voorbeeld:
