I'd love to hear it!	Can I ask you something?	We'll just talk without any questions asked, right?
(no effect)	Okay then, let's talk!	(no effect)

I actually just passed the first test for the AR equipment inspection I took recently!

This is also the result of studying hard for the test together with you!

Congratulations! Have a nice fluffy day!	But passing the first test means...	Do you have another exam coming up soon?

That's right, to pass the AR equipment certification level 3, you have to pass the second test as well.

I'm aiming to pass the exam again this time, and I'd love to study together with you again.

That's great, isn't it? Right, my Master?

3 options
Let's work hard together	Level 3 certification is important.	Should I just aim for the second grade?
Eeeeeeeen, Master's kindness is permeating my entire body!	(no effect)	(no effect)

If the Master is about to study with me, I'm sure I'd get a perfect score this time too!

I can't say it... Even the first exam was a close call, and I couldn't bring myself to admit that I was in a big pinch...

This time, let's learn about strengthening AR equipment! This was homework last time. So, first of all, a quick review quiz! What happens if you get multiple copies of the same AR equipment?

Eh, hey, do you remember, sir? Please choose the correct answer!

3 options
The "max level" of AR equipment will increase.	The effect of "Additional Skills" is increased.	It becomes possible to level up AR equipment.

Actually, for this question, any answer is correct, but...

The maximum level of AR equipment will increase depending on the number of pieces you acquire. By the way, the amount of increase seems to vary depending on the rarity of the AR equipment. The maximum level is 100. The more you get, the more your level will increase! This maximum level also affects the effectiveness of "additional skills." The effects vary, but they're all good things! What's more, as your maximum level increases, you'll be able to strengthen your AR equipment! Now, let's get to the main topic! Let's learn how to level up together!

You can upgrade your AR equipment from the "AR Equipment List." You can strengthen your team from either the formation menu or the team formation screen! In addition, unlike the case of the master himself, strengthening AR equipment does not consume coins. Instead, you'll need special energy-filled items to improve your AR equipment. To upgrade it, you will need a material item called an "AR token." You can't get it with regular App battles. It's a bit of a rare item, but.. Apparently they can be farmed in places related to "memories of the past," and if you search for such places you'll be able to find a lot of them... or something? There is a chance to get one, so if you already have an AR token, please feel free to use it to strengthen me.

Now, I'll explain the steps to upgrade your AR equipment. When you select an AR equipment from the list, it will be selected. The AR equipment will be surrounded by a red frame. In this state, if you press the "Upgrade" button, the AR Enhancement screen will open. The numbers below the AR token indicate the number of uses/number in possession. You can increase or decrease the amount of tokens will be used by using the plus and minus buttons on the left and right. The number that appears above the AR token is the effect. The success rate of your AR equipment upgrade will increase by this amount. If it's 50%, there's a 50% chance that you'll level up! If it's 100%, you'll definitely level up by one. By inserting multiple AR tokens at once, it is possible to increase the success rate to over 100%. If it's 200%, you'll definitely get 2 levels up! ... However, there is one thing to be aware of. For example, if it says 130%... You'll definitely gain 100% of the level. For the remaining level, there is a 30% chance of increasing it. That means there's a 30% chance of gaining two levels at once, and a 70% chance of gaining just one level. If it's difficult, just remember that every 100% you get will definitely move up one level! AR tokens can be inserted in bulk, but there is a limit to the amount that can be inserted at one time.

There is a 10 level limit on the strength of AR equipment, and you cannot invest AR tokens beyond this limit.

Also, you cannot insert AR tokens in an amount that exceeds the upper limit level.

Once you have decided how many AR tokens you want to insert, press the "Upgrade" button! Now, it's time for the strengthening challenge!

Will you steadily increase your tokens by investing 100% of them, or will you try your luck with a smaller amount of tokens?

I'm so happy.

When you perform AR upgrade, there is a rare chance that a "great success" or "super success" will occur. If it's a "Great Success", you'll get a bonus of +1 level. If it's a "Super Success", you'll get a bonus of +2! However, please note that you cannot level up beyond the max level limit. Additionally, bonus points are not affected by the 10 level boundary.

This is a little difficult, so I'll explain it with an example. When going from level 10 to 20, if you get a great success, your level will rise to 21. In this case, if the "Maximum Level" is 20, even if a great success occurs, the level will be 20. You can't get over the upper level barrier... You'll have to wait until you get the same AR equipment! Chances of a "Great Success" or "Super Success" occurring increase with the number of tokens you put into strengthening!

The probability of this happening is higher when you invest 3 tokens into a strengthening item than when you invest 1.

However, since the probability of this happening is quite low, I think that even if you put in a lot of tokens, it will not happen in most cases.

Please approach this with the mindset of "If something great happens, I'm super lucky!"

Finally, I'll explain what happens when the level of your AR equipment increases. As the level of your AR equipment increases, the "permanent effects" of that equipment will increase.

Um... "Permanent effects" were covered in the previous test, right? Do you remember, Master?

3 options
Increase one's maximum HP...	Increase ATK...	The effect will last throughout the battle.

That's correct! It's an effect that comes with AR equipment and modifies the abilities of the user!

This "permanent effect" will be strengthened slightly each time you upgrade your AR equipment. Although the effect is low, the advantage of AR equipment is that it can be replaced if certain conditions are met. Team members' strengths are enhanced and their weaknesses are compensated for. Depending on how you use it, it can be used in a variety of situations.

It seems that this is the extent of the test this time.

Once you get your hands on AR equipment and AR tokens, be sure to try strengthening them!

That is, well, um...

Well, it's just something like 'memories of the past', so I wonder if there's something suspicious about the fortune-telling building or something like that...

Well, then, see you next time! Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye!
