In the world of RPGs, misallocating skill points can be frustrating, but Fantasy Life I: The Girl Who Steals Time has implemented a thoughtful reset system to alleviate this issue. With the ability to reassign your skill points, players can explore various builds without the fear of being locked into suboptimal choices.
While this feature is a valuable tool for experimenters and those who may have made errors in their initial allocations, players should note that utilizing the reset option does incur a cost.
Unlocking the Skill Reset Feature
Close
The option to reset skill points is not available from the outset. To access this function, players must first complete Chapter 3 of the main storyline, during which the construction of the Guild Office is introduced.
After fulfilling this requirement, you’ll encounter an NPC named Lip Flowers. These whimsical characters will allow you to reset your skill points, but it comes at a price of 10, 000 Dosh. Be prepared to manage your finances to take advantage of this feature!
Locating Lip Flowers
Players will find only two Lip Flowers throughout the game:
| Lip Flower | Location |
|---|---|
| Lyle Lips | Guild Office & Paladin’s Guild (Past) |
| Lucy Lips | Base Camp (Present) |
The first Lip Flower you’ll meet is Lyle Lips, positioned next to Auntie Anne in the Guild Office. The second, Lucy Lips, becomes available in the Base Camp once constructed in the present timeline.
Each reset costs 10, 000 Dosh and can be performed as many times as you need, provided that you have sufficient funds. It’s important to know that resetting only impacts your skill point distribution and not the Life Rank associated with your character’s abilities.
Optimal Timing for Skill Resets
The skill tree in Fantasy Life I is structured to help prevent players from making disastrous decisions too early. Since skill points must be spread across various branches to unlock advanced tiers, the opportunity for severe misallocation is limited in the game’s early stages.
However, as the game progresses, certain Life choices may warrant a reset. Specifically, gathering Lives could greatly benefit from refining skill distributions to enhance performance.
For instance, failing to invest in the Sweet Spot Search skill might hinder your resource collection efforts, making it challenging to secure Excellent drops from various materials like ores, wood, or fish.
In the mid and late game, combat-focused Lives, such as Hunters, can leverage skill resets to enhance their capabilities. If you prefer a ranged combat approach, reallocating points away from defense could allow for greater investment in offensive skills.
The flexibility of the skill reset system becomes particularly valuable when facing tougher challenges or grinding for resources. While the 10, 000 Dosh cost may appear significant at first, the ability to tailor your skills across all 14 Lives can enhance your gameplay experience. Ultimately, experimenting with different skill sets can lead to a more personalized and enjoyable adventure.
