========
1. Intro
========
For those who don’t know, Din’s shop is right by the Northern exit in
Chesedonia. Basically you take Din certain trade items gotten from search
points (the rising circles on the world map; search points run out of items
when you examine them a few times, but as soon as you enter and exit a
town/dungeon they replenish and you can get more items from them) and
accumulate points in different categories such as swords, bows, body armor,
etc. When you have enough points you can pick an item category you want to make
something from and pay Din gald and she will have an item for you the next time
you enter her shop. The rarity of the item depends on the amount of gald you
pay, the level of the category, and how many points you have accumulated in the
category. This guide was made to help you all get exactly what you want from
Din.

================
2. Search Points
================
There are five ranks of items gotten from search points. What rank of item you
get is determined by luck, but can be greatly affected by titles (explained
in the next section).

3. Where and how to get Trade Items
===================================
Using this chart you can figure out where and how to get a specific trade item.
I tried to put them in order based on rarity. I’m going to list the items you
need to get points and where to find them in each category's section so you
guys don’t have to keep referring to this, but it might still help. The top
row tells you what title you should equip on Natalia to get the highest chance
to get the item you need (none means any other title other than the 4 described
below). The numbers are what search point the item is located at. Natalia’s
titles change the percentage of getting different ranked items to 80% so if
utilized properly you will almost always get what you want when examining
search points. If you don’t have most of these titles I suggest you get them
before attempting to make a lot of stuff at Din’s. It will make things much
easier on you. I’ll briefly explain how to get them.

Curious Princess – (80% chance of getting rank 2 items) Make at least 5 items
from Din’s shop and find search points 1-6, then enter Din’s with Natalia as
the on-screen character.

Star of Malkuth – (80% chance of getting rank 3 items) Talk to the kid dressed
like a cow in Nam Cobanda Island and complete the sidequest.

Labyrinth Princess – (80% chance of getting rank 4 items) If you give the man
on the right side of Keterburg’s hotel 200,000 gald you will be able to play
his labyrinth mini-game. Complete it with Natalia to get the title.

Adventurous Princess – (80% chance of getting rank 5 items)Find all 29 search
points (look at Cyllya’s world map if you need help locating them all; only
the first 18 search points give you trade items and those are the only ones
that appear on the world map search point list in the game). Then equip the
Curious Princess title and talk to Din as Natalia, you should get the costume.

Every item, in all the guides I’ve looked at, is also given a rank (the letter
followed by the number). I’m not entirely sure what it means or how to apply
it, and I have been trying to figure it out for a while now. It doesn’t seem
to be terribly important at least. I’m fairly certain it relates to leveling
up categories since C items are used to go from lv1-lv2, B items are used to
go from lv2-lv3, and A items are used to go from lv3-lv4. I still don’t know
what the numbers mean though, so if anyone knows please email me so I can add
an explanation. I still included it in the chart for anyone who does know
what it means. Anyway, I do know the items without ranks don’t give points to
any category and are essentially worthless. Din just gives you 20 gald for
each one you bring in, which, obviously, is a pathetic amount of gald.

===========================
4. Point System Explanation
===========================
I’m going to explain this to the best of my ability. My understanding is based
off my experience and what I’ve read so it may not be perfectly accurate. If
you see something wrong with this explanation please email me and tell me.

When you bring trade items to Din depending on what items you give you will
get points for specific categories. For example, if you brought Din 1 iron ore
you would get 1 point in the sword, spear, and body armor section. When you
accumulate enough points for the first level of a category the option to
order from that category will appear under the 'make an order' menu. When you
make an order from Din it costs you points. It is very important to note that
each category’s points are independent of the other categories. So if you
make a sword your points won’t get deducted from bows, staffs, or any other
category, only from the sword category. Also note that you don’t lose ALL
your points when you make something, the amount of points you lose depends
on the consumption points of the item. Lower class items cost only a small
amount of points while Special Request items tend to cost much more. Spending
points also decreases the category’s level (levels are explained in more
detail under the “chart explanations” section), so unless you have a ton of
points built up you’ll have to go out and search for items again to increase
the level back up when you want to make something else. So if you’re going
for a special request, make sure not to make anything else in that category,
otherwise it’ll take longer for the special request option to open. There's
no way to know how many points you have in a category, but it's not really
that important. If you're focusing on one category and bringing Din all the
items that give points to that category, you'll have enough points to get
what you want within a few trips, with the exception of the herb category
which requires quite a bit more points than the others. Every item's
consumption point value is listed in its category.

==============================
5. How much gald do I pay Din?
==============================
You’ll get different class items depending on the amount of money you pay
Din. The level affects how much Din asks you for and what type of items you
can get. Levels are independent for each different category and rise based
on the number of points accumulated in each section and by giving Din certain
trade items (the items and points for leveling up will be shown in each
category’s section). The chart below shows exactly what and how many of each
class item you’ll get depending on what you pay. So Class 1x3 means you’ll
receive 3 class 1 items. The chart below that shows what prices Din asks for
in each level. As you can see certain items like weapons have different
pricings than other items like armor. If you want to know what class a
certain sword/bow/etc is, then look in that item’s section. If there’s more
than one item in a class then the item you receive from Din is random, unless
you don’t have enough points for the higher point item, in which case you’d
get the item worth the lowest points. So if you’re not sure what item you’ll
get it helps to save before ordering and just load up again if you didn’t get
what you wanted.

Now I’m going to go into each category and tell you what you can make, what
class all the items are, what items are needed for leveling up, and what trade
items give points in each category. I’m going to include notation for where to
find the trade items so you guys don’t have to keep referring to the chart.

==================
Chart Explanations
==================
So if I list Highland Ruby (SP13 AP) it means you can find Highland Rubies at
Search Point 13 with the Adventurous Princess title equipped. Keep in mind
some items can be found in more than one place, and other items sometimes come
from the same search point so I suggest you alternate which one you get every
other trip. The first chart under each category shows what class different
items are, what you can make in each category, what the item does, how many
points it consumes when it’s made, and the item required to give Din when
asking for a Special Request. Also, for those completing the collector’s
book, in each category’s section I will tell you whether the items you can
make are exclusive to Din’s or not.

The second chart shows how to increase each category’s level (remember levels
affect the prices Din asks of you and that affects how good an item you’ll
get). To level up a category you must bring Din certain trade items as well
as accumulate a certain number of points (some lower levels and special
request don’t require certain “level up” items, just so long as you have the
points). I’m going to use the gel category as an example. To get the gel
option to even appear you need to get 5 points in the gel category. Once it’s
at level 1 to get to level 2 you must get at least 25 points and bring Din
one Coral, Basilisk Scale, Holy Water, Glowing Moss, or Giant Shell (this
does not mean one of all of the items, just one of any of them). If
you never bring in any of those items the gel category will remain level 1
no matter how many points you have. The process continues like that for the
successive levels. It is important to note that you must bring in the required
“level up” items only after unlocking the level before. So bringing Din a
Phantom Vegetable or Meteorite Fragment (required items to unlock gel lv4)
while the gel category is only lv2 will not help you; you’ll still need to
bring in another Phantom Vegetable or Meteorite Fragment when you get to
level 3. This means that the special request option will not unlock until you
get the category to level 4. Oh, and some categories don’t start at level 1;
sometimes they start at lv2 or lv3, but this doesn’t affect the system, only
that those categories require more points to unlock. Now that your brains are
probably exploding with information, I’m going to tell you that it’s not
entirely necessary to pay attention to the level up chart. All the “level up”
items are also items that give points to the category so as long as you are
going around and getting all/most of the items each trip the levels should
unlock with no problem and the special request option/highest level should
appear within 2-3 trips.

When searching for trade items and trying to make stuff at Din’s, I suggest
you focus on one category at a time (that’s what this guide is most easily
used for). The easiest way to do it is to just go through the list of items
at the top of each category’s section and collect them and then give the items
to Din and if whatever level you need isn’t unlocked go through the list again.
Since you can only get a few items from search points each time you examine
them and some items are obtained from the same search point it can get a
little overwhelming trying to get points in more than one category at once
(although you still will be even if you’re focusing on one category because
the items give points to multiple categories at the same time).

===============
Special Request
===============
If you get enough points in any particular category (the amount varies) and
get the category to level 4, a special request option will appear in the menu
when you talk to Din. These items are the best in the categories, and making
them works a bit differently. They still require you to spend points, but
you’ll know exactly what it is you’re ordering and it doesn’t cost you any
money. Instead Din will ask you for a specific trade item when you place the
order (the item needed is listed in the first chart in each category), and if
you have one in your stock she’ll ask if you want to trade it for the item.
The Special Request Item is always one that already gives points to a category
so you can look at the list of items at the top of each category's section for
where to find it. Don’t forget that if you’re trying to get the special
request option to show up you don’t want to be making anything else in that
category, otherwise you’ll be spending points and it’ll take longer to show up.
Also, a few categories don’t have any special request items at all.

The Queen Cloak is exclusive to Din’s Shop and is Anise’s best armor. Jade’s
best armor isn’t the Viridian Robe (which can be bought in Chesedonia’s armor
shop by the way); it’s the Fonic Robe (Def+68 F. Def+68) which can be found
in the final dungeon.

None of the best bracelets and gloves can be made in Din’s Shop unless you
like the elemental bonuses (those gloves can be bought in shops elsewhere).
The best gloves are the queen gloves (def+42) which can be bought in
Chesedonia’s Armor Shop, and the Fonic Gloves (Def+45) which can be found in
the final dungeon (meaning you only get 1). The best bracelet is the Kaiser
Bracelet (Def+45) which is found in the secret dungeon (the Replica Factory).
