Effective Aether

This is a compilation of effective Aether/Awakening materials farming methods and use for Shin Megami Tensei: Liberation Dx2. Introducing Aethers and Strange Signals, materials needed for skill awakening. Hopefully the information provided will be a good reference for Aethers.

== Effective Aether Farming  ==

'''
 * Obtain from Strange Signal '''

You can get Aether most effectively by farming at Strange Signal. Strange Signal will be unlocked once Story 2-4 is cleared.

'''
 * Farming at difficulty 7 is most effective '''

Farming at difficulty 7 for Strange Signal is the most effective.

From 8 onwards, the difficulty scales quite a bit, making auto questing there tough. At 7, L Aether still drops and the enemies are not as hard as 8 onwards. It's best to aim to be strong enough to farm at level 7.

'''
 * Have Eileen as leader for farming '''

With Eileen and her skill, the item drops will increase. So when farming at Strange Signal, make sure to have Eileen set as leader.

You will obtain Eileen when you clear chapter 3.

Skills         | 	Effect

Gift Thief I	   =>    5% chance to add 1 item drop(s).

Gift Thief II	   =>  10% chance to add 1 item drop(s).

Gift Thief III	   =>   30% chance to add 1 item drop(s).

== About Strange Signal  ==

'''
 * Strange Signal schedule changes every day '''

The Signal that is open changes every day.

Saturday has Light, Dark, Neutral open, while Sunday has Neutral, Chaos, Law open. If you couldn't gather enough of these during the weekdays, then feel free to access them during the weekend.

'''
 * Use Signal Scanner to unlock all Signals '''

Using Signal Scanner will unlock all Strange Signals at the same time so you can gather Signals you need.

You can obtain Signal Scanner via missions or through the Shop.

'''
 * Difficulty affects Aether's size '''

The Aether you can obtain depends on the difficulty of the quest. The higher the difficulty, the more M and L Aethers will drop. At this point, we've managed to confirm that L only drops after stage 6.

Aether Size         | 	Difficulty

Aether S	   =>    Aether Stage1~4

Aether M	   =>  Aether Stage4~7

Aether L	   =>   Aether Stage6~10

== Obtainable via Aether Conversion  ==

At Aether Conversion in Hideout, you can exchange for other Aethers. You will need Aethers you want to exchange away and Macca.

== About Aether  ==

Aether is important for Awakening for demons. Collect the right amount and right type for the demon allows you to Awaken them, raising their stats and unlocks their Awakening skills.

'''
 * 5 Types of Aether '''

The 5 types of Aether are: Light, Dark, Neutral, Law and Chaos. Different demons need different Aethers.

'''
 * 3 Sizes of Aether '''

Aethers come in 3 different sizes: S, M and L. Large Aethers are important as they awaken very strong skills.

== About Aether Crystals  ==

It is currently unknown where and how to get Aether Crystals, but likely from events.

== Aether Usage  ==

Aethers are used in awakening skills in demons. Once the demon is awakened and its skill unlocked, its stats will increase. So aim to awaken your demons!
