If what I think is right, you're talking about one of those "Merges," right?

Actually, the way I remember it, it only increases range of the tech. When you find an amplifier, you gotta find an barrier (or was it frame?) that you can "combine" into one of "Merges". (ex: Amplier of Zonde + Yellow Barrier = Zonde Merge) And it's supposed to boost that tech. There's seperate ones for Gi-tech and Ra-tech. I heard there's even ones for Support techs too.

But it sux. My sis has a Zonde Merge, and the boost isn't that great. It also provides measle protection, and you're rather better off without one.

Yeah, I forgot to mention you need the barrier to make the merge.

I think the boost is percentage based, so the one your sister has would suck if she's a low level. Those merges boost techs by a LOT.

[Sedric]

I donno... the Zonde Merge has minimum requirment of Lv. 7, and it sux as a barrier. And what kinda Force is gonna use just Zonde all day in Hard Ruins and afterwards??? If it was Gizonde Merge or Razonde Merge, it would've been better, (it would rawk in Mines) but noooooo~ it had to be a Zonde... =(

Well, she did find a Rafoie Amplifier today. And she uses Rafoie alot. Now all she needs is a Red Barrier.

[Shadeus]

i have seen weapons with it

[Scan_Man]

Well you can get a red merge that will boost foie, gi foie and ra foie.

Sure, of course.... If she ever finds one that is. =P

Is there any merge that increases ALL techs? That would be sweet....

[Rhete]

Are there any weapons/barriers that boost all simple techs? I'm hoping so that I can hunt one down with my FOnewearl =P

No, but you can have foie merge on and a ice staff dagon as weapon. That way you get 2 out of 3.

Ahh cool, thanks. One more n00bish question. What if you used an ice staff dagon and a barta merge at the same time, would there be an even bigger damage increase?

Yup! If you are going to use items that increase tech damage thats the best way to do it.

Doesn't the twinkle star amp all basic techs? Requires a star amp and a fully grinded baton or wand to create.

Not sure because I have yet to get my hands on one.

Now that I think about it, I think it is mace of adaman that boost barta not ice staff.

The 3 wands, agni,dagon and indra boost fire, ice or lightning based techs respectivly. Same thing for the 3 clubs, laconium, mace of adaman and club of zumiuran.

Twinkle star boosts all simple techs, sorcerer's cane boosts all normal techs and reduces tp cost by 10%, caduces boosts grants damage, sigh of a god boosts zonde damage and magical piece also boosts normal techs.

Also you really shouldn't use a zonde, gizonde or razonde amplifier on a yellow barrior because if you use a yellow amp on a yellow barrior you get yellow merge which boosts all lightning based attacks, same for the red barrior+amp and blue barrior+amp.

The individual merges boost more than the group merges. For example: My Rabarta Merge boosts more than a Blue Merge.

Hildebear cane boosts Foie too. It doesn't boost Foie as much as the Laconium, but it does add a slew of stats.
