What is the photon sphere, photon booster for?

[Venus]

Actually, I'd like to know what a lot of the photon items are for... The photon sphere, photon booster, heart key, nei's claw, berril photon, and magic water. And is the blue-black stone only for the monkey king bar?

thanks

As far as I know/am concerned, the sphere is x99 photon drops. You get 99 photon drops, get a sphere, and put it in your bank. Why? .. so you have more room for more photon drops. So if you're looking to spend a sphere, i'm sure you'd only spend it as 99 photon drop item. I assume this simply from the fact that they both have the same description. The Photon Boosters... hmm I have no clue.

Nice theory, no one has ever been able to do this, so nice, but wrong. The photon sphere will probably be a item used in a later quest to make something else perhaps.

The photon boosters are for improving certain weapons. Look in the guides, under weapons, and weapon/armor combinations.


But, if you've got 99 photon drops anyhow, perhaps you should get a photon sphere anyhow...you sure don't seem to have any trouble finding more.
