Tempest
Tempest is a raising-sim side mode. You take a character on as a training partner and, over a limited number of turns, build their stats and Affection toward a Fame goal. The dialogue you pick during random events matters. This guide explains the loop, then lists the recommended choice for every event.
How Tempest works
The goal
Each Chapter gives you a turn budget and a required Fame total. Hit the Fame goal within the turns to clear it. Your Affection with the partner decides the ending you unlock (a normal ending, or the 100% Affection ending).
Training and Stress
Spend turns to Train a stat (Valor, Wit, Knowledge, Patience, Insight). Training raises the stat and Fame but adds Stress. Too much Stress lowers your training success rate, so Rest (or use a Hot Spring) to bring it back down.
Random events
Between turns, the partner poses a scenario with two choices. Your pick shifts Affection and stats up or down, and some choices award a Tarot Card. The table below lists the best pick for each event.
Adventures
Adventures are the combat slice: Battle, Circus, and Clash missions with a success-rate forecast. Circus is a set of mini-games (Dagger Throwing, Piano Monkey, Ring Toss, Rope Climbing, Lion Dodging). Winning grants Fame and rewards.
Entry uses Rose Invitations; the mode shop trades in Tempest Coins. Stat names follow the official English client.
Circus mini-games
Circus adventures are a set of five skill mini-games. The forecast tells you the odds before you commit; winning grants Fame.
- Dagger ThrowingTime your throws to land the daggers on the target.
- Piano MonkeyOut-play the monkey at the piano to win the round.
- Ring TossLand the rings on the pegs for points.
- Rope ClimbingClimb the rope to the top without slipping.
- Lion DodgingDodge the charging lion to survive the act.
Tarot Cards
Certain event choices award one of 5 Tarot Cards (flagged in the answer key below). A card grants a Growth Effect that buffs the rest of your run, so it is usually worth the pick even at a small stat cost. Effects come from this pool:
- Training Success Rate Boost
- Stress Reduction Bonus during Training
- Resting Great Success Rate Boost
- Event Activation Rate Boost
- Affection Bonus
- Fame Bonus
- Valor Boost
- Wit Boost
- Knowledge Boost
- Patience Boost
- Insight Boost
- Valor / Wit / Knowledge / Patience / Insight Bonus during Training
Event answer key
Pick a character, then find the event. The recommended choice is highlighted with its stat and Affection changes. Chips are green when the change helps (or lowers Stress) and red when it hurts.
