Dude where can I even get the Dragon Soul Bat??? I can’t find it
?
Hi SpaceHolm! You just need to upgrade your hero bat to rank 3 at the Romance Workshop
Can each jobs accessory be added to their page as reference? Just a suggestion.
Thanks for the suggestion. We’ll add them in the following days!
The best weapon upgrade detail is wrong, its listing cane, instead of the bat
Already updated. Thanks!
