Yeah, it has happened 2 or 3 times. I have a couple of A rank weapons now.You can expand that down the sides (so it goes from 5*3 to 7*3) while waiting for that elusive piece too. But I recommend only doing such setups after finding stairs...
I think they areB rank weapons with rare, high level abilities and +2...I have seen weapon ranks go up when they become +1...
You are right, I mistook one or two families listed in the shop as rare breeds.They're not in the U.S. version. Are you EU?
Unless you meet with the play coin bug.Clock abuse is generally a bad idea but wouldn't it better to probe the past for play coins.
I understand some people like to go on a ~2500 steps route and set the clock such that it will roll onto the next day after you reach 1000 steps (so like ~23:53). It takes experimentation to work out your time...
