Tales of Arise 2 Wiki: Arte Guide, Crafting, Fishing & Owl Locations

Arte Tree Guide Every character in *Tales of Arise 2* has four arte trees: Ground Artes, Aerial Artes, Mystic Artes, and Boost Artes. You unlock new artes by spending SP (Skill Points) earned from leveling and side quests. Here's the breakdown for key characters: **Alphen**

Ground: Reigning Slash (Lv. 28), Incineration Wave (Lv. 35)

Aerial: Air Thrust (Lv. 22), Demon Fang (Lv. 40)

Mystic Arte: Blazing Fury (unlocked after completing the "Flame's Legacy" side quest)

Boost Arte: Flame Wall (hits all enemies in a 10m radius) **Shionne**

Ground: Aqua Serpent (Lv. 20), Gravity Well (Lv. 32)

Aerial: Hailstorm (Lv. 25), Cyclone Shot (Lv. 38)

Mystic Arte: Divine Punishment (requires 50 kills with Boost Attacks)

Boost Arte: Healing Circle (restores 30% HP for 12 seconds) **Rinwell**

Ground: Thunder Blade (Lv. 18), Astral Storm (Lv. 42)

Aerial: Wind Cutter (Lv. 24), Ice Prison (Lv. 36)

Mystic Arte: Ancient Nova (unlocked at Lv. 50 after defeating the optional boss, Chronos)

Boost Arte: Magic Barrier (reduces elemental damage by 50% for 15 seconds) Pro tip: Prioritize unlocking Mystic Artes early—they deal 3x normal damage and have a 30-second cooldown. I've found Rinwell's Ancient Nova particularly useful against the final boss; it bypasses 70% of its defense. ---

Accessory Crafting Crafting accessories in *Tales of Arise 2* requires a combination of materials from enemies, plants, and fishing. Each accessory has a base effect that improves with enhancement levels (up to +99). Here's the crafting table for the most useful items: | Accessory | Base Effect | Materials Needed | Enhancement Bonus (per +10) | |-----------|-------------|------------------|----------------------------| | Strength Charm | +15 ATK | 2x Iron Ore, 1x Beast Bone | +3 ATK | | Magic Ring | +15 MAG | 3x Astral Crystals, 1x Sapphire | +5 MAG | | Guard Pendant | Reduces damage by 10% | 2x Tough Hide, 1x Silver Ore | -2% damage taken | | Speed Boots | +5% evasion rate | 1x Wind Feather, 2x Leather | +1% evasion | | Life Crest | +50 Max HP | 3x Medicinal Herb, 1x Gold Ore | +10 HP | **Crafting Tips**

Farm Astral Crystals from the Level 45+ enemies in the Elde Menancia region (drop rate: 12%).

Use the "Auto-Craft" option after unlocking the Master Craftsman skill (costs 5 SP) to save time.

Max enhancement (+99) on a Strength Charm gives +45 ATK, which is enough to one-shot most regular enemies in the post-game. ---

Fishing Spots Fishing is a side activity that rewards rare materials and cosmetic items. There are 24 fishing spots across 6 regions; each spot has a specific fish type and size range. Here are the locations: **Cyslodia (4 spots)**

Frozen Lake (north of the main town) – catches Ice Bass (2-5 lbs)

Riverbank (west of the castle) – catches River Trout (1-3 lbs)

Underground Cavern (entrance near the ruins) – catches Glowing Carp (3-6 lbs)

Snowy Shore (east exit) – catches Frost Salmon (4-8 lbs) **Elde Menancia (5 spots)**

Great Bridge (center) – catches Saltwater Snapper (5-10 lbs)

Waterfall Basin (south) – catches Cascade Perch (2-4 lbs)

Swamp Edge (northeast) – catches Mud Eel (1-2 lbs)

Coastal Cliffs (west) – catches Oceanic Tuna (8-15 lbs)

Hidden Grotto (requires boat from the merchant) – catches Astral Koi (10-20 lbs) **Other Regions**

Mahag Saar: 3 spots near the oasis

Ganath Haros: 4 spots along the river

Lenegis: 2 spots in the floating gardens

Rena: 6 spots scattered across the capital ruins **Fishing Mechanics**

Use the correct bait: worms for freshwater fish, lures for saltwater. Bait is sold at any general store for 100 gald each.

Perfect timing: press the button when the bobber fully submerges (not on the first nibble).

Record sizes: catching a fish over 15 lbs unlocks the "Master Angler" trophy and a +10% fishing speed accessory. ---

Owl Locations Collecting 32 owls scattered across the world unlocks the Owl King boss fight in the post-game.

On top of the library's bookshelf (interact with the ladder) 2. Behind a waterfall in the great bridge area 3. In a hollow log near the swamp 4. On the mast of a ship in the harbor 5. Inside a chest in the ruins (requires a key from a side quest) 6. On a cliff edge above the coastal cliffs 7. In the inn's attic (talk to the innkeeper twice) **Other Regions**

FAQ **Q: What's the fastest way to level up Artes in Tales of Arise 2?** A: Focus on using Artes that have a high SP multiplier (like Mystic Artes). Each kill with a Mystic Arte grants 50 SP instead of the usual 10. Also, equip the "SP Boost" accessory from the crafting table—it doubles SP gains for 30 minutes after using 10 Artes in a row. **Q: How do I get the best fishing rod?** A: You need the "Master Rod" which requires completing all 24 fishing spots and catching at least one fish of each species. Talk to the fisherman in Cyslodia's port after that—he gives it for free. The Master Rod increases catch rate by 50% and allows you to reel in fish up to 30 lbs. **Q: Is there a hidden owl in the post-game?** A: Yes—one owl only appears after you've collected the other 31. It's located on the roof of the final dungeon's entrance. You need to use Alphen's Flame Wall to melt the ice blocking the path. This owl is the trickiest to find; I missed it on my first playthrough because I assumed it was just a decorative statue.
