Tales of Arise Hints on PlayStation 5 (PS5)

How to Heal your Party
There are three main ways that you can heal the health of a party member playing Tales of Arise. 

The quickest and easiest way of restoring health is by using Apple Gels. They are purchased at any store and also found in-game. 

Use Apple Gels either by using the Pausing menu or the Combat menu, providing that a party member is alive to dispense it. 

Another way for characters in your party to regain their health is to rest at campfires in the overworld. These campfires are free to use and will in time fully restore the entire party's health.

It is therefore recommended that whenever you see a campfire, to go there and use it and take advantage of it by resting there for the night. 

Tales of Arise also features a Cure Point system, which uses a Healing Arte from either the Pause menu or the Combat menu to restore health to the character that requires healing.

Don’t Sell Your Old Weapons
It is very common for players to sell their old weapons in Role Playing Games. As once they have been obsoleted, there is no point in hanging on to them. 

However, avoid doing this in Tales of Arise. This is because you will be crafting most of your weapons in this game. 

Most of the weapons are made by using other weapons, so if you don’t have either those weapons or the materials used to make those weapons on hand, you’ll be needing to backtrack for grinding if you want to make the weapon stronger.

Be Patient with Crafting Accessories
On a crafting-related note, you can craft accessories too. However, you shouldn’t get too obsessed about crafting accessories until later in the game. 

This is because accessories will become obsolete quickly, meaning that they are going to need to do a lot of crafting to keep them perfectly optimized at every point in the game. 

Also, the materials used to make them might be more effectively used by making better accessories in the future.

Get Better a Dodging
Yes, Tales of Arise is an action-packed Role Playing Game. And this means you’ll be dodging a heck of a lot, you should master this sooner rather than later. 

You can muddle through fights with normal enemies even if they aren’t very good at dodging. But you can expect struggling when you try to take on bosses without having mastered dodging.

This is because you can’t expect to stagger bosses with their combos, and this means that a well-timed dodge is your one real defensive position against devastating attacks. 

Because of that, a perfectly-timed dodge can provide multiple benefits such as being invulnerable to attacks plus better chances for a counterattack.

Keep an eye on your Strategy Menu
It is a good idea to keep a close look at the Strategy menu, which determines how the AI-controlled characters will behave under various circumstances. 

At the very least, you should adjust placement so that low-health characters will stay away from enemies rather than continue charging out of control. This will eliminate a great deal of self-destructive behavior.
