FATE: Reawakened – Guide for Starting Out

When loading into FATE for the first time in the Town of Grove, go to this merchant near the dungeon entrance for a fishing pole. 

Then go to this spot to fish.

Once there, its fiishin’ time! Now, pull up your favorite TV show, movie, streamer, or Youtuber and start to fish. Due to the fishing mechanic being completely RNG based, it will take some time to fish up enough items to sell for money, or for a fish that permanently changes your pet into a new creature to materialize. However, it is necessary when trying to get a strong footing at the start of the game on higher difficulties, or hardcore mode.

Now, use this money to get whatever gear fits your character build and buy one of these two potions (if available, if not, save and exit then load back in and the merchants inventory will refresh) before entering the dungeon, which is vital for surviving since both have more than one use, and different amounts of healing (displayed below).

But where is the merchant you ask? Below is the location of the merchant who supplies both the scrolls and books, as well as potions for all your adventuring needs.

Merchant:

Healing Charm:

Major Healing Charm:

Once geared up and ready to go, talk to anyone with an exclamation point (!) above their head to start a quest (max of 3) and start your adventure! Your FATE awaits, what does it hold for you?

What to look for for a quest:

As mentioned above; if one is starting out in the second games towns, here is where you will need to go for a fishing rod and fishing locations.

Typhon:

When starting out in Typhon, go to this merchant to purchase a fishing rod.

After purchasing a fishing rod, go to this location in order to fish.

Druantia:

When starting out in Druantia. head to this merchant for a fishing rod.

Upon purchasing the fishing rod, head to this location to start fishing.

After getting enough money for potions, head to these merchants to purchase potions and scrolls and books.

And there you have it as far as purchasing a fishing rod goes, as well as the fishing locations in each town and the merchants for potions and scrolls to start out strong at higher difficulties.

While this guide is not fully complete, the above information will allow you to start out at higher difficulties with a better footing to progress through the game more easily. I will add more to this guide upon request and as I progress further into the game. Thanks for taking the time to check this out, and I hope it was helpful to old and new players alike.
