Players familiar with the Tales of series should have no issue learning Tales of Arise’s weapon and accessory systems, which act as a streamlined version of previous titles’ equipment systems. Instead of managing tons of items, fans only need to keep track of simple upgrades dealing with the same upgrade components.

Bizarre Megacore Drop Locations
Once players reach the third realm of Dahna, they should begin seeing the Bizarre Megacore needed as a weapon upgrade requirement. Some players may not have any trouble crafting these weapons, as the item can be found as a rare drop as early as Cyslodia’s waterways. The most reliable way to farm Bizarre Megacores deals with having them drop from enemies. The locations and which enemies can be found and farmed are below.
Underground Waterway: Ooze Trasidila Highway: Granilem and Earthen Mass Gilanne Woodland: Forest Ropers Adan Lake: Creepzilla Aqfotle Hills: Tempestuous Mass
How to Farm Bizarre Megacore Drops in Tales of Arise
While these enemies can drop the allusive item, that doesn’t entirely guarantee that the item will drop when fans desire it to. While some enemies like the Ooze can drop the item fairly easily, others may take some time. Luckily, upon entering Trasidila Highway, players will learn about the battle chain mechanic. The system makes it that for every consecutive battle Alphen and his friends complete, the rate and amount of items that drop increases.
On top of that, Tales of Arise features an item that also helps increase item drop rates known as Happy Bottles. With players using Happy Bottles and the battle chain system in tandem, they should be able to get the item with ease. In regards to the Happy Bottle item, players looking for Bizarre Megacores should keep some handy as they enter the Mobile Fortress Gradia as a Creepzilla acts as a miniboss within it.
The fortress can’t be reaccessed after a specific story beat, so in order to gain from the fight, using a Happy Bottle before it starts could ensure a greater outcome of one dropping.
Tales of Arise is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
