Tales Of The Moon Guide Extra | Quality _hot_
Since "Tales of the Moon" can refer to a few different concepts (often associated with collectible card games, indie RPGs, or specific anime-style mobile events), I have designed this "Extra Quality" Guide to cover the most critical aspects typically found in games with this title.
If you are referring to a specific game (like a private server for Tales series, a specific mobile RPG event, or the Grimm Tales of the Moon), the principles below regarding optimization and resource management will still apply.

What is "Extra Quality" in Tales of the Moon?
In Tales of the Moon, "Quality" is a hidden meta-score that dictates your endgame rewards and the difficulty of the final dungeon. Extra Quality (often abbreviated as EQ) is not a DLC or a difficulty setting—it’s a secret condition system. Since "Tales of the Moon" can refer to
Achieving Extra Quality means you have completed the main story while adhering to four concealed pillars:
- Purity: No character deaths (K.O.s) during major boss fights.
- Speed: Completing the main story within the "Lunar Cycle" (in-game timer of 20 hours).
- Discovery: Finding all 12 Moon Shrines without using the map marker.
- Sacrifice: Refusing the "Dark Oath" power-ups offered by the Shadow Court.
When you achieve EQ, the final cutscene changes, a new playable character (Selene the Firstborn) is unlocked, and the Tower of Whispers expands from 50 floors to 100. Overview — interpreted meanings
1. Animation Canceling (i-Frames)
When a character uses their Ultimate, they are invulnerable for the duration of the animation. You can use this to dodge boss wipe-mechanics.
- Strategy: Wait for the boss to charge a red circle attack. Instead of running away, trigger your support's ultimate. You will take zero damage while the animation plays.
2. Secret Ending: "The Ocean Returns"
To trigger this, after achieving EQ, go back to the very first well in the Village of Hearth. Jump down 7 times. On the 8th jump, you will enter the Womb of Origin. Defeat the Primordial Tide without using any items. The ending reveals that the moon was never real—it was a reflection on water.
Efficient farming & upgrade strategy
- Targeted farming
- Focus on the specific dungeons or bosses that drop the slot/type you need (e.g., hammer for tank, bow for ranger).
- Run group content that boosts drop rates (loot boosts, party bonuses).
- Material pooling
- Stockpile EQ upgrade materials from lower-tier content and events; upgrades consume them disproportionately.
- Convert excess common materials into higher-tier ones where possible (refining systems).
- Upgrade success optimization
- Use temporary buffs that increase success rate (blessing potions, guardian wards).
- Save guaranteed-success consumables for the final risky upgrade tiers.
- Smart gamble vs. safe-route
- If RNG costs are high, craft multiple base items and upgrade the best roll rather than repeatedly re-rolling one item.
- Use re-roll shards on mid-tier items to avoid wasting high-end materials.
- Affix management
- Prioritize key affixes (e.g., crit, attack speed, penetration) for your build—don’t chase perfect rolls on secondary stats.
- Use affix transfer items conservatively; transfer only when you have an optimal source item.
- Economy & trading
- Sell off surplus EQ mats or suboptimal EQ items to fund materials for targeted upgrades.
- Watch server market cycles—buy materials after major patches when supply spikes and prices dip.
