Step-by-Step
- Gather Wood — Chop trees in the Meadows.
- Gather Spirit Shards — Mine in Shard Cavern.
- Go to the Workbench.
- Craft the Familiar Whistle.
- Use it when encountering wild familiars to begin the catch process.
Best Farming Route
- For Wood: Meadows — fast and easy to gather.
- For Spirit Shards: Shard Cavern — bring a pickaxe and healing items.
- Craft multiple whistles — catching familiars may require several attempts.
Common Mistakes
- Not having enough whistles — Catching familiars is RNG-based — you may need multiple attempts. Fix: craft several whistles before attempting catches.Community-reported
- Forgetting Spirit Shards — They require a trip to Shard Cavern. Fix: farm Shards in advance.Community-reported
- Trying to catch without understanding the system — Familiar catching involves defeating the wild familiar first, then bonding. Fix: read the catch guide first.Community-reported
