In these Levequests, there is a chance for a chest to appear that contains an Amber-encased Vilekin.

If you don’t see the chest, simply abandon the Levequest and hit it one more time.

If you don’t buy Singing Clusters using Tomestones, it will takeat least two weeksto gather enough.

For subsequent Anima Weapons, you canstock up on Singing Clustersby accepting and completing these quests at regular intervals.

Usually, people choose to doA1S or A9S, as they are the fastest with an undersized party.
