Thanks in advance~
I know that wolves will give you their fangs and hornets should give you honey.. those are the only two that I know of but the wiki should give more info I think

New Years eve is tomorrow, but I don't have the option to ask anyone on a date like I usually do on the non-competition festivals. Is it just a normal day?

Pretty much. No date. The older adults give you money though. So make sure to talk to everyone.

I tamed Hornet Queens top get honey. You can also tame Scorpions, Death Stalkers, etc. I'd say that you can look on the wikia for more information if you want to tame monsters that produce items.

I suggest taking a gander at the RF4 Monster List

Can anyone give me tips for Rune Prana? I'm just getting annoyed with it at this point and I refuse to kick the difficulty down to Easy. I'm stuck in Rune Prana 5 and my least favorite thing has popped up: Status Ailments. :x Once I get inflicted with Seal and Paralysis, my goose is cooked. So what's the best type of weapon to have for this area? I don't really use Spears or Staff weapons, but I use the other types frequently. I can take hits (unless the monsters gang up on me), but I don't seem to be dishing out the damage I should be. My current weapon line up is: Icifer, Orochi, Belzebuth, and Iron Leaf fists. Tips for the boss would also be much appreciated.

Once I'm done with Rune Prana, I swear I'm going to raze it to the ground. :evil: It's been a thorn in my side for too long and all I want to do at this point is sit around and wait for the right events to trigger so I can finally get married. The Random Number Generator in this game hates me, I'm sure of it.

I am pretty sure you can find a level 10 mediseal somewhere in RP.. and that will remove seal, poison, and paralysis from you~ I got through it by taming a monster from Sharance Maze and having him deal a ton of damage but I was on easy and it took forever to sway the monster to join me..

If you have a Talisman (I got one in a treasure chest and one from completing "A Performance Without an Audience") that reverses paralysis, poisoning, fatigue and cold. For seals, you could try stockpiling roundoff

I have the mediseal spell already but I think it's level 1. So, if I have Leon upgrade it for me, it'll heal all status ailments? I can't even step foot in the Sharance Maze; the monsters just shrug off my attacks. My level is a bit too low for that right now. I use a Silver Wolf and Green as partners usually, but I'm thinking about trying to tame some Boss monsters. I'd love to smash everything using Grimoire and the Chimera.

I got the same event and I do have a Talisman I can use. Will it prevent me from getting poisoned even in the part of Rune Prana 5 that automatically poisons you as soon as you step foot into the room? Even so, looks like I'll be juggling equipment even more than usual in the middle of a fight. What about weapons? The monsters seem like they're resistant to a lot of the weapons I'm using.

^^The talisman reverses poison, so instead of gradually taking away HP, it gradually restores it :D it's very helpful! It'll still say you're poisoned, but HP will be restored.
With paralysis, it'll say you're paralyzed, but you can still run!

That's what the Talisman does? I guess I just didn't understand the description of the item then. Huh, that is useful. Thanks for letting me know; I'll use that for sure. I'll crush those scorpions soon enough.

Also, what's the Siren's gimmick? With the Bane Dragon it was paralysis as well as vanishing and the Crystal Mammoth had that area attack that it loved to spam. Anything I should be warned about?

I THINK it is poison because her drop says something about poisoning but I rushed through it.. but poison seems to be a pretty good guess for the whole area D:

The Siren's gimmick is that she's in water. You have to run around her pool to hit her. She's also resistant to any elemental attacks, will summon monsters on occasion, and can afflict status ailments, although I can't remember which all she does.
