Tool Equipment & Slots Guide
How to Equip Tools
Equipping tools is as simple as dragging an item into a slot on your Crest menu. However, you must be seated at a bench or rest spot to do so. This means you can't switch tools at will, so you must plan ahead.
Extra Slots
You can unlock one additional slot for each tool type using Memory Lockets. These can be found across Pharloom and purchased from various vendors, including Mort, who also sells a Tool Pouch, another method for increasing tool capacity. You should also bear in mind that additional slots are locked to the current Crest and won't carry over to another.
