The Wyceum is a special facility built specifically to aid you in your fight with monsters afflicted with the Frenzy. You can equip special Wystones which help against frenzied monsters, or purchase Wyceum-only items.


Wystones

Wystones are items used on your weapon to quell the Frenzy in monsters. Equip Wystones at the Wyceum to bring them with you on a quest. Wystones are not part of your regular Item Pouch.

Wystones are used like Whetstones, and are applied directly to a weapon, giving it the ability to quell the Frenzy. Once the Wystone is applied to your weapon, attack a monster to quell the Frenzy for a period of time. The effective duration of a Wystone varies depending on which one you chose. After a recharge period, you can use the Wystone again.

  • Lv2 Wystones suppress the Frenzy Virus/Apex Status faster than Lv1.

    • Using two Wystones at once stacks their effects, but will not suppress the Frenzy Virus/Apex Status any faster.
