Giving Gifts to Community NPCs
While completing side quests or fetch quests for NPCs,like the frozen rabbit meat fetch quest, can cause level ups, giving gifts to community members is a surefire way to level them up quickly. Leveling up NPCs increase the bonuses and skills that Goku receives when he is linked to a certain NPC, greatly boosting his abilities in combat. Gift giving can be a bit tricky, since it is hidden inside a few menus.
First, simply pause the game with the start or pause button. Then navigate over the community section of the menu. After players have selected the community section, find the soul emblems menu.Once inside the soul emblems menu, players can select any soul emblem they choose and select Soul Emblem Details. This will pull up a screen that will allow players to give gifts to certain NPCs.
Best Gift Options
From here, it’s up to the players discretion on what characters they want to focus on when giving gifts. Naturally, the community leaders will be very important characters to level up and give gifts to. For example, Chi-Chi is the community leader for cooking, so giving gifts to her early on may be helpful.
Additionally, certain characters will fit in better in certain communities. For example, Kami and King Yemma will naturally have a high level in the God community, so it’s best to keep them both there. That same thought process can be carried over to every community member as well. At the end of the day, there really is no set right or wrong way to level up community members.
As mentioned before,Dragon Ball Z: Kakarotfocuses on some of the biggest sagas and arcs inDragon Ballhistory. The game even features the Frieza saga, who most fans recognize asDragon Ball’s greatest villain. All in all,Kakarotlooks to be a grand celebration of all thingsDragon Ball.
