Carbuncle

Rarity	1-star - 3-star
Role	Support, Physical Damage
Primary Stats	MP/MAG/SPR
Magicite	White
Dungeon	Carbuncle Grove

An esper which resides in Carbuncle Grove in western Olderion. It has soft, jade fur, and sparkling red gems on its cheeks. Though much smaller than other espers, the power it holds within its tiny body is more than deserving of its classification. The "ruby light" it unleashes from the gems on its cheeks creates an invisible barrier said to be able to reflect magic.

Carbuncle gains 1.5x experience when enhanced with White Magicite, White Megacite and White Supercite.

How to obtain[]

1-star Carbuncle can be obtained after you defeat him in Carbuncle Grove. To unlock the dungeon, finish the following prerequisite:

Clear Water Shrine dungeon (exploration is not required)
Talk to the man in front of the house in the middle of Town of Amore
Go to the cave north of Town of Amore for a cutscene and a battle
Enter the cave and walk straight for a cutscene with Carbuncle
Talk to the man in front of the house in the middle of Town of Amore
Leave town, and Carbuncle Grove will be unlocked

Once you have leveled him to the maximum level (30), an additional dungeon in Carbuncle Grove, Trial of the Ruby, will appear. Defeat his stronger version and Carbuncle will be upgraded to 2-star.

Once you have leveled it to Level 40, New Trial of the Ruby will appear with an even more powerful version of Carbuncle. Defeat it and Carbuncle will be upgraded to 3-star.
