Farming items and understanding absorbing.
So I've been playing off and on since 2020 and haven't really dove into the game till now. I've beaten world tree once and am now focusing on my favorites and raising their stats. My question in items is if I wanted to get more of a unique armor piece i.e."devil arm" is it possible to farm a dungeon for them or is it one per game? And a brief touch on absorption. when boosting my selected pal do I need to have the absorbed pals stats higher for them to have an effect(like do they need to surpass the base pal to increase it or will any happen at all)?
On the note of absorbing to make new monsters I posted a detailed Thread on how to make really powerful monsters on here already. As for the gear in question and a few other select ones, you generally can only get more of those by playing new game+ by going to the king in the starting castle of the game. There are some really powerful Race/sub type equips that you can get from the hidden Monster Trainers post game too.
There's always something more to find.....
