Atelier Ryza Synthesis 101: How To Craft Stuff | Guides | Backlog Battle
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ต.ค. 2019
- I mentioned in my review that Atelier Ryza’s tutorials are probably one of the more confusing ones out there. To help new players (and long time players) out, I’ve made this visual guide on the basics of crafting synthesis! If you need more help, I encourage viewers to post questions and thoughts in the comments so we can all learn this together!

ADDENDUM: Hi all! I wanted to add the following pieces of information that’s been clarified since this video was made!
1) You can get more Choose Quantity by raising your alchemy level. You get one additional CQ every 10 levels.
2) Trait transference stops at the final item. You can see the Trait Category by looking up the Trait in the Table of Contents. The Trait Category determines if you can use it for the final item.
3) To Make, shown on the right side display, indicates how many of that item will be made during synthesis!
That’s all for now, but I’ll make sure to keep updating this pinned post should more updates arise! Thanks for all the feedback and comments!
This guide and addendum were incredibly helpful, well made and easy to follow. It has been ages since I played a JRPG and I have never played this series before. With all the different systems in the game I really appreciate this video saving me hours of frustration.
Thank you very much! I was hoping I could help people understand the game without having to reread the tutorials. I don’t normally make guides, but I felt this was really needed! Thanks again!
Is their away to craft multiple items at once? I seen it done but not sure how to do it.
Obsidian Voyage sadly, not in this game 🙁
Me before guide: hehe match colours
After guide: wtf have i been doing for 20 hours
They should've hired you to make in game tutorials.
Rezi Riadhi I was thinking the exact same thing when I was making this video! LOL
Seriously. This was so concise and clear. Amazing job! Thank you so much.
You explained this better than Empel ever could lol
Bro this is the greatest tutorial for any game!
No rambling. Straight to the point. Everything is simplified. And your voice is not annoying!
I agree. I really love guides that are heavily edited like this.
By that I mean, not "Let's play I'll teach you while I'm playing the game while rambling. And each videos going to last 60 minutes, and the series will have 12 episodes in total. Oh it's 40 minutes already, boy so that's how the UI in Dwarf Fortress"
"Let's Play" styled tutorials have TOO much noises, compared to this format. Straight to the point, compact, heavily edited with arrows, key points, thanks for making this!
This game is psychotically deep! You can spend so much time just synthesizing and never go anywhere or talk to any characters or battle anything although I LOVE the battle system it's so damn fun
This crafting system is very addicting! I can’t count how many hours I’ve spend just trying to perfect the items I’m making!
Even though battle feels slighty
Convoluted compared to prior games
But it has its merits
It is rare that I can watch a tutorial and understand the whole content in one go. Very well done!
Man, you *really* know how to put a tutorial together. The pacing and the recaps are excellent. Your video helped me figure out how the heck to synth so I could get through the sunken mine 😆
Thanks so much for making these videos!
You’re welcome! Glad to be of help!
Heck of a guide, you really do make things so much clearer then the game did, thank you and kudos @Backlog Battle.
This was a video born out of the desire to make sure people don't sleep on this game. I heard from many gamers who said that Atelier's tutorials weren't great, so I took it upon myself to make this to ease the pressure on how the game onboards people. But I don't see myself as a "guide maker" though! LOL
@@BacklogBattle It was very well done :).
Totally I was about to give up on the game cause I was so frustrated. Thanks for your help ... I just have one more question...So when it is recipe and is locked but you can unlock it due to getting the required elements you can then make something new?
@@BacklogBattle its pretty easy to get lost or on a certain points for hours to find materials
OMG. One of the best gaming related tutorials I've seen.
Thank you for watching! Glad to be of help!
Another suggestion is that the auto craft feature typically fuses materials in a way so that it selects a group of materials that all give one trait, such as critical+, healing, few bonus+, etc. Typically, you want to press R1 and use the High Quality auto craft feature, as long as the game isn't using any rare materials in the process (one example in particular is when the game uses natural cloth as a reagent to make natural cloth).
Don't be stingy with your materials; you'll get higher level materials before long to outpace your current quality of items anyways, so go ham!
Thanks for adding to the video! Always love it when other players post helpful tips on games people are trying to learn 😊
Thanks!
Thanks. I’m tempted to try the auto add for a while as I’m getting a bit obsessive with the alchemy system and need to move on lol. But I was worried it would basically be pointless and would ruin my experience with the game. It’s nice to hear it works well
@@jordanharrison1113 It works well overall, but it has a tendency to use rare and fused components while auto synthesizing, so keep an eye on it and make a couple changes when it gets goofy. Still saves a ton of time and headache.
I've just picked up Atelier Ryza hearing from others that it was a great game. But I was so frustrated when it came to battle and alchemy. Thankfully I stumbled upon your videos before I gave up! :)
Thank you! All of the Atelier games were on sale like 1/2 off or more last week. I bought a bunch of them. I bought Ryza 1, 2 and 3 and this helps so much! Thank you, Thank you!!
In-depth explanations of niche jrpg mechanics... YOURE doing gods work here
Thank you so much! I hope to be able to do this for any game that needs it!
Thank youuu 🙏 I just started playing the game and was honestly confused by all of the gauges and numbers.
Amazing content as always Alex! This just inspired me to finally finish my playthrough! It's honestly scary how many games you've convinced me to purchase/pick back up.
I am really late to the Party. Just ordered the Physical copy and when I do get a chance to play your videos will be the way I learn this game. Nice Job 🤙🏽🤙🏽
This video helped me so much! I was so confused and a little overwhelmed by the synthesis in the game. Thank you for posting this!
You’re welcome! I knew this was going to come in handy!
It's been said before, but your tutorial quality is incredible. I've never touched this game but after watching this I feel ready for the follow up course you're teaching
Thank you. You really helped break down a pretty complicated subject into easily-digestible chunks 👍🏻
Wow! Your guides really are the best ones I found, both the alchemy and the battle guide, thank you so much! Now I can start playing Atelier Ryza the right way knowing and understanding how alchemy works.
Thank you. This video helped out a lot, I got this game 2 weeks ago and haven't played much of it (mostly because I was playing a different game at the time). The alchemy was a little confusing to me since this is my first Atelier game as well, but your video helped answer some questions I had about it. I will definitely be coming back to this video if I forget anything since this system is a bit complex
Thanks for this guide! I was really confused with the terminologies used in the game but now I understand better. I'm really enjoying this game hence i wanna learn all about alchemy without doing auto add!! Hope to play Ryza 2 soon as well ❤
Thanks. I just started playing Ryza and this is helpful.
Thanks so much man, first atelier game and this has helped a lot.
This was exactly what I needed. Both your videos on how to craft and fight was uber helpful!
Sabbath415 glad to help! Make sure to check out the pinned post for more info!
Very easy and detailed guide! Thank you!
Maybe a battle guide next at some point? 🙏🏼
That’s already in the works! Thanks for asking and thank you for the kind words! 🙏
I really really really appreciate your recaps after covering a lot of info. You make hands down the best tutorials on TH-cam.
You're welcome!
It took me 3 times watching the video but finally get the hang of it.. thanks man
Glad it helped eventually!
I missed the "choose quantity" part and feel a lot more clear about the process now. Awesome video man and love your channel!
Glad to have helped!
This makes the game soooo much more enjoyable. I was just fumbling around before (and kind of getting it) but now it makes A LOT more sense! Tryin to get through 1 & 2 before Ryza 3 comes out! THANK YOU FOR THIS!
You’re welcome!
This was very helpful! I’m finally getting the hang of it. At first I didn’t know what the numbers at the bottom of an item meant. Now I know that it’s the potency level. Thanks! 🙏🏻
You're welcome! Glad to be of help! :D
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Really, this was surprisely useful! I thought that I was really dumb when I didn't understand most of the ingame tutorial but I think it's like you say, it's really confusing so THANK YOU VERY MUCH for this amazing video and explanation.
You're voice is super clear and the way that you explained and recap the stuff was amazing.
Thanks again! ^__^
You're welcome! Glad to be of help! :)
I really appreciate the way you've explained everything in a clear, organized, straightforward way. Your Atelier Ryza tutorial videos saved the game for me. I heard great things about this game but I nearly dropped it because I couldn't wrap my head around the various mechanics enough to enjoy it. Before giving up, I decided to look up a tutorial as a last resort. Sure enough, your tutorials are clear and easy to follow along and now I'm loving the game! Many thanks!
You’re welcome! I’m glad my videos are helping you!
Thank You for this well made Tutorial. I even learned a couple of things after playing this game for over 30 hours.
Super happy to read you learned stuff from the tutorial! I’ll aim to help people with future Atelier games too!
Im 30 hours in and still missed a couple of things, thanks for the easy to understand tutorial. Definitely earned a sub😁
Thank you so much!
Oh my god. Thank you for the detailed tutorial. Much more helpful then the actual game itself. I'm a new player and this is my first Atelier game, so I had no idea what I was doing. The tutorials in the game don't really help much, both with the initial explanation and the Help Guides. This was much more detailed, so thank you.
You're welcome! Happy to help!
Awesome tutorial, easy and explanatory content like this is awesome for keeping me busy while I wait for my physical copy to be delivered. Would be cool if you did one of these for general combat basics.
That’s what I’ll be working on for next week! Glad you found it helpful!
Thank you so much for this. Ryza is my first atelier game and was so confused with crafting.
If they could only spend more time to make sure that their tutorials aren't confusing! I'd love for them to really hone in on this!
Thanks for that!
I found it quite tedious to learn this all ingame, but your video was a huge help
You're very welcome!
Another excellent video. Short, well spoken and informative!!!
Glad you liked it!
I was not expecting this system to be this deep when I watched reviews for this game. I actually feel like an alchemist playing this with how much work is required to min max items.
There’s so much work! But it’s a good kind, one where, with the right kind of understanding and learning, you can do a ton of good with! Hope you enjoy it!
@@BacklogBattle Definitely enjoying the Alchemy and the characters. I'm just struggling to actually get their quests done. I keep getting sidetracked.
Thankfully, there’s no time limits!
@@BacklogBattle True. But thank you for this guide. This helped a ton! Here's a sub
That was incredibly helpful. Thank you so much! Excellent tutorial.
Thanks for the tutorial! Last night I was finding myself feeling super frustrated as I was trying to make things because I felt that all the menus, labels, icons, etc. were not explained well and as a new player I had no idea what I should be doing. This cleared things up quite a bit!
Thanks a lot! Always happy to help! If you need more help, just post a reply!
Exactly what I was looking for and in a concise package. Thank you.
You’re very welcome!
I never really got on with the Atelier series but ive seen so many positive reviews that i think Ryza might be the time to try again. Thanks for your videos im hoping to refer back to them again when i get the game to help me with synthesis. Its been a long time since i played an Atelier game.
As someone who’s only played one game in the series, I really think Ryza is a great direction to the series that has a huge potential for mainstream appeal! Glad you’re trying it out!
Thank you for this! I needed to find out what the alchemy system was in this one before I would buy it.
This was very helpful, thank you.
Very helpful tutorial, thanks!
Many thanks for your guides on the crafting and battle systems! I recently started the game myself, but it's pretty daunting trying to wrap my head around the systems with the wordy tutorials and all. Your guides made them so much easier to digest while cutting down on the info dump, which I truly appreciate.
You’re welcome! Will you be checking out other Atelier games after Ryza?
Probably not immediately since there are a bunch of upcoming games I've already planned to get first, haha.
If you don't mind me asking, do you have any tips or advice about traits when crafting items? There's such a huge list of them, it's hard to tell which ones are worth keeping on different items lol.
I personally don't have any preferred Traits for specific items for the very reason you mentioned! There's a ton of traits to try and, honestly, the best way to make the best items is through experimentation!
Alrighty, thanks! Been playing quite a bit more and I think I'm getting a better hang of things somewhat, haha.
I watched this and your combat 101 videos. You most certainly earned a sub and notification. Great videos and keep up the good work.
Thank you so much!
I can only say Thank you very much for uploading this, really helpful 👌
You’re welcome! I’m glad I could help! 🙏
Thank you! Excellent video!
This is quite confusing, but I believe that with some practice, and re-reviewing your video, we are going to be Master Alchemists in no time!
Excellent! Glad it's going to help you out!
I just started this game. I burst out laughing while watching your tutorial because of how much I missing. 🤦♀️ Thank you for this.
as i am a newcomer to the series, this video and your combat tutorial were tremendously helpful. they made it possible for me to actually enjoy Atelier Ryza lol. thanks a bunch, mate! great work, keep it up! :)
Thank you! Glad to have helped! Hope you check out the other videos too!
@@BacklogBattle yep, i did, and subbed! :)
a question for you, hopefully you can help me out: i am desperately trying to figure out how to transfer items from my gathering basket to the stash in Ryza's room (which says i have ~4500 empty slots) since my basket is constantly full. any idea how to do that? thx in advance!
david autin when you return from your trips, it usually asks you if you want to dump all your basket items in the container. That should work!
I almost bailed and gave up on this game because the synthesis tutorial was confusing. I think i'll give it another shot now. Thank you for the tutorial!
You're welcome! Take a peek at the pinned post as well for more info!
Very clear and useful guide!
Glad you think so!
Thanks for the very clear and concise tutorial
You are welcome!
Thank for an amazing guide.
Thanks for the content just bought it for Switch based on these videos
You’re welcome! Hope you enjoy the game!
AMAZING guide thank you so much.
You’re very welcome! Enjoy!
Wow thank you so much! Before I found your video I was like „ouch wow…how can such a cute game be so complex…i will never get it ….I am so dumb.“ now after I watched it I’m just like „okay I can do it! Great Game!“ your Tutorial should be included in the game! 😁 thank you sooo much!
You’re very welcome!
Very well done. This helped a lot.
Glad to hear it!
Damn man, that was mighty fine tutorial! You helped me a lot, thanks
You’re welcome! Glad to be of help!
Great guide. I was getting the hang of it, but this helped a lot.
No problem! Glad to be of help!
Who the hell disliked this video, It's a big help the game does a bad job at explaining the systems to new comers of the series. That being said I've been having fun with it even though I have no idea what I'm doing. The auto-pulling for the crafting has been a boon.
NOTANIMUFAILZONE thank you for the kind words and I’m glad these guides were helpful to you!
This helped so much, the alchemy system and grid is a lot to take in and honestly, not explained very well in game at all. The moment everything makes sense and it goes from this cryptic screen full of things to being actually pretty simple to understand.
I’m really glad this helped! I’ve often heard how the Atelier games’ tutorials aren’t the best, and when I finally got a chance to play Ryza, I could see why! I’m just really happy that I could help people enjoy the game more!
Thank you for this guide. So helpful
You’re very welcome!
Now that's a proper tutorial thx
Your guides are fantastic!
Thank you! Glad you like them!
Thank you soooo much!
This clarified so much for me!
You're very welcome! Check the pinned post if you still have questions! I added some more details on there!
I got this game recently however im currently to high to understand all of this 😂 will save this video and rewatch it later before playing again . fun game sofar but gotta figure this stuff out
Very helpful, thank you! ☺️
You’re welcome!
Holy Grimoly - thank you for making this - and speaking clearly... with pictures. Learning that the initial effect unlocking isn't **required**, and the definition of that weird phrase "Choose Quantity" - priceless!! Also, what that mysterious number is below the item (... you know, because it usually means quantity-you-have in every other game - but NOT this one, and they don't tell you that). This is as valuable as the explanation (from someone else) that you don't get to bring consumables in your basket anymore even if you wanted to. It baffles me how Gust can have such excellent translation quality for the script/speech... but their instruction continues to be so lacking.
I think they realized this and spent more time on these in the sequel! Either way, I’m glad to have helped!
Subscribed! This was a great guide but the games crafting is so complex I feel like I need to re watch it a few more times! Lol
Thank you so much!
very helpful thanks for the guide.
No problem! Glad to be of help!
Great guide, thank you!
Glad to be of help!
Thank you for the guide, it was very helpful! I have a suggestion though. I would watch your guide while I have the game running, and since you play the game music with your video, that meant I had the game music running twice while trying to listen to you heh. Maybe turn it down a little. Thanks again :)
Thanks for the advice! I’ll be sure to be mindful of this the next time I make guides!
Very helpful, but I wish the video had explained the four numbers on the right side of the screen, around the picture of the item, i.e. "Lv", "To Make", "A-Lv.", etc.
Edit: For what it's worth, I've learned a few things:
"Lv" is the level of the item you're making. It has to be equal or lower than your alchemy level in order to make it.
"A-Lv" is your alchemy level.
"To Make" is how many of that item will be made in one synthesis. (This isn't show for single items like Bombs, Blessing Ointment, etc.)
And the number in the lower left is the Element Value of the item you are making. This will increase/decrease depending on item quality. What this is is the number you see next to an item that represents how many nodes it will fill up in a loop. So if you are making some ingots with a "3" here, that means the resulting ingots will be worth a value of 3 for future synthesis recipes. It also shows the elements of the item here, so if the ingot has the fire symbol, it will be worth 3 fire nodes in my example.
Thank you!! This is amazing I finally get it now 😂
No problem! Hope you enjoy the game!
You are really good at making guides. Can't help but think you're some sort of teacher or professor somewhere.
Thank you! But I’m neither of those things!
This was one of the best tutorials I’ve watched. Thank you!
I’m curious if you ALWAYS use the highest quality? For example, there’s a part where your making items for your hideout... do these really need to be high quality, since it’s not really being used in combat?
Do you sell all your low quality materials?
Thanks for the question! Initially, I did sell a lot of my low quality materials. However, a new feature was added later that made me chuck my low quality items into it so I can spend them to redo my created items. That said, for things like the house, I don’t necessarily think you need to HQ those!
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your reply! Very helpful indeed.
I recently discovered your video through your Atelier postings. Watched your little intro video and just love it! New subscriber here!
Welcome aboard! Glad to have you with us 😊
gathering equipment and items for atelier quality and traits dont make difference
you only need to get good item ability if it have one like speed on boots medium\high or basket extra size
same goes in quest items
yet in some atelier game quest item quality make better reward
it hard to tell for sure but mostly quality dont matter
Wow, this is streamlined, I usually have a tough time with alchemy with this series.
I love it! Crafting is so intuitive once you get the hang of it!
I find the other games have a easier system, like Shallie. That one was simple and you could easily loop once you get near endgame.
Good job u did a lot of work
Thanks!
this is why i love synthesis in all atelier, is depth and fun , i spend hours in this (all atelier)
I think the more visual nature of synthesis will really help out newcomers. Sadly, the tutorials needed to do more heavy lifting to give players confidence to experiment and try things out.
@@BacklogBattle i know about the bad tutorial in all atelier, but i dont thinks thats bad, because you learn doing things, for example i fell in love with the series for that , in sophie there are no many tutorial for synthesis and is confusing, buy if you try and try and try and try you learn how the system work, is like how the character and you are learn about alchemist , in real life there are no full tutorial for jobs or even study, you learn in the proces , i think is the same with this series
I understand what you’re saying. However, not having proper tutorials is a serious block for anyone interested. That said, it’s why I made this video - to still allow people to enjoy the game, despite their feelings about the tutorials! If more people need me to make them, I’ll keep making them!
This was incredibly succinct. Thank you for providing such an easy to understand guide ^^
You’re welcome! Glad to be of help!
May you please please make a alchemy/crafting and skill tree guide for atelier ryza 2 when you get a chance? Your guides help so much thank you! Just starting out in atelier series and noticed there’s some differences with the new alchemy system. Thank you!
I might consider it! What would you like to see answered on it?
Reason I ask is that crafting in Ryza 2 is generally the same as in 1. The Skill Tree is pretty self/explanatory as well! Just need to explore the different nodes as they unlock!
Al fin, una explicación sencilla y sin tantos rodeos.
Fan de los juegos desde DS pero eran más fáciles y ahora no xD
Al fin podré hacer cosas buenas y no calidad mala.
Thank you for watching! I'm glad that you're able to make better quality items now thanks to my tutorial!
😍😍omg THANK YOU I NEEDED THIS
You’re welcome! Glad to be of help!
Dude, this guide you made is 100% better than the in-game tutorial. Not saying the in-game tutorial is bad, but the way you explained it step by step was clear and easy to understand. After I watched your video, I had a better idea of synthesising items.
Also is there a way you can check the quantity of an item in the Material Loop process before it is being synthesised?
Thanks a lot! As far as quantity goes, do you mean how much is made at the end?
@@BacklogBattle yes please
On the right side, there’s a number next to a label called “To Make!”
THANKYOU
Still confused on stuff and probably won't really enjoy the crafting still very much but I understood a bit more. I wish the game had a player based auction house.,..I could get behind the crafting so much more then.
Good tutorial! I'm on the fence about this game, I've been looking at video like this to decide if I should buy it or nha
Thanks for checking it out! Hope you found the answers you were looking for!
Did you bought the Game?
@@pascalspellerberg nope! I've decided I'll wait for a big sale and get it then. Too much good games release in 2020: gotta make choices! 🤑
@@Tarazed609 thats true. I hope you get a sale soon. I like tjis game and i hope many people will play it.
Thks man!
Great. Thanks for this.
You're welcome! More to come!
Thank you for this explanation, I was just doing something and I kinda did good, but not really 😂 so what do I do with the materials that have 0 potency or bad quality, sell?
Honestly I didn’t find any reason to sell items given that I didn’t use money a lot in the game! So maybe keep them?
Why only choose 3 effects at the end? When and why do you not choose to add an effect? Just messing with it at the beginning Im only having the option to pick 2 or 3 and Im wondering, why would I ever not pick all of them? Does it cap you at 3, do they detract from each other or what's the downside?
Thank you so much. I am enjoying this game so far. Have not beat it yet. However; I have a Question. I REALLY LIKE the Faerie Cloak; the one that gives you HP Regen. However; its not strong enough. I was wondering if I can carry over the HP Regan Trait (Pixie Magic something) to the New Purple Dress Armor that I just unlocked. Is that possible?
You can try and see if you can use the Faerie cloak as an ingredient for the Purple Dress and see if it works?
Thanks a lot for the super detailed and noob-friendly guide. This is my first Atelier game and I'm glad I stumbled upon your videos. You have one more subscriber :)
The only thing that I could think of to make your video even better is that you should straight up tell which button does what, for example the Table of Contents button is the minus button. It's kind of a trivial thing but some people don't see that there is a button list at the bottom of the screen haha.
By the way are you planning to do more guides on the game, and maybe some more advanced guides for mid-/late/postgame?
Thank you for your comment! For some reason I totally forgot to point out the buttons on the bottom! The reason why I left them out is because it was going to be different per platform, but I certainly could’ve pointed people to the button guide on the bottom!
I currently have two guides I’m working on: Trait transference and a basic combat guide. If people want me to make more guides for the game, I’ll certainly make them! I’ve been reading through the comments to see what people are having problems with and acting based on that!
@@BacklogBattle If you can and you find it's worth it then maybe you make a guide on how to find materials (I know we can see item locations in the guide menu but it would be cool if we know which type of item we can get from trees or rocks or flowers etc., also from which gathering tools).
Also maybe you can make a guide on team composition or how to best use each character, and also what to do in postgame. Don't know if people care about those in Atelier games, just some ideas. Anyways I'm looking forward to your future guides and videos.
I’ll definitely consider those, as they’re great ideas!
The challenge is balancing making videos about Atelier Ryza and also finding the time to play other games that are coming in for review. Given that I’m a one man crew here, there’s a delicate balance I have to maintain. 😁
Right now my focus is trying to help people learn the intricacies of the game and providing an alternative to the tutorials. Though I suspect as the days go by, there will be a demand for more late game feature tutorials!
@@BacklogBattle Hey no worries my dude. Take your time. I'm new to the game and planning to take my time enjoying the game as well
Thanks for the guide! The games explanation wasn't that good, but you made it more clear.
But i still need to watch this video a few times until i really get it ^^ A combat tutorial would also be neat.
That’s next! Hopefully gonna release it in a day or two!
Tristan Hobson they also put some tutorials in the weirdest places. I recall getting a battle tutorial while I was in Ryza’s room and I was like, “Why didn’t you just put this tutorial in battle?” lol
@@euphan123 That's the first thing I cover in my other video covering combat! :D
