Claire's Dream Machine appears whenever you open supply pods, rusted iron chests, and defeat named enemies. Read on to learn what challenges you do in Claire's Dream Machine, locations, what rewards you obtain, and more!

How to Find Claire's Dream Machine

Check the Map to See Its Location and Icon

The easiest way to check for any active Dream Machine is to open the map and find its icon. The map icon will not disappear if you move away from the area, making it easy to track it down again.

Open Supply Pods

There is a chance that Claire's Dream Machine may appear after you open supply pods all over Aesperia. These supply pods may be found in strongholds or in hard-to-reach places.

Open Rusted Iron Chests

You may also find Claire's Dream Machine when you open rusted iron chests. Unlike the supply pods, these chests do not appear in the map, so you may need to look around for a black chest with green aura in the field.

Defeat Named Enemies

Enemies with unique names may have a chance to drop Claire's Dream Machine upon defeat. Unlike supply pods and rusted iron chests, named enemies respawn so you can defeat them over and over until a dream machine appears.
