Where to Find Light Rain Element

Dropped by Aqua Nebulas' on Bionis' Leg

Aqua Nebula is found near the Gaur Plain in the Bionis' Leg drop Light Rain Elements. However, a common problem is that Nebulae self-destruct before getting killed, and in the process, they lose all their possible drops. There are a number of ways to go around this of course.

Kill Them Before They Self-Destruct

This is the hardest of the methods to do, but it is possible to kill one before it self-destructs if you're fast and strong enough to get them as they prepare to self-destruct.

Inflict Sleep then Defeat Them

If you inflict sleep on them, they will not be able to self-destruct allowing you to defeat them and have the chance to get a dropped chest.

Use Characters with Good Ether Attacks

Nebula type enemies are weak to Ether Attacks. Using characters like Melia and Seven is a great way to defeat Nebula enemies with ease.

Defeat Them with a Chain Attack

When an Aqua Nebula is low on health, you can perform a chain attack on them. If you defeat them in one chain attack, they can die without self-destructing.

Overtrade with Satata on Bionis' Leg

You can obtain a Light Rain Element by overtrading with Satata, the Nopon inventor in the Refugee Camp..
