There’s practically no end to the whimsical people and creatures you’ll meet as you play throughInfinity Nikki, but one curious little group of beings are sequestered quietly away inside the Warp Spires in Miraland, waiting to give you skill insight points in exchange for some of the loot you’ve been collecting.
But the story of the Fufus is something of a sad tale, as they tell Nikki when she first arrives about how they’ve lost their home world but have found solace there in the Realm of Nourishment. Be sure to pay them a visit to level your insight!
Trade Collectibles With The Fufus For Skill Insights
When you first begin playing Infinity Nikki, you’ll find your very first Warp Spire fairly early on. These bold purple beacons act as teleporters around the world of Miraland, and you’ll unlock more of them near central locations as you progress the main story. Near your first Warp Spire in the town of Florawish, you’ll meetTokar, a human character who teaches you a bit more about Warp Spires.
Tokar will text you periodically on your Pear-Pal totell you that new realms have unlockedafter you’ve made some additional story progress.
Upon entering the Realm of Nourishment for the very first time, you’ll be introduced to thefive individual Fufusthat live here, each of them based on an emotion. Not only do each of them represent an emotion themselves, but they’re also quite keen on thefive insight skillsyou’ll be building as you fill your backpack with collectibles in Infinity Nikki.
Finishing the cutscene, during which they explain their abilities and history, Nikki is then free to begintrading collectibles to the Fufus in exchange for skill insight points. You’re likely no stranger tousing your ability outfitsto use different perks and powers to make your way through Miraland, but gaining insight this way can be a little slow-going. The Fufus offer alarge amount of insightwhen you trade them acollectible item of brown rarity or higher.
The number of insight points you receive for any given trade is decided by therarity of the item, with higher-rarity items offering far more insight points into that Fufu’s given specialty. The further you get into the game’s main story as you progress through Miraland and explore new areas further on, the rarer your collectibles are likely to be. This also seems to grow as you increase your insight, so using the Fufus is a great way to double down on how quickly you may do this.
While there’s no limit on how many items you can trade in with the Fufus, you do need tospend vital energy to trade with the Fufus, which means you won’t be able to spam-trade and level up too quickly. Explained first in the Realm of Escalation,Vital Energy is a slowly-regenerating power sourcethat Nikki uses in the various realms within the Warp Spires that allow her to access these stylist-exclusive features.
