Earth Emperor's Baton
Accessory3★Lifts the Attack of the Pal at your side and gives their Ground damage a large boost.
Wearing it also carries the effects Pal Attack Up Lv. 4, Pal Ground Damage Enhancement Lv. 4, which matters more than the raw numbers in the biomes that punish you for the wrong outfit.
No recipe takes it as an ingredient. Whatever you build is the finished article, so there is no reason to hoard spares.
Details

Where to Find Earth Emperor's Baton
The recipe is not on the Technology tree — it is locked behind a schematic you have to find first. The best single source is treasure chests in the Sunreach Isle at 2.4% per container, and the table below lists every tier and where each one drops.
No amount of Technology research puts this recipe in your workbench menu — the Earth Emperor's Baton Schematic has to be sitting in your inventory before the craft appears, and that schematic is chest loot with a narrow set of addresses. The best of them is the treasure chests in the Sunreach Isle, which carry it at 2.381% per grade-5 open, roughly one copy per 42 chests. The crates on the large oil rig run 0.98%, about one per 102, and the ordinary chests around the Sunreach Isle are a rounding error at 0.191% — one per 524 opens, not a farm. So the route is the Sunreach Skies cavern run, with the rig as a side stop on the way, and the plain island chests picked up only because you are walking past them anyway.
Using Earth Emperor's Baton Well
Both halves of the accessory sit at rank 4 — the attack line and the Ground amplifier are each the top tier of their passive — but they are Pal-slot only, so nothing here touches your own damage. The attack half pays out on any partner you clip it to; the Ground half is checked against the element of the move that lands, which means it does nothing on a Pal whose kit has no Ground attacks. Half an epic accessory and five Ancient Civilization Cores is a bad trade, so this belongs on a dedicated Ground attacker such as Anubis rather than on whatever happens to be your strongest partner. If your best Pal is off-element, the matching baton for its own element is the stronger item even at identical rank.
What Earth Emperor's Baton Does
Earth Emperor's Baton grants Pal Attack Up Lv. 4: Shot Attack +16.
Earth Emperor's Baton grants Pal Ground Damage Enhancement Lv. 4: Ground damage +20.
Those figures apply to the Pal out of its sphere and fighting beside you, not to your own character — the item does nothing while your team is in storage.
Schematics That Unlock Earth Emperor's Baton
Earth Emperor's Baton is not learned from the Technology tree — you need a schematic for it. One schematic grants the recipe, and they are world loot — chests, boss Pals and the late-game pools — rather than anything you research. Higher-rarity copies of the same schematic raise the quality of what you end up crafting.
Fastest route. The top-tier Earth Emperor's Baton schematic is worth hunting directly — treasure chests in the Sunreach Isle is its best source, at roughly 42 containers a copy. Schematics fuse five-to-one, so a lower tier with better odds can beat the top tier outright. Counts are containers of that source, not time.
| Schematic | Rarity | Where it comes from |
|---|---|---|
| 3★ | Sunreach Isle treasure chests, Crates on the large oil rig, Sunreach Isle chests — best 2.4% (grade 5) |
