## Notes we already publish

- (use) "Nudges up" is a real number underneath: the whistle carries the third of four Dark equip tiers defined in the data (6%, 12%, 18%, 20%), so it is worth +18% Dark damage. The effect targets the Pal deployed at your side, never you — your own weapons and attacks read nothing off it, and the two units of weight are dead carry during any stretch you fight with no partner out.
- (strategy) The only Dark boost above this one is the 20% tier, and every piece that carries it is a rarity-3 accessory that bundles a second line: the Katress Ring ([[item:Accessory_Otomo_Dark_1]]) adds Neutral resistance, Lord of the Underworld's Baton ([[item:Otomo_ATDark_ElementBoost_1]]) adds partner attack, Lyleen Noct's Talisman ([[item:Otomo_DFDark_ElementBoost_1]]) adds partner defense. Two percentage points is the whole gap on the Dark half, so trading up is a decision about the second line, not about the Dark number — this whistle is not a stopgap you need to replace in a hurry.
- (location) No technology level unlocks this. The craft is gated behind the Dark Support Whistle Schematic ([[item:Blueprint_Otomo_ElementBoost_Dark_1_2]]), which sits in Grade 5 chest pools — the oil rig table and the two dark-island treasure tables — plus one fixed cache that hands over the schematic together with 25 Dog Coin. That cache is the only route that does not depend on a roll, so clear it before you start farming chests. Until the schematic is in hand, banking the Ingot, Horn, Venom Gland and Ancient Civilization Parts buys you nothing.
