Where to Find Daedream's Necklace
Daedream's Necklace is not something you find lying around — you craft it, and the recipe is below.
This one is not in the technology tree — there is no research entry for it and no technology point to spend. The gate is the Pal Gear Workbench (level 6, 2 points), which is where the necklace is assembled once you have a Daedream registered; craft one per Daedream you intend to field.
Using Daedream's Necklace Well
What the item text calls "fights alongside you" is a free extra attacker, not a re-skinned follower. With the necklace equipped, Daedream materialises next to you and throws Dark Ball at whatever you are fighting on its own initiative, and it does this while a completely different Pal is deployed — the necklace copy does not occupy the active slot. The summoned copy is scenery as far as the enemy is concerned: it cannot be targeted or hurt, so it never goes down mid-fight and never costs you a revive. The trade is that it is also not a real Pal while it is out — no petting, no feeding, no commanding it onto a target.
The effect is per-Pal, not per-player, so it stacks. Every Daedream in your party wearing a necklace spawns at once — fill all five party slots and five of them orbit you throwing Dark Ball, on top of whatever Pal you actually sent out. Each necklace is its own craft, so a full set costs 25 Leather, 50 Fiber and 50 Paldium Fragment, all of it stock early-game supply. Because the copies are unkillable and fire without input, this is the cheapest sustained damage available before firearms: it carries alpha fights, dungeon clears and open-world travel through the early and middle game while you do nothing but aim. Breeding or catching four spare Daedream is a smaller investment than most tier-appropriate weapons.
Daedream's Necklace — Daedream's Gear
Daedream's Necklace is Daedream's own gear — no other Pal can equip it, and Daedream cannot be ridden or put to work in its geared role until you have this in your inventory.
Equipping it turns on Daedream's partner skill, Dream Chaser.
Daedream is Dark, which is what decides where it is worth taking — the gear does not change its typing, only what you can do with it.
