In-game description

One of four class-change items for Angela, the Arcana Book is generated by a ??? Seed planted in a Magic Pot, and only if she was promoted to Sorceress for Class 2. The item must be in the party's possession to activate the Archmage class selection in Class 3.

Alternatively, casts Explode on all enemies

Aquisition[edit]

??? Seeds in the HD remake are hard coded on pickup and cannot be changed when reloading. Two factors are recorded: party position and light vs dark. If a ??? would produce an Ash Bottle for Enchantress Charlotte as main character, it would also produce a Knight Tag for Knight Duran as main character in New Game Plus.

Class 1 is always considered light for purposes of determining which two Class 3 items can spawn. If a character is already in Class 4, then the Class 3 alignment is checked. For example, a Starlancer-Metorite Riesz counts as dark and will now grant Dragoon Bands and Gleipnirs.
