Accuracy determines how likely your Kin will hit an attack
A high Accuracy gives a better chance to hit
100% Accuracy means your Kin will always hit with its attacks & skills
Alchemy is a way to obtain new items on GaiaOnline
Some equippable items and Kins can be obtained through Alchemy
Here is a list of Lake Kindred related items and Kins that you can get through Alchemy
Amulets are items you can equip to your Kin.
There are 3 type of Amulets: Square, Circle and Diamond
Each type of Amulet gives different stat boosts.
You can NOT re-roll Amulet stats / bonuses !
You can craft Rare (RED) Amulets through Alchemy ! (see Alchemy)
You can equip a maximum of 3 Amulets to a Kin.
The number & type of Amulets you can equip to a Kin depend on the available slots (or sockets) the Kin has.
Example: you can only equip a Square Amulet into a Square slot.
You can use re-roll potions to change the number of slots a Kin has.
You can use re-roll potions to change the type of slots [square, circle, diamond] a Kin has.
The best Kin can be found here (Viperex Killers)
There are multiple options to earn money:
Tree Farming for platinum (killing Sycamorte)
You need a Tree Killer Kin for this
When you hit the daily Platinum Cap switch to RIG Farming !
RIG Farming (killing Wild Kins)
You don't need a strong Kin for this. Most areas have weak Wild Kins.
Killing Wild Kins in any area can give you RIGs or Capsules as a Battle Drop, sell the RIGs or Capsules in the Marketplace or open the RIGs/Capsules and sell the content in the Marketplace.
This gives more or less an equal value as Tree farming when selling the RIGs.
Opening the RIGs can get you the few very rare items inside that are worth more but chances are low, so that's a gamble in my opinion.
Viperex Farming to get Eye of Viperex (killing Viperex)
You need a Viperex Killer Kin for this.
You only encounter a Viperex Boss about 13% of times.
The drop rate for an Eye of Viperex is quite low.
Selling/opening the Eye of Viperex is worth quite a lot but it could be that the time invested gives you less earnings than Tree Farming because you encounter Trees more often & are certain of your money.
Eye of Viperex drops are rare and therefore might not be worth pursuing.
Breeding in Lake Kindred is known as Splicing !
Damage shows how much damage a Kin can deal
In general the higher the Damage stat the more damage a Kin can deal
NOTE: the damage output still depends on the damage multiplier of the Kin's Skills ! (so don't base a Kin's damage output solely on the Damage stat ! It is not 100% reliable...
Always check the Kin's damage output by checking the Kin's Strongest Attack in the KinDex!
A Kin has 1 or more Elements
The Skills a Kin has depend on its Elements
Elements determine what type of Status Effect a Kin can inflict with its Skills
Lake Kindred does NOT use any form of Weakness & Resistance like Pokémon does
ELEMENT -- TYPE
Metal -- Confusion
Stone -- Paralyze
Wood -- Poison
Water -- Sleep
Fire -- Wither
Equips are items you can give to your Kin. These equips are known as Amulets.

WHAT IS SOULBOUND ?
Soulbound means you cannot sell or trade the item, in this case Kin.
Your Starter Kin (1st Kin you choose when starting the game) is always Soulbound
Your Kins that have Amulets equipped become Soulbound
HOW TO UNSOULBIND ?
You cannot Unsoulbind your 1st Starter Kin !
You can Unsoulbind your other Kin that have Amulets equipped to them by removing the Amulets from the Kin
NOTE:
The game is sometimes bugged making the Amulets invisible ! (but they are there)
Click on your Kin, then the Amulet slot and see if your Kin gets bonuses.
If it does get bonuses, it means it has an Amulet equipped in that slot !
Check all the slots of your Kin & remove all the Amulets to Unsoulbind your Kin !
Life shows how much damage your Kin can take before being Knocked Out
In most games Life is known as Health or HP
If your Kin has 0 Life it is Knocked Out and you lose the battle
A Kin's Radiance (gender) can be either Lunar or Solar. This Radiance is given to a new kinegg when you load up the game. You can reroll a Kin's Radiance with a Radiance Potion.
Lunar = Male Kin
Solar = Female Kin
There is no difference in stats or looks
You need 1 male + 1 female to breed/splice Kins
Magic determines how many Magic Points your Kin has
Magic Points is usually known as Mana in other games
Your Kin uses Magic Points to perform a Magic Attack or use a Skill
If your Kin has 0 Magic Points your Kin cannot use Magic Attack or Skills, only its basic attack
The Magic stat has nothing to do with a Kin's damage output !
A Platinum Cap or Gold Cap = a maximum amount of money (gold or platinum) you can earn on Gaia per day from posting in forums, playing games, etc...
When you reach the Platinum / Gold Cap, everything you do on Gaia (including all money drops in Lake Kindred) will give you 1 Platinum !

Resist determines the effectiveness of not getting negative status ailments like being poisoned, paralyzed, put to sleep, etc...
A high Resist is better to avoid being poisoned, etc...
The short answer is NO !
Lake Kindred does NOT use any form of Weakness & Resistance like Pokémon does
This means a Water Kin does NOT deal more damage to a Fire Kin
and a Fire Kin does NOT deal less damage to a Water Kin
(the same goes for other Elements)

What is Stamina ?
Stamina shows how often a Kin can battle
Every battle costs 1 stamina to start the battle (doesn't matter if you win, lose or flee)
When you lose a battle, your battling Kin loses 15% of its max Stamina (rounded up)
If your Kin has 0 Stamina, it cannot be used in battle.
How (fast) does Stamina recharge ?
Go to the My Kins Menu and put the Kin to Sleep so it regains Stamina over time !
A Sleeping Kin recharges 1 Stamina every 20 seconds (= 3 Stamina per minute)
Special Thanks to LoIina for checking the recharge rate of Stamina ! [ Topic Link ]
Status Effects or Ailments are effects a Kin can put on an enemy by using its Skills
Each Skill has its own effect, depending on the Element of the Skill
Example: Watery Grave is a Water type Skill, so it has a chance to put the enemy to sleep

Phantom Sycamorte is a recolored and stronger version of Sycamorte and can drop the Phantom Sycamorte Seed RIG
