As you advance through the main story of Temtem, you will come across many side quests that will have you running around the Airborne Archipelago to help its citizens. One of the best items for the start of the game is a piece of equipment called the Umbrella, and it can be found by completing the Tour Guide Quest. You should really complete this quest. And now that you have found your way to this article, it will only take you a few minutes.

What is so special about the umbrella?

You ran everywhere Temtemis the first island for a few hours and I haven’t seen a single drop of rain. So why in the Airborne Archipelago would you need an umbrella? This is because even if the weather hasn’t thrown water at you, the Water-type Temtem hordes that you have to deal with will. And the umbrella is your best defense against water techniques.

The Umbrella is a piece of equipment (an item your Temtem can hold in PvE battles to grant special bonuses) that reduces damage from aquatic abilities by 20%. You can stack it with a Temtem already resistant to Water types to make it incredibly powerful. Or you can give it to a Temtem vulnerable to Water-types to help him strengthen his defenses.

Where do you get the umbrella?

The umbrella can be acquired from the tour guide’s quest in Arissola. Fortunately, you won’t really benefit from the article before this. To get the quest, you need to speak to the under-prepared and overwhelmed tour operator in central Arissola. You will see a crowd of six people gathered around looking a little lost. The tour operator is just northwest of them.

How to Complete the Tour Guide Quest

Offer to do the tour for the tour operator, then walk to the group of six nearby. You can talk to any of them to start the dialogue. Tell them you are the guide they are looking for and dazzle them with your knowledge of Arissola and Deniz.

You will be prompted for six responses. Here are the answers you need to complete the Tour Guide Quest:

• For your first prompt: any answer will do.
• The answer of the ancient poet: Pasiphae de Turquesa.
• When you talk about the red rock massif select: Thalassian cliffs
• The answer to the question about what is on the other side of the river: The town of Turquesa
• To answer the question of where to go next: Any answer will do.
• And your answer to the castle lover: Any answer will do.
• After answering all questions from tourists, return to the tour operator and collect your umbrella.

Why is the umbrella the best item for the first island of Temtem?

The hardest parts of the first island will be your battle through the Arissola Dojo, the fight against Sophia and Max ambushing you before getting into the airship. The Arissola Dojo is the Water and Wind type Dojo. Each tamer you fight in will have a Water-type Temtem with Water abilities. Sophia, the Dojo leader, will have two – one being her level 22 Oceara.

Max also has two Water-type Temtem in his lineup, and you want all the perks you can get for this fight. Being able to reduce damage against all of these attacks with the Umbrella will give one of your Temtem a huge advantage.

The last reason you want to complete the tour guide and get the umbrella is that once you beat the Arissola Dojo, you will get the surfboard. This item grants you access to the Waters of Deniz, which is teeming with Water-type Temtem. You’ll be sailing to level up in preparation for your fight against Max, and you’ll want to catch water types for the second island, Omninesia. It is full of Fire-type Temtem.
