Although the prospect of free party healing in battles may seem excellent, players may want to save their valuable Silver Orbs for more ambitious upgrades for the [[Stardust Sword]], [[Meteorang]], or [[Apprentice's Gloves]]. The reason for this is because the amount of HP healed is 75~95, which is far too little to keep pace with the damage outputs of tougher bosses. A Sage's Stone would be extremely helpful in the early stages of the game, but Silver Orbs can only be obtained by fighting extremely powerful Legacy Bosses or purchasing them in the DQVC during certain times, and by the later portions of the game, the party will have access to the much more powerful [[Multiheal]], which will heal twice as much as the Sage's Stone without factoring in Magical Mending. Thus, players would be well advised to save their Silver Orbs, unless they are going for 100% completion on the items list. | Although the prospect of free party healing in battles may seem excellent, players may want to save their valuable Silver Orbs for more ambitious upgrades for the [[Stardust Sword]], [[Meteorang]], or [[Apprentice's Gloves]].

The sage's stone restores 100~120 HP and is the reward for completing the request of an old man in [[Gondolia]], available from the beginning of the game's third act. After speaking to the man and accepting his request, the party must travel to [[Nautica]] and transform the Luminary into a fish. From there, he must ascend as high as possible and swim to the southwestern region of the kingdom and explore the seaweed bed until a bright orange glow is found. Return this to the old man in Gondolia and claim the reward. | |||
