Four Elements Trainer Walkthrough & Guide – Books 1, 2 & 3

Download Game: https://gamecax.com/game/four-elements-trainer/

This Four Elements Trainer walkthrough covers the documented progression and game mechanics for Book 1: Water, Book 2: Fire and the Obsidian locations in Book 3. It includes route information, money-making strategies, training requirements, combat, important stats, tavern recipes, farm mechanics and common progression problems.

This guide is structured from the walkthrough resources maintained by Maid Lain. The source provides detailed Love and Slave route resources for the first two Books, while its Book 3 documentation is specifically focused on finding Obsidian rather than providing a complete Book 3 route walkthrough.

If you need the game before following the guide, visit the Four Elements Trainer download page on GameCax.

Important: The Maid Lain repository used as the primary source for this guide does not contain a complete Book 4 walkthrough. For that reason, this page does not invent or merge an unrelated Book 4 route into the source-based walkthrough.

Book 1 revolves around Katara and introduces systems such as Waterbending, Affection, Respect, hunting, mining and the Marketplace.

The source separates Book 1 into Love Route and Slave Route walkthroughs, with additional Scene and Quest guides. Before focusing on an individual route, understanding the underlying mechanics will make progression considerably faster.

One of the most useful early objectives is completing the side quest that expands the Marketplace shop.

After completing Expanding the Shop, you automatically receive approximately 20–40 coins at the beginning of each day.

Because this reduces the amount of money grinding required later, it is worth progressing this side quest early.

Use the Shop at Night

If you only need to purchase something, visiting the shop at night is more time-efficient.

Leaving the shop after a daytime visit advances time to night, while leaving after a nighttime visit does not automatically advance the game to the next day.

The source also notes that donating 50 coins to the shop does not provide a useful gameplay benefit.

The Elder Council becomes accessible after visiting Katara’s house during the day for the first time.

When dealing with the Elder Council:

• Endorsing Katara gives +1 Respect.

If a route or quest requires additional Respect, this is one of the documented ways to increase it.

Regular training increases Waterbending by:

+2 Waterbending per training session

Waterbending itself does not directly change the difficulty of the hunting encounter. However, your attack damage improves after certain progression milestones.

Documented damage milestones include:

• Completing Suit Up
• Reaching 21 Waterbending
• Reaching 27 Waterbending
• Completing the training stage associated with Spirit Bomb

Hunting is useful for relationship progression with Katara because each successful hunting session provides:

+1 Affection

If Katara is angry, hunting also reduces her anger by one level.

How Much Affection Do You Need?

The Maid Lain walkthrough notes that the documented progression does not require more than approximately:

17 / 30 Affection

Therefore, grinding Affection significantly beyond 17 is generally unnecessary for the documented route requirements.

How to Win Hunting Battles

Use the following decision order during the mooselion fight:

1. If your HP drops below approximately 20%, use a Healing Potion.
2. If the mooselion moved its head during the previous turn without attacking, Defend.
3. Otherwise, Attack.

Carry at least two Healing Potions for a typical hunting trip. A particularly unlucky encounter can require a third.

You can also use Ren’Py’s skip function to speed up repetitive hunting dialogue.

The Mine provides another way to earn money and is also used by several side quests.

The documented average value of one mining trip is approximately 50 coins.

Ren’Py Rollback Mining Trick

The stone rarity is determined after confirming that you want to mine.

This means players using Ren’Py rollback can potentially return to the decision point and retry the mining result.

Mountain

You generally only need to visit the Mountain when story progression explicitly sends you there. The source does not document another repeatable purpose for the location.

School

The School is primarily used for specific quests and character scenes.

When choosing between simply sleeping and checking your mail, checking the mail is normally the more useful option.

Both actions advance the game to the following day, but checking mail also provides approximately:

20–40 coins

There are multiple possible letters, but collecting every variation does not provide a documented progression reward.

The Marketplace alley contains an optional random event.

The Maid Lain guide documents approximately a 40% chance for its special scene to appear when visiting the alley.

The source does not identify a hidden quest or secret progression requirement associated with repeatedly visiting the alley.

The Maid Lain walkthrough maintains separate walkthroughs for the Book 1 Love Route and Slave Route.

This distinction is important because route-specific choices, scenes and quest progression should not be treated as a single linear sequence.

If you are trying to unlock route-specific content, keep separate saves before major branching decisions rather than overwriting your only save.

• Work on Expanding the Shop early for passive daily income.
• Use the Marketplace shop at night when possible.
• Use hunting when you need Katara Affection.
• Do not unnecessarily grind Affection far beyond 17 for the documented progression.
• Carry at least two Healing Potions while hunting.
• Train Waterbending while progressing the main quests.
• Check mail instead of simply sleeping when you want extra coins.
• Use mining when additional money is required.

Book 2 shifts progression toward Azula and introduces Firebending training, larger combat systems, tactics, the Tavern, equipment and Farm management.

Like Book 1, the source separates Book 2 into Love Route and Slave Route progression rather than treating every event as part of one route.

The Tavern is an important source of money. Memorizing the recipes is particularly useful because consulting the recipe book during a serving shift reduces the tip you receive.

How Much Money Does Bartending Give?

After the introductory shifts, a correct drink can provide a 45-coin tip.

With three tips per shift, this gives approximately:

135 coins per bartending shift

The first four drink-serving shifts pay less before your promotion.

Should You Gamble Against Ty Lee?

The source considers blackjack against Ty Lee an inefficient way to make money compared with other available activities.

If your objective is simply earning coins efficiently, bartending is the better documented option.

Training increases your Firebending level, which increases battle damage.

If training stops advancing, check these requirements before assuming that additional grinding is needed.

Azula’s Room

Azula’s room is used repeatedly for character events, scenes and quest progression.

Throne Room

The Throne Room is accessible during the day and contains Azula’s throne-room events.

Tactics progression takes place at the Tower.

Tactics Level 2 is particularly important because it is required for Firebending Level 7.

Winning an outside battle provides approximately 30–50 coins.

The combat system uses a simple counter relationship:

Think of the system as a three-way counter:

Infantry → Tank → Cavalry → Infantry

The Armory sells armor, troops and health upgrades.

Buying armor automatically applies its health bonus, but only one armor set can be equipped at a time.

Because earlier armor does not provide a useful cumulative bonus after upgrading, the Maid Lain strategy recommends saving money for stronger equipment rather than buying every armor tier.

With careful early spending, it is possible to obtain the Dragon Armor relatively early.

The Armory also becomes relevant to Mai’s events at night.

The Farm contains a separate management loop involving fresh, used and pregnant girls. It can provide additional money if managed efficiently.

How to Get More Farm Girls

After unlocking the Farm, winning a battle gives approximately a 50% chance of adding a fresh girl.

Used girls can also be purchased for 250 coins, but the source considers this poor value because battles can provide new girls without that direct purchase cost.

Pregnancy Timer

A pregnant farm girl requires approximately:

20 days

before giving birth. Afterwards, she becomes a used girl.

Azula’s Farm Visits

Azula visits approximately once every 7 days to provide payment.

Farm Payments

• Milking: 5 coins per unit
• Birth: 10 coins

The source recommends manually managing the Farm instead of relying entirely on the automatic lever.

A simplified routine is:

1. Visit the Farm every night.
2. Milk used girls.
3. Progress eligible non-pregnant girls.
4. For pregnant girls, use the higher-yield milking sequence.
5. Leave the Farm and continue normal progression.

The reason for manual management is that the automatic lever only calculates milk from used and pregnant girls once, while the documented manual routine can produce a higher total yield.

The source specifically notes that Morality is not used by the Book 2 Love Route.

Therefore, players following that route do not need to grind Morality simply because the stat exists.

• Memorize or reference the Tavern drink combinations outside the in-game recipe book.
• Use bartending rather than blackjack when your objective is efficient money.
• Complete six battles before expecting Firebending Level 6 progression.
• Raise Tactics to Level 2 for Firebending Level 7.
• Remember the Infantry/Tank/Cavalry counter system.
• Avoid purchasing every armor tier if saving for stronger equipment is practical.
• Visit the Farm consistently if using its economy.
• Keep Love and Slave route saves separate.

The Maid Lain repository does not provide a complete Book 3 walkthrough in the same form as Books 1 and 2. Its documented Book 3 resource specifically focuses on Obsidian locations.

There are also two important progression warnings in the source.

Book 3 Progression Warning

The Obsidian guide was written around a version where the game needed to be at least v0.6.13e for all documented Obsidian pieces to be obtainable.

More importantly:

Fully upgrade the Tavern before completing all Hospital upgrades.

In the documented version, completing the Hospital progression too early could prevent the player from accepting Quest 7, which is connected to an Obsidian reward.

Two documented pieces are obtained through Tavern quests:

• One from completing Quest 3: Firebender Attack.
• One from completing Quest 7: A Peck of Knowledge.

Several more Obsidian pieces are found inside the Maze.

Skye

Skye gives you one piece when you meet her in the Maze.

Maze Chest

From the entrance, follow:

Up → Up → Right → Right

Defeat the enemy that appears and open the chest.

Wooden Crate

Another piece is obtained during the first relevant interaction with the wooden crate used as a hiding place.

Skull

The skull located in one of the Maze corners contains:

2 Obsidian

Headless Statue

The final documented Maze interaction involving the headless statue provides:

2 Obsidian

Total documented Obsidian: 9

Before assuming that progression is broken, check the system associated with your current Book.

Book 1

• Check Waterbending.
• Check Katara’s Affection.
• Check Respect.
• Make sure you are visiting locations at the correct time of day.
• Check whether a side quest must be completed first.

Book 2

• Check the number of battles completed.
• Check Firebending.
• Check Tactics.
• Check whether Ember Island progression is required.
• Visit Azula’s room and the Palace when appropriate.

Book 3

• Check whether the Tavern has been fully upgraded.
• Make sure Quest 7 remains available.
• Recheck every documented Maze Obsidian source.

The walkthrough source explicitly maintains separate Love Route and Slave Route resources for Books 1 and 2.

Because the routes contain different choices and progression, the safest strategy is to create a separate save before committing to major route decisions.

This also makes it easier to return later and view route-specific scenes without replaying the entire Book from the beginning.

Four Elements Trainer contains multiple Books, route splits and stat-dependent events. A simple save structure prevents unnecessary replaying:

1. Create a permanent save near the beginning of each Book.
2. Create another save before choosing between Love and Slave progression.
3. Use rotating saves while completing quests.
4. Keep a separate save before major upgrades or progression points in Book 3.

The most efficient way to play Four Elements Trainer is to understand the mechanics of each Book instead of repeatedly grinding every visible stat.

In Book 1: Water, prioritize the shop expansion for passive income, use hunting for Katara’s Affection, train Waterbending as required and use the Mine when additional money is needed. The documented route does not require endlessly maximizing Affection.

In Book 2: Fire, Tavern work is an efficient source of money, Firebending progression is tied to battles and Tactics, and combat follows the Infantry–Tank–Cavalry counter system. Farm management can provide additional income, but manual management is more efficient than relying only on the lever.

For Book 3, the supplied walkthrough source is specifically an Obsidian guide rather than a complete story walkthrough. The most important warning is to fully upgrade the Tavern before finishing all Hospital upgrades so that the documented Quest 7 progression remains available.

If you become stuck, identify the Book and route you are currently playing first, then check the relevant stat, quest prerequisite, location and time requirement instead of simply grinding every available activity.
