Dress Up! Time Princess Gift Crafting Farming Guide

Dress Up! Time Princess is a super fun game, but the crafting system can be a grind. This blog post covers Gift crafting, which you’ll need to optimize to level up your companions’ Goodwill. TL;DR – you’re gonna need a lot of Plant, Metal, and Arcane Essence.

The first thing you need to know is all companions are not created equal. Some require more Goodwill to level up and some require less. Here is how their levels are currently set (per the DUTP wiki):

Character	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Level 4	Level 5	Level 6	Level 7	Total
Lafayette Fersen Light Davis Charlotte Aldous	24	510	1210	2370	4140	6660	10640	25554
Louis XIV Kahir Vittorio Audwin	20	400	960	1870	3280	5280	8430	20240
Gabrielle Chapur Sinbad Diane	20	320	760	1480	2590	4170	6650	15990
d’Eon Blaisdell Scheherazade Kane	20	260	610	1190	2070	3330	5320	12800

There are two ways to level up Goodwill – interactions (aka tapping on them) and gifts. You can interact up to 5 times a day with each character, and each interaction gives you 10 Goodwill points. You can give up to 16 gifts a day to each character, and each gift gives you anywhere from 10-90 Goodwill points. Obviously, you’ll want to craft the gift for each character that gives you the maximum 90 Goodwill points, and those are the 3-star gifts. To make it easy for you, here’s the list of all the 3-star gifts you’ll need to craft for each companion.

Ok, so if you’re going to farm gift crafting material, where should you start? Let’s simplify the math by ignoring the potential Goodwill gained from interactions and focusing only on gifts. We’ll also stop at Level 7 Goodwill because that’s the highest required for any of the stories (though that might change as the game matures). 

	Total Points Required	Total 3-Star Gifts Required

Fersen	25554	283.9333333

The most “expensive” companions will require 283-ish gifts to get to Level 7 while the “cheapest” companions will only require 142 gifts to get to Level 7. Each gift requires two ingredients. Thus we can use that information to calculate how much of each ingredient we will need to get every character up to Level 7:

Ingredient	# Required
Plant	1029.97
Metal	970.42
Arcane Essence	959.16
Spices	792.75
Glass	734.22
Gemstone	733.71
Fabric	567.86
Medicine	461.6
Wood	319.89
Water	284.44
Fruit	283.93
Seasoning	224.89
Dye	224.89
Paper	177.67

However, if you’re looking to progress through the Storybooks in order, you might want to focus on one set of characters first. For example, if you want to do Queen Marie to completion before moving onto another Storybook, then you’ll need to know which materials to farm first specifically for Queen Marie:

Queen Marie

Queen Marie Material	# Required
Arcane Essence	603.82
Gemstone	508.82
Fabric	283.93
Medicine	283.93
Seasoning	224.89
Wood	177.67
Glass	142.22
Plant	142.22
Water	142.22

Magic Lamp

Magic Lamp Material	# Required
Plant	461.6
Glass	367.11
Fruit	283.93
Dye	224.89
Arcane Essence	177.67
Medicine	177.67
Metal	177.67
Water	142.22

Gotham Memoirs

Gotham Memoirs Material	# Required
Spices	567.86
Metal	508.82
Plant	426.15
Gemstone	224.89
Arcane Essence	177.67
Paper	177.67
Wood	142.22

Swan Lake

Swan Lake Material	# Required
Metal	283.93
Fabric	283.93
Spices	224.89
Glass	224.89

Hope that is helpful! Remember, the numbers here EXCLUDE any Goodwill you might get from daily interactions. So, don’t go farming EXACTLY 603 Arcane Essence for Queen Marie – the information is just meant to be directional. So if you have some spare coins to spend in Parven’s Shop, you’ll want to prioritize Arcane Essence. Does that make sense? Hope so :)
