How to Get Tusk Act 1 in A Universal Time [AUT]

Tusk is a unique ability in A Universal Time, where it can be evolved three times, and each evolution makes it stronger than before. We’ll start with getting Tusk Act 1, then explain how to get Acts 2, 3, and 4 in AUT!

Tusk Act 1 – Spinning Nails

1. Find Gyro Zeppeli (TA1): Locate Gyro above the waterfall at the top of the Desert’s Approach.
2. Accept and Complete the “Spinning Nails” Quest: This quest has two parts:
   • Kill 15 Thugs.
   • Find a Saint’s Ribcage.
3. Obtaining the Saint’s Ribcage: There are three ways to find this essential item:
   • Scavenging Sand Debris: This method has a 5% drop chance in the Devil’s Palm.
   • Loot Crates (Epic Drop): Open Epic Loot Crates for a chance to receive the Saint’s Ribcage.
   • Rare Floor Spawn: Keep an eye out for the Saint’s Ribcage as a rare spawn in the world
4. Temporary Spin Energy: Upon completing this quest, you’ll get Temporary Spin Energy.
   • This energy is server-specific and will reset if you leave the server.
5. Unlocking Tusk Act 1: While you have the Temporary Spin Energy, equip Standless and then use the Saint’s Ribcage from your inventory. This will unlock Tusk Act 1.

All Tusk Evolutions – Act 2 -4 Walkthrough

Each Act of Tusk is a distinct Stand with increasing power in AUT. You start with your Tusk being in Act 1, and its max evolution is Act 4.

Tusk Act 2 – Golden Rectangle Nails

1. Max Level Tusk Act 1: Reach level 200 with Tusk Act 1. This is the maximum level you can achieve in AUT.
2. Find Gyro (TA2): Gyro, for this stage of the evolution, is located in the park near the Training Dummies.
   • To the left of the West Hotel, underneath a tree.
3. Complete Gyro’s Quest: This quest involves three tasks:
   • Travel Distance w/ Nail Glide: 1000
   • Defeat Hooligans: 15
   • Defeat Thugs: 15
4. Complete the Bounty Quests: After completing the initial quest, Gyro gives two more tasks:
   • Amass Bounty with Tusk Act 1: 250,000
   • Claim Bounty with Tusk Act 1: 250,000
5. Obtain the Saint’s Arms: Completing the bounty quests rewards you with the “Saint’s Arms” item. This item is temporary and only usable on the current server.
6. Evolve to Tusk Act 2: Use the Saint’s Arms on your Tusk Act 1 to evolve it into Tusk Act 2.

Tusk Act 3

1. Reach Ascension 2 with Tusk Act 2: Reach Ascension 2 with Tusk Act 2.
   • Do this by getting Max Level [200] and spending UC coins to ascend it. Do this twice.
2. Use the “Dark Determination” Move: Using Dark Determination has a 40% chance of evolving Tusk Act 2 into Tusk Act 3. You may need to use this move multiple times.

Tusk Act 4 – The Infinite Rotation

1. Find Gyro (TA4): Gyro, for this final stage, is found in Alabasta, but you must be level 200 and have Tusk Act 3 equipped to begin his quest.
2. The Infinite Rotation Quest: Complete this first part of Gyro’s quest to defeat 35 Hooligans
3. Investigate Funny Valentine (7-minute Time Limit): After killing the Hooligans Gyro tasks you with investigating Funny Valentine. This quest has a 7-minute time limit.
   • If the timer runs out, you fail the investigation, are killed, and must restart the quest. Talk to Gyro to retry.
4. Find Four Clues: Four clues spawn randomly across Alabasta. I have not guided this because it’s random; where I find my clues will be completely different from where you will.
   • Important: These clues spawn sequentially. Only one clue is available at a time. After you find a clue, the next one spawns. The clues are:
     • Blood Stains
     • Dirty Napkin
     • Corpse Parts
     • Flag
5. Return to Gyro: Once you’ve found all four clues within the time limit, return to Gyro.
6. Defeat Funny Valentine with Tusk Act 3: Gyro now instructs you to defeat Funny Valentine using Tusk Act 3.
   • Funny Valentine Location: He spawns every hour at the bottom of the ditch in Devil’s Palm.
     • This is to the left of the curses area, right in the middle.
   • Funny Valentine Stats and Abilities: 30,000 health. He cannot be ragdolled or grabbed but can be stunned.

8. Obtain Tusk Act 4: Successfully defeating Funny Valentine with Tusk Act 3 will finally evolve your Stand into the powerful Tusk Act 4. But you must then return to Gyro to complete the questline.

Remember that some items and abilities are server-specific, meaning they’ll be lost if you leave the server.
