*Note: in his Minstrel stance, Vincent can attack multiple enemies at once with his regular attack, much like shotguns. His Serenade stance is support only, so he can't attack in this mode.
Vincent Rio's Minstrel Stance
Comments: Vincent is the Equipment Upgrader from Auch and knows how to play the lute. He was a famous musician.
Required Level: 1
Where can he be found:City of Auch
How do I get him?
1. Talk to him in Auch. He will ask for a Possession Lightning stance book which can be bought from the Elementalist Master from the Master Room.
2. Next you will duel him. His level in the fight will depend on the levels of your characters you bring. If you bring high level characters, he will be a high level. Bring a low level character and you fight a lower level Vincent. I think his level will be based on your highest in the team. At low levels, he will hit for approximately 500 damage so bring lots of potions.
3. He will then ask for 20 Upgrade Accelerators before he gives you his card.

Quest Tips
1. Cost of two bundles of 10 Upgrade Accelerators: $8.50
2. Initially he will use Lightning bracelets. He will be able to use a Lute after Level 60.
3. While doing the Serenade stance quest, bring some Invisibility Potions or a Wizard with Invisible Stalker. This will make the battle much easier since they hit extremely hard.
