The Amber Bobble, also known as the Thunder Bauble (in EBF3) and the Yellow Bauble (in EBF4), is a female headgear found in Epic Battle Fantasy 3, 4 and 5. Its armor counterpart is the Ranger Skirt from EBF4 onward, becoming associated with Anna as her default headgear.

Description[]

This headgear is a pair of shiny orbs used to hold up part of the wearer's hair in short pigtails. In EBF3 and 4, the orbs are solid yellow; in EBF5, they become orange (presumably made of Amber, as per their new name and forging requirements). Their EBF5 menu icon shows them with thin red strings, presumably to help secure them to their wearer's hair.

The Amber Bobble is typically a magic-focused hat that offers good Magic Defence and a strong resistance to Thunder. It also had a great MP boost before the stat was removed in EBF5.

Epic Battle Fantasy 3[]

The Thunder Bauble boosts Natalie's MP and Magic Defence by a good amount while providing a slightly smaller boost to her Defence. This makes it a good option for emphasizing her natural strengths, but can leave her a little vulnerable against physical attackers.

Befitting its name and description, the Thunder Bauble resists Thunder, up to 50% at Level 5.

Epic Battle Fantasy 4[]

The Yellow Bauble has nice MP and Magic Defence along with a decent Evade increase, but it has no special effects outside of its resistances. As such, it's best used against magic-focused foes or ones with strong Thunder and/or Stun attacks.

The Yellow Bauble resists Thunder and Stun, becoming immune to the latter at Level 5.

Epic Battle Fantasy 5[]

Normal[]

The Amber Bobble provides a good amount of Magic Defence, along with small increases to EvadeDefence, and Magic Attack. Its Stumpy Gloop auto-summon gives full-party Morale for a few turns, which can be a decent defensive boon; unfortunately, it also has a low trigger chance.

Despite being Anna's default headgear, the Amber Bobble complements Natalie's best stats, although its low Defence won't do much for her physical frailty. Aside from its resistances and auto-summon, it's outclassed by the likes of the Ice Shards for defense and the Flower Bobble for utility.

The Amber Bobble resists Thunder, Fire and Holy, but none of these become an immunity at Level 5.

Equip Remix[]

With solid Magic Attack and a little Evade on the side, the Alt Amber Bobble sacrifices defense for potent magic power. It allows the wearer to greatly buff her Magic Attack on Defend, and randomly summons a Cat Wizard between turns to heal a random player.

The Alt Amber Bobble is a useful asset for magic attackers; pairing it with the Alt Maid Outfit enables Natalie or Anna to buff both of her magic stats in a single Defend. It's tied with the Alt Flower Bobble for the third-best Magic Attack among female hats; it lacks bulk and its auto-heal isn't as frequent, but its on-Defend buff and Fire resistance can make it more effective in an offensive build.

The Alt Amber Bobble resists Thunder, Fire and Earth. None of these become an immunity at Level 5.

Epic Battle Fantasy 3[]

The Thunder Bauble is found in a chest in Rock Lake, behind a Blue Clay encounter on the screen with the pirates.
