- - Quest description
Claire's Deal 5 is a quest located in Episode 4, under the Shop category. In this quest, players may trade sets of specific items to client NPC, Claire, in exchange for other unique items.
Additionally, Dr. Montague may also be spoken to in this quest to exchange 
Photon Crystals for the chance to add Hit % to Enemy weapons, but only after completing a prerequisite sidequest to unlock the feature.
Trades
Claire will offer the player the following trades after passing her test, which involves clearing out enemies in the Crater. Once a character has passed Claire's test, further trades can be made by replaying the quest in the same difficulty without having to repeat the test.
Any common weapons listed in italics cannot be available for purchase from the Arms Shop, and may be worth a player's while to look out for.

- * Note: The trade for
Two Kamui may only be initiated while in a party by yourself, and can only be done once per character.
Adding Hit to enemy weapons
It is possible to add Hit % to enemy weapons (and only enemy weapons) despite the attribute not being eligible for increase through Paganini's Exchange in Gallon's Shop. To add hit % to enemy weapons, a character must speak with Dr. Montague in the episode 4 quest Claire's Deal 5 after unlocking the feature through a sidequest present in the government quest 9-5:The Chosen (1/2).
Once the sidequest is completed, speaking to Dr. Montague in Claire's Deal 5 with an enemy weapon in the inventory will have him offer to further enhance the weapon through a process requiring Photon Crystals. This process involves giving Dr. Montague an increasing number of Photon Crystals (starting with one) for a decreasing percentage chance (starting at 100%) of adding 10% more Hit to the weapon in question each time, to a maximum of 50.
| Exchanging Photon Crystals | ||
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Success Rate | Total Hit |
| 1 | 100% | 10 |
| 2 | 80% | 20 |
| 3 | 60% | 30 |
| 4 | 40% | 40 |
| 5 | 20% | 50 |
To unlock this option, the player must follow these steps:
- Start the quest 9-5:The Chosen (1/2)
- Proceed through the quest as normal until the large, circular crater room in Desert 1
- In this room, all enemies must be defeated within five minutes of entering the room
- If done successfully, a cutscene will play showing Dr. Montague appearing, who must be spoken to
- Proceed to the end of the quest as normal, and speak to Dr. Montague a second time in the last room before heading back to Pioneer 2
