By having 300 or more points, Gallon will give you the option to buy "????" which awards a barrier according to your class. These barriers are particularly useful to new characters who are just entering Very Hard as they require level 41 to equip and provide helpful stats along with moderate defenses to its respective class.
Note: You can only buy your class wall once per character.

Minigame Terminals

There are two terminals that offer mini-games, along with a Guild Card Reader terminal, which award "Gallon Points". These points can be exchanged to have an item wrapped up in a gift box or to earn prizes. There is also a fourth terminal, the Lucky Roulette, which will be covered in the next section.

Button-Mashing Game

This game involves mashing the action button as many times as possible in 10 seconds. You will be awarded a number of points based on your performance.

# of Button Presses Reward
30 to 49 1 Gallon Point
50 to 69 2 Gallon Points
70 to 89 3 Gallon Points
90 to 99 4 Gallon Points
100 or more 5 Gallon Points

Timing Game

This game involves trying to perfectly time when 8 seconds has elapsed. The more precise your timing, the more points are awarded.

Reaction Difference Reward
0.50 to 0.26 seconds 1 Gallon Point
0.25 to 0.11 seconds 3 Gallon Points
0.10 to 0.01 seconds 5 Gallon Points
0.00 seconds 10 Gallon Points

# of Guild Cards Reward
10 to 29 10 Gallon Points
30 to 49 30 Gallon Points
50 to 99 50 Gallon Points

A fourth terminal, located inside Gallon's Shop, allows one to play the Lucky Roulette.
To participate, Lucky Coins are required, which can be gotten from Quest icon.png Phantasmal World #1, #2, #3 and #4.

Lucky Coins can be stored for up to a maximum of 100 Lucky Coins, after which quests will not give you any more until you use some to bring you below the cap.

Each Lucky Coin gives one roll on the roulette. The item received is dependent on the space that is landed on.

Paganini's Exchange

By bringing a minimum number of Tool icon.pngPhoton Drops to Hopkins (XZ: 90, -220) at a different part of Pioneer 2 during this quest, he will take you to Paganini to exchange them for one of a selection of items depending on the number brought.
WARNING: Only carry the minimum amount of Photon Drops needed in your inventory, as Paganini will take all of them for the trade.
You will be asked to confirm the exchange multiple times before it is finalized.

This exchange is notable for, among other things, the Tool icon.pngPhoton Sphere that allows you a more cost-effective and faster option of adding attributes to weapons, as a Photon Sphere adds 30% to a non-hit attribute (so long as the attribute is 70% or less) instead of, for example, spending 100 Photon Drops to add only 25% to that attribute.

Tool icon.pngPhoton Hoard (commonly abbreviated as "PH") is an item that is equivalent to 99 Tool icon.pngPhoton Drops, allowing the ability to store and carry more Photon Drops than normally capable.

Usage

Prior to the introduction of Photon Hoards, storing and making trades using large amounts of Photon Drops was complicated by the issue of only being able to hold or trade one stack of 99 Photon Drops at a time.

Photon Hoards thus allow for easier management of Photon Drops without having to store them separately in multiple banks (or by irreversibly converting stacks of Photon Drops into Tool icon.pngPhoton Spheres), as Photon Drops have multiple other uses.

Availability

Main article: Quest icon.pngGallon's Shop

In Gallon's Shop, by speaking with a man wearing military garb (XZ: -110, 145) within the room next to the quest counter, one can convert 99 Photon Drops into a Photon Hoard and vice versa.

You must speak with them twice in a quest sitting, while also holding at least one of either a Photon Drop or Photon Hoard, in order to activate this feature.

Note: In order to break a Photon Hoard down into a stack of Photon Drops, you must not be carrying any Photon Drops beforehand.

Trivia

Photon Hoards do not exist in normal gameplay, as they and their feature to supplement Photon Drops are unique to Ephinea, added in an update on June 16th, 2019.

Normally, one could only purchase a Shield icon.png Class Wall by having 300 to 310 Gallon Points. On Ephinea, however, it is possible to purchase one while having more than 310 points.
