List of Boots

From Golden Sun Universe

Equippable items largely fall into four "primary equipment slots" on a given Adept: one weapon and three "armor slots" representing what is worn on the body, head, and hands. However, there are several other collections of equippable items that are not equipped into any of these primary slots, but instead into undefined "sub-slots" that prevent the Adept from equipping more than one of that supplementary type of equipment at a time. As an example, the items listed on this page belong to a Boot-class category.

In Golden Sun and The Lost Age, Boots are most often won as prizes from the Lucky Wheels minigame in settlements available later in each game: Tolbi and Contigo, respectively. Getting boots, shirts, and rings out of Lucky Wheels is the primary function of the Game Tickets you steadily amass while spending coins at vendors throughout each game. Any of the eight Adepts can wear boots, and an ideal endgame-level party would have everyone wearing a Boot-class item even though doing so takes up an extra space of inventory. In Dark Dawn, however, there is no minigame that dispenses boots, and many of the available Boots can only be worn by "warrior-style" Adepts.
