After completingSource Material Collection, you’ll receive the Event Quest calledA-Toymaking We Shall Go: Energy Storage. Speak to Bertrand and follow the quest navigator to collect Elemental Energy by having Pyro, Hydro, and Electro applied to you. Make sure toequip the Material Collector Gadgetduring this segment or your progress won’t count toward the quest.
Follow the quest marker to Cape Oath, where you’ll find two patches of Flaming Flowers, as well as Pyro and Electro Slimes. Step onto the patch of Pyro and allow the Pyro Slimes to attack you, which will constantly apply Pyro onto you and fill the Material Collector Gadget. You need to have Pyro applied on you for 15 secondstotal—it doesn’t need to be 15 seconds straight.
When completing this segment, be careful not to use characters who can accidentally apply Hydro, like Mona or Barbara, as they can prevent the Material Collector from filling up.
Follow the quest marker to Yaoguang Shoal, where you’ll find some Hydro Slimes and Cryo Whopperflowers. Simply stand between the Slimes and allow them to apply Hydro onto you until the Material Collector fills up. The Cryo Whopperflowers will constantly trigger Freeze, so you need tobreak out of the frozen stateto allow Hydro application to continue.

Stand between the Electro Slimes and wait for the Material Collector to fill up. Again, you need to have Electro applied on you for 15 secondstotaland not necessarily 15 seconds straight.
