To become a Dingbat, a character needs to master the [[Jawtoise (Vocation)|Jawtoise]], [[Chimaera (Vocation)|Chimaera]], and [[Kingfuchsia (Vocation)|Kingfuchsia]] classes or have a monster heart in their inventory when going to {{Alltrades Abbey 7}} to change their vocation. A '''Dingbat Heart''' can also be won from the '''Lucky Panel''' game in [[The Haven]]'s casino. Additionally, it can be dropped from Dingbats in the [[Hidden Pyramid]] or the {{Alltrades Abbey 7}} region in the present after the events at the [[Cathedral of Blight|Cathedral of Light]].

*In the Nintendo 3DS version, it is also possible to acquire a Dingbat heart by creating a custom [[Traveller's Tablet]] with a Dingbat as the boss. | |||
