Forging System

Introduction

This guide is about how to forge minerals obtained in mining.

The Forging System goes hand in hand with the Mining System because it uses mined minerals to forge equipment. However, you don't necesarily have to mine in order to forge. You can always buy minerals from other players and attempt to forge yourself without mining. Likewise, you don't have to forge, you could just sell your minerals and use the zeny to purchase already forged equipment. It all depends which art you want to master, or if you are gifted, you could master both arts!

The following updates utilizes the forging system in creating various items and equipment.

• Forging Headgears: creates ready to use headgears with various effects, including a rare middle headgear.
• Fishing System: some rare fishing rods can be forged.
• Vanilla Headgears: grants access to vanilla middle headgears that were available during the Kick-Off Event, as well as a rare middle headgear.
• Shapeless Weapons: allows you to turn existing Death Weapons into new weapons that can be enchanted.

How to start forging

Marcus Goldstein NPC

The first step to begin forging minerals into powerful equipment is to obtain a Refined Forging Hammer from Dr. Marcus Goldstein. He can be found next to his brother at @go einbroch.
