How to Create the Strongest Weapon

Steps to Make the Strongest Weapon
Raise the Required Skill Levels Collect the Advanced Recipe Bread Strengthen "Claymore" with "Glitta Augite" Create "Heaven Asunder"

Raise the Required Skill Levels

As a prerequisite for creating the best weapon possible in-game, it is necessary that players raise the Skills Longsword and Forging to at least Lv. 46 and Lv. 82 respectively, allowing them to learn more advanced Recipes.

Collect the Advanced Recipe Bread

The next step to make the strongest weapon in-game is to collect advanced recipe breads, enough so that at least one of them will give you the recipe for Heaven Asunder. You can collect plenty of these by beating the boss in the dungeon Rigbarth Labyrinth.

Strengthen Claymore with Glitta Augite

After gaining the recipe for Heaven Asunder, players must then upgrade a Claymore with a Glitta Augite. This is to help give the Claymore wide attack range properties while also preserving its stats.

Create Heaven Asunder

After upgrading the Claymore, players must then proceed to create the Heaven Asunder. Gather up the needed components for the weapon, then craft the weapon. Afterwards, upgrade the Heaven Asunder with the upgraded Claymore as one of its materials.

Save before trying this process. You'll need to check with a Blacksmith if the Glitta Aurite's properties that were synthesized over to the Claymore were transferred over to the newly made Heaven Asunder. Reload and try again if it does not.

Combine With Your Favorite Weapon

The final step in this process is to upgrade a weapon of your choice with the upgraded Heaven Asunder. The goal is to carry over the Glitta Auxide's effects over to your weapon of choice. The only caveat in this process is that the preferred weapon must have a two slots available for both the Heaven Asunder and a Light Ore.

As usual, save before attempting this part of the process. You must ensure that the properties of the upgraded Heaven Asunder is carried over to your weapon of choice.
