Tips for making a weapon yourself in AIKA Part 1

Level Down
All equipment carries a minimum level requirement for use, which is troublesome when a player finds a great piece of armor or weaponry but is still a few levels away from being able to equip it. The Level Down enhancement is the perfect solution. For a fee which increases as the item rank increases, a Blacksmith will attempt to reduce the minimum required level for Aika Online Gold a specific piece of equipment. De-leveling is a riskier endeavor and carries a greater penalty if the procedure doesn’t succeed – you may end up spending your money only to increase the required level for equipping an item! However, many fearless players consider the gamble worthwhile for the chance to use higher quality weaponry and armor.

Transfer
Another reason to become very familiar with your local Blacksmith is his ability to infuse equippable items with the properties of other equipment. This process is called Transfer, and it entails a one- to-one reassignment of a particular item’s offensive, defensive, and magical statistics to another of the same type of item. The two pieces of equipment involved must be Aika Online Gold similar in all respects except for these statistics – it is impossible to transfer a weapon’s properties to a helmet, for example, or Warlock boots’ properties to Paladin boots. The cost of Transfer is always 500 gold, but the process itself is less reliable. There is a chance that the operation will not succeed, in which case both items will remain unaffected. Transfer requires the presence (and consumption) of Athlon, a special stone which can only be found or received as a

reward
The procedure may be useful for an instance where a player wishes to disguise the true nature of his or her level – transfer enables a more experienced player to take on the appearance of a new player (via lower rank armor and weaponry) without sacrificing the power of level-appropriate armaments. Alternately, transfer could prove a boon to the player who wants to preserve the aesthetics of an item while changing its features to match a less Aika Online Gold visually appealing but more powerful piece of equipment. Note, though, that level restrictions transfer along with the item’s other properties, and that the item whose statistics are being reassigned is destroyed after a successful transfer.

Reinforce
The crystalline powder known as pellurite and the liquid chemical rubicine are renowned for their armor and weapon-reinforcing powers, and in the hands of a capable Alchemist they can add considerable heft to an item’s attack/defense properties. Pellurite and rubicine may be found or purchased, but as they come in different ranks as equipment does, one must take care to match the rank of the substance with the rank of the item being reinforced. This process adds points to the statistics of an equippable item via a percentage increase which accounts for the rank of the item. The cost of reinforcement rises with the quality of the equipment, and there is significant risk involved – if the procedure fails, the item being reinforced may be damaged or destroyed, especially if it has already been reinforced several times. Still, the advantages which reinforced equipment confers in battle encourage savvy players to stomach the uncertainty.
