IMPORTANT NOTE
Its okay to use it as a temporary but once you start upgrading, there is no going back. Unless you are willing to start from Stage 1 again
You can purchase your weapon again and again at grand harvest square with Naryu Silver after you did Act 7 Chapter 1.
I find Celestial Basin a good way to farm for Naryu Silver if you need it. Just kill the field mini boss and they will drop 2 each time.
How to upgrade your weapon
This is a simple guide on upgrading your Baleful/Seraph. To make things easy, I will refer to all weapon as Bale, and the number behind them as the stage.
Materials to upgrade = mats
This guide is to be followed loosely! Different people have different by rng or whatever so you have to make your own decision at the end of the day.
Two path to choose from as you can see from Equipment Upgrade Path.
Materials to Upgrade
Naryu Tablet:
They can be found everywhere in dungeon(f8) and not a lot of people needs it. This should be very easy to farm and bid for 1 copper.
Soulstone Crystal/ Moonstone Crystal/ Elysian Crystal:
These are often found in Treasure Pouches with the exception of Soulstone crystal which can be found in stacks of 10.
Pouches are often bid pretty high because everyone needs them even if they are very strong.
It is often a big waste to convert Soulstone/Moonstone/Elysian Orb to upgrade them as they can be sold for a high price, or use in other areas where you can't use the crystal version.
| Soul | 106% |
| Moon | 43% |
| Sacred | 108% |
| Elysian | 35% |
Lair of the Frozen Fang is the first dungeon that will drop pouches.
Heaven's mandate and Cold Storage will always have personal loot of the pouch.
Shattered Mast has the chance to drop the most pouches(3+5 from what I remember) in one run when it crit, remember to check the 2nd last boss as it might have a chance to drop it too.
Flower of Lament:
Given to you from quest, if not Sogun's Lament will always drop 1 and one personal petal
Tiakhan's skin:
Shattered mast. Personal estimation of around 33% drop rate. Like I said, personal estimation, it might widely varies.
Tips: While farming for the skin, you can actually get your Pinnacle Bracelet and Pinnacle Necklace here. I think they are better than Solak or Hallow's set.
Forging Orb:
Found in Naryu Foundry. Not sure about drop rate, feels like less then 20%.
Transformation stone:
Grab it from f5 or craft it yourself if you are in Forge Keeper guild
Void stone:
Best way to get this is Celestial Basin with Peaches. Naryu sanctum drop them too but its prolly too hard now with our current gear.
So the question, which path to upgrade?
Like I said, it really depends. Personally I would recommend the Void Stone path because I think its easier to farm void stone rather than the weapon and mats. The main story gives you very limited amount of void stone. You might get lucky with the daily dash too. And void stone path was created to upgrade weapon cheaper.
Thus, you have to decide which path you wants
