if i missed something ; feel free to tell me here or pm me in game ; if u want to pm in game just write : "  /Maki  "[dynasty]

Growing weapon (abbreviated as Gweapon) comes from Gweapon quest at level 20 or above.

Gweapon questgivers are Sharison in Magocean Village, Dynasty or Billy in Blaze Cliff, Empire.

When u manage to complete the Gweapon quest, u'll be rewarded with soul of Gweapon, the original form before a ready-to-grow Gweapon. Try your luck to activate the Gweapon soul into one of the following majors:
*Physical Attack

*Skill Attack

*Critical Strike Rating

*Hit


------------

GWeapon Upgrade






1/ Put ur Gweapon in here.

2/ Put sacrificial weapon (Fweapon, the one to be feeded) in here.

3/ U will need a technologic stone for Gweapon to proceed to +3, +4...etc

4/ As you know that an athlete becomes less flexible as develops on his or her professional track, so does the Gweapon. Success rate of Gweapon upgrade will reduce as Gweapon continues to upgrade. For example,
_ 1 ==>2 =100%
_ 2 ==>3 90%
_ 3 ==>4 70% 1 technologic stone
_ 4 ==>5 50% 1 technologic stone
_ 5 ==>6 25% 1 technologic stone
_ 6 ==>7 15% 2 technologic stones

- At this point, we will need special crystals to increase success rate in Gweapon upgrade. We can buy them from Mall such as Blessed crystal {S} I.

- Blessed crystal I will increase 7% success rate only[from 3-4 then from 4 to 5 it will be 5%]. However, we can combine 3 Blessed crystal I with 3 magic stones to increase the success rate to what A Blessed Crystal II does. Similarly, combine 3 Blessed Crystal II[10%] with 5 magic stones to equalize the success rate from A Blessed Crystal III [15%].

5/ Put blacksmith's heart or craftman's heart in here

6/ Put crystals  such as : Soul Protect Crystal - Burning Point Crystal

A/ we can grow Gweapon from 1 to 20

B/ When your weapon are +3 and you want to make +4, you will need technologic stone
- where to find technologic stone?
the answer is : from mobs


C/Now i will tell you about : blacksmith's heart and craftman's heart
-blacksmith's heart : it will keep the level of your Gweapon even if u feed it with a weapon at level 48.
for example : my Gweapon is level 12 and i just want to grow my weapon [ such as +2 3 4 5..etc] so i will absorb it with any kind of weapon +blacksmith's heart .

-craftman's heart : it will keep Gweapon atttribute [as colorized in blue in the Gweapon tooltip] unchanged in an upgrade; not the sacrificial weapon
for example : my Gweapon is level 12 with awesome att, i will choose to preserve its att by using craftman's heart .

you can use only 1 of the 2 hearts when u are trying to grow your weapon at blacksmith NPC.  put them into number 5.

D/ THIS IS IMPORTANT ; "life burning point" is very important to ur G-weapon; if Gweapon failed to upgrade, Gweapon will remain in ur inventory with crystal and other material things lost. But if your burning point is 1 and you upgrade and fail ; you will lost your Gweapon. So pay attention to your Gweapon llife point.

E/ You have to train your Gweapon from 0% exp to 100% exp then u can grow ur weapon[absorb another weapon]. if you don train it or your soul weapon is 99% exp; you still can not upgrade it [+2 3 4 5... etc].

F/ You can not absorb a sword with a bow [only absorb weapons same as your Gweapon's class].

G/ if u have a growing weapon and u are going to make a growing legend weapon , please think before u do it. because after u do it there is no ways for u to keep ur attribute .

+For example , i have a growing weapon , and i have a legend weapon . after i combine 2 of them and i have growing legend weapon. but later if i wana upgrade my growing legend weapon [ plus+] i have to absorb another weapon and i will lose all attribute of my legend weapon unless i absorb another legend weapon.

-even i use craftman's heart it will keep my attribute but it will change level of my legend weapon. and if u use blacksmith's heart . it will keep ur level growing weapon but it will not keep ur attribute .

- so if u have another legend weapon so there is no problem but if u don have and u want to upgrade ur growing weapon so think before u do it.

Author: Vitamins    Time: 2008-4-10 18:08

im pretty sure that when you upgrade from lvl 6 to 7, the chance is 15% not 5%. and it also costs 2 technologic stones instead of 1
Author: percy1105    Time: 2008-4-10 18:38

thank for ur info.
i thought it was 5% because my friend told me that it was 5% .

thank vitamins

wow nice guide....especially like the emotion tag when upgrading^^
Author: kolakidd    Time: 2008-4-18 11:46

if i fail going to +5 does my weapon go away?  or just lose burning points
Author: percy1105    Time: 2008-4-18 12:53

if your burning point is 1 and if i fail then ur growing weapon will vanish .
Author: odiux    Time: 2008-4-30 07:41

Great guide very very helpful but im curious, say at level 4 u sue 3 tec stones would that be better chance of working? or can u only use one at a time?
Author: Xiolin    Time: 2008-4-30 07:49

technological stones rnt used to increase the chances(%)..its just needed for it to grow..only blessed crystals(I,II,III etc..)r used to increase the chances.
Author: azbo    Time: 2008-5-1 07:46

good guide up to a point

i just found out that adding a higher lvl wep to be absorbed ,absorbes the gweapon, now i have a +2 scimiter i cant use for 4 lvls lol
Author: Anbu    Time: 2008-5-2 05:44

pls tell me one thing, its possible to have more then one growing weapon?
someone told me it was better if i save my growing wep. for legend one, makes some sense righ?
last question is... wheni absord higher lvl weapon to my growing one, what happen? it becomes stronger better stats or my weapon keep his inicial stats?

ty for your time and awser me
Author: percy1105    Time: 2008-5-2 12:07

1/ yes ,you should have more than 1 but i think you should focus on 1 soul weapon only because if u want to upgrade it from 0 to 20 ; its really hard and ...$_$[real money ; not money in game] <==== ok?

2/you don have to save soul,you can creat a new char then train to level 20 then get new soul and trade it with ur main char[ main acc] or find someone who u can trust and ask them to keep it then trade back to ur main char.

3/if i have a soul weapon level 1 , and i try to upgrade it to + 10  then if i want to upgrade it to +11 12 13... its really hard[ too expensive] so i will absorb it with my  legend weapon.
+if i have soul weapon level 42 +7 and i absorb it to my legend weapon [ level 42] if successful; i will have soul legend weapon level 42 +8 but if later i wana upgrade it to +9  ..... its not good because there is 2 ways to upgrade   
A/ add blacksmith's heart : my soul legend weapon is 42 and it will remain 42 but att[ options ] will change.
B/ add craftman's heart : my soul weapon will change level[ no more legend ] but att [ options] will remain.

4/yes ; its stronger and will absorb all attributes of weapon which u absorb .  [ keep level when u use blacksmith's heart - keep att when u use craftman's heart .]

GOD BLESS YOU!!! niceeee ty very nice!!!
Author: Anbu    Time: 2008-5-5 02:46

when you say that "You can not absorb a sword with a bow [only absorb weapons same as your Gweapon's class]." its not possible grown a sword weapon with a axe or bow with gun right?
Author: ShinRan    Time: 2008-5-5 03:02

possible, bow&gun/sword&axe are same class

Author: Vallic73    Time: 2008-5-6 11:16

+8 is a 28% Chance (after you're weapon turns into Advanced GWeapon) - takes 2 Techno Stones

I got +7 a bit ago here was a screenshot from it

Does anyone know how to combine 3 Blessed crystal I with 3 magic stones? I cant figue that part out. Not that I have enough platinum left to buy 3 crystals. LOL
Author: max9183    Time: 2008-5-12 04:49

im curious lets say I put the soul into a lv 18 weapon

is there a way to get the soul into higher lv weapons or is it stuck in that weapon?
Author: percy1105    Time: 2008-5-12 18:09

xenocat; what do u mean :combine 3 Blessed crystal I with 3 magic stones  ??
u can combine 3 blessed by moonlight box [ u can buy it at npc ]
3 blesssed I = II
3 Blessed II = III
--------
max9183 : it will stuck with that weapon but u can absorb higher level weapon into ur soul weapon
Author: Clourid    Time: 2008-5-15 22:55

Umm... How do I absorb a weapon?
Author: Limubai    Time: 2008-5-16 05:12

hey there, i have some questions about gweapons which i would be very happy if someone could answer them:

Q1: I have a gweapon which is a staff level 18, and it has some bonuses ( +1 INT and Water DMg +9). I want to put it lvl 24, what weapon (staff) should i use to get absorved? Can i use a low lvl one, like a lvl 6 staff bought at an npc, or do i need to get a staff lvl 24?

Q2:If i use a staff that has some bonuses, to get absorbed, will my gweapon get those stats and keep the old ones, or will it will just keep the new ones?

Thanks in advance
Author: percy1105    Time: 2008-5-16 11:40

ur growing weapon : level 18  [ 1int water dmg +9] now?! if u absorb it with 1 weapon level 1 ur growing weapon will become level 1 but will keep stats [ 1 int      water dmg+9] and  plus + .thats mean u have to use a good staff level 24 or a normal staff level 24[ u can use craftman's heart to keep stats of ur growing weapon so ur growing weapon will be level 24  and ur old stats and plus +

but if u use blacksmith's heart then ur growing weapon will not change level but ur stats[attribute] will change and plus more[ first +0 then after u absorb it will be +1 ]. for example ,   ur growing weapon is 18[1 int water dmg+9] +0  and i absorb a weapon level 6 with awesome stats[ 100 int  water dmg 100 ]  so i have to use blacsmith's heart  ,after absorb , my growing weapon is 18 with stats [ 100 int  water dmg10] and +1 .
Author: bearterrible    Time: 2008-6-4 22:48     Subject: Not that useful unless you know what you are already doing

This isn't a useful Guide.

1) You complete the quest. Okay.
Then what?

what is this about "physical attack, etc"
What is teutonic(sp?) stone?

Basically, it needs an over view so that people understand why they do stuff.
Also lacking spefic class examples.
Author: rodzi    Time: 2008-6-5 00:10

complete the quest then u recived the soul
tight click on the soul.
then go to blacksmith npc
Author: Legoz    Time: 2008-6-5 01:51

hello everyone,

i have a question regarding Gweapon here..(begin to understand abit but need confirmation).

1) let say i got a normal lvl 100 weapon (attack stat is huge), i can immedietly absorb that weapon into my Gweapon soul and i will get a lvl 100 weapon +0. Then, i have a good blue stat weapon which i can equip (lvl 20+) and absorb it to my lvl 100 +0 Gweapon plus a blacksmith heart, will i get a lvl 20+ Gweapon with huge lvl 100 attack stat AND the nice blue stat?

2) can a Gweapon (say lvl 18 sword+3) absorb another Gweapon (another sword +3)? if yes, will it become sword +6 with 100% success rate? (since that should be the 3rd attemp- [soul]+[normal](1 attempt), [normal+0]+[Gweapon +3](2nd attempt)  and lastly [Gweapon+3]+[Gweapon+3](3rd attempt))

3) is this possible,[Gweapon+2] + [Gweapon+3] will become Gweapon+5 with 100% success? if yes, then is [normal Gweapon+2]+[legend Gweapon+9]+[blacksmith heart]+[xx heart] will result in [legend Gweapon +11]?

thanks for clearing this up if someone have the time for it..since i dont have gweapon yet, i donno much and alittle tips upfront can help me alots. now that i know we can trade gweapon soul and gweapon among players, this game seems an ideal for my gaming style.
Author: percy1105    Time: 2008-6-5 03:22

1/if u have a growing weapon and now u are going to absrob a level 100 weapon then ur growing weapon will+1 not + 0[ if it was +1 then it will be +2]  .if u want to make it +0 u have to absorb a soul not a growing weapon. so u will have a growing weapon levle 100+ 0 .
to answer ur question , i thin ku misunderstood blacksmith's heart and craftman's heart.  
+ blacksmith's heart : it will keep ur growing weapon level - it will not keep ur growing weapon attribute [ blue stat]
+craftmans's heart will keep ur growing weapon attribute but it will  not keep ur  attribute so be careful when u want to make ur growing weapon stronger.

2/u can not absorb a growing weapon with another growing weapon.

3/read 2/

So... what hapens if you lose the item? Let's say, for example, that your little nephew messes with your machine and drops the item, and you lose it.

Won't you get other souls again frm monster drops?
Author: percy1105    Time: 2008-6-12 09:40

u can not get another soul from monsters; the only way which u can get soul , u have to creat another char then trade it to ur friend and then ur friend will trade it back to you or u can open another acc[ 2 clients +] .

It's gonna be detailed with gold upgrade cost, number of stones required for each level, and the bonuses chart of each level of a growing weapon. Coming up soon as I finish upgrading!

Hello,

Im at the point in the game where Im just finishing the quest to get the growing weapon soul (Im a warrior, knight subclass).

Does it matter what weapon is used in the original combination?  Or is the choice of weapon purely cosmetic.  (ie: If I combine a level 1 newbie sword cuz I think it looks cool, will that inhibit the growing weapon's effectiveness?)

Hi guys I hope you can help me out here...

I have a level 36  +4 surfy sword with 100% exp points 60 physical damage and two (2) so so attributes +? water damage +4 int.

If I happen to come across a better level 36 sword (nicer stats like a gold one or one with a slotted attribute, how do I absorb the new stats?)

FYI, when my surfy sword was +2 i tried absorbing two (2) nicer ( with + damage, leech, +hit) attribute level 36 swords with a craftman's heart but the stats kept on remaining the same. why so? How do i correct this then?

Thanks
Author: noobie77    Time: 2008-10-17 18:47

if u want to replace the old stats with new one just feed the gweapon w/o using any heart.

craftman is used to keep the old stats when upgrading.

blacksmith is used to keep the old weapon type (like Refined or Legends) when upgrading.
Author: Piriloko    Time: 2008-10-18 21:00

Hi there I started playing yesterday and I got my growing weapon soul. I read the entire topic but I didnt get it.

Now that I get the soul should I create the weapon with a newbie sword or my lv 18 sword is fine? Is it better to chose a blue, orange or whatever sword than a normal one? If I create a sword with, lets say, agi +1, will I have to absorb another sword with agi + to increase the attribute? So lets say that I have a gweapon lv 18 with agi +1 and absord a weapon lv 18 with agi +1 using blacksmith's heart, what will happen? and if I use a craftman's heart instead blacksmith's heart? My weapon have 92-114 of dmg, if I use it to create the gweapon will this dmg stay? Lets say that the gweapon now have those 92-114 dmg, if I absorb a another sword lv 18 will this dmg stay? And if I absorb a high or lower weapon, will the dmg be changed?

That's it for now. Just a 'few' questions xD

There is alot of good info in this post but for a newbie like me I need to know how and where to get all the stuff to do what is needed in this guide. I did all the quests to get the first gweapon but I have no idea if it is right for me and if it is where do I get all the rest of the items to do the upgrade that this guide talks about in the begining. Please pretend I am a dummy and fill in the holes... Thankyou
Author: zeropix2    Time: 2008-11-20 01:17
