Im working on my human fortefighter which is my first character. My favourite weapon at the moment is my sword but its only B rank. How do i go about getting an S rank one? Any advice on what to look for and how much it is going to cost me.

S on the second Rozenom mission drops huge cutter, I believe, and De Ragan on S2 drops the kan yu. But my opinion on the kan yu (if you're male - female can't use it) is to wait for the GUARDIAN boost road whatever, which should come soon enough. Makes it drop more often iirc.

GBR effects drop any rate from monsters and doesnt effect rare drops from boss boxes

So best thing is to wait for drops? Im not high enough level yet to go on those missions so guess ill have to wait.

lightning beasts S drops a huge cutter, I've seen one drop 3 times now, so if you have a high enough lvl character, that will probably be your best bet. As far as good A-ranks go (I know you didn't ask for this, but I thought it might be helpful), the Tenora A-rank swords look amazing and are fairly cheap to buy/make. As a human, you may want to consider looking up the crea swords (they're statistically not that great, but they look very nice) soda crea, creasword, and cresaud.

By the time you can do S or S2 missions, you might have enough $ to buy some S rank sword boards. (If you wanna try make one yourself.)

It sounds like the Gigush Combo may be up your alley. By using C-rank 2* swords and the Gigush Line armor, you get a decent boost in ATP to your attacks. It's much cheaper to make and buy a high % gigush in every element and a fire and dark gigush line, than to buy even 1 huge cutter. And ideally you'd have 6 huge cutters. If the gigush idea isn't for you, focus on 6* swords and try to get them ground up and in high %'s.

I'm not saying to forget about S-rank swords - they're amazing. It just seems like your character is at a point to make due without them for a month or two and focus on saving cash and working up skills.

Just get an 8* Tenora sword (are the 9s available yet?) and grind it up. That will have better ATP than many S ranks.

No, it's been on the JP servers since November 11th. And... really? It doesn't work on box drops? Hm, sucks to be a male sword user. :/

100+ Lutus Jigga drop the Kan Yu. Unfortunately, we don't have one at that level yet.

I always thought they dropped [b] Huge Cutter. Which enemy dropped that?

Just get an A Rank Soda Riban.

It has better ATP than most S Rank swords.

As to the nature of your original question though, you're going to have to look for drops from either bosses or rare monsters for an S rank weapon. Barring that, prepare to amass 5-50 million for one depending on exactly what you're looking for - with gunner weapons being in the higher tier...and even then I might be underestimating the price of some for the PC version.
