View Full Version : Will we be able to buy 8* weapons from NPC shops soon? Plus

I'm trying to decide between paying 90,000 for a Cometara (7* wand) or paying 110,000 + materials to synth a Lidra (8* wand). I checked some player-owned shops and the cheapest I've found is 295,000. The difference in stats doesn't seem big enough to warrant that kind of a price increase.

I'm tempted to just wait for it to become available in a store. Will that happen any time soon?

Anyone know what the recipe for the Lidra calls for? The game doesn't give you any idication as to what is required and the item database doesn't have the ingrediants listed...just the board.

I'm in the same situation as you. Trying to decide between 7 star granarod and 8 star mayrod. I saw someone with both the mayrod and lidra boards inserted into their PM's. They both require the same materials:
10 El-photon
6 Vestaline
6 Cyral
6 Neu Ebon

Hope this helps.

Edit: I just went back to his shop, with a 100 tech PM it gave a 54% chance on the synths.

Yep, 54% for 8* with 100 tech. I've got a Mayrod synthing right now. *Crosses fingers* >_<

Would a grinded B weapon beat your non grinded A rank weapon?

A well ground B rank is obviously going to outrank the A unground...
Till we gain the ability to grind A's, I won't bother with them unless the weapon only comes in A rank (ex: Claws, Cards, etc.)

Is it me or is it practicaly pointles to level a mag for other than what it's class in battle will be.seems to me like the stats don't help jack for synthing like they should.

It just means the very extremely rich will own the best stuff.

Noticed on the top 5 pages there were several of these threads with the same content. lol

There's still rare equipment drops just like in PSO...except now instead of weapons, we'll probably get boards. Also, rare materials aren't that hard to find...in a Sleeping Warriors B run, I found 2 Grinder Base As, a Chicotite, Slaterian, Nano Resin, and a Svaltus Edge. Plus, I've heard plenty of people report finding 7* GRM Sabers (90,000m weapon) in Linear Line S...so I'm sure once we get all the other S rank missions, people will begin finding the Tenora/Yohmei 7*s.

Very much. Thanks. I basically have enough materials to make 2 of them right now so I think I'm going to give it a shot.

Maybe it won't be as strong a rod/wand, but I can use it at a lower level if I make a new character. And I doubt I'll need all 100k to do it.

A B rank 6 star tomoirod has 435 tech power and an A rank 8 star mayrod has 575. About how many grinds would it take for the tomoirod to pass the other? (Just curious about the risk of breaking cause the 6 star cost 35000 a piece.)

I believe it takes +9 to get the Tomoirod on par with the Mayrod.

*sigh* I just made a 200k dimate, gg synthing.

Tried synthing 2 Mayrods (8*) so far for a friend on my 100 Tech PM and both failed. He's not very happy right now.
