Where to Find Rare Forging Materials
- Silver Powder: Purchased from village herbalists or extracted from raw silver veins in Sanguis Valley.
- Meteorite Ore: Discovered in ancient impact craters guarded by subterranean horrors.
- Blood Essences: Harvested after slaying elite night bosses such as /bosses/ambrus/ and /bosses/xanthe/.
Optimizing Your Forging Schedule
To minimize wasted time ticks, gather enough materials to perform 2 to 3 consecutive weapon upgrades in a single visit. This prevents redundant travel across provinces!
