Items such as Flame Heart, Mystic Frozen, Rough Wind and Great Nature can be used to imbue the weapon with the Fire, Water, Wind and Earth properties, respectively. A weapon may only have one element at a time and using more than one elemental stone will cause the forge to fail. Slots may also be fitted with Star Crumbs. One, two, and three Star Crumbs will (respectively) add +5, +10, and +40 Mastery ATK to all attacks from the weapon. | <p></p><p></p><p></p><p>Additionally we change how ranking blacksmith work to be more rewarding</p><p><br>Rank 1 Blacksmith +45 Mastery Attack |

## Forged Weapon Name Adjustment

To make forged weapon names clearer and more distinctive, ROID has replaced the traditional **“Very”** naming system with rarity-based titles.

The naming changes are as follows:

* **1 Very** is now displayed as **Rare**
* **2 Very** is now displayed as **Epic**
* **3 Very** is now displayed as **Mythical**

This adjustment only changes the weapon name display. The forging system and its effects remain unchanged.
