Part 4 of the As Dusk Falls guide covers crafting ultimate equipment, including accessories like the Dragon Scale Icon and Soul Trap Chain.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Obtain Red Power from the White Obsidian reward from the Elegant Lady's request in Hornheim, or from the (Alt) Yggdrasil-Flower Gate. Red Power grants +4 to HP, MP, ATK, and SPD, and its attacks decrease all stats of the target.
  2. 2
    Word Stone-Man is a request reward from the Old Gentleman in Vierzeberg.
  3. 3
    Ranun sells a Success Ring with Spirit Power and a Diamond Ball with Stats+6 and Skill Enhance LV3.
  4. 4
    To transfer Spirit Power from the Success Ring, follow this synthesis path: Success Ring -> Glass Tiara -> Fortune Card -> Nimbus Stone -> Polish Powder -> Training Dye/Expert Whetstone.
  5. 5
    Expert Whetstone and Training Dye are the only items that can transfer a single property.
  6. 6
    To transfer a whetstone property onto a dye: use the whetstone on a spare Ayesha or Wilbell weapon, then use Supplement-Green -> Cow Cream -> Hard Skin -> Dye.
  7. 7
    Alternatively, use whetstone -> Genug Blessing Pot -> Dye for a faster method, though it requires somewhat rare items.
  8. 8
    Transferring a dye property to a whetstone is easier: use the dye on a metal armor, which can then be used to make the whetstone.
  9. 9
    Most effects cap at 100. Consider alternative properties if damage types like fire and ice reach 100 early, making multiple Spirit Powers redundant.
  10. 10
    The best weapons and armor are dropped by bosses or high-level mini-bosses. The mini-boss Leader in (Alt) Decayed Ruin Island is a good source, though it takes four days to reach them. Equipment only drops if party members can equip it, requiring multiple trips. Fighting Tank in (Alt) Riesengang-Middle is another option, but it's tough and drops only one piece per fight.
  11. 11
    Highest level weapons include Fairy Queen Staff, Spirit Broom, Diamond Pickax, Angel Sword, White Fang, Rainbow Ring, and Single Mixer. Highest level armors are Rainbow Shirt and Meteor Plate. These can be registered at Linca's bazaar shop for duplication.
  12. 12
    Equipment quality above 50 increases base stats by 1% per point, resulting in a 70% boost at 120 quality.
  13. 13
    Weapon and armor quality can be raised using high-quality whetstones/dyes and will not decrease if low-quality ones are used. Quality can be changed before or after adding properties. If changing quality after adding properties, use Artisan's Whetstones or Polish Dyes to avoid transferring properties.
  14. 14
    Accessories can be registered in Regina's bazaar shop for multiple copies.
  15. 15
    Accessories can have duplicate properties on a single item through recursive syntheses, rather than using whetstones and dyes.
  16. 16
    Dragon Scale Icon Recipe: Ingredients: Land Dragon Scale (F Pursuit), Melt Steel (I Pursuit), Pretty Ore (L Pursuit), Polish Powder (Ruler Possession). First, create a high-quality Melt Steel with desired properties by transferring them from a metal weapon or armor. High-quality Polish Powder is also needed. Synthesis: Land Dragon Scale -> Pretty Ore -> Polish Powder -> Power Transfer Melt Steel. If quality is not 120, use Power Pour on Polish Powder. Requires 88 CP minimum.
  17. 17
    Soul Trap Chain Recipe: Ingredients: Crystal Claw (Damage Chain), Steel Yarn Ball (Absorption Power), Soul Slag Stone (Slag Specific), Word Stone-Sea (Wit Overflow). Transfer desired properties to a spare Ayesha or Wilbell weapon, then create Supplement-Green -> Cow Cream -> Steel Yarn Ball. Synthesis: Crystal Claw -> Word Stone-Sea -> Soul Slag Stone. Use Power Pour on Steel Yarn Ball until desired elemental levels are reached, then use Power Transfer.
  18. 18
    Ayesha can benefit from equipment with Skill Enhance and Skill Power properties to boost her items' effectiveness, as her Power stat affects items.
  19. 19
    Ayesha's Critical stat also has an effect, so accessories like Dragon Scale Icon and Soul Trap Chain with critical boosting effects, or properties like All Soul Pour, are helpful.
  20. 20
    Ayesha's Skill Cost stat (MP Usage) does not affect items that drain MP.
  21. 21
    Defensive properties like Virtual Image (+15 evasion) and Moon Power (+10 evasion) can significantly boost Ayesha's evasion. Reaching 100 evasion can evade 80%-90% of normal enemy attacks. Bosses have a higher hit rate, making 100 evasion less effective against them. An item property can further buff evasion (see Healing and Support Items).
  22. 22
    Alternatively, stacking HP +25 properties is an option if evasion is not prioritized.
Tips
  • When crafting, be mindful of property caps (usually 100) to avoid wasting synthesis slots.
  • Consider the specific needs of each character when equipping them; Ayesha benefits more from skill-focused properties than direct attack bonuses.
  • High-quality base items are crucial for maximizing the effectiveness of crafted equipment.
  • Utilize bazaar shops (Linca's and Regina's) to duplicate rare or powerful equipment and accessories.
