[interview: Ask the crafter part 1]

today, we want to ask questions of a dynamic duo of crafters who have gained the respect of hunters far and wide for their work at the crafting shop- bone elder and iron elder! thier amazing works have hunters froting at the mouth with rabid desire.

page 2

Q; first thing first, let talk about manufacturing process of a weapon

Bone elder (BE)bone makes great crafting matirial!! its touch! its feel! its great!

iron elder(ie)what is he talking about!? metal has weight and radiance. it is clearly superior!

page 3

Q no no not about matiriels. i wanted to ask about the entire process of making a weapon.

BE; the entire process!? whether you are making a new weapon or just upgradeing one, the most important thing is materials!

page 4

Q OK OK, iron eldar what are you're thoughts on matirials

IE; well for creating a new item. it is key to procuce so-called special matirials. if you get these, you can create new pieces of equipment. when you get some new matirals you should bring them to the craft shop.

Q what do you feel are some of the key materials?

BE; well i cant really tell you a rule but... you can often get materials from monsters. for instance you can get scales or shells. for weapons, you should try using horns or fangs. Bone is also good materials for weapons.

page 6

IE; is he still talking about bone?! the key item is clearly ore. during high rank quests you may find rare ores. that is the most important rule for crafting. as you rise in class, you should dig for ore!

page 7

Q next is upgrades can you describe how to improve equipment?

BE; basically it extracts the potential from a weapon. for melee weapons, it means advancing it to the next evalotion.

IE; Egactly, by getting matirials and improving equipment, you can mold it into excellence. now thats progress.

page 8

Q progress?

BE; progress, the first in the evalotion is the improvment of a weapons sharpness. the next step is improving the weapon itself. This is usally the end of basc improvments. improving a weapon is that simple

page 9

IE; evolving a weapon is not the process of a 1 way street. it is the process of finding the right path for you. Improving melee weapons is the same thing .According to the materials used, you can raise offensive power, elemetal abilty or sharpness

page 10

BE ;lets talk about bone materials...

Q so um...how do you improve a bowgun

BE; improveing a bowgun is diffrent from a melee weapon. for instance, you dont need materials, just money. bowgun parts that can be improvesd are delicate. you cant just bang on things and hope they turn out OK.

page 11

IE; just to add, improving a bowgun is not only about improving overall offensive power its also about adding a barrel or scope. if you want to know more refer to the section allready prepared!

whooooooooooooooo that was a type and a half zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
