Get Stronger
Some dungeons expect you to bring strong equipment, so this section helps you get up to speed.
Obtain the Best Equipment
Kabura Sutegi + Rasen Fuuma
Pros / Cons:
- (+) Highest base stats in the game, resonance effect lets you 2-shot Gitan Mamels.
- (−) Must bring 2 Strength Grass if you want to equip 2 bracelets at the start of a dungeon.
- (−) Costs twice the amount of Gitan to fully upgrade starting from Manji Kabura and Fuuma Shield.
Set Stats:
- Weapon: 50 Base Attack (Max: 149 non-sacred, up to 159 sacred).
- Shield: 30 Base Defense (Max: 129 non-sacred, up to 139 sacred).
- Resonance: Your normal attacks deal an additional 10 damage.
How to Obtain:
- Kabura Sutegi = Upgrade a Manji Kabura+99 at the Traveling Blacksmith in Shukuba Beach.
- Rune slots will be set to 15 slots upon transforming the Manji Kabura.
- Rasen Fuuma = Upgrade a Fuuma Shield+99 at the Traveling Blacksmith in Shukuba Beach.
- Rune slots will be set to 15 slots upon transforming the Fuuma Shield.
Yamanba's Cleaver + Yamanba's Potlid
Pros / Cons:
- (+) Resonance effect lets you equip 2 bracelets without bringing Strength Grass.
- (−) Fewer initial rune slots than Kabura Sutegi and Rasen Fuuma, so needs more Slot-adding Scrolls.
- (−) Lower damage output than Kabura Sutegi + Rasen Fuuma.
Set Stats:
- Weapon: 10 Base Attack (Max: 109 non-sacred, up to 119 sacred).
- Shield: 10 Base Defense (Max: 109 non-sacred, up to 119 sacred).
- Resonance: Weapon and shield become cursed, increase strength by 4.
How to Obtain:
- Found in various postgame dungeons.
Upgrade Equipment
The quickest method to upgrade equipment is to use the Traveling Blacksmith in Shukuba Beach 9 times,
then fast-travel to Secret Ninja Village and upgrade 1 time → return to Shukuba Beach from the map.
※ You can return to Shukuba Beach after using the Wagoneer as long as you don't enter a dungeon.
Method | Count | Total cost to repeat until +99 |
---|---|---|
Shukuba Beach + Secret Ninja Village | 9 + 1 | (3,000 x 90 = 270,000) + (1,000 x 9 = 9,000) = 279,000 |
Only Secret Ninja Village | 1 | 1,000 x 99 = 99,000 |
The total cost is actually slightly less since the blacksmith occasionally upgrades by +3 instead of +1.
Earning Gitan
As you can see in the table above, you'll need a lot of Gitan to fully upgrade equipment.
The best way to earn Gitan is to sell high-value items in a dungeon shop and steal them back.
(See Stealing Guide for safe methods)
Methods to earn Gitan that don't involve stealing:
- Read a Fixer Scroll inside the Shukuba Beach warehouse when your Gitan total is 0.
- Equip a Golden Sword and Golden Shield at the same time, then hunt monsters for Gitan drops.
- Collect lots of Blank Scrolls in Domain of Staves and Scrolls, then sell Eradication Scrolls.
- This becomes more efficient if you've cleared Kiki Island and have unlocked Escape Scrolls.
Synthesize Runes
Finalize your main weapon and shield by synthesizing the best runes.
Slot-adding Scrolls can be used to increase the number of rune slots on an item (max: 30 slots).
Mixergons can be found between 16-30F of Training Path of Shopping, and can eat up to 4 items.
If your equipment isn't strong enough yet, you can go to Serpentcoil Island or Golden Highway instead.
To ensure safety, swing a Peach Staff at a Mixergon and synthesize in the Shukuba Beach warehouse.
Weapon Runes
Feel free to swap runes out depending on your preferences.
*1: Rune is also randomly found on sacred items in Isle of the Mighty.
Shield Runes
Feel free to swap runes out depending on your preferences.
