Altho' my movements are restricted, because I
am still stuck with the demo for now, there still
seems to be a lot to do.

For instance, in an oblong building in
the Kentia East Gate Zone, I have found something
called the Forging Anvil.

You can enhance weapons and armor, by putting
artifacts labeled "Item Enhancement" and an object
on the anvil.

Right now, I am trying to get it to make a wand.
I have all the ingredience, but it won't work.

If anyone has gotten the chance to try this out,
can anyone tell me what I'm not doing here?

what do you mean by all the ingredients?

like, you got the ingredients needed off of a walkthrough, or what?

anyways, sometimes it seems you need to combine parts of it separately... i never bothered making wands, so i don't know if you do for wands.

in any event, if you're following the game's "recipes" you may have to read between the lines a little bit... often they aren't terribly specific...

Do you have a stick?

Stick? Yes. And the Drahon scale, the wiry moss,
... and the perfect shard. I think those are what
I need, but I'm not sure.

You need a gemstone, not a perfect shard.

Thanks. Got plenty of them, too. Kinda hording.
In the GF Series, ... you never know what's going
to prove useful.

EDIT: Huh? I'm trying to make a Wand of Inferno.
All I got out of this was a Spray Crystal.

And I already have 20 of those.

spray crystal comes from wiry moss + gemstone.

you need:

stick + gemstone + perfect drakon scale + demon bile

Well, I followed that recipe. And nothing happens
-- except that little comment below the forge that
these things don't combine to make anything.

What went wrong?

Have you double-checked to make sure you're using the right items, and not other items that look similar? Do other recipes work properly?

Yes. I have made the All-Protector, and I have
made spray-crystals. I've also successfully used
enhancements on all of my gear that I could.

I've checked, rechecked, and triple-checked what
I have on the forge. I have tried combining just
a couple parts at once. I have even tried testing
different ingrediants, in case the above advice
was a typo.

I'm out of options here.

i'm just going to check something here...

you say you're still in the demo area?

are you *sure* you have a drakon scale, and not (for example) a fyora scale? because those are completely different items, just so you know.

maybe i'm wrong, but i for one don't remember being able to get a perfect drakon scale that early in the game...

I'm in the South Fort Kentia area. And I am
using the right scale. Well, see, ... I am using
the character editor to get all the best good-
ies for this sort of thing.

Heh. I suddenly had so much stuff that it
took me three trips from in front of the school
ruins to the anvil shed to get everything pit
away in that locker that's there. That's where
I like to stash all my extra treasures.

Got some really nice enhanced items for it, too.

If you're already cheating, why not use an editor to give yourself the deuced wand in the first place? :P

Well, that's a nice idea, but wands aren't included.
Just the components.

On Cheating: Well, I'm sorry to admit that I am
just not as good at some games as I'd like to be.
I'd never get to see what happens next without
some sort of 3rd-person aid. -_-

Ok, I still don't get it. Read all messages and walkthrus I can find but this forging stuff escapes me.
I took bile and tincture and made purifying essence. I then put it with shaper belt to make perfected belt. I now put that on forge with blood poison and nothing happens.

Also, the recipe for a Crystalline Shroud is a deep focus orb and a "Plate". Not a dinner plate, I assume. So what is it? I have a huge pile of everything in the anvil room but nothing works.

Help!

you're reading it wrong.

you need the item on the top *and* bottom, so not only do you need blood poison, you also need a deep focus orb.

to get the shroud, you need the deep focus orb and crystalline fibers, plus perfected plate (same way as making a perfected shield, except you need a shaped breastplate instead of a shaped shield, naturally).

and so on.

hope that helps :D

Yeah, helps alot.
Apparently when I printed it off, it got reformated so nothing is "over" what it should be.
Will go back to original.

Thanks.
