Hints and tip for Dark Cloud

To build the perfect weapon all you need is a few synthspheres.

The first 2 are bandit slingshot or bandit ring and kitchen knife(you get the slingshot and knife early, I used them)Level them up any way you can(try shipwreck back level 17, you get gems and powerup powders as you search and kill) the gems are self explanatory and the powerup powder gives an instant upgrade(if your close upgrade through abs then powder) get these to +5 and attach them to the weapon you want to boost(if its a ring use bandit ring for the elementals) you now have a low level high speed, attack and endurence weapon, with mid magic and the quench(slows thirst build up) and steal abilities

The next sphere is bigbucks hammer do the same and add it on for the big bucks ability and to boost attack more(you should've built up by now so the max is higher).

Now add the Scorpion from Ungaga's weapons for the poison ability

-By now I had a x2 effect space-

from here on add the gems to the x2 space and only the x2 space until build up because you lose the x2 usually

Now the optional ability is Drain from the drain seeker (ive heard it only comes if you build up to it)

If there are other abilities you want add them too

now the tough decision status break this weapon to super boost someone else or keep the super weapon on that character

Its up to you but I recommend building you 2nd best weapon like this then adding it to that characters best weapon and using gems to finish out the weapons stats but some prefer to put this on then take it off at upgrade so they can transfer the sphere to the active character maxing out the stats of whoevers fighting(personally to much of a hassle i say build each character)
