It could very well take you hours to get a specific one if you want it with higher stats and such. All Swords obtained on Hard, this Guide is not meant for Easy. As TheManFromEngland did, I too will give a rating, between 1 to 5. UPDATE! StE has been changed to StK, Stats to Keep. If you pick up a sword that is close to my personal StK I think you should keep it. My StK will be based upon the second best I have seen and not my first as those are very rare. StK is based upon my personal experiences with these swords and the stats they have had when I have obtained them.

She will increase your Sword Safe by increments of 10 every time you commission her to do so. This will cost a lot of money after a few upgrades! Part 3.2 The Sword Informant ******************************************************************************** During Late Night and Early Morning of any day there will be a Sword Informant standing in Amahara Shrine. She will tell you the location of a Sword. Regular, Deluxe and Super-Deluxe Tips are available for purchase. Super-Deluxe Tips will unlock said sword in said location. The price is 1600 mon. Look for Super-Deluxe swords on the above list! Part 3.3 Upgrading Made Easy ******************************************************************************** Want a sword with 300 or 400 attack? Here I will explain how this is possible, simplified! When starting this process you have to determine the amount of time you're going to want to spend. This will take you hours. Part 3.3A What Sword To Use? ******************************************************************************** You're going to want a good sword with hiqh maximum quality and little current quality, such as a 1/12. The higher the starting attack and defense the better. Use this rule when looking for a good sword with high starting stats, if the total of attack and defense equals 100 or up, keep the damn sword! On occasion I've found totals of 200, but this is very rare. Part 3.3B Anything I Can Do To Increase Success? ******************************************************************************** To increase your over all chances for success make sure you work for Amakaze. Using Hard difficulty has given me a lot of success, some say Normal is just as good though. Part 3.3C The Process - When CQ is less than MQ ******************************************************************************** Legend listed below. CQ = Current Quality MQ = Maximum Quality UA = Upgrade Attack UD = Upgrade Defense UW = Upgrade Whatever You Like TA = Title Appraisal AD = Attack and Defense When starting this process remember to have patience, this will take time. Each upgrade adds 1 CQ, remember that. As each upgrade has a chance for success it also has a chance for failure. Sword Powder and Charms are useless, do not waste a quality point on your sword. The reason they are listed in my example upgrades is because I was not aware yet that an UW would give much better results. The following is for when your swords CQ is less than your MQ. The best result Dojima will give for a UA or UD is CQ +2, such as an 8/? which would give you at best +10 to whichever stat you decided to upgrade. This takes a lot less time than the next step, as CQ +2 with no negatives is much easier to obtain, even though you will have to soft reset as it is not guaranteed. If you have a lot of patience you can have Dojima UW. This can yeild amazing stats when your CQ is still relatively low. This process can yield at most +15 total points, nothing over +10 to a particular stat though. The best UW you can obtain would be +10 attack and +5 defense, it could be the other way around though. Keep in mind that an UW could also give you -10 attack and -5 defense. Simply reset if this happens. A good rule for which UW to keep is as simple as this. CQ +4, or higher if you get lucky. In my opinion you should only do UW until your CQ, when it is less than MQ, is at 8. As an upgrade to attack or defense, with no negatives, at 8/? will yield a +10 to whichever stat you decide to upgrade. Part 3.3D The Process - When CQ is equal to MQ ******************************************************************************** Legend listed below. CQ = Current Quality MQ = Maximum Quality UA = Upgrade Attack UD = Upgrade Defense UW = Upgrade Whatever You Like TA = Title Appraisal AD = Attack and Defense When starting this process remember to have patience, this will take time. Each upgrade adds 1 CQ, remember that. A sword can only go FIVE above its MQ. As each upgrade has a chance for success it also has a chance for failure. When CQ is equal to MQ, and above, Dojima will fail much more often than not. Escpecially after the third upgrade. He can, and will, break your sword. He can also lower its quality, lower its stats and break a durability if he fails. Im MY experience if Dojima fails and breaks a single durability your chances for him to say 'Okay, its ready!' improve by almost 50%. The chances it will be a a postive to AD are the same as usual. When CQ is equal to MQ, such as 10/10 the only upgrade you should ever do is UW. The reason for this is because when CQ is equal to MQ an upgrade to UW will be CQ + MQ, such as a 10/10 becoming a +20 to AD. Remember he can still fail and ruin your prized sword, one way or the other. Simply reset if he does not give a positive to AD. This takes a very long time. The first three upgrades when CQ is equal to MQ will not take as long as the last two upgrades, a sword can only go FIVE above its MQ. Good luck, this takes a very long time on occasion. Part 3.3E When To Title ******************************************************************************** Legend listed below. CQ = Current Quality MQ = Maximum Quality UA = Upgrade Attack UD = Upgrade Defense UW = Upgrade Whatever You Like TA = Title Appraisal AD = Attack and Defense This is difficult to decide, as it depends on you. If you want the best possible stat increase Platina is the way to go. Refer to the title list and choose what you like. Certain swords can TA based on name, see my sword list to see which ones have unique names. If you are going title your sword on name and it adds a quality point make sure you wait until your swords current quality is one over your swords MQ so you gain an extra upgrade out of the process. Part 3.3F The Platina Route ******************************************************************************** Legend listed below. CQ = Current Quality MQ = Maximum Quality UA = Upgrade Attack UD = Upgrade Defense UW = Upgrade Whatever You Like TA = Title Appraisal AD = Attack and Defense When starting this process remember to have patience, this will take time. For starters you have to decide if your going to take your sword down the Platina Route, which will give you +3 to MQ, such as taking your ?/12 sword to ?/15. Remember, you will not be able to TA it Platina until your CQ is 3 over its MQ, such as 15/12. The Platina route is the best possible choice for a sword with a MQ of ?/12, as the upgrades from 15/15 will give it a total of 160. If your sword starts with 15 MQ the Platina route will give you 160 to AD. If your sword starts with 14 MQ the Platina route will give you 150 to AD. If your sword starts with 13 MQ the Platina route will give you 140 to AD. All stats listed above are the total points for after you TA the sword Platina. Total points from 12 MQ 235. Total points from 11 MQ 219. Total points from 10 MQ 205. These are only for the Platina Route. Part 3.4 Example Sword A ******************************************************************************** Here is an example of The Process, I'll start with the standard Mumei-tou. After examing this you will see how to upgrade a masterpiece sword to the extremely high levels of attack and defense by following my Upgrading Guide and cross refrencing it with this Example Sword.
