PC / Global, base game through February 2026 endgame updates

WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Gemma’s Smithy’s Reinforce/Dismantle Artian Weapons menu; reinforcement materials come through Festival Shares with Nata or Roqul in Azuz.

Artian weapon reinforcement is a Smithy process separate from forging. Reinforcement Materials are obtained from Nata or Roqul in Azuz through Festival Shares. Each reinforcement level grants a bonus such as attack or element, up to a maximum of five bonuses. Check the weapon’s current state and the menu’s requirements before investing. Dismantling returns the Reinforcement Materials you invested but not the original Artian Materials used to forge the weapon. This makes the process useful for improving a chosen Artian weapon while keeping the cost and recovery conditions clear before you commit.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

Forge an Artian weapon after unlocking the system.
Have Reinforcement Materials obtained through Festival Shares.
Have access to Gemma’s Smithy and the weapon menu.

Speak with Nata or Roqul in Azuz and use Festival Shares to obtain Reinforcement Materials.
Open Gemma’s Smithy and select Reinforce/Dismantle Artian Weapons.
Choose the Artian weapon to improve.
Review the displayed material cost and available action.
Confirm a reinforcement and inspect the bonus applied.
Repeat if you want further bonuses and still have materials.
Stop when the weapon reaches five bonuses or your build goal is met.

Farming tips

Bonuses can include attack or element increases; inspect the weapon after each level.
Dismantling returns invested Reinforcement Materials only, not the Artian forging materials.

Repeat, collect and use

Reinforce up to the five-bonus maximum while materials are available. Each level uses materials; dismantling does not refund forging parts.

Common mistakes

Confusing reinforcement materials with Artian forge materials; use Festival Shares for reinforcement supplies.
Expecting dismantling to refund every input; only invested Reinforcement Materials return.
Continuing beyond the five-bonus cap; check the current count.

When to stop or switch

Stop at five bonuses or when the weapon meets your build’s needs. Switch weapons or obtain more Festival Shares for another target.
