WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

A battlefield blacksmith or the Hidden Village at Mt. Tianzhushan.

Blacksmith upgrades raise the level of a weapon or armor piece using Copper and the corresponding material. Blacksmiths appear on battlefields and in the Hidden Village at Mt. Tianzhushan. Check the item and cost before confirming so you invest in gear you plan to use.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Reach a blacksmith.
  • Have Copper and the Steel or Leather material required by the chosen item.
  • Have a weapon or armor piece selected for your current setup.
  1. Speak with the blacksmith at a battlefield or in the Hidden Village.
  2. Choose Upgrade from the blacksmith’s services.
  3. Select the weapon or armor piece you intend to improve.
  4. Review the displayed Copper and material costs before confirming.
  5. Confirm the upgrade and check the item’s new level and power.
  6. Repeat for other chosen gear only while the cost fits your available materials.

Farming tips

  • Upgrade the equipment you actually use; frequent replacements can make broad upgrades expensive.
  • Use Salvage to recover materials from unwanted gear, but inspect items before dismantling them.

Repeat, collect and use

Repeatable whenever you have sufficient Copper and required materials. Each upgrade spends resources; it does not generate materials.

Common mistakes

  • Using Salvage when you intended to raise an item’s level: select Upgrade and verify the chosen action.
  • Ignoring the cost panel: check both Copper and material before confirmation.
  • Investing in every drop: focus on the loadout you expect to keep using.

When to stop or switch

Stop upgrading once the cost would leave too little material for a more important item or your current gear handles the mission comfortably.
