• First, buy a ton of essential gear from the Rakugai arms dealer. Buying one at a time works well.
• Next, take all the items you just acquired and donate them to the Blacksmith.
• Repeat this process until you become a level 15 blacksmith and the Rakugai arms dealer starts selling special supplies. It will take several hundred donations.

Now that your vendors have leveled up and you have plenty of the materials you need, you can start crafting and upgrading items in the Blacksmith.

Each enchanted weapon will need to be obtained from the Dead-Eyed Man in this manner.

Although he has the power to create these magical items, you will must return to the Blacksmith to fully upgrade these items with new seals.

Regardless of the weapon or accessory, filling each open slot with a seal will improve the itemand strengthening the seal will improve its effectiveness.

1. Buy the necessary materials for needlework.
2. Craft the best (gold) item of the required quality in the Blacksmith.
3. Equip the item and talk to the Dead-Eyed Man by the river in Mukurogai.
4. Get your enchanted item.
5. Return to the blacksmith to upgrade your item with seals.
