What you want to do now is experiment what's the best farming spot for you, or alternate between them. The objective here is to accumulate around 200m and aim for a +12A {{#item:550132}}. This will be your endgame weapon, and it's pretty cheap to get. You can either opt for buying it off someone for around 200-250m zeny, but I'll explain how to make it yourself, which is usually cheaper. You can't farm most of what's required for the weapon at this point, so just focus on farming zeny, {{#item:25729}} and {{#item:25731}} if you're going to attempt this.

!Get the base weapon {{#item:550132}}. This is obtained by opening {{#item:41245}}, which you can't farm yourself for now, but it's normally available in the market if you check with @ws 41245. Buying the boxes will be cheaper than buying the base weapon directly, since every weapon that you get when opening a box can be sold back to NPC for around half the cost of the box.

# Get it to +9. To do this, combine {{#item:1000322}} with {{#item:984}} at Vurewell (@go 50) to get {{#item:1000332}}. You'll need, on average, 125 {{#item:1000332}} to get a +9. The weapon won't break when you fail, but it will lose 3 upgrades levels. Just keep trying until you get it.

# Once it's +9, you can do your first item grading from no grade to D! To do this, buy 15 {{#item:1000323}} from Garm @go 50, combine them with 5 {{#item:720}} to get 5 {{#item:1000325}} and use the Enhance Grade option from Garm to attempt grading, choosing the safe option that consumes all 5 {{#item:1000325}}. Be warned that the option that consumes just 1 {{#item:1000325}} can and will destroy your item, so stay away from it.
|-
# At this point, if you won the 20% chance, then your weapon will be grade D but lose all the refine levels. If you didn't win the 1 in 5, then you got to keep trying. I'm sure you see where these 200m are going, if you get a bit unlucky.

# To attempt grading from D to C, you'll need your weapon to be +10. To do this, my recommendation here is to make it +9 with {{#item:1000332}} just like before and then use {{#item:102668}} to make it +10. Buy the {{#item:1001552}} and {{#item:1001553}} from the market with @ws, buy the {{#item:1000323}} from Garm. You should have some {{#item:25729}} and {{#item:25731}} from your farming adventures, but if you're short just buy some.

# Repeat step 3, but this time with {{#item:1000326}}, which is significantly more expensive. Good luck!

# From C to B, your weapon will need to be +11. Get it to +9 same as before, and this time use 2 boxes to make it +11.

# Repeat step 3, but this time with the even more expensive {{#item:1000327}}. You'll want some more of that luck.

# All the luck in the world to you, my friend. Each attempt with {{#item:1000328}} costs nearly 30m zeny, and this is what determines whether it would have been cheaper to buy it off someone else or not.
!Repeat step 3, but this time with {{#item:1000326}}, which is significantly more expensive. Good luck!
# Once you one shot that 40% to grade A (cough), go +9 again as usual and then use boxes to refine the weapon to +12. Yes, it goes to +12 with boxes. If you read carefully you'll notice it says the box can be used up to +11. If you use it on a +11 weapon, it becomes +12.

Farm yourself a {{#item:300455}} and buy a {{#item:27384}} to complete your weapon, equip it, and then feel good cause you just doubled your damage. You can also get a {{#item:300458}} for your shoes. The transition to endgame is one big step closer.
