dark cloud weapon evolution charts & stats by walkthruwalls

-----------------------------------------------------------

you only get 1 serpent, macho, sun, mardan eins, and chronicle 2.
(probably only 1 mirage and no aga also)

for mardan eins, catch a mardan garayan, then buy it for 2500 fp.
to build it up, you must catch more garayans ( mardan or baron ).
you must catch more again to build twei to arise, it doesn't matter
how many you caught before building eins to twei - they don't count.

the lamb's sword changes to wolf mode when low on whp.

it stays in wolf mode with auto-repair powder but not repair powder.

[durable] or [fragile] appear randomly on weapons found or purchased,

others special abilities are as shown above the weapons in the charts.

to remove [poor] from a trial hammer, synth it and add it to a big bucks
hammer, or synth both and then add the big bucks synth to another weapon
before adding the trial hammer synth.

adding [quench], [thirst], [heal] or [drain] will similarly make them

permanent on a weapon and any weapon built up from them. placing a synth
of the opposite ability on the weapon will disable both abilities, but when
the synth is upgraded into the weapon, the first one applied will reappear.
however, adding [drain] to one of xiao's weapons before building it to
angel shooter will permanently disable both [heal] and [drain] from it and
ange gear. similarly, adding [quench] to crystal knife, or adding [heal] to
bone rapier or evilcise, will disable the opposing abilities when built up
to sand breaker or drain seeker and any weapons built up from them. these
disabilities won't remain if a synth is made, it can be used normally.

===============================================================================

minimum stats for dark cloud weapons:

note: it is not necessary to meet max whp, en & sp requirements for a build-up.
max whp, en & sp automatically go up to the minimum for the new weapon.
if above the minimum, they will not go down after build-up.
abs will automatically go up or down to the new minimum.

note for mardans: stats shown are "expected" minimums appearing red until met.
however, the mardan swords will only build up by catching garayans,
they will still build up with all stats as low as zero
( except max whp & att which will never go below 1 ).
