Guide How To Craft Ascended Weapons

How to Craft Ascended Weapons

 

In this guide we present to you how to go about crafting an Ascended weapon. In this example, we demonstrate how to construct a sword.

First and foremost, you're going to need to be 500 in crafting disciplines in order to complete the construction. You can find our crafting guides across the navigation menu.

Constructing an Ascended weapon works no differently to that of any other, you simply need 4 components: 1 inscription, 2 parts and a unique material. In most instances the recipes for Ascended weapons (and inscriptions) can be purchased from the appropriate vendor, though they will cost you around 3 gold and some laurels.

 

Unlike traditional approaches to crafting, the refinement of materials to forge Ascended weapons is quite length and there are significant quantities of materials involved. To make things easier, we've summarized in a table below what each process requires in terms of raw materials, how to refine it and what it actually takes to refine it. I would like to thank @thevalliants for his amazing job over on the excellent Dragon Season, for being kind enough to let us use it (it really is a life saver!).

Please be aware that some of the items needed will cost you skill points and karma (for the Obsidian Shards) so be sure to have banked enough.

• Refining Ectoplasms is limited to a 24 hour timer, allowing only 1 refinement per day, per account. 
• Obsidian Refinements can be undertaken at any time but the refined materials are account bound and therefore cannot be sold or traded. 
• Ascended Quality items are, similarly to the above are also account bound, however “Common Materials” can be traded.

Crafting The Weapon

Simply follow the corresponding colors in the image below. Please notethat you will need to salvage (for the Inscription) the appropriate exotic weapon, based on the attributes you want your weapon to have. In addition, there are minor variances to the recipes of each Ascended weapon with the image below only showing the process for the Angchu Blade.
