Key information
Random equipment upgrading in Ragnarok: The New World often depletes valuable resources without granting significant stat bonuses. Gamebrott reports that careful planning and strategy are required to prevent wasting Zeny and materials while enhancing character strength in Rune Midgard.
Players can regularly purchase basic forging materials from the Guild Shop using Merit and from the Points Shop using Arena Coin, Park Coin, and Blind Box Coin. These shop stocks reset weekly, allowing adventurers to secure steady weekly supplies without spending real money.
For advanced requirements, acquiring Enriched Oridecon or Enriched Elunium via Trade is the fastest option for those with sufficient Zeny. Additionally, purchasing ready-made materials through Trade is recommended when equipment reaches around plus ten or higher to save collection time.
To prevent consecutive failures during forging, players should utilize Basic or Intermediate Weapon and Armor Meteoric Iron to significantly raise success rates. Furthermore, hunting for free Oridecon and Elunium using Low-Level Treasure Maps and claiming seasonal event rewards provide extra materials.
