Any ideas where this item comes from and what it does specificly to a weapon ( as in how much attack could it add ).

People have been saying all over to NOT USE THIS ON PLAYER CRAFTED ITEMS. You didn't listen. Using them on gloves is about the dumbest thing I've heard, since they can be raised without NC. Put them on Vinland gear or General's Cloaks, uber items that can't be improved any other way.
And pay attention to the warnings, don't go crazy with them.

These tools can improve safely up to 60 times, from THE BASE stat of the item. If the base stat of an items is 40 and you normally reimprove it up to 100, using the tools will break it. Diferent is legendary weapons and general cloacks, that base stats are much higher. Of course, after around 60 improves even that stuff can easily broke

@Chester
You make a lot of assertion then jump to the conclusion that using armoursmith tools on gloves is a dumb move. Your ignorance suggests to me that you know nothing about gloves, except the alchemy produced ones.
Just a reminder, next time you feel like calling a person dumb, don't put yourself in that position.
Wrought Iron Wrist Armour. Dumbass.

Well seeing a pop up message saying that the item may break and even so click ok button and then get mad that your item was broken is indeed stupidity, you deserved it, now shut up and go make or buy other gloves.

ReaD02-18-2013
fool hand got like 12 base armor..
yer trying to do from 65(12+43)-80(12+58) which is not a base armor..
glove that kinda have nice base armor is
Dux Gloves
this armorsmith will count those crafted armor increases as the same as when you using em...
the formula to use this?
from base armor
1-31 -> no msg
32-51 -> ""may not be able to be improved. perform improve anyway?
52 onward -> attempts to improve "" any further may cause it to break. Improve anyway?
yer already +43 and yer do reach +58...er?
from 52 is when things tends to get weird...there is 4 things maybe
1-thing will be poof
2-defence will -1 instead of +1
3-defence will do nothing(not sure)
4-success in +1
heard rumour/proof that the safest till the poof rate went rapidly increase started from +61 onward...but...poof item will be started from +52 onwards...even the rate is super low...some tend to get rotten luck on doing it..

Ok so NM/CJ finally appologized let's hope they will not just work on cannons while forgetting about weapons and armors.
I mean +50 defense on 4 body equipments is +200 defense total & +50 on existing 100 attack weapons... That's just OP... If they don't do something about the already over-improved gears then put weapon/armour forging tools back on NC so we can all catch up (note: does not work on cannons as 2 shot ko is not catching up is just killing gameplay).

"FCV 4/4, 1363 durability, R19 evasion, DS protection got instant death by a 2-combo that hits 1363 damage, none of the shots from the two players are critical shots. My personal opinion is that it's a really big call, especially one of the players is using DS guns."

I have to say it FAST and I have to say it NOW. Before protest begins and before they take down this tool, buy and use it NOW. Future maritime will be defined by DECK BATTLE, armours and weapons will be of MOST IMPORTANCE! So what are you waiting for?

Oh, I don't know, maybe for them to put these in the NC shop? They were removed days ago.

Would be nice if this item can be farmed/plundered, thus making fighting NPC easier while everyone still on a leveled playground.

Lena

People only care about npcs. Thats the problem of this game, including gms. They forget about the consequences in pvp.

Jafar
04-19-2013
yes... these tools arent needed against npcs, and when a npc is particullary strong... make a fleet!
But in pvp... anyone that "needs" OP items will never be a good player, and only only ruin others experience

Steward
04-19-2013
Jafar,
But you have to admit it, in pvp, the one with OP items will pwn the ones without (assuming same skills), and can DB the one without over and over until everything is stripped off. That is exactly why people want those OP gears, gears for bullying. Who doesn't like bullying/farming enemy to death? :D
For NPC, yes, fleeting is a great option, but there are a lot of shy people out there who always prefer soloing/multi-ing in order to prove "I am better than others, i don't need friends". For them OP gear might be useful.

Maria

Too bad they had these in the game for a while then took them out...Unfortunately they didn't reset the stats gained from them and refund the NC so you have ppl running around with gear that impossible to achieve or compete with I.E. God Gear.

UWO Reserve Bank sell ducats/ships/characters at the 2nd rate of $1=85m, whereas rolegold sell ducats only at the ridiculous rate $1=38m. Rolegolders are bankrupt and kill time here by bickering over their failure and over cooking their slanders:)

Sylvia

Does anyone already played any of OGPlanet games? They seem to have loads of games, but havent saw any from a mid/big publisher like koei among their titles, visited their forums and didnt like it, saw loads of unatended spams of some guy posting what suposed to be links to watch football and basketball games but that are probably virus, dunno if uwo will have a bright future with OGPlanet, i just wish them the best of luck.

Dont over pay for god gear. You may notice a bunch of forged items for sale on OG marketplace. It is not a coincidence. The OG shoppe will be reintroducing these items permantly to coincide with the 2nd Age release coming soon. On other servers that are more advanced then ours these items remain in cash shop. Dont waste billions now when you can soon buy your own tools for cash and even ducats from others. The god gear users have had there run, dont let them make money off you now so they can just rebuy items when prices drops.

Francine

Those who oppose to bring back the forging tools pretend to worry about the game balance. They just want to keep their advantage.

Nina
12-31-2013
You can oppose what you want. It goes with thr storyline made by Koei. Its not a question of will they be back but of when. Most of the current sellers of these forged gears as well as most the oroginal owners know about the storyline. Thjs is why they knew to buy them all in the first place. Forging tools WILL be back come 2nd Age release.

Buying power from nc shop
Forging unplunderable/obtainable equips
Some tools cant be obtained via gameplay
All these signs are of a pay to win game
1, if an item bought in item shop can never ever be obtained via gamplay its p2w
2, if an item bought in item shop brings you power and strength that its not obtainable in gameplay its p2w
3, appearance of gamble box its p2w
Im not worried about game balance
Who gives a fuck?

Im concerned that OGP doesnt seem motivated as well as NM was.
They has removed TB and stopped supllying highend ships and DSS/DGS.
No exp/prof bonus event has been held yet.
They even look as if they are willing to lose the chance to gain profit.
Honestly, I doubt the tools can really be back in 2nd age.

Dongwoo
12-31-2013
Games that let you buy
better gear or allow you to
make better items then
everyone else at a faster
rate and then makes the
game largely unbalanced
even for people who have
skill in the game without
paying.
Dude, you've spent like
400 bucks on this game so
you can beat everyone who
hasn't spent any money.
Pay-to-win noob!

Free to play. Pay to win. Not my fault your poor irl and in game. Ill hav a nice set once tools are released since i have tons of cheques to spend on forged gear since i am not a noob and have been anticipating the return of these items.

If everything can be played on the same leveled field and the game remains free with no NC/OG shops, it will be hard for OGPlanet to earn their income. All these improvement tools, like all the other NC/OG items are obviously OP so that it allows a player to remove "balance" and secure a win more easily against those who prefer a free game. All NC/OG items are OP if you think about it. You can have a very good ship with very good stats, ship skills and slots on the ship and you don't need a lot of levels to use it. All you do is pay real money for it. For players who prefer to play for free, they have to grind extremely hard to get enough resources to build their own ships of a lousier variant than those who simply pay for it. How is this fair to those at all to those who are playing for free. If everything is so unfair, might as well remove and make disappear every single NC/OG item in game forever. That way everything will be plain fair for everyone. There are boost NC/OG items to boost stats and levels as well as to make proficiency and skill gains more efficient and to bypass game limitations. How is that fair ? I doubt there is such thing as fair at all. One person's view of fair is another person's view of unfair.

Guilder12-31-2013
Adding to Ming Mei's above statement: Seems pretty fair to me that if people decide to spend money on keeping a relatively obscure, under-appreciated game in business, they ought to get some sort of compensation for their troubles. Otherwise, what motivation do they have to invest in the game at all? Devotion to something they enjoy? Not very many folks would be that altruistic, myself included.
And if you can show me a single MMO that doesn't follow the model of "people that buy our cash items will have some sort of advantage over those who don't", I'll be... amused, because there's still going to be the 'unfair' advantage of those who've played and reached certain levels of power, versus those just starting out. (Or do you believe a 1/1/1 player wearing uber EQ could seriously trump a 75/75/75 player with maxed finesse and battle skills?)
But yeah, OGP forums would be a better place to discuss this, so the folks running the game right now could hear a different side of the "UNFAIR!" argument. Hm... *vanishes back into the digital mists*

Yea, I hear Super Mario Brothers doesn't have deck or forged weapons. You should check it out. Or... If you are that upset go to Korea and apply to work for Koei and change. Get used to it or get a new game to play.............

Steward
12-31-2013
Game balance just doesn't mean shit to you does it? I don't understand how KOEI can put so much thought into balancing this game, then turn around and break it so totally with p2w items.
Make it easier or faster to grind levels and skills, idc. Make ships 50% faster with items, i start to care a little but i'll get over it. Make it to where I can't properly defend myself against somebody who spends $100's of USD on this game, I'll go find something else to do.
These kinds of items are a death sentence to any game. I don't even like how NC ships are better than their normal variants, they should have reduced level requirements, maybe 1 or 2 more improvement slots and that's it, base stats on the ship should be identical to non-astro/nc versions.

How do you know if a ship from the NC/OG shop is better than those from the default free in-game variants ? Go to the 'Ship' segment of this wiki and look it up. Compare Frigate and a Modified Frigate. A Frigate has 3 broadside, 0 Bow and 1 Stern slot for cannons. A Modified Frigate (NC/OG item) has 5 BROADSIDE SLOTS, 1 bow and 0 stern turret. A free ship that's default in game comes with 3 broad side cannon slots and you pay some money .... wow .... 5 broadside cannon slots. Let's say I mount Master's Cannon (16) on both ships. I could theoretically mount 48 M.Cannon.16 on a normal Frigate and 80 M.Cannon.16 on a paid Modified Frigate. I have not take into account the cannon limitations on both ships and other limitations. 80 cannons vs 48 cannons. 5 cannon slots vs 3 cannon slots. You know what I mean ? Look at other ships. Not just stats and skills and user requirements but their ship parts slots and the amount of sailors and cargo and all other stats.

Start storing your astros and prepare those will be back full power on the cash shop, unfortunately this is the easiest solution to the unbalance problems that were brought by the temporary sales of these items back then.......to remove every forged gear and canons to destroy em would require too much trouble to the GMs, and OGPlanet is cleary short handed, so the easiest solution to bring back balance and as a bonus earn some money is bringing back the tools to the shop so everyone can have their god gear and cannons....happy new year!!!!

Few things to note:
1) They are NOT tradeable till the next patch.
2) They will improve up to +15 defence power from their base power, each use adds +1.
I wish they didn't nerfed it... :x
Guilder03-09-2017
No nerfing would've been preferable to me as well. But just seeing them and their weapon boosting cousins back after all this time is pretty heartening.
