Welcome to my first game FAQ! The purpose of this guide is
to help readers with forging & finding rare and special
items. The two mechanics – finding & forging - are closely
intertwined, as knowing which places to station your most
intelligent officers (INT 70+) will go a long way towards
expediting the retrieval of materials used to forge.

(For a comprehensive list of items received for fighting in
Legendra's 13 caverns, please see my “Cave Raiding Guide”
- also on GameFAQs!)

Currently, this is the most complete list of forged items
on the web that I am aware of. As of this moment, I truly
believe I have made every possible item, but I strongly
urge you to continue experimenting on your own, as I will
continue to, in hopes that some other deeply-buried secrets
await our discovery. If nothing else, there may be other
alternate methods for making certain items, in addition to
the ones listed within.

===========================================================
*Protip* Quickly & easily verify if 3 items can be combined
by following this formula:

1. note how many weeks your advisor says research will
require, and cancel the operation when asked to begin.

2. try the exact same combination 2-4 more times, canceling
each time. If the number of weeks wasn't the same for all
tries, then the attempt will fail. Otherwise, congrats:
you're getting something!

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

Time is precious; yours is just as precious as mine. Thus,
this FAQ's aim is to be direct and practical, NOT complete
and comprehensive. For example: I won't waste our time
showing where to find knives and bandit crests... cuz they
SUCK! This is strictly about how to make the best stuff, and
where to find them. No more; no less.

“Hold on to your butts.”

***REMEMBER: generals must have INT of 70 or higher to search.
If their base INT, before item boosts, is < 70, they will
need to be stationed with at least one officer with a base
INT of 70 in order to find anything. Huge thanks to user
RPKierstan for the tip!***

The following list doesn't detail every item, or every
possible location to obtain them. It does, however, reveal
locations where they tend to appear frequently, regardless
of the ruler the player is using. (Again: only listing the
best items, and/or those that can be used to forge.)

It may help to station several high-INT officers in the
same castle if you want a specific item, as each may find
something on the same turn. To quickly amass a stockpile
of astea statues, for instance, leave several high-INT
generals in castles like Shuujiu, Kale, and Alta.

Hopefully, this guide has helped you maximize your time
in Legendra. The addition of a smithy mechanic brings a
fresh element into the old Dragon Force formula, and its
unfortunate that it has yet to be elaborated on in another
sequel. Unless I should stumble upon something new or
noteworthy, this guide can be considered complete as-is.

Accuracy is important; notifying me of any typos spotted
in the FAQ would be much appreciated. I'm also open to
suggestions, comments, cookies, and criticisms.
(Cookies especially.)

This guide probably would not have come to be – at least
not from me – had FaustWolf, Turbo857, Sixfortyfive, and all
the good people at Verve Fanworks not come together to
provide the game's translation. If you have a moment, and
have enjoyed the game as much as I, please take the time to
drop by their forums or youtube channel and say thanks!

*Special thanks goes out to Gamefaqs user RPKierstan, who
informed me that characters with a base INT < 70 won't be
able to item search unless someone with naturally-high INT
is stationed in the same location, even with a civics tome.

For helping more people to experience this great game the
way it was meant to be, I thank them. For taking the time to
read this guide, I thank you. And for all of us simply being
here to take part in all this mumbo gumbo, I thank Life.

                           Later!
