    • However, we designed the new Blackstar weapons in a way that still preserves the values of weapons which already existed in the game. You can achieve growth by either enhancing your old weapons through Caphras enhancements, or by obtaining and enhancing the new Blackstar weapons.

    • To start this quest, you need to have the “Remnants of the Rift” item and the knowledge of “The Three Legendary Blacksmiths of Mediah.”
    • The Remnants of the Rift can be obtained at a low chance by defeating a boss from the Dark Rift.
    • You can obtain the knowledge of “The Three Legendary Blacksmiths of Mediah” by obtaining and completing “The Three Blacksmiths” quest from Tulem, after you complete the renewed Mediah Main quests once you reach Lv. 56 or higher. Adventurers who have already completed these quests can obtain it by talking to Tulem.
    • The [Blackstar Weapon] quests can only be completed once per character.
    • During the quests, you will be able to choose between battling the boss at its full strength, or fighting a weakened version of the boss.

      • Giant Mudster, Dim Tree Spirit, Red Nose, Dastard Bheg, Katzvariak, Khalk, and Blue Whale will drop Mass of Pure Magic at a certain rate.
      • It drops when defeating monsters and gathering, at a low rate (exceptions: water scooping, digging in the desert, and milking cows).
      • You can exchange Destructive Illusion x15 for Mass of Pure Magic x1 via O’Arma, an Ahib who can be found at Star’s End.
