This is achieved by talking to King Trode on the boat after defeating Khalamari. Once you recieve it you will be able to access it via the Misc. section of the main menu. Use of the Alchemy Pot is as easy as choosing 2(or 3 after the Pot is upgraded) items from your inventory and sticking them in the pot. It will tell you if you have a good combination. You must then leave your inventory and walk around for a bit. Once you hear the "ding" go back to the Alchemy Pot menu and your item will be finished. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2-01 Sword List +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Bronze Knife + Bronze Knife = Copper Sword Who can equip: Hero, Jessica / Sell price: $135 / Attack Power +13 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Liquid Metal Sword + Mystifying Mixture + Cowpat = Rusty Old Sword Who can equip: Hero, Jessica / Sell price: Not sellable / Attack Power +45 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Templar's Sword + Holy Talisman = Holy Silver Rapier Who can equip: Angelo / Sell price: $3,300 / Attack Power +54 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Falcon Blade + Meteorite Bracer = Uber Falcon Blade Who can equip: Hero, Jessica, Angelo / Sell price: $25,000 / Attack Power +55 / Attack 2x per round. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Holy Silver Rapier + Devil's Tail + Wing of Bat = Fallen Angel Rapier Who can equip: Angelo / Sell price: $8,500 / Attack Power +61 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Zombiesbane + Holy Talisman = Zombie Slayer Who can equip: Hero / Sell price: $10,000 / Attack Power +65 Effective against Zombie family monsters. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Uber Double-Edge + Devil's Tail = Double-Edged Sword Who can equip: Hero, Jessica / Sell price: $2,500 / Attack Power +76 Cursed.

A: You will obtain the Alchemy Pot by following the main quest up until the point when you take the boat from Port Prospect after defeating Khalamari. Talk to King Trode on the boat and he will give you the pot. Q: How do I use the Pot? A: It is accessible from the "MISC" section of the main menu. Alternatively, you can push SELECT to bring up the battle Records menu, choose Alchemy Recipies and then press the CONFIRM button on any recipie and it will take you straight to the Alchemy Pot screen. Q: How long does it take for the recipies to finish? A: A little while. ^_^ If you need the item right away you can just run against the wall for a few minutes and listen for the ding. Time won't count unless you're moving. Q: When do I get my new Pot? A: The Alchemy Pot will get an upgrade after you finish the events in Pickham. Q: Where do I find (Insert Item Here)? A: I will be adding a section detailing the locations of some of the more hard to find Ingredients soon. Stay tuned. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3-02 FAQ Credits +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This FAQ wouldn't have been possible without the work of fellow contributer Red Scarlet.
