Arc the Lad 3 - Item FAQ Created by Andrew Nelson Made: July 22, 2002 Revised: March 26, 2003 RnLinkinpark@AOL.com AIM : RnLinkinpark Table of Contents ----------------------- 1 - Introduction 2 - The List 2.1 - Items 2.2 - Weapons 2.3 - Armor 2.4 - Accessories 2.5 - Synthesis Items 3 - Shops 4 - Synthesis Tricks 5 - Disclaimer 6 - Credits ######### ############# 1 - INTRODUCTION ############# ###### I created this list because of the shear number of items and the small number of FAQS written about it. I had a hell-of-a-time finding all the combonations, so I thought I would make it easier for other people. Hope you like it and have fun with synthesis! ######### ############# 2 - THE LIST ############# ###### Here it is. I have spent a lot of time creating this list. Hopefully it helps. -------------------------- --Some things to know...-------------- -Point 1 "( )" means that the item inside the marks can replace the item before it. Here's an example: Hybrid Magic Apple Magic Apple Tem's Root (Magic Apple) This means that the Hybrid Magic Apple can be created by using a Magic Apple and a Tem's Root, or 2 Magic Apples. Get it? -Point 2 Another thing to remember, some items may be mentioned in combinations more then twice. This just means that you can use only two of them, but not the last one or two. Here is another example: Antipersonnel Bomb Big Bomb Light Alloy (Tem's Root, Big Bomb) Tem's Root (Light Alloy, Big Bomb) As you can see, the Big Bomb is on here three times. Since it can only be used twice, you have to use something else. Valid combinations would be: Big Bomb, Light Alloy, Tem's Root Big Bomb, Big Bomb, Light Alloy Big Bomb, Big BOmb, Light Alloy An invalid combination would be: Big Bomb, Big Bomb, Big Bomb -Point 3 "(Double it)" means that you can use that item twice in place of any of the following items, but you can only use two of it. -Point 4 If there is ever a mix-up with a synthesis, it will create a useless item. That item is based on what you have in the first slot. These outcomes are marked and tell how they are made. -------------------------------------- -------------------------- Now that that is over, on to the LIST! ====================== 2.1 Items ====================== Vigor Seed - Cure ally of Poison Harmony Needle - Cure ally of Silence Gravity Nut - Cure ally of Gravity Mint - Cure ally of Sleep Memory Plant - Cure ally of Confusion Power Jelly - Cure ally of Hemo-ji condition Rue's Medicine - Cure ally of Paralysis Recovery Tonic - Resurrect fallen ally General Tonic - Cure ally of most abnormal states Vigor Seed (Double it) Harmony Needle (Double it) Gravity Nut (Double it) Mint (Double it) Memory Plant (Double it) Rue's Medicine (Double it) Super General Tonic - Cure all allies of most abnormal states General Tonic (Rad's Reagent) Rad's Reagent (General Tonic) Dead Bud - Recover one frickin' HP Created from mix-ups with items Herb - Recovers 50 HP Amazing Herb - Recovers 100 HP Herb (Tem's Root) Tem's Root (Herb) Super Amazing Herb - Recovers 200 HP Amazing Herb Tem's Root (Amazing Herb) Potent Herb - Recovers 150 HP of nearby allies Amazing Herb Rad's Reagent Super Potent Herb - Fully recover nearby allies' HP Potent Herb Rad's Reagent (Potent Herb) Apple Extract - Recover just one MP Created from mix-ups with all items Magic Apple - Recovers 50 MP Hybrid Magic Apple - Recovers 100 MP Magic Apple Tem's Root (Magic Apple) Red Apple - Recovers 200 MP Hybrid Magic Apple Tem's Root (Hybrid Magic Apple) Super Potent Apple - Recovers 150 MP of nearby allies Hybrid Magic Apple Rad's Reagent Hyper Apple - Fully recovers nearby allies' MP Super Potent Apple Rad's Reagent (Super Potent Apple) Life Nut - Increases Maximum HP by 20 Points Ambrosia - Increases Maximum HP by 50 Points Life Nut Tem's Root (Life Nut) Magic Power Nut - Increases Maximum MP by 20 Points Elixer Nut - Increases Maximum MP by 50 Points Magic Power Nut Tem's Root (Magic Power Nut) Strength Nut - Increases ATK by 5 Points Reco Pod - Increases DEF by 5 Points Magic Sprig - Increases MAG by 5 Points Palo Nut - Increases AGL by 5 Points Violet Fruit - MOV up 1 point, Maximum is 7 Potent Violet Fruit - MOV up 2 points, Maximum is 7 Vitality Fruit - Level goes up 1 God's Nectar Fruit - Raises 4 stats 3 points each Bomb - Explosion damages nearby enemies Big Bomb - Bomb becomes able to reach far away Bomb Rad's Reagent (Bomb) Antipersonnel Bomb - Bomb inflicts damage within wide range Big Bomb Light Alloy (Tem's Root, Big Bomb) Tem's Root (Light Alloy, Big Bomb) Rocket Bomb - Bomb with the highest level of strength Antipersonnel Bomb (Tough Alloy) Tough Alloy (Inferno Powder) Inferno Powder (Antipersonnel Bomb) Life Fruit - Converts half of current HP into MP Soul Herb - Converts half of current MP into HP ====================== 2.2 Weapons ====================== Blunt Sword - Rusted old sword Created from mix-ups with all Swords ATK +1 Bronze Sword - Sword made of bronze ATK +2 Iron Sword - Sword made of iron ATK +6 Steel Sword - Sword made of tempered steel ATK +11 Silver Sword - Silver sword, made by synthesis Steel Sword (Shimmer Stone) ATK +17 Shimmer Stone (Steel Sword) Platinum Sword - Sword made of platinum ATK +24 AGL +1 Crystal Sword - Sword made of crystal ATK +32 AGL +3 Alloy Blade - Made with a new synthesis technique Platinum Sword (Light Alloy) ATK +36 Light Alloy (Tough Alloy) AGL +5 Tough Alloy (Light Alloy) Rune Sword - Mysterious sword that increases MAG Platinum Sword (Mysterious Ore) ATK +40 Mysterious Ore (Platinum Sword) MAG +7 Firangi - Sword with Fire Attribute Platinum Sword (Flame Fragment) ATK +28 Flame Fragment (Hybrid Magic Apple) MAG +3 Hybrid Magic Apple (Flame Fragment) Ice Saber - Sword with Water Attribute Platinum Sword (Water Fragment) ATK +28 Water Fragment (Hybrid Magic Apple) MAG +3 Hybrid Magic Apple (Water Fragment) Earth Blade - Sword with Earth Attribute Platinum Sword (Earth Fragment) ATK +25 Earth Fragment (Hybrid Magic Apple) DEF +3 Hybrid Magic Apple (Earth Fragment) MAG +3 Storm Sword - Sword with Wind Attribute Platinum Sword (Wind Fragment) ATK +25 Wind Fragment (Hybrid Magic Apple) DEF +3 Hybrid Magic Apple (Wind Fragment) MAG +3 Ray Sword - Sword with Light Attribute Platinum Sword (Light Fragment) ATK +22 Light Fragment (Hybrid Magic Apple) DEF +3 Hybrid Magic Apple (Light Fragment) AGL +3 MAG +3 Diablo Edge - Sword with Dark Attribute Platinum Sword (Dark Fragment) ATK +22 Dark Fragment (Hybrid Magic Apple) DEF +3 Hybrid Magic Apple (Dark Fragment) AGL +3 MAG +3 Mystic Sword - Sword that greatly increases MAG Alloy Blade (Magic Sprig) ATK +45 Magic Sprig (Alloy Blade) MAG +20 Gorgeous Ring - Anrietta's pride.

The list below will help you create some items earlier then you really should have them. -------------------------- --Some things to know...-------------- The Danger Dome comes in handy at this part in the game. Since you can't but platinum stuff yet, you can go there and wager your lower class armor for a better class one. Just keep doing that until you get what you need. Weapons: Bronze -> Iron -> Steel -> Silver -> Platinum -> Crystal Armor : Lvl 1 -> Lvl 2 -> Lvl 3 -> Platinum Need some extra cash for your experiments? Well, mixing a Platinum Armor with a Shimmer Stone makes a Shining Armor, which can be sold for 30000G!! That will fill up your wallet real fast. If you run low on Shimmer Stones, they can be purchased at the casino for some chips, or wager a Rocket Bomb at the Danger Dome. Rocket Bombs can be gained by wagering a Bomb for a Big Bomb, a Big Bomb for a Antipersonnel Bomb, and that for the Rocket Bomb. Phew! All of the following items are listed by whether you can get it in "North Sularto" in Disc One or "Later in the Game" Later in the Game technically means when you are able to get items previously unfound. They are seperated because people like to get all the high power stuff as fast as possible, and North Sularto just happens to be that place. -------------------------------------- -------------------------- - - N O R T H S U L A R T O - - Sol Spear --------------- Need: Harmony Needle - x4 Rue's Medicine - x2 Synthesis Chain: (Harmony Needle x2 + Rue's Medicine = Card Trident) x 2 Card Trident x2 = Sol Spear Miracle Robe --------------- Need: Herb - x8 Platinum Robe - x1 Synthesis Chain: (Herb x2 = Amazing Herb) x 4 (Amazing Herb x2 = Super Amazing Herb) x 2 Super Amazing Herb x2 + Platinum Robe = Miracle Robe Mystery Armor --------------- Need: Platinum Armor - x2 Super Amazing Herb x2 Synthesis Chain: Platinum Armor x2 = Rune Armor Rune Armor + Super Amazing Herb x2 = Mystery Armor Palo's Knife --------------- Need: Platinum Knife - x4 Synthesis Chain: (Platinum Knife x2 = Rune Dagger) x 2 Rune Dagger x2 = Palo's Knife Strongest Cane --------------- Need: Platinum Rod - x6 Shimmer Stone - x8 Synthesis Chain: (Platinum Rod + Shimmer Stone x2 = Rune Wand) x 4 (Rune Wand x2 = Magic Stick) x 2 Magic Stick x2 = Tohroo Stick Tohroo Stick + Platinum Rod x2 = Strongest Cane Life Stealer --------------- Need: Flame Fragment - x2 Water Fragment - x2 Earth Fragment - x2 Wind Fragment - x2 Light Fragment - x2 Dark Fragment - x2 Synthesis Chain: (Elemental Fragment x2 = Elemental Blade) x 6 //with all fragments All Elemental Blades x6 = Life Stealer Sniper Rifle --------------- Needs: Light Alloy - x8 Revolver - x4 Synthesis Chain: (Revolver + Light Alloy x2 = Peacemaker) x 4 (Peacemaker x2 = Hunter Rifle) x2 Hunter Rifle x2 = Sniper Rifle Genocider --------------- Needs: Tough Alloy - x2 Big Bomb - x2 Synthesis Chain Tough Alloy x2 = Rocket Launcher Rocket Launcer + Big Bomb x2 = Genocider Mystic Sword --------------- Needs: Light Alloy - x4 Tough Alloy - x2 Synthesis Chain: (Light Alloy x2 + Tough Alloy = Alloy Blade) x 2 Alloy Blade x2 = Mystic Sword Shadow Stitcher --------------- Needs: Power Jelly - x2 Crystal Knife - x2 Synthesis Chain: Power Jelly x2 + Crystal Knife = Shadow Stitcher Super Potent Herb --------------- Need: Herb - x4 Rad's Reagent - x2 Synthesis Chain: (Herb x2 = Amazing Herb) x 2 (Amazing Herb + Rad's Reagent = Potent Herb) x 2 Potent Herb x2 = Super Potent Herb Hyper Apple --------------- Need: Magic Apple - x4 Rad's Reagent - x2 Synthesis Chain: (Magic Apple x2 = Hybrid Magic Apple) x 2 (Hybrid Magic Apple + Rad's Reagent = Super Potent Apple) x 2 Super Potent Apple x2 = Hyper Apple Firangi (and other elemental Swords) --------------- Need: Magic Apple - x2 Elemental Fragment x2 (must be alike attribute) Synthesis Chain: Magic Apple x2 = Hybrid Magic Apple Elemental Fragment x2 = Hybrid Magic Apple = Elemental Sword Treasure Vest --------------- Needs: Pltnum Breastplate x2 Palo Nut - x1 Synthesis Chain: Pltnum Breastplate x2 + Palo Nut = Treasure Vest Lucky Vest --------------- Needs: Silver Breastplate x2 Vitality Fruit - x1 Synthesis Chain: Silver Breastplate x2 + Vitality Fruit = Lucky Vest Any Anti-Status Accessory --------------- Status Recovery Item x2 = Anti-Status Accessory - - L A T E R I N T H E G A M E - - Lunar Blaster --------------- Needs: Sniper Rifle - x2 (shown above) Mysterious Ore - x1 Synthesis Chain: Sniper Rifle x2 + Mysterious Ore = Lunar Blaster ######### ############# 5 - DISCLAIMER ############# ###### This FAQ (C)2002 Andrew Nelson.
