→ Lineage 2: weapon exchange

Until recently, mammon in L2 played an important role in the life of every player. After the 7 Seals quest was canceled as unnecessary, players were able to easily find a merchant and a blacksmith in cities.

In earlier chronicles, the appearance of mamons in L2 was eagerly awaited, since only from them it was possible to buy rare items, print armor and insert sa. If there was a week of struggle on the server, then the week turned into long days of waiting when you could finally put on your set or insert it into your weapon.

How to change weapons?

In L2, the blacksmith Mamon performs quite a few functions, and one of them is the exchange of weapons. In lineage 2, only a blacksmith can exchange weapons, but to do this, he must give his own. With the advent of the Chronicles of Grace Finale and the expansion of the assortment in the store in Lineage 2, the exchange of weapons became unnecessary, since all weapons that could only be obtained from Mammon now became available in the store.

In L2, you can bring weapons of grade C and D to the blacksmith Mamon for exchange; the weapon must be in your inventory, then you will see what the blacksmith can offer you in return. In Lineage 2, you can exchange weapons even with a point, while the point of the received weapon is retained. For example, in L2 you give Dark Screamer +6 to the blacksmith of mammon, and in return you receive Homunculus Sword +6. If the blacksmith Mamon in L2 upgrades his weapon, for example, from D to C, then the point is not saved. To increase the level of a weapon, the blacksmith needs to pay some more amount of old adena, which can be obtained from the priest or bought on the market. To get top C weapons you had to spend a lot of old adena. On the chronicles of lineage 2 chronicles C4 and Interlude there was an exchange of weapons the only way get guns such as Orish Poleaxe, Samurai Longsword, Eminence Bow, Homunculus Sword and others.

Other functions of mamons

In L2, only the blacksmith Mamon can insert sa into weapons of grade A and S; for his work he will take some A or S gems, depending on the weapon. You can buy gemstones from a merchant, who also randomly moves around necropolises, like a blacksmith through katas. Gemstones are also needed for crafting, so on victory days everyone is looking for the merchant, since most players want to try to craft their own jewelry, armor or weapons.

You will need

  • - Internet connection;
  • - installed Lineage 2 client;
  • - account on the official server;
  • - character on the account.

Instructions

Start your search for the "Blacksmith of Mammon" in "Gludin Village". Move into it through the teleport system. From the “Portal Keeper”, go down the steps and head west until you hit a wall. On the left will be the “Dark Elf Guild”. Turn left 90°. Follow the wall until you see the Smuggler of Mammon NPC. If the Blacksmith of Mammon is not nearby, continue your search.

Travel to the city of Gludio. From the "Portal Guardian", go up the stairs to the "Temple of Einhasad". Approach the main entrance. Go around the building on the right side. The "Blacksmith of Mammon", if there is one in the city, will be located behind the temple.

Teleport to Dion. Follow the nearest (west) gate. When entering the city, turn right and go behind the nearest building. If "Blacksmith of Mammon" is in "Dion", you will see him.

Travel to Giran. Cross diagonally across the town square. Turn into the arch that opens the passage to the gate. Immediately behind the arch there is a staircase. To the right of it is a place where you can find the required NPC.

Fly to Hein. This city can be divided into five zones: one central and four peripheral. All of them are connected by bridges. Go to the northeast zone, to the northernmost part. Check to see if the Blacksmith of Mammon is there.

From "Hein" via "Giran" go to "Aden". Go down the steps to the central square. Cross it and exit the northern archway. Without going down the stairs, turn right. There will be a narrow passage between the building wall and the curb. Following it, go around the corner of the building. You will see the NPC "Smuggler of Mammon". The blacksmith, if he is in Aden, will be nearby.

Go to the Hunter's Village. Take one of the suspension bridges through the gorge to the peripheral part of the village (there are guild buildings there). Go to the "Dark Elf Guild". The required NPC may be located to the right of the building.

Move to Oren. From the “Keeper of the Portal”, going around the warehouse building on either side, go to the opposite part of the city (southwest corner). Check for the "Blacksmith of Mammon" at the narrow opening between the buildings next to the "Warriors Guild".

Teleport to the city of "Rune". While near the "Portal Guardian", turn south and, going around the nearest corner of the building on the right, exit the city along the road. Continue downhill towards the harbour. Almost reaching the harbor, you will see a small building on the left. The “Blacksmith of Mammon” usually appears next to him.

After Rune, visit Goddard and Schuttgart. These cities are very similar. Their structure is almost identical, only they are oriented to opposite sides of the world. “The Blacksmith of Mammon” appears in the leftmost part (when viewed from the temple) of the semi-ring formed by the space between the outer and inner city walls. In "Goddard" this place is next to the "Dark Elf Guild", and in "Schutgart" it is next to the "Orc Guild".

In general about mammonach I already wrote and, but I’ll go into more detail about how to print things A-grade(things are printed in the same way S-grade).

Blacksmith of Mammon (Mammon Blacksmith) appears in the catacombs (and Black Market Trader of Mammon- in necropolises). The easiest way to find him is by asking in the general chat !ALL V Town of Giran- or if you follow the messages in the hero channel (hero chat), which are written in a noticeable bright blue color - usually on all servers they voice his location.

So, having found a blacksmith, at the beginning of a conversation with him the following menu appears:

Because I'll print it out Tallum Heavy Armor which refers to things A-grade, then you need to select the second item accordingly - A-grade. In the following menu:

the blacksmith suggests:

1. Craft A-graide dualsword (Craft A-grade duals)

2. Bestow special ability on A-grade (Add a special property to an A-grade weapon)

3. Release seal on A-grade armor (Remove the seal from A-grade armor)

4. Release seal on A-graide asccessory (Remove the seal from A-grade jewelry)

5. Reseal A-graide armor (Seal A-grade armor).

Why the last point is needed - I will explain below.

So I have Common Item: Seales Tallum set (set of Sealed Common Tallum item), so I choose option 3 - Remove the seal from A-grade armor, and in the next menu I see a list of A-grade things that I can get from what I have in my inventory:

Why 3 types of gloves and boots? Because sealed from 1 item Seales Tallum Boots You can choose from 1 of 3 types - boots for the heavy armor set, boots for the light armor set, boots for the magic set (robes). And that is why in the action selection menu at the beginning of the conversation there is an item:

5. Reseal A-grade armor (Seal A-grade armor).

That is, if you have boots of a light set, but you need a heavy one, then you first need to seal them - and then print them again, of a different type.

This is a simple way to remove the seal from any sealed items of grade A and S.

Who is it and what do they eat it with?

As you know, there are different types of mamons: Blacksmiths, Sellers and Monks. Here I will talk about the Trader of Mammon.

Master Tom, who is known to the dwarves firsthand, has a friend, Trader of Mammon, who loves to rush around the catacombs, forcing us to waste time and ah.. ugh, I almost said “adena”. No, he doesn’t need simple adena, give him “Ancient Adena” and “Blank Skroll”, but for it he can easily do the following things:

1. Printout of A Grade sets

Required, respectively, is the item and Ancent Adena.

2. Selling things. Available for sale:

Crystal Scroll: Enchant of all stripes (requires "Blank Skroll" and "Ancient Adena")
Gemstone A (only requires "Ancient Adena")
Blessed Scroll (only requires "Ancient Adena")
Crystals A Grade (only "Ancient Adena" required)
Tattoo inks (requires "Ancient Adena" only)

3. Make A Grade duals.

4. Exchange or upgrade weapons.

How to exchange or improve weapons

Weapon Exchange

The technology is simple. If you need to change a weapon of the same class, go to “weapon exchange” (be sure to put it in your inventory), first select yours and then change it to which one.
When exchanging Weapons, be sure to choose a weapon within the group (that is, change, for example, Saber - 1 group to Artisan's Sword 2 group. We will not be able to exchange weapons, this is done at the weapon improvement point)

Weapon Upgrade

Similarly, but a certain amount of "Ancient Adena" is required. That is, we go to “weapon improvement”, select ours, and then select a weapon from the next group (you cannot jump over a group - only one group higher).
For example, to get from Crystal Staff (6th group) - Sage Staff (8th group), change in the following order Crystal Staff (6) to Cursed Staff (7) then to Sage Staff (8).

Blacksmith of Mammon is a key blacksmith in Lineage II. Any actions related to items, such as removing and adding special abilities, removing the seal of chaos and bonds, production dual wielding high rank and much more can only be done with the help of an NPC called the Blacksmith of Mammon. Its unique feature is that it moves to a random and completely unpredictable location every 30 minutes. Thank goodness the Godness of Destruction update narrowed his favorite places to the largest cities. This article will introduce you to the most in a simple way the capture of this blacksmith.

It is best to start your search from the village of Gludin. You can get into it using a teleport system. From the portal keeper, go down the steps and move west exactly until the wall blocks your path. By left side the dark elf guild building should be located from it. Turn 90° to the left and move along this wall until you see an NPC named Smuggler of Mammon. If there is no one near him, continue your search.

Now teleport to the city of Gludio. Immediately after this, go up the stairs to the Einhasad Temple. Find the main entrance there and go around the building on the right side. The Blacksmith of Mammon should be located behind the temple. If it's not there, continue your search.

Next in line is the city of Dion. Immediately after the teleport, go to the gate closest to you. As soon as you enter the city, immediately turn to right side and go around the corner of the building. If the Blacksmith of Mammon you need is in Dion, you will see him right away, and if not, you will have to continue your search again.

Now Giran. Cross strictly diagonally across the main city square and turn into the arch, which will open the road to the northern gate. Immediately behind this arch there is a staircase, to the right of which is one of the favorite places of the character you need.

Now check out the town of Hein. It can be divided into five parts: the central and four adjacent outlying parts. Each zone is connected to its neighbors using bridges. You need to go to the northernmost part of the city. The same blacksmith should be in it.

If you've read this far, it means luck definitely doesn't like you. Now head to Aden through the city of Giran. From the teleport site, go down to the central square, then cross it and reach the northern arch. Now there will be another staircase, but do not go down it all the way, but turn about halfway to the right and go around the building closest to you. Now your reference is the smuggler of Mammon. If there is no blacksmith near him, continue your search.

Next stop is the hunters' village. Go along one of the bridges to the outskirts of the village (numerous guild buildings will be your landmark). The blacksmith will be standing to the right of the dark elf guild. Teleport to Oren. Immediately upon arrival, you will see a warehouse building in front of you. Go around it from any side you like and head to the opposite part of the city. The Blacksmith of Mammon should be standing between the nameless buildings located next to the warriors' guild.
