SUMMON NIGHT: CRAFT SWORD 2 WEAPON SECRETS FAQ v 0.99 by: darkrunner ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TABLE OF CONTENTS 0)Introduction 1)FAQs 2)Weapon Secrets A. Sword Type B. Axe Type C. Spear Type D. Fist Type E. Drill Type 3)Tempering Items and Properties 4)Version History 5)Thanks and Legal Stuff ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 0) Introduction Welcome to the Weapon Secrets FAQ for the game Summon Night: Craft Sword 2. This is the 2nd game of Summon Night for the GBA, but not really related to the first one. This is for the people who want to know what they're forging and the effects of materials if they temper them into weapons. You can see some weird names in this FAQ since some of the materials and names have Kanji in them. I tried to consult xcomp's SN:CS2 FAQ, since it was OK to see 'Beast King's Crest' or 'Lifestone of High Demon' in his FAQ, I figured it wouldn't make any difference here. My Japanese is really non-existent. Any corrections would be welcome, as long as I can understand it. Send some mail to jrtzabala@hotmail (dot) com. Happy Forging!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1) FAQs Q: I can't forge anything! A: First you must get some Forging Material. This can also be thought of as 'blueprints' for weapons. You can check if you have some free Material in the 'Weapons' Menu. They're usually shining and have no form yet. You can get some in chest and another set in the Fishing Mini-game. Q: I can't temper weapons! A: To temper weapons, you must raise your Craftsman Ranking to at least 'No. 1 Craftsman of the Village'. In this rank, you can temper 1 material to one weapon. Q: How do I get materials for tempering/forging? A: You can try the fishing mini-game, defeating enemies, breaking stuff, doing sub-quests and rewards for bosses. Check xcomp's FAQ or the enemy list to see who drops what. Q: You have the wrong data/grammar/spelling in your FAQ... You named your technique wrong... A: I'm human, yes. Tell me so I can correct it. As for technique names, I wrote them down as I translated them, unless you want the Energy Shot to be Pinching Technique...then I can't do anything for you. Q: O|V|G \/\/h47 iz 7eh |3Es7 l337 w34p0n? ROFLZ!!!!!111 A: O.o? Actually I can read that, but don't expect any reply from me. I only reply to readable English. Q: So, what is the best weapon out of the 200? A: I like using the Holy Heaven Saber, but that's just me. Try everything out so you can see for yourself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2) Weapon Secrets A. Sword Type Includes knives, sabers and blades. Swords are generally fast and have good damage. They can hit up to 3 times (A, A, A) and the low attack (DOWN+A) is a thrust that can be followed by two attacks.

Knuckle type Knuckles have short range, but it hits enemies more than any weapon (except maybe the drill...), at least 5 times. Its DOWN+A attack can be charged into a powerful uppercut. It's still weaker than the sword, but I guess the speed makes up for it.
