■Soul Fusion Technique
We have introduced “Convert to Magical Crystal”, “Magical Equipment Technique” as part of the “Fusion” skill in the last few mail messages.

We’ll be talking about the last “Fusion” skill, “Soul Fusion Technique”.

Soul Fusion Technique is similar to Magical Equipment Technique, it is a skill used to fuse magical crystal to items.

As you can expert from the word “Soul Fusion”, it is used to fuse magical crystal which contains the soul of devils into an item, forming a greater link than that form via “Magical Equipment Technique”.

It’s by no mean easy as powerful results can appear using it.

Also, slots where you can apply the fusion to is fixed depending on the magical crystal.

For instance, “Flamis’ Magical Crystal” if we use “Magical Equipment Technique”, we can fuse it to all 13 slots.

However, it can only be applied to weapons if we use “Soul Fusion Technique”.

The resultant effect, “Weapon changed to do fire damage” is very powerful though.

Similar to “Magical Equipment Technique”, items resulting from “Soul Fusion Technique” will have a level retriction place on them.

Also, you can use items resulting from “Magical Equipment Technique” as an ingredient instead of “Magic Crystal”. Items called “Soul Fusion Stone” will also be making an appearance.

Even with “Convert to Magical Crystal”, “Magical Equipment Technique”, “Soul Fusion Technique”, at some point, you’ll need to form “agreements” with other players.

Fusion isn’t just “Learn and use it for yourself” but can lead to “ask an expert for help” or “Form an extreme business” play styles.

■Chain Expert Skill

The “Fusion” skill that we have been talking about so far will be implemented as a chain expert skill.

Chain expert skill are skills that are awaken though learning various related expert skill.

They are all new expert skills.

Chain expert skills are not improved in the same way as normal expert skills.

They are tied to the growth of their prerequisite expert skills.

Chain expert skills have the same class, rank and point system used by normal expert skill.

They do not count towards the expert skill point cap.

If you used thing like “Rete water” to downrank an expert skill, the corresponding chain expert skill will downrank as well.

2 chain expert skill, “Fusion” and “Magical Destructive Fist” will be introduced in the 25th of October Patch.

“Fusion” is what we have been talking about, a production base chain expert skill that allows devils and items to be fused together.

“Devil Knowledge”, “Weapon Knowledge”, “Occultism” and “Mineralogy” are the 4 prerequisite expert skill.

Magical Destructive Fist is a combat chain expert skill. It involves placing destructive energy into fists (or weapon) before unleashing them on enemies.

“Destrutive Magic”, “Rush” , “Magic Manipulation” are the 3 prerequisite expert skill.

It’s a powerful technique suitable for battle mages who want to do both magic and melee.

■Expert Skill Review

A lot of new and unimplemented expert skill will be making an appearance.

Since we’re talking about chain expert skill, “Occultism”,”Mineralogy” and “Magic Manipulation” are some examples of new expert skills.

Soon, you will be able to learn the basis of “Occultism” and “Magic Manipulation” from a mysterious new NPC, “Saint Germain” in Shinjuku.

More expert skills will be added as we expend the chain expert skill system.

Also, the existing skill “Destructive Magic” and “Devil Knowledge” will have powerful passive skills added to them.
