Soul Weapon System

Soul Weapons

A Mysterious Magician has appeared in town and brought with him the power of Soul Weapons! Soul Weapons give the player the ability to power up their level 75+ weapons with extra benefits, as well as the possibility to summon a boss. Your weapon gains in strength when damaging enemies. Your weapon is able to summon a boss when equipped with a Boss Soul.

Players are able to turn their weapons into a Soul Weapon by using a Soul Enchanter. Enchanters can be obtained from the Murgoth event and from hunting monsters. There are 3 different power levels for Soul Enchanters, but even the weakest one still has a 30% completion chance. Don't worry if it fails though; your weapon is perfectly safe and you can always try again. A Soul Weapon, with or without a Boss Soul equipped, gains power when damaging enemies. When your Soul Weapon gauge is full, you are inflicting as much damage as the Soul Weapon can give you.

When fighting boss monsters or when taking part in the Murgoth event, you have a chance to collect a Soul Shard. Once you collect 10 of the same Boss Soul Shards, double-click on the stack. Murgoth will appear and trade you the stack for a whole Soul. Each boss has a different amount of souls, and you will randomly be given one.

If you are able to get a Boss Soul you have 2 options. You can place the Boss Soul into your weapon, or add it to Murgoth's Soul Collector book. A full collection of souls will reveal a hidden picture of the boss in the Collection Book. The link for the Soul Collector book is found in the Soul Weapon gauge. The gauge only appears if you have a Soul Weapon equipped. Even if the boss is not currently found in the book, don't throw it away! The book has a lot of room left to be expanded in the future. Also don't worry about placing the wrong Boss Soul on your weapon. A Soul Weapon does not have a limit on how many Boss Souls you can place in it. Of course, only the latest Boss Soul's enhancement is in effect.


Boss Souls

  • There are 2 power classes for Boss Monster Souls:
    • Magnificent Souls: Require level 100 + weapons, give the weapon a random potential and summon a more powerful version of the boss.
    • Normal Souls: Has one of many different prefixes to the soul such as Beefy, Potent, etc. which determine stat increase and require level 75 + weapons.
  • Bosses that have souls - Spirit of Rock, Prison Guard Ani, Dragon Rider, Rex, Mu Gong, Pianus, Black Slime, Ephenia, Cygnus, Von Leon, Arkarium, Pink Bean, Magnus, Balrog and Xerxes.

Summoning a Soul Weapon’s boss uses points. The points are collected by damaging and defeating monsters. Each Boss Monster Soul has a different summon. Summons take different amounts of points from the Soul Gauge. Some of the summons give you a buff, some summon the boss in a devastating attack and some even cause the boss to fight for you in a limited amount of time. Keep an eye on the Soul Gem floating above your head to let you know when the boss is ready to be summoned again.

If you want to remove the awesome power of souls from your weapon, talk to the Mysterious Magician. He can be found in many of the more popular towns throughout Maple World.
