With a Mold that could forge Silver equipment, even the worst possible Forging outcome would be an entire grade better than any Instance Dungeon drop. If the player was lucky and forged a high or perfect quality equip, it would be comparable to Gold-grade.
The only problem was that Molds were very rare and were single-use.
Upon seeing the name ‘Umbranse’s Staff’, Lu Li immediately knew where the Mold had come from. Umbranse’s Judgment!
“Umbranse’s Judgment” was a difficult quest in which the player had to face a LV20 humanoid Boss.
Before attempting it, one would have to complete dozens of pre-quests to gather enough of Umbranse’s Poison. The boss could only be killed with this poison. This was one of the most tedious, low-level quests.
Without completing these pre-quests, the only way to beat it was by brute force in numbers.
Even so, this LV20 Boss had considerable strength. Facing a large guild, let alone Lu Li’s party of ten, would be child’s play for it.
