Forge

This guide will teach you all about the Forge in MapleStory M. An item's Stats and Rank can be increased.

Level Up[]

Select weapons or armor to level them up.
The max level of weapons or armor depends on the item's rank.
You will earn more EXP if the item used as a material has a higher rank.
Mesos are required when leveling up. The number of Mesos required depends on the amount of materials being used.

How to Level Up[]

Select a base weapon or piece of armor to level up, and use material items to increase EXP on the selected weapon or armor.
STEP 1: Register the weapon or armor that you want to level up.
STEP 2: Register all material items to be used, or select them individually.
Equipped or locked weapons and armor can be registered as base items, but cannot be used as materials.
To use locked items as materials, select the item and unlock it before.

Rank Up[]

Reach the max level on each of the ranks (Normal, Rare, Epic, Unique, Legendary, Mystic) to move up to the next one.
When the item ranks up, its level resets to Lv. 1.
Mesos and Rank Up Stones are required to rank up.

How to Rank Up[]

When you select the highest level item, a Rank Up Stone is automatically registered.

STEP 1: Register the item you want to level up.
STEP 2: The Rank Up Stone that will be used will be automatically selected.
You can rank up items that are currently equipped or locked.
When ranking up, the required amount of Rank Up Stones depends on the type of item and its rank.

Fuse[]

You can fuse two pieces of the same type of equipment that are both the max rank level (Normal, Rare, Epic, Unique, Legendary, or Mystic).
The result is a random item of the same type as the base, but at Lv. 1 on the next rank.
The result will have one less star force than the base material use.
Mesos are required for fusion.

How to Fuse[]

Select two of the same type of equipment that are the same rank and are max level. One will be used as the base and the other as the material.
STEP 1: Select the base item you want to fuse.
STEP 2: Select a material that is the same type of item, rank, and is at max level.
Equipped or locked items can be selected as base items, but they cannot be used as materials.

Enhance[]

Enhance weapons and armor to increase their Star Force.
Enhancement results are divided into Successful, No Change, and Failed. When enhancement fails, the item may be destroyed. (When an item is destroyed, you cannot use the Forge.)
Weapons and armor of all ranks have a limited number of enhancement failures. When the number goes over the limit, the item cannot be enhanced any further.
Mesos are required for enhancement.

How to Enhance[]

Select a weapon or piece of armor that you want to enhance.
STEP 1: Select the weapon or armor that you want to enhance.
STEP 2: To increase the enhancement success rate, use items such as Lucky Day, Safety, or Shielding Ward.
Equipped, locked, and destroyed items can all be enhanced.
When enhancing, the required amount of Mesos depends on the type of item and its rank.

Change Options[]

Change an item's Potential in [Change Options].
Cubes and Mesos are required for changing options.

How to Change Options[]

Change an item's Potential by selecting it and using a Cube.
STEP 1: Select the base item you want to change.
STEP 2: Select the Cube you want to use.
You cannot change Options on locked items.
The quantity of Cubes required depends on the item's rank.

Enhance Emblem[]

Enhance emblems on Elite items whose emblem levels are not at max.
Emblem enhancement can succeed or fail.
Mystic weapons and armor have a limited number of emblem enhancement failures. When the number goes over the limit, the emblem cannot be enhanced any further.
Emblem Traces and Mesos are required for emblem enhancement.

How to Enhance Emblems[]

Use Emblem Traces to enhance emblems.
STEP 1: Select the base Elite item with the emblem you want to enhance.
STEP 2: Emblem Traces to be used as materials are automatically selected.
You can enhance emblems on items that are currently equipped or locked.
The number of required Emblem Traces depends on the item's emblem level.

Transfer[]

Transfer copies the stats of destroyed equipment to an identical item that is not destroyed.

Stats that transfer
- The destroyed equipment's basic stats.
- The destroyed equipment's Star Force rank.
- The destroyed equipment's Potential rank and number of Potentials.
- The destroyed equipment's tradability and number of Scissor Cuts.

How to Transfer[]

Stats from destroyed weapons and armor can be transferred onto items of the same type and rank.
STEP 1: Select the destroyed weapon or armor that you want to transfer.
STEP 2: Select the weapon or armor of the same type and rank that will receive the transfer.
Transfers can only be completed when both pieces of equipment are the same type and rank.
The stats on the receiving equipment will be replaced by the stats from the destroyed item.
Transfer is restricted on items earned through events.
