For fun I decided to try to go through all of the old journey steps, and I wanted to make an exceptional weapon. I have both a T3 and a named blacksmith. However I can’t find exceptional weapons in the menu. I also went through all the dungeons and got all the recipes. Did they get rid of these from the game? Or do they still have them but do not label them as such? If so what are they now called? If I wanted to make a weapon like this now given the new journey what do I do?
I assune you mean ‘Bordered’ weapons, it’s the closest we have as far as craftsbles go. Be it Hardened Steel, Star Metal or Perfected tier.
Exceptional/‘Variable’ effect weapons do still drop, though.
I have never heard of a ‘bordered’ weapon. What is this? What would be an example of it?
“Exceptional/‘Variable’ effect weapons do still drop, though.”
Explain this too, and give an example.
Bordered: Epic and Legendary and so on weapons have a coloured thick border around their icon in the inventory.
Variable: you can find and in a few rare instances craft weapons that come with the ‘Variable’ stat, which randomizes its stats within a set parameter.
Example: you find 2 ‘Perfected Steel Greatswords’ from a chest, one has low durability but higher armor penetration and damage.
The other has better durability but lower Armor Penetration, same damage.
There’s some craftable weapons that have this as well, but not many and maybe they got changed. If i remember correctly it’s either the Legion weapons or Voidforged weapons.
Edit, to clarify: sometimes the prefix for weapons in chests is Exceptional instead of Perfected.
They got rid of them a long time ago. You can’t craft exceptional and flawless gear anymore. Instead, different tiers of crafters give your gear different bonuses when crafting. You can look it all up on the wiki. For weapons, you can look at the blacksmith page.

“Exceptional/‘Variable’ effect weapons”
Did you put the slash in between to denote them as synonyms of each other?
Edit: removed my nonsense.

I thought you could still find them, but after checking the admin panel they definitely no longer are a thing. The Variable effect is, but has no bearing on the ‘Perfected’ weapons found in chests. It’s for the Hardened Steel weapons found on 3skull animals.
My apologies for the confusion.

If you don’t mind, I just want to clarify a misunderstanding.
What @NeonOctopus was asking about was the old way of crafting gear. You needed a T3 crafter to craft “exceptional” gear and a T4 to craft “flawless”. On top of that, it wouldn’t be just any T3 and any T4. For example, Grrr Legbiter was the only one who could craft a flawless Hyperborean Slaver Armor. All the other armorers could get only up to exceptional.
What @Catastrofus is talking about are weapon tags (like “variable” and “corrupted”), and some new recipes.

In Siptah, there are hardened steel weapons with different stats… two-handed sword with 45 damage and 20+ penetration, axes with 4+ applied penetration, sometimes with 8 penetration… they are from Storm Purgue in Leyshrine, and, maybe you can find them in Black Corsairs Bay, not in the main camp, the other camp.
And, only once I found some legendary weapons with different stats than normal legendary ones… I went many, many, many, many times to a specific chest, a normal one with supplies and normal weapons, I took everything and I took everything from a chest near the first one, with gold and silver… so I took everything many, many, many, many times.
After the first chest I only took the weapons, bad weapons, but I took them, from the second one the gold and silver, also many times.
After that I only took the gold and silver from the second one, also many times.
And in the end, I stopped taking the gold and silver, I went many times but I didn’t take anything from any chest… many times.
In the end, one day, in the first chest, I found legendary weapons, legendary two-handed sword, legendary battle axe, legendary blades and legendary battle hammer.
Not all together, but going there, from every 2-5 chests, one legendary weapon.
The icon is the same as some legendary weapons, but the stats were way better, knives bled a lot, sword wasn’t heavy and had a lot of damage and penetration, I didn’t use the axe or hammer.
You have to go to chests and dungeons without legendary weapons, just with steel or hardened steel ones, this can help you get a chest with different legendary weapons, I don’t know, it’s the only thing I did… I went many times, I took everything, I took anything, and I never carried a legendary weapon, they were all in the hands of warriors, protecting my base.
Best two handed sword ever…and blades,well,axe was perfect too…
Edit some minutes after…while you go many times to the same chest, you need to complete dungeons and kill map bosses,taking legenday weapons,all,even if you have 2 or 3 chest fully with un used weapons…don´t use them,maybe you´ll find what you are looking for.
