Remove Soul Crystals from weapons can:

Pay attention!

The Soul Crystal is not returned when the SA effect is removed

How to upgrade the Soul Crystal?

To obtain a Soul Crystal of the desired level, you need to fill it with the souls of monsters. To do this, purchase one of the empty crystals from a Blacksmith in any town.

On MasterWork, the process of leveling Soul Crystals has been reworked. To level up an SA, you only need to acquire one of the crystals.

Blacksmiths will offer you an empty Soul Crystal of one of three colors — blue, green, or red. You can only purchase one crystal at a time. To buy additional crystals, talk to the blacksmith again, but be careful — to level up a crystal, there must be only one crystal in your inventory.

An empty Soul Crystal can also be purchased in the Luxury Store from Alexandria Alexandria Armor Merchant .

To level up a Soul Crystal, find the required monster (see the table below) and kill it. You do not need to use the crystal on the monster.

The chance of soul absorption is not 100%, so for each crystal level, you may need to kill from one to several dozen monsters.

In a basic game

To get the Soul Crystal of the right level you need to fill it with the souls of monsters. To do this, reach 40 level and take the quest Enhance Your Weapon in one of the cities:

Magister will offer you an empty Soul Crystal of one of three colors - blue, green or red. You can only take one crystal at a time. If you want to take a few - throw already taken to the ground or transfer them into the pet inventory.

To upgrade the Soul Crystal, find the monster you need (see the table below), lower it's health level below 10%, and use the crystal on it. For convenience, the crystal can be placed on the skill bar.

When used, you will see a soul absorption animation similar to the Drain Health animation. After using the crystal, you must kill monster.

Soul absorption chance is not 100%, so for each level of crystal you will have to kill from 1 to several dozen monsters.

Pay attention!

You don't need to use the Soul Crystal on MasterWork if it is in your inventory.

For a successful soul absorption, there must be only 1 soul crystal in the inventory!

If there are more than one, you will see a report of failure due to resonating crystals. Make sure you remove all the extra crystals from inventory before you start exping.

The SA leveling quest is automatically activated when your character enters the game. You don’t need to start it from an NPC. If you cancel the quest manually, simply re-enter the game to reactivate it.

Upgrading SA 2-10 lv.

Pay attention!

You do not need to search for different monsters for each level to upgrade the Soul Crystal. You can upgrade the crystal from 1 to the desired level on the same type of monsters required for the required crystal level.
