For adding a special ability to a weapon, you need a soul crystal of the appropriate stage and color. This depends on the desired SA and the grade of the weapon. For weapons up to B Grade, you can inquire at blacksmiths in Giran and Aden about possible SAs and the required crystal colors. For A and S Grade weapons, the Blacksmith of Mammon is necessary. The process also requires gemstones and money.

For dual swords, the special ability is gained automatically by over-enchanting the weapon to +4 or higher, without the need for a crystal.
