Overgeared

There were three ways to make ego items.

First, utilize the Granting an Ego skill. This was the method that only Pagma and Grid could use. It gave the target item the desired soul so it was very quick and easy to get the result they wanted. However, Grid sealed this skill due to ethical issues. There was also a very big disadvantage that there was a limited number of uses.

Second, impart emotions to an item using specific actions. It was an extreme method such as insulting an item being crafted, etcetera, in order to stimulate the item, and infuse negative emotions. The success rate wasn’t high. Currently, the few ego items distributed among players were mostly ego items made in this way. They had a low value compared to their high price.

The typical characteristics of an ego item was the ability to independently move, think, and communicate. An ego item created in this way had a very limited thinking ability due to the emotions they held. It was easy to see based on Thorn of Deep Grievance. Thorn of Deep Grievance wanted to harm its creator. However, that was it. They couldn’t move independently. In fact, it was difficult to place them in the category of ego items.

[Production of the God Hand has been completed.]

Grid was convinced once he saw the finished product. The third and final method to make an ego item—the Ego Item Making skill. Only this dwarf skill was the ultimate way to make true ego items.

[God Hand]

[Rating: Legendary (Growth)

Durability: Infinite

An artifact created out of ‘Greed’ by Grid, who is becoming a myth.

Since it is modeled after Grid’s own hands, all items can be worn and used without restrictions. It can also act as a blacksmith.

Hexetia, the god of blacksmiths, is amazed by the phenomenal performance and covets it.

* 40% of the owner’s pure strength and dexterity are applied.

* Can reproduce the owner’s unique skills. However, the power of the skills are limited to 25%, and the owner’s mana is consumed when using the skill.

On the other hand, skills belonging to equipped items can be fully displayed without consuming resources. Buff skills used will affect the owner.

* Has the Advanced Blacksmith’s Craftsmanship skill.

* Has mastered Advanced Weapons Mastery and Shield Mastery.

Etc, etc.]

There were only a few numerical differences according to the rating and the detailed view of the new God Hand wasn’t much different from the old ones. However, there were clear differences in the areas related to the ego. The existing God Hands only had the extremely basic characteristics of ‘judging and moving on their own.’

[★ An ego item.

The ego is impressed by the appearance of the owner who gave birth to it without giving up until the last moment. It has pledged absolute loyalty to you. The ego wants to be like you. The more trials you face, the more it will unleash its power.

In particular, the stronger the enemy, the less it could use its own judgment to threaten the opponent. Therefore, in many cases, Grid needed to convey detailed commands in real time, and this overloaded Grid’s thinking ability. It was the reason why the performance of the God Hands got worse as the battle became more intense, and the reason why Grid couldn’t increase the number of
