Creating APCs
1. To first create an APC, you need to learn how to make it. This is done by buying a recipe from Iris.
- You only have to buy a recipe once.
- You can obtain recipes that are up to +2 levels than your current skill level.
2. Gather the required materials.
Three main materials are needed for creating an APC:
- Spirit of Adventurer
- These can be obtained by grinding Uncommon (or greater) equipment in Player Grinders.
- Protein Oil
- These can be obtained from Alchemists.
- Other Materials
- The remaining items are gathered from NPCs. Be nice to them and get materials!
3. From here, go the main menu and choose Profession.
4. Choose and display the APC you wish to create.
- If your Skill Level is less than the APC's Proper Skill Level, you may fail the creation.
- If you fail the creation, your materials will be consumed regardless and no experience will be gained.
Using APCs
- Acts as a consumable item to be used in Dungeons.
- Summons an APC to accompany you in Dungeons and will fight accordingly.
- APCs will last for a duration of 15 minutes (900 seconds) or until the Player dies.
- Cooldown for most APCs lasts for 15 minutes with the exception of Delilah, which lasts only 5 minutes.
- You can only summon one APC per person per party. (i.e. You can't summon multiple APCs.)
- The max you could have out in a party of 4 would be 4 APCs; one per person.
- You CANNOT summon APCs in the Arena or the Valley of Fallen Souls.
- You CANNOT summon APCs in practice mode.
- APCs are worth 0 gold to NPCs.
- All APCs are interchangeable and tradable amongst all characters, and can even be dropped in Dungeons.
- APCs can be put up for sale in the Auction House.
- Most APCs levels will be the same as the required level to use the summon.
Disassembly
Animators get a special type of disassembler that cannot be set up as a shop. It will only disassemble purple weapons or armor, and gives you Animate Spirits of different quality and quantity depending on the level of item disassembled:
