Machined weapons
bump, has anyone made them yet?
On a totally unrelated note: is there a way i can buy the HoT soundtrack?
The part for the machiend weapon that says " drop from noxious pods " is wrong and outdated.
You get it from the end chest after the dragon’s stand meta event. Can’t be the same one as when you buy the played weapon.

Also, for people findign this thread with questions :
The place of power you need to use the Oiled part is any hero challenge that only require a commune.
An easy one to go for is the old " You’re not worthy" challenge in verdant brick.

Is that chest specialized? like does it drop the shield part when im a chrono and how long did it take you to get it?
Tried to use the shield on 3-4 hero challenges now but dont seem to work for me, maybe i use the wrong shield part or is it something else i need to do with it?
According to the wiki you need a Machined Shield Backing which is dropped from the chest, and an Oiled Shield Boss. Not sure if wiki is accurate, but you should double check the collection just to be sure.

The Oiled Shield Boss can be made by a level 400 weaponsmith (Recipe: 2 Orichalcum ingots + 5 Vials of Linseed Oil). You then have to use this Boss on a HP that is 1) located in any of the new HoT maps, and 2) a channel HP (thus working similarly to charging quartz).
You can get them from noxious pods, or the end chest.
I got the machined hammer part from the end chest and following that the staff part from a noxious pod in another run.
Just confirmed that charging the “Oiled Orichalcum Shield Boss” works at the “Abyssal Depths [Hero Challenge]” in Verdant Brink. I previously tried charging the item at a mastery point location and it did not work. My guess is it only works at Hero Challenges that you commune with.
