Fifth link,
viewtopic.php?t=8779

there is a post by "TheSorrow" more like a guide that i thought would be usefull, quoting.

TheSorrow wrote:

To alchemize, just bring 2 weapons of the same exact name (for example, Broad Wings and Broad Wings, NOT Broad Wings and Broad Zhen), and he'll mix them to you, adding a +1 to the name. The alchemizing's effect is to give a small attack boost to the weapon (ATK multiplied in .25, .50, .75, 1, 1.25).
So, lets say you wanna have a Spin Piney at max. customization (+5), and you somehow have all the Spin Pineys needed already. So, you talk to him, select the weapons, and it goes like this
Spin Piney + Spin Piney = Spin Piney+1 (x.25)
Spin Piney+1 + Spin Piney = Spin Piney+2 (x .50)
Spin Piney+2 + Spin Piney = Spin Piney+3 (x .75)
Spin Piney+3 + Spin Piney = Spin Piney+4 (x 1)
Spin Piney+4 + Spin Piney = Spin Piney+5 (x 1.25)
That is all...
And, once you have a weapon at +5, you can use it to alchemize any other weapon of the same kind (in this case, Dual Swords), but only counts as 1.
So, you can use it for a Spin Needle like this
Spin Piney+5 + Spin Needle = Spin Needle +1.

Sixth link,
viewtopic.php?t=9024

this topic talks about the best weapon for haseo for vol 1, suming up the best answer from "TheSorrow".

TheSorrow wrote:

Dual Swords:
Spin Needle + 5/Hold + Release
Ripper's Blade/Rapid attacks
(people say Spin Axe + 5 is better than Ripper's Blade...they're equal for me)

Broadsword:
Broad Legged + 5/Rapid Attacks
Broad Wings + 5/Hold + Release

The last but not least,
viewtopic.php?t=9055

this topic talks about haseo's best armor, suming it up from what i read,

best 2 armors are rough alloy and the black armor, both are the best but depending on the situation one of them stands out.

well that's all folks, i wrote this topic with the aim of getting it stickied lol we will see what will happens, ooh and by the way, if i missed anything or you want to provide with more usefull links, just post it here, hope this was usefull

Nice topic, but if its sticked it should have a more attracting title, that way its seen by people before they post asking something from this.
...
Well, they'll end up making the topic themselves >.> (is natural here to post before reading), but we could just redirect them to this topic and it becomes an easy answer.

I can't think on anything else to be added.

I dunno I prefer "READ BEFORE POSTING OR DIE". It's short and it gets to the point.

I second that. It also attracts attention more.

DotHack-Haseo · **Posted:** Tue Jan 09, 2007 5:16 pm

Agreed those were kinda spur of the moment ideas.....maybe

the thread to end all questions.

again spur of the moment.

This is truly a very helpful thread, why it isn´t sticky if it was created 10 hours ago?
And what about .hack//wiki? it´s also very helpful for information about the story of all the .hack series.

People can get .hack//wiki info on their own, and plus it has spoilers, and some people want to stay spoiler-free. This thread just directs you to basic Vol 1 questions, for those newcomers who don't use the search function.

Topic title edited to something that actually works and topic stickied.
Good topic. Do feel free to put in other links too if needed~

Insydius · **Posted:** Wed Jan 10, 2007 3:09 am

Seriously doubting if they haven't read the: GENERAL HELP! QUESTIONS POST HERE, The Terminal Disc Thread, The "I beat Volume 1!" Thread., and the announce thread:USE [spoiler] text [/spoiler] TAGS; KEEP THREAD NAME SP FREE; that this thread like the others will be ignored.

Not to mention your not the first to make this kind of thread, it too will most likely be locked for the very same reasons, thread fills with spam and speculation, or in this case the links will goto spam and speculation.

"How to find copies of Spin Gai Gu and Broad Legged":

http://www.dothackers.net/bbs/viewtopic ... highlight=

I hope that helps. Also, you get one copy of Broad Legged when you finish your Job Extension quest for the Edge Punisher form (2nd form).

EDIT: Fixed Link...

Okay thanks now you can you please tell me where Trifle guild shop is located I can't seem to find it...

I am debating writing a walkthrough in between projects for class, I am no expert so it will probably not be too good, but, it might help as that is the one thing the faq needs

but, I'd have to write it without doing sidequests along the way so I can seperate main game levels from sidequest ones
