🎯 How to Get Split Soul Katana
Method 1: Soul Curse Boss Raid (0.25% Drop)
The Soul Curse is an endgame boss raid that requires a coordinated team. Defeating it grants a 0.25% chance to drop the Split Soul Katana — one of the lowest drop rates for any weapon in the game.
Recommended Level: 400+
Team Size: 4-player squad recommended
Respawn Timer: 45 minutes
Expected Farm Time: ~40-80 hours of dedicated farming
⚠️ Persistence Required: At 0.25%, you need roughly 400 kills to reach the expected value. This is a marathon, not a sprint.
Method 2: Zen Forest Crafting (100 Transfigured Humans)
The deterministic path. Collect 100 Transfigured Humans and bring them to the Zen Forest forge station for guaranteed crafting.
Crafting Steps:
- 1. Farm Transfigured Humans from Investigation missions

- 3. Travel to Zen Forest (northeast map region)
- 4. Find the forge anvil near the large tree
- 5. Select "Split Soul Katana" recipe
- 6. Confirm synthesis
✅ Recommended: While 100 Transfigured Humans takes significant farming, this is the guaranteed path with no RNG.
