Crafting equipment
Trade "matter" (see the explanation below) to the Temenos Furnace and Apollyon Furnace to craft the following equipment. The type of equipment that can be crafted will differ by area.
Temenos
14221 14222
Apollyon
14223 14224
Reforging equipment
Trade the equipment and "matter" (see the explanation below) to the same NPC that crafted the equipment while possessing the necessary number of units in order to add an augment to the equipment.
After the augment has been added, you can use the units as RP (Reinforcement Points) to upgrade the augment in stages. You will need the corresponding matter for each upgrade.
"Matter" overview
Matter is a new item that is needed to craft and reforge the equipment. It can be acquired from Worlds that defeat notorious monsters in Limbus.

Powerful notorious monsters will now appear within Limbus for a set period of time.
Defeating these notorious monsters will alter the treasure chest that appears within Limbus the following week, giving you a chance to acquire matter.

About the battles
The level set within Limbus does not apply to the battles.
Since the battles are not exclusive, you can fight alongside other adventurers.
There is no time limit for the battles.
The notorious monsters' HP will not recover automatically.
The monsters will remain until they are defeated.
About the obtainable rewards
The color of the treasure chest will change the following week for the World and area where the notorious monsters were defeated, giving you the opportunity to earn matter.
The number of victories against the notorious monsters will be counted for both Temenos and Apollyon, and will be reset when the conquest results are tabulated.
14227 14228
The treasure chest change applies to each World. Therefore, any players residing in a World that defeated notorious monsters will be given the chance to acquire matter for the applicable area, not just those who actually participated in defeating the monsters.
* The area-specific support effects and the quantity of units that can be acquired from the treasure chest are the same as before.
The player's chances of acquiring matter are based on the number of victories over notorious monsters that were earned in the player's World.
[Unlocking the content for the first time]
Characters that have never acquired Alabaster Matter or Murky Matter are guaranteed to acquire them the first time they unlock the content*.
* This only applies once per character and is not affected by the treasure chest reset when the conquest results are tabulated.
"131–135" has been added to the level selection choices for the Temenos Operator and Apollyon Operator.
The following additions and adjustments have been made to Besieged.
You can now trade for the following items using Imperial Standing.

Brier-proof net / compass of transference / magma mitigation set / resurrection retardant axe / insulator tablet / anti-glaciation gear
