· Reforging Molds and Amplification Catalysts obtained from the Fox Hunter Summit are very important resources in the game. These items are essential for weapon enhancement and advancement, and Amplification Catalysts, in particular, can be used as a means to obtain duplicate Demon Weapons for free.
· These resources can be obtained from the exchange shop in the Fox Hunter Summit, and can be sufficiently collected by farming Level 3 difficulty or clearing Level 4 stages. They can also be obtained as rewards for clearing Apex Ranking 20 times, making both items relatively easy to exchange.
· The main reason to save these resources is to prepare for powerful weapons or characters that will appear in the upcoming v1.5 update. They are particularly used for duplicate enhancement of Demon Weapons or crafting Calamity Weapons, so careful use is required.

· Amplification Catalysts are used for duplicate enhancement of Demon Weapons. However, using them on all weapons may be inefficient. For example, for weapons like 'Fortune Threshold' which are relatively easy to farm, it might be better to farm them directly than to use a Catalyst.
· Weapons worth considering for Catalyst use include the 'Siren's Wings' series. These weapons perform both DPS and support roles for each attribute, and while the Animo, Amber, and Electro attributes already exist, they may also be applied to future Hydro and Pyro attribute weapons. Since these weapons are difficult to farm, you might consider using Amplification Catalysts to enhance them quickly.
· Additionally, the 'Typhons Prime' weapon series is also a candidate. These weapons can only be purchased two at a time every two weeks from the exchange shop, making it take a long time to fully enhance them. Therefore, if you want to quickly boost the performance of a specific character (e.g., Ada, Rebecca), using Amplification Catalysts to enhance Typhons Prime weapons can be a good choice. Enhancing 'Prime Serenity' or 'Prime Uplift' for support characters is also useful.

· Reforging Molds are mainly used for enhancing Calamity Weapons. If you already possess 'Thorned Requiem' and 'Perpetual Strife', you only need one Reforging Mold per weapon. The remaining slots can be unlocked without molds.
· If you haven't crafted Calamity Weapons yet, it's recommended to prioritize using Reforging Molds for crafting those weapons. 'Perpetual Strife' in particular is the optimal weapon for the new character 'Ada' and pairs well with summoner buffs. It can also be usefully applied to weapon enhancements like 'Firearm Feast' for Flora or other Pyro characters.
· Since Reforging Molds can be obtained two at a time from the Fox Hunter Summit, if you have extras, stockpiling them for future Calamity Weapons or character weapon enhancements is also a good strategy. Weapon rewards obtained from weekly clear bonuses, in particular, have time limits, so quickly enhancing them using Reforging Molds can be efficient.

· At the current moment, there may not be an absolute necessity to use Reforging Molds and Amplification Catalysts. If you are already familiar with the game and enjoy the content sufficiently, stockpiling resources can be advantageous in the long run.
· However, if you are returning to the game or need to catch up on early content, using these resources to quickly improve your character's performance can aid in account growth. Which items to prioritize enhancing will depend on your individual playstyle and the characters and weapons you currently possess.
· The video concludes by asking viewers to share in the comments how they are utilizing or stockpiling these resources.
