Fortification Guide

The basics of fortification, fortifying to +99 and +99★, and how to use cheat engine to fortify your equipment

The basics of fortification

• Higher tier equipment gives more fortification points (see table).
  
• 1 point of fortification = 2 points of sharpness, durability, etc.
  
• Once you reach +99, it starts over from +1★ and goes to +99★.
  
  • Equipment gives 1/3 the fortification points after you reach +99.
    
    
    
  • It will ignore fortifications below +1★, so a +99 blade will only be worth the points for its tier.
• Below +99, you get 1 extra point for every piece of equipment that matches another.
  
  
  
• The formula for the cost is:
  
  • Base cost of the thing being fortified + fortification level of equipment being sacrificed x 100
    So, a gold tier blade fortified with a +99★ blade would cost 9000 + 9900.
• Since the base cost of training equipment is 0, it is best to max it out before fortifying the equipment you want to use.
  
• You don’t lose the fortifications when you upgrade.

Tier	Base Cost	Points < +99	Points > +99	# to +99★
	0	1	0
	1000	1	.333	297
	2000	2	.666	149
	3000	3	1	99
	4000	4	1.333	75
	5000	5	1.666	60
	6000	6	2	50
	7000	7	2.333	43
	8000	8	2.666	38
	9000	9	3	33

Fortifying to +99

1. Make a training blade + scabbard + ODM gear
   
2. Do Southern Region 1st Survey Area - Defending the Front 100 times (just kill the boss titan)
   
3. Make 50 training blades, scabbards, and ODM gear and forify the first ones you made to +99
   
4. Forify the equipment you want to use with the training equipment
   
   • If you don't want to sacrifice your blades in the next section, then skip this step

Cost: 60,000
Materials: Generic Statement of Deployment x 300

If you only want to fortify one thing, it is 1/3 everything.

Tip: you can get extra money by using Christa and playing on hard difficulty while grinding missions. You will get 345,500 funds from doing Defend the Front 100 times.

Fortifying to +99★

I recommend only fortifying your blades to +99★, because it is so expensive, and scabbards/ODM gear don't affect damage.

I have researched all the possible blades you could farm to reach +99★, and the one that takes the least amount of missions is the Rapier:

1. Make a new blade you want to max
   
2. Do Eastern Region 2nd Survey Area - Plan to Retake the Walled City 50 times (kill 3 boss titans)
   
3. Destroy titan body parts in Deepest Depths Special Battlefield - Diversionary Tactics 3-5 times (use Sasha and play on easy difficulty)
   
4. Make a training blade and fortify it with your +99 blade
   
5. Make 75 Rapiers and fortify the training blade to +99★
   
6. Fortify the blade you made in step 1 with the training blade

Cost: 750,000
Materials: Top Rank Ceremonial Statement of Deployment x 150, Titan Crystal x 225

If you want to max your scabbard and ODM gear, the ingredients are the same for Wing and Symbol. By completeing survey areas and requests in True Attack Mode, you should have enough to afford it.

Using cheat engine to fortify your equipment

1. Download Cheat Engine[www.cheatengine.org] and install it
   
2. Go to this link[fearlessrevolution.com], scroll down to attachments, and download "Attack on Titan Wings of Freedom V51.CT"
   
3. Start the game and pause in the camp/barracks
   
4. Open cheat engine and click the computer icon
   
   
5. Select the game from the list of processes
   
   
6. Click the folder icon and find where you downloaded "Attack on Titan Wings of Freedom V51.CT"
   
   
7. Click Yes when it asks you to run Lua Script
   
8. Check these boxes and change the value of "Fortification Set to 99?" to Yes
   
   
9. In game, go to Change Equipment from the pause menu and scroll through your equipment. As you scroll it will be automatically updated to +99★.

...You very literally do not need to do this...gear as is does plenty...

Now, I'm not Anti Cheat. I'm just Anti Multiplayer Cheat. However, when games are easy enough despite that, well. Frankly, It needs to noted. Your biggest concern should be trying to complete all Side Objectives, and the Dire Subjugation without losing the mission - To which you still don't need to do this.

As a note. There are easier programs to use than Cheat Engine. Kernals and Bytes are a pain to read for the average human without some amount of knowledge, and the Cheat Engine very poorly gives you that information.

For people concerned about that 99 fortify and how much of an impact it has? It doesn't. Once you grasp the controls, the game basically weights your choices in your favor despite your gear. So, don't feel the need to do this. Really. It has no real effect beyond satisfying that OCD of perfect game. At which point, you might as well just go download a save and say "I did it."

This game may be easy but True Attack Mode scares me

[Loland]

[awesome1ru]

[Stalmer]

я надеюсь,что тех,кто использовал или используют данный чит и подобное,забанят навсегда.где это виденно,что бы в настоящем вторжении удар по затвердевшей конечности был более 99к> урона.
