The Crying Greatsword is an Elyos quest in AION Classic 5.0. Complete Nightmare in Shining Armour first. It rewards 299,352 experience and Kromede's Greatsword.

Story

The offer

Just a shame to let Kromede's Tear go to waste, Daeva. Kromede would probably shed tears all over again just seeing you carrying it around like that.

If you melt it down and refine it with the Greatsword of the Judge, it'll greatly increase its killing power!

  • "Will you show me how?"

Well, you'll need three things: Kromede's Tear, the Greatsword of the Judge, and a very talented blacksmith.

You already have the first thing and, now that you found me, you have the third thing. You just need the greatsword. If you can get that, I'll take care of the rest.

  • Accept.
  • Decline.

You should be thanking Ariel I'm offering to help you, Daeva.

I truly am one of the finest blacksmiths in all Elysea. So good, in fact, that I can tell you where you can find the greatsword you'll need.

It's with Kromede the Corrupt, at the Fire Temple in Asmodae. It's yours for the taking.

  • "It's not as easy as that, Ukon."

Journal

Ukon said he would refine the Greatsword of the Judge for you if you brought him the needed items.

Along the way

Did you bring the Greatsword of the Judge, Daeva?

Give me the greatsword and Kromede's Tear, and I'll build for you a weapon that can tear through armour like simple flesh.

Come on, come on, before I change my mind.

  • "Here's everything you need."

Are you worried that I'll damage the Greatsword of the Judge?

I...I'm the most famous blacksmith in all Elysea, and you really think that I'll damage it?

If the Governor of Sanctum trusts me to fix his swords, then you, a simple Daeva, should trust me as well. Just come to me with Kromede's Tear and the greatsword in your Cube and I'll fix it up.

  • "I don't trust anyone, Ukon."

Reward

Whew! That took a lot out of me! I forgot how much work these big, heavy greatswords can be! Lots of pounding....

But it's finished...take it. Kromede's Greatsword is complete.

Completion

Ukon said that Kromede's Tear would be good for strengthening the Greatsword of the Judge, and he said he would do it for you if you found the needed items.

You trusted him and gave him Kromede's Tear and the greatsword. He kept his word and made the weapon stronger, turning it into Kromede's Greatsword.
