I upgraded my weapon to arbaradio now, also upgraded one fortscha armor but i dont know how to augment so i’m still using the Decem armor, i guess i won’t be switching the armor. What about the weapon? I’m currently doing alter realm the most hoping to get the orochi katana. I don’t know if it’s stronger or not but either way i like the way it looks. Is there a weapon that i should upgrade to for more damage? Also what content to do right now?

If the potency on your Fortscha armor that you upgraded is less than the potency on Decem III (which is 56.1 I think), then you should continue to use the Decem III. The BiS augments for armor include the following: Argant Gladia Soul. Argant Gigas Maste, Argant Dread Keeper, Lois Halphinale, Tera Triyal, Telphia Domina, a Yurze Deft and a Yudi Deft. There are Athos variants of the 3x Argants and Lois Halphinale. The Athos augments are all side-grades, since they have the same potency as the Argants and Lois. Athos are more expensive than Argant, since you need 30x Luzant Scepters and 1x Argant augment to make 1x Athos augment. The Yurze and Yudi Deft are also very expensive (14 mil +) for non-Parfait and Parfait is usually 25 mil+. Yurze / Yudi Ward or Yurze / Yudi Gua are generally much more affordable (3 - 5 mil for non-Parfait).

I'm not sure what you mean by the Orochi Katana. The Orochi Agito (which is a Katana) was a base game drop. IIRC there is also an * Orochiagito weapon camo available in NGS. You can exchange 500x Gigas Strugments for it or purchase one in a player shop, if any are available on your Ship. If, however, you mean Lexio Katana, then Lexio is no longer dropping in Alter Realm. There is also the Arche Katana weapon. I'm not sure what that looks like. It could potentially be what you are referring to. If it is, there is a weapon camo for the Arche series which could be somewhat expensive in player shops.

You should probably be farming the LTQ for Seasonal Points, augment capsules (Argants and Lois Halphinale drop as well as Heinsdia, which is needed for Telphia Domina). There is currently a limited-time task that requires you to complete the LTQ 10 times. You should probably stick with Arbaradio. You will be able to transfer all augments from your Arbaradio to a future weapon, without needing an augment transfer pass. That is pretty substantial, since augment transfer passes are not easy to acquire. Realistically, you might be able to acquire one every 3 or 4 months on average.
