Gogma Reinforce and Amend change reinforcement bonuses; Reset Skills targets Set Bonus and Group Skills. The manual warns that cancelling after viewing the result does not refund materials or zenny. Choose the operation and acceptable outcome before spending resources.

Official visual introduction

Official Free Title Update 4 trailer, introducing Gogmazios and its update. It is not a step-by-step recording of the current reinforcement menu. Watch on the official channel.

Check in this order

  1. Identify whether your problem is the weapon’s reinforcement bonuses or its skills. Do not spend on one system expecting the other to change.
  2. At the Smithy, open Forge/Upgrade Artian Weapons, then Gogma Artian Reinforcement.
  3. For a fully reinforced weapon, inspect Amend: keep bonus types and reroll values, or reset types and values, according to your goal.
  4. For Set Bonus or Group Skills, inspect Reset Skills and the materials’ traits. Budget the operation before viewing and accepting or cancelling its result.

Check the base weapon before the first upgrade

Creating a Gogma Artian weapon uses a Rarity 8 Artian base and three Gogma materials of the same Gogma element. The result keeps the base weapon type. Do not upgrade an unwanted type expecting skill resetting to convert it into another weapon category later.

Separate type, value and skill

A desired bonus type with a disappointing value is different from an unwanted type. Amend exposes a choice between preserving types for new values and resetting both. A bad skill combination is another decision again. Write down which property you need to improve so an attractive preview does not distract you from the original goal.

Material traits do not rewrite the weapon trait

CAPCOM says matching material and weapon traits yield better values during skill resetting, but the weapon’s Gogma Trait does not change based on those materials. Do not spend mismatched resources expecting that trait to transform.

Set a stopping rule

Before a roll, decide which outcomes you would keep and how many attempts the available resources support. The preview lets you inspect a result, but the no-refund warning makes repeated cancelled previews a paid activity. This guide does not invent odds or a guaranteed path to a particular skill pair.
