Broken Blade Yamato Guide
Reforge the Yamato update guide: Midgard Island craft location, Red Orb farming on Space Invaders, Space element setup, and full Yamato requirements.
By Bloxron Editorial Team · Last updated
Yamato arrived with the Reforge the Yamato update on June 12, 2026. It is the game's second 5-Star weapon after Explosion — a Katana-type blade crafted on Midgard Island instead of bought from a shop. This guide covers the full material checklist, Space element setup, and the fastest Red Orb farm route.
Yamato Overview
| Attribute | Details |
|---|---|
| Weapon type | Katana |
| Rarity | ★★★★★ (5-Star) |
| Craft location | Midgard Island (Dungeon Island) |
| Forge element | Space (recommended) |
| Meta role | Late-game DPS carry for Boss Rush and high-level islands |
Pair Yamato with a Katana-matching race like Vanir or universal Aesir once you hit level 500 rerolls.
Crafting Loop
Unlock Midgard Island portal ↓ Farm Space Invaders for Red Orbs ↓ Obtain Space forge element (shop or drop) ↓ Bank Katana Pieces + Fire Seeds ↓ Interact with Yamato pedestal on Midgard Island ↓ Craft Yamato
How to Reach Midgard Island
- Open any Teleport Portal in the overworld.
- Select Midgard Island (also called Dungeon Island).
- Climb the stairs after spawning in.
- Find the first circular pedestal near the Mastery NPC, Space Shop, and Boss Quest NPC — that is the Yamato craft station.
Yamato Crafting Requirements

How to Get the Space Element
Space is a weapon forge element, not a level-500 Element Reroll passive. You need it in inventory before Yamato can be forged.
- Space Shop — on Midgard Island, purchase with Holy currency.
- Space Invader drops — chance to obtain Space as a drop while farming Red Orbs.
Other forge elements can technically be used, but Space provides the best Yamato synergy. See the elements guide for Space vs combat Element rerolls.
Red Orb Farming (Space Invader)
Red Orbs are the longest farm gate — the recipe needs 1,000 of them. Space Invaders on Midgard Island are the most reliable source with a reported >50% drop rate per kill.
- Stay on Midgard Island and chain Space Invader clears.
- Stack Space Ore while you farm — it is the main post-craft upgrade mat for Yamato.
- Active codes may grant Space Chests or Holy Chests that shorten side farms.
Drop rates and respawn behavior are listed on the bosses guide.
After Craft — Space Ore & Soul Forge
Crafting Yamato is only the midpoint. Space Ore boosts katana damage, crit, and speed — buy it from the Space Shop with Holy Coins or collect it from Space Invader clears while you still need Red Orbs.
Move Soul Forge levels on Jotunheim tower level 1 with Soul Stones from the guardian rotation. Soul Forge 12 is the gate for Weapon Ascension on your finished carry — see the Ascension guide.
Master R Quest
Master R stands near the Yamato altar on Midgard Island. The quest asks you to land the R skill on bosses 1,000 times. Finishing it grants a large damage and HP bonus that stacks with Space Ore and Soul Forge investment.
Best Farming Order
- Unlock Midgard Island and buy or drop the Space forge element first.
- Farm Space Invaders until you hold 1,000 Red Orbs.
- Parallel-farm Katana Pieces on your usual boss route.
- Bank Fire Seeds alongside other endgame crafts (Explosion uses the same mat).
- Craft only when Space, Red Orbs, and all piece counts are ready — partial crafts fail.
- Upgrade with Space Ore, then push Soul Forge and Master R while farming Jotunheim keys.
