The surprise was when the cover wore off my weapon was +7. So the RoP II takes the total seven souls gold effect in, that is, it treats my weapon like a +12, but the +3 cover is not changed but the weapon + is.

Book of Melding - This is just a plain book of melding used to put covers on without any + on this book of melding. If you had a +15 weapon and you just want to put a cover on just for looks.

Covers, Uniforms, Gang Outfits - In the Item Mall are numerous covers to aid you in upgrading or if you just want something different from the usual armor. The items that say level 3 or level 17 is the level for that armor now.

So buying level 3 Japanese armor is not worth it as when you get to level 10 you would want armor with more protection.

Also, new western outfits and Samba outfits are available in that they have head cover that you can meld. The other outfits do not have head cover to meld.

NOTE: Chaos Smelting Stones are expensive and hard to come by. I suggest saving them for the level 85 weapon and armor set. You can always shop around and start pricing armor and weapons in the Level 85 level.
