Getting the War Wagon
The quest chain, step by step:
- Meet Old Man Gen at his carriage near the Smuggler's Tunnel in the Village of Lu and take on his quests.
- In Pangzhen, find his wife in Old Man Gen's house and take the Dusty Old Wooden Comb from her body.
- Meet Old Man Gen again near the Frozen Lake Dock in the north-west of Meigu Lake. He gives you the War Wagon there before he dies.
GamesDB files it as found in Meigu Lake with a map entry, and the Frozen Lake Dock sits in the north-west of that region on the world map.
What it does in a fight
GamesDB's day-one numbers:
| Level 1 | Level 60 | |
|---|---|---|
| Damage | 310 | 2,139 |
| Guard break | 208 | 1,435 |
Every Phantom Edge multiplies its stats by 6.9 over 59 upgrades.
GamesDB names no move for the War Wagon, only its stat line. The independent VG Times guide says what it does: hold R2 to summon the wagon and drive it forward, ramming enemies in its path, steer it during the charge, and it consumes Remnant Spark continuously while it runs.
Traversal
The same guide also uses it as a traversal tool along the frozen shoals. GamesDB's own Exploration list does not include the War Wagon, so treat that one as a community note rather than a database entry.
Taking it to level 30

What the upgrade ladder costs
| Band | Material | Remnant Dust per upgrade |
|---|---|---|
| +1 to +9 | Darkfire Charcoal x2-8 | 1,024-5,120 |
| +10 to +19 | Blazing Darkfire Charcoal x2-8 | 5,632-10,240 |
| +20 to +59 | Searing Darkfire Charcoal x2-32 | 11,264-100,864 |
The full +1 to +59 ladder costs 2,184,704 Remnant Dust. Phantom Edges are upgraded on their own track, separate from your Blades.
Soul Tempering
Free Rein — Old Wooden Comb x1 and 5,000 Remnant Dust. The Fextralife community wiki says it increases the damage dealt based on the distance the wagon travels, up to 50%, and that the distance counter resets after you hit an enemy.
