I got a lot of messages and questions about the first post so I went through, redid it, and found out more about the materials needed to make it.
First off there is the design, there are two designs as shown here. The reaper one is from scratch, while the priest staff is an example of retooling VM2 into VM3. The difference is a reduction of items needed to craft. It can save you time but not having them will not kill you.
The first item is sold from the BG merchant, it’s 4000 points and you need 13 of them, and 10 if you’re retooling VM2. These items can also be bought from the Alliance merchant for 12000 points.
The second item is sold from the KS merchant, it’s 6000 points and you need 15 of them, or 12 if you’re retooling VM2. These items can also be bought from the Alliance merchant for 18000 points.
The third item is crafted by someone who has specialized in alchemy, which means leveling it past the normal limit, you can only go past the normal limit on one craft. It's a basic recipe that requires idyllic leaf and a Alchemy kit. Very simple, but you need a lot of them, 1800 leafs for the weapon for example. This completed material can be traded.
The fourth item is bought by the KS merchant for 1000 credits, it can be crafted if you are specialized in Weaponsmithing or Armorsmithing, there are two designs so you can pick either. The items required are bought from Nexus, and Alliance. The item from Nexus costs 8000 points, and can be traded. The item from alliance also costs 8000 points and can be traded as well. You will need 6 of the nexus material, and 3 of the alliance material. This completed material can be traded.
Crafting the weapon takes 3000 of your 4000pp for crafting. This shouldn't be a concern as due to the high requirements to craft this gear it's impossible to have the next piece ready before your 4000pp is restored. This is not P2W, and items that restore PP will not be required to craft this.
In total, what you will need is 52000 BG points, 90000 KS points, 360000 Alliance points, and 720000 nexus points if you are crafting from scratch.
Forge pitch are not used for crafting this, neither are Superior Membranes. They are no longer used.
