I simply purchased the Old Metal Tool from Reginald Reggie Malone in Ward 13 for 1500 Scraps. The old man can be located sitting beside a chess table near Mudtooth. You will have to start a conversation with the old man first then you will be able to buy the tool.

Keep in mind that this is the main item used to make the Challenger Archetype Engram, so if you have this class as your primary Archetype, you won’t be able to buy it.

How To Use The Old Metal Tool?

After buying the Old Metal Tool, visit Wallace on the dock to create the Challenger Archetype Engram. You would need one Old Metal Tool, ten Lumenite Crystals, and a thousand Scraps for the Steel Enswell.

Now, once you have the engram, open the main menu and visit the Archetype page. Now equip the Steel Enswell, and you will begin with a new starting class. You can still keep the Challenger class as your primary, but you would need to start from level 1.
