Weapon and Equipment Grades

At the Refiner Building Fortessa 169,192 Grade Enchanter is able to make the grading materials for you and will attempt to grade your equipment.


Weapon and Equipment Grades are a new system that works in conjunction with the Refinement System.
All equipment pieces start out without any grade.

Requirement:
Weapon with Weapon Lvl 5
Equipment with Armor Lvl 2
Atleast +11 Refinement level

Bonus:
Some items have additional effects based on the grade of the item.

Refinement bonus based on the Grade ( 10%, 30%, 50%, 100% )

Note:

On successful grading to a higher grade all refinement is reset to 0.

Refining Guide

Regular Equipment

From 0-10

Start off with a 6228.png Refine Ticket of your choice. The easiest to get is the +7 ticket, with +8 being harder to get and +9 being extremely rare (see here). After using the refine ticket, it is recommended to use Enriched Ores along with 6635.png Blacksmith Blessing to ensure the highest success chance at refining as these ores CAN BREAK THE EQUIPMENT so remember to make sure you have bsb (blacksmith blessing) selected. Alternatively, if you have an abundance of refine tickets and only a few bsb, you can use HD ores to attempt to get a weapon to either +9 or +10.

From 10 onwards

 Starting at +10, HD ores are the best resource available. HD ores are always safe, they will never break the equipment, but will instead reduce the refine rate by 1 and will not go below +10. If used with a bsb however, they will no longer reduce the refine rate. You do not need to use a bsb, they can be used to get to +14, but the cost is generally too high.

  • Note: Weapons have a 100% success chance to get to +11

Shadow Gear

There are only 2 viable options to refine shadow gears that are difficult to obtain: 23436.png Shadow Refine Hammer which will result in a random refine on the shadow gear from 1~10 with 10 being extremely rare, or 23926.png +9 Shadow Hammer which will bring your shadow gear of choice to +9. You can then use 6635.png Blacksmith Blessing and enriched ores to get the gear to +10. If the shadow gear you are refining can be easily farmed, you can use normal ores to try to get the gear to +7 before using the bsb.

Level 5 Weapon and Level 2 Armor Refine

Before +10 there are 2 options available:

1000334.png Enriched Etheredecon /1000333.png Enriched Etherenium

1000332.png Ethereocon /1000331.png Etherenium

Enriched offers a higher chance than normal ores. Do note that before +10 your weapon/armor can not break. Blacksmith blessing at this range will prevent the gear from going down a refine grade when the refinement fails.


After +10 you now have to use the following ores:

1000368.png Ether Bradium /1000370.png Ether Carnium

1000336.png HD Etheredecon /1000335.png HD Etherenium


The HD ores will offer a higher success chance than the normal ones, and does not guarantee the safety of the item. At this point using a blacksmith's blessing is mandatory as the weapon will be destroyed upon failure irregardless of the ore used.
