Currency, Crafting and Refining

Overview

These items can help you fine-tune builds, get specific bonuses or exponentially improve your item power.

• Refining bonuses apply up to +30 unless specified otherwise, items can be refined up to +100 for extra atk/def.
• It's Impossible to lose an item by failing refining. You can however lose refine levels up to half the current level.
• Different Currencies have different drop rates.
• crafted gear are weaker than higher instance/quest items, but they can be worn from Lv1 and most don't have class restrictions, and are also easy to make,

Currency

• Most currencies can be crafted or traded with the old lady npc on the East Wing.
• Currency has 7 tiers of rarity, you are guaranteed to get each tier eventually, and when a tier drop is determined it has a chance of being the item.
• Higher monster levels give currency slightly more frequently.
• Each tier has its own chance of rolling, meaning you can get a T1 then a T3 in a row.
• For every mob that you don't drop a currency, it increase the odds you'll get a currency on the next. these odds are very slightly increased if you're a VIP player and are different for each currency tier.
• This guarantees every currency is farmable and obtainable, even the rarest ones, eventually.

Currency Drop Determination (It's a complicated but balanced system):

Every currency tier has a determined base value roll, every monster killed decreases the rolls needed for a drop.

• Tier 1: 18.000 (Sort of common)
• Tier 2: 72.000 (4x less likely than Tier 1)
• Tier 3: 144.000 (8x less likely than Tier 1)
• Tier 4: 288.000 (16x less likely than Tier 1)
• Tier 5: 576.000 (32x less likely than Tier 1)
• Tier 6: 1.152.000 (64x less likely than Tier 1)
• Tier 7: 11.152.000 (640x less likely than Tier 1)

There is a pity system where every time an item doesn't drop from that tier, it gets easier, guaranteeing it eventually happens, this progress is faster with higher level monsters. Monster level also ensures better rolls for each tier. The tiers are separated and dropping a T3 doesn't reset progress on T6 for example

There a chance for a "Super Lucky Drop" where you get an item and it doesn't reset the pity system, ensuring a faster next roll.

On average according to staff, a T7 drop should require in a worst case 78.000 kills to trigger a pity drop, varying according to monster strenght.

Charms

All charms can be obtained with random drops, they have quality and mods.

• Charms have different rarities, Pegasus Charm for example is only obtainable from Charm Boxes at a low rate.
• It's important to balance the benefits of the mods with higher quality for better charm bonuses, sometimes having lower quality with better mods outweight the % bonus/quality.

Stones

You can have a sub job stone and a crafted stone at a time.

Unstable rift monsters drop the stone shards to craft

• Different Classes have different stone bonuses. It has enchants according to the job progression of your subclass along with stat bonuses. Transcendent classes have an extra HP and base level bonus.
• Crafting stones requires 20 shards, and 10 subsequent shards for each upgrade.
