Refining gear will grant you additional stats when equipping them. Refine is indicated by a + followed by a number in the beginning of the equipment's name.

Hollgrehenn is the NPC that can refine. He can be found in many major cities indicated by an anvil icon on the minimap and above the NPC.

Weapon Refine Bonus

Different level weapons and grades provides unique damage bonuses per refine.

Weapon ATK & MATK per Refine Bonus ATK & MATK per Refine Over Safety Bonus ATK & MATK from +15 → +16 Bonus ATK & MATK Per Refine > +16 P.ATK & S.MATK per Refine
Lv 1 2 1 ~ 3 16 1 0
Lv 2 3 1 ~ 5 32 2 0
Lv 3 5 1 ~ 8 32 2 0
Lv 4 7 1 ~ 14 48 3 0
Lv 5 - No Grade 8 0 0 0 2
Lv 5 - Grade D 8.8 0 0 0 2
Lv 5 - Grade C 10.4 0 0 0 2
Lv 5 - Grade B 12 0 0 0 2
Lv 5 - Grade A 16 0 0 0 2

Note:

  • ATK & MATK per Refine and P.ATK & S.MATK per Refine will be displayed in your status window.
  • Bonus ATK & MATK per Refine Over Safety will NOT be displayed in your status window.
  • Over Safety is defined as refine levels below 100.00% probabilty using Normal Ore
  • All damage bonuses are cumulative for the total refine.
  • Lvl 2 Armors and Lvl 5 Weapons don t break if you fail an upgrade below +10
  • If you don't use Blacksmith's Blessings from +10 onwards the equipment will break if the upgrade fails.

Armor Refine Bonus

For clarity, armors refers to not only the body armor equip, but also garments, footgears, shields, and headgears (top).

Armors provides additional Hard DEF per refine in relation to its current refine by the formula: Floor[( 3 + Current_Refine ) / 4]

For Lv 2 Armors, this Hard DEF bonus is increased by 120% while also granting 2 RES and MRES per refine.

Shadow Equipment

Shadow Equipment are special equipment which gives their own unique effects per refine:

Shadow Weapons grants +1 ATK & MATK per Refine. All other Shadow Equipment grants MHP + 10 per Refine. In addition to minor base stats, Shadow Equipment can also provide bonus effects listed in their description.

You can use the normal refining system or shadow hammers (buyable at Rayja):

Unlike normal armors, shadow accessories ( Ring and Pendant) can be refined.

Refinement Pity System

Each time you fail at the refiner, your chance for your next attempt with same equipment typ, level and refine will be increased.

Increase for every fail is 10% of base chance for refine level of up to +12, 5% base chance after +12

(e.g for an item +11 the base chance is 20% so 10% of it are 2% pity per refine attempt)

upon success on the unique combination of type,level,refine the bonus chance gets removed again.

you can have multiple bonus chances for various combinations at once

these pity attempts are saved per character

the UI always shows the correct chances (UI doesn't know decimals so 66.5% would be shown as 66%)

(A +11 item with 2x pity attempts)

Refining probabilities

Refinement-Pity-System

For any refinement at any refinement NPC a pity system is in place:

  • each time you fail at the refiner, your chance for your next attempt with same equipment type, level and refine will be increased
  • increase for every fail is 10% of base chance for refine level of up to +12, 5% of base chance after +12. (Note: base chance in increased for ores using the special chances)
  • upon success on the unique combination of type, level, refine the bonus chance gets removed again
  • you can have mutiple bonus chances for various combinations at once
  • these pity attempts are saved per character
  • the UI always shows the correct chances (though 66.5% would be shown as 66% as they UI doesn't know decimals)

Example: You fail refining a level 1 armor with elunium from 5 to 6 (70%) and afterwards from 4 to 5 (90%).
Your success chance on the next attempt for a level 1 armor refining from 4 to 5 will be 99% and from 5 to 6 it will be 77%.
