Development Update: Item Refinement System

We're currently building out the item refinement system, and we want to give you a look at how it's shaping up.

Refinement lets you upgrade your equipment from +1 all the way up to +20 using Soulite materials. There's a catch though — the Soulite you use must be of equal or higher grade than the item you're trying to upgrade. Attempting to refine with an inferior material will be rejected outright, keeping the economy balanced.

On top of that, Protection Scrolls can be consumed during an attempt to prevent your item from losing levels if the upgrade fails. We're working on ensuring the failure and success rates feel fair and rewarding without making high-level refinement trivial.

All validation and material consumption happens server-side, so there's no way to manipulate outcomes client-side. More details on rates and materials will be shared closer to launch.
