Reading the blacksmith table
Chances, costs and materials for every upgrade, in short.
What an item page shows
Every item that can be upgraded has a Blacksmith upgrades table, with one row per step (+0 → +1, +1 → +2 …).
- Chance: the blacksmith's base chance for that step. Green means a high chance, yellow medium, red low.
- Cost: the yang you pay the blacksmith for that step.
- Materials: the items required. Click any of them to see where to get it.
- Total yang: what you have paid in total from the first upgrade up to that step, if every attempt succeeds.
At a glance
The At a glance box next to the tooltip sums up the whole road to the highest upgrade: the total yang, the chance to succeed every step on the first try, and the full list of materials you need.
Evolutions
For some items the last step does not add a plus but turns the item into a new one. The Step column then shows the item it becomes.
