Skills and crafting

Skill progression, alchemy, gem recipes, weapon upgrades and manufacturing.

Skills

The table shows skill-progress thresholds, not a fixed number of successful actions. Progress earned depends on the skill, action and server XP settings. Unused progress can carry over after a skill increase. Character stats also limit skill training; see Character Development.

The first skill increase in a progress update needs more than the listed threshold. Further increases in that update need at least their listed thresholds. Mastery is capped at 100.

Current skill %	Next threshold (progress units)
0	11
10	33
20	75
30	137
40	219
50	321
60	443
70	585
80	747
90	929

Calculation details

For current mastery $s < 100$ , the next threshold is $Q (s + 1)$ , where

Q (t) = 10 + t + ⌊ t^{2} / 10 ⌋ .

Alchemy

Alchemy creates potions by mixing ingredients in an Alchemy Bowl, available from Kiora (Shopkeeper). Open the bowl, select the recipe, supply the displayed ingredients, and create the potion. Cosmetic potions cycle the selected appearance.

Unfreeze Potion	90	1 Werewolf Heart; 1 Slime Jelly; 1 Scorpion Sting; 1 Orc Leather; 1 Cyclops Leather	Removes Frozen status.
Sex Change Potion	95	1 Troll Claw; 1 Slime Jelly; 1 Skeleton Bones; 1 Ogre Heart; 1 Lump of Clay; 1 Cyclops Eye	Changes the character’s sex.
Super Power Green Potion	95	1 Werewolf Claw; 1 Troll Heart; 1 Slime Jelly; 1 Helhound Heart; 1 Cyclops Heart	Prevents stamina depletion for 30 minutes.
Ogre Potion	100	1 Troll Heart; 1 Ogre Claw; 1 Ogre Meat; 1 Ogre Heart; 1 Ogre Hair; 1 Ogre Leather	Summons an allied Ogre.

Restoration amounts are nominal and cannot exceed missing health, mana or stamina. Xelima reduces health-potion restoration.

Necklace crafting

For necklace crafting, see magic-necklace recipes.

Gem wares

Gem wares are intermediate crafting materials with a purity value.

Ware	Ingredients
Diamond Ware	1 Crystal; 2 Diamond
Crystal Ware	3 Crystal
Ruby Ware	1 Crystal; 2 Ruby
Emerald Ware	1 Crystal; 2 Emerald
Sapphire Ware	1 Crystal; 2 Sapphire

Magic gems

After a successful craft, gem purity varies with the purity of the eligible input wares. A single Stone of Merien contributes 100% purity. Equipped bonuses depend on the gem's stored purity.

Magic gem	Ingredients	Equipped effect
Magic Diamond	1 Crystal Ware; 2 Diamond Ware; 1 Stone of Merien	Physical Hit Ratio and Magic Hit Ratio bonus; 20 at 100% purity.
Magic Ruby	1 Crystal Ware; 2 Ruby Ware; 1 Stone of Merien	HP recovery bonus; 20 at 100% purity.
Magic Emerald	1 Crystal Ware; 2 Emerald Ware; 1 Stone of Merien	Magical Absorption bonus; 10 at 100% purity.
Magic Sapphire	1 Crystal Ware; 2 Sapphire Ware; 1 Stone of Merien	Physical Absorption bonus on armor hit locations; 10 at 100% purity.

Calculation details

Take the average of eligible input purities, rounded down, then calculate the lower base. The p values are the input purities, and n is their count:

A = ⌊ (p_{1} + \dots + p_{n}) / n ⌋, B = ⌊ 4 A / 5 ⌋ .

If $A - B > 0$ , add a uniformly selected integer from 1 through $A - B$ , including both endpoints. Otherwise the result remains $B$ . Thus a positive average produces final purity from $B + 1$ through $A$ , inclusive.

For the example inputs 80%, 85%, 95% and 100%, the average is 90%, the lower base is 72%, and the remainder is 18%. Final purity is therefore 73% through 90%, inclusive.

Magic Diamond: $⌊ (P + 1) / 5 ⌋$ Physical Hit Ratio and Magic Hit Ratio bonus.
Magic Ruby: $⌊ (P + 1) / 5 ⌋$ HP recovery bonus.
Magic Emerald: $⌊ (P + 1) / 10 ⌋$ Magical Absorption bonus.
Magic Sapphire: $⌊ (P + 1) / 10 ⌋$ Physical Absorption bonus on armor hit locations.

Here $P$ is the gem’s stored purity.

Armor gems

Gems fit equipment sockets.

Non-vortexed manufactured body armor, hauberks, leggings and headgear use the same completion thresholds:

Completion	Usable sockets
Below 50%	0
At least 50%, below 100%	1
At least 100%	2

Vortex Gems create a socket on eligible statted armor with no existing sockets. Use the table below for Vortex gem bonuses.

Gem family	Effect	Manufactured values by tier	Vortex values by tier
Rejuvenation	MP recovery bonus	8, 14, 19	4, 6, 8
Blood	HP recovery bonus	8, 14, 19	4, 6, 8
Mind	Magic Resistance bonus	8, 14, 19	4, 6, 8
Armor	Defense Ratio bonus	8, 14, 19	4, 6, 8
Enchanted	Magical Absorption bonus	2, 4, 6	1, 2, 3
Tactical	Physical Absorption bonus at the socketed armor location	3, 5, 7	2, 3, 4

Crafted item	Ingredients
Rejuvenation Gem (14)	3 Rejuvenation Gem (8); 1 Stone of Merien
Rejuvenation Gem (19)	2 Rejuvenation Gem (14); 2 Stone of Merien; 1 Stone of Xelima
Blood Gem (14)	3 Blood Gem (8); 1 Stone of Merien
Blood Gem (19)	2 Blood Gem (14); 2 Stone of Merien; 1 Stone of Xelima
Mind Gem (14)	3 Mind Gem (8); 1 Stone of Merien
Mind Gem (19)	2 Mind Gem (14); 2 Stone of Merien; 1 Stone of Xelima
Armor Gem (14)	3 Armor Gem (8); 1 Stone of Merien
Armor Gem (19)	2 Armor Gem (14); 2 Stone of Merien; 1 Stone of Xelima
Enchanted Gem (4)	3 Enchanted Gem (2); 1 Stone of Merien
Enchanted Gem (6)	2 Enchanted Gem (4); 2 Stone of Merien; 2 Stone of Xelima
Tactical Gem (5)	3 Tactical Gem (3); 1 Stone of Merien
Tactical Gem (7)	2 Tactical Gem (5); 2 Stone of Merien; 2 Stone of Xelima

Combining Experience Potions and Scrolls of Renown

The number in an Experience Potion's name is its experience bonus in percent; the number in a Scroll of Renown's name is the reputation it gives when used. To combine them, open a Crafting Vessel, select the matching recipe and drag 2 to 6 of that item into the vessel, with nothing else. The craft has no failure chance and merges them into a new item of the same kind.

Crafted item	Ingredients	Number of ingredients	Result
Experience Potion	Experience Potion	2–6	A potion whose bonus is less than the inputs' total. Refused, keeping the potions, if that bonus would be lower than the strongest input's.
Scroll of Renown	Scroll of Renown	2–6	A scroll worth the inputs' total reputation.

Calculation details

For $n$ Experience Potions whose bonuses add up to $s$ percent, let $S = s / 100$ . The combined bonus, rounded to the nearest whole percent, is

100 \cdot n^{0.8 - (1 - 1 / (1 + S)) / 10} \cdot S / n .

For example, 2 potions of 20% combine into a 34% potion, 3 into 46% and 6 into 76%.

Weapon upgrades

Ordinary stone-upgraded weapons, including manufactured weapons, have a maximum of +7. Special majestic weapons use separate rules.

A failed attempt while an ordinary weapon is already +3 or higher lowers it by 1; the item is not destroyed by that failure. Thus +2 is the failure floor. The corresponding existing-upgrade threshold for rare weapons is +5.

A Lodestar can raise the chance of a single attempt, up to a certain success; see Normal upgrades.

These are rounded success chances per eligible stone-upgrade attempt for nonrare melee weapons and bows. Manufactured weapons above 100% Completion get higher chances; the last column shows a weapon at 150% Completion.

Attempt	Normal chance (rounded)	Manufactured at 150% Completion
+0 → +1	35%	40%
+1 → +2	28%	33%
+2 → +3	23%	28%
+3 → +4	18%	20.5%
+4 → +5	15%	17.5%
+5 → +6	13%	15.5%
+6 → +7	12%	14.5%

Calculation details

Above 100% Completion, each 10% of extra Completion adds 1 percentage point to the chances up to +2 → +3, and each 20% adds 1 point from +3 → +4 on. Chances are single-precision values, so they differ from exact decimal percentages by tiny amounts.

Expected Stone of Xelima consumption

The table estimates Stone of Xelima use for repeated eligible upgrades of nonrare weapons, including manufactured weapons up to 100% Completion, assuming independent rolls. Counts are rounded to 2 decimals and are expectations, not guarantees; invalid attempts and separate special upgrade systems are excluded.

Target upgrade	Expected stones for this step	Expected stones from +0
+1	2.86	2.86
+2	3.57	6.43
+3	4.35	10.78
+4	25.36	36.14
+5	150.39	186.53
+6	1014.12	1200.65
+7	7445.25	8645.90

Calculation details

For repeated eligible attempts under the independent-roll model, let $p_{n}$ be the exact success probability for upgrading from $n - 1$ to $n$ , and $E_{n}$ the expected stones for that step:

E_{n} = {\begin{matrix} 1 / p_{n}, & n \leq 3, \\ (1 + (1 - p_{n}) E_{n - 1}) / p_{n}, & n \geq 4 . \end{matrix}

The cumulative expectation from an unupgraded weapon is $T_{n} = \sum_{k = 1}^{n} E_{k}$ .

For ordinary primary player physical attacks, the equipped weapon’s flat upgrade contribution is added after the base-damage stage and any applicable Berserk multiplier, before later combo additions, damage multipliers and mitigation. See Combat for the qualified physical-damage sequence.

See equipment basics and Dark Knight, Mage and Hero items.
