Normalization of Superior Refinement: Efficiency of Normal & Superior Refinement
Hi, it's efficiency-obsessed Riyeon
This post extracts the efficiency of Superior Honing and Normal Honing based on the previous efficiency calculator.
The title says 'Normalization'
Unlike the previous Superior Honing analysis,
This analysis includes Tailoring & Blacksmithing,
Including only Tailoring or Tailoring + Breath
I checked the changes under these various conditions.
Let's get straight to the PPT
There's a 3-line summary again today, so if you're in a hurry, go to the bottom!
Or there's a dedicated video. The video contains detailed explanations.













Several interpretations are possible, but
Normal Honing = High proportion of Guardian Stone or Destruction Stone Breakthrough Stone Shards, low proportion of Breath & Tailoring
Superior Honing = Abyssal Remnants & Gold &High proportion of Breath & Tailoring
But since you can't cover all the materials,
When compromising on the median value, considering both Breath and Tailoring & Blacksmithing,
[ Recommended Weapon Superior Honing Route ]
Weapon +14 -> Superior Honing Stage 10 -> Weapon +16~18 (Optional) -> Weapon Stage 40
[ Recommended Armor Superior Honing Route ]
Armor +16 -> Superior Honing Stage 10 -> +18 -> Superior Honing Stage 40 -> Armor +19
Weapon Superior Honing is OP,Save up and press the weapon first
The order has been slightly changed from the previous one.
That's how effective Tailoring & Blacksmithing were,
Considering the bound status, Superior Honing comes up a lot.
In particular, the efficiency of Blacksmithing stages 1-2 is very good,
In my personal interpretation,
If you're going to keep pressing Weapon Superior Honing,
Only use Blacksmithing or Tailoring on the Ancestral Turn for Armor & Weapon, and save Breath,
I think it's best to use it on Superior Honing stages 21-40.

3-Line Summary
1. Weapons:Weapon +14 -> Superior Honing Stage 10 -> Weapon +16~18 (Optional) -> Press in the order of Weapon Stage 40
2. Armor:Armor +16 -> Superior Honing Stage 10 -> +18 -> Superior Honing Stage 40 -> Armor +19Press in order
3. For stages 0-20, only put Blacksmithing & Tailoring on the Ancestral Turn and save Breath, then put Breath on stages 21-40

Since I've implemented almost all the efficiency for Superior Honing,
Now I can really complete the supporter
I'll sharpen the supporter too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
