Currently Alchemy Stone Polishing/Enhancing system feels very outdated. The system is practically the same as it was in 2017, while the rest of the game has been improved alot. The main issue with the system is that it is extremely time consuming. All of that can be traced back to clicking Polished Alchemy Stones into Sturdy ones.
For example clicking a Destruction Alchemy Stone from Polished currently would take approximately:
- Splendid 600 Billion silver & 138 hours, Shining 16.2 Trillion silver & 3709 hours.
But if we now compare that to current equivalent of Force-Enhancing, which would be buying Sturdy Alchemy stones off the market place and selling the Polished:
- Splendid 1.7 Trillion silver & 10 hours, Shining 47 Trillion silver & 275 hours.
TL:DR
Force-Enhance option would reduce the amount of time it takes to enhance Alchemy stones by more than 10 times.
For some reason they decide to make shining impossible to craft and even splendid which is pointless, if its a pve game oriented, let people have the real chance to get gear upgraded fair not based on God rng or spending 10k hours gathering silver.
So for alchem stones the update will be:
Add pitty system but not guaranteed after 1000 clicks but for max 10 clicks.
Add a hidden crystal slot
Boost stats accordingly with current and future PVE spots, for Life skill too.
Make it achievable.
I ancitipate that future new armors will also enhace to Dec but expect Nov->Dec chance 0.00001% which will be the worst decision ever.
And make it more like other enhancing. The current clicking is so frustratingly inefficient and slow.
::Desperately attempts to get a whole crop of Alchemy stones up to Sturdy/Gold before they are all deleted::
seriously why remove the comon resting point of polished instead of the garbage pile level of "imperfect"
