Oh isn’t this the sad truth about fixing things

Defect reversal catalyst seems to be broken

Thanks, should be fixed now. A few other catalysts were broken too :sweat_smile:

Small fixes applied, the number of known bugs atm is 0, keep them coming if you find any!

Absolutely phenomenal work, thank you for doing this.

I used it quite some time ago to piece together and test out the Lucient forging method. Happy with the results.

@wakeNbake Hi :wave: how much would you charge for a grapple and bow just like the ones in your screenshots?

Honestly man I have absolutely no idea. I’m not even sure I want to do that again, that was 4 times I put myself through 300 odd rounds of forging hell, this form of forging that is not even fun if I’m totally honest.

I made myself a pair of grapples and a matching bow each for a friend and I (although I really wanted to make them heavy projectile I was not prepared to go through the RNG again after getting these boons first attempt because that kind of luck never happens).

The rough price in materials including the bow was about 30 to 40k based on what I put in request baskets.

Honestly I wouldn’t bother with the bow, yes it’s nice, but for the price I would have to charge in order to retain my sanity while forging these the small advantage you would have over a well forged gem bow just doesn’t justify it in my eyes.

The grapples… they are worth it. I love em and will be forging myself another set once these ones wear down a bit. If you’re interested I can show you the method and you’re welcome to forge a set yourself.

I’m totally intimidated by the forging, lol. Even with this amazingly helpful guide… I think I’ll just let the pros handle it and buy the grapples for now : ) thank you for the reply!

No problem, and sorry to have to say no. I’d rather just share the method and let others have at it, haha.

I agree, Lucent forging is NOT fun.

I’m currently not noticing any bugs that I can tell currently though.

Good job! Your only the 3rd person ive seen make a clean 480 rank with the boons you wanted!

Thanks, I think it must have been your grapples that you were auctioning some time ago that showed me it was possible and therefore inspired me to figure out the method. Turns out getting the right boons is really not much harder, if at all harder, than any gem forge as you can take 2 gums with you. Figuring out how you do it defect free was really easy because there really is only one option for that right! haha

Actually there are at least 3 ways I know of that you can get a clean forge. Have you tried getting 3 boons (all different gums yet)? Dum dum dum challenge time :wink:! Im soooo glad to see you did it too! This is a super smart community.
It is a long process, and i noticed you mentioned 300ish rounds, not 600ish. Did you get by with a single slot for invig?

Yes I did 3 separate boon categories on the grapples, using again only 2 gums so it required one to be rolled at random, I chose the grapple range as my random as the other 2 are the only ones in their category.

And yes, done with only 1 set of invigoration. I suppose if I could give up a gum for 2 sets of invigoration and this would allow me to make 2 items at a time…

Oh yes. And no no, you should really only need 1 slot for invig. Love it! Question: are you under 300 rounds yet?
Also, did you do any order of ops optimization?

Yeah come to think of it, I would need 2 sets of boon compound and 2 sets of invig to do 2 items at once… definitely not attempting with 0 gums! haha

I did 2 grapples and 2 bows, they all turned out identical to the screenshots, except one grapple had a 6 energy defect, I could of got rid of that but it was my last round and didn’t want to risk it turning into a bad defect and I figured 250 energy vs 256 energy per use, who cares right!? lol

Now I’m sure one or even 3 of those forges came under 300 rounds by plenty… but this was a few weeks ago… let me see if I accidentally screenshotted any to show off to friends, haha.

Order of ops optimization?? You’ve lost me there sorry.

287 rounds on one slingbow, 299 on the other. Can’t remember on the grapples, and didn’t take any show off screenshots of the forge when finished, they were 10/10/10 so more boon points required overall than the bows… so maybe slightly more turns.

this thing has not received enough praise. keep up the good work!!!

You are correct it is not praised enough. Maybe there are more players like me who are too much intimidated by forging and al that it’s surrounds to appreciate all the efforts @Mayumichi and others have done to convince us to jump in.

Still thank you!

Great program!
It is very helpful for figuring out strategies for forging in less favorable conditions. Not sure what lucent falls into since I’ve not had a chance make a tool yet, but just playing around with 60% has allowed me to adjust my strategy so I can get closer to what I want. although, still working out the kinks lol.
