Artifact equpiment refinment question

mrimsogoodmrimsogood Member Posts: 147 Arc User
So finally I got my 100 motes and gotten my Drowned Orb/Talisman
My question is for anyone that has done the quest, if I used my rank 35 main hand to refine my Drowned main hand, do I get a total of 200% RP or is it like normal x2 RP and get 160%

    Ok I get it now, my new weapon needs to be at rank 15 for me to get the x2 RP affect, explains why I was given a 3,000 RP gem
    IDK if that applies to all artifact equipment or just the Elemental Seed weapon

    I dropped my Rank 35 Elemental sword and knot into their respective Rank 1 Twisted and both ended up at Rank 32.

    Ditto. It's the consumed item that needs to be blue, not the new one.

    Yes, you received 80% of its value as it should be with double. If you did it with a belt or neck, you would get 40%.

    Nope, that's just the way it works with equipment. You will always only get 40% of the value of the fed item in the new item, color doesn't matter. Since weapons are always 2X rp, you get 80%.

    Regular Artifacts on the other hand, whole different ballgame.

    Unless there's a bug, the consumed weapon has to be level 15 (blue) to count for double XP


    "Starting with Underdark, any artifact weapon that has been upgraded to rank 15 or above will always refine into another piece of artifact equipment at double the rate, whether an event is running or not."

    The wording is so confusing

    The wording is so confusing

    This is what you should take from it...

    Anything you put into your weapon (main and offhand) should always be blue (level 15 or greater) and you can do it any time, no need to wait for double RP.

    Ok so the item I'm using as RP should be at least 'rare'

    Newbie question time. i'm missing something in this thread. If you get 40% (80% on 2x) of the consumed blue artifact's RP value, isn't it better to just feed the

    The final and get all the RP value?
    Or is the actual RP 140% (180% on 2x) ?

    At least it is something, I dislike that the double refinement for weapons and the double for the matching = 4x but still is only 80% of the original cost. 100% in my mind would be 0x. I put all those stones in there in the first place, why not give the value back at an even rate all the time?

    The wiki shows points needed to refine weapons (and everything else) to the next level and how much the item is worth for refining points at each level, the point here is if you put 100,000 refining points into your current weapon, it is only going to yield ~80,000 points when you use it to refine your new weapon. It's just a bonus to prevent you from needing to start from scratch again because you need like 4.x million RP to get to the max level.
