When to Refine & Add Best Shards

OFate - Heavens Tear

I am 95 now and pulling my gear together for level 100. I decided to go Nirvana Lunar and I'm going to do the third cast.

Once I do this - I have some questions (sorry but I was gone about a year from game)

- How > Do I get molders

- How > Do I know what is next ? (is the first mold the first series)?

- When > Should I begin refining and adding shards and what happens next molder/update/etc.. sorry confused by what happens here.


I've asked around but never seem to get a response.

Due to this, I've acquired my end game neck, adorn, rings, belt, cape and have been refining them.

Salari - Raging Tide

You get the molds in Warsong and Lunar vile bosses. The weapons only drop from Incarnate in Full Warsong. The other bosses drop armor molds. They all drop r9 and or Niv molds. You will also need badges which you get from the quest that the leader takes to kill the vile boss after you kill the normal boss. This applies in lunar as well. The molds and badges are bound to the account so you cant trade them. Since you are making lunar you can have someone else make them (for a fee most of the time) for you.

Refining and sharding. I would not go any further than +5 on the 2nd cast niv gear till you upgrade them to g16. On the shards, its really a personal decision. I have r9 third stage and i just put +50 hp (farmed in coa)shards till i can afford end game shards. Being a caster you could go either way, pdef or hp. At end game I think upto ref +10 vit stones are better, then at +11/12 josd are superior. I could be wrong tho, a friend told me even at +10 josd are better than vit stones.

hope this helps
