Refinement Overview
Refining is the process of upgrading equipment to enhance its power. Refined gear provides additional stats and is identified by a plus sign (+) followed by a number (e.g., +7 Knife).
The primary NPC for refining is Hollgrehenn, who can be found in most major cities. Look for the anvil icon on the minimap.

Refining armor (Body Armor, Garments, Footgear, Shields, and Headgears) provides a bonus to Hard DEF. The formula for this bonus is: Floor[(3 + Current Refine Level) / 4]
.
Additionally, Level 2 Armors receive a special bonus of +120% Hard DEF, plus an additional +2 RES and +2 MRES for every refine level.
Shadow Equipment Bonus
Shadow Equipment provides unique bonuses per refine level.
- Shadow Weapons: +1 ATK & MATK per refine.
- Other Shadow Gear: +10 Max HP per refine.

Refinement Pity System
How the Pity System Works |

Each time a refinement attempt fails at an NPC, a "pity" bonus is added to the success chance of the next attempt for the same equipment type, level, and refine level.
