Refined Magical Black Stone for Tuvala Enhancement

Refined Magical Black Stones are an inexpensive way to gain TRI. They do NOT use up your Failstacks or Enhancement Chance.

TIP: The best time to use Refined Magical Black Stone is when you are upgrading from DUO (II) to TRI (III) ehancement level, due to the scarcity of these rare stones. But if you find that these are plentiful for you right now, use them to gain PRI and DUO as well.

 

Enhancement Level Stones Required Success Rate
+15 → PRI (I) 10 100%
PRI (I) → DUO (II) 15 100%
DUO (II) → TRI (III) 20 100%
TET (IV) can’t
PEN (V) can’t
