  • However, after the Central Market update, the price gap between equipment which were not upgraded and equipment which were upgraded to ultimate gradually increased due to the amount of equipment upgraded to blue grade rarely being sold or purchased.

1.  Equipment upgraded to blue grade have been removed.
   – The previous upgraded blue equipment have been changed to the yellow grade (ultimate) equipment.
2. Equipment upgraded to yellow grade can no longer be bought or sold at the Central Market.

3. With grades 1, 2, and 3 Reform Stones, you will have a chance to upgrade to yellow grade (ultimate) equipment.
4. When Crafting from the Workshop, you can obtain the original crafting equipment and have a chance to obtain yellow grade (ultimate) equipment.
