Posted December 20, 2022 Hi. So after the last 2 days of constant spam creating pickaxes in the hopes of a rare i was starting to get burned out. So i decided to go mining looking for tin in one of my caves. Well 3 mining actions in and that rare i was trying for popped up as stone shards. After a brief facepalm moment i decided to try and make the best of what i got. So later today when i get off work im going to try and turn it into a rare well or fountain in the hopes of selling it. Is it worth it? Or should i try and save up any rare shards i get and bulk sell them as is? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 20, 2022 They say there is 1/100 chance that on last improve action that consumes material that rarity will transfer. Me personaly never have managed to do it, and seriously doubt if thats even true since there is on MOI upon that last imp... On other hands I spammed alot of rares by creation. In my opinion it's not worth it trying with imping with rare mats, but if you're not that desperate for 10-20c which is the price on SFI if i'm not mistaken, try your luck and prove me wrong xD I also think that saving them for bulk selling is bad idea, if you don't want it, just sell it right away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Over the years thousands of rare materials I have used up while imping stuff to consume the material and have never ever ended up with a single rare.. The only use rare materials provide to me now is free water/food/nutrition bars or wound healing after saccing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 20, 2022 (edited) You generally have better odds using a rare in the creation process rather than the improving process for having that rare part/material create a rare object. The key is using the rare to create something that uses the entire piece, not just part of it. You odds basically then becomes 1/total number of parts needed to create the final item. Unfortunately that's difficult for a rare stone shard, as walls/fences/buildings can never be rare. Perhaps sell it?
