Talk:Bitterblack Armor Lv.3/@comment-10823725-20130628211143

"**Needs extra confirmation, attempted it this 3 times with two different groups of armor, weapons, and novelties (two of each) at separate times** You should note that if you have more than one Lv.3 cursed weapon/armor in your inventory, the order in which they are purified is also predetermined. For example let's say you have two Bitterblack Armor Lv.3 drops; you purify one and it is a torso armor piece and second one turned out to be a helm piece. Even if you use Godsbane to retry and destroy one of them (or gift one to a hired pawn), it will always be the torso armor no matter which of the two you destroy - this means you MUST purify the torso armor before you can purify the helm. "

This happened for WepLv2 for me too. I was trying to get Hallowed Dragon. Both Sorcerers. What happened was I had 3x WepLv2 and they gave I think: Chilling Focus, Melting Focus, Melting Focus. Even with Godsbane it was the same. So I destroyed 2x WepLv2 and I got a Chilling Focus. I then Godsbane'd and destroyed all 3 WepLv2. I killed a monster and got a WepLv2 drop and purified it and I got a Chilling Focus. So this means your FIRST purification is fixed even if you get rid of the cursed item, however the later ones can change if you destroy them and get new cursed items.

This can help you save rift crystals. All I wanted was Hallowed Dragon, NOTHING else from WepLv2. What could have happened:

1) I had 4x WepLv2. They all gave Chilling Focus and 3x Bane Archistaff. If I Godsbane and keep all 3 WepLv2s, then I go kill an enemy to get a new WepLv2, I will have 5 WepLv2s. If I purify all of these, I might get: Chilling Focus, 3x Bane Archistaff, ANYTHING (e.g. Hallowed Dragon). But I'd have to waste purifying those 3 Bane  Archistaff doing this.

2) So I Godsbane and go back to when I had 4x WepLv2s. I then destroy 3 WepLv2s and purify my first one, which gives a Chilling Focus. This means when I pick up a new WepLv2 from a monster drop, it can be ANYTHING (e.g. Hallowed Dragon). It saves me from purifying the "middle" stuff.

Bare in mind you can always switch vocation if you want other items but I didn't want to.
