Reforge System

Forge hammer

The Reforge System is a custom NM-hunting + armor-upgrade pipeline that takes you from base AF/Relic/Empyrean armor to +3 versions through three parallel tracks.

Summary

Talk to the Reforge Spawner at Gwora Corridor (10, 0, 0). Pop one of three NM pools. Each kill drops a random base armor piece from that pool's set plus marks for that set. Take base pieces to the Reforge Vendor at (15, 0, 0) to upgrade base → +1 → +2 → +3 using the same marks.

How it works

Three parallel tracks. Each track ties one NM pool, one currency, and one armor set together:

Track NM pool Currency Armor set
AF Sky Gods AF Marks Job's AF/Artifact armor
Relic Unity NMs Relic Marks Job's Relic armor
Empyrean Abyssea NMs Empyrean Marks Job's Empyrean armor

Every NM kill awards:

  1. One base piece. Each drop has a configurable chance of being for the killer's main job (currently 50%); the remainder fall back to a random piece across every job in the catalog. When you get a job-matched drop, your chat message includes (main-job match!).
  2. Marks for that track's currency.

The Reforge Vendor sells progressive upgrades: trade in a base piece + marks for +1, trade +1 + marks for +2, trade +2 + marks for +3.

Roughly how many kills for a full +3 set?

With the 50% main-job bias and the current mark/cost values, expect ~50-80 NM kills to complete a 5-piece +3 set on one specific job. Marks accumulate alongside drops, so the bottleneck is rolling the right slots — the bias makes each kill ~11× more likely to land on a piece you want.
