Everyone today to go over what is easily one of the biggest mistakes that people make with lost ark honing and it has to do with these additional lost ark honing materials. Now these lost ark honing materials here are gonna be what a lot of people call your juicing materials, these are for tier three solar graces, solar blessings and solar protection so that you use these when they end up saving you, the most resources and lost ark gold and on the other side of the scale, you don't end up wasting them, where it's not really going to be worth it, because these are quite valuable. 

Lost ark Gear Honing Guide- Three Different Types Of Honing In Lost Ark 

Today go through three different types of honing situations where you're going to either want to use them or not use them. 

Lost Ark Gear Honing- Armor

To go over first of all an armor that is mid-tier three, which is going to be these great honor leap stones here, then go over a low tier-three weapon which is going to be a weapon that actually the one before the 1370s the one that doesn't use great honor leap stones. The one that just uses regular honor leap stones, to go over a mid-tier 3 weapon. Obviously, you're going to want to know the explanation, you know going forward in the future, but the ones that are worth using these materials on are going to be the mid-tier 3 armors which are going gonna be the ones that use great honor leap stones like these right here. Of course, very importantly, the mid-tier three weapons which are like this one gonna be the ones that use great on leap stones, surprisingly even the low tier weapons, the ones that use regular honor leave stones are not really worth using juicing materials on anymore.  These juicing materials here are when you end up fully juicing out like you use the maximum amount of solar graces, solar blessings and solar protections, it's going to double your base honing success rate if you have a lost ark honing success rate of say 30 per cent, if end up using 12 of the solar braces, six blessings and two protections, it's gonna double it from thirty percent to sixty percent, so that's really nice. 

Another attempt at lost ark honing, because you go from 30 to 60 per cent basically using juicing materials is like saving an entire attempt worth of these materials, using juice materials is going to give you increased Artisans energy as well, you get that benefit too. Don't forget the actual gold cost with the fusion as well, you're going to save out, now to compare the value of all those juicing materials versus, the value of all these materials here, because doubling success chance, basically saving a full set of materials here, if you do that you're looking at about for 500 of these tier three guardian stones. The fusion materials are like 70 to 80 lost ark gold and 170 gold, when we add that all up, looking at about 1800 gold is the value of all these materials here. 

In order to do one attempt at lost ark honing, so basically looking at two attempts here without any of these juicing materials, would have to end up spending 1800 lost ark gold for the first attempt at 1800 lost ark gold for the second attempt each.  Actually, end up saving quite a bit by using juicing materials and for these mid armors here, the ones that use great on leap stones, it absolutely going to be worth, using these materials here. 

Lost Ark Gear Honing- Low weapons

For tier 3, you've got the low weapons and armors, which are going to be the ones that use your regular honor leap stones, and then you've got the mid armors and weapons which are going to be the ones that end up using your great honor leap stones. Using juicing materials for the weapon was still going to be worth it. If do the exact same example here like a low tier 3 weapon going from plus 9 to plus 10 and add up the materials here, 258 of these destruction stones are about 500 gold, the destruction stones are expensive, but you know 500 gold for those, then look at the leap stones. Now regular honor leave stones are not worth nearly as much as great honor leap stones. 

Now it's going to use the same amount of the juicing material as the mid-tier, so the same amount as like this weapon right here, it would use 12 of these solar braces, six solar blessings and two solar protection, so already kind of got the number for what that's all worth right there, and it's about 1150 gold.

In the case of the low tier 3 weapon, the one that just uses regular on leap stones, actually spending about 150 gold worth of juicing materials to only end up saving about a thousand gold worth of materials. 

If you have a bunch of extra of these, you know it's close enough to the point where it's not a disaster if you do it, but you know it's better to end up saving juicing materials for when you end up getting to your mid-tier 3 armors which are going to use great on leap stones because getting a lot more value there. 

Lost Ark Gear Honing- A slam dunk

A slam dunk, to lead off this point for your mid-tier 3 weapons which are going to be the weapons that use great honour leap stones, absolutely always use the additional materials, juice up the weapon. Using these materials is going to save you on these weapons here, it's going to use 12 graces, 6 blessings and 2 protections which already calculated is worth, you know 1150 to 1200 gold. 

Now if take a look at the cost of all the materials that it would take just to do one single attempt on a mid tier-three weapon from plus nine to plus ten. The one with great honor leap stones 830, destruction stones are gonna be you know 1500-1600 gold, these great honor leap stones is going to be close to 2 000 gold plus the fusion materials are going to be 70 to 80 gold. 

The actual cost of the lost ark honing as well is 320 gold, you are actually looking at close to 4 000 gold worth of materials, just to do one singular attempt from plus nine to plus ten. 

A lot of lost ark honing materials that you save out on, basically using the 150 to 1200 gold worth.  Juicing materials are going to save you virtually almost 4 000 gold worth of all the other materials that you need in order to hone a weapon.
